September 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Shannon Sharpe’s followers were stunned on Wednesday morning after the NFL legend posted an explicit video of himself appearing to have sex with a woman on Instagram Live. Shortly afterward, he apologized for the incident and claimed to have been hacked. “Beware my @shannonsharpe84 Instagram was hacked this morning, my team and I are working vigorously to figure this out,” he wrote in a since-deleted explanation.

Fans have been making jokes on social media at Sharpe’s expense throughout the day. “That woman had Shannon Sharpe breathing like Doc Rivers on a stairmaster,” one user on X (formerly Twitter) wrote. Another remarked that he “was just lecturing Ocho about professionalism on their nightcap show.”

Sharpe hasn’t shied away from discussing his love life over the years. Back in 2023, he told Chad Johnson why he’s never gotten married during an episode of his Club Shay Shay podcast. “I would have loved to have gotten married earlier in my career, but my career was the most important. So I was no good. I was a terrible father,” he admitted at the time, as noted by Page Six. “I probably was a terrible brother, terrible son, I definitely was a terrible boyfriend because football was the most important thing, I was consumed with that because I wanted to get my grandmother and my family out of the conditions that I grew up in.”

50 Cent Has Ruthless Comeback For Hurricane Chris After Boldly Claiming He’s The Better Rapper

September 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In mid-August, 50 Cent and Louisiana native Hurricane Chris were trading shots thanks to the latter kicking things off. At the start of last month, the G-Unit head honcho put together the Humor & Harmony Weekend festival and spent a whopping $500,000 on security. Chris was not a fan of the budgeting and publicly called out Fif online. “That money could’ve went to help the motherf***ing youth. We don’t need more money invested into the police”. After going back and forth for a couple of days, Chris said that they smoothed things out. However, just two days ago, he decided to restart their beef for some reason.

This time, he proudly stated that he is the better artist at this point in his career and would outperform him. “You cannot out rap me. You do not make better music than me right now. Song making, he don’t make better songs than me. If 50 was to make a song right now and I make a song right now I’mma smash that s***. I make music way better than 50 Cent. I know it’s a fact”. When you call out the “Candy Shop” MC like that it’s eventually going to get back to him. This case is no exception to the rule, and 50 had quite the rebuttal for Chris.

He reshared a clip from that same Vlad TV interview when he was talking about Louisiana’s lackluster educational system. In that segment, Chris pronounced “educational” incorrectly and that was all the ammo that 50 needed to disprove any of the former’s claims. “ this is what happens when the edunacational system fails you IN THE 50 states of America. LOL”, he expertly quipped. Chris replied in the comments with some laughing emojis and claimed that he was talking too fast. He also said that, “I corrected it yu looping the video with them good editors”.

Later, Chris would respond with an old clip in which 50 states that he’s a fan of 6ix9ine and Soulja Boy. He captioned the video, “ I write 16s u like 16s ”. Fans are siding with 50 on this one and letting Chris know that he messed with the wrong guy. What are your thoughts on 50 Cent’s clap back after Hurricane Chris claimed he was the better rapper? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Drake Continues To Show Lil Wayne Support Amidst Halftime Show Debate

September 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Drake has said plenty in 2024. The rapper fired back at basically every big rapper in the industry on his wave of diss tracks. Since then knockout punch that was Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” though, Drake has opted for a different approach. He’s become an Instagram guy. He resorted to posting photos and messages that suggest what he’s feeling without coming out and saying. This has been evident in the wake of the Kendrick Lamar battle. It’s also been evident since the whole Super Bowl Halftime Show fiasco hit the internet.

Roc Nation announced that Lamar would be headlining the Halftime Show in New Orleans in 2025. The hip hop community was mad. Dozens of industry insiders came out and claimed that Lil Wayne should have been given the opportunity to perform in front of his hometown. Drake seemingly agrees. The day the Lamar news hit, Drake posted a photo of the Young Money crew on his Instagram Story. A day later, the 6 God doubled down and dropped two additional photos of Lil Wayne. Neither photo had a caption, but they featured prime Weezy circa Tha Carter III.

Drake Posted Retro Lil Wayne Photos On His IG Story

The second photo, in particular, looks to be taken from the music video for Wayne’s iconic “A Milli.” Drake has always made it clear that Wayne changed his life and career for the better. It is worth noting, though, that the rapper has multiple reasons for wanting to champion a Weezy Halftime Show. For one, Lil Wayne leading a Halftime Show would likely mean guest appearances from the likes of Nicki Minaj and Drake. It would be a major moment for the trio, who have taken some pretty high profile L’s over the last few years.

