Finesse2tymes’ Son FNG King Performs NSFW Songs On Stage, Social Media Isn’t Feeling It

by

Since his long-awaited release from prison, Finesse2tymes has regularly stirred up controversy. The embattled artist has given us a handful of viral tracks. Still, listeners are having a hard time overlooking the way he chooses to live his life. Not only is the rapper in a polyamorous relationship with several women (which he regularly shows off in salacious photos online), but he also has unconventional parenting methods that have left many worried about the wellbeing of his 10-year-old son, FNG King.

In a video circulating on various blogs today (August 11), Finesse is seen performing with his little one. The child confidently yells out troubling lyrics about disregarding consent during sex. “Take this d**k, b**ch, stop pushing me,” the duo repeatedly yells out as the crowd cheers them on. While those in attendance seemed to be feeling the father-son bonding moment, many internet users are less than impressed. “That’s completely inappropriate to be telling that child to do that and he rapping that mess at the same time smh,” one person vented on Twitter.

“Kids have to be protected and exposing them to certain things at this age is so negligent. And honestly predatory,” another upset user wrote. “It’s ‘mind your own business’ when it comes to this but let a child say that they’re LGBT, they should wait until they’re 18 to decide. Okay,” someone else chimed in, seemingly referencing the debate sparked by Ne-Yo’s thoughts on transgender children earlier this month.

On the other hand, there are those who believe Finesse is doing right by keeping his son out of the streets. “Enjoying life instead of having to worry bout some bs going on stray bullets, wrong crowds, all stuff that go on in the hood. Some people keep they kids off the streets in different ways while y’all need to get y’all!🗣,” one such person expressed.

Travis Scott’s Circus Maximus Concert Injured Dozens Of Attendees

by

If there’s one thing you can always expect Travis Scott to inspire in people, it’s the rage. The father of two has a natural enthusiasm for life that’s undeniably contagious. Still, some would argue that he’s taken things too far a number of times over the years. His 2021 Astroworld Festival resulted in a ton of backlash for Scott after multiple people lost their lives during a tragic crowd crush. The “goosebumps” hitmaker stepped out of the spotlight for a brief period at that time. He’s since headlined festivals and, earlier this week, performed for 60,000 in Rome.

Scott was initially due to perform in Egypt at the Pyramids of Giza when UTOPIA first dropped, but that show was ultimately cancelled. Regardless, the Houston native brought an exuberant amount of energy to the historic Circus Maximus on Monday (August 7). Scott also surprised fans with an appearance from Kanye West, who hasn’t taken the stage since his controversial anti-Semitic rants. This obviously had the audience acting out in an even rowdier manner, and reportedly even led to a pepper spray incident.

As per Euro News, dozens were injured by the attack, and at least 60 sought medical treatment. Elsewhere at the show, a 14-year-old was hospitalized after falling four metres. He was apparently trying to sneak into Circus Maximus without security noticing, but ultimately hurt himself in the process. Earlier this summer one of Scott’s performances resulted in an earthquake, and this week’s was no different. Residents of Rome felt the Cactus Jack founder’s presence all throughout the city, and not all of them were pleased.

As La Flame’s listeners continue to revel in his long-awaited UTOPIA LP and Circus Maximus film, the multi-talent has been sharing more secrets about the making of his album. While he worked with an impressive roster of collaborators, including SZA, The Weeknd, and Beyonce, it turns out J. Cole nearly appeared on the record as well. Read more about what Scott said about that missed opportunity at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news.

Sexyy Red’s Reaction To DJ Mr. Rogers Missing Her Song Cues Surfaces: Video

by

Through her come-up so far, Sexyy Red has mostly managed to stay out of drama with other artists. The Hood Hottest Princess did find herself falling victim to Tasha K’s trolling, but thankfully, the rap diva’s mother managed to sort that situation up. This past weekend, however, DJ Mr. Rogers accused Red of cussing him out during a recent performance, at which time he apparently didn’t know the cues to her setlist. “Sexyy Red cussed me out today for not knowing her show cues like I’m her actual DJ,” he tweeted in the early hours of Sunday (August 6). “Love this new generation of artists.”

