Shaq Responds To Shannon Sharp With Explosive Diss Track

May 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The Shaq and Shannon Sharpe beef is hitting another level. It all started over Shaq’s awkward interview with Nikola Jokic. He told Jokic he believed Shai Gilgeous-Alexander deserved to be named NBA MVP instead of the Denver Big. Jokic didn’t think too much about the comment, but it was a very awkward and unnecessary moment. Shannon Sharp responded to Shaq’s comments on his Nightcap podcast, insinuating that he is jealous of the now-three-time MVP Jokic. Sharp said Shaq’s lack of drive and discipline is what is keeping him out of the GOAT conversation. Sharpe said on his podcast that the big man underachived. He said, “Shaq should have five MVPs.” Shaq did not take kindly to the slights.

Shaq responded with a lengthy Instagram comment where he fired serious shots at Shannon Sharp. he refuted his defense of SGA as him being jealous of Joker. He then went on to disparage Shannon Sharpe’s accomplishments, saying he isn’t even top-10 in his position as an NFL tight end. Now, the TNT analyst has upped the ante. He has released a diss track aimed right at Shannon Sharpe, and social media cannot believe it.

Shaq Disses Shannon Sharpe In New Track

Shaq has joined the rap beef trend. His diss against Shannon Sharpe is short but effective, as the big man delivers some hefty blows to his foe. Shaq has always been a talented rapper, so it’s no surprise that, with everything going on in the world of rap, he felt inclined to make a diss record. It starts off with a former NBA player gassing up the Big Diesel to Shannon and Ochocinco. He raps that Shannon Sharpe is way beneath the NBA Hall of Famer. The song cuts off in the middle of his explosive verse, so hopefully, there is a part two on the way.

Shannon Sharpe will certainly respond at any minute. Don’t expect the NFL Hall of Famer to hop in the booth, though. This sports personality beef all started due to an awkward situation Shaq created. He had to have known his comments to Nikola Jokic would cause some controversy. Overall, the diss track has made this ordeal that much more fun.

Toosi Explains Himself After Revealing Shaq DMed His Girl

May 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Shaquille O’Neal caused a stir on social media when he flaunted his considerably younger girlfriend. Rapper Toosii harbors some animosity for the NBA star. Recent photos of Shaq and his 21-year-old girlfriend enjoying a ton of fun in Spain may have set Toosii off and reminded him of a run-in with the NBA Hall of Famer. He accused Shaq of making advances against his girlfriend Samaria Davis around eighteen months prior, sending her a direct message asking, “Can I have that baby?” he has now clarified the situation.

Toosii had already uploaded evidence of the interaction, which he obviously thought was inappropriate and disrespectful to him. A few months after Toosii and Samaria’s baby Ezrah was born, in November 2022, the DM was sent. He did not feel Shaq’s response to a photo of the mother and child. Now he is backtracking, saying he misunderstood the DM and took it out of context. He is still confused by the situation, judging from his response.

Toosi Goes Into Detail About Shaq Dming His Girl

Now Toosi says he posted the DM because he thought Shaq was talking about his child. He implied it was Shaq trying to holler at his girl but now says that was never the case. He clarified that he posted it because he thought it was weird that Shahq mentioned his child. Toosi sasy men are going to DM your girl, so he isn’t tripping over Shaq trying to get with her. He then weirdly says he doesn’t want Shaq to get with her because he is a giant man, and his girl is very tiny. He may have got some pushback and tried to save face. His entire clarification is pretty confusing, as he clearly thought Shaq was after his woman.

Shaq’s previous relationships have been on the news this week. His ex-girlfriend, Moneice Slaughter, detailed the big man’s cheating habits, revealing he cheated on her with Rocsi Diaz and Hoopz. His ex-wife Shaunie Henderson revealed in her book that she doesn’t know if she truly loved her ex-husband, who also allegedly cheated on her multiple times. Overall, Shaq is a ladies’ man, and it wouldn’t be surprising if his DM to Toosi’s girl was him breaking the ice.

