Jade, the ex-girlfriend of 6ix9ine, has claimed that the rapper and DJ Akademiks have been “f-cking for a very long time”. She has further claimed that this was the reason that she broke up with the rapper. She also threatened to go after the rapper if he tried to cause trouble. “Don’t make me post this video with me playing with ya a–“. The couple haven’t been an item since mid-2022, when they went through an explosive breakup.
While 6ix9ine has never been confirmed as being queer, people appeared to accept it. “Makes sense. No wonder Santana made him cry. Undercovers always get emotional when they get called out ,” one person noted. “We all need to be bringing in the New Years at somebody’s church!! 2023 is def for the books! ,” another added. However, others didn’t think it was an especially big deal. “So many people are gay I honestly do not care anymore. Find something else to shock me,” one person argued.
Meanwhile, 6ix9ine’s current girlfriend has been hit with some pretty serious criminal charges. Yailin La Más Viral was charged with felony assault after a video emerged showing an altercation between her and the rapper. She was arrested in Palm Beach on Friday, according to HipHopDX. Furthermore, the charges against her are felony battery, aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, obstruction of justice, and criminal damage to property worth $1000 or more. A bond of $9000 was paid by record producer Santiago “Alofoke” Matias.
Fans of both rappers were shocked when 6ix9ine posted footage of an altercation between himself and Yailin. In the video, she can be seen hitting 6ix9ine with a 2×6 and verbally assaulting the rapper before being restrained by police. Previously, 6ix9ine had posted a video of Yailin threatening him with a knife after accusing him of domestic assault.
Michael Rapaport has unleashed a scathing rant about Kanye West. “You fat pile of sh-t. You fat, washed up pile of sh-t. What are you – CIA? FBI? You a fed, you fat f-ck? You fat bloated f-ck. Jewish people are going through enough. We don’t need your fat f-cking dusty a– saying anything. If your mother was still alive, she’d be embarrassed. You’re an embarrassment to Donda. You got a new record coming out? Brick. No one’s f-cking with your music. You look like sh-t and I bet you smell like sh-t too,” the actor said.
Rapaport, who has become a viral sensation for his TikTok defenses of Israel since renewed hostilities between Israel and Palestine, was responding to comments West made during a listening party rant for Vultures. the rant took aim at the Jewish community, Adidas, and individuals like JAY-Z and Drake. “N-gga just cause I had a car, n-gga. F-ck everybody, n-gga. That’s what I’m trying to say to you n-ggas right f-cking now, n-gga. Drake, this is what you been waiting for. Jay-Z, this is what you been waiting for. Adidas, this is what you been waiting for. Kim, this is what you been waiting for. n-ggas be hanging around these n-ggas for the money on some Mike Rubin sh-t,” Kanye said in part.
However, Rapaport isn’t the only person coming for Kanye. Azealia Banks took aim at West, specifically for his comments attacking Nicki Minaj. “Okay. Now I’m really pissed the f-ck off. Regardless of how I feel about PF2, did fat smelly loser Kanye west really just try step all over Nicki’s release? Did I hear correctly when he tried to take credit for supporting her career?????” Banks wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
Minaj and Kanye are feuding because Minaj refused to clear her verse for “New Body”, a track set to appear on Kanye’s upcoming album, Vultures. “New Body” was originally meant to appear on the unreleased Yandhi. However, it was reworked into a Christian track for Jesus Is King but creative differences between Kanye and Minaj meant that the song was left off the album. Ty Dolla $ign implied on his track “Status” in 2020 that Kanye refused to release the song because it was “generic shit”.
To absolutely no one’s surprised, Nicki Minaj’s new album Pink Friday 2 had a great first-week debut on the Billboard album charts. Moreover, according to new metrics from Chart Data, the project is set to sell 222K units in this timeframe, placing it at the No. 1 spot on the charts. She must be very happy with this outcome, regardless of whether or not she believes in the power of angel numbers. Other placements on this week’s album chart are also unsurprising: Taylor Swift (thrice in the top 10), Drake, Morgan Wallen, SZA, and so on. Congrats to the Trinidadian MC for closing out 2023 with another No. 1 hip-hop LP, one of the few we got this year.
