Cam’Ron And Nia Long Link Up At Rich Paul’s Birthday After Actress Declares Herself “Outside”

by

Cam’ron finally had the opportunity to link up with his long-time crush Nia Long as they both attended the birthday party of Rich Paul. “He want the scoop, she want the tea. I can not talk, we keeping it street! @iamnialong aka Ni-Amore,” Cam’ron gushed on Instagram. Long kept her own caption a little more casual, simply saying “Nice meeting you @mr_camron. Happy Birthday @richpaul”. All this came after Long, who has kept away from the spotlight following the Ime Udoka drama, declared herself “outside” with a pre-party selfie.

Of course, Cam’ron has had a very public crush on Long for a good while. Earlier this month, Cam’ron revealed that after her split with Udoka, he had sent Long a lengthy DM. However, in revealing this, Cam’ron also noted that Long had left him on delivered and had not read the message.

Cam’ron Gets Massage From Joe Smith’s Wife

However, Cam’ron has been playing up his bad-boy persona this year. Kisha Chavis, the wife of ex-NBA player Joe Smith, returned to It Is What It Is at the request of Ma$e to provide his co-host, Cam’ron, a massage live on the show. The move is a throwback to a moment the week before when Chavis revealed during an interview on Check That Stat that one of her non-OnlyFans side hustles was running a massage business. Cam’ron hyper-fixated on this detail, asking Chavis if she would perform a massage on him.

Additionally, the move comes just a few days after Smith himself spoke out about Cam’ron’s conduct towards his wife. “It bothers me a lot. I did not just see that but the messages I got from people who actually went to her OnlyFans page. They sent it on Instagram [and] Facebook, talking about how my wife looks and what kind of pictures my wife got,” Smith told DJ Vlad as part of their ongoing interview about the subject.

Akbar V Finally Meets Drake At Houston Strip Club After Years Of Thirsting

by

Drake has been a busy guy throughout 2023. The Canadian superstar went on one of the most successful tours this calendar year with the It’s All A Blur Tour. Plenty of celebrities and guest rappers accompanied him throughout tons of locations in the United States. Then, Drake delivered his highly-anticipated release, For All The Dogs. While it was a bit disappointing for some, especially after fans felt the got hoodwinked out of hearing the “old Drake,” it was a massive success regardless.

He also followed it up quickly with the Scary Hours Edition, which added six more rap-centric cuts. That was a welcome surprise with him saying he was thinking about taking a year or two off. Now, he has some downtime before the extension of his previous tour gets a second leg with J. Cole. Big As The What? kicks off in mid-January. The Boy popped out to a Houston strip club for a night out, and he ran into a die-hard fan.

Akbar V, a female rapper, reality star, and YouTuber, has been keeping her eye on Drake’s dating status for years. Some of her tweets relating to him date back to early 2021. She hilariously attempted to shoot her shot at him after he posted some thirst-trap-worthy photos that showed off his gym progress. Akbar took it a step further, seeing as she liked what the rapper was packing if you catch our drift. “And I was wondering, could I test drive it?” All of those attempts finally paid dividends as both got to meet each other in person for the first time. She posted a picture with her dream man on Instagram with them hugging. The caption reads, “Icky @champagnepapi the illest n**** to do this shiii #privateparty.”

What are your initial thoughts on Drake and Akbar V meeting at a strip club in Houston? Why do you think it took so long for these two to finally link?

Travis Scott & Kai Cenat Link Up, Fans Hope A Joint Stream Is On The Way

by

Kai Cenat continues to build his hip-hop crossover history, with his most recent link-up being with none other than Travis Scott. Moreover, we just have a picture of the two to go off of, but this already has people quite excited about a potential stream together. Of course, the Twitch giant is well-known for hosting rappers and other celebrities for some fun for the chat. But this would probably be his biggest on-stream appearance to date, particularly if they host it in person and not just a FaceTime or video call. Most recently, he appeared on Gillie and Wallo’s Million Dollaz Worth Of Game podcast, defending the Bronx in hilarious fashion.

Furthermore, this actually wouldn’t be the first time that these two worlds cross over, although it’s the first recorded in-person instance of it. Let’s set the stage: Kai Cenat was at TwitchCon, trying to get the company’s head honcho to unban his fellow streaming giant, IShowSpeed. Travis Scott, a streaming giant in a different realm, reposted a picture of the exchange, seemingly cosigning the unban efforts. Either that, or he just wanted to show that he’s tapped into what these content creators are doing and showing his support.

