Fat Joe says he’s unhappy with the ongoing feud between Rick Ross and DJ Envy. The New York rapper addressed the beef during a video posted on his Instagram page, Monday. He called both of them “beautiful” people.

“Don’t like what’s going on with Rick Ross and DJ Envy,” Joe said. “Don’t like it. I love ’em both. Beautiful men in their own right, successful, do their thing. I don’t like where it’s going. I know I’ve had my share of beefing with people, but I don’t like it because they’re both beautiful, beautiful people.”

Envy and Ross have been feuding for weeks during the run-up to both of their car shows. Ross initially took a jab at the Breakfast Club co-host during his interview on Drink Champs. He remarked that Envy was “never on my level” when it comes to hosting car shows. From there, the two traded shots back and forth online.

“DJ Envy, you just gave me a good idea. I just told the people who are coming to clean up my pool to hold on ’cause I said Envy and his seven sons can come over here, y’all can handle this pool for the pool party, July 2nd,” Ross taunted in one Instagram Story video. On Monday morning’s episode of The Breakfast Club, Envy arrived on set in a correctional officer uniform to troll Ross. “I could tell he was rattled,” Envy said of Ross’ response to his comments. “So I wore this today to make him feel a little more comfortable.” Envy went on to joke about Rick Ross’ boss being a prison warden in Miami.

DDG Believes All His Haters Are “Ten Times Broker” Amid Kankan Beef

If you’re not getting RIAA certifications of flexing seven-digit account numbers, DDG doesn’t want to hear your hate. Moreover, the rapper recently faced a spat with fellow MC Kankan, who called the former’s new track “f***ing a**.” In response, the YouTube star searched for the underground rhymer in the RIAA’s list of certifications, found nothing, and posted a screenshot of it above his tweet. Whether you think his rap career has been corny or creative, it’s no secret that he’s on the rise. As such, he also expressed on the social media platform that he won’t respond to criticism that’s not coming from his level of success.

“I only get hated on by n***as that’s 10x broker than me,” DDG tweeted. “From now on if u can’t show at least million cash liquid in your account i’m not responding to anything negative.” Unfortunately for him, a lot of shade thrown his way stems from circumstances outside of his rap career. For one, his relationship with Halle Bailey fell under much speculation and scrutiny recently as breakup rumors surged. Still, they seemed to persevere through it all, despite the heavy toll it takes to be so discussed on social media, as The Little Mermaid star expressed.

“The biggest thing I’ve learned in dating when it comes to dating in the public eye, is that everybody’s gonna have an opinion about you, whether it’s good or bad,” she reflected concerning her relationship with DDG. In fact, some referred to him as an “E-list rapper” after rumors swirled, adding insult to injury. At least he laughed it off and clearly continued to hone his talents. “I’ve had this since I was younger,” Bailey continued. “I think because I’ve grown up, kind of in the public eye, people think they have this sort of… I don’t know, that they can say what they feel about my life. Like they do with everyone in the public eye. But I’ve realized, for me, I just go with my heart.

“It’s hard when you’re in the public eye because social media is also a part of your work, it’s a big part of what I do!” she went on. “I have to set healthy boundaries for myself, ‘cuz just like anyone, if you see all these people saying whatever they want about you, your life, what you choose to decide… That could take a toll on anyone, so I just have to choose to step aside and not look at any of that. Just live in the real world. That’s what makes me happy.” For more news and the latest updates on DDG, come back to HNHH.

Lil Durk Offers 6ix9ine $50 Million To Get In The Ring

Lil Durk just teamed up with J. Cole for a song called “All My Life.” Overall, fans are loving this track as it is showcasing a new direction for the artist. Although, it came at a cost as Durk’s album has officially been delayed. Fans were expecting a project, however, it never came. Now, fans will have to wait, although based on what we heard last night, that wait will be worth it. After all, Durk is one of the biggest artists in hip-hop, and all of his albums seem to hit near the top of the charts.

With this new direction also comes a new mentality. Lil Durk has been in his share of feuds, but now, he wants to put them to bed. In fact, last night, he decided to share some messages with none other than 6ix9ine. 6ix9ine has said some terrible things to Durk and has consistently made fun of King Von’s death. However, Durk believes there is a solution to this problem. “I don’t want you hurt or dead you a kid from the burbs I got 50 million my own money without help to fight you on tv in dubi, we can double the money 3 rounds,” Lil Durk wrote in an Instagram DM. He also said “stop the violence,” which is ironic given his offer.

