Kylie Jenner Earns $1M Within One Hour Of Khy Clothing Line Launch: Report

November 3, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Virtually every move the Kardashian-Jenner sisters make is highly scrutinized (and often criticized) by the public. Still, that hasn’t stopped any of the famous family’s five sisters from raking in serious dough thanks to their various business endeavours. The youngest, Kylie Jenner, is the latest to share a new creative project with her fans, taking a step away from her skincare and cosmetics companies to instead focus her energy on affordable luxury fashion in the form of her Khy clothing brand. Just weeks after soft launching online, the products officially went on sale this week, and according to PEOPLE it only took an hour for Jenner to secure a millionaire’s bag.

The outlet exclusively reported on Friday (November 3) that the mother of two sold out of offerings like the faux leather trench, Moto gloves, and minidress. All of the designs came from Jenner in tandem with Namilia, who’s based out of Berlin. However, ahead of Khy’s official debut, a creative named Betsy John put the reality starlet on blast for allegedly stealing the brand’s concepts from her.

Jenner has yet to address these allegations and instead is gearing up for Khy’s second collection to launch later this month. “I want people to know how completely involved I am in this,” she recently told Vogue of her project. “From original concept, to designing, or co-designing if we’re working with other designers, from picking fabrics, colours, I’ve been in every fit meeting. I am the creative director of the brand and marketing. There’s not an Instagram post or video that hasn’t been personally edited by me, there hasn’t been an Instagram post that I haven’t posted myself.”

Rumour has it that Kylie Jenner could have more than just her clothing line’s success to celebrate this weekend. Some social media sleuths are speculating that her eldest sibling, Kourtney Kardashian, has given birth to her first baby with Travis Barker after the socialite was at the hospital.

“MR. TAKE YA B*TCH” Goes No. 1 On TikTok Music Charts, Chrisean Rock & Lil Mabu Celebrate

October 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Chrisean Rock makes music, but since she first came into contact with Blueface, that’s the least of her fans’ concerns. People enjoy watching the 23-year-old due to her unpredictable and at times toxic nature, though they’ve notably grown weary of her antics lately. Her firstborn son is due to celebrate his two-month birthday in just a few days, and that’s not the only exciting thing Rock has to look forward to this week.

On Monday (October 30), both she and collaborator Lil Mabu shared the success of their Blueface diss track, “MR. TAKE YA B*TCH.” Though the Baltimore native has shared that she’s not making any money off of the joint effort, she’s still proud to see that it’s gone No. 1 on the TikTok Music Charts after previously sitting at No. 5. “You can’t fake the motion,” Chrisean declared on social media. It looks like YouTube users are loving the reality starlet’s latest single too, as Mabu pointed out that they’ve been trending No. 1 on that platform since blowing up.

“Been #1 for two weeks… I’m putting mfs in retirement #YGA ,” the 18-year-old bragged. It’s likely that Mabu was referring to Blue in his post, as the MILF Music founder has been trolling with some posts of his own about signing the drill rapper to his women’s only label. It’s unclear if he and Rock are cooking up another single to share with the world, but we’re certainly curious what the future holds for them both.

Besides shading Blueface in his celebratory tweet, this past weekend, Lil Mabu also taunted the 26-year-old by flashing his gun and trigger fingers in a video with Chrisean Rock. Because Blue is currently serving a 24-month suspended sentence for his 2022 strip club shooting, he’s expected to be on his best behaviour, meaning not getting too aggressive when firing back at his baby mama and Mabu.

Chrisean Rock & Jaidyn Alexis’ New Singles Both Top 10 On TikTok’s Music Chart

October 27, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Despite all the feuding that they do, Chrisean Rock and Jaidyn Alexis actually have quite a bit in common. What brings them together is obviously their shared connection with Blueface, and working with the California native to further their music careers has helped both women in their own way. Since giving birth to the baby boy she shares with him, Rock has been distancing herself from Blue, instead collaborating with her beau, Lil Mabu, on a song called “MR. TAKE YA B*TCH.”

