Usher Will Strap On Roller Skates For His Super Bowl Halftime Show

February 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Usher’s Super Bowl halftime show is right around the corner this weekend -– and yeah, we guess the football game will be cool, too. Jokes aside, a lot of people are very excited for this spectacle, as its build-up and “rollout” involved a brand new album and a lot of interesting promo material and artist link-ups. Not only that, but it seems like the R&B star’s recent Las Vegas residency (where he will perform again for the Super Bowl) will play a pretty large role here. For example, he told Access Hollywood that he would bring back a roller skating sequence from that run of shows.

“When you think about skating, it’s not just rolling and the music,” Usher remarked about the upcoming performance. “It’s also to what you wear. It’s how you feel. Somewhere during the pandemic I had this bright idea to just go back to having fun, and that’s what this is. I want to offer the same thing to people who come here to dance, and listen to music, have a few drinks, and just chill out or even get on skates and have a good time. Again, you might fall down but you get back up, but you have fun.”

In addition, Usher’s history with roller skating is actually pretty well-documented, and manifested in a big way a couple of years ago. Back in 2022, he joined Q-Tip, Meek Mill, and more artists to help open Flipper’s Roller Boogie Palace at Rockefeller Center in New York City. The Dallas native performed for its opening night ceremony as a headliner, and is also the company’s brand ambassador. We hope that these artist connections mean that there’s a chance the Super Bowl halftime show will host some special guests.

Meanwhile, these rumors about folks like Alicia Keys coming out with the 45-year-old will probably continue with fervor until we get the show. What are you looking forward to the most about this upcoming performance? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments section down below. Also, stick around on HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Usher.

“Baddies East” River Fight Leaves Bloody-Eyed Mariahlynn Heated

February 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Baddies East doesn’t just show viewers fights in houses, clubs, and resorts, but also out in the wild. Moreover, the cast members recently went on a river trip, presumably still during their trip to Jamaica, and things got heated quick. We already knew that there was a lot of beef brewing between Mariahlynn and the tag team of Sukihana and Sapphire, who still had some bumps on the road. In the newest episode preview for this week’s installment airing tonight (Sunday, February 4 at 8PM EST on the Zeus Network), we saw how these three had a fight at the river, leaving Mariah with a bloody eye.

Furthermore, we also see the immediate fallout of the incident, with both sides taunting and blasting each other. Mariahlynn believes that they wrongfully duped her by making Sukihana distract her while Sapphire snuck up and struck her. Even though fans are always down to see these feuds play out, nothing can last forever, and these ladies might see a replacement down the line. In fact, Natalie Nunn recently expressed desires to get Rose Blanchard on Baddies and denied any tension between them.

Elswehere, though, the Baddies East team and that of its sibling shows receives plenty of drama for reasons unrelated to episode storylines. For example, Stunna Girl recently accused the Zeus Network CEO Lemuel Plummer of sleeping with cast members, claims that he quickly clapped back against. With so much of these series focusing on drama, conflict, and scandalous content, it’s no surprise that it leaks into the behind-the-scenes discussions. Hopefully folks dive into the rumor mill regardless to determine what’s going on and whether there’s any damaging wrongdoing.

Meanwhile, this new episode’s antics might not compare in many’s eyes to that of arguably the franchise’s most notable former star. Chrisean Rock is as dominant in the headlines as ever for her volatile relationships and family life. Perhaps future episodes will feature a comeback, as unlikely as it is right now. Nevertheless, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Baddies East.

JT Previews New Solo Music With Karaoke Videos

January 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Last year, JT and Yung Miami released their newest album RAW. The album features appearances from Lil Durk, Muni Long, Juicy J, Usher, and Kim Petras. Despite those impressive features, the record underperformed commercially. Fans online compared its performance to the duo’s previous effort City On Lock and looked for reason why it wasn’t translating. One fan theory is that maybe the pair are better off as solo artists, something they’ve mused on before.

JT has been teasing towards a substantial solo release since months before the release of RAW. It started when she dropped her debut solo single “No Bars.” The song received some positive buzz from both fans and critics and is among the most streamed tracks on RAW. Before the album even released she claimed that she was still hungry, a statement that many fans assumed meant there was a solo project on the way. She’s made some moves and some statements in 2024 that have fans even more confident she will be dropping something soon.

