Gunna Cooks Up Something Good In New Studio Pics

November 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Gunna may have already dropped his comeback studio album in 2023, but don’t think he’s slowing his roll down anytime soon. Moreover, new pictures emerged of him in the studio, wearing the same dapper-as-ever fit that he donned for GQ‘s Men Of The Year event. While we didn’t get any snippets or other information that isn’t just the College Park, Georgia native’s presence in the booth, this should still be amping fans of his music up. After all, he had quite the dominant year with the viral success of his track “fukumean” and a massive narrative about his plea deal in the YSL RICO case. That conversation’s not over yet, but it’s clear that it bears no relevance in the development and interest in the Drip Season rapper’s career.

Furthermore, he also had plenty of singles and other material to fill out his 2023 run. For example, Gunna just dropped a new song with Turbo titled “Bachelor,” which might just be a loosie or an indicator of future projects to come. Either way, it’s nice to see that, at the very least, there’s a whole fanbase within the game that is eating this stuff up. It may not be the best or most contextually beneficial thing for many, but we can’t hate on an MC getting their bag.

In fact, it’s also been great to see him expand his range, go outside of his comfort zone, and do a great job in the process. Gunna remixed Victor Thompson’s “This Year,” which saw him enter the Afrobeat genre as if he was already in it for years. Hopefully this isn’t the last surprisingly welcome change of pace that we get from him following the release of a Gift & a Curse. If the 30-year-old just sticks to his lane, his fanbase and appeal will only get him so far.

Meanwhile, amidst a host of RIAA certifications cementing that album’s commercial success, he has a lot to celebrate. Wunna’s definitely proved that he can work hard no matter what issues come his way. All that fans are waiting on is for him to, if everything goes well, continue this trend. For more news and the latest updates on Gunna, stay posted on HNHH.

Ice Spice Teases Something Coming In 2024

November 14, 2023 by newhiphopnews

2023 has been the year of Ice Spice. The rapper rose from the underground to a full-on mega-star this year with numerous top 10 hits alongside Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj, and Pink pantheress. But she’s already looking forward to 2024 and isn’t expecting to go anywhere any time soon. While Spice doesn’t say exactly what’s coming, she’s already teasing something for her fans to get excited over.

“Y2K! ?/?/24” Ice Spice captioned a new post. She shared two pics of herself earlier today with a vague tease at something coming soon. In the comments, fans seem to take the bait and have already begun getting excited. “THE TATTOO ATEEEEEEEE,” one of the top comments reads in reference to the back tattoo Spice is showing off. “The outfit go crazy” another fan comments. Elsewhere in the comments they speculate on new music and in particular Spice potentially collaborating with another breakout rap star of this year, Sexyy Red.

Last week, the Grammys announced their nominations for the 2024 edition of the show. Ice Spice found herself among the nominees for the very first time. The breakout artist scored four nominations including Best New Artist, two for her Nicki Minaj collab “Barbie World” and another for her Taylor Swift collab “Karma.” She took to Instagram to share her excitement with fans in an adorable announcement where they poured out love for her in the comments.

Last month, she was once again on Instagram celebrating her major come-up. She reached 10 million Instagram followers in late October which serves as a signifier of just how quickly she’s grown as an artist. With the Grammy nominations already secured and new music potentially on the way 2024 could end up being as big for her as 2023. What do you think Ice Spice could be teasing with her new Instagram post? Let us know in the comment section below.

Cardi B Hints At Dropping New Music Before The End Of The Year: “I Feel Like I Gotta Talk My S*** A Little Bit”

November 13, 2023 by newhiphopnews

2018 was Cardi B’s coming-out party. Her debut album, Invasion of Privacy, was a commercial and critical success. Winning Best Rap Album at the 61st GRAMMYs over records like ASTROWORLD, Swimming, Daytona, and Victory Lap, was a massive upset pick. Most bashed the voters for picking this over what are considered to be four classic records. However, Cardi’s tape was so massive in terms of the numbers. There were tons of radio hits on it like “I Like It,” Bartier Cardi,” and “Bodak Yellow.”

However, after that, things began to slow down a bit for the New Yorker. Her singles, while still doing streaming numbers, were a bit lackluster to many. Easily, the most memorable of the ones after Invasion was “WAP” with Megan Thee Stallion. Even that song faced a lot of criticism for its ridiculousness. Cardi might not be as in-demand as she was a couple of years ago, but she might be coming back with a vengeance. For some people, it might be cause her biggest competition is nearing the release of her new album.