Lil Durk Lets His Challenge Be Known

Unfortunately, 6ix9ine doesn’t want to go to Dubai. Moreover, he doesn’t even want Durk’s money. “It’s so funny because I know you on album press run,” 6ix9ine wrote. “U need anything to promote this album since nba young boy not biting the bait. But I wanna fight you for now money pussy. For Free. Come to Miami let’s get a hotel room and just throw down 1 on 1.” Subsequently, Durk told the rainbow-haired rapper to “enjoy his day” and that he has no interest in going to a hotel.

There are probably dozens of boxing promoters throughout the United States who would drool at the thought of putting on a fight like this one. However, it is clear that it is a pipe dream. If it were to happen, let us know who you think would win, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

LL Cool J Reflects On Canibus Beef: “I Think It Was More My Fault”

LL Cool J has admitted that his beef with Canibus was his own fault. He reflected on his feud during a recent episode of the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast. Despite their beef reaching its height back in the 1990s, the two only made amends in 2014.

“With him, I think it was more my fault because I could have addressed him a little differently,” LL said of Canibus. “He wanted to get a tattoo like mine. I could have said, ‘Good luck with that,’ but I didn’t understand that path at that time. I wasn’t there yet mentally so I was like, ‘The fuck you mean you gonna get something like me?’ That shit sounded crazy to me at that time.”

From there, he explained that he was too young for his brain to be fully developed. He continued: “My brain was not developed, I was not developed like that…Now I understand it was a compliment, he was just showing love and, you know, admiration. That’s why I don’t go at him now or try to hurt these dudes. I’m not gonna play that.”

LL Cool J and Canibus began feuding back in the 1990s, trading several diss tracks and subliminal shots. It started with the release of LL Cool J’s “4, 3, 2, 1,” on which Canibus is featured. Canibus had initially wanted to rap, “L, is that a mic on your arm? Let me borrow that,” referencing LL’s tattoo, but the rapper took offense. LL then added in his verse, “The symbol on my arm is off limits to challengers / You hold the rusty sword, I swing the Excalibur.” They eventually squashed the beef on stage at Barclays Center in Brooklyn for the”Christmas In Brooklyn” event.

LL Cool J On “Million Dollaz Worth of Game”

LL’s interview on Million Dollaz Worth of Game comes ahead of the release of his highly-anticipated 14th studio album, which will be produced entirely by Q-Tip. He also debuted a new single from the project, “The Force,” on Rock The Bells Radio last week.

Azealia Banks Adds Australia To Long List Of Feuds

Azealia Banks has added an unexpected new entry to her long list of beef: the entire country of Australia. The rapper took to Instagram to express her dissatisfaction with the handling of her single “New Bottega” in the land down under. According to her, a subpar remix of her master track was released in Australia instead of the original version she preferred. She goes on to discuss her record contract before criticizing the Australian music industry more broadly.

“I don’t think they realize how unimportant they are as far as music culture goes… they’re deluded with the idea that their whiteness makes Australia an A Market, when it’s truly a C-D market,” Banks said on her Instagram. “Brazil is a MUCH more important market for music than australia lmao. (this is mostly because Australia has an extreme dearth of internationally appetizing talent outside of Kylie Minogue, INXS & AC/DC, {tame impala is just cheesy to me, and wolfmother is excellent – but clearly an American rock tribute band}.”

Label Problems, Bigger Beef, And New Music

Australia isn’t the only feud Azealia Banks has had this year. She has also gone very public in her beef with former label, Parlophone. The rapper had barely been signed with the label for three months before leaving. In November 2022, she announced the signing via social media. At the end of January this year, she said she was leaving because the label was full of “fragile white liars.” She also called the label’s roster “corny losers.” Even if she had changed her mind about leaving, there was likely no going back after those comments. It’s another bridge burned for Banks.

