Wack 100 Gets Dragged For Sudden Nipsey Hussle Praise

August 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this week, Wack 100 hopped online to share some kind words about none other than late West Coast icon, Nipsey Hussle. “@nipseyhussle I’ve checked the #’s he’s up dam near 5000% overall when it comes to music & merch … And TV series or Movie has yet to drop which will drive that # up even more .. I now call him a musical #LEGEND ….. #West,” he wrote on Instagram. “The Truth Can Never Be Considered Disrespect … I call a [spade] a [spade]…. @nipseyhussle musical #LEGEND,” he added in a subsequent post. Wack’s comments were a response to reports that Victory Lap, Nipsey’s last album, has officially surpassed one billion streams on Spotify.

While Nipsey’s fanbase certainly agrees with Wack, some have taken the opportunity to call the music manager out. He hasn’t always had nice things to say about the rapper, and evidently, they haven’t forgotten. In 2022, for example, Wack alleged that he had a sex tape featuring Nipsey and another man. He also previously shot down claims that he’s a “legend.”

Clearly, Wack has had a change of heart, and social media users aren’t here for it. In his comments section, they’re slamming him for switching up after trashing Nipsey in the past. “U been slandering this man legacy and name for years now u wanna show love smh. U said what u said now stay on tht side,” one Instagram user says. “My problem you just all last year talking about a sextape you got on old boi now you posting showing love,” another writes.

What do you think of Wack 100 receiving backlash from Nipsey Hussle fans for suddenly praising the late rapper despite criticizing him in the past? Do you think he deserves it or are commenters overreacting? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Ty Dolla Sign Claims Kanye West Is “One Of The Best” People He’s Met

June 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West’s various controversies continue to follow him throughout his career. According to Ty Dolla Sign, however, that hasn’t been a deterrent for him. During a recent interview with Billboard, he spoke about his Vultures collaborator, dubbing him one of the best people he knows. Moreover, he theorizes that Ye’s talent is what’s allowed him to recover from all of his past scandals, and continue to retain a fanbase.

“Ye is the best artist of this generation, besides me, and I don’t give a f*ck about what people were talking about,” Ty told the outlet. “I know my n***a. He’s one of the best people I’ve ever met.” He went on to share how he thinks Ye is able to bounce back so quickly, which is why he claims he wasn’t concerned about the performance of Vultures 1.

“Just with my analysis of how it goes with him, he goes all the way to the top,” he explained. “And something may happen and he’ll say [something people find offensive] — and then people [get] right back, you know. Because this sh*t is undeniable.” The duo has more on the way, and hopefully, it’ll arrive sooner rather than later. Vultures 2 was initially expected to arrive in March, which came and went with no album in sight. According to the NFR Podcast, however, he recently revealed that “The album is almost done and could be released any day now.”

“Tweet a picture of a table if you held at gunpoint rn,” one user responded to the take.

He is currently serving a 10-year prison sentence. Toosii isn’t the only artist to speak on his talents as of late.

J Cole Collaborator Daylyt Reveals He Heard “The Fall Off,” His Reaction Has Us Pumped

April 29, 2024 by newhiphopnews

J Cole has been through the wringer over the last month or so. He has had to deal with severe amounts of backlash from fans and peers alike for how he has gone about handling the Kendrick Lamar diss. The apology really turned a lot of people off, while a small group was fine with it, as it is his not what drives him as a rapper. So much so, that he went and removed “7 Minute Drill” from his surprise mixtape Might Delete Later. Additionally, Kanye West recently piled on the lyricist with his “Like That” remix, saying, “Play J. Cole, get the p***y dry.” But the comeback for J Cole could be massive, as one of his recent collaborators, Daylyt, reveals that he was thoroughly impressed with The Fall Off.

The rumored send off album has been mercilessly teased for years, as we are still awaiting an official release date for it. But with the recent vlogs on YouTube showing some behind the scenes of the album, the hope is it will be out sooner than later at this point. Daylyt, who was a feature on the Might Delete Later cut “Pi,” recently heard The Fall Off and had nothing but glowing reviews for it. A YouTube channel screen recorded the Instagram live session in which Daylyt spoke about it and has us even more excited for what is to come.

