Nicki Minaj Tells Fans To Stop Asking Questions Amidst Ice Spice Beef

August 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Nicki Minaj had quite a bit to say on August 21. The rapper didn’t name names, but she made lots of statements that all felt based around a few specific people. The people in question? The pair she went and unfollowed on Instagram the same day: JT and Ice Spice. Minaj cut ties with the up-and-coming rappers. She then proceeded to criticize younger rappers who go and sign with white owned record labels over her own Heavy On It imprint. THEN she wagged her finger at her fans and claimed she’s through talking about “other people.”

There’s obviously a lot to unpack here. We already covered Nicki Minaj’s comments about labels, which you can check out here. The rant about “other people,” however, was perhaps the most intriguing piece of content that Minaj generated on Wednesday. The rapper addressed her fanbase directly, and said she has no plans to discuss people who are outside of her inner circle. “Don’t ask me about nobody,” she asserted. “If you don’t see someone around me, don’t ask me about them.” Nicki Minaj then advised curious parties to direct any questions at these other people.

“Go and talk to them,” the rapper added. “The truth of the matter is that y’all don’t want to know the truth of the matter.” The last line reads a bit like a Minaj bar, but it does also suggest that there’s more to the story than fans are getting to see. It’s not a stretch to infer that the rapper is talking about JT and Ice Spice. Nicki Minaj has had very public falling outs with both of these artists. In the case of Ice Spice, the relationship went from mutually supportive and collaborative to contentious in the span of a year. Minaj and Spice worked together on “Princess Diana” in 2023, and now they don’t even follow each other on Instagram.

In May 2024, texts claiming to belong to Ice Spice leaked online. The texts saw the “Munch” rapper complain about Nicki Minaj, calling her “ungrateful and delusional” and likening Minaj to her mother. From there, the alleged Ice Spice texts blasted Minaj for being “jealous” of the fact that the younger rapper owned her masters. Real or not, these leaked texts were seemingly the straw that broke the camel’s back. Minaj and Spice are on the outs. Don’t ask Minaj about it though, per her request.

Screwly G Calls Out FBG Affiliates After FBG Duck’s Murder: Watch

August 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Screwly G wasn’t having it on August 21. The rapper got on Instagram Live and proceeded to pop off on FBG affiliates who flooded his comment section. Not only did Screwly G call out FBG for not being as dangerous as they pose themselves, but he evoked the death of one of their most notable members: FBG Duck. Six gang members were found guilty for FBG Duck’s murder in January, so to call Screwly’s evocation bold is to put it mild. The rapper went into absolute rant mode.

“None of you n**gas killed none of ’em,” Screwly G asserted. “I’ll get into it… Whichever GDE wanna get into it.” The rapper then proceed to call out FBG affiliates for talking tough via social media but trying to link up with him for music behind closed doors. “N**ga, you the same bum a*s n**ga who asked me for a feature,” Screwly G claimed. “Be a real gangsta, and go to the DMs. Don’t unsend your message… Talkin’ about Duck this, Duck that.” The rapper then went on to criticize the affiliates in the comment section for making him a target. “Y’all n**gas got more aggression for me than for anybody,” he claimed. Then, the rapper got aggressive. “I guarantee I finish your a*s,” he added. “On my dead cousin. Right where you at, n**ga.”

FBG affiliates aren’t the only one annoyed by Screwly G’s bravado. King Yella hopped on Instagram Live to defend FBG Duck’s name and question why Screwly felt the need to bring him up at all. “Indiana a*s, out of town a*s,” Yella dubbed the rapper. “Why is you even mentioning folks? Goofy a*s n**ga. You a b*tch, everyone around you a b*tch.” It gets more disrespectful from there. “F*ck your dead homie, f*ck your mom, f*ck your grandmama. Keep Duck name out your mouth.”

Screwly G is no stranger to dangerous situations. The rapper was involved in a shooting during the making of a music video back in December. Footage obtained by people on the set show the rapper and his team dancing before gunshots can be heard in the background. Everybody subsequently ran for cover. Thankfully nobody was injured in the shooting.

August 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Latto says that her father has been stealing from her and believes she’s in the Illuminati. She reflected on her relationship with her dad in a brief post on her Instagram Story while sharing a report about a wholesome moment between a father and his pilot daughter.

