Alfonso Ribeiro Seemingly Shades Tyler Perry, Fans Beg For Shannon Sharpe Interview

May 28, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Alfonso Ribeiro is someone who has been very honest and up-front about what he has experienced throughout his career. Overall, most fans know him as Carlton from The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air. As Ribeiro states, he was typecast for the majority of his career. Numerous casting directors would try to get him into roles that were identical to Carlton’s. Although outsiders may think these are great opportunities, for an actor, they are insulting. Ribeiro knew he could do other roles, but they simply were not being offered.

In the aftermath of his most recent comments about his career, Ribeiro has been hit with lots of unsolicited advice. Recently, on Twitter, one fan came out and claimed that Ribeiro’s career could be revitalized by Tyler Perry. However, Ribeiro did not like that suggestion one bit. In fact, he replied to the fan’s comment, saying “I don’t need or ever want that man to do anything for me.” Overall, it was a pretty sternly worded reply, and fans were curious as to whether or not there was some sort of animosity at play.

In the replies over at The Shade Room, there were numerous calls for Ribeiro to sit down with Shannon Sharpe on Club Shay Shay. Of course, this would be an incredible conversation. Sharpe is known for having great interviews, even if it is the guest who mostly makes it work. If Ribeiro were to go on Club Shay Shay and put it all out there, it would most certainly go viral. That said, it remains to be seen whether or not Ribeiro would even be interested in such a thing.

Let us know what you think about all of this, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that Ribeiro should go on Club Shay Shay? Do you believe that Shannon Sharpe would be able to get a good interview considering the subject matter? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Cardi B Reveals Why She Came Back After Social Media Break

May 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It goes without saying that being a megastar like Cardi B comes with its fair share of perks, but unfortunately, the “Bongos” also frequently finds herself at the center of relentless scrutiny. According to her, this tends to get in the way of her ability to express herself freely through her music. As a result, she recently opted to take a short break from social media, which was a major relief.

Ultimately, however, she decided that she wouldn’t let critics keep her away from her fans. During her recent interview with Rolling Stone, she opened up about her social media break, revealing that it was ultimately her children that motivated her to give it another shot.

Cardi B Wanted To Set The Right Example For Her Children

“Being at home,” she explained. “When I was off social media and nobody knew what I was doing, I was at peace a lot.” Cardi continued, describing how she doesn’t want to set the wrong example for her little ones. “What am I going to do? Never post or never work again because that’s peace? No,” she said. “I don’t ever want my daughter or my son to ever give up on something because they can’t take the pressure of what people say about them. I got to set that example.”

“It’s like, ‘Y’all never going to break me.’ Because I got something to prove to myself. I also got to prove something to the haters. I’ve got to prove it to my own kids.” What do you think about Cardi B opening up about the peace she found while on a break from social media? What about the femcee second-guessing her decision? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Meek Mill Claims Black People Need Therapy Because Of Social Media

May 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Meek Mill has had a rough few months. Things got started earlier this year when he released his new EP HEATHENISM. The 5-track EP features Future and Fivio Foreign but that didn’t help it perform well commercially. The project did underwhelming numbers by Meek’s standards, something that 50 Cent hasn’t let him live down in the months since. Though Meek did attempt to provide a defense for the poor sales saying that it was just a side project to conclude his record deal, many fans weren’t buying it.

Even more of the viral hate directed at Meek comes from his affiliation with Diddy. Back in February, an explosive lawsuit was filed against the rap mogul by one of his former collaborators Lil Rod. It features multiple references to other famous rappers like Yung Miami and of course, Meek Mill. That’s caused fans to dig up a decade’s worth of videos and photos of Meek hanging out with Diddy. Just earlier today Diddy’s situation got even worse when graphic video of him allegedly assaulting Cassie was leaked by CNN. Unsurprisingly, Meek took to social media today to talk about the damage that those very platforms have done to the black community. Check out what he had to say below.