Although the rapper is currently independent, that doesn’t mean that she isn’t going to release music. In a recent interview with Dazed Magazine, she spoke about the music she has been working on. Apparently, Banks has already recorded 75+ songs for two new albums. Additionally, she said that her opinion of her voice has changed. “My voice has definitely matured a lot, and I feel really sexy when I sing now,” she said in the interview. “When you’re younger, especially when you come from theatre like I do, you’re kind of listening to yourself as you sing to make sure that you sound pretty. But I don’t care about sounding pretty. Because I’ve realized that I’m f*cking gorgeous.” What do you think of Banks’ latest beef? Let us know in the comments!

Styles P Says Biggie Wanted To Squash Beef Between Diddy & The LOX Before He Died

Styles P says The Notorious B.I.G. said he wanted to squash the beef between The LOX and Diddy on the night that he died. The rapper recalled Biggie’s intentions during an interview with The Art of Dialogue published on Friday.

“We literally had just left — we was going somewhere else, and then, just heard it was shots,” he said. “That was just really fuckin’ crazy, like, you know what I’m sayin’? And we were just finished talkin’ to him about — we was having some kind of rift with Puff, and he was basically kind of just, like, trying to guide us through it … telling us, chill out, you know? He’s gonna hold it down when he get back.”

Styles P With Diddy

He continued: “That shit was devastating. That was our big bro. He was really cool. That’s why we made ‘We’ll Always Love Big Poppa.’ We held him in a very high regard.” In the immediate wake of Biggie’s death, the feud between The LOX and Diddy only grew worse. As The LOX wanted out of their deal with Bad Boy Records, they began a “Free The LOX” campaign. Eventually, Styles P even threw a chair at Diddy during a meeting at the company’s offices.

Styles P previously reflected on that incident during an interview with HipHopDX in 2020. “The moment with tossing the chair at Puff was a combination of being really fucking stupid and really fucking angry,” he revealed. “I think for me, Big was always the barrier, and the mediator, and the middle person. He was always able to make things make sense to me. So I think when Big passed, it was just kind of really hard for me to deal with it and see certain things.” He added: “We don’t regret anything at all. It was like us saying you want some of this old man.” Check out Styles P’s latest comments on the death of The Notorious B.I.G. below.

Cardi B Shuts Down La La Anthony Beef Rumours: “She Has Helped Me A LOT!!!”

Last evening’s Met Gala appeared to go down without any drama or major incidents – though there were plenty of cats (and a cockroach) on the red carpet. On hosting duty for Vogue was La La Anthony, who spoke with a number of celebrities about their designer outfits for the evening. Among them were Ice Spice, as well as Cardi B, who’s been friends with the Power actress for some time now. Of course, it’s well known that Anthony is popular within the Hollywood circle, as she has close relationships with stars like Kim Kardashian and Ciara, just to name a few.

Despite her obviously being well-liked, internet trolls still tried to start beef between the Invasion of Privacy rapper and La La after seeing a video of their interview on Twitter. “It’s so obvious that she can’t stand her😭💀,” one of them wrote, getting attention from Cardi herself, who didn’t hesitate to clear up the speculation with a quickness. “Not true,” she wrote on Tuesday (May 2). “I talk to La La more than any celeb… She knows everything!!! If you ever need something she knows all the contacts,” the mother of two gave the socialite her flowers.

According to Cardi, Anthony has “helped [her] A LOT!!!” amid her come-up in the industry.

N.O.R.E. Responds To Cam’ron Amid Joe Budden Beef: “Me & You Are Friends”

N.O.R.E. has responded to Cam’ron’s complaints on social media about a recent episode of The Joe Budden Podcast. The Dipset rapper believed N.O.R.E. and Joe Budden to be making fun of him while discussing other rappers who have ventured into podcasting. Cam recently launched a sports talk show titled, It Is What It Is.

“Me and you are friends from the 90s. You have my real life phone number. You hung out with me for days before you did Drink Champs just to make sure I was the same yalla that you know,” N.O.R.E. said in a tweet posted on Sunday night. “If you thought at any time I was going at you, Why would you go to the internet 1st?”

As for the comments that upset Cam, N.O.R.E. remarked during the interview with Budden: “You know what’s crazy? I’m looking at these rappers trying shows now—you know, rappers from our era—and they are so failing… They doing sports shows, they doing comedy shows. They talkin’ about, ‘Yo, I’m up. I’m just doing this for fun.’ No, you are not!” Budden laughed in agreement: “It’s great to see people fail … You can’t take the blueprint and hire different contractors. They sellin’ ass out here, huh?”