“Awww my dad steals from me & tell everyone I’m in the Illuminati,” Latto captioned the story with laughing emojis on Wednesday. Fans on social media were confused by the post, considering the rapper’s prior defense of her father. “Since when? I thought she was always biggin up her Dad. I must’ve missed a season,” one user asked on X (formerly Twitter). Another wrote: “The same dad that saved her from gettin beat by SupaPeach some years back at some music festival, that dad?!?” One fan brought up her song, “No Hook,” on which she raps: “I came home from school and seen bags, hella drugs / Lost the bond with my daddy for some money and a buzz / Swear the industry the devil, sh*t, it is what it was / Ain’t no stranger on the ‘net finna tell me ’bout my life, though.”

Latto has come to the defense of her father on multiple occasions over the years. While she was beefing with Nicki Minaj in 2022, she fired back against rumors of a dramatic age gap in her parents’ relationship. “Loud & wrong again,” she wrote when Minaj brought up the report. “They was both teenagers in high school bookie they still married lmao.”

King Yella Admits To Cocaine Addiction In Unhinged Instagram Rant: Watch

August 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

King Yella is one of the blunt rappers on the planet. There isn’t a topic he’s afraid to discuss. He’s been open about his GD affiliations and the attempt he made on his life in 2023. That said, fans were still taken aback by King Yella’s honesty on August 20. The rapper decided to get on Instagram Live and freely talk about the fact that he has a cocaine addiction. Not only that, but King Yella claims that he’s perfectly content with his addiction, and claims to be on cocaine at the time of the video’s recording.

Oftentimes there’s wiggle room with regards to a rapper’s intent. We don’t want to imply or mislead the reader into thinking they are saying something they really aren’t. King Yella requires no such handling. He came right out and advocated for cocaine use during his IG Live. “Ain’t nothing wrong with cocaine,” the rapper stated. “I love cocaine, that sh*t having me blitzed.” The rapper proceeded to get closer to the camera as he talked. He eventually gets so close than the viewer can see up his nostrils. This isn’t an accident. “I’m on coke right now,” King Yella asserted. “I’m coke, I’m a f*cking cokehead. So what?”

King Yella Asked IG Followers To Help Him Score Coke

Like we said, direct. King Yella pivoted from pontificating on cocaine use to asking commenters who has more for him. “Who got the cocaine,” he asked while scanning the comment section. “Yeah, I’m for real. I want some cocaine, n**ga. Y’all know y’all got good cocaine in Miami!” The rapper punctuated his final statement with a snorting sound meant to emulate the sound of, well, snorting coke. The rant goes off the rails from there, with King Yella detailing what he’d like to do while on the white substance. He also voiced a desire to try a “pink” variation that is allegedly in Miami.

In case anyone was unsure of what King Yella was getting at, the caption doubled down. The rapper proceeded to ask viewers if they could help him score since he hadn’t had the drug in a long time. “I need help lately I been off cocaine do y’all have some,” he wrote. Alternatively, and unnervingly, Yella asked whether anybody could help him kick his habit. “Get me some help because that drug feel so great to me I feel like Superman off it,” he concluded. Hopefully help arrives.

50 Cent Can’t Believe His Eyes After Diddy Gets Sued By Alleged Cartel Member

August 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

50 Cent shared a story from NewsNation on Instagram on Monday that claimed a drug cartel member sued Diddy after he allegedly refused to traffic minors. According to the outlet, Alfredo P. Gonzalez, a self-proclaimed member of the Sinaloa drug cartel, attempted to sue Diddy and Bad Boy Entertainment for allegedly tarnishing his reputation with his New York-based drug business contacts. He sought $666,000 in damages but Chief U.S. District Judge Laura Taylor Swain abruptly dismissed the case.

“Ok, I have seen it all WTF is going on here,” 50 captioned a screenshot of the headline. In the comments section, fans joked about 50’s deep hatered for Diddy. “50 hate on almost every black man that has more money than him (mayweather, jay-z, diddy, rick Ross) jealous fella,” one top response reads. Another user reacted to the lawsuit with confusion. “Can they actually sue if it’s illegal? And ain’t that them snitching on themselves? I’m confused,” they said.

