Mike Dean Has A Question About Kanye West’s Uncovered Storage Unit

August 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Mike Dean hopped onto TikTok to inquire about a storage unit full of items that apparently previously belonged to Kanye West or members of his team. User @lockerblocker20 came across the storage unit and showed off what they found inside, earlier this week. In response, Dean hopped in the comments section to ask: “Any Mike Dean cases in there?”

While the creator responded “No,” they did find plenty of other interesting items. There were costumes from West’s iconic “Sunday Service” events, various pieces of audio equipment, Yeezy design notes, and much more. Apart from Mike Dean, other users in the comments had plenty of jokes about the situation. “Kim told him to come get his stuff and she stuck it in a storage unit lol,” one top comment reads. Another fan noted: “This is Kanye’s design patterns. This is WILD. This has to be worth some dollars.”

Despite Dean’s inquiry, he and Kanye West had a bit of a falling out back in 2022. After the controversial rapper shared a series of antisemitic posts on social media, Dean posted a statement from Steve Angello online, in which the Swedish House Mafia member reacted to Ye going on Alex Jones’ InfoWars show. “When media attention becomes more important than like itself, you’re on a slippery slope,” wrote Angello. “Saying provocative things to trigger social media for clicks and action is pathetic.” A year later, a fan on X (formerly Twitter) asked why he hadn’t been collaborating with West as of late. “Because I’m busy with much cooler people,” Dean responded.

Lil Wayne’s Handwritten Song Lyrics Go On Sale For $5 Million After Legal Battle

August 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Back in 2019, autograph dealers Moments In Time listed one of Lil Wayne’s old notebooks on sale for $250K. Reportedly, it contains lyrics to tracks like “I Feel” and “We On Fire,” likely written when Weezy was still a teenager. According to the man who discovered the notebook, he found it in an old car previously owned by Cash Money Records and decided to store it in his garage.

When Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans, however, it was nearly destroyed. He returned home to find that it had survived with minimal damage and decided to sell it to anyone willing to part ways with that kind of cash. Lil Wayne eventually caught wind of the listing, and his attorneys sent a warning letter to the man trying to sell the notebook, claiming that the rapper wanted it back.

Moments In Time Defends Massive Price Increase

The man refused, insisting that Wayne would have to buy it from him, as he had “crystal clear title.” Weezy didn’t respond after that, prompting the court to rule in the seller’s favor. Now, after all the fuss, the same notebook is on sale for a whopping $5 million. According to TMZ, Moments In Time justified the massive price increase by noting that Lil Wayne is the GOAT, making his handwritten lyrics from the 90s extremely valuable.

It’d be tough to argue against that, though it’s unclear how the artist feels about someone else cashing in on his original work. What do you think of Lil Wayne’s old lyric notebook going up for sale for $5 million? What about him previously trying to get the notebook back?

Kanye West’s Infamous “F*ck Adidas” MBDTF Vinyl Hits Auction Block And The Asking Price Is Out Of This World

May 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West has made some iconic albums during this time as an artist. Overall, one could make the argument that he has the most classic records out of any artist in hip-hop. Moreover, if you expand outside of the genre, you will be hard-pressed to find any artist with as many classics as him. One of those classics is the 2010 masterpiece My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, which many believe to be his best record. Others look to his original trilogy, while some even believe that Yeezus is his best work.

If you remember, back in February, a fan had him sign a vinyl version of MBDTF. As you can see in the video clip below, he wrote “F*ck Adidas” on it. The vinyl record is now being placed on the auction block through Moments in Time. Of course, there is a bit of a catch here. According to TMZ, the vinyl will be sold for over $500K. They won’t accept any bids below that, which means anyone who wants this piece is going to have to shell out a whole lot of money.

Kanye West Signed The Vinyl Record Just A Few Months Ago

It is an ambitious asking price that could very well prove to be a bit too much. However, this is Kanye we are talking about. Ye always seems to attract some large investors, and with memorabilia prices soaring in all domains, this could prove to be a lucrative deal. It also helps that the album in question is something as legendary as My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy.

Let us know what you think of this auction, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that $500K is too much for this kind of memorabilia? If you had unlimited funds, what would you pay for something like this? 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.

Snoop Dogg Auction Includes Loads Of Personal Memorabilia Including A Used Blunt

May 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

You are not going to find to many artists who have had a more successful and expansive career than Snoop Dogg. From movies and music to fashion and alcohol, the California legend has been able to create so many avenues for himself. He is easily one of the more influential names the genre has ever seen and there will truly never be another mogul like him. Because of how many different corners of the business world that he has explored, Snoop Dogg has been able to launch a personal memorabilia auction. According to a report from AllHipHop, he teamed up with DJ Skee who happens to run a memorabilia authentication and auction company called The Realest.

