Nick Cannon Admits He Mixed Up Mother’s Day Cards: “I Tried My Best”

May 17, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Nick Cannon says that he mixed up the Mother’s Day cards he made for the women in his life, last weekend. Reflecting on the holiday during Monday’s episode of his new radio show The Daily Cannon, he admitted that he gave the wrong cards out to different mothers of his many children.

“I tried my best, I really did,” he said on the show. He added: “To show people how you really feel, write it down. And I was doing handwritten messages from the heart. So then as I’m writing the handwritten message, I get the cards mixed up. And then so when one baby mama reads the card about how I feel about the other baby mama…” From there, he joked, “See if I would just got some generic s–t that everybody else got, that wouldn’t have happened.”

Fans were not happy with the light-hearted tone Cannon was taking while recounting the story. Commenting on his Instagram post of the clip, one fan wrote: “The absolute crazy thing is he’s talking to a baby mama about it…and she’s sitting there smiling like she’s not hurt.” Another added: “I have so many negative thoughts about Nick after hearing this. I’m going to keep them to myself and just move on. Smdh.”

All-in-all, Cannon shares his 12 children with six different mothers. They include his ex-wife Mariah Carey as well as DJ Abby De La Rosa, Brittany Bell, Bre Tiesi, Alyssa Scott, and LaNisha Cole. De La Rosa serves as one of the co-hosts on The Daily Cannon.

Metro Boomin Shares Emotional Tribute To Late Mother On Mother’s Day

May 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

On Mother’s Day this past Sunday (May 14), Metro Boomin wrote a powerful and heartbreaking tribute to his late mother, Leslie Wayne. Her passing was a terrible shock to her loved ones, and the wider hip-hop world reacted with mournful condolences. Via an Instagram post, the producer remembered last year’s Mother’s Day, which was tragically the last one they spent together. Through a profound testimony and his hard work, he keeps her spirit alive and shared his emotions with fans.

“I remember Mothers Day last year we rode together to go pick up some pizza and you really admired the inside of this truck,” Metro Boomin wrote. His post was a picture of Wayne in front of one of his cars. “I had told you I hadn’t really drove it in years and I felt your antennas go up. You went on about the truck some more. I told you that you could have it. You got real excited and wanted to take a picture with it when we got back.

Metro Boomin’s Tribute To His Mother

“You were the QUEEN of posing for pictures and I’m sure that’s where my youngest brother gets it from,” Metro Boomin continued. From there, his caption paid a heartfelt tribute to her character. “You had so much personality and charisma as well as hustle and drive as well as humility and compassion. I know that’s where I get all of that from. If I only knew You would be taken from me a few weeks later. I miss everything about You and it hurts so much as I cry so much typing this. Everyday I’ve woke up for the past year is like a nightmare that’s never gon end.

“I Love and miss You with all my heart and every piece of my being,” he concluded. “Gonna continue to do great things and dedicate it all back to You. I can’t stress enough for everybody to love your parents while they are here because they are the only ones we get. Happy Mothers Day to all the Queens out there and to everyone going through this day without their Queen just know you are not alone.” For more on Metro Boomin, return to HNHH.

Nicki Minaj Celebrates Mother’s Day With A Heartfelt Post

May 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

To honor Mother’s Day, Nicki Minaj took to Instagram to express her appreciation for the strong women in her life. She also conveyed immense love for her family. In a heartfelt post, she shared a carousel of photos that began with a picture of herself, her husband Kenneth Petty, and their son Papa Bear. The post also features images of Papa Bear with his grandmothers, as Nicki lovingly acknowledged each of them and expressed how fortunate her son is to have them in his life.

