Diddy Holds His Youngest Daughter In New Photo: “My Love”

May 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy has shared a photo of himself holding up his youngest daughter, Love, on Instagram. “My Love,” he captioned the post with a heart emoji. In the adorable picture, he’s wrapping the 1-year-old in an orange towel. Diddy kept the comments section open on the post, promoting plenty of trolling from users in response to the myriad of allegations he’s faced in recent months.

One fan posted: “He looking for sympathy… did you give Cassie empathy??? Somebody get those kids away from him.. call dfacs.” Another wrote: “BRO! YOU SHOULDN’T BE AROUND UNDERAGE CHILDREN!” One more added: “I never understood males who have daughter but yet do disgusting stuff to other men daughter????” The comments come despite Diddy denying all of the claims made against him.

The post also comes after Diddy’s son, King Combs, came to his defense in the song, “Pick A Side,” earlier this week. On the track, he addresses the Homeland Security raids on his family’s properties, rapping: “Police raid the crib like they think we selling crack, but we out here selling tracks / multimillion dollar plaques.” He also addresses the viral, “No Diddy,” meme and calls out 50 Cent for trolling his father on Instagram. “When all they had was 50 Cent who put the city on the map?/ Stop lying, pops been hated on by many men and n***a, that’s fine/ They gon’ try to stop these Eminems and they gon’ die trying,’” he raps.

50 Cent Shifts His Instagram Trolling To Jay-Z

May 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

50 Cent is one of the most relentless trolls on the internet and he almost never slows down. For months now he’s been taking shots at Diddy near constantly. Long before much of the internet was reacting to the rap mogul’s homes being raided by the FBI, 50 had been roasting him regularly since the lawsuit filed against him by Cassie last year. Recently he’s shifted his focus to Meek Mill, who was mentioned in another viral Diddy lawsuit. 50 has repeatedly attacked him over his association with Diddy and more recently, the fact that his last EP has incredibly underwhelming sales numbers.

But now 50 is taking aim at a new target. He’s brought up Jay-Z a few times in his trolling campaign though never quite as directly as right now. Earlier today he posted a picture making fun of the legendary rapper’s looks with a caption that seems to imply he may be caught up in Diddy drama. “Jay in hibernation he ain’t coming outside till this sh*t with puff blow over, no brunch, no lunch, No dinner. LOL IM ALL YOU GOT IM OUTSIDE” the post’s caption reads. In the comments, fans muse on what exactly 50 might mean with the post and whether or not there’s actually any evidence for what he’s implying. Check out the post and variety of fan reactions in the comments below.

Even though 50 rarely ever stops posting about other rappers and celebrities, recently they’ve been on his mind even more. His long-running feud with Ja Rule recently found the rapper chastising him over the Minnesota Timberwolves dropping three straight games in the NBA playoffs. He’s also been taking shots at other Diddy associates like King Combs and Stevie J.

What do you think of 50 Cent’s newest Instagram post taking aim at Jay-Z by making fun of his looks? Do you think 50 implication that Jay has been off the radar recently for a reason has any merit? Let us know in the comment section below.

Saucy Santana Mocks DJ Akademiks For Deactivating IG Account Amid Rape Lawsuit Reports

May 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s no secret that DJ Akademiks and Saucy Santana don’t get along, and a new lawsuit brought against the former has only upped the ante. Yesterday, DJ Akademiks’ ex-girlfriend Ziya Abashe sued him, accusing him of rape, sexual assault, defamation, and more. Ak has since denied any wrongdoing, calling the lawsuit a “shakedown.”

Saucy Santana decided to chime in on the allegations during an Instagram Live rant last night, dubbing Ak a “freaky b*tch.” He also reminded the personality that when serious allegations were made against Santana’s close friend Yung Miami, Akademiks didn’t hold back. He instead taunted the City Girl online, even accusing her of snitching on Diddy. Of course, this rubbed Santana the wrong way, and Akademiks’ new lawsuit is an opportunity for him to fire back.