“Damn @therealnoreaga told you I couldn’t trust you. Lolol. Im just fucking wit ya,” Cam wrote online afterward. “But what other rapper from the 90’s got the sports and cooking show? U know u my n***a for life. But ya man hoe buddons threw u under the bus on the very Nx episode said he didn’t know who u was talking bout. I don’t give a fuck how his numbers is N.O. Stay away from that crack head!!!!” From there, Budden fired back at Cam in his own post. “Now that n***a know he too sensitive to do this w me,” he wrote. “Chill before I feel like playin’ back & you start makin’ calls again. Focus on your suits and pink set, that ‘crackhead’ lapped you lonnggggggggggg ago.”

Cassidy Says He’s Not Interested In Battling Meek Mill

Cassidy says he has no interest in taking on Meek Mill in a rap battle, despite their past beef. He discussed the state of his feud with his fellow Philadelphia rapper during an interview on Vlad TV. In doing so, Cassidy explained that he doesn’t view Meek Mill as a battle rapper and that he has so many other things going on in his career, that he probably wouldn’t be interested either.

“Salute to Meek, but, he ain’t battle rap,” he said to outlet. “Like, maybe he battled back in the day to try to get on, like to try to get people familiar with what he do. There’s a bunch of people that did that. But still, they wouldn’t consider themselves battle rappers.”

He continued: “Maybe that’s the cloth he was cut from back then, but it’s been so much time, and him doing other shit, and on music, and then a different bag, that I’m not even sure if he’s interested in battle rapping. … We kinda already had our own little battle, but I’m not interested in battling nobody. Long as the business is right, they could pick whoever I battle.”

The beef between Cassidy and Meek Mill began over a decade ago at this point. Back in 2013, things reached a high point when the two traded a series of freestyles aimed at dissing one another. Despite his animosity with Meek Mill, Cassidy recently revealed that he once tried to sign him. During a recent interview with the African Cultural Art Forum (ACAF), he explained that he simply couldn’t offer Meek what he needed at the time. “It wasn’t like I was super connected to the machine,” he said. “I was moving towards the independent direction. So I was offering him distribution, but more in like an independent way, [however] maybe he wanted to be more on the major side.” Check Cassidy’s discussion with Vlad TV below.

Chlöe Lashes Out At DJ Envy On “The Breakfast Club”: Watch

The response to Chlöe Bailey’s debut solo album, In Pieces, has likely been far more mixed than the 24-year-old anticipated. Regardless of what critics have had to say, however, she’s carried her head high and performed with all of her might across the country over the past few weeks. She still has a few concerts left, but before taking the stage again, Bailey found time in her busy schedule to appear on The Breakfast Club with hosts Charlamagne and DJ Envy.

Unfortunately for the Atlanta native, she was left feeling fed up with the latter when he didn’t know the names of songs from her new project. “Listen… Come here. Did you download the album?” Bailey asked Envy on air this morning. “I streamed it,” he confirmed. “Ok, so what was your favourite song?” the R&B starlet pushed. After a moment of undeniably awkward silence, she popped off on the media personality. “You keep wanting to throw [Charlamagne] under the bus! Nope, nope. Tell me your favourite song,” Chlöe insisted.

Chlöe Isn’t Here for Disrespect

“I’m a DJ, so I play the record in the club,” Envy explained to his guest. “So, which one?” Bailey asked again, ignoring his attempt to avoid her question. “Which one did you play from ‘In Pieces’? Because ‘Have Mercy’ isn’t on ‘In Pieces,’” the performer continued to call the 45-year-old out while noting that her 2021 single will appear on the album’s upcoming deluxe cut. In wake of the comedic footage circulating online, many social media users are running to stream the multi-talent’s debut solo album. Elsewhere, others have been comparing her to Nicki Minaj for fearlessly calling male media personalities out on their disrespect.

Aside from Envy’s attitude today, many music lovers have also criticized the “For The Night” singer for collaborating with Chris Brown on her project. Regardless of the haters, the two have had each other’s backs over the past few weeks as they focus on their own unique endeavours. Tap into Chlöe’s first appearance on The Breakfast Club below, and tell us if you think DJ Envy’s behaviour was disrespectful in the comments below.