Coco Gauff Picks Kendrick Lamar Over Drake Because Of Serena Williams Diss

May 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Coco Gauff is the latest of many who have taken a definitive stance in the Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake feud. Yesterday Tennis star Naomi Osaka planted her flag on Kendrick’s side, stating he won the beef. Osaka also urged the rapper to drop another diss record because “Not Like Us” was so good. Now her fellow Tennis star Coco Gauff has chosen a side in the feud. Coco has chosen Kendrick Lamar as the winner, and it’s for good reason.

Coco Gauff’s decision to side with Kendrick Lamar over Drake is not just a matter of personal preference in music. It’s a decision rooted in her personal connection to the feud. Gauff’s support for Kendrick stems from Drake’s repeated disses against her idol, Serena Williams. In her own words, Gauff explained, “To be honest, I liked Kendrick’s songs more. And I think pretty much everyone I know is leaning towards him. But I do like Drake as an artist as well. But as far as the rap battle is going on, the rap beef, I think definitely Kendrick’s winning. Also, Drake dissed Serena [Williams] so I have to go with Kendrick. Kendrick defended her, so yeah, I have to go with him.”

In the song “Middle of the Ocean” from 2022, Drake referred to Williams’ spouse, Alexis Ohanian, as a “groupie.” Although they were never official, there were also rumors that Drake and Williams had dated in the past. Kendrick Lamar defended his fellow Compton Native Williams on the hit diss track “Not Like Us.” Kendrick rapped, “From Alondra down to Central / n**gas better not speak on Serena.” Coco Gauff idolizes Serena, so her choosing Kendrick is a no-brainer.

Four-time Grand Slam title champion Naomi Osaka said of the beef, “Kendrick dropped some heat.” She continued, “That last song is amazing, and I played it while walking onto the court.” Popular opinion is that Kendrick Lamar has officially won the feud. Drake’s last diss track did not go over like the rapper wanted. Meanwhile, Kendirk’s “Not Like Us” may have become an all-time diss record. Overall, Osaka and Coco Gauff are part of the team Kendrick for good reason.

Glen Davis Is All Jokes After Being Sentenced To 40 Months In Prison

May 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

A federal judge has sentenced Glen “Big Baby” Davis, a former NBA player, to prison. The judge found Davis guilty of embezzling a substantial amount of money from the NBA’s healthcare plan. Davis was found guilty in November 2023 of participating in an alleged scheme to defraud the Players’ Health and Benefit Welfare Plan of the NBA. A New York judge sentenced the former Boston Celtics champion to 40 months in jail on Thursday. Despite the bad news, Glen Davis appears that he is not taking the sentencing seriously.

Following his federal prison term of forty months, Glen Davis responded in a manner that some might find surprising. He took to his Instagram account, posting a response that was both unhinged and hilarious. Davis, who had been facing a possible 20-year jail term in this case, was also required to serve three years of supervised release. In addition, the judge mandated that he pay $80,000 in reparations. Glen Davis isnt worried about it at all. He is all jokes despite the fact that he is likely going to prison.

Glen Davis Jokes ABout Heading To Prison

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

Glen Davis was cracking jokes after the, what would be to most, devastating news that he is going to prison. The former NBA big man joked, “That’s the only way you can stop me from eating hamburgers is to put me in jail.” He also joked about prison life, saying, “I’mma have to choke the chicken in the bathroom.” Glen Davis always had a joking personality, but to have it in the face of a prison bid is something else. Maybe he knows something about his sentencing that we don’t.

Twenty people were charged with filing false claims to the NBA’s health and welfare benefit plan for procedures and medical treatments that never occurred. Among them were former players Will Bynum, Terrence Williams, and Keyon Dooling. Davis was found guilty of a number of charges. He was found guilty of wire fraud, health care fraud, conspiracy to conduct fraud, and conspiracy to make false claims. Overall, It could have been much worse for Davis as he faced up to twenty years behind bars.

50 Cent Clowns Ja Rule Over Allegedly Cursing The New York Knicks

May 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Ja Rule is alleged to have cursed the New York Knicks chances of winning their first NBA Championship since 1973. Ja was heard saying, ‘Champions only, baby. Go Knicks!’ as he raised and kissed the prized Larry O’Brien trophy before the game. This act left Knicks supporters quite concerned. Fans speculated that Ja Rule’s curse might have affected the game, as players like Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby were injured despite the Knicks winning. The curse may have been real.