Furthermore, she is showing no signs of slowing her roll down in the near future. In fact, Nicki Minaj recently teased a long-anticipated spectacle for her Barbz, one that’s been in the works for a while. But she kept things clear and optimistic when relaying that she’s still hard at work on her documentary. Considering the 41-year-old’s massively impactful career and her staggering trajectory, such a tale should be a compelling look into this success.
On the other hand, she is also getting ready for her world tour in 2024, something that the Barbz have begged for incessantly for a long, long time. Finally, it seems like Nicki Minaj is ready to fully embrace the stage once again, fueled by this newfound wealth of material. Of course, we would expect her to run through her stacked catalog of hits too, but to see her in a new era is the most exciting of these prospects. If you’re thinking about buying a ticket, act fast; we’d only expect them to get tougher to purchase from here on out.
Meanwhile, what remains to be seen now is whether the “Let Me Calm Down” hitmaker landed a No. 1 song on the charts. With a couple of different smashes to choose from, it would be pretty interesting to see which one lands on top from all the tracks on Pink Friday 2, even if it doesn’t nab the highest placement. Let us know your predictions on that end in the comments section down below. Also, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Nicki Minaj.
In the fast-paced realm of hip-hop, one name has been making waves and turning heads: 310babii. The LA-based rapper, whose meteoric rise began this summer with the viral hit “Soak City,” has become a force to be reckoned with. He sat down with HotNewHipHop to give an inside look into his journey, dreams, and the whirlwind of experiences that have defined his career so far. Moreover, all while still attending his high school classes.
As a high school senior, 310babii is living the dream he always wanted—to be a rapper. What started as a personal aspiration has quickly evolved into a full-fledged musical journey. His friends are riding shotgun as his biggest supporters. The excitement around 310babii is magnetic, and it’s not hard to see why. Drawing inspiration from heavyweights like Lil Yachty, Chief Keef, Gucci, and Drake, 310babii’s music is still uniquely his own. The dream collaboration? None other than Lil Yachty himself. In this exclusive interview, he opens up about the influences that have shaped his distinctive sound and teases what fans can expect from his upcoming releases, including a highly-anticipated album.
However, 310babii’s journey took an unexpected turn when his breakout hit “Soak City” caught fire, catapulting him into the spotlight. The track’s remix, featuring heavy-hitters Blueface, Tyga, Mustard, OhGeesy, and BlueBucksClan, and further solidified his position as someone to watch. The collaboration with these prominent West Coast rappers is a testament to 310babii’s rapid ascent and undeniable talent. With an album in the works and surprises up his sleeve, 310babii is set to disrupt the hip-hop scene in ways unimaginable just months ago.
Read the full interview below as 310babii shares his reflections on a reality that has transformed from distant dreams into a whole new dimension. Moreover, with a show scheduled at The Roxy on December 30th (also happens to coincide with his 18th birthday), this LA prodigy is gearing up to deliver an unforgettable experience for fans and cement his status as the next big thing in hip-hop.
This interview has been edited and condensed for clarity.
HNHH: For those who are just getting familiar with 310babii, how would you describe and introduce yourself?
310babii: I would say I’m a young new artist, but I’m different and unique. I’m a breath of fresh air. I’m bringing a new flavor to the rap game that hasn’t been showcased. It’s never been any light shed on my type of style or sound. Bringing something different to the game.
I love that perspective. You obviously have a single right now that’s getting a lot of attention and there’s light being shed on it. What was your reaction to “Soak City,” making noise?
It was so much all at one time it didn’t feel real. After a while it was just exciting for what’s to come. TikTok!
That’s definitely exciting! How do you balance all of this being a senior in highschool and did you know you wanted to pursue music?
Yeah. That wasn’t the only thing I wanted to do, but I knew that was a step in it.
