Morgan Wallen Arrested After Throwing Chair Off Bar Roof: Details

April 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Morgan Wallen found himself in a predicament on Sunday night. According to Billboard, the controversial country singer was at Eric Church’s Chief’s Bar in Nashville, where he was getting a bit unruly. As the story goes, he allegedly chucked a chair off a roof, which was six stories tall. Wallen found himself in trouble as there were two officers standing outside of the bar on the street below. The chair almost hit them, and they immediately sprung into action. Witnesses then made it crystal clear that Wallen was the one responsible.

These misdeeds got him “three felony counts of reckless endangerment and one misdemeanor count of disorderly conduct,” as per Billboard. Although Wallen was ultimately arrested around 11 PM, he was released on $15,250 bond just a few hours later. Wallen’s attorney subsequently put out a statement. “At 10:53p Sunday evening Morgan Wallen was arrested in downtown Nashville for reckless endangerment and disorderly conduct. He is cooperating fully with authorities,” it read.

Overall, this is a pretty bad look for the singer. However, it is one of those drunken incidents that happen at bars all of the time. Moving forward, Wallen will just have to be careful. After all, he is one of the biggest artists in his genre, and he has already dealt with some pretty big controversies in the past. Only time will tell whether or not he will be able to shake this one off.

Young Buck Bankruptcy: Nashville Native Denies Owing 50 Cent $250K

March 6, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Young Buck has been facing financial struggles head-on for over a decade now, but he and his legal team are putting up a fight when it comes to paying Curtis Jackson back an alleged $250K advance from G-Unit. According to documents exclusively obtained by AllHipHop, this conflict between 50 Cent and Buck goes back to July 2014, with the former alleging that the latter’s failure to complete his contract with the East Coast label means he owes hundreds of thousands of dollars. Meanwhile, the Nashville native claims the money was never classified as a loan, and therefore, he’s not worried about returning it.

“They argue that any money Buck received would have been before the contract’s signing and should be considered an advance rather than a debt,” the outlet says of the 42-year-old’s lawyers. Attorney Jonathan Augusta also notes that “the contract lacks any provision requiring Buck to repay these funds, thereby challenging the basis of G-Unit Records’ claim.” Overall, Buck’s legal team is seeking to have the case dismissed.

Young Buck and 50 Cent Remain at Odds

It’s worth noting that this isn’t Buck’s first time filing bankruptcy. That was back in 2010 when his debts to Fif, the IRS, his co-parent, and other poor spending habits caught up to him. The second instance was a decade later, focusing on “restructuring his debts under Chapter 13 bankruptcy protection” following a bumpy 2019 with jail time and more money struggles arising. In part, this strategic move has been an attempt to challenge Jackson, and we’re eager to see what happens for both creatives when all is said and done.

Even when he has numerous legal battles and a hectic work schedule to stay on top of, 50 Cent knows how to keep us laughing. As he continues to work on his exposé documentary about Sean “Diddy” Combs, the New York native isn’t tiptoeing as he loudly taunts the accused assailant and his alleged past transgressions.

Nashville Drake Fan Leaves Show $100K Richer After Finishing Chemotherapy: Video

February 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Drake and 21 Savage kept us on our toes through the autumn of 2023 on their It’s All a Blur tour. After wrapping that, the 6ix God announced his plans to take a brief hiatus from a busy few years of music, instead pouring energy into his physical and mental wellbeing. Unsurprisingly, those plans ultimately changed as he and J. Cole scheduled a run of performances this winter following the success of their “First Person Shooter” collaboration. So far things have been off to a strong start, and Drake even seems to be in the giving spirit long past the holiday season.

As you may recall, his last stint on the road saw the Toronto native handing out all kinds of prizes to concert patrons. At one performance, Drizzy was sure to reward an audience member who brought in a sign to brag about the hours she put in giving Brazillian waxes in order to afford her ticket. This time around, the Scorpion rapper is keeping things slightly more PG, instead giving back to a fan in Nashville who recently wrapped up one of the most traumatizing experiences of her life.

LadBible reports that Champagne Papi was on stage this past Wednesday (February 7) when he briefly paused his concert to shout out a 33-year-old woman named Lauren Schwallier. That same day, she spent five hours at Vanderbilt University Medical Centre, undergoing bone at CT scans. She was diagnosed with breast cancer in March 2022 and recently completed chemo before getting to see Drake live. After performing “God’s Plan” he took notice of her sign in the crowd with the exciting news. “I hope my manager doesn’t kill me ’cause I’ve never really done this much, but, listen, I want you to cash this in at the end of the night,” he declared. “We’re gonna give you $100,000.”

As with most things the father of one does, some of his recent tour outfits have been bringing in criticism from internet trolls. At this point in his career, haters rarely phase Drake, though he did take a moment to comment on this situation as only he can. Read what the Canadian had to say at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Drake Expertly Avoids Addressing Leaked Video By Misdirecting The Crowd At His Most Recent Show

February 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Drake remains one of the biggest artists in the entire world. Overall, he continues to sell out arenas, while also going multiple times platinum. In fact, he is currently on tour with J. Cole on the “It’s All A Blur – Big As The What?” tour. Although he just toured last year, he is back on the road where he has performed his biggest songs for his biggest supporters. It has been a fun time so far, and every now and then, there are clips from the shows that go viral.