Cardi B Teases Her Fans

Nicki Minaj’s eagerly-awaited Pink Friday 2, is supposedly dropping on her birthday, December 8. The masses are excited for that record, but Cardi feels that she has been slighted. She expressed this in the video above, hinting that new music might be out before 2023 comes to a close. Cardi seems to be debating with herself if she wants to drop anything, however, a statement toward the end of the audio clip was very telling. “I feel like I gotta talk my s*** a little bit.” That could mean anything and some feel it is because of the Queen. It could also be a reference to the fans on Twitter dragging her for her “low work ethic.” It will be something to watch unfold over the next couple of weeks for sure.

What are your initial thoughts on Cardi B saying she is thinking about dropping music before the end of the year? Are you wanting to hear what she has in the vault? Do you agree with the fans that she is only doing this because of her rival, Nicki Minaj? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below.

Jack Harlow Gets Endorsed By New Kentucky Governor, Teases New Single

November 8, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Jack Harlow has to be one of the most easy-going and likable figures in the hip-hop world. While true aficionados might think he is a bit cheesy, his last record proved quite the opposite. His surprise album Jackman. saw him take a more raw approach dipping his toes closer toward conscious rap. He ditched the bright lights and radio-friendly hits for emotional and more lyrical cuts. While the sales were not there, it was still a great listen and we think it is peaking more interest around Jack.

He seems to be getting ready to ramp up the hype around him once again after a video has been making its rounds. If you check out the Instagram post below, Jack looks to possibly be filming a music video for an upcoming single. What is interesting about this snippet is that it seems to sample Lil Wayne and Drake’s classic from Take Care, “The Motto.” There is no word on a title or when it will be dropping but it sounds like he is going back to the pop rap sound.

Jack Harlow Has A Lot To Be Excited About

On top of this buzz, he is also getting shoutouts from the newly elected Kentucky governor. According to Billboard, Andy Beshear, a Democrat, won the election yesterday. It was a surprise, seeing as the state is usually Republican. In his winning and impassioned speech, he shouted out the Louisville native. “A choice to reject Team R or Team D, and to state clearly that we are one Team Kentucky. A choice of Jack Harlow over Sarah Huckabee Sanders.” Sarah was endorsing the Trump-backed Daniel Cameron which is why Beshear said it this way. Andy and Jack’s relationship dates back to 2022 and they have remained in touch since then.

What are your initial thoughts on Jack Harlow’s upcoming single and getting a shoutout from Governor Andy Beshear? Is the new song going to be a massive hit or a dud? Does Jack have the most likable personality in hip-hop? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.

Nicki Minaj’s New Snippet For “Pink Friday 2” Hints At A Club Banger Ahead: Listen

November 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Even though Nicki Minaj had to delay the release date of her upcoming comeback album, Pink Friday 2, it seems like that just built up even more anticipation for it. Moreover, it’s also probable that she wants to keep feeding fans more content in order to make up for this. With this in mind, the Trinidadian MC kept quite busy over the past few months with artwork teases, vinyl drops, singles, and many more teases. Still, considering all this, we still don’t have a super strong grasp on what this sequel project will sound like cohesively. If a new snippet is anything to go off of, then that means she’s going to bring the bangers in full force.

Furthermore, her latest song snippet- which joins the heap of others– is a hard-hitting and boisterous trap track. Of course, we wouldn’t really expect Nicki Minaj to be anything less than brag-heavy on a record, because she’s definitely earned that respect. Regardless, it’s refreshing to hear her fiery verses over heavy bass and sharp snares that could turn up any club setting. One recommendation, though: some of the bars here need a little more work if the 40-year-old wants to truly impress.

Nevertheless, the energy is palpable, and we’re sure that she will offer much more dense and impressive lyrical performances throughout Pink Friday 2. Also, the delay of a couple of weeks isn’t that bad; at least we’re getting it on Nicki Minaj’s 41st birthday. In fact, she might not even wait that long to get some new material cooking. Recently, Barb teased that she might put out an EP before this new album. Well, she said it would be a great idea, so we’ll see if she takes up the offer.

Meanwhile, Roman recently let out a message to her Barbz, instructing her fans to never threaten someone on her behalf. If you’re ever been online, you know that they can be pretty vicious online. But that won’t change the impact that she makes with this new project, which is set to close 2023 off with a big bang. On that note, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and more updates on Nicki Minaj.

Usher Tantalizes Fans With Possible Guest Appearances For Super Bowl Halftime Show, Says He Has Been Prepping For “30 Years”

November 2, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It is crazy to think we are already halfway through the 2023-2024 NFL season. Before we know it, Super Bowl LVIII will be upon us, and hopefully, it will be another great matchup. Right now we really do not have a good idea about which teams will make it, but we do know who the Halftime Show performer will be. That is R&B superstar, Usher.

