Childish Gambino Sends Fans Into A Frenzy With Electric Kanye West Teaser

by

Childish Gambino is getting ready to feed his starving fans in a big way very soon. The Georgia rapper and singer has been busy in Hollywood with acting roles lately, but new music will be coming up next. Just last week, he teased several new tracks off his upcoming reimagining of his last record 3.15.20 called Atavista. He did so during a GILGA Radio livestream last Sunday, and fans were having a blast hearing what he has been cooking up. Last night, Childish Gambino did the same thing again last night, and this time, a Kanye West collaboration was the highlight of the evening.

Accounts on X (formerly Twitter) were constantly resharing the audio clip and everyone is in agreement that it sounds fire. The snippet starts out with only Gambino rapping before revealing Kanye just seconds later. Production wise it sounds extremely familiar to a previous Ye record. The industrial and electronic beat would have fit snuggly on his 2013 experiment that was Yeezus.

Childish Gambino & Kanye West Are Flowing!

Childish was definitely not afraid to share most of the song, as the preview went on for nearly three minutes. At point, the two creative masterminds even trade bars back and forth, and they display some great chemistry during that stretch. If this officially sees the light of day, it will mark their first song together. Gambino has been on the record before saying that Kanye is still his G.O.A.T. rapper (greatest of all time), so this is truly a full circle moment.

What are your thoughts on Childish Gambino and Kanye West collaborating for his upcoming album? Does this sound like something that would have landed on Yeezus? Does this get you excited for Gambino’s upcoming album, why or why not? 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 Childish Gambino and Kanye West. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on around the music world.

Kanye West Claims To Reveal Drake’s “Rich Baby Daddy”

by

Kanye West says that Lucian Grainge, the CEO of Universal Music Group since 2010, is Drake’s “rich baby daddy.” He made the accusation during an interview with Justin Laboy on The Download podcast over the weekend, during which he also premiered a remix of Metro Boomin and Future’s “Like That.” One of Drake’s singles from his album, For All the Dogs, is titled “Rich Baby Daddy.”

“Drake has a rich baby daddy, named Lucian [Grainge] and Universal,” Ye claimed. “He’s like, ‘My daddy got it. My daddy control the spins. My daddy got the DSPs. Drake has a rich baby daddy named Lucian.” From there, he claimed Grainge works for “people who control the banks in Africa.” West also remarked that the “elimination of Drake” is energizing himself and others.

Ye also references Grainge in the lyrics to his version of “Like That.” He raps: “Pluto sent the drones, it hit like Metro beats/ It’s a wrap for n**gas, where’s Lucian? Serve ya’ master, n**ga/ You caught a little bag for your masters didn’t ya’, lifetime deal, I feel bad for n**gas/ Y’all so outta sight outta mind, I can’t even think of a Drake line/ Play J. Cole, get the p**sy dry, play this s**t back 130 times.” Check out Ye’s comments with Justin Laboy below.

Kanye West Speaks On Drake & Lucian Grainge

Before West’s diss, Drake fired back against Future, Metro Boomin, Kendrick Lamar, Rick Ross, and several others who have taken aim at him with the track, “Push Ups.” After a week went by without a response from Lamar, he released “Taylor Made Freestyle” as well. In addition to West, Rick Ross also fired back at Drake with a diss track. His is titled, “Champagne Moments.” Be on the lookout for further updates on Kanye West on HotNewHipHop.

by

Kid Cudi is an artist who is known for having some energetic concerts. After all, he is Mr. Rager, the man who influences artists like Travis Scott. However, there is no doubt that Cudi is getting a bit older, which means he isn’t as spry as he used to be. Unfortunately, this can sometimes result in some bad accidents. For instance, Cudi was at Coachella this past weekend, where he decided to try and jump off of the stage. As you can see in the video down below, this did not work out for the artist, as he injured himself in brutal fashion.

Once the artist hit the ground, he knew something was wrong and off. Cudi was writhing in pain, and the medical staff had to come and take him away. Of course, this cut his set short, and it led to lots of confusion among fans. These are the kinds of freak accidents that you hate to see, and fans were very concerned about his condition. Early this morning, Cudi came out and gave fans an update on what happened, and what his current condition is.

Kanye West Claims The “Elimination Of Drake” Is Energizing Himself And Others

by

Kanye West is someone who has beefed with Drake a ton in the past. Although he had seemingly made nice with the rapper thanks to the tutelage of J Prince, he is back to dissing the megastar. Overall, Ye had the rap game talking this weekend thanks to his verse on the “Like That” remix. Throughout this new version of the song, he takes shots at both J. Cole and Drizzy. Of course, Cole has dissed Kanye in the past, so this recent shot felt like one that was a bit overdue. It also led to some pretty hilarious memes on social media, but that is neither here nor there.

This was all released around the same time that Kanye West was doing an interview with none other than Justin Laboy. During this interview, Ye spoke up about the “Like That” remix and what made him want to do it. As he notes, Future was the first person to call him about getting on the remix. Moreover, he noted that the recent attacks on Drake are something that has everyone “energized.” More specifically, the artist said, “Everybody is very, very excited about the elimination of Drake.”

These are some strong words, and it goes to show that there is a bit of a deep hatred for Drake right now. That said, the former actor is not backing down right now. He dropped “Push Ups” where he took aim against Kendrick. Subsequently, he delivered the “Taylor Made Freestyle” which some believe could be a knockout punch. Only time will tell whether or not Lamar gets back involved, especially with so many artists in the ring right now.

