April 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this week, NLE Choppa dropped his new track “Slut Me Out 2,” to mixed reactions. While some listening think the 21-year-old’s raunchy bars are a bit much, others have already dubbed it the song of the summer. Following the release of the fun single, NLE Choppa took to Twitter/X to thank one community that’s been showing it plenty of love.

“I’m noticing the LGBTQ community showing so much love to ‘Slut Me Out 2,’” he wrote. “And I Simply Want To Say Thank You.. IDC what’s normalized as a rapper, I was raised to F*ck with who f*ck with you! So thank y’all for appreciating my craft.. My music For ALL we do NO Discrimination [heart emoji].”

NLE Choppa Appreciates All Of His Fans

His heartfelt post follows speculation surrounding the rapper’s sexuality, which he expertly addressed in a separate post yesterday. “I understand me being in love with myself as a BLACKMAN is so RARE to the point some people try putting the homosexual jacket on my name but with all due respect I love ALL, but my intimacy lies with women only [prayer emoji],” he explained. Choppa went on to receive praise for keeping his response respectful and refusing to alienate any portion of his audience.

“Period let’s normalize not giving a F & simply doing our thing,” one social media user writes. “This why I love him! A straight man who is comfortable in his own skin but also shows support to his LGBTQ fans! Yall could never make me hate him,” another says. What do you think of NLE Choppa thanking his fans in the LGBTQ+ community for showing him love following the release of his new song? How are you liking his track “Slut Me Out 2” so far?

Tyrese Says He Is Praying For Diddy’s Kids: “When A Man Is Down, Don’t Laugh At Him”

March 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Tyrese recently took to Instagram to share his thoughts on the recent events surrounding Diddy. In a sincere and empathetic message, the actor and singer opened up about the importance of compassion and understanding. Especially when someone is facing challenging times. During his IG Live session, Tyrese expressed his empathy towards Diddy’s children. Moreover, he reflected on how the situation might be affecting them. He emphasized the need to see things from their perspective and urged people not to revel in someone else’s downfall. “When a man is down, don’t laugh at him,” he stated firmly, highlighting the significance of empathy and kindness even in the face of controversy.

Moreover, Tyrese tried to imagine what the perspective of Diddy’s children could be. “I was thinking about the twins, who go to school with my daughter,” he explained. “I was thinking to myself that a lot of people are beating him down for what he allegedly did and its all about him. I was thinking about the family and kids. And the stress of them thinking ‘Yesterday I went home and all of a sudden I’m in handcuffs at the house.’ Trying my best to see things through the lens of my kids. Furthermore, he stressed the importance of extending support and prayers to those who are going through difficult times. Regardless of the circumstances.

Moreover, while acknowledging the severity of the accusations against Diddy, Tyrese made it clear that he stands by him. He offered his prayers and support to the music mogul and his family. He urged others to refrain from making a mockery of the situation and instead focus on providing understanding and compassion. “I’m the only one crazy enough to jump out there and say what most of you want to say but you don’t have the balls to do so,” Tyrese boldly said the other day. This highlights his willingness to speak up for what he believes in. Despite the challenges, he remains optimistic, praying for a better outcome for all those involved.

In a world often marked by judgment and criticism, Tyrese’s message serves as a powerful reminder to approach every situation with empathy and understanding. In addition, in the wake of recent news headlines surrounding Diddy, Tyrese’s message takes on added significance. While details surrounding the raids and the accusations against Diddy remain unclear, the public speculation and scrutiny have undoubtedly sparked conversations and debates across social media and news outlets.

Stevie J Supports Diddy & His Sons Following Home Raids

March 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this week, two of Diddy’s mansions in Los Angeles and Miami were raided by Homeland Security. Reportedly, the raids were conducted as part of a federal human trafficking investigation. Diddy’s lawyers have since denied the Bad Boy Records founder’s involvement in any illegal activity, even accusing officials of “gross overuse of military-level force.”

As expected, countless social media users and peers have been sharing their reactions to the news online, with many expressing shock, relief, and excitement. Others, however, have shown their support for Diddy amid the investigation. Recently, for example, Stevie J took to Instagram to share a message with followers, tagging Diddy as well as his sons Prince and King.

In the clip, Stevie J is seen listening to soulful music in a dimly lit room, looking empowered but somewhat distraught. “No weapon formed against us shall prosper,” he wrote. His supportive reaction to the worrisome news has some commenters speculating that he might also be up to no good, though this remains unconfirmed. “This is sick,” one user claims. “Why he praying for diddy to get outta trouble god ain’t finna let this slide.” Another says, “He’s praying they don’t come for him.”

