Macaulay Culkin Was The First Choice To Play “Stan” In Eminem Video

April 18, 2024 by newhiphopnews

“Stan” is a classic single. Eminem’s character study of a crazed stalker is as poignant now as the day it dropped, and it’s even become hip-hop shorthand for “intense fans.” A big part of why the song worked so well was the music video, which starred Devon Sawa as the titular character. Sawa, best known as the star of the Final Destination franchise, gives an utterly chilling yet sympathetic performance. It’s hard to imagine someone else doing a better job. That said, Macaulay Culkin was Eminem’s original choice.

Sawa shed light on his casting during a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, and blew our collective minds in the process. The actor revealed that he was the second choice to play Stan after Culkin turned it down! You read that right: Eminem wanted the star of Home Alone to play his obsessed fan. “Full disclosure: they went out to Macaulay Culkin first, I believe,” Sawa told the outlet. “I think that they wanted him, and he wasn’t available, or didn’t want to do it or whatever.” Culkin was not technically an actor at the time, which may have contributed to his decision. The child star retired from Hollywood in 1995, and wouldn’t return to the big screen until Party Monster in 2003. The music video for “Stan,” meanwhile, came out in 2000.

Devon Sawa Got The Role Through Dr. Dre

Devon Sawa credited Dr. Dre with getting him the part. Apparently, the super producer saw Sawa in the first Final Destination and thought he would be a good fit. He turned out to be right. “There happened to be somebody in the casting office that knew somebody who was friends with me,” the actor recalled. He may have been the second choice, but Sawa considers “Stan” to be one of his career highlights. “It’s one of the proudest things I’ve been a part of,” he added. “I know it better now than I did that day. Because I’ve heard it millions of times since.”

Macaulay Culkin may have passed on “Stan,” but the actor actually has a pretty stellar music video resume. He appeared in the video for Michael Jackson’s iconic single “Black or White” in 1991, then returned for the Sonic Youth track “Sunday” in 1998. The actor popped up in the Pizza Underground’s “The Pizza Underground Demo” in 2014, which makes sense given that he was in the band. Culkin then played a crucified Kurt Cobain in the music video for Father John Misty’s 2017 song “Total Entertainment Forever.” He’s yet to make his hip-hop debut, but there’s still plenty of time.

Chloe Bailey Drops Unapologetic New Single, “Boy Bye”

April 14, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s already been a major year for Chloe Bailey, and fortunately for fans, it doesn’t look like she’s showing any signs of slowing down. Over the weekend, the songstress graced the stage at Coachella, delivering what would become an unforgettable performance. She impressed fans with songs like “FYS,” “Have Mercy,” “Body Do,” and more. Chloe also took the opportunity to perform her newest track live for the first time ever, “Boy Bye.”

She first unveiled the song late last week, making a splash with a fun accompanying music video. In the video, Chloe and some of her gal pals are seen making a dramatic exit from her less-than-satisfactory relationship. As they pack up her things and cruise away in a red convertible, she unapologetically tosses his clothes out the back, celebrating her newfound freedom.

Chloe Bailey Is Moving On

Towards the end of the song, Chloe laments her partner’s lack of commitment, revealing that she’s finally ready to move on for good. In an explosive ending, she plays the piano wearing a wedding dress and a flowing white veil, a fire burning behind her. So far, fans are loving the summer-ready single, and can’t wait to hear more from the Atlanta-born performer.

Luckily, Chloe’s been hinting at new music with her sister Halle for a while now, and has a new solo album on the way. At Coachella, she teased the project’s title in an interview with Rolling Stone. She told the outlet that she’d use the wave, thunderstorm, and palm tree emojis to summarize its name. What do you think of Chloe Bailey’s new song? Will you be adding “Boy Bye” to your spring playlist? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Quotable Lyrics:

Quavo & Destroy Lonely Mesh Well On Their First Song “Potato Loaded”

April 5, 2024 by newhiphopnews

People had some sneaky suspicions that Quavo and Destroy Lonely could be cooking up something in the studio. Photos surfaced near the very start of 2024 when NLE Choppa shared a post on social media of him chopping it up with the two aforementioned artists. While most people were probably expecting the Memphis rapper to be a part of the collab, that is sadly not the case. However, Quavo and Destroy Lonely are more than enough to get excited about.