Saucy Santana Calls DJ Akademiks “Nasty”

At the time of writing, DJ Akademiks’ Instagram profile appears to have been deactivated, leaving Saucy Santana confused. According to the “Material Girl” performer, Yung Miami never deactivated her account amid Ak’s relentless criticism. In a new clip, Saucy Santana questions why he decided to deactivate, urging him to get back online to face his current circumstances. “Where yo page?” Saucy Santana asks. “You was on here every day messing with Caresha, she ain’t deactivate. I’m looking for Akademiks’ page… ‘We’re sorry.’ Uh uh! Bring that a** here, boy. You should have deactivated when you was messing with that lady, got that lady drunk, on top of that lady and all of that. Ew, nasty.”

He went on, further clowning Akademiks for the disturbing allegations made against him in the new lawsuit. What do you think of Saucy Santana calling out DJ Akademiks for deactivating his Instagram account? What about Akademiks’ ex suing him?

Cardi B Celebrates Having 4 Songs With More Than A Billion Streams On Spotify

May 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Collecting over a billion streams on Spotify is an incredible achievement. Thousands of songs are uploaded to the platform every day and only a small fraction of them ever have a chance to get close to the impressive milestone. That’s why its so stunning when some of the biggest artists around pull off the massive achievement multiple times. That’s the case with Cardi B who lands two of her own songs and two high profile featured appearances on the list of songs with over 1 billion streams. She recently stopped by Spotify’s Billionaires Club series to reflect on all four of the songs.

Each of her billion stream songs is a collaboration, though two of them are her own tracks. “I Like It” landed on her debut album Invasion Of Privacy back in 2018. The song became an absolute smash hit after the album dropped and featured memorable performances from Bad Bunny and J Balvin. A few years later she dropped “WAP” her sexually charged crossover with Megan Thee Stallion. Both songs have comfortably surpassed 1 billion streams. She’s also credited for two smash hits she features on. The first is Maroon 5’s 2018 smash hit “Girls Like You.” The second is DJ Snake’s “Taki Taki” which also features Selena Gomez and Ozuna. Check out her reflecting on all four of the billion-stream songs below.

Cardi B Talks About Her Biggest Hits For Spotify

Fans were hoping that 2024 would be the year Cardi released a full new album worth of songs that could potentially hit 1 billion streams. She is still yet to follow up her 2018 debut studio album Invasion Of Privacy. 2024 got off to a promising start with her dropping two singles already. But earlier this week she tweeted and then deleted a claim that there would be no new album in 2024 as she was taking the time to relax.

What do you think of Cardi B’s thoughts on her four different songs that have been streamed more than 1 billion times on Spotify? Are there any tracks you’re surprised have crossed the billion stream threshold? Let us know in the comment section below.

Jeezy Accuses Jeannie Mai Of “Weaponizing” Their Daughter Amid Rocky Divorce

May 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In September of last year, Jeezy filed for a divorce from his wife of two years, Jeannie Mai. The proceedings have grown increasingly contentious in the months since, particularly when it comes to their only child, Monaco. Previously, Jeezy has asked the judge to toss out their custody arrangement to give him more time with their daughter. Last month, she accused him of leaving weapons around the child, putting her at serious risk. She also accused him of physical assault, alleging that he once struck her in the face, pushed her down a staircase, and more. He denies the allegations.

Now, Jeezy has filed a motion to modify their divorce agreement, asking a judge to modify certain temporary issues, including custody of Monaco. In the court documents, obtained by The Blast, he accuses his ex of “weaponizing” his love for the little one to try to get what she wants in the divorce.

Allegedly, Mai hasn’t been holding up her end of the deal when it comes to honoring Jeezy’s time with the child. “Unfortunately, the Respondent is weaponizing Petitioner’s love for the parties’ minor child against him in hopes that he will concede to Respondent’s unrealistic and erratic demands,” the court documents read. Mai has yet to respond.

