Chief Keef Claims His Account Was Hacked After Tweeting “Trump 2024”

by

Chief Keef is a polarizing figure. He’s considered by many to be one of the most influential rappers of the 2010s. He also has encountered legal problems for the entirety of his career. Chief Keef is unapologetic about who he is, and that’s part of why fans have continued to rock with his music. The rapper’s recent political statements, however, have rubbed those same fans the wrong way. Keef posted a photo of him standing at a podium. He tweeted “Trump 2024” alongside the photo. Bizarrely, the rapper claimed that his account was hacked mere hours later.

Chief Keef took to Instagram to alert his fans about the hack. “Twitter is hacked,” he wrote over a black background. “Management.” The timing of the hack is strange, especially given that the statement about the hack does not address what the hacker posted. It’s unclear if the “Trump 2024” tweet is being laid at the feet of the hacker, or something Chief Keef claims. This is not, however, the first time the rapper has publicly discussed Donald Trump. Following Trump’s arrest in August 2023, Chief Keef posted an edit of the former President throwing up gang signs.

Chief Keef Hyped Up Donald Trump’s Arrest Back In 2023

The rapper proceeded to praise Trump, and claim that he will do well in prison. “Nah my boy in dat b*tch bangin on dem folks,” he wrote over the photoshopped image. “I know whatever deck he on he good in the hood for sure he finna run the prison. That boy finna be eating like a MF all da Blacks finna have my boy back.” This was a far cry from the confusion Chief Keef expressed over Trump in 2018. The Windy City legend was asked what he thought about Kanye West’s endorsement of Trump, and he claimed he didn’t understand the appeal. “I am not a fan of Trump,” the rapper told Complex. “I don’t understand that connection, but Kanye does what he wants.”

Chief Keef is close with another pro-Trump rapper, Sexyy Red. Red explained her political stance during a recent appearance on the podcast This Weekend. “I like Trump,” she stated. “Yeah, they support him in the hood. We need him back because, baby, them checks. Them stimulus checks. Trump, we miss you.” Chief Keef has not officially gone on record as being a Trump supporter prior to his recent tweet. Given the claim that his account was hacked, though, it remains to be seen whether the tweet came from the rapper himself. We will have to wait and see what Keef has to say.

Tariq Nasheed Believes Sexyy Red Is Being Promoted By White Supremacists

by

Tariq Nasheed, Detroit born film director best known for his Hidden Colors film series, has an interesting perspective on Sexyy Red. In particular, it has to do with her pretty meteoric rise to fame. He sat down with Vlad TV to discuss why he feels that the White supremacists are the ones pushing her music. Essentially, Tariq firmly believes this community is aiming to perpetuate a negative view of Black women, but also the race at large. This then allows the justification for harm done (SA, missing people, etc.) when it does happen. Furthermore, Tariq goes on to point out artists similar to Sexyy Red like Latto, Nicki Minaj, Cardi B, GloRilla, and etc. are so plentiful and that there is no balance of “sisters”.

Here, Nasheed refers to the Lauryn Hills, Queen Latifahs, and MC Lytes of the world of the 1990s who were creating this equilibrium with showy names like Lil’ Kim and Foxy Brown. In today’s game we people like Little Simz, Rapsody, and Tierra Whack. But Nasheed’s point is that artists like Lauryn Hill and Latifah were just as big as Kim, whereas the audiences for the ones we listed do not have that same draw. During the interview, Vlad has an opposing view on who is spreading Sexyy Red’s material.

Tariq Nasheed Wants A “Balanced Depiction” Of Black Women

He brought up a past interview with Fredo Bang about Red to Nasheed to explain his side. Vlad’s argument derives from the point that Bang made about how Red is a “spirit animal” for women of all kinds. Her music allows for those who work at jobs where you have to be professional, to be freer and embrace their sexuality. Overall, both arguments are extremely compelling, and it really gets you thinking about how certain material affects everyone societally.