Stevie J isn’t the only one of Diddy’s peers to show him public support following the home raids, however. Slim Thug also recently came to his defense online, noting how Diddy has yet to be charged with anything. “I don’t want to see a Black man who came so far, almost to a billion dollars, fall down. That’s our inspiration,” he said. “We losing another billionaire over allegations at this point. Still ain’t no criminal charges.” What do you think of Diddy’s two mansions getting raided by Homeland Security this week? Are you surprised? What about Stevie J’s reaction to the shocking news?

YesJulz Reveals Why She Supports Kanye West Despite $8M Lawsuit

March 21, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this month, it was revealed that Kanye West’s former promoter YesJulz was fired. Allegedly, she was engaging in unauthorized activity on multiple platforms, though she denies this. She’s also being sued for $8 million for allegedly violating an NDA. Despite all of this, the personality continues to support Ye, even sharing a clip of him on Twitter/X today and praising his “energy.” For obvious reasons, this has taken many fans by surprise, so she decided to follow up with an explanation.

According to YesJulz, she doesn’t believe that Ye is truly behind the lawsuit, instead speculating that Milo Yiannopoulos is behind it. She also notes that the Chicago MC believed in her when others didn’t, which she’ll always respect and appreciate him for. The influencer claims that until the lawsuit moves forward, she’ll continue to pray for his success.

YesJulz Thinks Milo Yiannopoulos Is Behind Lawsuit

He had to give me a chance before he was able to fire me- right?

How could i not support someone who saw potential in me when no one else did?

Regardless of the outcome,
I am forever grateful & wish Ye the best https://t.co/BbkfxC16NZ

— Yesjulz (@YesJulz) March 21, 2024

He has not told me he is suing me.
I have not seen HIS signature on the paper.

The letter of intent to arbitrate was very clearly written by Milo.
Signed by Ye’s lawyer,
who is also at the will of Milo.

If the suit moves forward and Ye allows it to, sure i may feel… https://t.co/KsUWyqX5np

“If the suit moves forward and Ye allows it to, sure i may feel different. & i’ll do what needs to be done to defend myself,” she continued. “I have no fear because i’ve done no wrong. Until then, i have compassion and grace for Ye as i know first hand how the people around him move & i feel its only a matter of time before the truth is revealed & he realizes whats truly going on. I pray for his continued success & protection.” What do you think of YesJulz continuing to support Kanye West despite him suing her? Are you surprised? How do you feel about her explanation?

Ja Rule Backs Diddy Amid Sexual Abuse Allegations: “I Believe In Justice”

March 6, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Since Cassie filed her bombshell lawsuit against Diddy in November, the Bad Boy Records founder has been hit with a slew of additional allegations. Most recently, he was accused of sexual misconduct against producer Rodney “Lil Rod” Jones, who alleges he was groped by the mogul. While the disturbing allegations have left the hip-hop community largely divided, he continues to receive support from several of his peers.

During a recent appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored, for example, Ja expressed sympathy for both Diddy and his alleged victims. While he chose not to speak on any of the allegations in particular, he wished luck to all those involved. “It’s another Black man in this industry going through some unfortunate circumstances,” he explained. “I wish him luck with everything he’s going through — and if there’s victims in this. I can’t speak on things that I don’t know about, Piers … but I wish everybody love.”

Ja Rule Weighs In On Diddy’s Onslaught Of Lawsuits

Ja Rule continued, asserting his belief that one’s punishment should align with their alleged wrongdoings. “It’s a very unfortunate thing for the victims of these situations, and for the people who are also being accused of these situations,” he said. “I believe in justice and I believe in the punishment fitting the crime.” He went on to argue that those making false accusations should be put behind bars.

“If people get convicted of the things these people are saying then they should be put in jail. But I also believe, on the flip side, if people are lying about these things they should also be taken to court, tried and be put in prison as well.” What do you think of Ja Rule showing public support for Diddy amid his allegations?