Nicki had some very sweet words to say about her own journey to motherhood and how much her son, Papa Bear, means to her. “All I can think about is how sleep deprived my husband & I were,” the iconic rapper began. “And how I wouldn’t trade even one minute of the journey to becoming your mom.” She went on to speak about how lucky her son is to have so many strong women in his life. “3 diff moms in this slide. Papa, one day I hope you’ll know how lucky you are to have them. Happy Mother’s Day Mommy. Thank you for bringing me to church with you when I was a kid,” Nicki said. “Happy Mother’s Day to my husband’s mother who helped us soooo much in the first year so we could get a few hours of sleep sometimes.”

Nicki Is Still “The Generous Queen”

Although Nicki may have spent quite some time showing appreciation for her family yesterday, she also showed appreciation for her fans. Months after dropping her one-off single, “Red Ruby Da Sleeze,” Nicki finally dropped the video for the song. It was quite a surprise for the Barbz, as it had been quite some time since Nicki first teased the video. No doubt some didn’t think it was going to get released. Of course, Nicki’s fans blew the video up immediately, and it’s already sitting at over 1 million views in less than a day.

Nicki has also decided to give back to the community in a bid to help victims of domestic violence. The rapper and her mother have set up The Carol Maraj Foundation. “I saw my father hit my mother in the head with a flashlight and we just moved on like it was nothing,” Nicki said. “I came to America and realized this is abuse, this is domestic violence, I’ve been living.” The new effort will offer cosmetic procedures free of charge to those who courageously decide to leave abusive situations. It is the hope of Nicki and her mother that this will help restore confidence to women that have suffered at the hands of physical violence from a partner or loved one. Stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news on Nicki.

Ne-Yo and Crystal Renay married back in 2016 and share three kids together. While they initially began the process of splitting up back in 2020, they reconciled during the coronavirus pandemic. “Before the quarantine happened, we were definitely talking divorce, and the quarantine forced us to sit still, block out the noise from the world – you know the world can get very, very loud, and we tend to let the world’s opinion mean more in certain situations than it should,” Ne-Yo told CBS’ The Talk at the time. Renay filed for divorce in 2022 amid allegations of Ne-Yo fathering a child outside of marriage.

Drake’s Baby Mama Sophie Brussaux Looks Beautiful Holding Adonis In Rapper’s Mother’s Day Post

May 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Yesterday (May 14), nearly every social media post we saw from our favourites was dedicated to Mother’s Day. From parents like Cardi B and Ari Fletcher being spoiled by their little ones, to various rappers shouting out their own family matriarch and co-parents. Among the latter category was Drake. He had plenty of love to show not only to his mother, Sandra Graham but also to his baby mama, Sophie Brussaux.

Drizzy and the French artist were previously off to a tough start following the birth of their son, Adonis. Of course, the “God’s Plan” hitmaker initially denied paternity. He’s claimed that the young boy’s blonde hair, fair complexion, and bright blue eyes made it seem impossible to him that Drake could possibly have a child. The paternity test obviously didn’t lie, though, as he’s had his son frequently by his side ever since. After taking some time to heal, he and Brussaux have also been able to forgive and forget their past. They’ve since formed a strong bond as they continue to raise Adonis together.

Drake Celebrates Sophie Brussaux on Mother’s Day

She was seen turning up at one of his concerts a few weeks back. Now, the bilingual artist made an appearance on Champagne Papi’s IG Story for Mother’s Day, looking radiant on a boat ride with her little boy. The lyricist didn’t include a caption to go along with the striking image of her and Adonis. Still, the message of love for his family he was trying to get across clearly came through.

Aside from the tribute to Brussaux for baring his first-born son, Drake also took the opportunity to praise his own mother. The Canadian artist was famously raised by a single Sandra Graham in Toronto, later spending summers with his father, Dennis, in Memphis, Tennessee. He’s always been open about his immense love for the woman who brought him up, frequently mentioning her in his music and beyond.

More Love for Sandy Graham

Keep scrolling to see the photos Drake shared in honour of Sandy yesterday. Do you think that she and Adonis share a resemblance? Let us know in the comments, and tap back in with HNHH later for more pop culture news updates.
