NBA YoungBoy Moves His Federal Gun Case To Another State For Sentencing

August 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

NBA YoungBoy just got some massive updates in his federal gun case, and it looks like he’s trying to control as much as he can about it. Moreover, reports emerged this week that he reportedly pleaded guilty to the federal indictment on August 14, and he successfully moved his case from Baton Rouge to Utah for sentencing. “I, defendant, have been informed that a Felony Indictment is pending against me in the above designated case,” the alleged court documents read. “I wish to plead guilty to the offense charged, to consent to the disposition of the case in the District of Utah in which I am present, and to waive trial in the above captioned District.”

Furthermore, YoungBoy previously attempted to postpone the case. “After Rahimi, it is still an open question whether Congress can simply prohibit all convicted felons, regardless of the nature of the felony, from possessing a firearm. Or whether such prohibitions can [apply] without individualized findings that a particular defendant presents a credible threat to the safety of others. And finally, it is an open question whether such prohibitions may be permanent,” his lawyer Drew Fielding posited.

As you may already know, YoungBoy’s trial process turned out to be a pretty chaotic one, as fans Zoom-bombed the proceedings. Not only that, but they interrupted the judge multiple times by proclaiming “Free YB” and telling the judge to “shut up.” The rabid nature of the Never Broke Again fanbase became a popular Internet meme, one that remains very hard to ignore or dismiss thanks to recent situations like these. We can only wonder how they will react to this guilty plea, and to the case moving back to Utah for their fav to receive his sentence.

Meanwhile, other rap figures think that YoungBoy will be just fine. Tony Yayo thinks that he has too much money to worry about prison time, and that this shouldn’t concern him much. Regardless of your thoughts on that, the Baton Rouge spitter is certainly in a better position than most to handle life behind bars. Now, all that remains is to see what happens with the case.

North West Sparks Fan Concern After Hanging Out With Streamer Tylil

August 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

North West is fresh off yet another feature thanks to VULTURES 2, and wants to hang out with celebrities just as much as her father Ye does. However, this resulted in some controversy when she linked up with popular streamer Tylil for some social media content. Moreover, many fans thought that this was an inappropriate meeting, or were instead concerned with the 11-year-old not hanging out with people that are her age. Still, other social media users pointed out that, not only was La La Anthony there to accompany her, but that North’s security team is probably more than enough to prevent any dangers.

Also, this came as a result of many people not being familiar with Tylil and making unfair assumptions about his character based on this out-of-context situation, which is not what we’re suggesting here. Elsewhere, though, North West also had plenty of fun at Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s recent VULTURES listening party, where we’re sure she saw plenty of famous faces. Sadly, this came at a time in which fans were more preoccupied with Ye’s alleged nitrous addiction. Hopefully we get some more heartening updates soon in that regard.

Nevertheless, North West’s admiration of streamers is no shocker, as Kai Cenat attended her birthday party and responded to the resulting backlash. “Here’s the thing, first things first, bro,” he expressed to “everybody who made [the birthday party] weird.” “I am North’s favorite streamer bro, okay? So, yesterday, all she wanted to do was meet me, bro. That was it. Literally. So, anybody who’s making it weird, like, that’s the weirdest thing ever. We had a great time yesterday. She’s great, bro. She has a good group of friends around her, like, everything was great.”

Meanwhile, North West also popped out to witness Kendrick Lamar’s Juneteenth concert and, to no one’s surprise, had a blast. As such, it’s no surprise that she continues to link up with a lot of people and is always excited about doing so. Fans are reasonably skeptical of many of these interactions, but they would much rather be safe than sorry. Let’s just make sure the conversation centers around prevention and not on falsely characterizing folks that find themselves in this situation.

Lil Durk Argues Gang Life Is Incompatible With His Muslim Faith

August 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Lil Durk argued you can’t be both gang-affiliated and Muslim while speaking on his faith in a statement on Instagram, over the weekend. The topic began with him sharing a selfie on Instagram with the caption: “Don’t label me nothing outside of A MAN A FATHER and A 1000% Muslim.” As fans questioned his intent with the statement, Durk took to his Instagram Story to elaborate.

“I don’t gabgbang I’m a Muslim,” he wrote. “Basically what I was saying on my post in so many words you can’t do both ima be the one who say it. So if you follow me as a brother a friend a icon follow me to my new chapter of life. When I make music I rap what I seen and been through not telling you to go do it HUGE difference the music won’t change but my life goals will.”

It’s not the first time Durk has spoken about his growth in recent years. Back in June, he discussed his past drug use and revealed he checked into rehab in a video shared by TMZ. “It was tough at first, but it ain’t that tough ’cause I really knew what I wanted. I knew what was holding me back,” Durk explained at the time. “I wanted better. I want to be a better man, a better father, a better leader. My main goal is peace, being with the family and staying out of bullsh*t. I just see myself staying on the right track and trying to change a lot of lives.”