Meek Mill Calls For Therapy For The Black Community

The black community needs therapy over social media point blank … the points we be trying to make don’t lead to anything … just a bunch of people pointing fingers all day …I talk because I see a generation run by computers … computers don’t suffer but people do!

— MeekMill (@MeekMill) May 16, 2024

In a new tweet, he took aim at social media platforms. “The black community needs therapy over social media point blank … the points we be trying to make don’t lead to anything … just a bunch of people pointing fingers all day …I talk because I see a generation run by computers … computers don’t suffer but people do!” his post reads. The replies feature mixed reactions from fans including many pointing out the Meek himself could also use a break from social media.

What do you think of Meek Mill’s comments about the black community needing therapy from the effects of social media? Do you agree with him that platforms like Twitter are harming people’s mental health? Let us know in the comment section below.

21 Savage Hits Soulja Boy With An Ominous Threat After Dissing Metro Boomin’s Late Mother

May 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

21 Savage is an artist who had been relatively quiet on social media throughout the beef between Drake, Metro Boomin, and Kendrick Lamar. However, yesterday, the artist came out and said that he is not about picking sides. He loves Metro and he loves Drake, and he believes that they will eventually be able to patch things up. It was an incredibly mature way of looking at things, and fans commended 21 for being a real one in all of this. Although he did find himself at the center of another beef on Sunday.

As many of you already know, Metro Boomin and Soulja Boy are embroiled in a feud that was sparked by an old Metro tweet in which he made fun of Soulja Boy. This subsequently led to some tweets that were beyond disrespectful. Soulja essentially began making fun of Metro Boomin and his mother, who was tragically killed in an act of domestic violence. Yesterday was Mother’s Day, which made the diss that much worse. Well, as you can see down below, 21 Savage issued a response that will definitely make Soulja Boy think twice about continuing with his antics.

Erica Banks Thirsts Over 50 Cent And Fans Don’t Blame Her

May 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Erica Banks is someone who has never shied away from speaking her mind on social media. Overall, she has taken this very same approach to her music, where she delivers fiery freestyles and some catchy tracks. She has been able to build up her fanbase quite a bit, and although some believe she has relied a bit too much on beef, others are just happy whenever she drops. She’s a necessary voice in the rap game, and there is no doubt that she is carving out a nice lane for herself right now.

As it turns out, Banks might just have a crush on none other than rap legend 50 Cent. We know this because of a post she recently made on Twitter about the legendary rapper. “idkkkkk 50 Cent was looking real yummy last night.. I’ll do him sum bad,” she wrote with a laughing emoji. Needless to say, she is not playing around.

Following this revelation, fans on The Neighborhood Talk were quick to agree with the artist. “Yea Curtis might be messy but he showl fine,” one person wrote. “50 cent is fine tho ngl,” said another. However, there were just as many people trying to tear Banks down by saying that she is not his type. Either way, 50 Cent is taken right now, so Banks will simply have to wait if she truly wants a shot with the music mogul. That said, we’re sure the man is flattered to be thought of in that way.

Momma Dee Shades Hunxho & Keyshia Cole’s Relationship As Potentially Transactional

May 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Momma Dee remains as outspoken as ever, as she shared during a recent social media live session that she’s not a fan of Keyshia Cole and Hunxho’s relationship. Moreover, she explained that she has a lot of love for Keyshia and wishes her the best, but gave her some advice and constructive criticism on her fling with the rapper. For example, the L&HH: Atlanta star theorized that there was a disconnect between what Cole’s partner might’ve told her in private versus what he’s trying to portray publicly. Not only that, but she compared that to Love & Hip Hop, in the sense that the show often goes “too real” whereas online relationships have the luxury of less narrative pushback.

After all, part of the drama behind shows like Love & Hip Hop exemplifies how different tales and gossip points spin against a person, so this is an understandable perspective from a veteran cast member. Elsewhere, Momma Dee also blasted Hunxho for allegedly cheating on Keyshia Cole, and posited that younger men like older women because they have a motherly aspect to them. As such, they can depend on another woman being more mature and doing the everyday stuff while they still enjoy their youthful ignorance. Dee thinks that some men just want older women to take care of them.

