Machine Gun Kelly Doesn’t ‘Want Any Smoke’ With Taylor Swift’s Fan Base As He Refuses To Diss Her

People, generally speaking, like Taylor Swift; The fact that her new album, The Tortured Poets Department, just became the first project to accumulate 1 billion Spotify streams in a single week is evidence of that. Pair that with the fact that her Swiftie fan base is a passionate crew and it’s not often that you see people dissing Swift. With that in mind (and also accounting for the fact that he just likes her), Machine Gun Kelly absolutely refused to go after Swift.

This happened on yesterday’s (April 24) episode of Hot Ones Versus, a spin-off of the popular Hot Ones series in which two celebrity guests play a version of truth or dare, in which they have to eat a spicy wing to avoid responding to a potentially difficult question or prompt. MGK was paired up with Trippie Redd, and Redd asked MGK to say three bad things about Swift.

Kelly deadpanned to the camera and declared, “Ladies and gentlemen, you have got to be out of your motherf*cking mind if you think I want any smoke with that fan base. Also, Taylor is a saint and very nice to me, and Travis is my bro.”

Redd jokingly responded, “Kiss her feet while you’re at it,” and MGK replied, “Jesus Christ… I just… bro, she’s very nice! She’s very, very nice.”

Watch the Hot Ones Versus episode above.

Ne-Yo Accused Of Having “Freak-Offs” By Ex-Girlfriend, Gets Compared To Diddy

Ne-Yo is facing some heavy allegations right now, with his ex-girlfriend Sade Bagnerise claiming that he’s had “freak-offs” with drugs and sex workers while his children were at his house. For those unaware, she is the mother of his two youngest children, and she recorded and livestreamed herself launching these accusations at him on Wednesday (April 24) while he tried to use his video game console, plus while their kids were seemingly sleeping behind them. Bagnerise called the singer “Diddy Junior” and said that he will face similar public scrutiny due to these alleged actions. Also, she claimed that he body-slammed her and that he allegedly called the police after Bagnerise refused to leave their house due to her concern for their children.

Furthermore, it’s important to note that all of this is speculative and alleged behavior, none of which has been confirmed or is backed up by facts or a legal process at press time. So are the Diddy allegations, for that matter. As such, take this Ne-Yo news with a grain of salt. “He wants h*es over the house while his kids is here,” Bagnerise claimed. “This n***a like to have h*es, drugs and weed, alcohol, mushrooms, and [sex workers] in the house while his kids are here. Everyone has asked him to stop but he will not listen to nobody.”

Sade Bagnerise’s Accusations Against Ne-Yo: Watch

Ne-Yo has seven kids, the youngest of which (Braiden and Brixton) he shares with Sade Bagnerise legally. However, given his current relationship status, it looks like expanded fatherhood might not be in the cards for him. For example, the R&B star recently opened up about his current polyamorous relationship, and whether he thinks he’s going to take it to deeper levels. From what was said, it looks like it will remain quite casual.

With all this in mind, we’ll see whether these allegations result in any action or response moving forward. Elsewhere, what do you think about the reaction to this polyamorous switch-up? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments section down below. Also, come back to HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Ne-Yo.

Trippie Redd & Machine Gun Kelly Clown Producer Who Got Kicked Off Their New EP

Trippie Redd and Machine Gun Kelly recently came out with a new project called Genre:Sadboy. This new EP didn’t get the best reviews, however, fans of these two artists definitely appreciated it. Overall, the project was marred by a bit of a controversy that took place a week before the EP’s release. Of course, we are talking about the producer @kaixan2k who went out of their way to roast the fact that they were going to be placed on the project.

“The way I just learned I have a beat placement in this morning and I know it’s bout to be the worst song I’ve ever heard,” the producer explained. Subsequently, Trippie Redd had the song removed from the record. Eventually, the producer claimed to have already been paid, while also alleging that MGK is a “Pedo.” It was all very bizarre, and on Complex’s show Goat Talk, the two got to discuss what went down. As Trippie explained on the program, his response to the producer was his “GOAT Clapback.”

Trippie Redd & MGK Speak Out

Furthermore, Machine Gun Kelly weighed in all of this, saying “Unfortunately, this will be the biggest moment that you ever had in your life, you piece of shit.” Needless to say, neither Trippie nor MGK are huge fans of the producer and their actions leading up to the release of the project. At this point, the producer will have to work hard to get some industry connections in light of this situation. As for Trippie and MGK, they are doing their thing, regardless of who might be hating.

