Chrisean Rock Says She’s Considered Removing Blueface Tattoos But Doesn’t Believe She Ever Will

June 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

No matter how heinous he is to her, Chrisean Rock will always manage to find love in her heart for Blueface. The 23-year-old has several tattoos dedicated to the “Thotiana” rapper. As of earlier this year, she has at least seven, many of them quite large and in painful places. Interestingly, Blue refuses to get any permanent tributes to her on his body. While their current relationship status remains unclear to the public, Rock is quickly approaching the due date of their first baby together.

Over the past six months, we’ve followed the Cr*zy In Love costars on a wild rollercoaster that’s seen them separate and reunite more times than we can count. Just when Rock seems to be ready to leave Blueface and his toxicity behind, cameras catch them happily clubbing together, only for things to blow up again within a matter of days. Last week the Baltimore native confirmed that a paternity test states that the 26-year-old is the father and that she’s considering an at-home birth. During a more recent Live session, Chrisean addressed questions about her ink dedicated to her future co-parent.

“Y’all keep asking about these tattoos,” she said while reading the comments flowing in and rubbing her neck. “I mean, I’ve considered getting them removed, but I know I’m not doing it,” Rock admitted. “I know me too well,” she added, a look of subtle disappointment crossing her face. Regardless of her limiting beliefs, many social media users have expressed that they see great potential in the Baddies star, especially when she distances herself from Blue and allows her personal light to shine bright.

While Chrisean Rock nears closer to becoming a first-time mother, Blueface celebrated Father’s Day in an unconventional way with his two children. On Sunday (June 18), he shared a look at the ridiculously bulky ankle monitor strapped to his leg while relaxing at home with the family.

Quavo & Offset Link Up At Takeoff’s Posthumous Birthday Celebration

June 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Seeing as he’s brought five beautiful children into the world, Father’s Day is obviously a special one for Offset – Cardi B makes sure of that. However, this year, the holiday coincides with what would’ve been Takeoff’s 29th birthday, which he’s no longer here to celebrate. All day (June 18) long, we’ve seen Instagram light up with heartfelt tributes to the late Migos rapper. Elsewhere, several of his closest friends and family members gathered together for a beautiful celebration in Take’s honour.

As photos begin to surface online, hip-hop heads are happy to see that Quavo and Offset were photographed chatting. In their usual form, both lyricists kept their sunglasses on and had plenty of chains around their necks. A smiling portrait of Takeoff appears on both of their shirts. While neither artist looks cheerful in the photo, simply knowing that they’re able to be in the same space after their past beef is encouraging.

RIP Takeoff

Apart from keeping the fallen star’s spirit alive, his friends also sent lanterns with messages for Takeoff into the sky. “To those whose flame has been extinguished, let this light represent our love and compassion,” one of them reads. “We will never forget you.” From what the “Can’t Go Out Sad” artists have said, a Migos reunion without Take in the picture is unlikely. Still, we hold out hope that we’ll see the remaining two lyricists rebuild the brotherly bond they had before things turned south between them.

Since Takeoff’s tragic death last year, both Quavo and Offset have been more focused on their music careers than ever before. The former revealed a few weeks back that his next LP will be called Rocket Power, and that it’s a tribute to his late nephew. Read more about the upcoming project at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

ASAP Rocky Makes Fatherhood Look Too Fly In New Photo Dump With RZA & Rihanna

June 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Parenthood takes a toll on a person, but somehow, Rihanna and ASAP Rocky have only gotten cooler since welcoming their first child together, RZA, in 2022. Of course, we’ve since found out that the Barbadian starlet is expecting again, and by our calculations, it likely won’t be long until she gives birth for the second time. While he’s still only got one mini-me to look after, the New York-born rapper is celebrating his second Father’s Day. Earlier on Sunday (June 18) afternoon, his Instagram feed lit up with a photo dump showing some of his favourite moments from being a dad so far.

“EVERYDAY FATHER’S DAY ,” Rocky wrote in his caption. He began with a comedic video of him aggressively brushing his teeth with bubblegum pink paste. Ever the king of colour coordination, he matched his mouth care with the pink polka dot bonnet worn on his head. Immediately after, the Testing hitmaker added a heartwarming photo – like captured by Rihanna – of him and RZA comfortably, albeit haphazardly, sleeping in bed together. We also see a close-up of the one-year-old’s adorable face, as well as a video of his parents in their natural element.