Momma Dee On Keyshia Cole & Hunxho

Throughout this specific live session, Momma Dee also brought up Scrappy and the wider L&HH: Atlanta universe with her remarks and references. Things have always been pretty contentious in that field, especially between those two and Lil Scrappy’s relationship with Bambi. We wonder if these differing commentaries on Hunxho and Keyshia Cole’s situation will also cause some old wounds to refresh. Either way, that’s drama that seemingly keeps on giving.

Meanwhile, Hunxho and Keyshia Cole are still flaunting each other online and, in Cole’s case, taking a lot of criticism and speculation head-on. We wonder if Momma Dee will get the chance to speak with her friend in a way that doesn’t come across as so gossip-heavy. No matter how these bonds develop in the future, at least one thing seems clear. This is by no means the end of this saga, so strap in for the ride.

Cardi B Fires Back At A Fan For Demanding Her New Album As The Wait Continues

May 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Cardi B clapped back at a fan on Twitter in a pair of since-deleted posts after the user demanded she release her long-awaited sophomore album. In a post on the platform, the user wrote: “Cardi if that album doesn’t come before summer you better just stay off this app because if so I personally will make sure every edgy bg post is PLASTERED into the top of every single refresh you pull, YOU.” The Invasion of Privacy rapper responded: “B*tch its 7am… STFU.”

When the fan apologized and explained that she was just excited about new music, Cardi wrote back: “I’m looking at your page and you insulting artist I work with ..You not askin you TELLING ME WHAT TO DO ..I don’t know who raising y’all but I ain’t tell my momma what to do so nobody tells me what to do talking bout ‘better’ I’ll get pregnant right now and tell you go f*ck urself and give you sh*t ..I said I’m dropping this year right?

Cardi has confirmed her intent to release her second album at some point this year on multiple occasions. During a live stream on Instagram, earlier this year, she claimed she won’t let her anxiety about dropping get the better of her. “Look at how long I had this f***ing record for,” Cardi B said at the time. “January 27, twenty-twenty-f***ing-three. I was working on this s**t at 5AM, you know I’m a night owl. I promise y’all this year, I’m not letting my anxiety, I’m not letting what haters say, I’m not letting what fans say… If I do a song, I’ma just f***ing drop it. Well, I got no choice, ’cause I’m dropping my album this year, so… Stay tuned for the announcement, but don’t play with me! Don’t play with me!

Saweetie Speaks Out After Twitter Mistakes Her For Ice Spice

May 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Saweetie is an artist who has been in the news quite a bit as of late. Overall, her relationship with YG has certainly been a hot topic of conversation. This is especially true given the current feud between Quavo and Chris Brown. Recently, the two started dropping diss tracks on one another. Although the back and forth is now over, fans were certainly impressed by all of it. However, it came at the expense of Saweetie’s peace as Brown made the claim that he slept with her while she was still with Quavo.

In the midst of all of this, Saweetie has been looking to drop off a brand-new track called “NANI.” This is a song that had been teased a while back, and has since been given a release date of May 17th. With this new release date in mind, Twitter’s new AI trending tab decided to let fans know about the release. However, instead of saying that the song is by Saweetie, the algorithm messed up and said Ice Spice was dropping the song. This subsequently led to a humorous response from Saweetie, who didn’t seem too offended by the mix-up.

Saweetie Speaks Out

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

“Yall getting the pretty girls mixed up,” Saweetie wrote with a crying emoji. Twitter has tried a ton of new things under Elon Musk’s leadership, and the new trending tab feature has proven to be a bit of a flop. This latest mistake between Saweetie and Ice Spice is proof that it needs a lot of work that. That said, Saweetie isn’t tripping about it. In fact, Ice Spice probably feels good about the rapper calling her a “pretty girl.”

Let us know what you thought of this innocent mistake, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that Elon Musk has ruined what was once a fun social media platform? Do you still use Twitter, and if so, do you even bother to call it X? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.
