May 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kendrick Lamar’s Drake diss “Not Like Us” continues to see major success, quickly becoming a fan favorite after dropping earlier this month. Arguably the most successful track of their entire lyrical battle, “Not Like Us” sees Kendrick accuse Drake of being a pedophile, coin his iconic “A minor” bar, and much more. Its significance in the viral beef has translated into streams and sales too. It broke multiple records in the weeks following its release.

“Not Like Us” debuted at No. 1 on the Hot 100 in just five days of tracking. It also moved a million units in only 12 days. It was the fastest song to do so this year, coming in ahead of hits from the likes of megastars like Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, and more. Of course, this has left fans curious just how much cash Kendrick has been able to earn with the song.

Reportedly, it generated roughly $280K in its first week and broke Drake’s record for most streams in 24 hours. The song continues to excel commercially, raking in $317K from streams alone this week, according to a new Tweet from DJ Akademiks. It’s now the second-highest-grossing song of the week. Aside from providing K-Dot with a sizable chunk of change, “Not Like Us” has also become synonymous with his explosive feud with Drake, something fans will associate with both of them for years to come.

The song has been co-signed by several of Kendrick’s high-profile peers too, including Billie Eilish, Isaiah Rashad, and more. It even inspired DaBaby to show off some of his own writing skills this week, as he delivered a praise-worthy freestyle over the track.

Juice WRLD’s Estate And Dr. Luke Sued For “Not Enough” Royalties

October 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The estate of late rapper Juice WRLD and Dr. Luke are being sued for allegedly failing to credit and properly pay one of the co-writers of the 2021 Fighting Demons track, “Not Enough.” PD Beats, born Pierre Orpheus DeJournette, claims in the suit that he hasn’t received his fair share of revenue from the song. He believes that due to his alleged contributions, he should “equally own the copyrights.”

According to DeJournette, he contributed by “writing the beats and programming the 808s.” The suit also claims that the song features his “original guitar, performance, and production.” He argues that without his contribution, the song would be “missing key elements that form the basis of the subject song’s audience appeal.” Allegedly, he was listed as a co-writer in certain cases. The suit, however, fails to disclose where. He’s pushing for the court to formally declare him a co-writer of the song, and to grant him the payment he believes he’s due.

“Defendants have released, marketed, distributed, and monetized the subject song without accrediting or providing PD Beats his proportional share of the revenue,” the suit reads. “Defendants have failed to meaningfully respond, necessitating this action.” At the time of writing, reps for Dr. Luke and Juice WRLD’s estate have yet to comment.

This isn’t the only legal battle Dr. Luke’s been wrapped up in as of late, however. Back in June, the record producer also reached a settlement with Kesha. They had been battling it out in court for years over allegations that he sexually assaulted her in 2005. “Only God knows what happened that night. As I have always said, I cannot recount everything that happened,” Kesha wrote following the settlement. Dr. Luke has maintained his innocence since the pop star originally sued him in 2014.

Corinna Kopf Earnings: How Much Does She Make On OnlyFans?

September 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The digital age has given rise to numerous platforms where creators can monetize their content, and OnlyFans is one of the most talked-about in recent times. Among the platform’s top earners is Corinna Kopf, a multifaceted internet personality who has managed to amass a significant fortune through her OnlyFans account. But just how much does she make? Let’s dive in.

Corinna Kopf isn’t just an OnlyFans model; she’s a force to be reckoned with in the digital space. Initially gaining traction as a streamer, she transitioned back to Twitch in 2022 after her stint with Facebook Gaming. As of 2023, she’s found a new streaming home on Kick. Beyond streaming, Corinna has a YouTube channel, though she posts there sporadically. Her association with YouTube sensation David Dobrik and the ‘Vlog Squad’ has also contributed to her widespread recognition.

While Corinna has multiple streams of income, it’s her OnlyFans account that has been making headlines. On her best months, she rakes in over $2 million. To put this into perspective, David Dobrik, in a TikTok video that garnered over a million views in just an hour, showcased Corinna’s monthly payouts from OnlyFans. These figures ranged from a whopping $2.3 million at their peak to $680,000 on the lower end. Dobrik’s reaction? A mix of disbelief and humor, as he exclaimed about the staggering monthly figures.

It’s worth noting that Corinna’s success on OnlyFans isn’t a recent phenomenon. Within just 48 hours of creating her account in 2021, she reported earnings of slightly over a million dollars. A couple of months later, she announced that she had made a staggering $4.2 million. The extent of her earnings is evident in her lifestyle choices, such as purchasing a $400k Ferrari, which she proudly showcased on Dobrik’s YouTube channel.

Corinna’s success hasn’t just been about amassing wealth; she’s also shown her gratitude to those who’ve supported her journey. In April 2023, she gifted David Dobrik a Ferrari, attributing the gesture to the immense exposure he provided her. This act underscores the symbiotic relationships that often exist within the influencer community, where collaborations and mutual support can lead to exponential growth for all parties involved.

The Bigger Picture

Corinna’s success story on OnlyFans is a testament to the platform’s potential for creators. While she continues to thrive, others, like OnlyFans powerhouse Amouranth, have chosen different paths, like investing in major companies while continuing their digital careers elsewhere.

In conclusion, Corinna Kopf’s earnings on OnlyFans are nothing short of impressive. Her journey underscores the potential of digital platforms to offer lucrative opportunities for those willing to innovate and adapt. As the digital landscape continues to evolve, one thing is certain: creators like Corinna will always find ways to shine and capitalize on their unique talents and offerings.

Drake Sees Massive Earnings From It’s All A Blur Tour

August 20, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Drake is set for a massive payday from his ongoing It’s All a Blur tour with 21 Savage. According to Touring Data the pair has already over $41 million from the nine shows that have publicly reported their revenue. That includes breaking the record for the highest boxscore report by a rapper in history. That came as a result of the $18.02 million that the shows at Brooklyn’s Barclays Center pulled in alone.

While revenue from individual shows can and will vary, a basic extrapolation can indicate the scope of their success. Based on the numbers currently available, the tour will make well over $200 million by the time it concludes in October. Major revenue boosts will come from the likes of the four shows in Inglewood as well as the four shows spread over San Francisco and Los Angeles. Additionally, the two-show run in late September in Toronto will bring in some serious cash. The pair of shows in Drake’s hometown were originally scheduled as the tour’s finale.

Drake Crushes It With It’s All A Blur

IT’S ALL A BLUR, @Drake
$41,195,428 Revenue ($4,577,270 avg.)
145,035 Tickets Sold (16,115 avg.)
$284.04 Average Price
9/55 Reported Shows#Update

— Touring Data (@touringdata) August 19, 2023

Of course, Drake’s first tour since 2019 was never going to be a flop. But the numbers that the Canadian rapper is pulling in are absolutely staggering. While big numbers in cities like New York and Boston are to be expected, the tour brought in nearly $4 million in Milwaukee alone. The Fiserv Forum only holds around 15,600 people and the city itself has a population of less than 600,000.

The only figures who are going to have comparable numbers to the It’s All A Blur Tour are Beyoncé (Renaissance World Tour) and Taylor Swift (Eras Tour). But even then, there’s a caveat. The Renaissance Tour is Beyoncé’s first since 2018. Furthermore, it is a truly international tour, with a major European leg before she even hit North America. Meanwhile, Swift is essentially on tour until the end of 2024. Additionally, she is performing nearly triple the concerts of Drake and Savage. We will get a clearer picture of Drake’s success as more venues report their earnings. However, it is set to be a very good year for Drizzy and company.
