What Did Drake Say To ASAP Rocky Before The ‘Show Of Hands’ Diss?

April 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Drake’s got some “F*ckin’ Problems” lately. His most immediate appears to be that half the rappers who appeared with him on that song in 2013 seem to hate him now — or at least, that’s rap kayfabe these days. Drake’s feud with Kendrick has turned into a full-blown ambush, with ASAP Rocky and The Weeknd joining the festivities on Future and Metro Boomin’s new album We Still Don’t Trust You. Drake’s the Toranaga of hip-hop’s version of Shogun and at this point, it looks like Future is Kazunari, leading the rest of the regents against him.

However, unlike the Japanese feudal lord in that show, it could be argued that Drake’s brought a lot of this on himself. For instance, ASAP Rocky probably wouldn’t have thrown shots in his “Show My Hands” verse had Drake left well enough alone on his most recent album, For All The Dogs. In multiple songs — “Fear Of Heights,” “Virginia Beach,” and “Another Late Night” — he makes subtle references to his prior relationship with Rihanna and drops digs at Rocky for ending up with her in the end. Rihanna and Rocky share two children together and have been rumored to be either engaged or married for the past year. Drake also seemingly alluded to Rihanna during his tour for the album earlier this year.

On “Fear Of Heights,” Drake sings, “Why they make it sound like I’m still hung up on you? / That could never be / Gyal can’t ruin me / Better him than me / Better it’s not me / I’m anti, I’m anti / Yeah, and the sex was average with you / Yeah, I’m anti ’cause I had it with you / Okay, I’m auntie like your daddy sister / Auntie like a family picture / And I had way badder b*tches than you, TBH / Yeah, that man, he still with you, he can’t leave you / Y’all go on vacation, I bet it’s Antilles.” Which… come on, man. Do better.

It was all good just a couple of years ago, too. Drake was popping out at ASAP Rocky’s shows in 2019 and gifting him $150k chains in 2020. However, after Rihanna and Rocky went public with their relationship in 2022, Drake unfollowed the pair on Instagram, passive-aggressive millennials’ official signal that “we can’t be friends.” And Drake is nothing if not passive-aggressive.

Rocky appeared to hit back at Drake earlier this year as well, with fans interpreting lines from his verse on Kid Cudi’s album as shots at the Canadian certified lover boy. If 2 Chainz comes out of the woodwork to smoke his “No Lie” collaborator too, Drake’s going to need an intervention. Maybe Post Malone or somebody can be his John Blackthorne.

Cam’ron And Mase Pay Tribute To OJ Simpson: “Thank You Uncle O”

April 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Cam’ron and Mase have rebranded themselves as podcasters. The titans of New York rap have found tremendous success with their sports talk show It Is What It Is, and part of their success stemmed from their ability to book huge guests. The first guest they ever booked? O.J. Simpson. The controversial NFL star was actually one of the most frequent co-hosts on It Is What It Is, which meant his recent passing at age 76 hit the show hard. Cam and Mase took to Instagram to pay their respects.

The duo posted a montage of It Is What It Is episodes featuring O.J. Simpson, along with a caption that expressed their sadness. “We just want to say thank you to Uncle O for gracing us with your presence,” they wrote. “You were definitely one of a kind, you became Uncle O to use cause it was like having a real uncle around. You were very funny and down to Earth.” Cam and Mase then detailed the circumstances in which they first linked up with Simpson. Unbeknownst to longtime listeners, the “Juice” was one of the first co-hosts that were ever considered for the show.

“When we signed our deal the first co-host we thought about having was Uncle O,” they revealed. “We said oh we gone break the internet with #OJ and that we did. You helped make our show 10x better and everyone loved you.” Cam’ron and Mase concluded their heartfelt message by giving thanks to Simpson for his insight and his willingness to poke fun at himself. “We will cherish these last memories we were able to share with you,” the duo added. “You will forever be apart of the It Is What It Is family.”

Unsurprisingly, the episode of It Is What It Is that aired April 12 (two days after Simpson’s passing) was dedicated to him. Cam’ron, Mase, Treasure “Stat Baby” Wilson and special guest Maurice Clarett spoke at length about the NFL star’s impact on the show. They also praised his sports acumen and his ability to speak candidly and convincingly on the subject of football.

O.J. Simpson’s family confirmed his death via X (formerly Twitter). They are asking that the public “respect their wishes for privacy and grace” at this time.

Pouya Reveals XXXTentacion Helped Him During His Girlfriend’s Cancer Diagnosis

April 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Pouya is an influential figure. His early mixtapes, coupled with YouTube channel Nick and Pouya Show, influenced a generation of Florida emcees. XXXTentacion was one of these emcees, as evidenced by an interview clip that was recently posted on social media. X praised Pouya and Denzel Curry as inspirations on his sound. Pouya had never seen the interview clip prior to its resurfacing, and was so overcome with emotion that he shared his experiences with the “Sad” hitmaker on Instagram.

