Nicki Minaj Hints At “Pink Friday 2” Deluxe Release Date While Hyping Up A Fan-Favorite From It

August 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The Barbz can’t wait for Nicki Minaj’s third (yes, third) deluxe version of Pink Friday 2 ahead of the second leg of her world tour, which will comprise of various U.S. shows. For what it’s worth, you won’t find us complaining about new music from her, especially amid her massively successful tour. However, fans are salivating at the mouth for this Gag City Reloaded edition but might finally have an answer as to when it will come out. Moreover, the Trinidadian MC posted an Instagram update on her page confirming the inclusion of a fan-favorite track she had previewed before on social media, as well as hinting at a possible timeline for this new expanded edition’s release.

“#TheAnxietySong will be on my deluxe album,” Nicki Minaj captioned the video of her vibing out to the track “Anxiety.” “Coming real soon. PF2 #GagCityReloaded DELUXE ALBUM [pink bow emoji] we are now 10 DAYS away #GagCityPHILLY [pink bow emoji]. How many songs do you want added to the DELUXE ALBUM?” The “ten days” in question refer to the tour’s second leg kicking off in Philadelphia on September 4, with support from BIA and Skillibeng. Tyga will also join in on the fun starting on the Washington DC stop in Madison Square Garden on September 9, per the trek’s website.

Furthermore, Nicki Minaj had also announced that she will perform an updated setlist including Gag City Reloaded cuts with new wardrobe to boot. Still, she also has a lot of other big narratives to deal with, many of which remain quite murky. For example, there’s the 41-year-old’s alleged beef with Ice Spice, one that she seemed to speak on during a recent social media rant. It drew mixed reactions, but there’s nothing concrete enough to really make a final judgement call on.

Meanwhile, Nicki Minaj might also have to fight a former Barb in court after facing a slander awsuit from a fan she allegedly mistreated in various instances. Still, she reportedly has a countersuit ready to go. As such, we’ll see if any of these issues take center stage during this tour leg, or on Pink Friday 2‘s Gag City Reloaded. Be patient, Barbz… It’s almost here!

August 18, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Scott fans just realized that their dreams came true, as a recent promise he made at Fanatics Fest in New York City over the weekend will actually manifest. Moreover, if you didn’t hear already, his fan-favorite 2014 mixtape Days Before Rodeo will hit streaming services for the first time very, very soon for its tenth anniversary (today, Sunday, August 18).

Travisscott.com more info and shizzzz shsbsbsbsb IM FCKING JUMPING THRU WALLS AHHHH.” As such, fans can expect some new Days Before Rodeo material with this rerelease, and can head to his website to purchase CDs, vinyls, and merch boxes. The promo clip shows old footage from the making of DBR and its era, showing the Nike collaborator working with the likes of Metro Boomin, Young Thug, and more. In addition, it shows that Travis shows have been incredibly rowdy for over a decade straight, in case anyone had any doubts about that.

Elsewhere, Travis Scott was also announced as Rey Mysterio’s new tag team partner in the WWE. “Are you guys ready for me to introduce my latest tag team partner?” the wrestler asked the Fanatics Fest crowd. “Are you ready? Alright. This man has shaped the landscape for hip-hop. He is an icon. He is also on ‘SICKO MODE.’ He is a rapper, producer, songwriter, and Grammy-nominated. Let’s give it up for the highest in the room, my newest tag team partner, Travis Scott!”

With all this in mind, Cactus Jack fans must feel ecstatic right now. If you want to catch Travis Scott live, he’s got some South American dates coming up if you’re in the area or can travel. Also, if you see Future and Metro Boomin on tour, there’s a good chance that the Houston superstar will show up as a special guest. Nevertheless, join us in our nostalgic indulgences and revisit Days Before Rodeo when it drops in a few days.

Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign Fans Question “Vultures 2” Release Date After It’s Deleted

August 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Yesterday, a message on the YZY website seemingly confirmed the release date of Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign’s highly anticipated project, Vultures 2. “VULTURES 2 COMING AUGUST 2ND,” the message read, leaving fans eager to hear what’s to come. Many were also skeptical about the announcement, however, as it wasn’t the first release date they’d heard. The album was originally slated for release in March, then May, then put on hold indefinitely.

