Kai Cenat Hints At Possible Lil Uzi Vert Stream & Fans Think The Rapper Should Do It For This Reason

by

Kai Cenat’s status online is massive. Due to his charisma, antics, content, and high-profile collaborations, he has grown quite the empire over the years. All of his success has led to him being recognized as one of the funniest people on the internet (14th according to Complex) and a Streamer of the Year award winner. Because of all of his achievements, his drive to bring the best for his “Chat” is still extremely high. Over the last few weeks, we have come to learn that a 24-hour stream with Travis Scott is in the works and could go down in the middle of July when the rapper goes on his Europe tour.

If that star power was not enough, Kai Cenat is teasing a future live stream with Lil Uzi Vert. In a recent clip, the New York native is letting his fans in on some work he has been doing behind the scenes. “Uzi on stream is going to be f***ing insane”, Cenat kept repeating. With that sort of proclamation, it seems like it is bound to happen very soon. Fans want this to come to fruition and for a couple of reasons.

For one, Cenat and Uzi have some incredibly natural and hilarious chemistry together. They have grown fond of each other over time and have previously linked up. One of the highlight moments was when Kai got to be behind the scenes of the music video shoot for “I Just Wanna Rock”. The other factor is that fans feel this would be a great opportunity for the rapper to start teasing some new music again. It has been a while since the Philly native dropped or teased anything, as their last release was “Red Moon” back in December of last year.

What are your thoughts on Kai Cenat potentially getting Lil Uzi Vert on a live stream? How soon do you think this will happen and why? Will this be Kai’s greatest collaboration of his career? Do you think Uzi should start to tease some new music afterwards if this happens? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding the Kai Cenat and Lil Uzi Vert. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Miami Beach Has Officially Rescinded ‘Sean Diddy Combs Day,’ According To Reports

Diddy (real name Sean Combs) has been stripped of yet another public recognition. Last month, New York City’s Mayor Eric Adams and the Key to the City of New York committee demanded that Diddy return his honor.

Now, officials in Miami Beach are taking matters into their own hands. According to the Miami Herald, on June 27, the city wide celebration, Sean Diddy Combs Day, was formally rescinded.

In 2016, then Mayor Philip Levine and the City Commission announced the decision to recognize, October 13, as the vanity holiday during the 3rd Revolt Music Conference. At the root of the decision to defunct the day, representatives cited the graphic video, in which Diddy is seen assaulting his ex-girlfriend and former Bad Boy Records singer Cassie.

The governing body behind the decision, the Miami Beach Commission, released a statement shortly after.

“Upon reflection, the Mayor and City Commission have determined that recognizing October 13, 2016 as ’Sean Diddy Combs Day’ is no longer in harmony with the City’s values of safety,” read the note. “Community well-being, and respect, and wish to rescind the proclamation.”

Diddy has not issued a statement regarding the matter.

Although Diddy is not a native of Miami Beach, he does own property in the city and has spent a great deal of time between there and his other home in Los Angeles. In March, both properties were raided by Homeland Security, reportedly in connection with a sex trafficking investigation. During the Los Angeles raid, Diddy’s sons Justin and Christian were supposedly detained by officials, then later released.

Through his legal representatives, Diddy has maintained his innocence of any wrongdoing.

Eminem, Big Sean, And BabyTron Are Ready To Cause Lyrical Nightmares In Their Video Trailer For Single ‘Tobey’

Despite fans’ pushback, the seemingly professional burial of Eminem’s rap alter ego is moving full steam ahead. With his forthcoming album The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce) on the way, Em is treating supporters to another taste of what’s to coming from the project.

Yesterday (June 28), the “Houdini” rapper took to X (formerly Twitter) page to tease his next single, “Tobey,” which is set to feature Big Sean and BabyTron.

“TOBEY. @babytron. @bigsean. New music 7/2. Video 7/5 by @colebennett,” he wrote.