What are your thoughts on Tariq Nasheed’s explanation for Sexyy Red’s promotion? Whose side of the debate are you on and why? Is this a major topic that needs to be focused on more socially and musically speaking? 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 Sexyy Red. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

André 3000 Reveals Why He Believes Most New Rappers Sound The Same

by

André 3000 appeared on the latest episode of LeBron James and Maverick Carter’s The Shop alongside Sexyy Red and others. They touched on a variety of topics, including André’s New Blue Sun and why he has yet to release a solo rap album. He and Sexyy Red also talked about how haters motivate them. That conversation sparked social media memes. Fans of André started “hating” on him so he could release a rap album.

The panel also touched on one of the most common critiques of modern popular hip-hop: it all sounds the same. Older fans lament the change in sound and pine for the days where hip-hop sounded the way it did a generation ago. Thanks in part to the rise of SoundCloud and the explosion in popularity of artists like Future and Young Thug in the mid-2010s, hip-hop evolved. André explained why he thinks so many new artists sound like what’s already popular, and his answer was a straightforward one.

André 3000 On Why He Believes Many New Rappers Sound The Same

“If we were to come out as OutKast when we thought we were ready, we wouldn’t be around today ’cause we sounded like everybody else. We sounded like who we were listening to,” said André 3000. “Now, I don’t think artists have time to cultivate themselves, so a lot of artists sound the same. You can quickly jump on a microphone — it’s awesome because you’re getting an immediacy, but you don’t get time to hone who you are […] Even Future came up in the Dungeon. I know Ray has Future recordings where Future sounds different; Future was rapping. It takes a minute. Even 2 Chainz. Like, Tity Boi was rapping.”

André 3000s’s critique of the artist development process, or lack thereof, is not an uncommon one. TikTok trends have made it the easiest it’s ever been to become famous. There are limited opportunities for development before they’re thrust onto a national scale. Rappers like J. Cole or Kendrick Lamar performed on small stages before getting their mainstream moment. Lamar infamously performed at Best Buy in Compton once. That opportunity for development no longer exists in how it did for rappers from their era. Future and 2 Chainz, the two rappers André cited, underwent dramatic changes in their approaches to music before becoming popular. If they came out today, they might not have had the chance because of how easy it is to release music and find fame. André’s perspective is an interesting one, and may provide an explanation for the way hip-hop continues to develop.

Sexyy Red Says She is Working on a Joint Album with Chief Keef

Sexyy Red and Chief Keef Drop Anticipated Video for "Bow Bow Bow (F My Baby Dad)"

Sexyy Red has revealed that she will drop a joint album with Chief Keef. Red kept mystery in their relationship, stating, “That’s my boo.”

“We dropping an album soon,” Red said. “Yeah, for sure. We’ve been working.

“We just be on some money shit. Some car shit, fast cars. Fuck these hoes. Buy some clothes. and keep your hair done.”

Earlier this year, Sexyy Red and Chief Keef released the highly-anticipated video for their collaboration “Bow Bow Bow (F My Baby Dad),” a standout track from Sexyy’s acclaimed Hood Hottest Princess (Deluxe) project. Known for her advocacy for her child’s father, Sexyy takes a new approach in this track, encouraging mothers everywhere to leave their “hating a**” baby daddies and enjoy themselves. Chief Keef mirrors Sexyy’s energy, expressing similar disdain for his baby mama.

Directed by NSTY, the video features Sexyy and Chief Keef heading to “The Corry Show,” a playful spin on the infamous Maury Povich show, to prove that Keef is her baby daddy.

The video also marks the beginning of Sexyy’s new era as the hood’s hottest presidential candidate. The intro shows Sexyy informing constituents of her #MakeAmericaSexyyAgain campaign platform, promising enticing policies like free food stamps.