This isn’t the first time Jeezy’s accused Mai of withholding their daughter from him, however. In November, he alleged that she was acting as a “gatekeeper” when it came to Jeezy’s time with Monaco, arguing that it’d be best for all involved to keep a consistent and fair schedule. What do you think of Jeezy accusing his estranged wife Jeannie Mai of weaponizing their daughter amid their contentious divorce?

He explained at the time that he suffered a health scare after getting intimate with his ex-wife. “That was scaring me so much that it was a mindf*ck, because I had to stay calm and make sure she didn’t hear me panic or hear me struggle to breathe,” he admitted. “I’m butt-ass naked in the living room, trying to calm myself down. She was like, ‘Yo, this is not who I fell in love with.’ She didn’t know what had happened outside, but she was looking at my body and the weight, she was like, ‘You gotta lose this weight. This breathing is scaring me. When I met you, you wasn’t like a musclehead, but you, you was slim, you was cut, you had your sh*t right. I need you to get back to who I fell in love with.’”

DJ Akademiks Gets Called Out For Defending Drake’s Kiss With Underage Girl

May 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s no secret that DJ Akademiks is a loyal Drake supporter, but during a recent stream, viewers called him out for crossing the line. Ever since Kendrick Lamar accused Drake of being interested in minors on “Not Like Us,” social media sleuths have been looking back on the Canadian rapper’s past. They’ve managed to dig up some seriously questionable moments in the process. In one resurfaced clip, for example, he’s seen thirsting over a 17-year-old girl onstage, and kissing her even after she told him how old she was.

For obvious reasons, the clip has many viewers concerned and convinced that Kendrick may have been on to something. DJ Akademiks, on the other hand, thinks it doesn’t prove much. During a recent stream, he debated with his own fans about the clip, leaving them in awe with his willingness to brush off the behavior.

DJ Akademiks Put On Blast During Stream

“That was like 15 years ago,” he says in a clip from the stream. “Drake was like 20. I’m not saying that was cool…” Immediately, the fans began to question his take, calling him out for defending the performer. “Hold on, so just because it was 15 years ago, it completely negates the fact that he found out she was underage and then proceeded to kiss her on the lips?” one of them asked. “I’m not saying it’s not odd,” Ak responded. “I’m just saying if that’s the only thing you have and you’re trying to paint him as this weird sexual deviant, and that’s the only thing you can fall back on because nothing else holds water…”

What do you think of DJ Akademiks defending Drake for his behavior onstage with a 17-year-old girl? What about him getting called out by his own viewers? Should he take back what he said? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Kehlani Announced Their Fourth Album ‘Crash’ And Its Release Date With A Crushing Album Cover Reveal

May 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kehlani is about to have the summer on lock. Last month, they released a new single, “After Hours,” a sexy ladies anthem sung over the Coolie Dance riddim — popularized in songs like Nina Sky’s “Move Ya Body,” Pitbull’s “Culo,” and Elephant Man’s “Jook Gal.” Today (May 14), Kehlani has announced their new album, Crash.

Set to arrive this summer, Crash marks Kehlani’s fourth studio album. On the cover art, they are seen seated on top of a car with a broken windshield, wearing a dress made out of shiny glass.

While the look of the album’s cover and the title itself may sound ominous, Kehlani revealed in an interview with Apple Music 1’s Zane Lowe last month that recording Crash was the most fun they’ve ever had making music.

“I wanted to make things for once that didn’t feel reminiscent,” Kehlani said. “For once, I’m not attached to some story or some public thing or some trauma or some deep explanations. As we go out this process and we have to talk to each other a bunch to all these people, I have nothing but joyful things to say to you. I’m in such a happy place. I’m ready to be outside.”

You can see the Crash cover art below.

Crash is out 6/21 via Atlantic. Find more information here.