In the gory clip, the trio, dressed in uniform coveralls, serve their most intimating mean mug to prove that Detroit has vested stakes in the “Big Three” conversation. With a chainsaw and creepy Jason Voorhees mask replica, Eminem hacks away at something just outside the camera’s frame, it is clear he means business.

As Babytron is heard rapping, “Tobey Maguire got bit by a spider but see me it was a GOAT,” Eminem’s love for film certainly found its way into the forthcoming collaboration.

Instead of fighting crime (as hilariously seen in the “Houdini” visual), Eminem, Big Sean, and BabyTron plan on wrecking havoc in the rap streets. With creative mind, Lyrical Lemonade’s Bennett, tasked to bring the vision to the screen, come July 5, the nightmares are soon to follow.

Jeezy Makes Light Of Jeannie Mai Divorce On New Remix Of JT’s “OKAY”

by

Jeezy graced the remix of JT’s “OKAY” yesterday (Friday, June 28), and fans quickly realized that it was a much messier single than they perhaps anticipated. Moreover, there are multiple bars from the former on here than either outright reference or subtly allude to his contentious and drama-filled divorce from Jeannie Mai. “Summer 24, I’m single as a dollar bill,” he raps on the cut. “Handsome and wealthy, can’t forget the fact a n***a real.” It seems like The Snowman really wanted to make a statement and speak on his current state with this remix, and we’re sure that this won’t be the last addition to this saga.

However, some fans might be confused because, as far as they knew, Jeezy and Jeannie Mai just finalized their divorce earlier this month. The process was very combative, including domestic abuse allegations against the rapper and claims that he unsafely kept an AK-47 in their home and brandished it while leaving many firearms and a lot of ammunition in easily accessible places. “Why you got choppers in ya house? ‘Cause I’m a n***a still / A b***h’ll never catch me slipping, yeah, banana peel / Ever lost a real one? You dropped the ball baby,” he raps on the “OKAY” remix.

JT & Jeezy’s “OKAY” Remix: Watch The Music Video

Elsewhere on the song, Jeezy flexes his longevity by challenging hip-hop’s biggest story of 2024 so far: the Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef. “You’re taking off this summer? I said n***a, naw / All I’m hearing about is Drizzy Drake and K.Dot / Been on fire twenty years, b***h, I stay hot,” he spits on the track. It would be very interesting to hear what an Atlanta legend like himself would have to say about that battle. Did the 6ix God run to him for a couple of dollars or did he wipe Kendrick down?

Regardless, Jeezy did receive some defense from his circle amid the Jeannie Mai divorce, and so did she from her loved ones. Hopefully things slow down in the future and they turn this sad end into an amicable, accountable, and responsible future. These moments are never easy, and perhaps rapping about it on a record will exacerbate this difficulty. But only time will tell.

Lil Durk Gets Dragged Online By Fans Over His New Single, “Went Hollywood For A Year”

by

Lil Durk’s new single “Went Hollywood For A Year” is a pretty personal cut talking about his rise to fame and his attempts to stay grounded in the industry. However, if it doesn’t bump, a lot of fans won’t feel it, and it seems like that’s a prevailing sentiment online as their reactions poured in. Of course, some people will just hate to hate, and we doubt that he feels overly annoyed about this negative reception that his success turns into an easy thing to ignore. But still, considering the wide range of his fanbase and his previous hype, many die-hards seem to think the Chicago rapper has a lot to prove.

In fact, Lil Durk might not even care at all about this particular response, as he recently failed to secure what could’ve been a massive dub for his city. Moreover, he recently posted a DM he sent to LeBron James offering to pay him and his son Bronny to play for the Chicago Bulls. Obviously, we now know that Bronny stuck with his dad’s current court, the Los Angeles Lakers, for the start of his NBA basketball journey. So Smurk is probably sitting on a lot of cash right now, forever haunted by the father-son duo that didn’t join his team.