Kai Cenat & Travis Scott Chill Out Together

However, not all of the New York media personality’s relationships within the hip-hop world are positive. For example, Kai Cenat recently expressed shock when he learned that Blueface apparently doesn’t like him, and wondered what he ever didd wrong to upset him. We do know that he’s crossed paths with the rapper’s former boo and baby mama, Chrisean Rock, so that’s likely the point of contention. But since they had all streamed together before, this came as a bit of a surprise that had the 21-year-old feeling slightly indignant.

Meanwhile, La Flame is living large on the CIRCUS MAXIMUS tour in support of his new album, UTOPIA. Most recently, he brought out Future for his tour stop in Brooklyn, and they shut the place down. Maybe the Houston creative’s Big Apple adventures are what might lead him to work with the streamer more. On that note, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Kai Cenat and Travis Scott.

Boosie Badazz & Crip Mac Finally Link Up

by

Recently, Boosie Badazz linked up with Crip Mac. It’s unclear if the duo actually got to spend any real time together, or if they simply posed for a few photos. Regardless, they appeared to be in good spirits. It’s not the first time the two of them have connected, however, as the pair also recently did a live stream together.

During the live, which took place sometime at the beginning of this month, they made it clear that they have mutual respect for one another. “I f*ck with C Mac,” Boosie told him. “I love your music, man,” he responded. Crip Mac went on to tell Boosie that he’s glad he’s a free man following his recent legal issues, which saw him spending some time behind bars.

Boosie then told him that he’s interesting in a collab, and Crip Mac seemed to be all for it. The Louisiana-born rapper also let him know that he’d be in LA at the end of this month, and it appears as though they’ve gone through with their plans to meet. While it’s uncertain whether or not the duo will be dropping anything in the near future, fans can only hope.

Boosie’s been wrapped up in his ongoing beef with Yung Bleu as of late, and Crip Mac seems to have no problem starting some feuds of his own. Last week, he shot his shot with Chrisean Rock, shading her ex Blueface in the process. “If you wanna deal with a real crip – a real crip that can take care of kids and do real nifty things, you gon’ f**k with 55th street… Certified crip cr*zy,” he told Chrisean in a clip. What do you think of Boosie Badazz linking up with Crip Mac? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

GloRilla Has Adorable Reaction To Meeting Mike Tomlin: Watch

by

GloRilla recently got the chance to meet someone she’s been a fan of for years – Mike Tomlin. In a recently shared video, the rapper linked up with the longtime Steelers head coach, practically running down a corridor to give him a big hug. As they try to swap introductions, Glo cuts Tomlin off to eagerly say “Yes, I know who you are”. Just as quickly, Tomlin replied, “And I know who you are!” The video is just all kinds of heart-warming.

Despite being born and raised in Memphis, Glo apparently has big love for the coach who has led the Steelers since 2007. Tomlin is originally from Virginia but has an extensive coaching history. His coaching journey took him through VMI, Memphis, Arkansas State, and Cincinnati at the college level before he jumped to the NFL in 2001. After positional stints with Tampa Bay and Minnesota, Tomlin landed his first head coaching gig with the Steelers. Tomlin has won two Super Bowls – with the Buccs in 2003 and with the Steelers in 2009.

Blueface Continues Rams Beef After Steelers Loss And Strip Club Debacle

Tomlin most recently coached the Steelers to a 24-17 win over the Rams. However, that has been overshadowed by a beef between rapper Blueface and the wife of the Rams’ starting QB. Kelly Stafford voiced her displeasure over Blue turning a suite at SoFi Stadium into an impromptu strip club during last weekend’s game. In particular, Stafford was upset that her children were exposed to the footage. Furthermore, she argued that Blue’s antics violated the family-friendly nature of an NFL game.

Blue recently shot back on social media, calling Stafford a “Karen” and telling her that LA is his territory. “Somebody tell Mathew stafford wife I been in LA longer then her an Matt. I run this program yall just here to work an make a living when y’all retire an go back to yo nice life I’ll still be here in LA at the rams games I don’t care how you feel about it,” the rapper said as part of a series of tweets attacking Stafford.