Rogers’ post makes it sound as though Red lashed out at him in an extreme manner, but a video making rounds on Monday afternoon has many internet users insisting that the drama is nowhere near as serious as it sounds. “Why you turn it off ni**a?!” the Missouri-born entertainer yells into her microphone as her song abruptly stops. “Run that s**t back,” she adds before hyping up another woman at the party twerking away in front of her.

DJ Mr. Rogers Felt Disrespected by Sexyy Red

Upon seeing the footage, one person commented, “Nahh ain’t no way he wrote that long ass tweet thread over THIS,” under @2cool2bl0g’s post. “Yoooo it was not that deep. If you read only his tweet and not see this video you would think she had a [wild] Kanye-type stage outburst 😂😂,” another user chimed in. Of course, there are still a handful who feel as though the producer was right to call Red out for swearing at him.

Obviously, we won’t see DJ Mr. Rogers championing the Sexyy Red fan club anytime soon. Thankfully, the St. Louis native has an abundance of other supporters from within the industry, such as Drake, Summer Walker, Trinidad James, and G Herbo. See how the latter duo has been showing out for Red at the link below, and tap back in later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Lil Meech Seemingly Avoids Saucy Santana & Summer Walker’s Twerking Antics

by

One rap diva who’s definitely not facing criticism for her stage presence these days is Sexyy Red. While other up-and-comers have been called out for relying too heavily on twerking and other salacious stunts, the St. Louis native has the men of rap lining up to meet her, and recent performances have been jam-packed. On Friday (August 4) night, the Hood Hottest Princess took the stage in Atlanta, and seeing as she’s friends with plenty of the city’s biggest names in music, she decided to bring them out as a surprise. Summer Walker was among the group, as were Saucy Santana and Sukihana.

As you may recall, the mother of three announced her split from BMF actor Lil Meech earlier this week and has been making the most of Hot Girl Summer since then. Interestingly, the 23-year-old was spotted in the crowd during Red’s performance, and while his ex was shaking her booty with her besties, Meech seemed to be doing his best to avoid looking in her general direction.

Since the video hit blogs this morning, Suki and Santana have hopped in the comment section to clear things up. “It’s a big screen where [you] can watch instead of looking at the stage,” the latter noted on a post from @theneighborhoodtalk. “FYI! And it’s gay boy twerking on stage. A lot of men [probably] wasn’t watching that part.”

The Love & Hip-Hop cast member also spoke up on Meech’s behalf, writing, “Childdddd he wasn’t being rude, he [probably] just didn’t want to see our cousin Santana’s Southern fried booty meat thrown in a circle.”

Drake Concert Attendee Dissed For Using Phone While Standing Feet Away From Rapper

by

For many Drake fans, the opportunity to experience one of his concerts from floor seats would be a dream come true – one that leaves them unable to take their eyes away from the performance unfolding in front of them. That definitely isn’t the case for everyone at his It’s All a Blur tour, even with the astoundingly expensive ticket prices. During a recent show of Champagne Papi’s, a female attendee caught the internet’s attention with the uninterested expression on her face amid the concert.

As the 36-year-old does his best to entertain the thousands watching on, one of those fortunate enough to be just feet away from him couldn’t stop checking her phone. Near the end of the clip she appears to be capturing a video of Drake singing, but still, social media isn’t letting her off easily. “Why she on her phone?” a TikTok user asked after catching the video. “The girl in the back trying hard to be mysterious ✨,” someone else speculated, suggesting that she thought playing nonchalant would attract the performer’s attention her way.

“Y’all getting mad she on her phone not knowing people deal with anxiety differently,” someone else chimed in, giving the anonymous woman some grace. Of course, this isn’t the first time we’ve seen a concert patron go viral this month. Just last week, the woman who threw her 36G bra on stage at Drizzy landed herself a deal with Playboy‘s content-selling service.

Drake recently wrapped up an impressive string of shows in New York City, and he couldn’t help but make an appearance at Starlets Strip Club. Not only did the Canadian leave behind Travis Scott’s UTOPIA briefcase, but he also spoke with Sidetalk NYC about what he looks for in a woman these days.