JT Raps Her New Songs

At the beginning of the month, JT made a vow for 2024. She took to social media to express her goal to release not just good verses, but entire good songs. It seems like yet another indication that this year will be the one where she becomes a full-on solo artist. She followed it up a few days later with a snippet of new music that saw her going in an entirely new direction.

Now she’s sharing previews of even more new music. This time, she’s doing karaoke to her own songs giving fans a preview of both the tracks and her potential live performances of them. While no concrete news about new music is available yet, she’s clearly been busy working. What do you think of the new songs JT has previewed so far this year? Would you be excited for a solo project from the City Girls rapper? Let us know in the comment section below.

Sukihana Blasts Sapphire & Mariahlynn In New “Baddies East” Episode Preview

January 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Baddies East is back and apparently more combative than ever, if even possible, because all the storylines in this episode preview are about tensions between the cast members. Moreover, if you’re curious and watch to see what’s going on, tune into the Zeus Network today (Sunday, January 21) at 8PM EST. As far as what there is to look forward to, we know that the girls are still on their Jamaica trip, from what it seems. Not only did that bring up plenty more conflict, but it’s also one that caused one of the most controversial parts of the season so far with Smiley’s medical emergency and how people thought she faked it.

Furthermore, the first thing we see in this Baddies East episode preview is Sukihana getting splashed in her face with a drink from Scarface. Later on, she calls out one of her best friends on the reality TV program, Sapphire, for not defending her properly and not walking the walk after talking the talk. We’ve seen that Suki doesn’t discriminate when it comes to the smoke, so she also holds her friends up to a certain standard of attack and defense. As we’ll find out soon, it’s not the only issue that she’s facing.

Elsewhere, this upcoming Baddies East episode will also feature Natalie Nunn and her pal Scotty trying to get back on good terms. Apparently, they had a nasty interaction over text where they were talking smack about one another. Unfortunately, it looks like their efforts weren’t very successful, as they got to fighting once again. No wonder that Nunn is looking for new members if there seems to be a new opponent every week.

Meanwhile, it seems like the beef between Sukihana and Mariahlynn will continue in the next episode. Mariah has “secret issues” with the former that haven’t come to light, but that could act as the climax for this episode or a lead-in for the next. We’ll see whether this episode will be a one-time offer… or if none of this will wrap up by next week. In any case, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on the Baddies East squad.

Coi Leray Struts In The Snow While Dancing To New Song Preview: Watch

January 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Coi Leray’s got some new music coming out soon, and she’s proving that she doesn’t need to be scantily-clad to show off her dance moves. Moreover, on Saturday (January 20), under heavy snow and a lot of layers, she danced to her upcoming single “Wanna Come Through,” which producer Mike WiLL Made-It hyped up in the Instagram comments section. It’s a pretty fitting cut for the visual, with wintery synths, mid-tempo trap percussion, and soft vocal melodies, so at least we know it’ll fit for the season. After all, the Massachusetts MC’s prolific social media presence and release schedule means she’s always got something to bring for any temperature.

Furthermore, a lot of people are becoming more and more of a fan of Coi Leray’s style and aesthetic, especially from a performance standpoint. She’s been throwing it back for the ‘Gram for a while now, and there certainly aren’t as many haters as there were when she first started doing so. In fact, fans want to see a twerking showdown between the “Bops” hitmaker and Megan Thee Stallion one day. Maybe it’ll happen, maybe not, but it’s unlikely that they’ve shaken their last rump just yet.

Of course, these antics can get some controversy online for their lewd or sexually suggestive nature. Folks may remember when Busta Rhymes had to defend his collaboration with Coi Leray against her own father Benzino after he called Busta out for including her “half-naked” in its music video. “My thing first and foremost is Benzino has my number and he knows how to reach me,” he expressed on Way Up With Angela Yee. “You ain’t gotta address me about nothing on no social media ‘cause you got my phone number. I’ve never had to address him about a problem and there’s been plenty of different issues that we’ve actually went through that led to actual violence that we was able to resolve civil and respectfully. But the point that I’m trying to make is up until probably right now, this is not public information.