“I’ll believe it when I see it,” one fan said on X upon reading the news. “Believe at your own risk,” another urged. Now, it appears as though these commenters could have been onto something, as the announcement has been wiped from the YZY site. Of course, this doesn’t necessarily mean that Vultures 2 won’t arrive tomorrow, but it’s certainly managed to fuel fans’ suspicions.

Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign’s Vultures 2 Announcement Wiped From YZY Website

UPDATE: Kanye & Ty Dolla $ign’s ‘VULTURES 2’ release date has been removed… https://t.co/lY8BP9vBA2 pic.twitter.com/Nfod7fvFKy

— NFR Podcast (@nfr_podcast) July 31, 2024

With that being said, some fans were more hopeful than ever that the duo would stay on schedule this time around. After all, the cover art has already been revealed, and they just announced a listening party for the project in Taiwan. The listening party was first announced late last month and is supposed to take place on August 25. Needless to say, the now-nonexistent announcement has them confused. Fortunately, fans won’t have to wait too much longer to find out whether or not they were serious about the release date. For now, it looks like things could go either way.

Following the release of Vultures 2, Ye and Ty are expected to unveil a third joint album, Vultures 3. At the time of writing, a release date for that is nowhere in sight. What do you think of the Vultures 2 release date announcement being removed from the Yeezy website? Do you think this means they won’t be dropping tomorrow? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Kanye West & Ty Dolla Sign Announce “Vultures 2” Release Date

July 31, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Fans have been eager to hear Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign’s album Vultures 2 for quite a while, and finally, it looks like they won’t have to wait much longer. Today, a message on the Yeezy website revealed the project’s release date. “VULTURES 2 COMING AUGUST 2ND,” it reads simply. Of course, this news has prompted mixed reactions from fans, as they’ve been let down in the past.

Originally, the sequel to Vultures was slated for release in March, which came and went with no album in sight. In April, Ye said it would be dropping in May, which also didn’t happen. It’s to be seen whether or not the duo will stick to their schedule this time around, though social media users aren’t too convinced they will.

Vultures 2 Should Arrive On August 2

“I’ll believe it when I see it,” one X user says in response to the news. “Believe at your own risk,” someone else jokes. While many are hesitant to get their hopes up, others can’t help it. After all, Ye and Ty just announced a Vultures 2 listening party in Taiwan, had Adin Ross preview their Future collab on stream and more. Oddly enough, the announcement also comes just weeks after Ye told Rich The Kid that he was retiring. “I am retiring from professional music. Not sure what else to do,” he wrote in a text, which RTK later posted on social media.

Fans weren’t necessarily buying that claim either, which appears to have been the right move considering his latest announcement. What do you think of Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign announcing that their eagerly anticipated project Vultures 2 is slated for release on August 2? Do you believe them or not? Are you looking forward to hearing the album when it finally drops? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Big Sean Drops Official Release Date For New Album Despite Leak

July 18, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Bad week for Big Sean. The rapper decided to address his haters on a new freestyle, and wound get getting his album leaked as a result. A Kanye West fan interpreted Sean’s bars as a diss towards his favorite artist, and leaked most of Big Sean’s new tracks out of spite. The rapper has taken the leaks in stride, though. A day after the unfortunate incident, Sean dropped an official trailer for his new album, titled Better Me Than You. Fans were treated to cool visuals, a snippet of a song, and finally, a proper release date.

The album trailer sees the camera zoom in on Big Sean’s eye, only to reveal a world of color and trippy shapes. The instrumental that accompanies these visuals is similarly colorful, though the rapper isn’t spitting over it. The album’s official title is confirmed by a neon sign that appears at the very end of the trailer. Better Me Than You had been thrown around as a possible title previously. That being said, the aforementioned leak was released under the name Feelings and Random Thots. It’s safe to say Sean chose the better title. The rapper confirmed the release on Twitter, writing: “album August 9th.”