While the Bad Gal flaunts her budding baby bump for the camera under a white tank top, Rocky shows off his “dad bod” under his wife beater. The happy family paid tribute to the baby-to-be in another image as well, the rapper bending over to kiss Rihanna’s belly while holding their son. In the second last slide, Rocky showed how his little one is already copying his style and laidback attitude with an adorable video.

Finally, he closed things out with one last snapshot of the Fenty Beauty founder and their son, who look just like twins. “The Mayers boys stole my whole heart! Happy Father’s Day nerd,” she wrote in the comments. What do you think Rihanna and ASAP Rocky will name their second-born child? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Tory Lanez Updates Fans From Behind Bars, Confirms Yoko Gold Collaboration Dropping At Midnight

June 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It’s been over half a year since Tory Lanez was found guilty in his shooting trial against Megan Thee Stallion. Still, the “Say It” singer remains without a sentence. His court date was recently rescheduled to August 7, and prosecutors are seeking 13 years for him. However, Lanez’s defense attorneys are working overtime with attempts to disqualify the preceding judge on the case. Unfortunately for him, their attempts appear to only be failing. On Sunday (June 18), the father of one’s Instagram feed lit up with a message for his fans. Along with that came an exciting announcement about new music arriving at midnight.

“To my Family, my Friends, and to the Umbellas worldwide, I want y’all to know I haven’t lost my faith in God and that I’m in high spirits,” Lanez wrote in a screenshot from his Notes app. “I’m praying for the best and remain confident that God will bring me through this. I have spent the last seven months rehabilitating my mind, my body, and my soul,” the R&B star went on to share. “Though I came to jail a good person, I will leave as a great person. I’ve turned this jail cell into my work office.”

Lanez then promised his plans to “continue the legacy of the Umbrella from here or anywhere else.” His goal at this time is to shine his positive light brightly to aid anyone who may be in need. “With that being said, all things One Umbrella will now be promoted on my main page through my team at my command. New music, merch, and updates start dropping tonight.” To conclude his post, the embattled star shared that his Yoko Gold collaboration, called “Hurts Me” will land on DSPs on Monday (June 19).

While Tory Lanez continues to push through his struggles on the inside, in the outside world, Kylie Jenner is facing backlash for bumping one of his unreleased tracks in a recent TikTok. As you may recall, the Canadian artist was at the reality star’s house with Megan Thee Stallion on the night when the Houston hottie was shot.

Rot Ken Arrested On Murder & Aggravated Assault Charges In Connection With April Shooting

June 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

While all the new music that’s been dropping certainly has our attention, what’s really been taking over the world of rap news lately is a serious crime spree. Both the YSL RICO and YNW Melly’s double murder trials are currently unfolding, and Tory Lanez is still awaiting sentencing after he was jailed for shooting Megan Thee Stallion in late 2022. In addition to those, we saw Boosie Badazz get picked up by federal agents earlier this week. Now, Blanco Tarantino TV reports that 19-year-old rapper Rot Ken has also been taken into custody.

The up-and-coming Atlanta artist – born Kenneth Williams – is facing charges of murder and aggravated assault. Allegations against him stem from a shooting on April 26, ultimately resulting in the death of 24-year-old Usaini Yunusa. 20-year-old Kobe Burns was injured at the time too but thankfully managed to recover. Police reports reveal that the gunfire took place around 6 PM at The Estates at Perimeter on St. Andrews Drive. The accused killers are said to have taken aim at the victims in their vehicle from another car.

Rot Ken’s Mugshot Surfaces Online

Burns, who was allegedly intoxicated when the shooting started, quickly fled the scene. Unfortunately, it wasn’t long before he crashed into trees near Interstate Parkway and was later transported to the hospital. There is apparently another suspect connected to the case alongside Ken, though their identity hasn’t been released at this time. Information remains mostly sparse at this time. However, it has been noted that the late Yunusa previously served prison time in Cobb County for weapons-related offences, drug dealing, and gang activity.

