Maino Says Hitmaka’s Lying About His Infamous Slap

by

Maino says he did slap Hitmaka during an altercation in 2008 and that it “straightened [Hitmaka] out a little bit.” Maino discussed the incident during an interview on Way Up with Angela Yee after Hitmaka claimed the slap never actually happened. When Yee played audio of Hitmaka denying it occurred, Maino struggled to understand why he would even bring the topic up.

“Berg, why you even speaking about this issue?” Maino said. “We’re talking over 10 years [ago]. It’s not relevant. Why you taking time to make up these stories?” He added: “All that’s cap. And that’s my issue. Why you even talking about this? Anytime I’m doing an interview [and] they mention that, I downplay it … I just seen him last year. I ain’t on nothing. We way past that. Why you even speaking about that?”

Maino continued: “And not to mention, not only are you speaking about it, but if you’re gonna talk about it, at least say the truth! We all was in a different place back then. And I did a lot of stuff back then. I had a lot of skirmishes and issues with a lot of people, but we got past that … You brought that up and you’re not even telling the truth. You’re making it seem like—you’re talking about I’m opening up for you. It’s all cap.” The denial from Hitmaka stems from an interview with DJ Akademiks. In previous years, he admitted that his doing “some dumb sh*t” led to the beef in the first place.

Jada Pinkett Smith says that Will Smith helped repair their marriage when he slapped Chris Rock at the Academy Awards in 2022. She made the comments while discussing her relationship with Will during an event in New York on Monday as caught by Variety. Despite recently revealing that they have been separated for years, Jada says that when Will stood up for her at the ceremony, she decided to ride with him.

“When I was sitting at the Oscars, it clicked in. As soon as I was like, ‘Oh snap, you hit Chris?’” she recalled. “I was like, I’m riding with you. I didn’t come into this place as your wife, but I’m leaving here as your wife because we got a storm we’re going to have to deal with together. I am not gonna leave your side.”

That’s still my man.” She further referred to Will as her “dude” and “right hand” while describing them as “life partners.”

Jada has been discussing her relationship with Will Smith in various interviews while promoting her new memoir, Worthy. Will eventually responded to the various revelations over the weekend in an email to the New York Times. “When you’ve been with someone for more than half your life, a sort of emotional blindness sets in,” Smith wrote. “And you can all too easily lose your sensitivity to their hidden nuances and subtle beauties.” Be on the lookout for further updates on Will and Jada’s relationship on HotNewHipHop.

DDG Claims Two Men Slapped Him After Breaking Into His Home, Shares Footage

by

DDG ran into some bad luck in his home the other day, or rather, he at least wasn’t subjected to a whole lot worse. Still, it wasn’t very fun for him to be woken up in the middle of the night with a slap by two pranksters, who broke into his home. Fortunately, it seems like they didn’t harm anyone else, steal anything, or put the rapper’s life any further in danger. All in all, especially given how he talked about it, it seems like this was all a big clout chase that took things way too far. The former YouTuber MC took to social media to vent briefly about the situation, and also to share alleged security footage of the incident.

“Whoever you are, I don’t know what type of sick game you think you playing,” he began. “I don’t know if you think it’s cool to sneak in my house and put your hands on me as a joke. It’s not funny.” Then, footage shows the two individuals slapping DDG in his bed and running out of the room. Afterwards, he wakes up, grabs a weapon, checks the area, and turns on the light when he sees it’s all clear.

DDG Slapped In The Middle Of The Night During Break-In

However, it’s not like the Michigan native is completely out of luck as of late. This incident comes after some big recent wins for DDG, whether that concerns his personal life or his career. For example, he recently opened up Gunna’s sold-out show at Barclays Center in New York on Saturday (September 9). With hits like “Moonwalking in Calabasas,” the 25-year-old got the crowd ready while also probably introducing himself to a lot of new listeners.

Meanwhile, his relationship with Halle Bailey is as strong as ever, and continues to be a big source of joy in their lives. Sure, they have their fair share of haters, but who doesn’t in the celebrity world? All we can hope for is that this animosity stays online and doesn’t invade his home again.

Blueface’s Son Pushes His Face Away In New Clip

by

In a clip recently shared on social media, Blueface’s son Javaughn is seen slapping his father’s face away while they shop for shoes. The rapper seems taken aback by the gesture before laughing it off and saying, “That’s a crip right there.” The young boy is one of Blueface’s two children shared with Jaidyn Alexis. He has an additional little one on the way with Chrisean Rock, who he’s been publicly beefing with lately. Viewers in the comments section are sharing all kinds of speculation as to why the boy is so fed up with his father.