Big Sean’s Better Me Than You Will Drop August 9th

Big Sean spoke at length about the difficulty he had recording Better Me Than You. It’s his first album in four years, and it coincided with his decision to stop drinking. “I’ve been having a hard f*cking time,” he told fans via Instagram Live. Been in [the studio] trying to finish this album. I’m tired of overthinking… I stopped drinking in 2022 ’cause that sh*t was f*cking me up.” Despite the struggles he’s had, Big Sean maintains that the new album contains some of his “best music” to date. “It’s so many different sides of me,” he told viewers. “[This album] really represents what the f*ck I’ve been going through for these past couple of years.”

The leak could not have been easy for the rapper to deal with. The person who leaked the album claimed that Kanye West urged him to do it, but there’s nothing to substantiate these claims. Despite this display of pettiness, Big Sean is keeping a positive outlook. The internet is on his side, with many believing that he’s due to win after being overshadowed by the likes of Drake and Kendrick Lamar. The rapper actually addressed the leaks on Twitter, taking a light-hearted approach. He teased his upcoming single with The Alchemist, and joked about rushing the rollout to avoid more leaks. “Might as well start droppin, before they leak it all, got damn [crying-laughing emoji].”

Blueface’s Supposed Release From Jail Isn’t Guaranteed

July 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Several months ago, according to The Source, controversial California rapper Blueface was looking at a release date of July 2. His entry into the L.A. County Jail stems from his previous probation violation after a club assault case in 2021. However, according to XXL, there it is not a sure thing anymore. Santa Clarita, California’s Deputy District Attorney Tatiana Chahoian, put out a statement not too long ago, and the language used certainly suggests a lot of uncertainty. “Long story short – Blueface’s release date has not been determined as of yet. He has a court date for sentencing on the probation violation on July 29, 2024 and on that date, the judge will determine how much time, if any, he will be serving.”

With that being said, it seems as if prison time is more of a guarantee over his release date. Because of all of the previous predictions and rumors, this is obviously an unfortunate turn for the hitmaker. Not only for himself, but for his family and loved ones as well. Chrisean Rock, his on again off again partner and baby momma, has expressed how much she has been wanting him to come home as of late.

Blueface May Have An Answer On His Release In A Couple Of Weeks

— FirstNews Music | Inewsmusic (@FirstNewsMusic_) July 12, 2024

Blueface’s father is also hoping for good news, as just a few days ago he shared a video asking for prayers. “Free Blueface July 29th. I’m sitting over here hoping and praying that they release my son in the next 20 days with time served. For all you Blueface fans, keep him in your prayers”, he said. “I’m also praying that Chrisean gets released the same day as he does, so that everybody can have a new start”. She is also currently behind bars and has been since June. Her arrest surrounds a 2022 incident in Oklahoma in which she had an active warrant.

What are your thoughts on Blueface’s possible release date update from his probation violation? What do you think will be the result on July 29 based on the language used? Will Chrisean Rock be out around the same time as well? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Blueface and Chrisean Rock. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Mustard Reveals The Release Date For Eagerly Awaited Album “Faith Of A Mustard Seed”

July 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Mustard’s year is currently defined by the success of his collaboration with Kendrick Lamar on “Not Like Us”. The Drake diss track is breaking records, running the charts, and being dubbed as the song of the summer by many. In addition to helping claim Kung Fu Kenny the crown in the beef, his appearance in the accompanying music video is also another huge W. In just three days, the visuals have accumulated over 34 million views in just three days. While all of this has really helped out Mustard in 2024, do not forget that this producer has been killing it years before this. Pretty soon, Mustard is going to notch another feather in his cap when he drops his new album this Friday.

Shortly before Lamar held The Pop Out, the hitmaking expert announced Faith Of A Mustard Seed. He did so by dropping a trailer that included some behind the scenes footage of him and potential features working in the studio. Since then, fans have received a handful of extra goodies about the album. One of them is that Mustard is going to be rapping for the first time on any of his projects. Even though Mustard never had any intentions of laying down bars, he felt that had to change. “I’ve been behind the boards so long that nobody has ever heard my side of things. When it comes to anything. Family or friends… I think it was just the time”.

