YG Leads Peace Walk With Rival Gang Members

by

YG organized a peace walk with rival gang members in his hometown of Compton on Sunday in an effort to promote peace and unity. Members of the Treetop Pirus and Fruit Town Pirus, who have been feuding for years, were both in attendance. The Game also showed up to support the Just Re’d Up 3 rapper.

“We came together. My hood and the Fruit Town Pirus across the street, we’ve been at war for, like, the last 10 years. We just enemies. So I felt like we all needed to come together and walk down our main street,” he told TMZ. “We all from Piru so we don’t really need to be beefing with each other. We’ve been doing that sh*t for years so it’s time to like… if we can clean it, clean it up. There’s been a lot of conversations about that sh*t so I put some energy towards it and we got it right.” He concluded: “It’s successful. All love and positive. We outside.” Together, the group stopped by Tam’s Burgers for a meal.

YG’s peace walk isn’t the first effort to promote unity this year. Back in June, Kendrick Lamar hosted The Pop Out – Ken & Friends with a similar goal in mind. “Aye, we ain’t never had this. We put this sh*t all together for motherf*ckin’ peace,” he said on stage at the event. “This sh*t is making me emotional, man. We’ve been f*cked up since Nipsey died. We’ve been f*cked up since Kobe died. Let the world see this. You ain’t seen this many sections on one stage keeping it together and having peace.” He brought out members of several rival gangs.

Killer Mike Reveals His Feelings Toward Travis Scott & His Fans

by

Even after six months after the 2024 GRAMMYs, Travis Scott and Killer Mike fans are still going at each other’s necks. Of course, it has to do with the fact that one half of Run The Jewels took home Best Rap Album over UTOPIA. The Atlanta, Georgia native took home the award and multiple other categories thanks to his solo album in over a decade with MICHAEL. Many casual hip-hop fans (arguably a lot of La Flame fans) have been making jokes, saying things like “I still can’t name one Killer Mike song”. Others are straight furious due to how well Scott’s fourth album performed overall. While the “Scientists & Engineers” MC did diss the hitmaker on his recent record, neither artist has really addressed how they feel about one another publicly.

That is until just a little bit ago when Killer Mike spoke to Complex about all of this commotion and the hate he’s received. In summary, the veteran doesn’t really have any ill will toward Scott. In fact, “As an artist, I deeply have reverence for Travis Scott, he’s amazing”, Mike explained. But in that same breath, “I’m never going to think anybody deserves anything in front of me, especially when I put in my best”, he added.

Killer Mike Messes With Travis Scott, But…

Ultimately, artists are going to get criticized regardless of how great they think their own material is. Mike recognizes that, especially when it comes to this recent GRAMMY debate. “But a lot of [Scott’s] fans, they don’t like Mike now. And I have to accept that, that’s fine”. Mike essentially feels confident enough in his craft and notes how more emotionally resonant it is. “I listen to Travis and I jam, but man, does the record hit you like shedding tears when she won’t let you see your child? When child support on your black a** for the mistakes you’ve made? That’s what my music does. It’s there for you. It’s the blues baby. So I’m there… to speak to the whole human being”.

What are your thoughts on Killer Mike responding to Travis Scott and his fans over the GRAMMY debate?Is it at least good to hear that he has love for Scott’s art, or is that not enough? Do you this finally ends the chatter between each fanbase? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

The-Dream Attempts To Get His Rape & Sex Trafficking Lawsuit Dismissed

by

The-Dream is attempting to get the rape and sex trafficking lawsuit he’s facing dismissed. He argues the rape accusation is not a separate civil cause of action under California law and that Contra Paris LLC should be removed with regard to the sex trafficking claim because the allegation does not meet the definition of the law in California where it requires a “commercial element.” It is also based out of Delaware. Chanaaz Mangroe made the accusations back in June.

“The Complaint is a textbook example of a ‘shotgun pleading’ and must be dismissed in its entirety for failing to attribute specific factual allegations to each defendant,” The-Dream’s attorney, Desirée F. Moore, said in a statement. “Plaintiff’s Complaint contains dozens of allegations that are utterly irrelevant to her sexual battery and sex trafficking claims and are, instead, designed solely to smear Diamant’s name and reputation.” In total, he wants 300 paragraphs removed for being “irrelevant.” He also argued Mangroe only filed the lawsuit for “financial gain.”

Mangroe’s legal team wasn’t fazed by The-Dream’s motion. “The-Dream’s arguments seeking to dismiss Plaintiff’s allegations are wholly unpersuasive. We look forward to opposing the motions and proceeding to discovery in this case,” they wrote. In Mangroe’s initial filing, she accused him of keeping her in “an abusive, violent, and manipulative relationship filled with physical assaults, violent sexual encounters, and horrific psychological manipulation.” He allegedly promised to promote her and her career.