Machine Gun Kelly Punches Fan’s Face During Performance

by

Machine Gun Kelly has branded himself as a bad boy. The rockstar/rapper was performing Saturday, July 1st, in Belgium at the Rock Werchter Festival when a fan had a bizarre request. He was holding a sign that said, “I JUST CAME FROM MEXICO 4 U 2 PUNCH ME IN THE FACE.” That’s right: the fan was looking to get punched in the face by Machine Gun Kelly. In the video posted to Twitter, MGK finds the fan’s sign and starts to comment on it.

“Why do you want me to punch you in the face so bad?” MGK asks the fan. The man responds, “I love you!” Kelly continues to try to reason with the man: “I got rings on, dude. That sh*t’s gonna hurt.” He calls it a lose-lose situation for him but that he’ll consider it. Later in the video, MGK approaches the fan with the sign, shows the proof to the camera, and then proceeds to clock him right on the jaw.

Machine Gun Kelly’s Interesting Fan Interaction

While in the middle of Machine’s song “my ex’s best friend (with blackbear),” he went ahead and granted the fan’s request. Immediately following the punch, the fan gave the rocker a double thumbs up. MGK turned and threw an arm out to the fan, saying, “I love you.” The fans appreciated Machine Gun Kelly and all that he stands for, but sometimes they have some odd requests.

In other MGK news, he went to Dolce & Gabbana’s Milan Runway Show with his daughter, Casie Baker. They were wearing all-black outfits for the occasion. He has been on tour in Europe for a minute, with his daughter joining him for the summer fun. Machine Gun Kelly performed in France for the annual Hellfest, posting a bunch of pics from the event and his time in Paris back in June. He has 11 shows left in his European stint, after which he’ll switch over to North American and South American concerts.

Travis Scott Wilding On A Car At A Recent Show: Watch

by

Travis Scott is feeling fired up. The rapper was recently cleared of all wrongdoing from the 2021 Astroworld Festival tragedy, in which multiple people were injured and killed due to a swelling crowd. The civil and criminal charges were dropped, letting Travis move on with his life and career. His latest stunt: Hyping the crowds up yet again, this time jumping and performing on an SUV at Openair Frauenfeld. The biggest European hip-hop festival kicked things off with a bang, with Scott turning everything up to eleven.

Openair Frauenfeld 2023 goes from July 6th to the 8th, which means Travis Scott was the main opening act. Fans were over-the-moon with Scott’s performance. This makes sense, considering he’s always been a tremendous live performer. And while many speculated whether he’d dial it back due to the Astroworld tragedy in Houston a few years back, that wasn’t the case Thursday night. Travis is back to being 100 percent himself.

Travis Scott & The “UTOPIA” Drop

Travis Scott isn’t just driving the masses wild with his stage antics. He is ramping up marketing for his upcoming album, UTOPIA. His most recent tease comes via a new tour bus with the album title in big letters. He’s also been filming an album commercial all over the world, tagging the name on random buildings in Europe and other places. It’s been a minute since a new Scott tracklist surfaced, so UTOPIA is anticipated with wild expectations, for sure.

In other Travis Scott news, he was partying with Quavo and a ton of other music celebrities at Michael Rubin’s white-out party. The night featured everybody donning all-white clothing and cutting loose. Guests included Tom Brady, Kevin Hart, French Montana, Meek Mill, Odell Beckham, and James Harden. Mobbing with the stars and leaping on cars; it’s safe to say Travis is all the way back to his fast-life, go-wild self.

Travis Scott’s Milan Concert Causes Mini Earthquake

by

Aside from Lil Uzi Vert’s recently released Pink Tape, Travis Scott’s UTOPIA is one of the most highly anticipated albums of 2023. The father of two has been dropping hints about his upcoming work for months now. He may have even hinted at a potential release date on a recent billboard. Even without any new music out, Scott has also been back on the festival circuit this year. Most recently, he made a trip overseas to perform at various events across Europe.

While headlining Longitude Festival in Dublin, Ireland, the Houston native brought his new collaboration with LUV, “Aye” to the stage for the first time. That obviously made headlines along with other Pink Tape promotional antics. However, what’s really got the world talking is Scott’s show in Milan, Italy. According to news reports, it impacted not only attendees but also Mother Earth in a very serious way.