Those earlier sessions have resulted in this new single right here, “Potato Loaded.” This is a Quavo single, as Lonely is credited as the feature, which makes this his third solo effort. The former Migo also worked with ATL Jacob and BU$HI as a guest. So, this could mean a third album could be in the works.

Listen To “Potato Loaded” By Quavo & Destroy Lonely

Those possible promotional records include “Real One” with Rich The Kid, and “Himothy.” So far, “Potato Loaded” may be the strongest of three. The cavernous trap beat with the enchanting woodwind sample is a nice combination of atmosphere and grittiness. Furthermore, Lonely brings an animated performance as Quavo opts for a more cool and subdued delivery. You can check out the new single above.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new single, “Potato Loaded,” by Quavo and Destroy Lonely? Was this song worth the wait for you, why or why not? What is your favorite element of the track and why? Who had the stronger performance? Should these two work again in the near future? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Quavo and Destroy Lonely. Finally, stay with us for the most informative song posts throughout the week.

Quotable Lyrics:

I ain’t even text her back, I just pulled off in a ghost

Ever since I was a jit, I knew I was the one, I guess I’m chose
I done took this shit around the world, it’s global, it’s not local
Yeah, get that shit off the floor (Floor)

Doja Cat And Teezo Touchdown Share High-Contrast Music Video For Their New Collab “MASC”

April 5, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Overnight, Doja Cat released the deluxe edition of her album Scarlet, which originally dropped last year. The deluxe is called Scarlet 2 CLAUDE and features seven new songs added to the original tracklist. She surprised fans with the song “URRRGE” which sports a feature from A$AP Rocky. The other new feature in the tracklist was announced ahead of time. Earlier this week Doja teased her new single “MASC” which features Teezo Touchdown.

In tandem with the release of the new deluxe album, they also shared a new music video for “MASC.” The video has already racked up almost 400k views and is trending on YouTube even amid a busy week for major new releases. The video itself features Doja and Teezo lit by spotlights in an otherwise pitch-black room highlighting the eccentricities of their looks. Doja delivers two outfits, one fittingly on the masculine side and the other channeling her more old-school feminine looks. The video has already been met with tons of praise from fans despite its stark presentation. Check out the full new visuals for “MASC” below.

Doja Cat And Teezo Touchdown Team Up For New Video

With J. Cole dropping an entire new mixtape featuring a response to Kendrick Lamar, rap beefs are fresh on a lot of fans minds right now. But earlier today Doja assured her fans that she isn’t dissing anybody in her music and isn’t getting into any beef anytime soon. “I don’t get in rap beefs,” she said in a Twitter post shutting down rumors before they could even get started.

Earlier this week, Doja Cat first announced that “MASC” was on the way. With the announcement she shared the artwork that would eventually come with the single. Fans weren’t exactly crazy about the close-up photo of her hair that she chose. The backlash was loud enough that she eventually had to respond to it, asking fans to move on. What do you think of Doja Cat’s new music video for “MASC?” What’s your favorite song off of the deluxe edition of Scarlet? Let us know in the comment section below.

21 Savage & Brent Faiyaz Turn Up In New “Should’ve Wore A Bonnet” Music Video

April 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Amid all of the drama between his Her Loss collaborator Drake and Metro Boomin, Future, and more, 21 Savage remains unbothered. As of late, the hitmaker continues to celebrate the success of his latest album, which he released in January of this year, American Dream. The project has been a success among fans so far, selling 131K album-equivalent units in its first week, up to par with his 2018 solo LP i am > i was.

21 is also gearing up to embark on a tour in support of the project, which begins in May. The UK-born performer will be joined by JID, 21 Lil Harold, and Nardo Wick. His newly secured green card will even him to stop in Vancouver. Before he sets off, however, he’s come through with a new music video for his track from the album with Brent Faiyaz, “should’ve wore a bonnet.”

