Mariah Carey & Nick Cannon’s Son Moroccan Makes Rap Debut At Kansas City Tour Stop

November 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

12-year-old Moroccan Scott, the son of Mariah Carey & Nick Cannon, has made his live rap debut. Moroccan appeared on stage in Kansas City alongside his mother on her “Merry Christmas One And All” Tour. Moroccan dropped some solid bars as his mom nodded along approvingly beside him. With Carey as his mom and Cannon as his dad, it makes sense that Moroccan would have inherited some musical talent.

Of course, as November becomes December, it has become Carey’s time to shine. Many memes have been made about how she has unthawed and is preparing to bombard the world with “All I Want For Christmas”. Carey and Cannon have another child, Monroe, who is Moroccan’s twin. Moroccan Scott and his sister Monroe are currently 12 years old.

Elsewhere, Cannon recently made some big revelations about Carey. “She was my rock. She went hard. To be honest, I probably wouldn’t be alive if it wasn’t for how hard she went with the doctors, with me, my stubbornness. She was the perfect helpmate, the perfect matriarch, the perfect mom, the perfect wife in those scenarios. It probably took a toll on us just because of the person I was in my head and the struggles that I was dealing with. But it definitely brought us closer together,” Cannon said in regards to his lupus diagnosis on The Diary Of A CEO podcast.

“I absolutely do,” Cannon confirmed when asked if he felt as if Carey had “saved his life”. “But that’s what you do when you find a helpmate. When you find someone that you’re in matrimony with, you go hard for [them]. I feel like I went hard for her and we’ll still go hard — I lay down my life for her today. That’s what you do, it’s just family,” he continued. Carey and Cannon were together for eight years before going their separate ways. Cannon later developed a reputation as a baby daddy, with his kid count in the double digits.

Kim Kardashian & North West Sing Ye’s “Bound 2,” Tween Exposes Mom’s Lies To Kendall Jenner

November 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Seeing as she’s the daughter of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian, we weren’t surprised to find out that 10-year-old North has both attitude and serious creative talent. The more of her that we see on TikTok and the family’s reality show, the more the world falls in love with the young girl. In the past, Kardashian has described her firstborn as a “lesson,” and we can certainly see why. On a new episode of their Hulu series, Kendall Jenner revealed that Northie wasn’t shy about exposing her mom for lying about her thoughts on the supermodel’s 2023 Met Gala look.

“By the way, North, you need to have like, some loyalty,” the SKIMS founder tells her daughter in the clip below. “When mommy talks s**t about people, you cannot go tell them!” During this rant, West’s cousin, Penelope Disick, and her dad, Scott, sat awkwardly in the room listening to Kardashian complain. “Why would you tell Auntie Kendall I hated her outfit?” she asked before the camera cuts to the 818 Tequila owner in a confessional with Kylie.

North West Keeps Kim Kardashian Honest

Let’s look at this from North’s perspective for a second: Kim is a liar. https://t.co/3IW5lZrr7p

While she clearly gives the 43-year-old no shortage of headaches, having North and her three other children close by also keeps Kardashian young at heart. She and her tween have tons of fun learning TikTok choreography together, recently dancing along to a mash-up of “All I Want For Christmas Is You” and “Crank That.” Elsewhere, the socialite proved she’s doing her best to be a civil co-parent with her ex-husband by singing along to one of his biggest Yeezus-era hits, “Bound 2.”

Megan Thee Stallion’s 2024 Olympics Pitch Includes Winged Horses And Some Creative Rebranding: Watch

November 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

NBC has tapped Megan Thee Stallion to help promote their coverage of the 2024 Olympics. The skit opens with Megan flexing her style alongside some gilded equestrians before introducing her “hot girl” – a talking, winged horse that also breathes fire. Furthermore, Megan also dubs the Games “Thee Paris Olympics”. However, the entire envision is revealed to be an elaborate pitch that Megan is giving to a confused board of directors at NBC. This leads into Megan also using her signature vocal fry to dub the Games the “Ahlympics”.