The rapper told followers that he was humbled by XXXTentacion’s comments. “Wow someone just sent me this, I never seen this before,” he wrote. ” Damn man, this made me happy and sad at the same time.” The real revelation came, however, when the rapper started to reflect on a difficult period in his life. A period that was alleviated, somewhat, and aided by X’s presence. Pouya revealed that X was there for him when his girlfriend, Coco, was battling cancer, and offered unconditional support in the process. “I never really talk about this but when Coco was going through cancer X would FaceTime me all the time,” he recalled. “[He’d] give me advice on how to get through it, sucks that he’s gone. Idk this s**t put a fire in me.”

Pouya Claimed XXXTentacion Gave Him Advice

A post shared by @pouya

Pouya’s admiration for XXXTentacion has been well-documented. The rapper penned a tribute to X on his 2019 album The South Got Something To Say. The tribute was titled “When Will I See You?” and it features bars in which X’s death prompted him to consider his own mortality. “Murder, overdose, and suicide,” he raps. “Am I the next one to die? Will I fly with Peep or fry? X is written up in the sky.” These thoughts are still weighing heavy on Pouya’s shoulders, evidently, as the rapper recently announced his plans to retire from hip-hop.

Days before his post on XXXTentacion, Pouya issued an official retirement statement. He informed fans that he will stop releasing music after his upcoming album, Album 6. “After grey day and my album, I’m going to be stepping away from music,” he wrote. “It’s been f**king fun but I’m exhausted. Love you f**kers though.” There’s no set release date for Album 6, but fans eager to listen to more Pouya can currently stream his new EP All But 6, Vol. 2 with Fat Nick.

So, you’re on your way to Coachella to catch Doja Cat, Lana Del Rey, or Tyler The Creator; you’ve read our packing guide, you’ve worked out the set schedules, and carpool karaoke is in full swing. But as you get closer to the site of the festival, you’ve just realized you have no idea where to park!

Have no fear, my friends. Uproxx has you covered.

The Preferred Parking for Coachella 2024 can be accessed by Ave 49 or Monroe St. — but NOT Hjorth St. Once you’re parked, take a photo or drop a pin and enter the festival through the north entrance. No parking entry will be allowed after 10pm and the lot’s open from 11am to 2am each day of the festival. If your car is still there after that, it might get towed, so don’t try to park overnight. Parking attendants will be checking wristbands for entry, so make sure everybody in your car is wearing one. There are no vehicle in-and-outs, so dropping off and picking up should be done at the appropriate lot (2A Camping Companion Parking). The nearest charging stations are at Walgreens (for Level 2) and Torre Nissan (Fast Charging), so make sure to fill that battery before you park.

As a bonus to encourage carpooling, if your car has four or more people and is decorated for CARPOOLCHELLA, you could even win free VIP for life! Click here for more information.

J. Cole Being On “WE STILL DON’T TRUST YOU” Is Viewed As Him Double-Crossing Drake By Fans

April 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Once again, Metro Boomin and Future have stirred the pot. They have been the ones who helped kick off piling on Drake and now they are adding more fuel to the fire. Kendrick Lamar sent some serious warning shots on “Like That,” but that was all the hating on Drizzy from WE DON’T TRUST YOU. The project’s sequel on the other hand, has turned things up notch. The Weeknd and A$AP Rocky took the time to get some things off their chest on “All to Myself” and “Show of Hands.” But some fans feel that J. Cole is also hopping on the Drake hate train with his out-of-nowhere feature on WE STILL DON’T TRUST YOU.

He appears on the the last track from the first disc called “Red Leather.” On it, Cole further addresses the creation of “7 Minute Drill,” as well as his apology. “My energy was never on some toughest n**** s*** / I was just a conscious rapper that would f*** a n**** b****.” So, there were no shots fired at Drake on this cut. But the mere fact that he would go onto Drake supposed enemies’ record is why the community sees this as a form of betrayal rather than an exciting opportunity for Cole.

Fans’ Hilarious Memes For J. Cole Appearing On WE STILL DON’T TRUST YOU

Twitter users have become comedians since this all animosity toward Drizzy started about three weeks ago and today has been no different. HipHopDX found some incredibly funny memes and tweets surrounding Cole changing up on The Boy. Things have also seemingly been awkward for the “First Person Shooter” collaborators ever since the apology. There were some rumblings that Drake was going to perform at Dreamville Fest earlier this month. But according to a recent episode of Rory & Mal, the latter of the co-hosts asked Drake if he would be going, and the response was anything but confident. “‘I don’t know, should I? ‘Cause it’s weird right now. Are we performing the record? Can we ever perform ‘First Person Shooter’?’”

What are your thoughts on J. Cole “switching up on Drake” for being a feature on Metro Boomin and Future’s WE STILL DON’T TRUST YOU? Do you think Drake will respond negatively or indifferently to this, why or why not? Outside of the “controversy” are you enjoying “Red Leather?” We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section.

Offset Claps Back At Influencer Who Claims He’s a Takeoff Lookalike

April 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

These days, people are looking for any possible avenue to achieve success online. That frequently dips into some questionable or outright disrespectful territory. That debate was sparked once again after Offset replied to a social media influencer who claims that he looks just like Takeoff. It’s been more than a year and a half since Take was tragically murdered in 2022. That’s why one particular clip where the influencer in question claims people think they’ve seen the rapper’s ghost when he walks by rubbed some people the wrong way.