The live bidding has already begun as of earlier today and was announced the day before. It appears that the war to receive some of Snoop’s most prized possessions will end on June 16. One of the items that has been getting a lot of traction on Skee’s website so far has been a used blunt from Dogg. Also referred to as roach weed, meaning it was smoked until nearly the very end of the blunt.

Snoop Dogg’s Auction Has Already Kicked Off And Will End Soon

“A 1-of-1 actual blunt smoked by Snoop Dogg. Preserved in resin in Snoop’s personal ashtray to display for eternity, this is an auction piece like no other. This is the first ever authenticated Snoop Dogg roach, making it one of the most unique pieces of memorabilia ever created.” At the time of writing the highest bid sits at $439.00. Other items include chains, scripts, clothes, plaques, and more.

What are your thoughts on this Snoop Dogg memorabilia auction? Do you think this could be a smart idea for artists going forward to make extra money? What item do you find to be the most bizarre?

Juice WRLD’s Girlfriend Ally Lotti Allegedly Sells His Clothes On OnlyFans

March 6, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In recent months, Juice WRLD’s former girlfriend Ally Lotti has found herself at the center of a fair amount of controversy. In January, for instance, the OnlyFans model received a ton of backlash for allegedly leaking a sex tape featuring the late rapper on the primarily adult platform. Now, she’s come under fire once again, this time for seemingly trying to sell his clothes on the site.

In a new screenshot making its rounds online, Lotti appears to agree to sell a fan Juice WRLD’s Supreme Louis Vuitton hoodie for $3K. In the messages, she claims that several other supporters were also looking to buy the item, urging them to hurry up and pay if they wanted it. She’s now receiving a great deal of criticism from Twitter/X commenters, who agree that the apparent sale feels cold, to say the least.

“Nobody has disrespected this man more since his passing [than] her,” one user writes. “What happened to shame?” another wonders. While plenty of commenters think Lotti is guilty of exploiting her ex and his passing, others are coming to her defense, arguing that she’s simply selling clothing she wouldn’t otherwise use to fans who would enjoy it. Unfortunately, however, this isn’t the first time she’s been accused of mishandling Juice WRLD’s belongings.

Last year, 600 Breezy claimed that Lotti might’ve given her new man, Carter Jamison, Juice WRLD’s clothes and jewelry. “I be seeing what’s going on with his ex,” he explained. “They claiming she giving up his watches and coats and jackets and sh*t. I’m not just gon’ sit here and say she doin’ that, because I don’t really know what’s going on. Maybe she just buying [her new boyfriend] the same type of sh*t.” What do you think of Juice WRLD’s girlfriend Ally Lotti allegedly selling his clothes on OnlyFans? Do you think she deserves the backlash she’s receiving online, or are social media users overreacting? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

2Pac’s Handwritten Lyrics To “Throw Ya Handz Up” Up For Auction

February 28, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In the world of hip-hop memorabilia, 2pac is one of the biggest names. Earlier this year a ring he wore in his final public appearance fetched a million dollar price tag at auction. Reports claimed that it was actually Drake who bought it. Fittingly, the rapper was spotted just a few days later sporting the ring. Last month, an autographed ticket from a San Francico show early in Pac’s career was also sold at auction. It fetched an impressive price tag of its own when it was eventually sold.

Now a new piece of 2pac memorabilia is up for auction and it’s an even more intimate item. A paper with the lyrics of Pac’s track “Throw Ya Handz Up” that’s handwritten by Shakur himself is currently up for auction. It features 16 lines of lyrics from the song and was originally a part of one of the rapper’s lyric books. “The song is one of Pac’s finest protest songs and wasn’t released until 1995 on the Pump Ya Fist inspired by the Black Panthers album,” the auction listing reads. “Handwritten lyrics to published songs from Tupac are scarce and some of the most coveted pieces of Tupac memorabilia in the hobby,” it concludes. Check out the page itself below.

Much of the news surrounding 2pac recently has surrounded Keefe D. He’s the man who was arrested and charged with his murder last year. Keefe D has a long history of going on various shows and podcasts and discussing details of the case. Some of those details likely contributed to his eventual arrest.

His trial isn’t scheduled to start until later this year but new developments are already happening. Earlier this week, a retired cop claimed that Keefe D’s nephew bragged about and confessed to being responsible for 2pac’s murder. What do you think of a handwritten lyric sheet from 2pac being auctioned off? How much do you expect the piece to eventually sell for? Let us know in the comment section below.

2pac Ticket Autographed By The Late Rapper To Be Auctioned Off

January 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Fans of classic hip-hop and collectors of vintage memorabilia from the genre have the chance to secure a rare find. Earlier this week an auction house announced that they’re going to be auctioning off an incredibly rare 2pac find. The piece in question is a concert ticket signed by the rap legend. The show took place in 1992, just a few months after the release of his debut album 2pacalypse Now. The ticket is for a show at San Francisco’s Warfield that also featured Digital Underground.