“As America gathers together today on Thanksgiving, we wanted to surprise the nation with an Olympic moment as big as the holiday, and what better way to do that than with ‘Thee Olympics,’ featuring Megan Thee Stallion and dressage horses at Versailles. As we approach the new year, even more surprises are in store as we continue to bring to life the biggest media event of 2024 — the Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games,” Jenny Storms, NBC Universal’s CMO Of Sports And Entertainment, told Rolling Stone about the promo spot.

Megan Thee Stallion Helps Count Down To Olympics

Megan’s promo spot on Thanksgiving marked 246 days until the world descends on Paris for the 2024 Olympic Games. The Games open on July 26 with a ceremony that will reportedly see the national delegations travel to the Olympic stadium via a flotilla of boats making its way down the Seine. The Games will add one new sport – breaking. However, the Olympic Committee also chose to include skateboarding, sports climbing, and surfing. All three sports made their debut at the 2020 Games in Tokyo.

Qualification for the Games is ongoing and runs right up until early July in some cases. However, history has been made in several events. South Sudan earned their first direct qualification to the Olympics thanks to their finish at the FIBA World Cup this year. Meanwhile, Simone Biles roared back into the world of gymnastics, securing her Olympic berth with four gold medals at the World Gymnastics Championships.

Twista Raps Over Gunshots During Impressive “Overnight Celebrity” Rendition: Watch

November 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Twista’s flow is legendary, and it turns out that his machine gun speed actually matches well with actual gunshots as the beat. Moreover, he recently performed his hit “Overnight Celebrity” as a man shot two assault rifles to the beat of the track, complimenting his flow quite well. Before you get scared, let’s be clear: this was a planned and safe performance, with no reported injuries and carried out by professionals. After all, the rapper is a certified firearm instructor, and has long been a fan of gun culture. However, he also promotes educational initiatives and conceal carry programs to combat gun violence in the United States, so he doesn’t let his fandom get in the way of safety and security when it comes to gun laws.

Furthermore, the Shooter Ready MC seemed like he was having a lot of fun during this unique performance, and we can’t blame him. It’s got to be at least a little bit satisfying to hear gunshots accentuate your drums and keep your flow up. In addition, plenty of folks who saw this on social media were quick to make some funny jokes about it. Also, they referenced his experience with firearms since most people might see this video out of context.

Twista’s Gunshot Remix Of “Overnight Celebrity”: Watch

Back in June of last year, though, Twista revealed his ventriloquist skills, and wants to take them to the next level. Eventually, he wants to be able to rap through a puppet, and this would be simply another challenge in his path to become the best and most versatile lyricist possible. After all, if the 49-year-old can rap through a puppet as well as he can ride a “NRA-type beat,” very few could compete with his prowess. Jokes aside, it’s great to see such a talent continue to further himself creatively so far into his career.

Meanwhile, the Chicago native’s recent remix of “CUFF IT” by Beyoncé also re-introduced the lyricist into many’s ears. As one of the most technically unique MCs of his era- and before and after it, for that matter- you can never get enough. Let’s see what he tackles next as a creative project. On that note, check back in with HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Twista.

“Bottoms Up” Thanksgiving Grace Leaves Nicki Minaj Speechless

November 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

A viral video of a group of Barbz using Nicki Minaj’s verse from “Bottoms Up” as their Thanksgiving grace has made its way to Minaj herself. “I-” was all Minaj wrote in response to the video, which also features a cardboard cutout of Minaj as the guest of honor at the table. The video was originally posted to TikTok but quickly spread across the internet, eventually making it onto Minaj’s feed on X.

The hype amongst the Barbz is growing exponentially as the December 8 release date of Pink Friday 2 draws ever closer. A promotional fragrance sold out at Macy’s within 24 hours. However, Minaj was a little perplexed by this, as she had reportedly not been told that the perfume was being released this week. Additionally, Minaj had a little fun with her fans, releasing a fake tracklist full of food puns. We’re sure fans can’t wait for the likes of “NY Strip steak ft. A1” and “Like my hunnits GREENS”.

Minaj Speaks On Her Haters

However, if there’s one group that Minaj has plenty of words for, it’s her haters. As she continues to plug Pink Friday 2, she also went after the people leveling criticism at her. “Music is a very serious business for me & MANY OF US but it’s also my F*CKING ARTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!” she explained. “MY GIFT!!!!!!!! FROM GOD. Do you tell physicians how to operate on your penis holes & hair lines? Would you tell a pastor how to preach his sermon in the middle of Sunday worship? Do you tell the strippers where to position their butt holes while they on the pole tryna entertain you? Do you tell JORDAN HOW TO chew his gum & move his wrist b4 a FKING JUMP SHOT!!!??!??! Being a ppl pleaser will never make the pleaser feel pleased. So stop. Take it from me. I’ve learned the hard way for years.”