As for Rot Ken, he was served his murder warrant while already behind bars for an offence related to his probation. His past criminal record contains convictions including possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony, burglary, an theft by receiving stolen property. Elsewhere in the realm of crime and hip-hop, a Memphis man named CEO Teezy was killed earlier this month. His unexpected death came shortly after he was publicly named a person of interest in Young Dolph’s murder, which still remains unsolved by authorities. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more music/pop culture news updates.

Jacky Oh’s Plastic Surgeon Speaks Out For The First Time Since Her Tragic Death

June 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It’s already been two weeks since Jacky Oh’s unexpected death left her partner, DC Young Fly, a single father of three children. Thanks to his strong support system and unwavering faith in God, the comedian has been moving through the situation with grace. Nevertheless, it’s been challenging to lose his other half – especially after seeing Dr. Zach Okhah’s first statement about the situation. The plastic surgeon spoke out on Friday (June 16). Since then, many social media users have made it known that they’re unimpressed with his comments.

“To all my past, current, and prospective patients, PH-1 Miami remains devoted to the highest quality of medical care,” he wrote. “All aesthetic procedures are performed in a hygienically safe environment to universally recognized medical standards.” Furthermore, Okhah made it clear that he’s “relentlessly committed to advancing techniques in the realm of plastic surgery.” Because of this, he and his staff claim to “ensure that each patient is vetted, prepped, and treated according to their individual patient history prior to any surgery.”

A post shared by Zachary Okhah, MD (@therealdrzach)

Dr. Okhah’s mission is to “help patients achieve the best possible results in the safest and most medically appropriate way.” Of course, he makes no mention of Oh’s fatality in his post, nor does he offer condolences to her family. Comments have been turned off, but that hasn’t stopped people from ranting about the situation on their own profiles. From the last we heard, the investigation into the blonde beauty’s death is still ongoing.

As loved ones continue to mourn the late Jacky Oh, Azealia Banks is facing significant backlash for her comments. Not only are music lovers slamming the “212” hitmaker, but Banks was also clowned by Freddie Gibbs over her controversial rant. Read what he had to say at the link below, and check back later for more pop culture news updates. RIP.

Machine Gun Kelly & Daughter Casie Baker Attend Dolce & Gabbana’s Milan Runway Show

June 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

While some famous fathers keep their children front and centre on their Instagram feed (such as Diddy), others prefer to shield their young ones from the spotlight when possible. Among the latter category is Machine Gun Kelly, who’s been a dad to Casie Colson Baker for the past 13 years. The rapper and his daughter’s mom have obviously gone their separate ways since, but he and his only child continue to make occasional public appearances together. Their most recent outing took place in Milan during the ongoing Fashion Week, specifically at the Dolce and Gabbana presentation.

The recording artist and his teenage daughter both donned all-black outfits for the occasion. While MGK layered a leather jacket over an incredibly low-cut t-shirt, Casie wore a classy dress with a sheer midsection. She completed her look with layered chunky gold necklaces and pearl droplet earrings, the latter of which her dad was also wearing. In addition, Kelly drew more attention to his face with a fishnet mask and some subtle blue and white eyeshadow.

The event took place on Saturday (June 17), as the Italian brand revealed its Spring/Summer 2024 menswear collection. As DailyMail notes, Kelly has been a frequent supporter of D&G over the past few years. In 2022, he walked the runway in complete silence, confidently strutting in front of a massive LED screen reading his name out in bright pink graffiti. Thankfully, the silence was followed by a rousing performance from the multi-talent, who’s been spotted on multiple festival stages over the past few months.

Elsewhere in the world of hip-hop, Jack Harlow finally responded to Machine Gun Kelly’s diss on his “Renegade (Freestyle)” track. As you may recall, the father of one accused the Kentucky native of stealing Drake’s flow while also throwing in a few other insults. Read everything Harlow had to say on the Rap Radar podcast last week at the link below and check back later for more music/pop culture news updates.

YNW Melly’s 2015 Interrogation Footage Surfaces Online Amid Double-Murder Trial

June 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It’s long been said that there’s no such thing as bad publicity. At this time, that cliché is proving to be somewhat true for YNW Melly. As his double-murder trial finally kicked off earlier this month, the 23-year-old saw a sudden boost in his streaming numbers. Consequently, tracks like “Murder on My Mind” and “Suicidal” have been skyrocketing. This has been exciting for both Melly and fans to witness. Nevertheless, not all the attention coming from his ongoing case has been flattering.