Drake feeding into the Lil Wayne narrative also vilifies the man who is actually headlining the Halftime Show. Kendrick Lamar has been the golden boy of hip hop throughout 2024, because Drake is an easy person to hate. He’s been on top for too long. Pitting Lamar against Wayne is a different story, though. Weezy is respected across the board, and Lamar has even cited him as one of his main influences. It’ll be interesting to see how Drake interacts with this developing controversy as the Super Bowl gets closer.

Southside Hints At New Playboi Carti Collab With Surprising IG Reunion

September 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Playboi Carti is up to something. He always is, but it seems like he’s actually getting close to sharing what said something is with the fans. The world has been waiting on Carti’s third studio album since 2020, with very little to go on in terms of updates. All this has changed in the last month, though. The rapper known for being secretive started posting regularly on Instagram. He showed up to accept an award at a Billboard ceremony. And on September 10th, Carti made a rare appearance on Southside’s Instagram.

The two men seemingly linked up to celebrate Playboi Carti’s Billboard award. “My youngin won his first award,” the producer stated. “I’m overly proud of you kid.” It was the way Southside concluded his post, however, that really got fans excited. He hinted that there is plenty more Carti music coming in the near future. “Many more to come,” he teased. Very little is actually know about Playboi Carti’s upcoming album, but the notion of Carti and Southside linking up on said album is actually more novel than you might.

Southside & Playboi Carti Teased “More To Come”

A post shared by DJ Akademiks (@akademiks)

Southside has known Playboi Carti for years, as his caption would suggest. The two collaborated on the 2018 song “Ain’t Doin’ That,” but their collab history has been surprisingly limited since. They had some musical camaraderie on their one song, but Southside has spent more time working with guys like Kodak Black and Future. The reunion photo between the producer and Playboi Carti could be just that, a photo of two artists reuniting, but it could also be a teaser for new songs. Especially when you take Southside’s caption into account.

Of course, it’s all subject to change. Playboi Carti has admitted that his recording process is not normal in any sense. The rapper recently told Billboard that he will live in the studio, and go more off of feel than anything else. “It’s all based on confidence. I believe in myself,” Carti explained. “The moment I started recording, someone came to me and said that they like my songs. I stay in the studio every day.” The fact that the rapper is making public statements at all is a good sign. Hopefully we get to to hear some new Carti and Southside sooner than later.

Memphis Bleek Has A Theory On Why Nicki Minaj Hates JAY-Z So Much

September 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Memphis Bleek knows JAY-Z about as well as anybody in hip hop. He was Hov’s right hand man during the peak of Roc-A-Fella Records. When he has something to say about the man, there’s a lot of street cred that comes with it. This is why Memphis Bleek’s input on September 10 was so welcome. The hip hop world was still shocked by Nicki Minaj’s vitriol towards JAY-Z after the Super Bowl Halftime Show controversy. It seemed to come out of nowhere. According to Bleek, though, there’s a specific reason why Minaj despises JAY-Z.

Memphis Bleek took to Twitter to present his theory. He didn’t air out Nicki Minaj, or even call her out by name, but the message was pretty clear. The rapper reposted a Hot 97 clip of JAY-Z talking way back in 2009. The Roc-A-Fella co-founder claimed that fellow artists only get mad at him whenever he fails to do something for them. “They don’t say I did anything to them,” JAY-Z says in the clip. “They say I didn’t do something for them.” Memphis Bleek implies that Nicki Minaj is one of the artists who fall under this tired pattern. “N**gas is mad mad,” he added.

Memphis Bleek Thinks Nicki Minaj Is Acting Entitled

Memphis Bleek may have a point. Nicki Minaj and JAY-Z both hail from New York, but there has never been a particularly close dynamic between them. Minaj and Hov rapped together on Kanye West’s hit “Monster” in 2010, but have never appeared on each other’s respective albums. Nicki Minaj also said that she wanted to “dethrone” JAY-Z during a 2012 interview with Allure Magazine. She explained that she made her bold proclamation to the rapper’s face during the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. “I was like, ‘Yeah, I’m coming for you,’” Minaj recalled. “‘I’m coming for your spot, Mr. Mogul.’”

It doesn’t help, of course, that Nicki Minaj’s boss, Lil Wayne, and label mate, Drake, has also had tense dynamics with Hov over the years. Roc Nation and Young Money don’t seem to mix, which does support Memphis Bleek’s theory. The notion that JAY-Z didn’t pick Weezy for the Super Bowl Halftime Show, or the Young Money crew as a whole, is an instance of him not doing something for Minaj. There’s decades of additional history and context to take into account. At the end of the day, though, Bleek’s theory is still pretty solid.