50 Cent has joined the group of enraged Knicks supporters who believe Ja Rule cursed the NBA franchise. Ja lifted the NBA Championship before the Knicks did, which is seen as unlucky, and 50, who needs no reason to take a jab at his old foe, took notice. People are obviously running with the idea that Ja cursed the Knicks, and the growing injury list for the New York team suggests they may be right. 50 Cent tweeted his roast of Ja Rule on Twitter, knowing that his longtime enemy may have cursed the New York Knicks.

50 Cent Trolls Ja Rule Over Cursing The Knicks

On social media, 50 Cent shared a video of Ja holding the Larry O’Brien trophy along with the caption, “Oh sh*t, don’t bet on the Knicks to win this next game.” 50 continued hilariously, saying, “This janky ass [ninja emoji] put his juju all on the team. Fuck that I’m bet my money on the wolves! LOL.” Knicks fans obviously gravitated to 50’s post, agreeing with the rapper and throwing more shade at Ja Rule. It’s an unfortunate turn of events for Ja Rule, who was just having some fun before the Knicks game. Now, unfortunately, he may get the blame if the Knocks don’t advance to the next round.

The Knicks are currently up 2-0 on the Indiana Pacers. Jalen Brunson, the Knicks superstar guard who has been carrying the team, suffered a foot injury in game two. He was able to return after missing the entire second quarter. Knicks defensive stopper OG Anunoby suffered a hamstring injury in the fourth quarter and has since been ruled out of game 3 in Indiana. The Knicks injury report continues to grow. Ultimately, Ja Rule better hope they close out the Pacers.

Shaq Blasts Shannon Sharpe Over Response To His MVP Comments

May 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Denver Nuggets superstar Nikola Jokic just won his third MVP, cementing him as one of the best players ever. In Jokic’s interview after receiving the award from the TNT basketball crew, Shaq made an interesting comment to the Joker. Shaq told Jokic he thought Oklahoma City Thunder star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander should have won MVP. The Big Aristotle says he didn’t mean any disrespect, but it was still an awkward and probably unnecessary moment. Shannon Sharpe, like many others, took issue with Shaq’s comments.

Sharpe responded to Shaq on his Nightcap podcast with Chad Ochocinco. The ESPN personality said, “Shaq should have five MVPs.” He continued, saying, “He sees a guy like Nikola Jokic that’s not as dominant as him, gets three (MVP awards) in four years, I think a part of Shaq is envious of that.” Shannon then said that Shaq’s credentials make it hard to put him in the all-time player conversations because of his work ethic. Now, He has responded big time on Instagram by throwing some serious heat toward Shannon Sharpe.

A post shared by DJ Akademiks (@akademiks)

Shaq starts by saying his comments about defending SGA to Jokic weren’t disrespectful. He then says Shannon needs to be a top-10 player at his position to even speak on Superman. He then says Shannon Sharpe relies on clickbait and gossip to get where he is and that he is ultimately jealous of him. The TNT commentator lists his credentials and emphasizes that he is worth more than the ESPN talking head. All in all, he is not playing with Shannon Sharpe. His comments were always going to cause controversy, so the question is, why would he say that to Jokic anyway?

Shannon Sharpe will probably be responding soon. The back and forth between himself and Shaq is almost certainly not over. Sharpe is known to deliver some serious body blows if you push him. He may be a little jealous of Jokic, but he may just have felt like he needed to defend SGA. Whatever the case, Jokic has established himself as one of the best bigs ever. Overall, Shaq is definitely someone who would try to rain on his parade a little bit, being a fellow NBA great.

Toosii Puts Shaq On Blast For Wild DM To His Baby Mama

May 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In recent days, photos of Shaq vacationing alongside his 21-year-old alleged”girlfriend” in Spain have been making their rounds online. While these photos have since been confirmed to be five years old, they’ve captured the attention of countless social media users. Toosii, for example, decided to chime in earlier today.

Instead of commenting on the rumored age gap relationship directly, the performer decided to share his own experience with the NBA icon. Apparently, Shaq once slid into the DMs of his girlfriend Samaria J Davis, with whom he shares a child. According to Toosii, he didn’t play it cool either, making his intentions perfectly clear.