As for Swain’s ruling on Gonzalez’s case, the judge argued it lacked basic legal standing as the injuries stemmed from illegal activities and are thus not protected by law. Additionally, she found the claims not to be believable, lacking “an arguable basis either in law or in fact.” She even denied his request to amend the lawsuit, arguing it was already too far gone.

Lil Yachty Sends Drake Fans Into A Frenzy By Unfollowing Him On IG

August 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It seems like fans will spend “Another Late Night” theorizing and speculating as to who Drake is beefing with next. Moreover, some eagle-eyed fans on social media recently noticed that Lil Yachty seemed to unfollow him on Instagram. This shocked a lot of admirers thanks to the duo’s strong collaborative and personal relationship prior to this, as well as the fact that they engaged with each other online as much as in person. Furthermore, OVO and Concrete supporters immediately got into detective mode, speculating that the supposed upcoming release of Drizzy’s “Supersoak” has something to do with it.

If you didn’t already know, DJ Akademiks previewed a clip of the music video for this song, which originally featured Lil Yachty. In fact, it was Yachty who leaked the original collab version of the song to Kai Cenat for him to play it on his livestream. This was because they couldn’t clear the sample, as the sampled artist Mr. Hotspot’s religious views prompted him to demand a clean version of the team-up. With this new development in mind, many speculate that Mr. Hotspot is mad at Yachty for revealing all this on a podcast, and told the 6ix God that he could drop it if he removed his partner.

Lil Yachty Seemingly Unfollows Drake

Of course, that’s just an unfounded theory, and so will any others before one of them actually speaks out about it. Still, we’re not even inclined to believe that this indicates a rift between the two, as it could just as easily be a promo tactic. Nevertheless, it’s not like Drake and Lil Yachty’s relationship has all been peaches and cream. For example, the latter’s thoughts on the former’s beef with Kendrick Lamar resulted in considerable uproar from the Toronto superstar’s die-hards.

Regardless, we’ll see if Drake and Lil Yachty speak on this at any point. It’s not like every fan loved this collab, but fans worry about this partnership fading. After all, they picked a pretty contentious and controversial moment to stir even more rumors about who is or isn’t beefing. Are they bamboozling us just to troll or is there something deeper going on?

Yung Gravy Dismisses Claims That Hawk Tuah Girl Turned Him Down

August 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

A story that would have made no sense a year ago. Hawk Tuah Girl, aka Hailey Welch, has become a pseudo celebrity thanks to a viral TikTok interview. She’s exploded in the months since, popping up at country shows and booking podcast appearances with notable brands. Yung Gravy is one of the people who have taken notice. Welch (we’re not calling her Hawk Tuah for the duration of this article) claimed that the rapper slid into her DMs, but she turned him down. Now, though the Gravy Train is coming out with his side of the story.

Yung Gravy took to social media on August 19 to set the record straight. He reposted the article with Welch’s comments and wrote: “Can’t be nice anymore lol.” The rapper then posted a screenshot of the DM conversation in question. Yung Gravy gave Welch props for becoming a sensation, and proceeded to invite her to an upcoming concert. “Oh, and this ain’t just me trying to finesse cause I don’t know your man situation,” he explained. “But I wanted to have you at a show next month to hear my country sh*t.” Welch asked when the concert was, and Yung Grizzle posted a link to his tour.

Yung Gravy Provided Receipts For Their DM Convo

The screenshot doesn’t show any more of the conversation. Based on what we do see, however, Yung Gravy made it clear that he wasn’t trying to shoot his shot. Nor does it seem like Welch definitively shot him down. “I was like, nahhhh, I don’t know about that…,” Welch originally claimed. Yung Gravy seems to have won the internet’s favor in this exchange. A community note has been added to the original Welch quote providing the rapper’s POV. “Yung Gravy denies this,” the note reads. “He claims he only invited her to a concert.”

This is not the first time Yung Gravy has been linked to a viral celebrity. The rapper attended the 2023 Video Music Awards with Sheri Easterling, the mother of TikToker Addison Rae. The pair shocked many online, but Gravy refuted the “stunt date” accusations. In fact, he told E! Canada that he still keeps in touch with Easterling. “We still keep in touch a lot,” he noted. “It wouldn’t make sense for us to date because we live in different cities, but we keep in touch. Any show I have in Louisiana, she’ll be there.”