Juicy J Picks Megan Thee Stallion Over Nicki Minaj, Co-Signs “HISS”

February 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Juicy J has seemingly taken a side in the beef between Nicki Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion, although it’s not an overt line in the sand. Still, there are very little other ways to interpret his support on Twitter of the latter’s newest single “HISS,” which is what ignited this outright battle in the first place. However, it wasn’t the song to start this spat, as the two sent subliminal shots at each other long before Queen Barb retaliated with “Big Foot.” You can also argue that this fiery revisit mostly owed itself to Nicki’s response to the “Megan’s Law” bar seemingly referencing her husband’s sex offender status, but that could apply as a general line in a lot of circumstances.

Furthermore, Juicy J didn’t like a tweet shading Nicki Minaj, retweet a disparaging comment, or say anything about the beef specifically. He simply quote-tweeted “Let’s go!” on a promotional video and thankful message from Megan Thee Stallion for fans’ support, encouraging them to keep watching the music video and listening to the track. For those unaware, the Three 6 Mafia legend and the Houston superstar have collaborated often in the past, such as 2019’s “Three Point Stance” with additional support from the City Girls. As such, this respect between collaborators is hardly surprising.

Juicy J Is A Fan Of Megan Thee Stallion’s Nicki Minaj-Targeting Track “HISS”

Let’s go! https://t.co/G2a2gbYfZ1

— juicy j (@therealjuicyj) February 1, 2024

Another example came as recently as last August, when Megan Thee Stallion and Juicy J filmed a TikTok together. Regardless of that bond, he didn’t really ever outwardly diss or suggest any animosity with Nicki Minaj, another MC that he worked with in the past on tracks like 2014’s “Low” with Lil Bibby and Young Thug. With that in mind, we don’t think this endorsement is anti-Roman, but rather just an artist supporting another. Perhaps there’s more behind-the-scenes tea about this that we’re still not privy to.

Meanwhile, “HISS” is on the path to massive success, on pace to cinch Meg’s first solo number one hit. “Big Foot” is doing very well too, though, and once both tracks have been out for a full week, we can really break down the numbers. Do you think Juicy J has the pull to turn the tide?

Benny The Butcher Explains Donald Trump Support & His “Frustration” With It

January 14, 2024 by newhiphopnews

When Benny The Butcher tweeted “I’m votin Trump 2024,” many fans hoped that someone had hacked his account. However, he dodged a question about it during a podcast appearance shortly after, which got fans even more worried. Even though we shouldn’t hold anyone to any standard based solely on their political opinion, listeners simply wanted a more elaborate explanation as to why. Well, they just got it, as the Black Soprano Family boss appeared on The Breakfast Club for a wide-ranging interview. Moreover, he reflected a little bit more than last time about what that tweet means to him, and whether he stands by it today.

“People in our position ain’t supposed to speak on their political candidates,” Benny The Butcher expressed. “I also learned everybody voting for Trump, you know what I’m saying? Only president I voted for was Obama, so I really was just talking s**t. A lot of times, African Americans, we vote Democrat, and what the f**k that been doing for us? That’s all I mean, like, what the Democrats been doing for us? I was expressing my frustrations on that. I don’t know who I’m voting for.”

Benny The Butcher Joins The Breakfast Club: Watch

The Trump conversation begins around the 21:30-minute mark.

Of course, this is far from the only hip-hop endorsement of Donald Trump, although it might be among the most unexpected. But Benny The Butcher’s words ring true for many typically blue voters in the U.S. who haven’t seen much to praise from either political party. Perhaps this isn’t the forum to get into that, but it’s an important reality to acknowledge as both groups head into what will likely be a destructive and chaotic election year. It will be very curious to see how public opinion on these matters evolves throughout the year, especially within artistic fields like rap music, in this case.

Meanwhile, the “BRON” MC will likely be one of those millions of citizens who will weigh their options up to November. Maybe he will also take this experience and run with it, perhaps chiming in with some political commentary every once in a while. Some want to keep these worlds separate for understandable reasons, but we need these conversations to happen at every level across pop culture, everyday life, and all communities who will be very impacted by whoever sits in the Oval Office. For more news and the latest updates on Benny The Butcher, keep checking in with HNHH.

Tamika Mallory On Chrisean Rock: “We Are Ready To Help”

September 23, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Recently, NYC-based activist Tamika Mallory took to social media to offer her support to Chrisean Rock. Chrisean just recently had her first child, a son named Chrisean Jr., with Blueface. Since he arrived, she’s been subject to a great deal of criticism online. Most recently, she was spotted at Walmart with the newborn, and the child appeared to be improperly secured in his carrier. This got a lot of attention, with many claiming that she was putting him at risk.