Toosii Exposes Shaq For Flirting With His Girlfriend

“One time this n***a dm Samaria and said ‘let me have that baby’ talking about my son,” Toosii replied to a report about Shaq’s rumored baecation. “Weird a** old head.” He went on to share a screenshot of the DM, and sure enough, it reads exactly as he put it. “Man idk if this how old n****s flirt or what,” he also added. Based on the screenshot, Shaq sent the message in November of 2022, only months after Samaria gave birth to her and Toosii’s son Ezrah. Shaq has yet to address the racy DM.

This isn’t the first time Shaq has gotten called out for seemingly shooting his shot, however. A few months back, he posted a photo of himself standing alongside Taylor Swift, Ice Spice, and more at the Super Bowl. “Ice Spice so dam fine,” he captioned the post, raising eyebrows. According to him, however, he “just wanted to show her some respect” and wasn’t actually flirting. What do you think of Shaq sliding into Toosii’s baby mama Samaria’s DMs? What about Toosii putting him on blast? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Osaka went on to describe her love for Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” which she has been enjoying on repeat and using for her walk-out music. All in all, Naomi is having fun with what has come out of the feud, and she thinks Kendrick’s song is the clear winner and highlight of the whole ordeal.

the four-time Grand Slam title champion said of “Not Like Us,” “Kendrick dropped some heat.” She continued, “That last song is amazing, and I played it while walking onto the court.” Osaka was asked by a reporter if she thought the Compton rapper should drop another diss track. Osaka replied, “Yeah. Sorry.” she then explained why it should lowkey happen. She explained, “Technically, Kendrick dropped that song, then Drake dropped “The Heart Part 6,” so technically Kendrick could drop another two if he wanted to,”

Subsequently, Osaka brought up a similar topic that was discussed in “The Heart Part 6,” when Drake discussed the conflict and said he’s “happy I could motivate you” since Kendrick’s fans are actually “getting raps” out of the MC. All signs point to Drake having lost the battle. People are declaring Kendrick the winner, saying Drake’s last diss didn’t go over that well. Overall, Naomi Osaka is happy to have gotten such an entertaining track from Kendrick Lamar. Maybe the beef was worth it just for that.

Patrick Beverley Hit With Suspension For Throwing Ball At Pacers Fans

May 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Patrick Beverley has been suspended by the NBA for throwing a ball at fans during the Pacers-Bucks playoffs series. This morning, it was reported that the Indianapolis police department was investigating the incident for potential charges being levied at Beverley. Now, the NBA has handed down its punishment in the form of a 4-gam suspension. The suspension is also a punishment for Beverley’s post-game dismissal of a female reporter from the locker room. Beverley told the reporter to leave the locker room because she did not subscribe to his podcast.

With Patrick Beverley set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer, his future team is a big question. It also stands to reason that his entire NBA future is uncertain. He is an older player with a lot of baggage and teams will ask if he is worth the headache. In the event that he moves on, it becomes apparent that the upcoming suspension will prevent him from making his new team’s debut straight away. An investigation is taking place, and the Indianapolis police are set on following through and doing their due diligence.

Patrick Beverley Suspended For 4-Games

The following was released by the NBA: pic.twitter.com/DVAWR4Z2g7

— NBA Communications (@NBAPR) May 9, 2024

Patrick Beverley did apologize for his acts and labeled them “inexcusable” earlier this week on his podcast, “The Pat Bev Podcast with Rone.” He explained that he did it because the trash talk by fans within the arena went too far. However, he restated that he ought not to have thrown the ball into the crowd. Patrick Beverley will now serve a 4-game suspension for both the act of throwing a ball at fans twice and disparaging a reporter after the game. Beverley might need to take up podcasting full-time. He is an unrestricted free agent after the season. Overall, it’s a big question mark where he will play next.

If he gets a minimum deal again next season—which is expected to be $3.3 million—he would lose almost $90,000 as a result of the ban. This isn’t the first time he has been suspended. During a blowout defeat to the Phoenix Suns in Game 6 of the Western Conference finals in 2021, Beverley shoved Chris Paul in the back as both players were making their way to their benches. As a result, he received a one-game ban while still a member of the LA Clippers. All in all, Pat Bev seems like he can’t handle losing.