Lil Durk Argues Gang Life Is Incompatible With His Muslim Faith

August 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Lil Durk argued you can’t be both gang-affiliated and Muslim while speaking on his faith in a statement on Instagram, over the weekend. The topic began with him sharing a selfie on Instagram with the caption: “Don’t label me nothing outside of A MAN A FATHER and A 1000% Muslim.” As fans questioned his intent with the statement, Durk took to his Instagram Story to elaborate.

“I don’t gabgbang I’m a Muslim,” he wrote. “Basically what I was saying on my post in so many words you can’t do both ima be the one who say it. So if you follow me as a brother a friend a icon follow me to my new chapter of life. When I make music I rap what I seen and been through not telling you to go do it HUGE difference the music won’t change but my life goals will.”

It’s not the first time Durk has spoken about his growth in recent years. Back in June, he discussed his past drug use and revealed he checked into rehab in a video shared by TMZ. “It was tough at first, but it ain’t that tough ’cause I really knew what I wanted. I knew what was holding me back,” Durk explained at the time. “I wanted better. I want to be a better man, a better father, a better leader. My main goal is peace, being with the family and staying out of bullsh*t. I just see myself staying on the right track and trying to change a lot of lives.”

Trick Daddy Thirsts For GloRilla Under Spicy Selfie

August 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

GloRilla is certainly no stranger to turning heads, and one of her latest selfies recently caught the attention of none other than Trick Daddy. In the photo, Glo flashes a peace sign in her bathroom mirror. “Damn Glo I’m loving this bathroom [side eye emoji],” he wrote. Of course, other social media users quickly took note of his comment and speculated that it was his attempt at shooting his shot.

While most can’t blame him for his apparent thirst, many are urging him to sit this one out, calling attention to their age difference. “Trick, you have daughters her age,” one fan writes alongside a laughing emoji. “Stop it.” Someone else simply says, “She’s 25 and he’s 50…” Others are coming to his defense, arguing that the remark could have actually been an innocent compliment.

It’s unconfirmed which of the two scenarios is true, and for now, Trick Daddy has yet to comment on the debacle. GloRilla isn’t the only femcee he’s shown love to in recent weeks, however. This month he also gave Sexyy Red her flowers on an episode of his podcast, B*tch I Got My Pots. He insisted that she was snubbed at the BET Awards this year, as Tyla took home the award for Best New Artist instead of her.

“Sexyy Red… You got snubbed,” he began. “Sexyy Red was up for the rapper, entertainer, performer. One of ’em other year. I remember last year, they was hating on her since she wasn’t making, now I can’t go in a club. I can’t step in a club without hearing some Sexyy Red.” What do you think of Trick Daddy seemingly thirsting for GloRilla? Do you think he was trying to shoot his shot, or just admiring her bathroom?

6ix9ine Makes His Return To Instagram With New Music And A New Hairstyle

August 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

6ix9ine is an artist who has always been incredibly polarizing and for good reason. Overall, his natural state of being has always been to just troll and let the rest figure itself out. At this stage in his career, he holds very little relevance in hip-hop. However, he does make Latin music now and mostly operates within the confines of the Dominican Republic. Recently, Tekashi made his return to the United States where fans are wondering what his next move will be.

Well, as you can see down below, 6ix9ine is officially back on social media and he has brought with him a whole new hairstyle. Fans remember him for his long hair that was rainbow-colored. Now, he is simply going for something much more basic and refined. Meanwhile, he also previewed some new music, although it is clear he just does not have the juice he used to have years ago. One has to wonder how much longer the charade will go on for.

With very few industry connections left, 6ix9ine is a social pariah in the game. This was certainly true in 2018, but it is even more accurate in 2024. The man isn’t even Celtics Shaq. He’s Melo on the Lakers. That said, 6ix9ine is a genius when it comes to marketing, so we’re sure he will figure something out if the sales figures come in a bit too low for his liking.

Let us know how you feel about 6ix9ine, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that his time in the music world has officially come and gone? Do you think he can maintain his current place as a provocateur of sorts? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will continue to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists and their upcoming projects.
