Rick Ross Gets Some New Ice From Gunplay

June 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

This feud between DJ Envy and Rick Ross has been ongoing for several weeks. Both individuals host annual car shows, and Ross made an Instagram Story saying that Envy would never be on his level. The conflict began when Ross called out Envy during an appearance on Drink Champs. In response, Envy brought up Ross’ previous employment as a correctional officer, further escalating the tension between them. “I wore this today to make him feel a little more comfortable,” Envy said while wearing a correctional officer uniform to set.

Rick Ross recently engaged in more online trolling aimed at DJ Envy. This time, it was sparked by former NFL player Tony Robinson’s allegations against Envy and his business partner, Cesar Pina, regarding a real estate scam. Robinson claimed that Pina mismanaged finances. These accusations were made on social media, prompting Envy to defend himself on Instagram Live. Pina also denying any wrongdoing on his own Instagram account. During the live stream, Envy distanced himself from the allegations. In an additional rant about his issues with Ross, Envy brought up Gunplau. The pair have also had issues, ending in Gunplay sending the DJ a cease and desist letter. Now, Rick Ross has posted a video of Gunplay gifting him some new ice.

In the video captured and shared by The Shade Room, Gunplay gifts Rick Ross some new jewelry. Despite Envy bringing him up during his rants about Ross, the pair still seem to be good friends. The two are all smiles as Ross lays in bed receiving the gift. After opening it for him, Gunplay shows him the iced out chain and pendant. The video was posted by Gunplay originally, who captioned it stating the reason for the gift. “Gave my big brother a token of my appreciation for believing in me when nobody did, cared when nobody did, gave me an opportunity when nobody did,” he wrote. “I love you forever my brother thank you!!!”

Users flocked to the comments to let the world know their thoughts. “He Layin There Like My Grandma When Her Feet Swole & Say Come Gimme Some Suga,” said one comment. Another agreed, pointing out that Rick Ross looks like a mother on Mother’s Day. “He laid up in the bed, smiling like it’s Mother’s Day and his child giving him a craft he made outta macaroni. Just pride and joy,” they wrote. What do you think of the video? Make sure to sound off in the comments below to let us know. Stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news in hip-hop.

Rick Ross Upsets South Fulton Residents Due To Trashed Plaza Following Car Show

June 5, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Though his beef with DJ Envy caused a firestorm in the media leading up to his annual car and bike show, Rick Ross’ event went over relatively smoothly. While he handed out diamond chains and other luxurious prizes to winners, the multi-talent was awarded panties from patrons, which he proudly wore on his head while cruising around The Promise Land. He also gave a great performance, tapping both Gucci Mane and Meek Mill to join him on stage, much to attendees’ pleasure.

Local police have since thanked Ross for cooperating with them in making the show a success. As you may recall, he was nearly denied a permit from Fayetteville County due to parking concerns, among other things. Ultimately, though, the Biggest Boss was able to work his charm and forge an agreement with the appropriate committees. Unfortunately, he still wasn’t able to please everyone. Especially not residents of South Fulton who were impacted by a plaza in the area being trashed.

As per Hollywood Unlocked, Ross is being blamed for the mess left behind. It’s worth noting that the area is nearly three miles away from his estate. It’s believed that those who were unable to get into the rapper’s event used the plaza as a place to party. However, his attorneys have since denied any involvement from Rozay. Beer and soda bottles left behind dangerous broken glass. Cups and other forms of litter remain in the Kroger grocery store parking lot as well.

At this time, residents are calling for the former correctional officer to step up and clean after his guests – whether they made it inside the gates or not. Do you think Rick Ross should be held responsible for the South Fulton plaza’s destruction? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Rick Ross Posts Up With Panties On His Head As Annual Car Show Kicks Off At The Promise Land

June 3, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Those who purchased a ticket for Rick Ross’ Car & Bike Show were sadly disappointed to find out the rapper was denied a permit for his annual event last month. At the time, the “Purple Lamborghini” rapper made it clear that the function would unfold regardless of what Fayetteville County (or his resentful neighbours) had to say about it. Thankfully, everyone was later able to agree on acceptable terms. Now, Rozay can proceed as planned with a few parking regulations put in place to avoid catastrophe.

Today (June 3) is the big day. Ross has been happily documenting his shenanigans on Instagram for those who couldn’t make it in person. Among the many hilarious videos we’ve seen so far is one of the Mississippi-born entertainer riding around his massive property, the Promise Land, proudly showing off a pair of purple panties. Midway through the clip, he wraps the underwear around the hat on his head earning him plenty of laughs from social media.

The Annual Rick Ross Car & Bike Show is Underway

It’s set to be a stacked day in Georgia. Ross is giving out luxurious prizes, including diamond chains to owners of whips that particularly stand out to him. Apart from checking out the cars, many attendees are also looking forward to performances from Rozay himself. In addition, Gucci Mane and Lil Wayne will take the stage too. Diddy has also confirmed that he’ll be in attendance, and seeing as his new “Act Bad” single with the City Girls and Fabolous is already on pace to be the song of the summer, we wouldn’t be surprised to see him promoting it in one way or another.