Let us know what you think of the beef between Trippie Redd, MGK, and the producer, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that the producer was in the right to stand their ground? Or was it a horrible move for them? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the music world.

Long Live Rico Wade: Organized Noize’s Most Iconic Beats Of All Time

Earlier this month, Atlanta producer and hip-hop legend Rico Wade passed away at the age of 52. A spokesperson for Wade’s family revealed heart failure as the cause of death. As a member of the production group Organized Noize, Rico Wade helped shape the sound of Atlanta hip-hop during the 1990s, transforming the genre into what it is today, specifically in the South. Their impact is well-documented, especially in their 2016 documentary, The Art Of Organized Noize. Wade and his group members, Ray Murray and Sleepy Brown, led the Dungeon Family collective, which included the likes of Outkast and Goodie Mob. 

The trio produced the majority of both groups’ first few albums and biggest hit singles. The Dungeon Family also helped foster the careers of Killer Mike, Janelle Monáe, and Future, who is Rico Wade’s first cousin. Its “Dungeon” name originates from the name of the studio at which they used to record, located in the basement of Rico Wade’s childhood home.

As a pivotal member of Organized Noize and The Dungeon Family, Wade’s contributions to southern hip hop and the genre at large remain outstanding. Many of his closest collaborators have taken to social media to mourn his loss, including Killer Mike, Big Boi, and CeeLo Green. In light of his passing, we are celebrating his most iconic beats of all time, which primarily consist of Dungeon Family productions. Take a look at the list below.  

5. Outkast – “Player’s Ball”

Outkast’s 1993 debut single is where it all began for The Dungeon Family. Rico Wade and his Organized Noize counterparts not only produced “Player’s Ball,” but handled the entirety of Big Boi and André 3000’s Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik. The song’s funky groove put a southern spin on West Coast G-Funk. This blend of regional styles acted as a catalyst for Outkast and Organized Noize’s later works. “Player’s Ball” marked the beginning of the South’s hip-hop takeover and remains one of Rico Wade’s most iconic works.

4. Outkast – “Two Dope Boyz (In A Cadillac)”

“Two Dope Boyz (In a Cadillac)” is easily the most iconic beat from Rico Wade and Organized Noize on Outkast’s ATLiens. The instrumental revolves around a sample of Five Stairstep’s “Danger! She’s A Stranger.” The hypnotic loop is flipped into a hip-hop track with its simple drum break. The beat leaves plenty of room for Big Boi and André 3000 to trade slick rhymes with one another. One of Outkast’s earlier iconic tracks, the beat prompted many artists to also sample “Danger! She’s A Stranger,” including Meyhem Lauren and Roc Marciano’s “Street Religion.”

3. Goodie Mob – “Cell Therapy”

Rico Wade and Organized Noize handled the production of Goodie Mob’s classic debut single, 1995’s “Cell Therapy.” Its main melody consists of just a few simple piano notes, which creates a haunting atmosphere. Goodie Mob contributes to this unsettling feeling of the chorus. They sing, “Who’s that peeking in my window? POW nobody now.” As Goodie Mob’s most iconic song, its beat is instantly recognizable and has been sampled on numerous occasions. Travis Scott, Rapsody, Lil Keke, and others have notably incorporated the legendary melody into their works. It is one of Organized Noize’s signature productions.

2. Outkast – “So Fresh, So Clean”

Outkast’s 2000 album, Stankonia featured less Organized Noize production compared to their previous albums. However, Rico Wade, Ray Murray, and Sleepy Brown produced one of the album’s biggest and most iconic hit singles. The samples of Joe Simon’s “Before the Night Is Over” and Funkadelic’s “I’ll Stay” provide a shimmering quality to the song’s feel-good instrumental. In addition to its samples, the track’s stuttering drum pattern is the production’s most outstanding quality. It provides a laid-back yet danceable rhythm, making “So Fresh, So Clean” a joyous occasion of its own. It is easily Outkast and Organized Noize’s biggest hit and arguably their most iconic collaboration. 

1. TLC – “Waterfalls”

Rico Wade and Organized Noize may be known for their contributions to hip hop, but one of their most undeniable productions is an R&B classic. The group produced TLC’s signature hit, “Waterfalls” in 1995. The song’s groove is reminiscent of “Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik,” but TLC made the track their own with an infectious performance. The brass, organ, and drums work with one another in the beat, creating a soulful backing for the singers. “Waterfalls” is a timeless record assisted by classic production from Organized Noize. The song’s longevity is a testament to Rico Wade and Organized Noize’s everlasting musical legacy.