There’s been a great deal of drama between Chrisean and Blueface throughout her pregnancy, with both artists taking shots at each other online. Most recently, Blueface posted screenshots of some questionable text messages exchanged between the two of them. Blueface also recently appeared in court facing a robbery charge. A woman alleged that Blueface stole her phone after her fan encounter with Chrisean turned sour. She further alleged that Blueface kicked her while she was on the ground after Chrisean punched her in the face. Blueface was also recently charged with attempted murder for a 2022 shooting incident.

Blueface’s Children

Blueface has been spending more time with the mother of his first two children amid his drama with Chrisean. Recently, he took to social media to share that they were out on a date. As the pair threw back shots, he told the mother of two that she would be taking care of the child he has on the way with Chrisean. “I’m not gonna watch the child so you gon’ be stuck watching the child,” he told the mother of two. However, it appears that Chrisean has other plans for her unborn child.

“It’s just Chrisean now, Chrisean and God,” she told Twitter followers last month, “We welcoming this baby soon, but the version [and] vision I have is out of this world, it’s happening as I’m typing. The negative sh*t been behind me.” She also previously explained that there’s “no turning back from being a mommy.” She claims she “instantly fell in love,” upon hearing her child’s heartbeat.

Will Smith To Make A Comeback With New Movies

by

Will Smith is working hard to get his career back on track. Ever since the public incident at the 2022 Oscars awards show, people have been hesitant to work with him. At last year’s ceremony, Smith approached the stage and slapped Chris Rock in the face in front of the entire audience. The violent act was in response to Chris Rock making an offensive joke about Smith’s wife. Immediately following the exchange, Smith was promptly criticized and blacklisted by many.

As a result of all of the chaos, the rest of 2022 was a quiet one for Smith’s career. One year later, he is hopeful that his upcoming projects will allow him to turn over a new leaf. The actor, who chose to remain nearly radio silent last year, has two new movies in the works. He will star in both Bad Boys 4 and Fast and Loose. Originally, Fast and Loose was scheduled to begin production at the start of 2022. After the slap, the project took a break to let the tension around Smith settle down.

Will Smith’s Earnings For “Bad Boys 4” And “Fast And Loose”

Both of Will Smith’s upcoming films will be action movies, a genre the actor specializes in. Timing is everything, and Smith is making a wise choice by announcing his future projects so close to the anniversary of the Oscars. The legend will also be receiving $50 million total for both movies, at $25 million per film. Smith is not the only person speaking up about the Oscars incident. Chris Rock recently made a jab at the man who assaulted him during his recent Netflix comedy special. It is safe to assume Rock is not too excited to see Smith come back to the big screen.

Fans of Smith, however, are eager to see what lies in store for the previously outcasted actor. Many people are still in support of the man who was offended on his wife’s behalf. Regardless of the giant stain on the actor’s professional career, it is likely he will continue to be successful with his new work. Tune back in after the 2023 Oscars ceremony to see any new drama that may occur.

Keith Murray Claims He Saw Suge Knight Slap Diddy

by

After so many years of history, rappers took it upon themselves to share the genre’s tales with as much vigor and vividness as possible. At least, that seems to be the mission for Keith Murray, who gave an animated account of the time when Suge Knight allegedly slapped Diddy. Moreover, the New York rapper sat down for an interview with The Art of Dialogue where he made such claims. Moreover, it’s not his first claim regarding Bad Boy Records.

“Yo, I got a story to tell you!” he exclaimed to the interviewer. “One time, we was at Platinum House… Suge was there, I was there, Puffy was there, and we was all partying and chilling and stuff, right? It got late and the night dispersed. Then all of a sudden, outside… I walk up, and then I notice ‘Yo, there’s a f**king dead body right there in front of the Platinum House!’

“Wait, it wasn’t a dead body,” he went on to clarify. “It was a story. But it was Puffy and Suge. Suge was like ‘You, you all right?’ Puffy was there Then all of a sudden I saw Suge…” and Murray exclaimed and made an energetic slap motion, “smack the dogs**t out of Puffy. I’m like ‘Oh, s**t! This is crazy!’

“Puffy paused, looked at me like, ‘Yo, that’s what I get for being too nice,’” he concluded.

Furthermore, he had some more details about the incident. According to Murray, one of Suge’s friends had recently died. Despite the slight seriousness of the story, the 48-year-old gave a very expressive and animated account. “[Suge] brought it from left field down south of Georgia on Puffy,” he said.

Meanwhile, Murray recently turned heads on social media for his wild interviews and claims. Recently, he shocked Twitter with tales of his sexual exploits allegedly involving Shawnna and Foxy Brown. Moreover, Shawnna said that he needs help and clapped back at his stories.