21 Savage & Brent Faiyaz Team Up For New Video

The laid-back, VHS-inspired visual sees the two performers at a party surrounded by countless women, celebrity peers, and more. The dreamy, nostalgic music video fits the mellow track well, and stays on theme with the album’s other visuals. The duo also recently linked up to perform the song on Saturday Night Live in February. 21 was also joined by Summer Walker for a performance of “Prove It.”

It’s speculated that some shade has been thrown 21 Savage’s way lately, and fans are itching to hear him respond. It doesn’t look like he plans to, however. He’s instead been spending his days promoting his music, hitting up Disneyland, and more. What do you think of 21 Savage’s new music video for “should’ve wore a bonnet” with Brent Faiyaz? Do you hope to see more American Dream videos soon? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Future, Metro Boomin, Travis Scott & Playboi Carti Join Forces For “TYPE S**T” Music Video: Watch

March 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Everyone’s favorite new banger “TYPE S**T” off of Future and Metro Boomin’s collaborative album WE DON’T TRUST YOU is shaping up to be one of the biggest hits of the year. Moreover, the Travis Scott and Playboi Carti-assisted cut just got a visual treatment courtesy of directors Gunner Stahl and LouieKnows, and it’s a pretty grimy, grounded, and simply effective approach. All four artists flex their wild fits, cash, and luxury cars for the cameras, hitting up a strip club and driving around a city at night. Also, there are some other artist and producer cameos throughout the music video, as you can see folks like Southside and Ken Carson pop out for cameo appearances.

Furthermore, this continues a lot of hype around the song that began when all parties involved started teasing it heavily on social media. This led up to a wild Rolling Loud L.A. performance earlier this month sans Playboi Carti, but Future, Metro Boomin, and Travis Scott still rocked the crowd. This is definitely one of the songs to have resonated with fans the most off of WE DON’T TRUST YOU, either thanks to its collaborative nature or the classically menacing Metro beat. Either way, we’re sure that we’ll be hearing it ring off at the aux, clubs, sporting events, and much more throughout 2024.

Future & Metro Boomin’s “TYPE S**T” Music Video With Playboi Carti & Travis Scott: Watch

However, there’s also a lot of discussion about the more combative and speculative moments on WE DON’T TRUST YOU. “LIKE THAT” is about a few hours in the trend cycle away from becoming a classic verse of the 2020s, said verse coming from Kendrick Lamar and his Big Three-stomping lyricism. Many fans are hoping that Drake and J. Cole respond to these disses in some way, and they want more context and understanding as to what it all means for their competition and for the rap game at large. Maybe hearing one of them speak on it would paint a more complete picture, but Future and Metro Boomin have plenty of reason to indulge.

Supposedly, both of them have beef with Drake in particular, and dissed him on WE DON’T TRUST YOU. Metro’s issues with him are well-documented, whereas his “I Serve The Base” partner is rumored to be feuding with him over a girl. This is all unconfirmed and mostly just gossip, though, so we’ll see if this is the end of the story. Hopefully, there’s more to come. On that note, come back to HNHH for the latest news and updates on Future, Metro Boomin, Travis Scott, and Playboi Carti.

March 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

While we’re still only a few months into 2024, it’s already been a busy year for Dom Corleo. At the end of January, the hitmaker unleashed his single “Bite,” which arrived alongside an eery accompanying music video. The fan-favorite was soon followed by “Devote,” as well as a similarly surreal visual. Now, he’s returned with yet another new track, “TBT.”

“TBT” also arrives alongside a simple, trippy visual that sees the MC roam around what appears to be an abandoned building, desolate parking lots, and more. In the song, Corleo raps about his journey to success, and how his life has changed since finding it. He reflects on his life before making a living off of his music, and taking full advantage of his new lifestyle.

Dom Corleo Comes Through With More New Music

So far, fans appear to be enjoying Dom Corleo’s latest release, and it’s managed to get them excited to hear more. They’re currently flooding his YouTube comments section with praise, as well as demands for a new full-length album. While it remains unclear whether or not Corleo has a new LP in the works, he has dropped a few singles over the past few weeks, which could mean he’s working toward a bigger release.