The new arrival notably dissed the “Thotiana” rapper and was mostly penned by Chrisean’s man. While a war of words ensued on Twitter after that dropped, Alexis and Blue are focusing their energy almost entirely on furthering her as an artist thanks to the success of her “Barbie” single. They may not find commercial success, but on the TikTok Music Chart for Thursday (October 26), the Baltimore native nabbed the No. 5 spot while Jaidyn came just behind her at No. 6.

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

Both of Blue’s baby mamas have been subject to public ridicule since meeting him, but still, music lovers can’t help but weigh in on who has the better plan. “Jaidyn is a single, Chrisean is a feature,” one person pointed out in @theneighborhoodtalk’s comments. “It doesn’t hold the same weight.” Elsewhere, another user chimed in with, “Jaidyn has a good hook, that’s all. Chrisean got people singing her entire verse word for word.”

As Chrisean Rock and Jaidyn Alexis continue to do numbers on TikTok, the former is finally speaking out on the latter’s engagement to their baby daddy. According to the Baddies cast member (and other social media sleuths), Blueface only proposed to his MILF Music signee as a publicity stunt.

City Girls Blame Management And Timing For Poor Album Sales

October 27, 2023 by newhiphopnews

City Girls have been getting a lot of flack as of late. This is due to the fact that their new album RAW has been plagued by some poor album sales. Overall, fans aren’t loving the project like the duo may have expected. In its first week, the album is only expected to sell about 6K units. Although the group is pretty massive online and at festivals, these numbers are anything but a reflection of that. Furthermore, the low sales have led to plenty of jokes online.

On Thursday, the group was at The Breakfast Club where they talked about the new album and a myriad of other topics. JT touched on the album’s poor sales projections, noting they didn’t do enough promotion. “It’s tough times. You get what you put in, in this shit. And I feel like, collectively, we didn’t do what we had to do to promote the album,” JT explained. “But if you don’t go hard with promoting your shit, and putting it in people’s face, it’s like, of course it’s going to miss people.”

City Girls Give Their Take

Although she initially took responsibility, JT eventually changed course and blamed management for the lack of promotion. She also said timing played a big factor in all of this. “Right now, stunting ain’t cool, because people broke,” she added. “I feel like we have a bad timing thing. I feel like our timing, and our management, is poor. We’ve got poor management, poor timing — like, it’s really never no strategy. We just out here, like, why the fuck are we at The Breakfast Club a week after our thing dropped?”

Whatever the case may be, it is clear that the City Girls will need to go back to the drawing board. Let us know what you thought of the album, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the music world. We will always be sure to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists.

XXXTentacion’s “?” Album Becomes First Hip-Hop Album With 10 Billion Streams

October 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

XXXTentacion is an artist who still gets a lot of traction on streaming services. Although he only came out with a couple of projects during his prime, these albums made a big impact. He still gets millions of streams every single day. Moreover, on Spotify specifically, he has 36 million monthly listeners. For an artist who has since passed away, these are huge numbers. In fact, they don’t seem to be dwindling all that much. Instead, X continues to get the youth to listen despite his previous misdeeds.

One of his most popular albums is ?. The album title leaves a lot to be desired. However, this is a project that certainly made an impact when it was released. There were plenty of big singles throughout the tracklist. Additionally, there were various different sounds. XXXTentacion even gave us some reggaeton on this album, which was definitely a surprise when it happened. Now, the album has hit a new goal that just so happens to be a record for hip-hop.

XXXTentacion Is Still A Streaming Giant

According to HipHopAllDay, ? is now the first hip-hop project to reach 10 billion streams on Spotify. Overall, this is a truly incredible feat. It is hard to fathom this actually happening. It is also hard to fathom it happening to an album from five years ago. However, X has a lot of fans, and they continue to run up the numbers. It will be interesting to see what the next big streaming hip-hop album will be. Moreover, fans will certainly be looking to get this album to 15 billion and then subsequently, 20 billion streams.

Be sure to let us know what you think of this record, in the comments below? Did you think this album had that many fans? Also, what is your favorite song on the project? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will always be sure to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists.