Blueface has also been quick to judge Chrisean, accusing her very early on of not making him her top priority. With that being said, adjusting to new motherhood is no easy feat. Mallory wants to make sure that the 23-year-old feels properly supported in her journey. She wrote a message to the reality star today, letting her know that she and other women have her back.

“My heart goes out to Chrisean,” Mallory began. “I was a young single mother and it is NO JOKE.” She then went on to describe how she herself struggled to navigate motherhood, and made mistakes that at times, impacted her child. “While we sit and watch sis struggling to find her way, I want to offer support,” she explained. “Please let her know there are a group of women ready to help her (we’ve already discussed ways we can support). When she said ‘instead of filming me, help me’ it hit me to my core. I know it’s not easy or convenient to intervene in the affairs of people you don’t know, but I do it all the time.”

“If anyone knows Chrisean,” Mallory also added, “tell her we are ready to help.” What do you think of Tamika Mallory offering support to Chrisean Rock? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates on Chrisean Rock.

Tory Lanez Fan Livid With Megan Thee Stallion, Claims She Took Time Off Work To Support Him In Court

August 8, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Tory Lanez was making a ton of headlines yesterday as his sentencing hearing took place. People were anticipating his sentence to come down swiftly. However, that is not at all how things played out. Instead, the judge had numerous people speak during the proceedings. The entire hearing played out throughout the afternoon and it never concluded. According to Meghann Cuniff, the judge decided that Tory’s sentencing would continue today. This subsequently kicked off another wave of anticipation.

Moreover, we even found out that numerous people sent letters to the judge, vouching for Tory. For instance, Iggy Azalea was one of the people who reached out. Overall, this led to a ton of backlash. Although, it doesn’t seem like Iggy cares about your criticisms. As for Tory’s fans, they are hoping for a light sentence. Some of them were even at the hearing yesterday. This includes the woman below, who was recently posted on The Neighborhood Talk Instagram page.

Tory Lanez Fan Goes Off

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

As you can see, this young fan is absolutely livid with Megan Thee Stallion. The woman claimed that she hates Meg and that supporting Tory is costing her a lot of money. She says that she had to take time off work in order to come to the courthouse. Moreover, she lives pretty far away, which made it a long trek. In her eyes, without Meg, this whole situation would have never happened. It was a bizarre rant that invoked a whole lot of victim-blaming. Whether or not this woman will return for day 2 of Tory’s sentencing, remains to be seen.

Tory Lanez is currently facing 13 years in prison, at least that is if the prosecution gets its way. The judge has said that Tory’s actions after the shooting will be considered when giving the sentence. Let us know what you think of the proceedings, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Fat Joe Believes Meagan Good Is Right In Supporting Jonathan Majors In Court

June 22, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The Jonathan Majors case, accusing the actor of assault and harassment, continues to develop in pop culture. Moreover, a high-profile part of his public goings-on has been his relationship with Meagan Good, who showed up in court to support him. While this has been a source of controversy for many, Fat Joe believes that this is exactly what a partner should do in these cases. In a video clip, he expressed that this is what he would want if he was in Majors’ shoes. However, he also made it clear that Good’s support is no excuse for the Creed III star’s actions.

“Let me tell you something, hand to hand to his court case,” Fat Joe remarked (which comes much later in the video below). “Now as far as I’m concerned they only been dating for a little while, and so the pastor prepped her to be a good woman. A law-abiding supporting woman. I want a woman to hold me down. I need a woman to hold me down and men need women to hold them down. You need your woman right next to you no matter what.

A post shared by FAT JOE (@fatjoe)

“So this woman knows the good bible,” the New York rapper continued. “She stood with her man, he just started talking to her. Now you talk about a guy that fumbled the bag legendary, it’s him. In the Marvel pictures and everything, I don’t know how he’s gonna get back to that level.” As such, Fat Joe made a distinction between his legal troubles and the camaraderie that a couple should display. Given that people have been going wild at every public outing they’re spotted at, a court appearance just doused that fire in gasoline.

Furthermore, for those unaware, Jonathan Majors went to court alongside his partner following a March 25 arrest. The incident involved a number of misdemeanor assault and harassment charges after he allegedly attacked a woman. Since then, it seems like Meagan Good and Majors have steadily progressed their relationship amid these accusations. Trial is set to being on August 3. For the latest news and updates on Meagan Good, Jonathan Majors, and Fat Joe, log back into HNHH.