What’s been the reaction from your friends and family?
Friends are excited for me. And there hasn’t been any changes. But now I’m showing kids who are the same age as me that it’s possible. It’s possible to make some type of noise from where we come from.
Where does your inspiration come from?
I watch other artists. And I know I can do it too. I pull things from some of my favorite artists and see what I can come up with. Like a good plan.
Who are some of those artists?
Lil Yachty, Chief Keef, Gucci, and Drake. Lil Yachty is my dream collab.
What’s in the works for you right now? What can we be on the lookout for?
More singles! And definitely an album coming soon.
Anyone special on the album that can possibly be a feature?
Yeah I do. But I wanna roll it out the right way and surprise everybody.
Who are some people in LA who have supported you? Any West Coast artists who have showed love?
Tyga, OhGeesy, and BlueBucksClan. It was a little game they gave me. They just told me just being myself and staying true to myself. The whole city rootin’ behind me.
You linked up with Luh Tyler for a song together called “Walk,” and got a chance to perform it at Complex Con! How was that? And what’s the vibe like in the studio together?
It was fun and crazy. My manager knew his manager. I’d work with him again. We haven’t been in the actual studio together yet.
What’s some of your goals for the new year? And how do you plan on ending off the year?
Honestly, I just wanna keep working. I don’t have any specific goals. Just keep working and staying hungry. I’m focused on dropping my album and all I’m looking forward to. I’m in a whole different reality with music. Things that used to be problems for me aren’t problems anymore. Now I got like, champagne problems. Certain things that I would think about 4 months ago, I don’t even care about no more. It’s like I’m in a whole different reality. The industry is like a whole different dimension. I’m living life, and having fun. Everything is music. And it’s lit.
The only people who are bigger Nicki Minaj fans than Kai Cenat right now are his mother and sister. Moreover, they met her for the first time during his stream with the rapper, and he surprised them with her presence to wholesome results. They both shed joyful tears, embracing the Trinidadian MC and having a lot of fun with her on stream as they chopped it up, danced, and had a lot of fun. The Twitch giant’s twin, Kaiya, is a massive Barb, and following Nicki’s birthday wishes to both of them, she was even more grateful. Kaiya penned a sweet message for her fav on Instagram.
“Where do I begin?” Kaiya began her caption alongside a picture of her with Nicki Minaj. “Words can’t even explain the LOVE I will ALWAYS HAVE for you! I was 7 years old when I first listened to you. The first album I fell in love with was the first PINK FRIDAY Album. I prayed, dreamed and hoped for this day to come. You’ve been through so much for 15+years and worked so hard!
“YOU ARE THE #1 & ONLY FEMALE RAPPER IN MY EYES!” Kaiya continued. “Thank you for keeping your promise, thank you for listening & supporting the BARBS NICKI. We love you & WILL NEVER STOP DEFENDING YOU! You are beautiful, Your spirit is unmatched and BODY IS TEA!!!! You could’ve been anywhere else in this world and you made sure you supported ME AND MY FAMILY!!! This was my moment 4 life. This was my full circle moment.
“Most of all, I want to give a special thanks to my amazing twin brother @kaicenat!” her message concluded. “We grew up talking about this moment and you brought my dreams to reality! I still can’t even believe i was given this opportunity. I love you so much. Thank you for always taking care of the family and giving me this opportunity of meeting the GENEROUS QUEEN.” For more news and the latest updates on Kai Cenat and Nicki Minaj, log back into HNHH.
Gunna is taking his talents overseas, and his first of two Dubai performances this weekend was quite the show. Moreover, he performed at the Coca-Cola Arena on Saturday (December 16), and will also perform on Sunday (December 17) to open the desert resort Blu Oasis. As such, the (former?) YSL affiliate has a lot to look forward to in the United Arab Emirates and other parts of the world. In fact, it’s very heartening to see him delve into other genres and scenes that weren’t within his Atlanta trap wheelhouse. For example, Sarz and Asake recently brought the College Park native on for an Afrobeat cut, “Happiness.”