Yung Miami Unbothered By “RAW” Album Sales Projections Critics

October 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The landscape of the industry has changed significantly in recent years, leaving many artists with lower first week sales numbers than ever previously seen in their careers. In particular, women working in music are having a difficult time keeping up with their male counterparts, and as a result, getting clowned online despite all their hard work and other achievements. We saw it happen to both Coi Leray and Chloe Bailey earlier this year. Now, it’s the City Girls whose critics are coming at them over their RAW sales. Regardless of what people like DJ Akademiks have to say, Yung Miami and JT don’t seem to be letting their projections get them down.

Earlier this week, we found out that the duo’s new arrival is set to move a total of 6K – 9K album equivalent units during its first seven days out. Compared to artists like Drake or Bad Bunny, these numbers are obviously minuscule, but as Caresha pointed out on Twitter, she’s not mad at the results. “That’s good for a b**ch who voice y’all hate and can’t rap,” the Florida native wrote on Monday (October 23) evening.

Yung Miami is Plotting on Her Haters

In another post, Miami made it clear that she’s keeping tabs on those who are throwing shade her way. “All of a sudden everybody hate me,” she posted yesterday. “I’m bookmarking everything . I love to make a b**ch eat they words!” the “Twerkulator” artist further noted.

Even though the numbers for City On Lock (approximately 19K) were substantially higher than RAW, the former album actually stirs up plenty of emotional turmoil within Yung Miami whenever it crosses her mind. Ahead of their latest drop, the City Girls sat down together to discuss their past work, which gets the podcaster all up in her feelings over the untimely death of her baby daddy. Read everything Miami had to say at the link below and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Bad Bunny’s First Week Sales Lower Than Projected, Offset & Ken Carson Do Impressive Numbers

October 20, 2023 by newhiphopnews

October has undeniably been one of the biggest months that rap has had in 2023 so far, namely due to the long-awaited arrival of Drake’s For All The Dogs. When the father of one finally put that out for his fans, many others felt more comfortable sharing their work, knowing they wouldn’t disappear beneath Drizzy. The next weekend, Bad Bunny shared his surprise LP, Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va A Pasar Manana, which was initially projected to sell 200 – 225K copies in its first week out.

On Friday (October 20), the final numbers came in, revealing that Benito fell short of Hits Daily Double‘s estimate by a few thousand. Instead, his album moved 8K in pure sales plus 174K in streaming, totalling 183K. Elsewhere in the world of hip-hop, Offset impressed us by selling 70K album-equivalent units of his latest solo project, SET IT OFF. Far more of his came from pure sales (26K) than we saw with Bunny, crediting just 43K to streaming.

We also saw noteworthy efforts from Ken Carson and Westside Gunn appear on this week’s chart. The former sold 49K copies of A Great Chaos, while the latter moved 20K of And Then They Pray For You. The Griselda hitmaker faced some backlash over his work, but he was quick to address the haters on social media before focusing energy back on his big plans for the future.

Carson impressed plenty of music lovers with his A Great Chaos project, including Drake. The Canadian gave him a co-sign on Instagram, which obviously means the world to an up-and-comer at this time. Read more about that at the link below, and let us know which new album from October has been your favourite so far in the comments.

“First Person Shooter” Helps Drake Tie Michael Jackson “Billboard” Hot 100 Record

October 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

At this point in his career, there’s not much that Drake feels he has to prove. The father of one is impressing us with his album run since unleashing Certified Lover Boy in 2021. After that came Honestly, Nevermind and Her Loss in 2022. Heading out on tour to perform hits from all of those was an ambitious feat, but Drizzy delivered on his It’s All a Blur adventure with 21 Sav back in the summer, all while working on his latest LP, For All The Dogs.

That project arrived just in time for Drake’s hometown shows in Toronto, where he brought out guests like Sexyy Red and Lil Baby. Thanks to 21 Sav finally getting a green card, he was able to perform in the 6ix on the tour’s final night, which is also when J. Cole came out to join his friend for “First Person Shooter.” Some have suggested that the Dreamville head “cooked” Champagne Papi on his own track, but nevertheless, both men had a blast spitting their well-crafted verses.