For instance, there is a new clip making the rounds on Twitter this morning. In the video, Drake addresses the crowd and has a heart-to-heart with them. This is something he does at all of his shows, and it has always gotten a positive reception. This week, however, fans have been waiting for him to address one controversy, in particular. For the purposes of decorum, we will not be explaining what that controversy is. Although, Drizzy did a good job of misdirecting his audience into thinking he would talk about why he became a trending topic Tuesday.

Drake Speaks To His Crowd

Drake begins his speech by saying that he wanted to speak about some rumors and how they are “true.” Except that rumor is not what you were thinking. Instead, the rumor was that his father really was in attendance at his Nashville show. Of course, Dennis Graham is from Tennessee, so it made sense for him to be there. Fans all thought it was pretty hilarious as Drake’s opening remarks made them think he was going to go somewhere else. It was a classic case of misdirection that goes to show Drizzy is still keeping his sense of humor about this.

Let us know what you thought of his response, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will continue to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists and their upcoming releases.

Kid Rock Drinks Bud Light, Fans Claim It’s A Conspiracy

August 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Kid Rock rocketed himself back into the national spotlight this year as he became the face of the boycott against Bud Light. Conservatives nationwide declared that they would no longer drink the Anheuser-Busch product after the company ran an ad campaign featuring transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney. The boycott, led by figures such as Rock, did make a noticeable impact on Anheuser-Busch sales, with the company reporting a 10% slump in second-quarter revenue. Rock’s reaction was particularly memorable, with the Michigan native filming himself shooting up a row of Bud Light cans.

Well, how things change. Multiple reports from August 17 place Kid Rock at a concert in Nashville drinking a can of Bud Light. Numerous photos show the ex-husband of Pamela Anderson holding onto the familiar tall blue can while wearing one of his signature hats. The concert in question was the Colt Ford show at the Skydeck.

Right-Wing Media Tries To Talk Their Way Out Of Kid Rock Pictures

While many people jokingly referred to Rock as a “hypocrite”, there was a very different reaction occurring amongst his right-wing compatriots. Those who politically align with Rock scrambled to his defence, stating that the pictures were fake and an intentional attack on Rock. “Actually he was drinking Coors Light can. This is a lie someone altered it,” one right-wing account claimed. Firstly, it’s very funny if he was drinking Coors given that the brand is a major sponsor of several LGBT initiatives. Meanwhile, other right-wingers are trying to claim that they “always suspected” that Rock was a secret liberal trying to be MAGA for the clout.

In short, the right wing is falling over themselves to try and explain the simple fact that Kid Rock, like many other right-wing figures, is a grifter. He told you what you wanted to hear so that you’d buy whatever he was selling to you. There is no conspiracy. No one is going out of their way to get Kid Rock canceled by his own team. He is, simply, a hypocrite who enjoys mediocre beer and country music concerts.

Young Buck Co-Signs Nashville G.O.A.T. Claims

April 13, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Young Buck has reacted to being called the G.O.A.T of Nashville rap. The 42-year-old has certainly enjoyed an incredible career. Indeed, he is the man who first put his city on the hip-hop map during his run with G-Unit. One of hip-hop’s biggest stars being from Nashville was a big deal at the time. Typically, the city is more associated with country music than as a hotbed of hip-hop. However, Buck has competition for the crown of Nashville’s greatest ever rapper. Jelly Roll has also staked his claim as the best rapper to come out the Tennessee capital.

Subsequently, a clip was recently shared by Ricky Robinson’s If You Alive Subscribe Show. In the clip, Robinson says that he respects Jelly Roll. However, he didn’t mince words in saying he believes Buck is the better rapper. “I know you think Jelly Roll can rap better than Buck, but he can’t,” Robinson flatly stated. “I love you, Jelly Roll, I respect you,” Robinson continued. “But Buck is the G.O.A.T. in Nashville! And I’ma stand on that. Tag Jelly Roll and tell him I said that.” Robinson would further elaborate on his position in the video’s caption. “I said what I said post no disrespect towards @jellyroll615 but it’s a no for me,” he said.

Additionally, Robinson argues that Buck is also better than fellow Nashville standout Starlito. “And by the way to my grind hard homies @starlitogrindhard can’t f**k with a picture of @buckshotz on No versus. let’s clear that up now,” he said. For his part, Buck took to the comments to seemingly agree with Robinson’s passionate assessment. Buck simply posted “#TalkYoTalk” Buck first achieved mainstream fame when he joined G-Unit in 2004.

Originally, the group had been founded by high school friends 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks, and Tony Yayo. Unfortunately, Yayo was incarcerated around the time the group began working on their second album. Subsequently, Buck was hand selected by 50 Cent to join the group after Yayo’s imprisonment. Buck would go on to achieve superstardom with the group. Additionally, it’s obvious that Buck’s city still loves him for the contributions he’s made.
