Remy Ma previously spent time behind bars herself following a conviction on multiple charges, including assault and attempted coercion, in 2008. At the time, she served six years of an eight-year sentence in prison before getting out of Bedford Hills Correctional Facility for Women in 2014. During that time, she and her partner, Papoose, remained in a committed relationship. They married in 2016 and share one child together, who they welcomed in 2018. The rough news for Remy and her family comes after she celebrated her 44th birthday with an extravagant Cinderella-themed party, earlier this month. Fat Joe, French Montana, and Maino were all in attendance at the event.

50 Cent Checks BMF Co-Founder Southwest T For Meeting With Enemy’s Son

June 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

50 Cent has some choice words for Southwest T. The BMF (Black Mafia Family) co-founder crossed enemy lines over Father’s Day weekend, as he met up with Kenneth McGriff Jr., who is the son of Kenneth McGriff Sr. (aka Supreme). The former drove “nine hours” to see Southwest T and gift him some apparel. For context, the latter had allegedly try to organize the murder of 50 Cent back in the early 2000s when he got hit nine times. The G-Unit mastermind caught wind of this link-up due to a commenter on Instagram sharing similar disdain for Southwest T’s switch-up.

So, as 50 Cent normally does, he hopped on his keyboard and sent a pretty hilarious but threatening message to T, according to AllHipHop. “Hey I know T feel like he is not making the money @lilmeechbmf is making but I thought they would all be happy for him”, he begins. “It’s not like I didn’t help your family make millions. Cool when STARZ start suggesting the wrong moves, I’m simply going to sit and watch. Don’t worry you will be off the air in no time.”

Outside of the hatred that 50 has for the McGriff family, this is also in relation to the BMF television series that he executive produced. It follows the drug trafficking and money laundering operation of Demetrius “Big Meech” Flenory and Terry “Southwest T” Flenory back in the 1980s. Lil Meech, the son of “Big Meech”, plays his dad in the program.

What are your thoughts on the warning shot from 50 Cent toward Southwest T? Do you think that this is a great move by Fif, why or why not? What do you think Southwest T is up to by linking with the enemy? Could you see this escalating any further? If so, what do you see the worst-case scenario being? 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 50 Cent.

June 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Pusha T and No Malice are coming under fire on social media for rocking purses during their appearance at the Louis Vuitton Menswear Show in Paris on Tuesday. At the event, they premiered a new unreleased collaboration with John Legend. The move comes as they gear up for the release of a new Clipse album entirely produced by Pharrell.

When TheHipHopWolf shared a video of the two on social media, fans in the comments section complained about the outfits. “Never thought I’d see the day them boys carrying/wearing purses damn,” one user wrote. Another added: “Real men don’t carry purses.. it doesn’t matter who they are made by.”

The two members of Clipse announced the upcoming reunion album during an exclusive interview with Vulture published on Wednesday. Describing the project, Push said: “I think the album shows the supreme maturation of a rap duo. I think this is where you get the difference between taste and filler. This music is curated. This is a high taste-level piece of work. You can only have that level of taste when you have the fundamentals down to a science. I think it’s been definitely missing. Then there’s the competitive aspect.” As for working with Pharrell, he added: “Pharrell producing everything is also an ode to the type of music and the type of albums we want to make. We still want to make full bodies of work. These are movies, man. These aren’t just songs. This isn’t just a collection of joints we went in and banged out.”

The Game Sparks Heated Debate Online After Posting Photos With His Daughter

June 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The Game always takes pride in being a caring and loving father. However, some people are not seeing that one bit somehow. Not too long ago, the California rapper is a father of three shared some cute family pics with everyone wearing an all-baby blue color scheme. He captioned the collage, “Being a father is definitely what I’m best at.” The first photo sees the rapper, along with one of his sons and his daughter, California. However, it is the two that follow that are creating chatter. The debate here is that The Game is getting too intimate with his daughter.

As you can see below, California is sitting in his lap, with two different actions. In the first one, The Game lays a smooch on the cheek. The subsequent image shows him resting his forehead on her shoulder. Seeing upset people in the comments section of the 44-year-old’s posts is nothing new. In fact, just about a week ago, the Atlanta Black Star News reported that The Game deleted a ton of photos from his IG, including a touching post showing how proud he was of California for graduating from the 8th grade.

The people who are having issues with how the lyricist shows loves to his kids are making the argument that he is too inappropriate and intimate with them. Some of the remarks under the post above include: “Guess what? Us girls with no daddy issues and active dad’s can still find this weird. They look like a couple”. “I’m not gonna lie I thought this was his woman before I read the comments. My Father was in my life and very affectionate but not like this. #strangefruit”. However, there are a lot of other users combating these wild assertions. “A lot of y’all didn’t have good relationships with your fathers and it shows. Let that man love on his daughter. She only gets one father and he’s not always gonna be here. I wish I had my daddy to drape my legs across and bother the heck out of. I miss him and wish I had more time”.

