Erica Mena Calls Ray J The N-Word During Shocking Rant

August 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this week, Erica Mena took to Instagram Live to unleash a fiery rant on Ray J. During her rant, she went in on him, Princess Love, Monica, and more. “Talk your s**t lil n***a,” she said. “I probably wasn’t supposed to say that… Stop playing with me. All of y’all motherf******s. I’m not on that…”

This prompted a lengthy response from Ray J, who shared a clip from the Live on Instagram yesterday. In his caption, he accused her of being racist. He also brought up her viral altercation on Love & Hip Hop Atlanta, which saw her call her co-star Spice a “monkey.” Ray J even took the opportunity to mention Mena’s ex Safaree, who she frequently criticizes online.

For obvious reasons, this earned Mena a great deal of backlash from viewers and got her suspended from the show. According to Ray J, however, she hasn’t learned her lesson. “Why call me the N word! @ericamena,” his caption begins. “After the racist Monkey comment you made about black people, you just felt like you could take it to the next level and call me a N***a huh??”

“SMH,” he continued. “When you make mistakes and take a L – you suppose to Learn from them , This is not cool – @safaree is my friend I don’t get into with my peoples BM. – we shooting our own shows and living life to the fullest!! – God bless you and Subscribe to @tronixnetwork – … why we got you so mad? Damn! We only been out 5/6months.” What do you think of Erica Mena going after Ray J, Princess Love, and more on Instagram Live this week? What about him accusing her of being racist for her remarks?

Nicki Minaj’s Arrest Wasn’t Racially Motivated, Dutch Police Insist

June 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Last week, Nicki Minaj was arrested in Amsterdam and hit with a drug charge, later getting released and given a fine. She canceled her scheduled performances in the Netherlands capital as a result, and soon took to social media to vent. The “FTCU” rapper made it clear that she wasn’t happy with the way she was treated by authorities. She suggested that the run-in could have been a result of racial profiling, citing a similarly unfortunate situation Ari Lennox dealt with in 2021.

Now, however, Dutch police are refuting those claims. A rep for the department recently spoke with the NOS, stating that authorities were simply following protocol. Moreover, they called it “annoying” that Nicki suggested the arrest could have been racially motivated, insisting that they treat everyone equally.

Dutch Police Claim Nicki Minaj’s Arrest Went “Smoothly”

“It’s annoying if she experienced it that way,” the rep said. “We arrested her when we found dozens of joints in her luggage. The lady was released four hours after arrest in consultation with the public prosecutor, and after paying a fine. I think that it all went very smoothly. It’s annoying that she drew that card.”

They also spoke with BBC about the incident, making similar claims. “We just do our job, and it is protocol to search luggage and arrest a person when we find drugs,” they told the outlet. “The arrest was around 5:30 p.m., the release at 9:30 p.m. We stand for a professional organization that treats everybody equal, no matter what.” What do you think of Dutch authorities’ response to Nicki Minaj claiming that her recent arrest could have been racially motivated? What about them calling it “annoying” that she made the suggestion? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Benzino Posts Montage Of Eminem Using The N-Word, Calls Him “Racist”

March 14, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Benzino and Eminem have been at odds for some time now, and unfortunately, the release of the latter’s “Doomsday Pt. 2” only stoked the feud. In the track, which appears on Lyrical Lemonade’s album All Is Yellow, Em disses Benzino for his appearance, accuses him of being gay, and more. He even shuts down a hypothetical collab with The Source icon’s daughter, Coi Leray.

Of course, Benzino was quick to fire back, responding with not one but two diss tracks. He’s even currently gearing up to drop an accompanying music video for the second song, “Rap Elvis.” In order to prepare for the unveiling, he decided to throw a few jabs at Slim Shady on Instagram. Earlier today, he reposted a compilation of the white rapper using the n-word throughout his career, originally crafted by @treehillsclub.

“Throughout history you always had some black people who will constantly make excuses for racist white people,” Benzino captioned the post. “There will always be someone of color who thinks this is ok and it’s sad.” He went on to tease his new video, which is expected to arrive shortly. It will follow the release of Eminem’s “Doomsday Pt. 2” video, which dropped earlier this week. Benzino has high hopes for the video too, as evidenced by some of his latest comments about it.

“Oh y’all’s minds will be [mind blown emoji] when you see this,” he told fans of the upcoming visual. “I already [coffin emoji] him with [‘Rap Elvis’] so when I drop the video he’s permanently [headstone emoji] RIP.” What do you think of Benzino posting a compilation of Eminem using the N-word? Are you surprised? What about their ongoing feud? Are you looking forward to watching Benzino’s “Rap Elvis” music video when it finally drops?

Westside Gunn Doesn’t Plan On Returning To Canada After “Racist” Border Experience

February 19, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Recently, Westside Gunn had a less-than-pleasant experience while trying to travel over the border into Canada, which has made him reconsider visiting the country altogether. The performer took to Twitter/X last week to share his experience, revealing that he’d only ever venture that direction again for a solid payday.

“Unless I’m getting a big bag the way I was just treated infront of my kids I’m never going back to Canada,” he described. “& it’s sad bc I love [Canada] the love I get from there is beautiful + I have personal friends their but them racist MFs at the border BIG P*SSY & POOTIE called them broke.” He went on to share footage of himself driving back over the Rainbow Bridge, venting about the frustrating incident.

Westside Gunn Vents After Not Being Allowed Into Canada

“Disrespectful muthaf*ckas won’t let me in Canada, man. For real. Disre-f*cking-spectful, man,” he said, showing viewers paperwork reading, “ALLOWED TO LEAVE CANADA.” Westside Gunn continued, “Allowed to leave Canada. These muthaf*ckas is cr*zy, man… Find out somebody put the call in so I can’t get in the country no more, man. What’s good? That’s how you do me? That’s how you do me, Canada?”

Unfortunately, Westside Gunn is far from the first celebrity to have trouble getting into Canada. Until October of last year, 21 Savage couldn’t enter the country due to his unresolved immigration case, meaning that he couldn’t join Drake for Canadian dates on the It’s All A Blur tour. Luckily, the rapper was able to get his case squared away just in time, and performed in Toronto during the tail end of the tour. Similarly, Drizzy’s dad Dennis wasn’t allowed into Canada until last month due to legal issues. What do you think of Westside Gunn’s experience at the Canadian border? Are you surprised that he doesn’t plan to go back? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.
