Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign Reportedly Cancel “Vultures 2” Listening Event In Taiwan

by

Last month, Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign announced plans to celebrate the latest installment of their Vultures trilogy with a listening party in Taiwan. The event was scheduled for August 25, though it now appears to have been called off. Taiwan News, Mirror Media, and various Ye fan accounts have reported the apparent cancellation.

“[I]t was reported that the organizer informed the manufacturers that ‘the event is cancelled,’ but no official cancellation announcement has been made yet,” Mirror Media reports. At the time of writing, the ticketing site does not list the event as canceled. Ye and Ty Dolla Sign have also yet to update fans on the status of the listening party. Their other listening event in Korea, which is planned for August 23, seems to be proceeding as expected.

Fans Are Disappointed About Ye & Ty’s Apparent Cancelation

For now, it remains unclear whether or not the Taiwan listening party will actually take place. It’s also unknown why it might have been canceled. Ye’s been making plenty of headlines lately for everything from his relationship with Bianca Censori to Adidas’ class action lawsuit against him, which could potentially have something to do with it.

This month, rumors that the Chicago MC is addicted to nitrous oxide have also been floating around, thanks to his former Chief of Staff Milo Yiannopoulos. Yiannopoulos alleges that Ye’s been getting concerning amounts of the gas from his dentist, Thomas P. Connelly. Connelly denies this, though a worrisome text message exchange surfaced online last week, which appears to suggest otherwise. These rumors are also unconfirmed. What do you think of Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign reportedly canceling their upcoming Vultures 2 listening event in Taiwan? Are you surprised or not? Do you think fans will be disappointed if the news turns out to be true? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Big Sean Accused Of Biting Baby Keem But OG Fans Know The Truth

by

Big Sean is currently causing a debate indirectly with his recent single, “Yes”. According to Billboard, the second teaser track to the upcoming album Better Me Than You got its music video yesterday afternoon. Apparently, some Baby Keem fans caught wind of the Big Sean visuals and got to listening and watching. After presumably dissecting it intently, they are coming to the conclusion that the Detroit MC is biting heavily off the pgLang signee’s rap style. They aren’t exactly pointing to what aspects Sean is pulling from. However, we are assuming it has something to do with the zany and high-pitch bits he sprinkles into his delivery.

Outside of that, we feel this is pretty original Sean. We are definitely getting some Dark Sky Paradise vibes, especially with the black and white visuals for this track in particular. Additionally, we can hear the song “Paradise” all day long. Listen to those two songs back to back and tell us what you think.

Nicki Minaj Unfollows Ice Spice & JT Amid Beef Rumors

by

Nicki Minaj is certainly no stranger to beefing with other artists, but now, some think she’s even cut off some of her former friends. Earlier today, social media users noticed that she unfollowed both Ice Spice and JT on Instagram. For those who don’t recall, she teamed up with Ice Spice for not one but two tracks last year, “Princess Diana” and “Barbie World.”

In May, Ice Spice’s former friend leaked a few of her text messages, in which she described Nicki as “ungrateful and delusional.” Nicki has yet to address this debacle, though Ice Spice did in her Rolling Stone interview last month. “We don’t have the closest relationship, you know? But we’re definitely good,” she said at the time, explaining that she only sent the texts out of frustration.

Nicki Minaj Sparks Speculation With Latest Instagram Activity

As for JT, Nicki had a history with the City Girls but appeared to squash the beef for good a few years ago. The “FTCU” rapper even brought JT out for her Pink Friday 2 world tour stop in Boston in April. It appeared as though all was well between the two of them until last month when some social media users think she shaded JT during a Stationhead rant. This is unconfirmed, though Nicki’s latest Instagram activity appears to back this theory up.

Of course, all of this is still pure speculation, and it’s also possible that Nicki’s unfollows didn’t mean anything at all. The Barbz aren’t convinced, however, and think there must be tea brewing under the surface. Only time will tell whether or not Nicki meant this as a statement, or if she’ll ever address it publicly. What do you think of Nicki Minaj unfollowing both Ice Spice and JT on Instagram? Why do you think she did this? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Dame Dash Trolls JAY-Z Over His “Deep” Pockets Amid Roc-A-Fella Records Drama

by

Dame Dash went after JAY-Z during a rant on his Instagram page on Tuesday, after his Roc-A-Fella co-founder filed a notice that the rights to his 1996 album Reasonable Doubt will switch from the company to his possession in 2031. Dame has been attempting to sell his stake in Roc-A-Fella shares to cover a judgment regarding copyright infringement and defamation owed to movie producer Josh Weber.

“I don’t expect anyone, just some average person, to come buy it — or a third of it, my third. I don’t wanna get sued again,” he said. “I know, for some reason, nobody wants me to sell it, but I’m ready to just move on, do my thing. I had a lawsuit, I had a judgement, and I’m like, ‘Yo, that’s 800 grand. Go get it from over there. They not paying me neither!’ So, they went and did the work for me [to] paid that debt and I’ll be able to sell it. It all worked out for me. I’m sure there’s a little twist they put on things. I don’t know why. I do know why, but I don’t know why. I don’t know why about one thing, but I do know why about the other.”

From there, he set his sights on JAY-Z. “They had some bum-ass board meeting and all of a sudden he gets first right of refusal. I don’t really care. It don’t slow nothing down for me,” he said. “Now I don’t know how deep homie’s pockets is. I’m curious if he’s gonna match that. I put an offer on the table, lemme see if he’ll match it. But it was from other people.” The auction is scheduled for August 29.