Mustard Is Dropping His Album This Friday

Prior to this news, we were given “Parking Lot” featuring Travis Scott, which is presumably the lead single. It ended a near six-year drought without a La Flame and Mustard track, with the last one being “Dangerous World” in 2018 with YG. There is some hype surrounding the fact that “Not Like Us” could be the real first look. However, that is all pure estimation right now. Mustard shared the album artwork on X earlier today as well the drop date. “PRAY FOR ME 7.12 #FOAMS ”.

What are your thoughts on Mustard dropping Faith Of A Mustard Seed this Friday, July 12? Is this a genius move by the famous California producer? Who do you want to see featured on the album and why? Do you think “Not Like Us” and/or another Kendrick Lamar feature will be on it? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Mustard. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Kendrick Lamar’s Rumored Album Release Date Could Actually Be A Subtle Drake Diss

July 6, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this week, Kendrick Lamar unleashed his eagerly anticipated “Not Like Us” music video, and unsurprisingly, it’s been a major success. The video has already racked up more than 23 million views on YouTube, prompted countless reactions from fans, and more. Social media users have been hard at work dissecting the explosive visual, identifying any potential hints at what’s to come. A jacket Kendrick wore in the video, for example, has sparked rumors about his next album.

The jacket in question was believed to feature the date “8/8/2024,” which many thought could be the release date of an upcoming project. It was later confirmed, however, that the jacket actually says “S/S/2024.” Now, it’s speculated that this was yet another subtle jab at Drake.

Fans Look For Clues In Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” Video

The jacket, as well as a scarf Kendrick sported at other points in the video, is from Jamaican-British designer Martine Rose’s Spring/Summer collection. Fans think this could have been a reference to Kendrick’s digs at Drake’s accent and use of Toronto slang. This is unconfirmed, though it wouldn’t come as a shock considering all the subtle jabs Kendrick’s taken at Drizzy in recent months.

As for the actual release date for Kendrick’s next album, it’s still up in the air, though some suspect that it’ll arrive sooner rather than later. During a recent chat with TMZ, for instance, The Alchemist shared his prediction that the project will drop sometime this year. “I think he’s gonna drop an album this year,” he told the outlet, “I don’t think he has to… I think he will, just cuz he can.” What do you think of Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” music video? What about rumors that his jacket featured the release date of his next album? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

BLXST Announces Release Date And Title For Anticipated Debut Album

June 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

BLXST has been grinding for a long time. The rapper has been in the game since 2014, but he really broke out with the single “Chosen” in 2020. It’s been all uphill from there. BLXST’s smooth sound is partially indebted to G-funk, but there’s an eccentricity to it that makes him stand out. It’s the reason he’s been able to link up with legends like Ty Dolla Sign and Kendrick Lamar. After years of putting out mixtapes, though, BLXST is finally ready to make the jump. His debut studio album is imminent.

The rapper broke the news on X (formerly Twitter) on June 27. He posted an album teaser, along with a title and release date. The teaser treats fans to a montage of BLXST riding around different parts of Los Angeles. It’s dramatic, like all album teasers are, but it’s effective. At the end of the clip, the title of the album flashes onscreen: I’ll Always Come Find You. It’s a provocative title, especially given the pensive imagery of BLSXT in a car. The album will drop July 19, meaning fans won’t have to wait long to hear a grand statement from the rapper at least.

BLXST’s Debut Album Is Due Out This Summer

BLXST’s reliance on Los Angeles makes sense given his back catalog. The rapper has always made his home, and the history of said home, part of his lyrical focus. He explained his reasoning for doing so in a 2023 interview with Complex. “I want to be able to put people in a good mood,” he explained. “I want people to listen to my music while they’re with their family or while they’re barbecuing in the backyard. Want them to feel like they’re in L.A.” He’s certainly managed to do that with tapes like Before You Go and No Love Lost.

In the same interview, BLXST predicted a sea change in LA culture. “I feel like it’s healing,” he opined. “Like, the younger generation is understanding it’s bigger than that. We’re trying to feed our families and create generational wealth. So there’s strength in numbers, and I think we’re understanding that right now.” His gut feeling proved to be accurate. BLXST’s debut album will come out after Kendrick Lamar’s “Pop Out” show, which has seemingly breathed new life into the city. The rapper has the attention of the music world. Let’s hope he makes it count.
