Saweetie Tears Up Recalling Her Come-Up Before Making It In Hip-Hop: Watch

by

Almost every person on the planet knows that making it in the music industry is slim to none. However, if you look a certain way, some people are automatically going to assume that were set up for success. It seems that stigma gets placed on women especially from trolls and haters online. Unfortunately, the saying “sex sells” is quite accurate, at least in the United States. It is probably safe to assume that Saweetie puts up with people coming after her throughout her now established career.

But those rumors should be shut down now, especially after Saweetie got real about her come-up. The hitmaker joined the Brown Bag Mornings show on Power 106 to discuss her rough situation. In the first clip below (second slide), Host Letty Peniche gave credence to Saweetie’s struggles, mentioning how she was living out of her car. The callback to those times got Saweetie pretty emotional.

The “NANi” creator admitted that she was too prideful to tell her loved ones her couch-to-couch living scenario. Her friends were more than accommodating, offering her to live with them. However, she did not want to be a burden. Saweetie was able to make light during the interview saying that when it was time to party with them, she did not have to go home. Eventually, she built up enough money to rent a room and that is roughly the time she began to write “ICY GIRL.” On it she raps, “Looking in the mirror, I thank God for what I’m ’bout to be.” Saweetie told the interviewers that lyric made it in the song because she was uncomfortable lying about where she was in life. “I can’t even pop s***,” she said. Now, she can and we are so proud of her for coming so far!

What are your thoughts on Saweetie getting emotional about her come-up in the music industry? Is she one of the best female MC’s we have right now, why or why not?

Cardi B Grinding On Offset At Daughter Kulture’s Birthday Party

by

Cardi B and Offset are one of hip-hop’s most well-known, headline-catching, and PDA-loving power couples. As such, it’s no surprise that they would keep things steamy at pretty much any event- including their daughter Kulture’s fifth birthday party. Moreover, Cardi grinded on the former Migo at the Super Mario-themed celebratory bash, which took place on Sunday (July 16) a few days after Kulture’s actual birthday. Still, it seems like they went all out for their daughter, and they both shared sweet messages for her on their social media pages.

“My baby is five,” Cardi B shared on Instagram with various pictures of Kulture. “Happy birthday to my pretty princess. It’s beautiful seeing my girl grow yet makes me a lil sad that my baby is not my little baby no more. Light lil turn up today till the weekend.” Offset’s message was similarly loving and wholesome, captioning a couple of pictures of him with her. “Happy birthday @kulturekiari your such a great daughter,” he wrote. “You make me smile every time I lay eyes on you… I can’t believe you are 5 years old already. I remember holding you when you were first born in my arms… daddy’s girl I love you so much.”

Also, it’s honestly great to see the couple in this admittedly very public display of affection following cheating rumors Offset levied at Cardi B. “Listen,” the Bronx MC stated on Twitter Spaces. “Don’t pay attention to the country man, y’all. That Spaces the other day? That motherf***er’s spiralin’. Come on, now. I’m Cardi B, n***a. I think sometimes motherf***ers forget that I’m Cardi B. If I was givin’ this p***y to anybody, it would be out. Can’t f**k me no regular-degular-schmegular! Cuz they gon’ tell the world. And I can’t f**k nobody in the industry, cuz they gon’ tell too! So please, boy. Stop actin’ stup*d!”

Meanwhile, despite this contention, it seems like things patched up between the two after all. Of course, this isn’t the first time that they dealt with rumors like these in their relationship. With a family to nurture, though, it’s heartening to see them stay strong and supportive throughout the whole ordeal. On that note, check back in with HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Cardi B and Offset.

Safaree & Amara La Negra Bump & Grind For Instagram

by

Safaree and Amara La Negra just put on an intimate dance show for Instagram, bumping and grinding with each other. Moreover, the classic Marc Anthony hit “Pa’lla Voy” played in the background, and the Jamaican-American artist captioned the post with “Trying to teach me wth” and some laughing emojis. Of course, given Amara’s Dominican descent, she has those salsa moves on point. On that note, it actually wasn’t all that intimate, as they danced more traditionally before getting closer. With this, the “Love & Hip Hop” alumni gave yet another instance of PDA– and we’ll see how this one goes over with Safaree’s ex-wife Erica Mena.

Furthermore, she recently blasted him for his lousy gifts to their daughter on her birthday, while he gave new boo Amara’s twin babies matching Rolex watches for their small wrists. After Mena and Safaree finalized their divorce in September of last year, it seems like things are still pretty rocky between the two. After all, Erica alleged that the 41-year-old only got their daughter a birthday cake and some balloons for her third birthday. With that discrepancy in mind, it’s not hard to see why she would lash out.

Amara La Negra & Safaree Get Up Close & Personal Dancing

“Awe so cute,” Erica Mena began her takedown of Safaree and Amara La Negra under a post covering his Rolex gifts. “It’s just very interesting how my kids have NEVER received gifts like this by this waste man. My daughter just turned three. All she got was a birthday cake and a few balloons in his living room.” Apparently that isn’t even the worst of it. She said he didn’t celebrate their son’s first birthday “until two weeks after the fact,” and he only brought balloons. “Happy [everybody] enjoyed this circus-themed birthday party with a deadbeat clown as the special guest.”

“Before I go someone @ him,” Erica continued in another comment. “He blocked me since I won’t take his crying begging a** back ([hence] why [he’s] now desperately shooting in Miami). Let him know he has medical bills that’s only $8K for last year he owes along with… Never mind just tell him he got it. Pay it.” For the latest on Safaree and Amara La Negra, check back in with HNHH.
