Does Drake Have A Daughter As Kendrick Lamar Claims On ‘Meet The Grahams?’

May 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Drake’s tension with nearly half of hip-hop caused dozens of rumors to begin floating around online. It is hard to tell if Metro Boomin, the architect behind “Like That” (the track that kicked it all off), knew just how messy things would get. But he surely has provided the instrumentals for others to air out their grievances with Drake.

To quickly recap the mounting allegations made against Drake; Rick Ross accused him of undergoing several cosmetic procedures, including a rhinoplasty (more commonly referred as a nose job). The Weeknd alleged that his label, OVO Sounds, stifles the careers of its signees. Asap Rocky claimed to have been sexually involved with the mother of Drake’s son Adonis. With the exception of The Weeknd’s comments, so far Drake has addressed each remark in some way or another.

For starters, Drake seemingly denied getting a nose job. He also confirmed that Asap might have been involved with Adonis’ mother, but it doesn’t matter because in Drake’s eyes he had Rihanna (who so happens to be the mother of Asap Rocky’s two sons, RZA and Riot) first.

But on Kendrick Lamar’s latest lethal diss, “Meet The Grahams,” he pulled what fans are dubbing “a Pusha T.” Essentially, Kendrick challenged Drake’s parenting skills and manhood as he believes his foe is “hiding” another child – this time a daughter.

So, Does Drake Have A Daughter As Kendrick Lamar Claims On “Meet The Grahams?”

According to Drake’s post on May 3 via his Instagram Stories, the answer is no.

“Nah,” he wrote. “Hold on. Can someone find my hidden daughter please? And send her to me? These guys are in shambles.”

However, users online are having a hard time accepting Drake’s rebuttal as fact. Some have even taken him up on his research challenge. Based on Kendrick’s third verse, the child in question is supposedly no child at all but rather a preteen (approximately 12 years old).

With that nugget of information, users on X (formerly Twitter) dug up Drake’s post from January 15, 2012. For users, Drake’s “Baby girl” upload was all the proof they needed.

Kendrick said Drakes SECOND hidden child is a daughter who is 12 years old. Peep Drake’s tweet from 12 years ago. Help. #MeetTheGrahams https://t.co/QxQ84ua8zd

It doesn’t help that when Pusha T claimed Drake had a secret son (which turned out to be true), Drake behaved similarly. So, stick around long enough and things could change.

Listen to Kendrick Lamar’s full track below.

Kendrick Lamar Taunts Drake By Making Callback To Pusha T Beef On Surprise Diss Track

April 30, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kendrick Lamar is done sending warning shots like he did on his “Like That” verse. This time he is bringing out weapons of mass destruction. After leaving many wondering where he was after back-to-back responses from Drake, he has come out nowhere to tell The Boy he is done playing around. Just hours ago, Kendrick Lamar put out a new diss track “euphoria” on his YouTube page exclusively (for now hopefully). On the six-minute clap back, he addresses “Push Ups” and “Taylor Made Freestyle” with beat switches and ruthless shots. Across the track, Lamar calls Drake a scammer, a fake Black person, a dead-beat dad, and plenty more.

It seems K-Dot wanted to make it clear this time that the ball is now back in Drake’s court. That appears to be true, especially with bars like these. “Yeah, f*** all that pushin’ P, let me see you push a T / You better off spinnin’ again on him, you think about pushin’ me?” Lamar raps. This is a direct reference to Drizzy’s long-standing feud with King Push. Many view as one of his biggest L’s in his career and one that he still holds to this day. The Story Of Adidon was a vicious attack on Drake’s character and life choices, which is a similar approach that Lamar took as well.

Kendrick Lamar Came For Drake’s Life On This Diss Track

Essentially what Kendrick is saying here is that he needs to address that beef first before stepping to him. He also makes a clever reference to the time that Drake featured on Gunna’s “P power” and the song “pushin P.” Drake also used that popular catchphrase on his Her Loss track “Rich Flex.” “I’m steady pushin’ p, you n****s pushing PTSD.” This is a serious response from Lamar, and it will be interesting to see how this all plays out once again as the saga continues.

What are your thoughts on Kendrick Lamar referencing Pusha T on his new diss track “euphoria?” Was this the coldest bar on the song, why or why not? How long do you think we will have to wait before Drake responds to this? Who has the leg up in this battle right now? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding the Kendrick Lamar diss track, and Drake. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on around the music world.

Drake Kids: Does The Rap Megastar Have Any?