We got this news back toward the end of September and it came in the midst of his residency in Las Vegas. There might have been certain people in the building and they saw that he could still get a crowd rowdy. Jay-Z asked him to perform and Usher was naturally thrilled for the opportunity. He recalled this during a recent Billboard interview. During the chat, Usher said this has been an ongoing process for him. It really began when his music career was getting off its feet.

Usher Teases A Whole Bunch In Billboard Interview

“The preparation didn’t start within the last two years of performing in Las Vegas. It really started 30 years ago, and my commitment to it and the journey that I’ve taken musically is why I think I’m given that moment.” It is certainly a special full-circle type of accomplishment, but he also had some other exciting tidbits to share. On top of revealing that he is going to play his hits, there could be someone else joining him onstage. “I’ve also collaborated with a lot of people in the process, so… there’s a celebration there. … I just gave it all to you. You gotta decode it.” That could be literally anyone and we cannot wait to check it out on February 11.

What are your initial thoughts on Usher teasing some possible guests for his Super Bowl LVIII Halftime Show? Will this be the greatest performance of all time? What do you think about how he said he has been preparing for 30 years? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest breaking news around Usher, as well as everything else going around the music world.

Kanye West Shares Surprising New Music Snippet At Fashion Show In London

September 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West’s travels around Europe unlocked something in him, for better or worse considering his recent controversies. Regardless, fans went wild when they heard new reports that Yeezy is working on a new album, which seems to be manifesting. Moreover, he recently previewed new music at the Mowalola SS 2024 Fashion Show in London, and it sounds a tad different to what you might expect. Of course, this isn’t the first time that he worked with trap aesthetics- very far from it, in fact. Still, given suggestions that the 46-year-old is working with older sounds, it struck some fans as an interesting misdirection.

Whether that’s actually the case or we’re getting more of the same Donda 2 filler remains to be seen. Either way, fans split up into two different camps: those who want to hear what Ye does and those who are more interested in what Ye says. As revered as Kanye West’s production is, it’s no surprise that many fans will more closely scrutinize the lyrical content given his antisemitic rhetoric. With lines like “P***y like a Steph three, straight water / Baby, what’s the killer price? Kevin Costner,” it seems like we’ll only find out where he’s going when (or rather, if) the project drops.

New Kanye West Music On The Runway

Another aspect to consider is how relatively low-profile the Chicago MC has been as a result of all of this. Most of the media’s recent coverage around him concerns his relationship and often provocative fit-matching with Bianca Censori. Their travels around Italy netted them a lot of controversy for their actions and public displays. They recently stopped by Germany, too, so it seems that their European travels are taking them everywhere.

Meanwhile, if there really is a rollout cycle here, history suggests that we’re still very far from an album. Yandhi‘s promised and then canceled drop, plus the heap of examples before and after it, created a hole in many fans’ hearts. The difference here, though, is that there’s a lot more at stake, and even an MBTDF moment won’t erase his abhorrent actions. All we can do is sit tight, wait, and see what the hip-hop titan will do with his career and image moving forward. With that in mind, keep checking in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on Kanye West.

Kodak Black Previews New Track In San Diego

September 9, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Fans get ready – there’s a new Kodak Black track on the way. The Florida rapper was performing in San Diego and treated the audience to a preview of a brand-new song. No word on what the song is called or when it’s dropping but the clips posted online tease a heavy beat and some classic Kodak flows. So far this year, Kodak has dropped seven singles. Two of them, “King Snipe” and “Angel Pt. 1”, both charted on the Billboard Hot 100. “King Snipe”, which featured Gucci Mane, peaked at #100 and “Angel Pt. 1”, which was from the Fast X soundtrack, peaked at #65. Furthermore, “Hvn on Earth” featuring Lil Tecca, hit #19 on the Bubbling Under 100.

Are you hyped for new Kodak Black music? And what do you think of his releases so far in 2023? Let us know in the comments. We’ll have more news about the new track as it emerges so be sure to check back with us here at HotNewHipHop.

Kodak Black Celebrates Football Season

However, Black has also been making headlines back in his home state of Florida. Last weekend, the 26-year-old ran out with the FAU Owls, waving to the crowd with gusto ahead of the Owls’ season opener against FCS school Monmouth. Black was born and raised in Pompano Beach, which lies about eight miles south of FAU’s stadium in Boca Raton. Black remained on the sideline to watch FAU score a strong victory over the CAA side. FAU took the game 42-20 thanks to a handful of big performances. QB Casey Thompson threw for 280 yards and five touchdowns. Meanwhile, RB Larry McCammon added 125 yards and a touchdown on the ground. Elsewhere, WR Tony Johnson was Thompson’s primary target through the air, putting up 91 yards and two touchdowns. That included a magnificent 72-yard touchdown in the third quarter.