Daylyt Has Huge Praise For J Cole & “The Fall Off”

If you want to skip to the comments about it, fast forward to around the 17:45 mark. “Ima say it loud and clear. I heard ‘The Fall Off,’ I’m spillin’ the beans, it’s one of the best levels of rapping I have ever witnessed,” Daylyt said. “Cole is goin’ out with a nuclear missile, I’m tellin’ y’all that… he literally was like ‘I don’t give a f*** about the radio, I just wanna show the world my pen before I die.’”

What are your thoughts on Daylyt saying The Fall Off is “one of the best levels of rapping I have ever heard?” Do you think this will be the best album that J Cole ever drops, why or why not?

Fat Joe Calls Chris Brown “The 2Pac Of 2024” Amid Quavo Beef

April 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this week, Fat Joe took to Instagram Live to weigh in on all of the high-profile rap beef going on these days. He commented on Drake’s feud with almost everyone, for example, calling Kendrick’s “Like That” verse with Future and Metro Boomin “the original.” Since that release, however, there’s been another feud brewing between Chris Brown and Quavo. The two have taken various shots at one another over the past couple of weeks, referencing past flings, allegations, and more. According to Fat Joe, Chris Brown would be pretty tough to beat.

“Of course, the 2Pac of 2024 has to be Chris Brown. Chris Brown is considered an alien. If you playing basketball, he’ll bust your a**. If you sing against him, he sing better, he dance better. If he gotta rap, he raps,” he explained. “Like, that’s battle rap. Chris Brown, that’s the one I been listening to.”

Fat Joe On Rap Beef

While the 2Pac comparison is pretty controversial, many others agree that Chris Brown’s latest diss was impressive. He unleashed on the former Migos member on “Weakest Link,” claiming to have slept with Quavo’s ex Saweetie while they were still together. “You f*cked my ex-ho, that’s cool, I don’t give no f*ck, lil n***a/ ‘Cause I f*cked yo’ ex when you were still with her, b*tch, I’m up, lil n***a.” He even said that when his groupmate Takeoff passed away in 2022, “everybody really wished” it had been him.

Cam’ron, 50 Cent, and many more think he came out on top. Others continue to root for Quavo, despite Brown claiming his last diss “don’t even need a response.” What do you think of Fat Joe’s take on rap beef? Are you surprised that he compared Brown to 2Pac? Do you agree with him or was that a stretch? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

DaBaby Channels Sexyy Red In New “Get It Sexyy” Freestyle

April 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

DaBaby is certainly no stranger to freestyles, and his latest has fans impressed, to say the least. Earlier this week, the Cleveland-born MC stopped by Power 106, where he rapped over Metro Boomin and Future’s new viral track alongside Kendrick Lamar, “Like That.” He also paid tribute to Sexyy Red, rhyming over her latest solo single, “Get It Sexyy.”

DaBaby is receiving a ton of praise online for his effortless bars, with countless commenters leaving their own requests for other freestyles they want to see him take on next. “Everybody wants to hate on DaBaby, but he can actually rap,” one fan writes. Another says, “One thing we can’t argue is that boy can spit.”

This isn’t the only time the worlds of DaBaby and Sexyy Red have collided, however. Last summer, the duo linked up for a remix of his 2023 CALL DA FIREMAN cut “Shake Sumn,” which quickly became a fan favorite. They even joined forces to perform the track at the 2023 BET Hip Hop Awards after it was released. While listeners can agree that he delivered on his “Get It Sexyy” freestyle, not all of his work has gone over so well. Back in February, for example, he rapped over the iconic beat from Jay-Z’s The Black Album song “Public Service Announcement.” Many users felt as though the beat just wasn’t for him, and argued that he came up short.

Luckily, his other freestyles over Gunna’s “FUKUMEAN,” Burna Boy’s “Sittin’ On Top Of The World,” and more have been more well-received by fans. What do you think of DaBaby’s recent “Get It Sexyy” freestyle? How do you think he did? Do you think he deserves all the praise he’s receiving online or not?