Lil Durk Fans React To “Went Hollywood For A Year”

Jokes aside, Lil Durk also proved this year that his path took a very different turn, and that there are more important things than music to focus on sometimes. For example, he recently spoke to TMZ about his stint in rehab to treat his addiction to lean and Xanax. “I wanted better,” Durkio remarked. “I wanted to be a better man, a better father, a better leader. I’m thinking clearer. My main goal is peace, being with the family and staying out of bulls**t.

More Fan Reactions

“I just see myself staying on the right track and trying to change a lot of lives,” Lil Durk continued. “This for the youth or the older people who wanna do better and feel like they embarrassed or like people gonna talk about them. In Chicago I wanna build [a rehab facility] because I know what it did for me. I know it could help a lot of people.”

Cardi B Fans Look For New Album Clues In Her BET Experience Performance

by

Cardi B has fans foaming at the mouth for her new album, and her latest live performance at BET‘s Experience event last night (Friday, June 28) is adding fuel to that fire. Moreover, many die-hards looked for clues that she allegedly said would be in this show concerning her next LP, and they reached a couple of interesting conclusions. The big topic of conversation online seems to be the Bronx femcee’s jersey with the number “11” on it, which many admirers took to be the main clue of focus. Might this suggest a November release date, the title, the 11th day of a particular month, or something we don’t even understand yet?

Regardless, this is far from the first time that fans have interpreted signals in this fashion in their search for information on the new album. For example, Cardi B’s recent Princess Diana tribute also sparked rumors about the long-awaited project, although there wasn’t much to go by this time around. Of course, there’s a strong likelihood that this is all deliberate, just building up pieces of hype to inspire more engagement. But it’s also possible that these hints will become much more clear and understandable in hindsight.

However, Cardi B’s high horse these days based on this excitement received some attempted blowback from another top contender: Nicki Minaj. This is due to Bardi’s recent acceptance speech at Hollywood Unlocked‘s Impact Awards positioning herself as the leader. “Hi so let’s get into this right now,” Nicki tweeted shortly after this speech went viral. “I’m that Btch. That’s Number 1. Number 2. Revisit number one. If it means you gotta revisit that s**t 500 times a day, DO IT!!!!!!!! Before you EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!! Think bout playing pon MY BOMBOROSCLOT HEADTOP!!!!!”

Meanwhile, these Impact Awards also prompted pregnancy rumors amid Cardi B’s turbulent relationship with Offset. Obviously, those are just a part of the rumor mill, so take that with a grain of salt. Either way, there are a lot of reasons to continue to invest in this new album cycle. Hopefully, we get more hints and updates in the near future that are a bit more concrete.

The Fugees Are Reportedly Working On A New Album

by

There are not many hip-hop collectives that you can rank above the Fugees. Even with their short run as a group, the amount of creative talent between Wyclef Jean, Pras Mitchell, and Ms. Lauryn Hill is nearly unmatched. They left an indelible mark on the community through the effortless blending of other genres while also being lyrically sound. The Score is recognized as an essential 1990s record, but also a must-listen for any fan of rap. They laid down so many great tracks like “Killing Me Softly With His Song”, “Ready or Not”, and “Fu-Gee-La”. Now, it seems the Fugees are looking to craft more unforgettable tracks, as they are reportedly working on a new album.

According to an undisclosed source with Page Six, the three-headed monster is ready to make a comeback after 28 years. Following their unfortunate split, Hill, Jean, and Pras all went on to forge their own paths. Only one of them extended beyond the 90s decade, and the other two dropped just one record in 1998. But as of late the Fugees have been performing more frequently under their stage name.

According to Hollywood Unlocked, it was around this time last year that they performed at the Roots Picnic in Philadelphia. Additionally, the Fugees made appearances at the Global Citizen’s Festival in Central Park and then the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California, later that same year. Now, pretty soon, Hill and the gang are going to be hitting the stage on 21 separate occasions. In August, the tour celebrating the 25th anniversary of The Miseducation is restarting after Hill was forced to cancel her run last year due to a serious vocal strain. Her and the guys will be traveling across the United States as well as Europe. May be that will be the time they record some new music together?