“I’m not saying this to promote the issue,” Busta Rhymes concluded. “I’m saying this to promote how the code of ethics was upheld and how we dealt with issues. We resolved it as men face to face. We wasn’t on social media, we didn’t talk on the radio. But if we really gon’ live by the proper code of ethics that we was raised on, then why you incriminating yourself talking about any conflict that you got with anybody on a social media platform or on a record anywhere? Talk to the person. That’s the grown man thing to do.” For more news and the latest updates on Coi Leray, check back in with HNHH.

Ice Spice Previews Music Video For Upcoming Single

January 14, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Ice Spice is looking to kick off her 2024 in a big way, it seems. Recently, she took to social media to tease a music video or other promotional visual for an upcoming single, which presumably contains the infamous “fart” bar that the Internet went wild over earlier in the week. Moreover, the Bronx rapper was arguably 2023’s shining star when it comes to hip-hop, and it’s no surprise that she wants to heat things up even more this year. Of course, there’s no release information or anything like that yet, but there’s still a lot of anticipation and excitement for this single. After all, we got so much from the 24-year-old in the last 12 months that a two-month break feels like a two-year one.

Still, these new visuals aren’t just hinting at that, as no promo is safe from beef rumors that plague rap discussion. This time around, the speculative conversation is around Ice Spice and Latto, as many believe that the two have a feud going on. However, what’s funny is that the instances of “evidence” that people point to could just as easily be an attack as it could be a co-sign. For example, when the Atlanta artist recently previewed a snippet, she played Spice’s “Pretty Girl” music video on a TV in the background as she raps, “I just want a one-on-one, don’t know why she so nervous.” We’ll let you be the judge.

Elsewhere, though, the “Bikini Bottom” MC is building many more bridges in the game than the ones she’s allegedly burning. Playboi Carti recently shouted her out on his new single “BACKR00MS” featuring Travis Scott, another highly anticipated artist poised to dominate the year. Ice Spice actually shouted the song out online, giving her blessing and provoking God’s wrath by making a Carti and Spice collab a possibility in fans’ heads. The Lord will never forgive us for this, the Gen Z-est temptation in music these days.

Meanwhile, we actually wouldn’t be surprised if RiotUSA’s dynamic duo partner takes it easy these days. She just celebrated her birthday, and might want to just enjoy life right now. So whenever these visuals for this song drop, we’ll know that Ice Spice is ready to play. For more news and the latest updates on her, stay posted on HNHH.

Lil Nas X Gives Fans An Extended Listen To His Forthcoming Gospel-Inspired “J CHRIST” Single

January 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It seems that Georgia rapper and singer Lil Nas X is finally making a full return to his music career. Yesterday, January 8, the 24-year-old shared the cover art and release date for his brand-new single, “J CHRIST.” It will be out on Friday, January 12, and it will see his foray into Christian/gospel music. Nas X has been talking about making a religious switch for quite some time now. In fact, it was just over a year ago that he began making these statements.

They have put him in some hot water and Nas X feels like he was “blackballed” from dropping anything in 2023. But, the wait is finally coming to an end for him and his fan base. Lil Nas is dedicating this track to the special man above. In his Instagram announcement post, he says, “MY NEW SINGLE IS DEDICATED TO THE MAN WHO HAD THE GREATEST COMEBACK OF ALL TIME!”

Lil Nas X Has People Excited

On top of the art and day of the release, Nas X has given fans plenty more to chew on in the coming days. A fan account on Twitter (known now as X) unearthed a possible preview of “J CHRIST.” The teaser is about 1:45 long and sounds very good. It is not a full dive into Christian music, but the elements are prevalent. Nas X is rapping over some heavenly background vocals mixed with some trap kick drums. Fans are digging what they hear so far. One says, “Wow this is beautiful.” Another says, “This go hard [flame emojis].”

What are your initial thoughts on this brand-new preview of Lil Nas X’s upcoming single? Do you think this is a good direction for him to go with his music, why or why not? Will this next album be better than his debut, MONTERO? Is his controversial nature good or bad for his image and why? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this.

