André 3000 Reportedly Charged $100K For Kesha Remix Verse

by

Bangladesh just told a remarkable story about Kesha’s remix for her track “Sleazy,” which he worked on. However, the most surprising part about his tale was André 3000’s involvement in the new version, with him getting paid a truckload for a verse he didn’t even know if he wanted to do. In an interview with B High ATL, the producer said that fellow track producer Dr. Luke wanted him off the track because he didn’t understand his verse. “Ain’t too many n***as can say they got a 3000 verse on their beat,” Bangladesh said. “He just a discreet n***a, exclusive a** n***a, but man, 3000 one of my favorite rappers. Outkast alone one of my favorite groups of all time, Fugees, Outkast, s**t like that. And for it to be a white girl that got Bangladesh and André 3000 on her s**t? That was dope.

“I was locked in with Dr. Luke,” he continued. “Dr. Luke took a liking to me, f***ed with me, think I’m brilliant. Gave me the opportunity, cause Kesha requested me. I went out there, I made the beat right in front of them. I made the beat right in the studio and they got 3000 on it. She wanted 3000, she wanted Bangladesh and it came about.”

André 3000 Charged A “Football Field” For Kesha’s “Sleazy” Remix

“Dr. Luke told me a story about the process of getting 3 Stacks on the beat,” Bangladesh continued about André 3000. “N***a charged him a football field, that n***a charged him $100,000 for the verse, but still didn’t know if he wanted to do it So it ain’t even about money. He just wanna know if he could say something that’s real to him on this type of s**t. So he just kept giving him the runaround then he sent it to him last minute. Dr. Luke told me, ‘Man, I was gonna take it off because it was like, ‘What is he talking about?’ I’m not feeling it, like, what is he talking about?’

“I’m looking at this n-gga like, ‘What did you just say?’” the producer concluded. “Like, what did you just say? It’s probably a cultural gap and he might not understand what he’s talking about cause he’s saying something real on such a commercial record. You have to really be from that to know what he saying and appreciate what he doing. But to say you’re gonna take him off of it after you gave him $100,000… I would never take 3000 off of anything.” Regardless of your take on the verse’s worth, let us know what you think about this tale in the comments.

SleazyWorld Go Delivers Highly Anticipated Single “Robbers & Villains”

by

SleazyWorld Go returns with his new single, “Robbers & Villains.”

The self-proclaimed 2022 Rookie Of The Year is back in action this week with his latest offering, “Robbers & Villains.” Sleazy keeps his guttural, distinct flow intact as he rips through the eerie production, handled by TNTXD, Haze and Zuus. The production falls in line with the sound Sleazy established in the past but at the same time, it’s also refined and feels like a step forward for him.

Throughout the record, SleazyWorld Go further reflects on becoming densitized to violence. He discusses the cycle of death and violence in underprivileged communities while also looking back at his own traumas. It’s another strong effort from an artist who has undoubtedly began carving his own lane in rap within the past year.

SleazyWorldGo released his debut project, Where The Shooters Be in 2022 following the success of “Sleazy Flow” and its remix featuring Lil Baby. However, it appears that “Robbers & Villains” is just the beginning when it comes to what he has in store this year. During his interview with HNHH in December, he said that he still has “a lot to prove.”

“I feel like it was my rookie year this year. Next year is my second year in the game so I still got a lot to prove. My work ain’t done,” he said. “I wanna have more plaques than I had this year, I wanna drop more music than I did this year.”

Check out his new single below.

Quotable Lyrics
I seen a bitch fuck with a shooter, made him soft
Fear that love, some n***as’ll pay whatever it cost
Glock a Uber driver, this bitch made to drop ’em off
What you think my shooters for? Them boys paid to knock shit off 

SleazyWorld Go On His Breakout Year, “Sleazy Flow” Success & Lil Baby & Offset Relationships

by

When those haunting piano keys and rattling bass hits, you know it’s going down. SleazyWorld Go catapulted into our collective consciousness earlier this year with the release of “Sleazy Flow” – a song that cemented his fate as a frontrunner of the new generation of artists. At the time, SleazyWorld Go lost his YouTube page and had to rebuild the momentum from scratch. However, he created a new YouTube channel where he dropped “Sleazy Flow” and soon after, it formed a life of its own.

In a matter of months, SleazyWorld Go became one of the hottest names in hip-hop. He earned co-signs from heavyweights like Lil Baby and Offset, both of which appeared on his debut project, Where The Shooters Be.

“Sometimes, it feels surreal,” SleazyWorld Go told HNHH of his meteoric rise from YouTube sensation to earning the respect of artists like Baby and Offset. “Back when I was younger listening to them, I never would have thought or known that I would be doing music with them in the future but, it happened… Listening to their music back then, now I’m doing music with them.”

For the penultimate installment of HotNewHipHop’s 12 Days Of Christmas, we caught up with the SleazyWorld Go to discuss his meteoric success, relationship with Tech N9ne, and leaving a legacy behind like Juice WRLD.