This was not Minaj’s only rant of the week. The day before Thanksgiving, Minaj went on tirade after learning that her unreleased track “Bahm Bahm” was available on streaming platforms. “Oh hello no! I want all my money back from this thievery! That would’ve been at least an extra 6 to 7 dollars & like 48 cents added to my real account b!ch,” Minaj wrote alongside a screenshots of the song climbing various streaming charts. Streaming fraud is a growing problem, and one that Spotify in particular has pledged to address.

Third Lawsuit Against Diddy Has Rapper Looking Gloomy At Miami Home

November 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

New photos published by Page Six appear to show Diddy looking downcast and lost in thought at his Miami home. We’re not permitted to post the images directly on HotNewHipHop. However, if you’d like to see them, you can do so by clicking the Via link below. The images were captured over the Thanksgiving weekend, which he appeared to spend with three of his children, his mother, and the mother of one of his daughters. Furthermore, the images were published just a few days after the Bad Boy Records founder was hit with a third sexual assault lawsuit filed under New York’s Adult Survivor Act.

In the suit, the anonymous woman claims she went on a date with Diddy in 1991 while attending Syracuse. However, she alleges that Diddy drugged her during dinner, before filming them while he raped her. Furthermore, she claims that she was later made aware that the video of the assault had been shown to and viewed by multiple people. The wave of allegations against Diddy has come after his former long-time partner Cassie released a series of horrific allegations against him in her own suit.

Foxy Brown Voices Support For Diddy

However, not everyone is against Diddy. Foxy Brown has seemingly spoken in defense of Diddy amid the myriad of lawsuits. Brown shared a picture of a text conversation to her Instagram, in which a man named “Darryl Brown” expressed relief that Foxy “didn’t get caught up in that Diddy sh-t”. However, Brown’s response backed the rapper over his accusers. “Dead a– tho, Diddy gave me M’s. For ME, it was the BEST OF BOTH WORLDS. DEF JAM X BAD BOY COLLABO. SUPER CHECKMATE,” Brown was seen writing in response.

Brown was featured on Diddy’s 2015 track “Friend” and appears to enjoy a close relationship with him. She is just the most recent person to speak up in defense of Diddy. 50 Cent, who initially came out against Puffy, made a social media post in which he appeared to at least offer some compassion to the producer. “Damn I hope he alright if you cool with him check on him. All joke a side this is a lot,” Fif wrote.

Juicy J Promises 7 Albums Next Year, Seemingly Hints At Retirement

November 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Juicy J has revealed that he plans to release seven albums in 2024. “I got about 7 albums I’m dropping 2024 I never worked this hard in my life,” the iconic rapper and producer wrote on X, formerly Twitter. However, he also lowkey hinted that he would be retiring after such a packed release schedule. “After this I’m gonna buy a house on the beach let my hair grow all the way out & become a full time hippie [trophy emoji] ya dig?” his post continued.

While Juicy released the mixtape Mental Trillness earlier this year, he hasn’t dropped a full album since 2020. The Hustle Continues peaked at #68 on the Billboard Album 200, a major jump from 2017’s Rubba Band Business, which barely charted at #191. However, few of Juicy’s solo projects have made much of a chart impact. His best solo project by far was 2013’s Stay Trippy. That peaked at #4 while also topping the US Rap album chart.

Juicy J Expresses Concern About The State Of Rap

Juicy’s plan to release seven albums next year comes after he expressed concern about the state of the music industry. Last month, Juicy proposed drastic measures to combat a decline in rap sales. “I don’t a lot of people don’t want to hear this, but rap music is down 40%. Check the charts. Check the math. What are we, as rappers, producers, composers, going to do about this shit. Because it’s down 40% this year. Do your research. This is a fact,” Juicy noted.