Slim Jxmmi Threatens To “Slap The ‘A Bay Bay’” Out Of Hurricane Chris Amid Super Bowl Argument

September 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Hurricane Chris and Slim Jxmmi have been trading shots on social media over the NFL’s choice to have Kendrick Lamar perform at the Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show. After Chris compared the situation to his recent complaints about 50 Cent’s lineup to his Humor & Harmony festival in Shreveport, the Rae Sremmurd rapper trolled him on social media.

“So now you n****s understand it, huh? Same sh*t that I was just saying 50 Cent did in Shreveport, now it’s happening in New Orleans on a bigger scale,” Chris said. “People like Master P come in on it, so now everybody understand? I just made this same f*cking statement.” In response, Jxmmi commented: “BRUH! AINT NO WAY YOU STILL REACHING! [crying face emoji].” That prompted Chris to respond with, “@slimjxmmi mind yo business unless you wanna see these hands bruh on god what’s poppin,” to which Jxmmi threatened, “I’ll slap the ‘A Bay Bay’ out this n***a [100 emoji].”

As for the rest of Chris’ argument, he explained: “When you come to the South, y’all gotta show more respect than this. We got our own culture here. N****s coming down here laughing, playing games, thinking they just gonna use their money and take over everything. It ain’t going down like that. We going back to that old f*cking law. You n****s stepping on turf gon’ do what you supposed to do, or you gon’ pack your sh*t up and get the f*ck on.”

Hurricane Chris & Slim Jxmmi Trade Shots

Chris is far from the only artist to take issue with the NFL choosing Kendrick Lamar for the Super Bowl. Cam’ron, Nicki Minaj, Master P, and more have all spoken out in support of Lil Wayne.

Trick Daddy Embarrasses Yung Miami With Childhood Throwback

September 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Trick Daddy shared a throwback photo of himself and Yung Miami on Instagram on Monday without clueing fans into the identity of the young girl. “I’ve taken so many pics thru out my career but who can guess who these kids here!!” Trick asked in the caption of the post. When The Shade Room reshared the image, Yung Miami hopped in the comments section to reveal she’s one of the girls. “Fr shaderoom delete me,” she wrote with laughing emojis. “That’s me and my sister yall @itsmekcee25 we was to ugly omg.”

Other fans in the comments made plenty of jokes about the image. “Trick looking like he finna beat up the cameraman after he get done taking pictures,” one user wrote. Others brought up Miami’s past relationship with Diddy. One fan came to her defense in that regard: “Can yall stop bringing up Diddy every time you see her please? She had a name before him and she’s still doing her after him. Let it go.”

Trick Daddy previously made headlines for claiming that fans are more interested in Yung Miami than her City Girls partner, JT. He had been referring to Miami’s Revolt series, Caresha Please, while discussing her on It’s Tricky with Raquel Harper. “I’m not saying that to the talent-wise, ’cause the City Girls is the hottest group out there talent-wise,” he clarified at the time. “I’m talking about for the stuff that she is promoting. Now, I seen Caresha on her podcast, she had P. Diddy on there blushing like a 14-year-old boy. She got something down there, you feel me? I don’t know what Caresha got going on, but she got something down there.”

Tyler, The Creator Calls Out Kanye West For Using Backing Tracks In Concert

September 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Tyler, The Creator and Kanye West admire each other’s music. They’ve collaborated multiple times over the last decade. The former has cited West as a major musical influence on several occasions. Tyler will speak his mind when something annoys him, though. Kanye West posted footage of him performing the track “On Sight” during his recent concert in Korea, and Tyler, The Creator took to the comment section with some feedback. He wasn’t mean about it, but he did make it clear to West and the fans that he was annoyed with what he saw.

First, the footage. Kanye West is clearly letting the backing tracks do most of the work during the show. “On Sight” is a high energy song, but the rapper seems pretty laid back and content to just vibe out while the crowd sings along. Tyler, The Creator wasn’t thrilled. He left a comment on West’s page calling him out for being lazy on stage. “N**ga u was right there,” Tyler wrote. “Just say the words!!!!” He tried to take some of the sting out of his critique by throwing a few heart eye emojis, but his point stood.