Drake Pops Out For “Supersoak” Music Video In New Preview From DJ Akademiks

August 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Well, it looks like DJ Akademiks was quickly able to prove his claim that Drake has a music video coming very soon. Moreover, he recently shared a short preview of the visuals for the unreleased (and leaked) Lil Yachty collab “Supersoak” music video on his livestream. The clip doesn’t really show much, just the 6ix God rocking his braids and vibing out to the track with a friend. Either way, it gives OVO and Concrete fans hope that the duo will officially drop this collaboration on streaming services after Yachty spoke of leaking it to Kai Cenat because they couldn’t get the sample cleared.

“It’ll be good for both of their brands,” Mr. Hotspot, the artist that Drake and Lil Yachty sampled for this cut, explained concerning his ultimatum that he’ll clear the sample if they make a clean and kid-friendly version of their song. “I’m blessed to work with children so we just gotta make it clean for them. We don’t need no children getting whooped cause they said this or that, you understand? It’s the children who really running these views up. So if we make sure both verses clean everybody coming clean, everybody gonna benefit.”

“I sent a song to Kai to leak,” Lil Yachty had said of this Drake collab. “We couldn’t get the sample. So I just let Kai play it. It’s everywhere. [Mr. Hotspot] went down, like, a Christian path. I don’t even think we got into money. He was just like, ‘No.’ It was crazy.” Maybe this new music video means that the “Another Late Night” duo successfully worked something out with Mr. Hotspot to put the song out officially, but we can’t know for sure until it drops.

Meanwhile, “Supersoak” also prompted Soulja Boy to call Drake out for what he perceived as a diss against him. “Drake, you up here talkin’ about some S.O.D. super soak,” he expressed on social media. “Boy, stop playin with me, boy. That better be a f***ing shout out, n***a. You better keep that s**t light, my boy. This your first and only warning. This not gon’ be the best idea for you, family.”

Diddy’s Alleged Victim Files Police Report In Miami

August 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Adria English, who recently accused Diddy of sex-trafficking her at his White Parties, has filed a report with police in Miami, according to a new report from TMZ. The outlet says she spoke with authorities about numerous allegations dating back to the early 2000s. She had previously made the claims in a civil lawsuit against the Bad Boy mogul, last month.

Law enforcement sources for TMZ confirmed the filing of the report, but say there’s not enough evidence to spark a full investigation. English’s attorney, Ariel Mitchell, told the outlet that she still remains cautiously optimistic about the process and plans to file another report in New York City once she can travel up in person.

English previously claimed she took a gig as a go-go dancer at Diddy’s infamous White Parties in an effort to help her boyfriend land a modeling job for Sean John. Diddy had allegedly pressured the man to perform oral sex on him to earn the spot, but the boyfriend refused. In her lawsuit, English accuses Diddy of supplying her with alcohol laced with Ecstasy and forcing her to have sex with his associates. English is also suing Tamiko Thomas, who she likened to Jeffrey Epstein’s wife, Ghislaine Maxwell. She cited several damages in the lawsuit including emotional trauma, intimacy issues, painful memories, and more.

Diddy has consistently denied all of the allegations against him over the last year. The wave of claims began when Cassie sued him with accusations of sexual abuse back in November 2023. Be on the lookout for further updates on Diddy on HotNewHipHop.

Remy Ma Almost Fell For A Nicki Minaj Reference On “Family Feud”

August 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Remy Ma and Nicki Minaj’s beef is well-documented at this point, and while things died down a while ago, it’s still hard to ignore. Moreover, the former recently participated on Family Feud, and a particular fill-in-the-blank question led to a pretty interesting reaction. The prompt was “[Blank] Friday,” which led many eagle-eyed fans to spot the Bronx femcee’s small laugh when she heard the prompt. A lot of fans figured that she thought of Minaj’s album Pink Friday first, but she instead gave “Black Friday” as an answer. While we’ll probably never know whether or not Steve Harvey chose to be cheeky with this, fans ran with that narrative regardless.

Furthermore, the last “update” we got concerning Remy Ma and Nicki Minaj were some odd claims from Hazel-E. She claimed that Remy, the Migos, Suge Knight, and many others actually received payment to sabotage Nicki’s career. Of course, rumors like these are pretty frequent and common when it comes to the discussion around these two female rappers and many others. Even though we’ll probably never see evidence of this, some fanbases will still use it as a talking point either way.

However, despite Remy Ma and Nicki Minaj’s long and contentious history, some fans still think that they can bury the hatchet. In fact, the latter seemed to hint at a reconciliation while promoting Pink Friday 2, but that never manifested for that album’s rollout. Still, with so much beef going around in 2024, it seems as good a time as ever to either re-engage or reconsider. After all, this combative year could also result in more amicable moments of coming together rather than continued battle.

Meanwhile, Remy Ma doesn’t really want to talk about any of this beef, for the most part. For example, she avoided a question about Nicki Minaj and Latto beefing at the 2023 Grammys. Maybe Remy would rather speak on her own experiences with femcees rather than other ones. Regardless of whether or not these two eventually make up and set their issues aside, it’s impossible to not think of their spat whenever their names come up together.