The two talented Chicago natives shared a sweet moment on camera that highlighted their brotherhood. “Real Chicago legends right here, that’s my big brother right here,” Famous Dex said to the camera. “Chicago s**t.”

Fans of Chicago’s rap scene have long awaited a collaboration between Famous Dex and G Herbo, both of whom have carved out their unique niches in the genre.

Both artists appeared genuinely thrilled to be in each other’s company, exemplifying the unity and camaraderie that’s integral to Chicago’s hip-hop culture.

The circumstances that I was up against that made me make certain decisions. It was always hope for me. I knew that I was gon’ make something of myself.” Stay tuned for more music news on HNHH.

Tyler, The Creator Links Up With Sampha

by

Tyler, The Creator is an influential voice in rap music in pretty much every way someone can be. He’s loved by nearly every everyone else in the genre and is often seen handing out with fellow artists. Last month during Paris Fashion Week he showed up to perform for Pharrell’s debut as Head of Menswear at Louis Vuitton. That show was also attended by rappers like Jay-Z, Offset, Pusha T, and more. Just a few days ago Lil Yachty clarified that it was Tyler who inspired him to try a new sound on his psychedelic rock album Let’s Start Here earlier this year.

Now Tyler, The Creator is handing out with one of the most acclaimed and also most mysterious singers in R&B. Sampha isn’t one of the genre’s most popular voices necessarily but those in the know understand that his unique vocals have been used to soundtrack so many brilliant songs. Rappers like Kendrick Lamar, Drake, and Stormzy as well as fellow R&B singers like Solange and Alicia Keys have called on Sampha’s talents before. Yesterday, pictures hit the internet of Tyler and Sampha hanging out together. While they aren’t in a studio and there’s no official confirmation of new music it would certainly be a meeting of heavy-hitters.

Tyler, The Creator And Sampha Hanging Out

Tyler, The Creator has also had an eventful year musically. In March he released The Estate Sale a deluxe edition of his album Call me If You Get Lost from 2021. The new extended tracklist includes songs with A$AP Rocky, YG, and Vince Staples.

Tyler, The Creator hasn’t just been making waves with new music either. His Flower Boy single “See You Again” with Kali Uchis has long been a fan favored. Recently the song blew up on TikTok. That buzz caused it to soar to a new peak on the Hot 100 6 years after it was released. Last week Tyler celebrated the song reaching one billion streams on Spotify. What do you think of Tyler, The Creator and Sampha linking up? Let us know in the comment section below.

Lil Wayne Gets House Visit From Skip Bayless

by

Lil Wayne and Skip Bayless have quite the special and unexpected relationship. Moreover, the NBA commentary star recently swung by Weezy’s house, which is far from the first time they’ve linked up in private settings. For example, the New Orleans rapper’s pregame for Rolling Loud Los Angeles this year was nothing other than a chat with Bayless at the former’s home. Given that Tunechi has often stopped by his show to talk about sports, and how they say they talk about so much more behind closed doors, this definitely won’t be the last time we see them together. However, recent news showed how their joint efforts to help out one of the most divisive NBA stars right now allegedly weren’t as well-received as they intended.

Furthermore, according to Skip Bayless on his podcast, Ja Morant refused to have Bayless connect him with the legendary MC. “Lil Wayne texted me,” the LeBron hater remarked. “He said, ‘Hey, can you connect me with Ja? Because I could help him. I’ve been there. I’ve done all this. I wound up in prison on Riker’s Island. [Wayne] knows what happens. I know where you can go wrong and I know what’s right.’ I said, ‘I’ll try.’ I reached out to Ja; ‘Would you sit with Lil Wayne? Would you talk with Lil Wayne?’ Wayne would fly to Memphis in a heartbeat tonight. Wayne would private plane it and go right to Memphis if he thought he could save a career and a soul.” Apparently, Bayless never heard back, though the Grizzlies guard would probably and understandably might like to keep things private right now.

Skip Bayless Visits Lil Wayne

Regardless, Bayless explained why the two are such good friends, and why they’ll continue to support each other in endeavors like these. In a quote-tweet of a clip of his breakdown, he summed things up. “I am deeply proud of my relationship with Lil Wayne,” he expressed. “I love the man and I am so proud of him for what he has become. There’s only one other human I talk sports with off-air…that’s Wayne.”