DJ Mustard Reveals How Long It Took Him To Make Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” Beat

June 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

DJ Mustard may very well be having one of the best years of any producer in the game. Sure, Metro Boomin has two albums out with Future. However, Mustard gave us the beat to “Not Like Us” which is arguably the song of the summer. Overall, it is a song that has served as a major rallying cry for fans, and it also helped Kendrick Lamar win his beef against Drake. Moreover, Mustard will be dropping Faith Of A Mustard Seed on June 28th and the album will feature some huge names.

Recently, Mustard sat down with Billboard where he discussed the new album and his hit song “Not Like Us.” It was here where he revealed five things about the beat that no one knows yet. Firstly, he maintained that he did not sample “Ether.” Secondly, he noted how he only heard the song along with everyone else, and had no idea what Kendrick would do with the beat. From there, he noted that his mindset was to embody how Dr. Dre would move if Lil Jon was in the studio looking to collab on production.

Mustard’s Thought Process: “What would Dr. Dre do if Lil Jon was in the studio & they were collabing on a beat?”

He also says he:

— took about 30 mins to make the beat

Subsequently, Mustard explained how it only took him a total of 30 minutes to make the beat for the record. Lastly, he was pretty stunned by just how well Kendrick performed on top of it. When you think about the bars and the cadences, it could very well have been the greatest verses ever laid on a Mustard beat. So there you have it. Sometimes, genius doesn’t need to take years to create.

Let us know what you thought of the beat to “Not Like Us,” in the comments section down below. Do you believe that this is the best beat of the year so far? How do you feel like this song stacks up to the other iconic diss songs of all time? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Young Thug Trial: Lil Woody Makes Good Use Of His Week Off With Some Poolside Relaxation

June 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Overall, the Young Thug trial has proven to be one of the most complicated ongoing stories in hip-hop. There are reports that this trial could very well last all the way until 2027. Moreover, there have been numerous issues involving witnesses and their testimony. There has also been accusations of ex-parte meetings and witness intimidation from the side of the prosecution. Young Thug’s lawyer Brian Steel even attempted to have Judge Ural Glanville recused from the trial.

One of the key witnesses in the trial is Lil Woody. As we have reported over the past couple of weeks, the Woody situation has been a bit bizarre, to say the least. He fired his lawyer in the middle of his testimony. Furthermore, he was jailed after refusing to testify during one of the court dates. Not to mention, whenever he does testify, he ends up wasting the court’s time by stalling and asking repeated questions. This week, Lil Woody has some time to himself, and it appears as though he is making the most of it.

Only time will tell how things play out for all of the parties involved here.

June 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Trick Daddy allegedly prevented a woman from appearing on Love & Hip-Hop after she refused his sexual advances, according to a user on Instagram by the name of Ravinia Ricki. The drama began when the veteran rapper shared screenshots from a text conversation of an argument in which he called an unidentified person a “sh*t eater.” Afterward, Ricki shared a screenshot of an alleged text conversation between the two of them in which he remarks, “I just told them no more recording with you,” after she appears to shoot him down.

“My genuine heart gets me F*ked over every time I’m so over it,” Ricki wrote in the caption. “If you ever wonder why I’m not on love n hip hop Miami it’s because I refuse to sleep with trick daddy disrespect self . Idk why tf I had to to get on the show as his love interest and not a new artist in Miami that’s been grinding for years in the game ….I’m about to go tf off on everyone and everything … I swear”

Clipse Reveal That Their Upcoming Album Will Be Produced By Pharrell

June 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In an exclusive interview with Vulture, Pusha T and No Malice (Clipse) announced that their new album will be entirely produced by Pharrell. This one heck of bombshell, as the Virginia-based duo are making their return after 15 long years. In 2009 we got Til The Casket Drops, which had eight songs featuring Pharrell production. So, it is great to hear that even after all of this time, the band is still getting back together. We do not much else about the record, as Pusha T and No Malice kept the details to a minimum. The important thing is we know we are getting a Clipse record soon, which will be one of high quality they promise.

“I think this is where you get the difference between taste and filler. This music is curated. This is a high taste-level piece of work. You can only have that level of taste when you have the fundamentals down to a science. I think it’s been definitely missing”, Push told Vulture. Malice doubled down on that take, affirming, “This is smart basketball. It’s fundamentals”.

Clipse Are Curating A “High Taste-Level” Album Along With Pharrell

“And not only that, it’s authenticity. It’s what rap should look like if you’re real about your craft, real about your experience, real about your storytelling. It’s bringing the fans along to see the growth, not trying to fit in or fabricate”, Malice added. If this is out of the blue news to you, there was some hope that a Clipse album could be a possibility. King Push did tell Complex that fans could “100% bet” on either getting a solo album from him or a reuniting effort. Additionally, the duo premiered an unreleased collab with John Legend at a Louis Vuitton show in Paris.

What are your thoughts on the next Clipse record being produced by Pharell? Will this be one of the best rap albums of the year, why or why not? Do you think this could be their strongest LP in their discography? When do you see them dropping this? 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 Clipse and Pharrell. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.