Sexyy recently announced her upcoming “Sexyy Red 4 President Tour,” a 26-city tour with support from Hunxho, Loe Shimmy, BlakeIANA, and a surprise special guest. The tour continues Sexyy’s streak of buzzworthy performances at Governor’s Ball and Roots Picnic, along with upcoming international festival appearances at Wireless Festival, Rokslide, Rolling Loud Europe, and more.

The tour follows the release of Sexyy’s In Sexyy We Trust mixtape, the follow-up to her 2023 debut Hood Hottest Princess, which includes the Billboard top 20 hit “Get It Sexyy” and the top 50 love anthem “U My Everything” ft. Drake. If you’ve never been to a Sexyy Red show, it’s a must-add to your summer bucket list, with crowds expected to twerk on top of their seats to “SkeeYee” and “Get It Sexyy!”

Earlier this week, Chief Keef, Sexyy Red, and King Von’s sister Kayla B made one big love triangle.

Sexyy Red hit social media, seemingly confirming she was romantically involved with Chief Keef, showing off his chain, including putting it in her underwear. “We got together now,” she wrote, tagging Keef. Keef and Red have become frequent collaborators.

In response, Kayla shared images with Sosa, and kicking off the drama, which Red responded “How I taste?”

The two then shared images of moments with Chief Keef, seemingly right after each other as he was in the same clothes. Kayla B also shared intimate moments with Keef writing, “First one to get pregnant wins.”

You can see the dueling posts below.

Are Sexyy Red And Chief Keef Working On A Joint Album?

Sexyy Red and Chief Keef have shown great chemistry on their collaborations, which include Sexyy’s “F My Baby Dad” and Keef’s “Grape Trees.” In fact, their chemistry is so good that some fans interpreted selfies taken by Sexyy of the two to mean they’re dating (those photos ended up being used in the “F My Baby Dad” video).

While the two may not be an official couple, fans certainly want to hear more of them together — and there is good news on that front, as Sexyy teased the possibility of a joint album between them coming in the near future. While backstage at Wireless Festival in the UK, Sexyy was asked about this possible album, and she answered in the positive, “Yeah, we dropping an album soon… We be working.” She also gave an overview of the content fans can expect from it: “We just be on some money sh*t, some car sh*t, fast cars, f*ck these hoes, buy some clothes, and keep your hair done.”

A fondness for the above subjects isn’t the only thing they share in common, though. Both have seen recent troubles with their planned tours, with Keef postponing his tour the day of its launch for medical reasons and Sexyy insisting that her tour is being sabotaged by nefarious entities. Not for nothing, she said as much as Ticketmaster and Live Nation are being sued by the US Department of Justice for operating a monopoly over the touring space.

Hmmmmm. In any case, we certainly hope to hear more about this album, because it sounds like it’ll be a lot of fun.

Sexyy Red Claims She Has A Collab Album With Chief Keef On The Way

by

Sexyy Red is not slowing down. She’s become one of the hottest stars in hip-hop over the last few years. Part of the reason is her chemistry with established stars like Drake and Nicki Minaj. That being said, Red seems to have the most in common with Chief Keef. The two rappers linked up on the 2023 hit “Ghetto Princess,” and have gotten along famously ever since. Now, it seems, Red and Keef are capitalizing on their chemistry by recording an entire joint album.

Sexyy Red dropped the bombshell of an announcement during a recent interview at Wireless Festival. “That’s my boo,” she said, when asked about Chief Keef. “We droppin’ an album soon. Yeah, for sure. We be workin.” Red assured fans that she already has multiple records with Keef in the stash. When asked what she could say about the joint album, Red broke down what the overall vibe is going to be. “We just be on some money sh*t, some cars sh*t, f*ck these h*es, buy some clothes and keep your hair done,” she asserted.