Furthermore, following his comeback album this year after his YSL RICO trial controversies, seeing him switch his style up has ranged from surprisingly great to mildly entertaining– at least, in this writer’s opinion. More genres, world influences, travel experiences, and just general growth as a person will surely yield a lot of happiness, greatness, and success for Gunna. After all, his current space in the rap game, although still established and unwavering, seems destined for conflict. Lil Babyturned against his former partner like many other MCs, and while they’d rather see Wunna fall, it’s clear that he won’t let any narratives stop him on his journey.
Regardless of all that, Gunna remains as compelling of a performer as ever, running through verses with methodical pace and making sure every word is felt. Beyond that, it seems like he’s going to take things pretty chill this holiday season. Out of the many people in the 30-year-old’s life with which he will celebrate it, one specific new addition to his circle has fans particularly interested. He recently threw P Litty, his new boo, a fun birthday shindig, and we’re happy that he has someone making his wish come true this winter.
Meanwhile, the Drip Season hitmaker was almost in a car crash recently, and he took it as a sign to update us on new music. Apparently, we might get new material sooner than we think. Do you think there’s another hit album from him coming up in 2024? Let us know in the comments and check back in with HNHH for more news and updates on Gunna.
When 6ix9ine failed to show up in court for an assault lawsuit, he didn’t consider that a default judgement would end up ridding him of his valuables. However, that’s exactly what court documents reportedly obtained by TMZ indicate, as the court appointed a receiver to handle his assets. These include a Rolls-Royce, a mansion in Florida, and many other pricey items that might be sold off or auctioned to pay for the $9.825 judgement by any means necessary. In fact, it seems like this is a pretty limitless proposition, as the docs claim that the receiver can “break any locks necessary to gain access to any real property.”
For those unaware, the rapper– who said he will drop a new album soon– received this lawsuit over two years ago. He accidentally hit Alexis Salaberrios, a dancer for Gold Rush Cabaret in Miami, in the head with a champagne bottle that he threw at a person who called him a rat. After going to the ER and getting stitches, she filed legal action against him and won the judgement back in July. Since 6ix9ine never paid for it, now Salaberrios has clearance to seize these assets despite his legal team initially dismissing this suit.

Meanwhile, the New York native is also dealing with some other legal trouble right now– but it’s got less to do with him than it does with his partner. Yailín La Más Viral recently faced an arrest and felony assault charges after threatening him with a knife and hitting him with a two-by-four. The two have had nothing if not a turbulent and chaotic relationship in the public eye, so this is a little less surprising than most. Still, considering past issues that the couple went through, it’s a tad disheartening to see Yailín fall into tropes that 6ix9ine is the most notorious for out of the two.
Regardless, do you think that this is going to hurt his pockets deeply as he lingers in the Dominican Republic? Is this the beginning of the end? However you may feel, let us know in the comments section down below. For more news and the latest updates on 6ix9ine, stick around on HNHH.
A pair of custom Cactus Jack Air Jordans that Travis Scottgave to a fan at Rolling Loud Germany have been put up for auction. Scott gifted the Egyptian fan the shoes after bringing the man up on stage. It was one of several impromptu clothing giveaways Scott did in his pre-Utopia festival circuit. The shoes are being sold through Goldin’s and are expected to go for around $10,000. “In an iconic moment in pop culture history, we’re excited to see these sneakers hit the auction block. As a sneakerhead myself, it’s great to offer a rare opportunity for other collectors to own a custom pair of Air Jordans” auction owner Ken Goldin told TMZ.
As mentioned, it wasn’t the first time that Scott gave away his shoes over the summer. Earlier in July, at Longitude Festival in Dublin, Scott got up close and personal with the throbbing mass of fans at the barricade. Picking out one fan in particular, Scott began to rap back and forth with the fan, who eagerly responded. The back-and-forth continued, with Scott getting more and more hyped up about the interaction. When the verse ended, Scott pulled off his shirt, an unreleased Utopia merch item, as well as his Air Jordans. Fighting back the sea of grabbing hands, Scott handed the items to the fan he had rapped with.