Let us know what you think of the brewing war between Drake and the rest of the rap game, in the comments section down below. Do you think that this beef is starting to become unfair? Will Kendrick Lamar end up responding anytime soon? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

The feuds involving Drake picked up steam when Kendrick Lamar dissed him on Metro Boomin and Future’s song, “Like That,” last month. After three weeks of waiting, he finally fired back with “Push Ups.” On the song, he targeted several other artists who dissed him before he could drop the song, including The Weeknd, Rick Ross, and more.

Ja Rule Speaks On Rappers Targeting Drake

In other Ja Rule news, he recently had to cancel his performances in the United Kingdom after being denied entry. In a post on social media from February, he explained: “I’m so devastated I can’t believe the UK won’t let me in I’ve spent a half million dollars in production of my own money to put this tour together only to be denied entry DAYS before my shows this is not fair to me or my fans these venues are 85% sold and now I can’t come… The UK is one of the few European countries that restricts entry to people with criminal records. In general, you will likely be denied entry if you have been convicted of a crime punishable by 23 months or more under British law or served more than 12 months in prison.” Be on the lookout for further updates on Ja Rule on HotNewHipHop.

Osbourne addressed the selection in an email provided to Billboard. He was previously inducted as a member of Black Sabbath. “I definitely wouldn’t say I was confident,” Osbourne said regarding his solo success. He added that the 2021 induction of Randy Rhoads, his late songwriting partner, “made me feel we could be on to something. With every new music venture there’s always a certain amount of surprise that comes when you see the fans embrace it, because no one wants to make a record and have it flop. I feel like I was invited to a party in 1980, and it hasn’t stopped. Not bad for a guy who was fired from his last band.” Check out the full list of inductees for the class of 2024 below.

Tyler The Creator Reveals Why He Was Jealous Of Doja Cat’s Coachella Performance

by

Tyler The Creator says he was jealous of Doja Cat’s Coachella performance because she was surrounded by backup dancers and got to wear wigs. Performing again at the festival this weekend, he joked that the set made him want to do an Igor show again.

“I was with Doja Cat yesterday,” he said. “And I told her,’I’m jealous that you have backup dancers. N****. Just a bunch of sweaty n****s onstage with you, helping you look sweaty. F*ck. She got the wigs and sh*t. I need to do the ‘Igor’ sh*t one more time with the wig and sh*t.”

Parker Genoway, a creative director and designer for Silent House who worked on Doja’s set, discussed how it came together with Uproxx. “She was always like, ‘I want a dinosaur. I really want a dinosaur,’” he told the outlet. “And so when we started thinking about, ‘Let us work backwards. What kind of world could this be? Is this prehistoric, or is this post-apocalyptic? Has society crumbled?’… I think when I like to create a world, I want layers and I want versatility, and I want to be able to deliver a show that evolves and does not just stay the same the whole time.”

Tyler The Creator Shows Love To Doja Cat

Elsewhere during Tyler’s set, he performed his 2011 collaboration with Frank Ocean, “She.” When it became clear fans thought Ocean would be coming out to join him, Tyler tempered expectations. “Y’all know this song? Oh, sing the song, ’cause this n***a not coming out. We don’t… We don’t know where that n***a is, so… It’s on y’all. You know it?” Be on the lookout for further updates on Tyler The Creator on HotNewHipHop.

Cam’ron Reveals What Caused His Beef With Nas & 50 Cent

by

Cam’ron went into detail while recalling his past feuds with Nas and 50 Cent on social media. Filming himself on a boat, he discussed how he ended up beefing with the rappers despite liking both of them. The comments come as Kendrick Lamar, Drake, J Cole, and many more artists have been involved in feuds in recent weeks.

“Nas is one of my favorite artists, if not my favorite artist,” Cam began. “When Nas dissed me, that sh*t hurt. I was like, ‘Damn, we grew up on Nas. What did Nas diss us for? Damn, this is crazy.’ So when he dissed me for no reason, I’m like, ‘Damn, I didn’t do nothing to Nas.’ But it was when I just signed to Roc-A-Fella. And I was like, ‘Damn man. Do we ignore Nas or do we respond to Nas?’ To me, our back was against the wall because we didn’t have no platinum album yet. Dipset was just developing. We didn’t have no albums out. When we dissed Nas, that was our second mixtape. We put out one mixtape and then Nas dissed us. The whole second mixtape is because of Nas. But we had to do that because I’m like, ‘Damn, we just getting in the door after a f*cked up deal I had at Sony.’ I’m like, ‘Our backs are against the wall. I would never diss Nas for no reason.”

From there, he discussed his relationship with 50 Cent. “That’s why I did it because I felt our back was against the door. When me and 50 Cent was going at it, that was fun,” he said. “Shout to my n***a 50. We good now too. But when 50 dissed me, it started with an argument on the phone. When me and 50’s battle started, it was because 50 had said, ‘Koch is a graveyard for a lot of rappers.’ At the time, Jim Jones had just went to Koch and some other deals we had at Koch. And you know, Jim Jones is Dipset. So we sitting there saying, ‘Damn, he called Koch the graveyard and Jim just did a deal.’ So we got into a little argument on the phone. To me, all that sh*t was just music. Even when me and 50 spoke, we was like, ‘Yo, let’s get to this money because certain sh*t is music and certain sh*t is not music.’ When it goes past music, that’s something different.”