One person who wasn’t cool with his impression was Offset. The former-Migos rapper pulled up in the comments of his post to express his disapproval. “No you don’t twin sh*t not funny” his comment reads, implying the man doesn’t actually look like Takeoff. He does defend himself in a reply to the rapper. “No offense but I think I do and so do others but why can’t we turn something negative into something positive? long live takeoff” his response reads. Check out the videos of his Takeoff impression below.

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

In the comments, fans understand where Offset is coming from, but disagree about the influencer not looking like Takeoff. “I Think It Hurt More Cuz Bro Actually Do Look Like Take” one comment reads. “I think he just don’t find it funny which is understandable. But he does look like him though” another agrees.

Last month, we got an update on the lawsuit that spawned from Takeoff’s murder. The owner of the venue where he was killed blamed various patrons including Quavo and the shooting suspect himself of inciting the violence that resulted in Takeoff’s death. Quavo has continued fighting against gun violence in honor of Take in the time since his death. What do you think of Offset’s response to a man who claims to look just like Takeoff? Do you think the influencer actually looks like the late rapper? Let us know in the comment section below.

NBA YoungBoy Blasts Finesse2tymes For Sliding Into His Wife’s DMs: Watch

April 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

NBA YoungBoy and Finesse2tymes have been going at it this week, and unfortunately, it looks like their feud is only heating up. On Wednesday (April 10), YB hopped online to share a suggestive photo of Finesse’s girlfriend FNG Shugga, prompting the Memphis-born performer to respond. He seemed surprisingly open to giving YB a chance to FaceTime Shugga in exchange for $250K, but quickly walked back his offer.

“I was trolling, Ion play bout shugga her loyalty worth more than money, if only ya’ll know what we done been through in the short period of time,” he explained on his Instagram Story. “The feds got me all through shug paperwork, they tryna get her to fold on me REAL BAD but she won’t do it, that’s why she on that monitor.” Finesse2tymes went on to refer to YB as “throwed off mentally,” and to describe his time on house arrest as being in a “luxury cell.”

NBA YoungBoy Goes Off On Finesse2tymes

Evidently, YB didn’t appreciate his comments and responded with a heated rant, accusing Finesse of sliding into his wife’s DMs. “You sound like a b*tch who I kicked out, n***a. I ain’t tryna hear none of that mental health sh*t, boy,” he said. “You know how that sh*t turn out, you p*ssy a** n***a.” He didn’t stop there, however. YB continued, taking various shots at the rapper’s appearance, persona, and more.

“You wrote my h*e. I ain’t tell your botched a** nothing when you played with my h*e, n***a. I just posted your b*tch! Then you doubled back and played with my wife,” he claimed. “She ain’t that b*tch that you fake pimping, n***a. I don’t want to talk, I ain’t your friend. I ain’t none of that, you p*ssy b*tch.”

Finesse2tymes Says He Wants “No Problems”

Finesse2tymes later made it clear that he wasn’t looking for any smoke, arguing that “Real gangstas don’t go to war ’bout women.” What do you think of NBA YoungBoy and Finesse2tymes’ beef? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Future Adds To Rumors Of A Drake Beef By Dropping The Original Version Of “Feel No Ways”

April 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Last month, Future and Metro Boomin set the rap world on fire with their album WE DON’T TRUST YOU. The record was packed with high-profile features from artists like Travis Scott, Playboi Carti, The Weeknd, Rick Ross, and most notably Kendrick Lamar. On the smash hit “Like That,” Kendrick contributes a verse where he takes shots at J. Cole and Drake. That’s compelled the song to back-to-back weeks on top of the Hot 100 with a chance to stay at the top spot even further.

Now the pair have followed up their attention-grabbing project with an even more robust follow-up. WE STILL DON’T TRUST YOU dropped overnight and gave fans plenty of new material to chew over. Features from artists like J. Cole and A$AP Rocky have already been making waves online. But one of the most talked about tracks is a song that’s nearly a decade old. “This Sunday” is a track that first leaked all the way back in 2015 but made its way onto this album in 2024. It grabbed fans’ attention because it features an early version of what would eventually become the chorus to Drake’s song “Feel No Ways.” It’s a pretty direct hint from Future that all may not be well between the pair of former collaborators. Listen to the official release of the song below.

Future Drops OG “Feel No Ways” On His New Album

In a new guest feature from WE DON’T TRUST YOU, J. Cole appears to share some feelings about his recent Kendrick Lamar diss. While it’s unclear if that’s actually what he’s writing about or if the verse was recorded before last weekend’s events it seems to fit perfectly. Cole used his Dreamville festival over the weekend as an opportunity to take back his Kendrick response and apologize.

What do you think of Future dropping the original version of “Feel No Ways” on his new album with Metro Boomin? Do you think it’s a sign that the pair might be beefing? Let us know in the comment section below.