FAU will look to continue their momentum against Ohio next week. The Bobcats are 1-1 after a loss to San Jose State and a win against Long Island. However, the rest of September will prove fairly challenging for the Owls. After Ohio, they travel to Death Valley to face #9 Clemson. After that, they have another road game against Illinois. Given their place in the AAC, FAU may have to face another ranked team in Tulane later in the season. But for now, the Owls and Kodak Black can enjoy a very strong start to their season.

Nicki Minaj & BIA Seemingly Have Another Collab On The Way

August 31, 2023 by newhiphopnews

BIA and Nicki Minaj recently took to social media to send each other’s fans into a frenzy with the possibility of a new collab. Moreover, the Trinidadian MC recently revealed that she has a verse on one of the Massachusetts-born rapper’s upcoming songs. Considering how much of a tear the Queen has been on as of late, fans are really excited to hear her rip through another feature. Conversely, it could also be the other way around, which is even more exciting to continue breaking BIA through to larger audiences. On her social media, she posted a video of her listening to Minaj’s upcoming single “Last Time I Saw You,” further fueling team-up speculation.

Furthermore, this would follow a pretty solid and consistent rapport up until this point, even if it’s just two officially released songs. The first is a remix of BIA’s song “WHOLE LOTTA MONEY” featuring the 40-year-old. In addition, the two also share verses on the remix of Nicki Minaj’s “Super Freaky Girl,” which features a wealth of other femcees. Either way you slice it, there’s a lot of potential for another link-up to yield fireworks for both artists.

What’s more is that they both have a lot to look forward to in the coming months, whether it’s a specific album rollout or just the next phase of their careers. For example, Nicki Minaj is dropping Pink Friday 2 in November of this year, which has fans salivating for her return. Amid a slew of highly successful singles and guest appearances, the First Lady of Young Money is having the rollout of a lifetime. It’s been a long one, but considering how long we’ve been waiting for a full-length follow-up to 2018’s Queen, this is nothing to complain about.

Meanwhile, the future looks bright for the Really Her star, building up a lot of industry recognition and hit-making potential. Another Nicki support only means more acclaim and eyes on her, so it can never be a bad idea until they start over-saturating it. Right now, though, all we want is more and more, so hopefully this ends up panning out. On that note, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on BIA and Nicki Minaj.

Gillie Da Kid & Joe Budden Resolve Their Beef, Hint At Upcoming Podcast Together

August 17, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Joe Budden and Gillie Da Kid are two of the most respected and well-known hip-hop media figures, and are both great rappers in their own right. However, for quite some time now, beef and bickering got in between them. For hip-hop’s 50th anniversary, though, it looks like the two and Gillie’s Million Dollaz Worth Of Game co-host Wallo267 are setting all that aside. In a new clip, they all teased an upcoming podcast episode where they will all sit down and talk about the game, their history, and probably a lot more. All in all, it’s quite exciting news not just for fans of this kind of content, but for people who want to see more beefs get squashed in rap music.

After all, it’s a phenomenon that social media has taken full advantage of through clout-chasing and how it boosts sales. In fact, it’s been a common trend for feuds to raise album sales and interest in artists for generations, so it’s not new by any means. For those unaware, Joe Budden and Gillie got into it over fame and wealth, Budden’s past, and their podcasts’ success and controversies. While there’s still a lot to discuss and correct there, it’s heartening to see that it’ll be a dialogue, not an argument.

Furthermore, Wallo spoke in the clip of the importance and weight behind this particular team-up. “This is what you look like when you’re two rappers and it’s over,” he remarked, still keeping up with their cheeky banter when Joe Budden pulled up to Gillie’s home. “We celebrating the 50th year of hip-hop, these is two ancient dinosaurs of hip-hop. This n***a made $3,700 his whole rap career. Joe probably made about $77,000.”

Meanwhile, given how outspoken Budden in particular has been about hip-hop’s 50th, we’re sure that’ll be an important part of the conversation. Media like this aims to analyze, assess, and contribute a compelling and entertaining view of the art form we love. Considering the sheer talent between the three of them, it’s amazing that their three heads will come together to make something special. For more news and the latest updates on Wallo267, Gillie Da King, and Joe Budden, log back into HNHH.