Shortly after the filing, The-Dream addressed the claims in a statement. “These claims are untrue and defamatory,” he wrote at the time. “I oppose all forms of harassment and have always strived to help people realize their career goals. As someone committed to making a positive impact on my fellow artists and the world at large, I am deeply offended and saddened by these accusations.” Be on the lookout for further updates on The-Dream on HotNewHipHop.

Bianca Censori Leaves Little To The Imagination With Skin-Tight Nude Outfit During Family Shopping Spree

by

Bianca Censori doesn’t need Kanye West to draw attention to herself. Although had she not met the divisive rapper, she may never have dressed like this to begin with. Regardless, the Australian architect is back at it again with another spicy OOTD (outfit of the day). According to TMZ, their paparazzi spotted her out in public with her mother, Alexandra, as well as her two sisters, Angelina and Alyssia. Over this weekend the female quartet was out on a family shopping spree on the famous Melrose Avenue.

While her get-up is still sure to turn heads, it’s not nearly as publicly offensive as previous efforts. Being with her matriarch and siblings probably helped matters, but nonetheless, she’s taking baby steps. Here, Bianca opts for an illusion of sorts. At a glance, it appears as if she’s entirely naked. However, she does in fact have clothes on, those being a beige-colored crop top and matching tights with darker brown heels.

As for the hairdo, Censori kept things equally casual, wearing it slicked back and in a messier bun. As for the rest of her bloodline, her mother, Alexandra, wore bright and stunning blue dress that hugs the body in all the right places. Her sisters Alyssia and Angelina matched with long black dresses with differing styles. One displayed curves while the other was more flowy and modest.

What are your thoughts on Bianca Censori covering up more around the family? Do you see her continuing to dress more lady-like, why or why not? Are you fed up with how often her outfits are covered online? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Mariah Carey Has Allegedly Taken “A Lot Of Pleasure” In Jennifer Lopez’s Recent Woes

by

Mariah Carey is allegedly taking pleasure in the recent drama in Jennifer Lopez’s life after the singer had to cancel her tour and has been dealing with issues in her marriage to Ben Affleck. According to a source for In Touch, Lopez’s struggles have been icing on the cake after Carey landed a residency at Dolby Live inside the Park MGM Hotel.

“Mariah is really excited to be getting back to Vegas and looking forward to proving she’s still at the top of the game when it comes to putting on a show and bringing in ticket sales,” the source told the news outlet. “She’s extra excited to show that she’s still got it after J. Lo had to go and cancel her concert tour.” They added that Carey has been monitoring the drama “very closely and took a lot of pleasure in seeing her fall on her face. She believes it’s karma biting her in the butt because she’s not as talented as she thinks and way too arrogant.”

The latest news comes after Page Six recently reported that Lopez is furious about the rumors regarding her and her husband. “She’s furious,” the insider told the outlet. “He has humiliated her. He was the one who initiated getting back together. He’s humiliated her because she made a big deal that he’s the love of her life. They just had two weddings two years ago. This is some kind of a record—they’re not young kids.”

Carey has been feuding with Lopez since the 1990s when she collaborated with her ex, Tommy Mottola. Be on the lookout for further updates on Mariah Carey and Jennifer Lopez on HotNewHipHop.

The Weeknd Reschedules Postponed “After Hours” Tour Dates

by

The Weeknd is heading back to The Land Down Under in just a couple of months, according to AllHipHop. Abel Tesfaye went on quite the historic tour last year celebrating his last two albums After Hours (2020) and Dawn FM (2022). The After Hours Til Dawn Tour became a global event, however a couple of stops were canceled due to “schedule and logistical constraints”. From November through December of 2023, The Weeknd was going to be closing things out in Australia and New Zealand. Because of this pretty vague reason for shutting the fans out, the Canadian superstar felt it wasn’t right to leave them hanging.

So, earlier today, The Weeknd shared this exciting update via Instagram. “AUSTRALIA, I didn’t forget about you 🖤 See you in October. Ticket presale Aug 22. 🇦🇺 LINK IN BIO”. Yes, he is returning for a short time, four days to be exact starting October 5 in Melbourne, Australia at Marvel Stadium. Additionally, he will be there on the 6. Then, after about two weeks, the “After Hours” hitmaker will then hop on a flight to Sydney for shows on the 22 and 23 at Accor Stadium.

Sadly, residents of Brisbane and Auckland, New Zealand are going to be missing out this time around. Originally, the After Hours Til Dawn Tour stops were two nights in Brisbane and two in Auckland. While fans of those respective areas were upset, the fact that The Weeknd is doing this to begin with shows how much he cares about his supporters. He said it himself in a statement, “I want to make sure you all know I hadn’t forgotten about you. When I return now, it will be the right time, and I promise it will be such a special experience. I can’t wait to see you all!”.

What are your thoughts on The Weekend heading back to Australia after previously canceling After Hours Til Dawn dates? Are you surprised he dropped the original Brisbane and Auckland stops? How do you feel about him returning after all this time later? When do you foresee him dropping new music? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.
