September 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Yungeen Ace’s addition to a concert lineup featuring Gucci Mane, Plies, Yung Miami, and Rob49 allegedly caused Tampa Police to shut down the event. According to No Jumper, the venue was concerned about providing security considering Ace’s alleged gang affiliations. The outlet shared an alleged email explaining the decision on Instagram on Sunday. The concert was scheduled for Friday, September 20.

“You may know that Julio Foolio was murdered right up the street from us and we’ve been made aware that Ace is rumored to have gang ties to the group that was involved with the shooting (Gangs ATK and KTA),” it reads. “We’re concerned about security around the venue and in the area seeing how recent this all happened. There’s also a duty we have to USF to make their police aware of the information if Ace is indeed coming.”

In the wake of Foolio’s death, Ace has made several conflicting headlines regarding the situation. In a snippet of a track remixing Cash Cobain’s hit song, “Problem,” he appeared to diss both him and his mother, rapping: “They mad at me that n***a died that’s not my [problem], I’m getting rich off the dead like that’s my [problem]. Can’t trust nobody but my choppa that’s my [problem]. Lil’ n***a died, got caught in traffic that’s my [problem],” as well as, “When this b**ch got hit with the stick that wasn’t my [problem]. When his mom got hit with that sh*t that wasn’t my [problem].”

This is just what everybody sees right now. Renewal, rebirth: that is the whole concept of this [album].

Pusha T Seemingly Shades Drake With Response To Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl Announcement

September 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Pusha T showed love to Kendrick Lamar on his Instagram Story on Sunday after the NFL announced that the rapper will be performing at the Super Bowl Halftime Show. In doing so, he shared a quote from Lamar’s announcement in which he seemingly dissed Drake. “You know it’s only one opportunity to win a championship — no round twos,” Lamar said. Drake recently teased being ready for a “Game 2” on his Instagram page.

While sharing Lamar’s remark, Pusha wrote: “This is true…” with a shrugging emoji. Pusha notably feuded with Drake as well back in 2018 with the release of “The Story of Adidon.” Lamar actually referenced that feud in his diss track, “Euphoria.” He rapped: “I don’t like you poppin’ s**t at Pharrell, for him, I inherit the beef/ Yeah, f**k all that pushin’ P, let me see you push a T/ You better off spinnin’ again on him, you think about pushin’ me?/ He’s Terrence Thornton, I’m Terence Crawford, yeah, I’m whoopin’ feet.”

It’s unclear whether Lamar will bring anyone else out for his performance, although Master P recently suggested that New Orleans legend Lil Wayne should make an appearance. Following his set at The Pop Out – Ken & Friends show in Los Angeles, Lamar already performed several of his Drake diss tracks live, including “Not Like Us,” “Euphoria,” and more.

Laila! & Queen Naija Take The Reins On Our New “R&B Season” Playlist Update: Stream

September 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Welcome to autumn, where the influx of new R&B-related tracks isn’t slowing down. Moreover, we’ve got our latest R&B Season playlist update here to round up the best of the best around the genre that came out this week. This time around, we wanted to first shout out the new Laila! album, Gap Year! It’s a 17-track of some really funky and lush bedroom pop mixed with R&B-style vocal melodies, infectious basslines, airy deliveries, and a lot of fun-loving charisma. As one of the rising stars within the game this year, she’s displaying her versatile talents even more here thanks to excellent cuts such as “Want 2.”

On a more classic R&B tip, we have the new Queen Naija single “Good Girls Finish Last.” It’s another example of acoustic guitar balladry, but the earthy percussion pattern does a lot to separate it from the more sad and down-trodden style associated with that archetype. Some harmonious backing vocals and a tight lovelorn narrative also help to center this track into more of its own identity. If you’re looking for some tender jams this week to soothe you, then this should be right up your alley.

HNHH R&B Season Playlist: Stream

Another project we wanted to highlight on this R&B Season update is RINI’s new seven-tracker, Lucky 7. Its sonic character is mostly built around dreamy guitar tones, softly buzzing bass, crips drums, and an overall atmospheric approach to indie and R&B fusions. One particular standout is “Far Away,” whose chime embellishments and measured vocal approach closes the project out quite well. But don’t let that fool you: the rest is just as worth it.

Finally, we’d be remiss not to mention the genre-fusing full-length from Fred again.., ten days. While not all of it takes influence from R&B, as it’s mostly an electronic experience, “fear less” with Sampha is among its most interesting and well-developed experiments. Let us know what your favorite R&B Season inclusion was this week, as well as what else we missed, down in the comments section below. As always, stick around on HNHH for the latest music drops around the clock.