While the ticket itself is a nice find, the signature is what makes the collectible so valuable. “PEACE 2U 2PAC” the signature on the ticket reads. It’s a simple message but one that makes it so much rarer of a find and hip-hop collectors have taken notice. The auction begins later this week on January 26 and it’s impossible to say how high it could get. Last year, a ring worn by the rapper was auctioned off for more than $1 million. Check out pictures of the ticket itself below.

2pac’s name has been in the news quite a bit in recent months. That began last year when Las Vegas police executed a raid that was tied to the investigation surrounding his murder. That eventually led to the arrest of Keefe D who was subsequently charged with the legendary rapper’s murder. Keefe has repeatedly done interviews online where he’s discussed details of the case and his reported involvement in it.

Though his trial hasn’t even started yet there’s been plenty of drama surrounding Keefe D. He’s had repeated trouble with lawyers and just replaced his legal team once again last week. He pleaded not guilty to the accusations and is claiming that many of his comments online are exaggerated for entertainment. What do you think of an autographed 2pac ticket going to auction later this week? How much do you think the ticket will end up selling for? Let us know in the comment section below.

November 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Two rare pieces of memorabilia from the late 2Pac and Biggie Smalls went up for sale recently, giving lucky buyers a chance at feeling closer than ever to the musical icons. The site Momentsintime.com is selling their fingerprint cards, which were created after both of their 1995 arrests. Aside from their fingerprints, the cards also feature signatures from the two men. Of course, they signed off with their government names instead of their rap monikers, making for some even more exclusive collectibles.

While the pieces will surely go fast, it won’t be for cheap. Reportedly, each of the cards is listed at a whopping $225K. It seems steep, but it’s a small price to pay for such a pivotal piece of cultural history. These aren’t the only rare items exciting hip-hop enthusiasts as of late, however.

At the end of October, it was reported that 2Pac’s booking photo and prison ID car were also going up for sale. The booking photo was listed for $35k while the ID, which came alongside a handwritten note from the hitmaker, was listed for $75k. “I lost my ID and need a new one. Thank you,” the note reads, complete with 2Pac’s signature. TMZ reported that the items were given to the performer’s family when he was released from prison in October 1995, and later made their way into the hands of a collector who was willing to part ways with them.

2Pac had served 11 months at the Clinton Correctional Facility in New York on sexual abuse charges. The Notorious B.I.G. was booked for aggravated assault and robbery, but his charges were eventually dropped.

Juice WRLD’s Ex Ally Lotti Allegedly Selling Memorabilia For $30K Online

June 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The tragic passing of Juice WRLD continues to affect fans to this day, but they also continue celebrating his legacy with fondness. However, one large point of contention has been how much others should profit off of his name. The most recent piece of that puzzle concerns memorabilia like clothing items and accessories that he owned. At the very least, those closest to him seem to be making sure that these items are respected and authentic for fans that wish to buy them and support his loved ones. Moreover, the Chicago star’s ex-girlfriend, Ally Lotti, is reportedly selling various pieces for $30K, a price that’s apparently the total value of what she offered according to alleged DMs.

“Well I’m not truing to sell so I don’t have a price in mind,” Lotti wrote concerning Juice WRLD’s pieces according to supposed leaked screenshots of Instagram messages. “I got you on like a package deal or something but like it said this stuff is pretty priceless to me and is only going to be worth more money in the future. I would like to be walking away with like 30k honestly you know. So what’s your budget? We can figure out what we can do.”

In addition, fan pages put items up for sale for $40K individually after they allegedly verified their authenticity with the late legend’s ex. “I am selling the coveted Transparent Prism Louis Vuitton backpack that was once owned by the late and beloved Juice WRLD,” a fan page posted, later clarifying that they sought $40K for it. “This unique piece is not only a symbol of style but also a valuable collector’s item with a fascinating backstory. To ensure transparency and authenticity, I have acquired this backpack with the assistance of Ally Lotti, Juice WRLD’s ex-girlfriend, who was kind enough to provide proof and direct messages regarding its ownership.”

Furthermore, they asked for serious offers only, offered to share said DMs and negotiate price, and stressed the value of buyer satisfaction. Also, other pictures surfaced of alleged DMs of Lotti showing off other pieces like a shirt and eyewear. While many in the comments of coverage of this alleged sale expressed disappointment, those involved’s intentions can’t be assumed. Meanwhile, amid posthumous new music releases and incredible commercial success, his legacy keeps engaging fans. For more news and the latest updates on Juice WRLD, log back into HNHH.