A post shared by Our Generation Music (@ourgenerationmusic)

As shown in the video on the last slide of the post above, Travis’ fans were so eager to see him back in action that a literal earthquake took place. “This ni**a different 😂 Thanos $cott,” one Instagram user wrote under @ourgenerationmusic’s post. “Firefighters [received] hundred of calls from the [neighbourhood], window and floor [trembling]. At the end, we’re Italian Travis fans😂🔥,” someone else who was seemingly at the show shared in the comments.

Others were quick to compare the incident to the rapper’s deadly 2021 concert, which forced him to spend several months out of the spotlight as blame was thrown his way for the tragic crowd crush that unfolded. Speaking of Astroworld Festival, it was announced last month that Travis Scott could face criminal charges over the fatal catastrophic event. After some deliberation, however, a jury decided to clear the father of two of any wrongdoing. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Lil Wayne’s Essence Festival Dance Moves Will Leave You Smiling: Watch

by

Lil Wayne is a man of great confidence – he did say that he’s his own only worthy Verzuz competitor, after all. From the stage to the studio, the Young Money leader has never shied away from speaking his truth and letting his bold personality shine through. Sometimes that finds Weezy ending live performances early due to a lacklustre response from his audience, and other times it shows him making surprise appearances and having a blast on stage.

The latter happened this past weekend at New Orleans’ Essence Festival. Wayne wasn’t on the lineup alongside headliners like Lauryn Hill and Megan Thee Stallion, however, locals were still happy to see Tha Carter himself in an all-pink Rick Owens outfit. In one video that’s making rounds online, Wayne pulls out a Michael Jackson-esque dance routine for his audience, though it was definitely lacking the King of Pop’s sharpness.

Lil Wayne Surprises Fans in New Orleans

“Michael Jackson on moon rocks 😂,” one IG user joked in @2cool2bl0g’s IG comments. “Old Wayne would’ve been dissin’ new Wayne,” someone else suggested. Thankfully there are still those who expressed their joy at seeing the “How to Love” hitmaker in good spirits. The smile that spreads across his face at the end of his dance break proves that Wayne was feeling himself, regardless of what any critics might have to say about him.

During his time on the Essence Festival stage, the Southern star rapped “A Milli” and other hits from his discography. While those in person at the event caught it live, people tuning in at home failed to witness Weezy’s appearance as it wasn’t included in the Hulu live stream. Outside the realm of hip-hop, Lil Wayne has also been connecting with Skip Bayless more frequently as of late. At the end of June, we received an update on their Undisputed project, which you can read all about at the link below. For more music/pop culture news updates, check back in with HNHH later.

Megan Thee Stallion’s Essence Festival Twerk Session Proves She’s Been Putting In Work At The Gym

by

The ladies of hip-hop and R&B brought plenty of heat to the Essence Festival stage this past weekend. From Janelle Monae continuing her salacious flashing streak during her performance to Megan Thee Stallion captivating us with her usual twerking antics, we’ve truly seen it all. The latter artist was a headliner at the annual event on Sunday (June 2) evening, following Lauryn Hill’s astonishing (albeit late) set the night before.

She hasn’t given us new music since 2022’s Traumazine, but still, the Houston Hottie has been booked and busy with performances over the past few months. Her first show of the year was at the AT&T Block Party, followed more recently by LA’s Pride in the Park celebration. All of them saw Thee Stallion shaking her booty in full force, though her most recent left plenty of jaws on the floor as her cake continues to grow thanks to all the hard work she’s been putting in at the gym.

Megan Thee Stallion Headlines Essence Festival 2023

During her time on stage, the Revlon ambassador ran through some of her discography’s biggest hits, including “Big Ole Freak,” “Body,” and “Plan B.” Elsewhere she performed her verse from Cardi B’s “WAP,” as well as the “S*vage (Remix),” sans Beyonce.

At Pride, Thee Stallion’s costume was black and silver in colour, leaving her shining bright like a diamond. For Essence Fest, she stepped out in a golden ensemble that gives a bold view of her chest and behind. Gold seems to be a personal favourite of the rap diva’s lately, as she wore a bikini in the same colour while filming a thirst trap video for Instagram this past weekend.