Tyler The Creator Has Worked With Ye For Over A Decade

Tyler, The Creator may have songs with Kanye West, but he’s been accused of dissing the rapper in the past. A fan theory developed around the 2023 song “Stuntman,” in which many fans assumed Tyler was taking aim at the “Carnival” hitmaker. He was not. Tyler, The Creator clarified this misconception during an interview with Rap Radar. “[People] have terrible comprehension skills,” he told the podcast hosts. “I would never diss—like, no, I love that n**ga. And that is not about him. It’s actually about the rest of the world.”

Kanye West has reciprocated the positive energy. He praised Tyler, The Creator’s fashion sense as far back as 2013. “[He’s an] artist, innovator, and a good mentor,” West told 97.1 AMP Radio. “Because he’s so talented and understands things.” It goes without saying that Kanye West and Tyler, The Creator are very different people than they were in 2013 (especially West), but mutual admiration still seems strong. Hopefully West starts rapping live again, and the two of them can continue to work together.

The Weeknd Announces Release Date For New Single “Dancing In The Flames”

September 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The Weeknd loves to be cryptic. It’s been a foundational element of his persona since he broke out in 2011. The pop star has kept it going strong with the rollout for his upcoming album, Hurry Up Tomorrow. There’s been teaser videos, cryptic messages, and now we finally have a proper single. Well, at least, a release date for a proper single. The Weeknd took to social media on September 9 to unveil the title and release date for his lead single, “Dancing In the Flames.” And it’s sooner than you’d think.

The Weeknd broke the news to excited fans via Instagam. He posted the artwork for “Dancing In the Flames,” which is, of course, very dramatic. The teasers for Hurry Up Tomorrow suggest a lot of deep reflection and emotional examination. Liberation, and perhaps even growth, seem to be themes hinted at in the promo rollout. “Dancing In the Flames” is no different. The Weeknd is posited in the lower left hand corner, adorned in sunglasses. Meanwhile, a bright orange, sun-like object is in the top right, shining on him. The release date? Friday, September 13. That’s right, fans will get to hear the first phase of the new Weeknd era in less than a week.

The Weeknd’s Comeback Single Is Out This Friday

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Abel (@theweeknd)

The Weeknd is known for having a tight grip on his rollouts. Unfortunately, Hurry Up Tomorrow has not gone according to plan, so far. The album was reportedly leaked online on Sunday, September 8. It was widely theorized that the leak came as a result of pre-order vinyls being shipped. Not only were songs leaked online, but the entire tracklist was as well. Assuming the leaks are accurate, Hurry Up Tomorrow will include a lone guest appearances from Coldplay.

The single that has since been announced, however, “Dancing In the Flames,” was not on leaked vinyl tracklist. This could be mean numerous things. For one, the vinyl leaks that made their way online could be fake. It wouldn’t be the first time a high profile release fell victim to clout-chasers online. It could also mean The Weeknd made tweaks to the tracklist if the leak was indeed legitimate. Big Sean had to deal with a similar situation when his album Better Me Than You leaked online weeks before its release. We hope The Weeknd manages to sell better, though.

Mariah Carey Getting Ready To Perform Again After “Couple Of Rough Weeks”

September 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

According to TMZ, Mariah Carey is getting ready to tour once again. In a recent Instagram post, the R&B icon shared a short clip of her powerfully singing and prepping for said upcoming performances. She will be heading across the globe to China and then eventually Brazil (or vice versa) very soon. However, at the time of writing, nothing is officially set in stone just yet. But despite all that’s happened, she seems to be excited to get back onstage and perform in front of thousands. “Back at work. It’s been a couple of rough weeks, but I appreciate everyone’s love and support so much”, she said. “I can’t wait to see my fans in China & Brazil. Love you! ”.

Of course, those “couple of rough weeks” are a reference to the passing of her mother and sister. Both Patricia (87) and Alison (63) died on the same day during the weekend of August 23. Still, no one knows the causes of their deaths. There’s also the off chance that Mariah is talking about catching some flak from a friend of Alison’s in regard to not reaching out and that the singer knew about her sibling’s condition.

Mariah Carey Has A Message For Her Fans

A post shared by Mariah Carey (@mariahcarey)

Carey never addressed the matter publicly, but there’s probably a chance she talked to David Baker behind closed doors. He accused her of being aware about her dwindling life expectancy for about a month. Alison was reportedly heartbroken about never getting a “phone call or, better still, a video call”. There continues to still be a lot of questions about all of this, so stay with us for anything else regarding this ongoing storyline.

What are your thoughts on Mariah Carey heading back on the road to perform weeks after her mother’s and sister’s deaths? Are you surprised she’s already looking to back onstage? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Mariah Carey.