Sexyy Red And Chief Keef Have Multiple Collabs

A joint album between Sexyy Red and Chief Keef has been a long time coming. The two have been in each other’s orbit for years, and even sparked dating rumors back in June. Kayla B, the sister of the late King Von, posted photos of herself kissing Keef. Sexyy Red responded by posting photos of herself in bed with the Chicago rapper’s jewelry. Despite the rumors, Red maintains that she and Keef have more of a sibling relationship. “Dis just my favorite brudda,” she wrote alongside photos of her and Keef on IG.

That being said, Sexyy Red led fans to question whether there was something more serious going on between her and Chief Keef. Lord Jamar recently went off on Red during an interview, claiming that she looked “icky and hot.” The St. Louis rapper clapped back at Jamar by writing “Ask @chieffkeeffsossa do I stink.” Regardless of what the situation is between the two rappers, their ability to make catchy songs is undeniable. They have four collabs under their belt, and it sounds like they’re going to have a lot more soon.

Sexyy Red & Chief Keef Have A Joint Album On The Way

by

Sexyy Red and Chief Keef are working on a joint album. The “SkeeYee” rapper shared the news in an interview with Viper magazine the Wireless Festival in London this past weekend. When asked if she and Keef are “love interests” or just “musical friends,” Sexxy called him “her boo.” She added that they were releasing an album soon “We’ve been working,” she said. She then confirmed that they already have several songs finished.

Sexyy Red and Chief Keef have done a few songs together already, coming together for several songs, including “Damn Shorty,” “Grape Trees” and “Bow Bow Bow (F My Baby Dad).” The latter track’s video also starred Keef as the father of Sexyy’s child in a skit parodying the Maury Show. The video was a source of controversy, as Sexyy was shown twerking on Keef in the video while pregnant.

A post shared by Viper Magazine (@vipermagazine)

Sexyy posted intimate photos of her and Keef on social media, although at the time, she insisted they were just friends. Shortly after, Sexyy and Keef were embroiled in a love triangle with the late King Von‘s sister Kayla B, which was sparked by Kayla taunting Sexyy with a picture of her kissing Keef. Sexyy later revealed that the whole saga was a promotional tactic. It worked, as people talked about it. The duo were also spotted at the BET Awards together earlier in July.

Sexyy Red and Chief Keef have both had good years. Sexyy released In Sexyy We Trust, her second album. Chief Keef released the long-awaited Almighty So 2 after a series of delays. The album has received praise from fans of Keef. Sexyy Red is due to go on tour beginning in August. However, rumors about low ticket sales have circulated, though she has denied those and plans to go on the road as scheduled. Considering Chief Keef’s history with releasing albums on schedule, it might be a while before this duo’s work comes out, but maybe he’ll make an exception for his new friend.

André 3000 Wants LL Cool J And Others To ‘Rap Until You Die,’ But He Still Isn’t A Fan Of It Past 40-Years-Old

by

In the teaser clip of The Shop, André 3000 admitted to using critiques from haters as fuel.

Following André 3000’s November 2023 interview with GQ, his tank runneth over. To this day, he continues to receive pushback regarding his “rapping over 40” comment. So, during his appearance on The Shop he addressed that and latest critic of his stance, LL Cool J.

“To me, I feel like if it’s in you,” he said. “Cause I got homies my age and older than me that still rap. So if it’s in you, you should rap until you die. You should perform until you die. But what I’m saying is, what it takes for me to do it, I’m always looking for the next. I’m not trying to uphold a thing that I’ve done before.”

Despite his perceived indifference to making an official return to rap, he hasn’t completely turned away from the possibility. “Of course, I have things to say now,” he said. “But if I can’t say them in a fresh, innovative way, if I feel like I’m just hanging onto the same flow that I used to do, it’s not enough for me. So I can’t talk for another rapper about what they doing. I just say, “Man, go for it. If it’s in you.’”

Sexyy Red Teases New Song With Dream Collaborator Tyler, The Creator

by

Sexyy Red is on the rise. The rapper has linked up with some of the biggest names in the genre, including Chief Keef, Nicki Minaj and Drake. These collabs have resulted in crossover smashes, but Sexyy has yet to realize her dream collab. Or should we say, has yet to release it. The rapper was asked which artist she would like to work with if given the chance during Wireless Festival. She not only named the artist, but she told fans that the collab had already taken place.