Drake and J. Cole’s For All The Dogs Collab Comes Out on Top

We’ve been eagerly waiting to see which of Drake’s newest arrivals would land atop the Billboard Hot 100 chart. On Monday (October 16) it was confirmed to be “First Person Shooter,” which officially marks Cole’s first-ever No. 1 song in his career to date. Besides that exciting news, it also means that the Scorpion hitmaker is now tied with Michael Jackson for the most chart-topping tracks from a solo male vocalist. Both the living and the deceased have amassed 13, and after his recently announced hiatus, it’s entirely possible that we’ll see the multi-talent overtake the King of Pop.

Tying Michael Jackson’s Billboard record is certainly an impressive feat for Drake, but still, that doesn’t mean the response to For All The Dogs has been totally positive. More specifically, the 36-year-old’s Spanish vocals on “Gently” featuring Bad Bunny left at least one TikToker’s mother less than pleased. See her reaction to the song at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Drake Wears Michael Jackson-Inspired Glove In Preparation For New Record

October 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Drake is one of the biggest artists of all time. Although some people find his newest material to be underwhelming, there are plenty of people out there who love everything he does. Overall, he is a massive artist, and that will never change. In fact, his latest release, For All The Dogs, is yet another example of just how massive of an artist he is. He just sold 400K units in his first week and he has the number one album in the world. Moreover, he is going to have the biggest song in the world, and we are still waiting to see which track it will be.

With this new album release, much has been made about how Drake is about to tie Michael Jackson for the most number one records ever. Of course, this is a massive record. Jackson was the “King of Pop,” and some felt like his record could never be broken. However, it is now going to eventually be beaten by Canada’s greatest export. With the record now within Drake’s grasp, he is now taking to Instagram, where he can be seen mimicking one of Michael Jackson’s most iconic looks.

In the Instagram story above, you can see Drake with a drink in his hand. Moreover, he has a special bedazzled white glove on. Overall, it is pretty easy to make the leap that he is trying to mimic Michael. Drizzy is someone who is well aware of his records. After all, he got a tattoo of himself on Abby Road with the Beatles after he surpassed them. Consequently, it should not be surprising to see him do this.

Soon, Drake will one day beat the record outright, or at least we assume he will. Let us know what you think of Drizzy and his latest album, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the music world. We will always be sure to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists.

Bad Bunny’s First Week Sales Projections Suggest No. 1 Debut For “Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va A Pasar Manana”

October 14, 2023 by newhiphopnews

When Bad Bunny last surprised us with an album, Un Verano Sin Ti, the Latin rapper went on to break records for weeks to follow. His work was constantly resurfacing on Billboard‘s charts, beating out other rappers and singers thanks to the infectious vibe he curated on that LP. At the time, Benito managed to sell 328M copies in his first week out, solidifying his status as one of the biggest commercial artists in the industry at this time.

After dropping off his latest project, Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va A Pasar Manana on Friday (October 13) with just a few days’ notice, Hits Daily Double has shared their first week sales projections for the 22-song effort. According to the outlet, Bunny’s album will move anywhere from 200 – 225K copies in the days immediately after dropping, which obviously marks a decline from his 2022 release. Nevertheless, the “Tarot” artist will likely outsell Drake’s For All The Dogs as it continues to amass streams during its second week out.

Bad Bunny Could Take No. 1 on the Charts

As we previously reported, the Canadian achieved the seventh-largest opening day in Spotify history with his R&B-centric LP. Bunny’s Nadie Sabe also made waves on the platform with his surprise drop becoming the “most-streamed album in a single day in 2023 so far.” It was a slow start to the year in terms of No. 1 rap albums, so seeing both Drake and his “Gently” collaborator continuing to push boundaries has been exciting for hip-hop heads.

Bad Bunny brought plenty to the table in terms of his new album, but what’s really got social media talking are his apparent references to his sex life with Kendall Jenner, as well as his name-drop of J Balvin on “THUNDER Y LIGHTNING.” Seeing as the latter duo has collaborated in the past, the Colombian was left surprised by Benito’s apparent diss. Read what he had to say at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