Travis Kelce Jersey Sells For $37K
Back in July, Travis Scott brought a fan on stage during his Rolling Loud Germany performance and gifted him with the stage-worn Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low “Olive” colorway. That very same pair is currently up for auction via Goldin until December 20 pic.twitter.com/GJMTfxTNfd
However, Scott’s custom Air Jordans are just the latest famous lot Goldin has handled. A jersey worn by Travis Kelce during a 2019 NFL game in Mexico City has been sold at auction for $37K. “This is an all-time record for a Travis Kelce game-used item. He has always been popular but the success of the Chiefs, as well as the publicity he’s gotten around his relationship with Taylor Swift, has added to his popularity and awareness among collectors,” Goldin Auctions owner Ken Goldin told TMZ.
The news came after Swift spoke at length about her relationship with Kelce in her interview with TIME after being named the magazine’s Person of the Year. “This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell. We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew. Which, I’m grateful for because we got to get to know each other. By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple. I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date,” Swift said.
Cam’ron finally had the opportunity to link up with his long-time crush Nia Long as they both attended the birthday party of Rich Paul. “He want the scoop, she want the tea. I can not talk, we keeping it street! @iamnialong aka Ni-Amore,” Cam’ron gushed on Instagram. Long kept her own caption a little more casual, simply saying “Nice meeting you @mr_camron. Happy Birthday @richpaul”. All this came after Long, who has kept away from the spotlight following the Ime Udoka drama, declared herself “outside” with a pre-party selfie.
Of course, Cam’ron has had a very public crush on Long for a good while. Earlier this month, Cam’ron revealed that after her split with Udoka, he had sent Long a lengthy DM. However, in revealing this, Cam’ron also noted that Long had left him on delivered and had not read the message.
However, Cam’ron has been playing up his bad-boy persona this year. Kisha Chavis, the wife of ex-NBA player Joe Smith, returned to It Is What It Is at the request of Ma$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.
Kanye West has confirmed that Vultures will be released on December 31, according to a statement received by XXL. This comes after the album, a collaborative effort with Ty Dolla $ign, was made available for pre-order on iTunes. Additionally, the album has been delayed several times and was meant to drop this past Friday. However, fans instead received news of a 10-minute rant delivered by West at a star-studded listening party.
Furthermore, the rant took aim at the Jewish community, Adidas, and individuals like JAY-Z and Drake. “N-gga just cause I had a car, n-gga. F-ck everybody, n-gga. That’s what I’m trying to say to you n-ggas right f-cking now, n-gga. Drake, this is what you been waiting for. Jay-Z, this is what you been waiting for. Adidas, this is what you been waiting for. Kim, this is what you been waiting for. n-ggas be hanging around these n-ggas for the money on some Mike Rubin sh-t,” Kanye said in part. West also took aim at Nicki Minaj for refusing to clear her verse on “New Body”. This earned him a scathing attack from Azealia Banks.
Kanye West’s rep has confirmed that “Vultures” has a new release date of December 31 and another rave event in Saudi Arabia is planned for this weekend.
Last week, Kanye previewed some of the things fans can expect from Vultures. “Everybody” was briefly previewed in a video shared by West, which showed the rapper standing imposingly on a balcony as the track played. The brief clip shared confirms that the song includes a prominent sample of “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)” by the Backstreet Boys that melts into an enticing beat. Furthermore, another song, “North’s Song”, will see North West make her musical debut. Additionally, the song appears to sample a high school cheerleading video.
Elsewhere, Timbaland also confirmed that he has served as a producer on the album. “One of my best body of work,” Timbaland wrote on Instagram while showing a hand-written tracklist. The reveal came soon after Dolla Sign revealed the tracklist in full himself. Are you excited for Vultures? Let us know in the comments.