What do you think of Dom Corleo’s new song? Will you be adding “TBT” to your playlist or not? Are you looking forward to hearing more new music from the performer? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Quotable Lyrics:

Now I been ‘cross the world, seen all the faces
Draco boot, Balenciaga laces
And I still rock thе Asics
Walk in the club, first-name basis
I ain’t good with being patiеnt
My driver drive the escort, patience
I ain’t cool with being basic
Got Goyard bags just to look famous
Just so they know what my name is
They throw the money, I’ma take it

Halle Bailey Unleashes Powerful “In Your Hands” Video Featuring Baby Halo, Reveals Meaning Behind Song

March 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s certainly been a busy few months for Halle Bailey, and luckily for fans, the Little Mermaid star shows no signs of slowing down. Aside from her award-winning film roles and music career, the 23-year-old just welcomed her first child with her boyfriend DDG late last year, a baby boy named Halo. While the songstress appears to be having a blast with her newfound motherhood, she continues to dive headfirst into new projects, including her upcoming solo album.

Last week, she unveiled yet another new single, “In Your Hands.” The moving track arrived alongside a dramatic accompanying music video, which sees Bailey serenade viewers in a dark forest, shred on a guitar, and more. Baby Halo even makes a brief appearance in the powerful visual, which makes sense considering one of her latest revelations.

Halle Bailey Drops Moving Visual For “In Your Hands”

Recently, Bailey chatted with fans on Instagram Live about “In Your Hands,” answering questions and providing them with some background information on the song. According to her, the track was initially going to be a 30-second interlude on her upcoming album, but friends and family urged her to give it the credit it deserves. She says that after first writing it, she only liked the hook, and later decided to rewrite the remainder of the song and release it as a single.

“The hook is based [on] being in love, being in a relationship and knowing that you know, your future with this person is just beautiful and the love that you have with this person is beautiful but also knowing your worth,” she explained. “The verses that I wrote, I wrote when I was pregnant, and in a way, it has like a double meaning. So the verses almost are to Halo, because I felt like I was singing to him just about how I’m always going to be here for him, and my journey as his mother, and all these things.”

Cardi B Goes Hard In Sultry New Snaps From “Enough (Miami)” Music Video

March 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Cardi B is keeping feet on necks on the charts and on social media, as she just shared some steamy new photos from behind the scenes of her “Enough (Miami)” music video shoot. Moreover, they’re specifically relating to the black and jewelry-adorned fit that she donned for specific shots in the vid, and they’re both of her on-set and in her dressing room. Plenty of superstars such as SZA and Flo Milli chimed in the comments section to give the Bronx MC her flowers for her beauty. With all this online hype, plus a rapidly moving album rollout, it seems like she’s going to stay on top for the foreseeable future.

However, throughout the 31-year-old’s recent press run, she’s also talked about what’s keeping her from having the same love for music she used to have. “I have a couple of problems with music,” Cardi B remarked on 360 with Speedy. “I feel like I don’t like nothing. That’s one of my things. Because I record a song, I love it, two days later, I’m over it. To be honest with you, I don’t really like anything that’s out right now. I listen to music that came out 8, 10, 20, 30 years ago.

“Maybe I’m just so into breaking things down now,” Cardi B continued. “You know, where you overanalyze everything, your music and other people’s music, that I don’t know what I like anymore. Also, it’s just not as fun anymore. Like, when you go to the booth, or when you record, you’re just having fun, you creating. Now, it just be feeling like it’s a pressure. When I did… I call it ‘C**ty,’ because we named it ‘C**ty’ originally. I was having fun, I had fun recording it, I had fun doing the video. When it came out, Jesus Christ, I was like, ‘Damn! Hold up, I just came back, y’alls going too rough on me!’ I gotta get that off my mind because that’s what f**ks s**t up.”

Meanwhile, on Million Dollaz Worth Of Game, she expressed desires to work with Rihanna, but admitted fear at the prospect. Do you think that’s something that will happen eventually?