As Atlanta News First reports, the former correctional officer kicked things off at 11 AM ET and plans to keep the entertainment coming until 6 PM. What other wild antics do you think we’ll see unfold at the Rick Ross Car & Bike show this afternoon? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Rick Ross Celebrates County Permit Approval Ahead Of Next Weekend’s Car Show

May 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Regardless of what officials in Fayetteville have to say, Rick Ross made it clear earlier this month that he’ll be hosting his annual car and bike show during the first weekend of June – permit approved or not. The rapper has previously held the event at his massive Promise Land estate in Georgia. However, for 2023’s festivities, his neighbours submitted a complaint requesting that he be prohibited from using his property for such matters. After some back-and-forth, it was initially declared that Ross would be denied their blessing. This resulted in him declaring his plans to run for mayor in the next election.

“It’s a private event on private property with VIPs and you’re invited. Tickets are still available online. It’s going to be a beautiful event. Shoutout to the beautiful city of Fayetteville,” the Mississippi native declared on his Instagram Story last week. Since then, it seems that he and the County Planning and Zoning Commission have come to agreeable terms. He proudly showed off a letter of approval from Director Deborah L. Bell on social media earlier this weekend.

Fayette County Grants Rick Ross Car Show Permit

“THE HATERS DEAD ,” Rozay wrote along with the exciting news. “WE UNSTOPPABLE.” One of the main concerns preventing Bell from signing the permit was traffic, which has been resolved by handing out passes to neighbours so that they can avoid the blockages. In addition, there will be 35 officers on site directing attendees around the area to ensure no problems arise. The Richer Than I Ever Been artist will be responsible for providing off-street parking and prohibited from using lighting for outdoor activities past 10 PM.

Even with a few restrictions placed on him, it still sounds as though the former correctional officer has big plans for his year’s event. Among them are live performances from the Biggest Boss himself and Gucci Mane, as well as over $300,000 in incredible prizes. Will you be attending Rick Ross’ annual car and bike show at the Promise Land next Saturday? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Belly Eyes Another Segment of the Entertainment Industry After Dropping ‘Mumble Rap 2’

May 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Belly Returns with Single and Video "American Nightmare" Produced by Hit-Boy

Belly just dropped off one of the year’s best rap albums in Mumble Rap 2. When a rapper is at his prime like this, he could be putting a takeover of the genre. Not Belly, he doesn’t want retirement but would move into a different part of entertainment.

“I don’t think I’ll ever hang up the mic in terms of doing what I love because I’ll always do it,” Belly said to Hot New Hip Hop. “I just don’t know if I want to be part of the cycle of everything anymore. It has more to do with me than it does with the industry. Obviously, everyone knows that the industry can be shady – any industry can. Once you start getting to higher levels and bigger offices… things can get merky.”

He added, “You know, I’ve been writing TV and film stuff. Getting into writing scripts. A couple of scripted podcasts.”

EXCLUSIVE: Belly explains his decision to step back from the music industry after his next two albums and what he has planned next. https://t.co/2RqrtUkszT

Belly is back! The rising XO legend has returned with his new album Mumble Rap 2. Paired with the album’s release is the music video for the single “Cocaine Spoon” featuring Rick Ross.

The new album is executive produced by Hit-Boy, so that alone lets you knwo it’s fire. Adding to the work of Belly and Hit, are features from Nav, Gucci Mane, and a special treat as the late Gil Scott-Heron appears on an interlude. The new video for “Cocaine Spoon” finishes the stories laid out in the videos for “American Nightmare” and “Ambiance.”

As the second entry in his Mumble Rap series, which he has said he only expects to make three of before rap retirement, Mumble Rap 2 aims to cement Belly’s name in discussing best lyricists in the genre. “With the first Mumble Rap I had already had a hit record and I wanted to remind people not to forget where I actually come from & that I really do this,” Belly said.

DJ Envy Gets 50 Cent Involved In Rick Ross Car Show Beef

May 22, 2023 by newhiphopnews

With both Rick Ross and DJ Envy hosting their individual car shows within the next month, a lot of friendly jabs have been taken on social media on both sides, but now The Breakfast Club co-host has brought a more serious element to the rivalry by adding 50 Cent to the conversation.

After a week of back ad forth between he and Ross, Envy posted a pic of him and Ross’ longtime foe 50 chilling together at a restaurant. Envy then quoted Drake’s “Stay Schemin” as the caption, which read, “It bothers me when the gods get to acting like the broads, Guess every team doesn’t come complete with n-ggas like ours, That’s why I see no need to compete with n-ggas like y’all,” he wrote. “[Queens Get The Money] @bransoncognac @lecheminduroi @50cent #CarShowSeason #BeigeRage.”

Ross started the rift by stating on Drink Champs that Envy was “never on my level” when it comes to car shows. Envy fired back on The Breakfast Club by talking about Ross’ permit issues for his car show slated for June 3 in Georgia.

“My car show in Memphis is still going down at the same venue, same place,” Envy said while promoting his own upcoming car shows. “It is May 28th in Memphis. We’re going to have cars from Young Dolph, 50 Cent, Key Glock and myself…and then Houston, we doing it at the same venue — we not moving — at the NRG Stadium as well. The ‘Drive Your Dreams’ Car Show, Father’s Day weekend.”