Future & Metro Boomin Sample Charlamagne Tha God’s Praise On “We Still Don’t Trust You”

April 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Today, Future and Metro Boomin dropped their eagerly awaited new album, We Still Don’t Trust You. The LP follows the duo’s first collaborative album We Don’t Trust You, which they unveiled just last month. Kendrick Lamar’s appearance on “Like That” quickly went viral, as the MC dissed Drake and J. Cole. In his verse, he references “the big three,” which is commonly believed to be him, Drizzy, and Cole. “Motherf*ck the big three, n***a, it’s just big me,” he spits. Earlier this week, Charlamagne Tha God shared his own thoughts on the big three, revealing that he thinks Future deserves a spot too.

According to him, he’s one of the most influential rappers of the past decade and surpasses J. Cole easily. “They talking about a Big Three but really there’s a Fantastic Four. If you really wanna get a little spicy, Future could be in the Big Three,” he explained in an episode of Brilliant Idiots. “For better or worse, I can find a million Future clones all around the world. I don’t think there’s any rapper that’s influenced culture and music more than Future over the last decade. I think Future has influence. People wanna be Future, people wanna sound like Future.”

Future & Metro Boomin Unleash We Still Don’t Trust You

“I would have Drake, Future, Kendrick, personally,” he also added. “Statistically, if you’re talking about numbers and all of that, Future’s over Cole.” It looks like he appreciated the praise. He even used a sample of Charlamagne’s compliment for the new album. The Breakfast Club host’s voice appears on the track “#1 (Intro).”

Do you agree with his take on the big three or not? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Kendrick Lamar Praised Drake For Putting Him On Years Before “Like That” Diss, Resurfaced Clip Reveals

March 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Future and Metro Boomin’s new collaborative album We Don’t Trust You finally arrived this week, and needless to say, the reactions have been huge. Kendrick Lamar’s appearance on “Like That” has gone especially viral, as he went after both Drake and J. Cole on his verse. “F*ck sneak dissin’, first person shooter, I hope they came with three switches,” he rhymes. “Think I won’t drop the location? I still got PTSD/ Motherf*ck the big three, n***a, it’s just big me/ N***a, bum, what? I’m really like that/ And your best work is a light pack.”

Of course, social media users have been out in full force sharing their takes on the diss since the release, and a lot of them aren’t happy. Some even recently took the opportunity to dig up an old clip of Kendrick talking about Drake in an old interview. Oddly enough, he had nothing but nice things to say.

“Drake is a real good dude, first and foremost,” he says in the clip. “He heard my music probably a year back, reached out and just gave me respect on it… It was a mutual feeling for us, us appreciating the music.” Kendrick went on to explain how Drake invited him to join him on tour when he was still up and coming, claiming everyone involved had a “great bond.” While it remains unclear exactly what prompted Kendrick to slam the Canadian hitmaker on “Like That,” it’s apparent that he had a major change of heart somewhere down the line.

J. Cole’s Praise For Metro Boomin Resurfaces After Kendrick Lamar Diss

March 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Future and Metro Boomin’s new collaborative album We Don’t Trust You has already sparked plenty of discussion about who’s dissing who, but Kendrick Lamar left little room for interpretation on his feature. The hitmaker drags both Drake and J. Cole on “Like That,” and has since gone viral for it. “F*ck sneak dissin’, first person shooter, I hope they came with three switches,” he raps. “Think I won’t drop the location? I still got PTSD/ Motherf*ck the big three, n***a, it’s just big me/ N***a, bum, what? I’m really like that/ And your best work is a light pack.”

Amid the fallout from the diss, social media sleuths have dug up a clip of J. Cole talking about Metro Boomin in a vlog last month, and having nothing but nice things to say about him. “I was in the studio the other night and [Metro Boomin] was in there cooking up,” he says in the clip. “Everything is just like confident steps, you’re not judging it, you’re not thinking about it.”

While some fans think a response from J. Cole is necessary, others think Kendrick’s bars were really aimed at Drake, and J. Cole was just collateral. Either way, fans aren’t happy, and continue to debate on which of the rappers is really the GOAT. Kendrick Lamar wasn’t the only one throwing shade on the new album either, as Future also seemingly went after Drake on the project’s title track.

“You a n***a number one fan, dog/ Sneak dissin’, I don’t understand, dog/ Pillowtalkin’, actin’ like a fed, dog/ I don’t need another fake friend, dog/ Can’t be ’bout a ho, ’cause we sharin’, dog/ In you feelings, n***a, why you playin’, dog?” he rhymes.