“I did my dream collab, finally,” Sexyy Red told the Wireless reporter. “Tyler, The Creator.” It’s hard to imagine what a blending of the two rappers’ styles would sound like. That being said, Sexyy Red has made a point of emphasizing her artistry recently. She discussed her process, and the hate that she’s gotten, during an appearance on HBO’s The Shop. It was here that she admitted to having confidence issues. “I [get] nervous meeting people because I’m a shy person,” she explained. “And I [didn’t] know [what] he was going to be like. I don’t [care] what people think about me.”

Sexyy Red Met Tyler, The Creator At A Drake Concert

Controversy is something that Tyler, The Creator is familiar with. Similar to Sexyy Red, Tyler was subject to criticism and backlash early in his career to his lyrical subject matter. It’s easy to see why Sexyy Red feels such a kinship with the “EARFQUAKE” rapper. Sexyy Red did not reveal when her collaboration with Tyler, The Creator would be released. Both Sexyy and Tyler are coming off recent releases, and Tyler is not expected to drop again until 2025. Hopefully we get the untitled collab sooner rather than later, though.

Sexyy Red and Tyler, The Creator have known each other for a while. The two actually met during Drake’s Los Angeles concert in 2023. Red was the opener, and she got the chance to pose for photos with Tyler after her set. The former posted the photos, as well as a video of her and Tyler hugging, on Twitter. “My dreams came true,” she wrote in the caption. The photos went semi-viral, and the Odd Future rapper poked fun at himself as a result. “Been hiding it but cat is out the bag,” he wrote on Instagram. “I got a bbl this is not photoshop.” The comment proved to be fitting, since Drake would eventually collab with Sexyy Red over the “BBL Drizzy” beat.

Andre 3000 Claims He Doesn’t Remember His Iconic Source Awards Speech

by

Andre 3000 dropped several gems during his recent appearance on The Shop. He discussed taking hatred from others and using it to fuel creativity. He also talked about his experiments with jazz, and how it’s freed him up to do whatever he wants. The most fascinating revelation, though, was when the show’s other guest, Sexyy Red, asked about his iconic speech at the 1995 Source Awards. Andre 3000 reflected on the speech, before admitting that he doesn’t really remember what he said.

Sexyy Red was born in 1998, so she inquired about the intention of the speech during their Shop talk. Andre 3000 told the younger rapper that his memory of being onstage was hazy. “I don’t even remember the whole thing,” he admitted. What he did remember, however, was the sense of frustration he felt in the years leading up to the Source Awards. “N**gas hating on the South at that point,” he said. “I remember being really angry and driven because we’ve been creating this music, man. We’ve been in the Dungeon. And we just felt like, ‘Y’all don’t get it.’”

Andre 3000 Recalls Being Extremely Nervous On Stage

The reason why Andre 3000 struggles to remember his speech was because he was extremely nervous while giving it. “It was not planned,” he admitted. “It looked brave, but I was nervous as a motherf*cker. I was just angry, man.” Three Stacks, who was one half of Outkast at the time, felt that the South was not being afforded the same respect that New York was. Further adding to the frustration was the fact that both Andre and Big Boi were fans of the NY sound. “We love New York,” he said. “We grew up on all New York music, man. I just felt like, I don’t know, it just came out. And I just said that.”

Andre 3000’s speech has since been lionized by fans. It’s a classic moment in both Source and Southern hip-hop history. It was so prominent, in fact, that Outkast used audio from the speech on their 1998 song “Chonkyfire.” The phrase that Andre 3000 uttered towards the end of his speech has become a rallying cry of sorts for the entire South. They had something to say, and so did Three Stacks. Even if he doesn’t remember it clearly.