Meanwhile, many joked that the 40-year-old MC could be the next co-host of Undisputed. While that would be an absolute treat to see, he’s also quite the busy man. Regardless, we’re sure that there will only be more great moments and discussions from these two to come. On that note, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on Skip Bayless and Lil Wayne.

Nicki Minaj Poses With Brooke Bailey

by

It seems like Nicki Minaj found a new wine bestie in “Basketball Wives” star Brooke Bailey, which is always important to have by your side if you’re a fan of a glass every once in a while. Moreover, the rapper posted some pictures of them together on her Instagram Story. “She my lil vibe my lil ah ah ah,” she captioned the post. Of course, Bailey took to the comments section to hype themselves up even more as they enjoyed a glass of wine together in stylish fits. “Queen Tingz,” the reality star wrote under the post.

Unfortunately, the last news we heard from Brooke Bailey was much more tragic than a good time with Nicki Minaj. Back in September of 2022, she confirmed that her daughter Kayla lost her life in a car crash. “Forever my baby, Pretty Black aka Kayla Nicole Bailey,” she expressed on Instagram. “This is not a goodbye. Mommy will see you soon.” In a separate post, she thanked fans for their overwhelming support and condolences during that grueling time. Hopefully Minaj was also able to provide some light into her life, however minimal a drink together may seem at first glance.

“My baby girl is so loved by all of youuuuu!!!” Brooke Bailey wrote. “The love and support my family has received today is unreal and so appreciated. Thank you! Kayla left a mark on so many lives. She entered the room and demanded respect, love, and attention. If you had the pleasure of meeting her and being friends with her, she has forever changed your life. It was God preparing me for this moment in my life,” she remarked concerning her fasting and and praying just days before the tragedy, though she thought it was for something else. “Although I was not prepared. I am grateful for the 25 years he blessed me to have HIS child. To love her, to hold her, to teach her, to comfort her. She was my happiness on Earth.” Sadly for Nicki Minaj, she also has her own experiences with grief.

However, it’s at least heartening to see the two have a good time and show each other love and support in that way. Amid a lot of new releases and drops from the “Red Ruby Da Sleeze” MC, it can be hard to keep sight of that. While those wounds never truly heal, there is always the chance to move forward and keep those memories alive. For the latest news and updates from Nicki Minaj and Brooke Bailey, log back into HNHH.

Nelly And Ashanti Link Up At Davis-Garcia Fight

by

Nelly and Ashanti were once a musical power couple. They first met in 2003 during a press conference for the Grammys and quickly entered into a relationship. The couple stayed together for 11 years before breaking up in 2014. Nelly then entered into a long-term relationship with Shantel Jackson while Ashanti was linked to the likes of Ja Rule and Flo Rida. While not often seen together, Nelly and Ashanti appeared to stay on good terms.

However, the end of 2022 brought with it rumors that Nelly and Ashanti were reuniting. First, there was an intimate dance the two shared at the December 5 “Under the Mistletoe” concert. A week later, Ashanti openly spoke about the rumors they were getting back together and said she would collab with Nelly again. Most recently, Ashanti was caught sporting Nelly’s chain in February, further fuelling the rumors.

On April 22, a veritable who’s who of star power descended on Las Vegas for the highly-anticipated boxing match between Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia. As opposed to the all-out knockout brawl promised by the fighters, fans were treated to a paced and calculated fight. Davis eventually prevailed, delivering a crippling body blow knockout in the seventh round. However, keen-eyed gossip sleuths weren’t paying attention to the fight. How could they, given the wealth of famous faces in the audience? Despite the plethora of celebrities, one group of attendees, in particular, has got the internet buzzing.

Nelly and Ashanti were spotted attending the fight together, with seats a few rows back from the ring. While the footage is brief, Nelly and Ashanti can clearly be seen amongst their sprawling entourage. So what does this mean? On the one hand, it could simply be a friendly outing by exes clearly on good terms. Davis v Garcia was the event to be at on Saturday night so it makes sense that they were there. However, fans have run wild with speculation. “He couldn’t take seeing those vacation pics anymore,” wrote one fan on Instagram. However, neither side has publicly confirmed that they have officially rekindled their romance. If they do, you know you’ll find all the details here on HotNewHipHop.