Latto Goes Braless To Preview New Music, Fans Suspect Cardi B Shade

January 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Latto fans have been waiting for new solo music from the Atlanta-born femcee for some time now. Luckily, it seems as though their prayers will be answered soon. The “Put It On Da Floor” performer took to Instagram today to share a photo dump from what appears to be a fun girls trip. She provided fans with a snippet from an unreleased song too, giving listeners a taste of what’s to come.

Latto shared some shots of herself out on the town, posing in a white mini-skirt and a t-shirt reading “ex-virgin.” She and some friends are seen surrounded by cash in one photo, spending their evening at what appears to be a strip club. Latto also shared a clip rhyming along with the upcoming track, flaunting her figure and throwing some shade.

“I don’t sing R&B but b*tch I’m really her, f*ck wrong with n****s / How you let him cheat and take him back, must be your only n***a,” she spits. The line has resulted in rumors that she’s dissing none other than her “Put It On Da Floor Again” collaborator, Cardi B. The NYC native is currently going through a public split from the father of her kids, Offset. He’s cheated on her previously, and some fans speculate that his reoffending led to the breakup.

“Not the Cardi stray,” one Twitter user writes. “The cardi diss is nasty,” someone else claims. Plenty of other users are coming to her defense amid the speculation, however, noting how this isn’t the first time she’s mentioned cheating in her music. What do you think of Latto teasing new music with a thirst trap? How’s the song sounding so far? Do you think she’s shading Cardi B with her cheating line, or are social media users reaching?

Jonathan Majors Tearfully Reflects On Assault Conviction In ABC Interview Trailer

January 6, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Last month, Jonathan Majors was found guilty of assaulting his ex, Grace Jabbari. The California native’s career has taken a major hit since the verdict was announced. In December, Marvel confirmed their decision to cut ties with him. He’s currently awaiting sentencing, which is set to take place on February 6. Majors could be looking at up to a year behind bars.

Earlier this week, it was revealed that the Emmy-nominated actor will be sitting down with ABC‘s Linsey Davis on Good Morning America for his first post-trial interview. In a new trailer, Majors grows emotional as he reflects on being convicted of reckless assault. “It’s been hard,” he says, wiping tears from his eyes. “Do you think you’ll ever work in Hollywood again? Davis asks.

The trailer cut off there, and viewers will have to wait for the full interview to drop on Monday to hear his response. According to his attorney, Priya Chaudhry, Majors “looks forward to fully clearing his name.” In a statement to NBC News, she explained that jurors weren’t convinced that he intentionally hurt Jabbari during their NYC spat. In security footage from the incident, Majors is seen pushing Jabbari into an SUV during an argument.

“It is clear that the jury did not believe Grace Jabbari’s story of what happened in the SUV because they found that Mr. Majors did not intentionally cause any injuries to her. We are grateful for that,” Chaudhry said. “We are disappointed, however, that despite not believing Ms. Jabbari, the jury nevertheless found that Mr. Majors was somehow reckless while she was attacking him.” What do you think of Jonathan Majors getting emotional while reflecting on being convicted of assault?

Jermaine Dupri Previews Nelly, Ashanti, And Juicy J Collab: Watch

January 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In November of last year, Jermaine Dupri announced that he has yet another legendary collab on the way, recruiting Nelly, Ashanti, and Juicy J for the upcoming song. “Although we talking bout double Dutch,this a NEW RECORD ALERT !!” he wrote alongside a clip from inside the studio. “I got @nelly @ashanti & @juicyj on the way !!”

Fans have been eagerly anticipating more details of the song since then, and luckily, Dupri has answered their wishes. In a new clip, the hitmaker is seen in the studio, announcing that he has a new EP in the works. According to him, the collab with Nelly, Ashanti, and Juicy J is set to be track No. 2.

“Yo, what’s up yall,” he begins. “I’m in here trynna get this mix done, on my new record featuring Nelly, Ashanti, and Juicy J… It’s an EP [I’m putting out] on Mass Appeal. The first single was with me and Jaqueese called ‘Pick It Up.’ This gon’ be the second song.