April 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

As one of the biggest pop superstars in the modern world, Drake has made no secret of his many sexual exploits. The “First Person Shooter” rapper has stated numerous times in his lyrics that he enjoys casual hookups with great frequency. This musical content has led many fans to wonder if Drake has numerous kids as a result of his lifestyle. As far as the public knows, Drake is the father of only one child named Adonis Graham. Adonis’s existence was revealed to the public during a 2018 rap beef, which saw Drake verbally sparring with rap legend Pusha T. Since then, Drake’s kid has gone on to share the spotlight with his famous dad and even release his music.

Adonis Was Born In October 2017

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Sophie Brussaux (@sophieknowsbetter)

Drake’s one and only kid was born to former pornography star Sophie Brussaux in 2017. When first confronted with the reality of fatherhood, Drake allegedly denied paternity claims over Adonis before ultimately coming to terms with his new role as a dad. The specific details of Drake’s acceptance of his son are quite murky. According to some fans and insiders, it seemed like Drake was a deadbeat dad until Pusha T revealed his son to the world. Others have argued that Drake was present in Adonis’s life before the rap feud.

Drake defended himself against claims that he had been absent in his kid’s life on the 2018 track “Emotionless.” In the song, Drake elucidates, “Look at the way we live. I wasn’t hiding my kid from the world, I was hiding the world from my kid.” Drake also claims that he planned to reveal Adonis to the world as part of a partnership with Adidas back in 2018, though Pusha T ultimately spoiled the surprise.

Pusha T Name-Dropped Adonis On Wax

In May 2018, Pusha T released the earth-shattering diss record “The Story Of Adidon.” The track, which makes use of the instrumental from Jay-Z’s “The Story Of OJ,” is a direct response to Drake’s “Duppy Freestyle,” which name-dropped Pusha T’s at-the-time fiancée. “The Story Of Adidon” revealed a wide array of explosive secrets, though the biggest saw Push referring to Drake as a deadbeat dad, and revealing the identity of Adonis and his mother.

On the track, Pusha T raps, “A baby’s involved, it’s deeper than rap / We talkin’ character, let me keep with the facts / You are hiding a child, let that boy come home / Deadbeat mothaf***er playin’ border patrol / Adonis is your son, and he deserves more than an Adidas press run.” Drake never formally responded to this track, though he has gone on to publicly acknowledge his kid’s existence since “The Story Of Adidon” dropped.

Adonis Has His Own Song Now

Regardless of Drake’s previous alleged experience with his son, he is now a loving father, frequently seen co-parenting in Sophie Brussaux’s social media posts. Sophie has referred to Drake as an amazing father over the years. Adonis has been seen tagging along with the rap superstar at sporting events, music video shoots, and other public outings. In 2023, Adonis took a hands-on role with his father’s music, drawing the cover art for Drake’s For All The Dogs album.

Additionally, Adonis has released his own song, titled “My Man Freestyle,” which showcases the six-year-old boy rapping a stream of consciousness about sports, his dad, and accidentally breaking his iPad. The music video for “My Man Freestyle” prominently features Drake, standing by as a proud dad while his son plays youth basketball with a gang of friends.

Pusha T Laughs at Drake’s Mob Talk, Says Not a ‘Pinky Nail’ Touched Him

April 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Pusha-T Claims 'They Won't Publish' a Children's Book He's Been Trying To Write For Years

Pusha T has reentered the chat. With a run of heavy hitters targeting Drake, The Boy’s No. 1 nemesis is laughing off his “Mob Ties.”

A user on X wrote: “I just wanted to point out that after all these years of mob talk from Drake, nobody ever laid a finger on
@PUSHA_T”

And Pusha T had time, writing back, “Not a pinky nail…”

Not a pinky nail…

— King Push (@PUSHA_T) April 2, 2024

In July 2023, Drake reignited the beef and drug King Push’s longtime friend Pharrell Williams into the drama.

Drake appears on Travis Scott’s UTOPIA album and goes right back at Pusha T, but references the historic chains he purchased that once belonged to Pharrell. Let Drake tell it; he melted them down already.

“Man, fuck all that spinning the narrative shit
I melt down the chains I bought from your boss
Give a fuck about all of that heritage shit
Since V not around the members done hung up the Louis
They not even wearing that shit”

– Drake

Drake purchased the Jacob & Co. skateboard pendant that Pharrell once wore frequently. It was part of an online auction and sold for $103K. Drake was then spotted with the chain in St. Barth’s and the “Jumbotron Shit Poppin” video. He is also believed to have purchased other pieces of Pharrell’s chain.

Drake was done with his jewelry purchases, promoting the single, The Boy showed off Tupac’s ring which soared past $1 million at Sotheby’s to promote the single.

Who Is Opening For Kid Cudi’s ‘Insano World Tour’ In 2024?

February 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kid Cudi is making good on all his promises to fans in 2023. After delaying his anticipated album, Insano, the project is finally available across streaming platforms. As an added treat, the “Heaven’s Galaxy” rapper released the deluxe version shortly after. Now, after a string of pop-up shows, Cudi is ready to embark on a full tour to support a body of work.