What are your thoughts on The Fugees reportedly working on a new album? How soon do you think this will drop and why? Where do you rank them all time in terms of rap groups? Should it be a project with no features, or should they include some? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding the Fugees. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

MC Lyte Thinks Sexyy Red Gets Too Much Hate For Her Lewd Music

by

Sexyy Red’s superstardom rose alongside a lot of criticism over her raunchy content and presentation, which has sadly never been an uncommon reaction to femcees. One of the most legendary female rappers of all time, MC Lyte, recently reflected on this history during an interview with The Neighborhood Talk at BET‘s Media House ahead of their awards show this Sunday (June 30). However, it’s important to note that her comments on the St. Louis MC don’t really seek to answer the question of whether or not this should be an approach that women in hip-hop continue to engage with. Rather, it calls out double standards and a lack of historical context and knowledge that leads to unjust vilification.

“Nothing that we see is really new,” MC Lyte’s remarks on Sexyy Red began. “And so, you know, we’ve all lived through the advent of ‘My Neck, My Back.’ Trina, Kim, Foxy… You know, so we lived that. So nothing surprises us, I don’t think. As an artist, as a creator, everyone’s always pushing the limits and the boundaries. But also, she didn’t pop out of a planet. She came from a neighborhood where this is how they speak to one another, this is how they communicate. And so this is definitely art imitating life. I think it’s important for people to know that it appears to me that she’s being herself. Whenever you’re being yourself, how can anybody argue with that?”

MC Lyte’s Thoughts On Sexyy Red

Of course, we know that MC Lyte herself isn’t immune to lewd and controversial content. In fact, her comments about age gaps back in the day probably would get much more flack today than anything that Sexyy Red is doing in particular. But context is everything, and time heals all -– well, most wounds. Who knows how folks would’ve reacted to “Bow Bow Bow (F My Baby Dad)” back in 1991?

Meanwhile, MC Lyte also came to the defense of other rappers like LL Cool J and even President Joe Biden when it comes to their public perception. When Biden called LL “boy,” it sparked a debate around the connotations of the word. Like a lot of other people online, Lyte didn’t find it to be a big deal and instead opted for empathy and forgiveness. We’ll see how this Sexyy Red take ages in comparison.

Bronny James Wearing “9” To Honor Juice WRLD Lebron Reveals

by

Bronny James’ path to landing on the Los Angeles Lakers via the 2024 NBA Draft is not as easy as some are making it out to be. Obviously, his dad played a fairly substantial role in helping him make his dream a reality. But the USC product had to still put in all of the work to train, learn the game, eat right, and etc. to get noticed to begin with. Fans are also quick to forget that he dealt with a major roadblock before his collegiate career even got underway. While training, the guard went into cardiac arrest, and it was a pretty scary moment for him and his family.

He never let that deter him and instead absorbed all the noise and now he can say what many people cannot, “I’m an NBA player”. All of this adversity is why Bronny James is wearing number “9” this season, as he is paying respect to the late rap legend, Juice WRLD. LeBron revealed this according to a Shade Room IG repost. It was revealed a while back that the 19-year-old got “999” tattooed behind his ear. For those unfamiliar, Juice WRLD essentially gave that three-digit number meaning by including it in every part of his life. According to Genius, the Chicago icon also tweeted back in 2018 about its significance.

“I took the hell I was going through (666) and flipped it over into something positive (999)”. Bronny James is certainly not going to stop hearing people talk down on him when he hits the NBA hardwood. Like LeBron, he is going to be under a microscope for everything he does. Bronny is already enduring “hell” in that regard, but he looks to be ready for the challenge. If Juice WRLD were here, there is no question he would be proud of the young star.

What are your thoughts on Bronny James wearing number nine for the late Juice WRLD? Did you know the meaning the rapper gave “999”? How do you think his career in the NBA will pan out? What kind of player do you think he will resemble the most? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.