His solution was to host a roundtable of rap’s brightest minds. “Let’s have a conversation. What are we gonna do? We gotta figure some shit out. We gotta sit down and talk. Let’s have a meeting, let’s meet up somewhere and have a big ass f-cking meeting. Let’s talk about this sh-t, how we can turn this sh-t around. Because this is how we eat. This is how we make money,” he suggested. However, the industry will have to wait until next year to see if Juicy’s mammoth release schedule can help fix the problem he perceives in the business.

Foxy Brown Calls Working With Diddy “Best Of Both Worlds”

November 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Foxy Brown has seemingly spoken in defense of Diddy amid a myriad of sexual assault allegations against the veteran producer. Brown shared a picture of a text conversation to her Instagram, in which a man named “Darryl Brown” expressed relief that Foxy “didn’t get caught up in that Diddy sh-t”. However, Brown’s response backed Diddy over his accusers. “Dead a– tho, Diddy gave me M’s. For ME, it was the BEST OF BOTH WORLDS. DEF JAM X BAD BOY COLLABO. SUPER CHECKMATE,” Brown is seen writing in response.

Brown was featured on Diddy’s 2015 track “Friend” and appears to enjoy a close relationship with him. She is just the most recent person to speak up in defense of Diddy amid what is now three separate lawsuits and sets of allegations. 50 Cent, who initially came out against Diddy, made a social media post in which he appeared to at least offer some compassion to the producer. “Damn I hope he alright if you cool with him check on him. All joke a side this is a lot,” Fif wrote.

Diddy Accused Of Drugging And Raping College Student

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

The most recent suit against Diddy, filed just before New York’s Adult Survivor Act expired on Friday morning, only added to the notoriety of the case surrounding him. The anonymous woman claims she went on a date with Diddy in 1991 while attending Syracuse. However, she alleges that Diddy drugged her during dinner, before filming them while he raped her. Furthermore, she claims that she was later made aware that the video of the assault had been shown to and viewed by multiple people.

However, it’s sadly very similar to another story that came out amid the wave of allegations that were filed this week. An Ivy League professor accused former NFL player Marcellus Wiley of raping her in 1994. Both Wiley and his accuser were both attending Columbia at the time. Furthermore, the woman claims that school administrators tried to tell her it wasn’t rape. She claims they argued that she wasn’t American and thus didn’t understand American customs. Wiley was later placed on “academic probation” for “bad grades” despite multiple people coming forward with similar stories about him.

Lil Yachty Leaves Karrahboo Stunned, Refuses To Back Her Use Of The N-Word

November 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Rising rapper Karrahboo found herself in a state of shock when fellow artist Lil Yachty declined to defend her use of the controversial N-word. The exchange, caught on video, has left fans buzzing with conversations about cultural sensitivity and the responsibilities that come with growing influence. In the video, Karrahboo expressed her frustration with the criticism she receives for using the N-word. “I do get kinda annoyed,” she admitted, shedding light on the daily types of messages she recieves questioning her choice. “Every day somebody calls me, like, ‘Why do y’all keep letting her say ni–a?’ Or they be like, ‘Can you stop saying that?’” she explained, visibly seeking support from Lil Yachty. “So why dont y’all go ahead and defend me in front of everybody right now?” she asked.

However, Yachty’s response was unexpected. “That won’t happen,” he asserted. He essentially shut down any notion of defending her use of the term. “You shouldn’t say that,” he added bluntly, leaving Karrahboo and viewers taken aback by the refusal to offer solidarity.

Yachty Does Not Defend Karrahboo

Moreover, Lil Yachty’s stance, asserting that Karrahboo “shouldn’t say that,” was one that many social media users agreed with. It speaks to the evolving conversations within the genre about cultural appropriation and the responsibility artists bear in influencing their audience. “To ‘want’ to use that word is weird. Let’s expand our vocabulary,” one person commented. “Idk if she shocked that they really feel like that or if she shocked they said that on camera…Girl you know you should not be saying that stop it,” another said.

As the video circulates on social media, opinions diverge on whether Lil Yachty’s refusal is a stance against cultural insensitivity or a reflection of a broader conversation about language and identity within the hip-hop community. The incident serves as a reminder that artists, regardless of their status, can spark significant discussions about cultural appropriation and the weight that certain words carry in the ever-evolving landscape of hip-hop.