Yesterday (February 22), Cudi took to his official X (formerly Twitter) page to tease his forthcoming Insano World Tour. So, what do we know about the schedule of performances? To be honest, not much in terms of dates and ticket prices. However, thanks to the graphic shared by Cudi and the tour’s fan sign-up webpage, two opening acts have been unveiled.

Who Is Opening For Kid Cudi’s Insano World Tour In 2024?

So far, Pusha T and Jaden are the only confirmed guests for the Insano World Tour. But Kid Cudi has hinted that more musicians will be added to the lineup later.

Pusha T

Rap veteran Pusha T is the first name listed on the announcement poster, and rightfully so. The Virginia Beach, Virginia native made his bones as part of the sibling hip-hop duo Clipse (known for hits songs “Grindin” and “Mr. Me Too” produced by The Neptunes). As a soloist, Pusha T has found success under Kanye West’s GOOD Music Imprint, releasing a series of revered mixtapes and albums. But his most popular track to date is his 2018 record “The Story Of Adidon,” his diss toward Drake.

However, now that Pusha T has distanced himself from West, Cudi and West reconciled, things could get interesting on the road.

Jaden

Jaden is the second supporting act listed on Kid Cudi’s Insano World Tour announcement graphic. If you were asking yourself, is that the Jaden you think it is…yes it is. Jaden, a.k.a Jaden Smith, the actor, humanitarian, and musician, will join Cudi on the road. Most people tend to remember Jaden from his on-screen cameos in films such as The Pursuit Of Happyness and Karate Kid. Still, most of his creative pursuits are in music (i.e., Spider-Man: Miles Morales soundtrack appearance).

Jaden first broke into music with his hit 2017 song, “Icon.” Given Jaden’s deep admiration and friendship with Cudi, his set will be interesting to watch.

Is Kid Cudi Going On Tour In 2024?

February 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kid Cudi started 2024 on a high note with the January release of his ninth album, Insano. Usually, there’s a tour announcement to accompany the release of an album from a major artist like Cudi, but Insano came and went with no tour news.

Is Kid Cudi Going On Tour In 2024?

Now, though, Cudi has confirmed that he is indeed going on tour. On X (formerly Twitter) yesterday (February 22), Cudi shared a poster announcing the Insano World Tour, with support from Pusha T, Jaden Smith, and others to be announced.

— The Chosen One (@KiDCuDi) February 22, 2024

No tour dates have been announced yet, but Cudi included a link to a website where interested parties can sign up with their email address to be notified when dates are unveiled. So, no dates yet, but one would imagine Cudi will be on the road in 2024, given how early in the year he’s teasing the tour.

Meanwhile, 2024 has been a year of beef for Cudi. In January, he and Lupe Fiasco got into it a bit before he later confirmed that the two are finally “good” and on a “brand new journey.” Then, a few days ago, he seemingly indicated he’s not on the best terms with Donald Glover/Childish Gambino.

Kid Cudi Announces World Tour With Support From Pusha T And Jaden Smith

February 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this year, Kid Cudi released his new album INSANO. The project was originally intended to drop last year but was delayed multiple times. The project eventually arrived on January 12 sporting some impressive features. Travis Scott, A$AP Rocky, Lil Yachty, Pharrell, XXXTENTACION, Lil Wayne, and Young Thug all appear on the lengthy record. Despite that, the album sold just modest numbers in the wake of rough reviews from many critics.

Despite the mixed response to the record, Kid Cudi is announcing a major tour in support of it. In a tweet earlier today he announced an INSANO world tour. While he didn’t release any specific dates or countries he plans to visit he did announce two of the artists planned as openers. Those artists are Pusha T and Jaden Smith, though the announcement promises even more openers to be revealed later. Despite the scant announcement fans are pretty excited for the chance to see Cudi perform this year. Check out the reveal he made on Twitter and some of the fan reactions to it below.

Kid Cudi Going On An “INSANO” World Tour

Last week, Kid Cudi announced a new album called INSANO (NITRO MEGA). Though it sounds like a deluxe edition of the original album, Cudi has hinted that it’s a project entirely its own. Many are speculating that the new project could be something similar to Lil Uzi Vert’s LUV vs. The World 2, a new album added to Eternal Atake disguised as a deluxe edition.

The announcement of Pusha T as an opener won’t surprise fans who have been paying attention. Earlier this month Push took to social media to share a heartfelt birthday with for Cudi. Where do you think Kid Cudi will hit on his world tour? Do you plan on seeing him in concert later this year? Who do you think could be performing alongside him in addition to Pusha T and Jaden Smith? Let us know in the comment section below.