Apart from discovering his music, internet sleuths have also unearthed 2015 interrogation footage that shows the Florida native speaking with police about an unrelated incident. At the time, Melly was still a teenager, which has caused some to question the legalities of the recorded conversation between the rapper and the authorities. The 45-minute video is the first in a series of three, though the final two parts have yet to land on YouTube. It seems the next section will be shared on Tuesday (June 20) when Melly’s trial continues.

YNW Melly’s Underage Interrogation

Shorter clips from the full-length upload have been shared on blogs, many of them accusing YNW of snitching. “Is this the ni**a that sang ‘I gat murder on my mind ’?” one user asked in @akademiks’ Instagram comment section. “Ya better treat him the same way ya did Gunna and 6ix9ine ,” another person joked. Elsewhere, it’s been suggested that the video was intentionally leaked to alter the world’s perception of Melly. “The court system play a dirty game,” someone explained. “They specifically put this out to turn the public against him.”

Before the weekend began, YNW Melly’s ex-girlfriend’s mom was one of the final people to take the stand. During her testimony, the woman notably smiled at the accused killer before clarifying that she’s felt threatened by law enforcement throughout the legal process. Read everything she had to say at the link below and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Donald Trump Promises “Food For Everyone!” Before Leaving Restaurant Without Actually Paying

June 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Donald Trump promised to pay for “food for everyone!” at Miami’s Cuban restaurant, Versailles, earlier this week but left without actually paying for anyone to have a meal. The Miami New Times reports that, despite the offer, Trump only stayed for just minutes, giving no patrons enough time to place any orders that he could go through with covering.

“It turns out no one got anything. Not even a cafecito to-go,” the outlet noted from a source who remarked that the former President stayed for too short of a time to place an order. When reached out for comment by Newsweek, a Versailles said, “Sorry, I don’t know about that,” and promptly hung up. Jorge Masvidal was also present at the restaurant.

When asked for comment, a Trump spokesperson told PEOPLE: “President Trump was very enthused and very appreciative to the family at Versailles Restaurant for welcoming him this week. At the end of President Trump’s visit he offered to buy food for the group of attendees inside the restaurant, but when President Trump left, the attendees followed him outside and did not place orders themselves. Campaign advance team members paid for the to-go meals purchased, and there were no unpaid tabs. President Trump looks forward to returning soon!”

Trump’s appearance at Versailles comes after he pleaded not guilty to 37 criminal offenses following his indictment by a federal grand jury, last week. Among the worst charges are counts of retaining classified information, obstructing justice, and making false statements, among others. Some of the offenses carry prison sentences of up to 20 years.

Joe Biden Confusingly Remarks, “God Save The Queen”

June 17, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Joe Biden ended a speech in Connecticut at the National Safer Communities Summit at the University of Hartford on Friday by remarking, “God save the Queen, man,” to the audience. The comment comes months after the death of Queen Elizabeth II, who passed at the age of 96, last September.

When asked for context to the quote, White House Principal Deputy Press Secretary Olivia Alair Dalton told CT Insider that Biden was speaking directly to someone in the audience. “He couldn’t do the full rope line due to weather, and was commenting to someone in the crowd,” Dalton wrote in an email.

Biden previously reflected on Queen Elizabeth II’s passing in a White House statement, last year. “Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was more than a monarch. She defined an era,” Biden wrote at the time. “We first met the queen in 1982, traveling to the UK as part of a Senate delegation. And we were honored that she extended her hospitality to us in June 2021 during our first overseas trip as President and First Lady, where she charmed us with her wit, moved us with her kindness and generously shared with us her wisdom.”

— Clay Travis (@ClayTravis) June 16, 2023

Elsewhere in Biden’s speech, he called for several gun control measures including universal background checks and banning AR-15s. “A lot of you are tired. You’re tired. No, I get it. Try being 110 and doing it again,” Biden said. “Whether your Democrat or Republic we all want families to be safe. We all want to drop them off at a house of worship, a mall, a movie, a school door without worrying that’s the last time we’re ever see them.” The speech comes as Biden continues to prepare for the upcoming 2024 Presidential Election.
