Funk Flex Continues To Go After DJ Envy

October 14, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Funk Flex has continued his crusade against DJ Envy. On Friday, Flex posted the “Arthur Fist” meme with the text “Nobody: [Blank space]. DJ Envy: Damn Flex keeps posting.” Furthermore, Flex included the caption. ““WE JUST GIVING A VOICE TO THE VOICELESS THATS ALL! [shrug emoji] @DJENVY ALL GOOD RIGHT? IM JUST TRYING TO PRESENT BOTH SIDES? OK GOOD BUDDY?”

Flex has gone after Envy hard amid the accusations of real estate fraud that have been leveled at Envy in recent months. Anthony Barone and Anthony Martini claim that Envy and two others defrauded them out of $1.5 million in investment for an apartment complex that never came to be. The two men claim they invested in two real estate companies associated with Envy, who never followed through on the project. Elsewhere, he is also accused of utilizing investments to buy properties in New Jersey. He is accused of later undervaluing these properties before flipping them or renting them out.

Meanwhile, Envy’s allegations made their way to The Breakfast Club, the radio show that he co-hosts. “I think you should listen to your attorneys. Listen, so Ceasar and myself did seminars. Now the reason I did these seminars is because I wanted to uplift my community. I wanted to teach my community about real estate, things that I didn’t know when I was first buying my first home. I wanted to teach our community about investing in generational wealth,” Charlamagne Tha God told Envy.

Despite the warning from his friend, Envy had to speak out. “I do understand how people feel if they gave him money because I gave him a lot of money. I didn’t see a dollar of return. For anyone to say that I was involved, that’s totally not true. I would never, I been on radio for close to 30 years, and never in my 30 years time did I do nothing but try to uplift people in different ways with a business mind. I would never take a dollar from somebody,” Envy shot back, staunchly defending his actions.

Drake Responds To “Aubrey Angel” Who Doesn’t Feel His New Music

October 13, 2023 by newhiphopnews

In a recent interview of The Breakfast Club, they invited a woman calling herself an “Aubrey Angel,” onto the show to discuss Drake. She claims to be a day 1 stan from all the way back when it “wasn’t cool” to like the rapper. In the segment, she explains that since his 2016 album Views, she just hasn’t been able to feel his music as much. While that’s a sentiment expressed by some, her comments were largely met with disagreement. Eventually, the discussion got heated enough that Drake himself weighed in.

“was this interview already on the schedule? Who is this…” Drake commented underneath a post of the clip. Expectedly, fans of the rapper rushed to his defense. They called her out for being just one person with an opinion and pointed out that she didn’t represent all his fans. Rapper and singer Toosii took to the comments to weigh in on Drizzy’s side as well. “People have this thing where they paint this definitive picture in their head that the artist you were 5 years ago that’s who you always are. People change, things change. He can make the same kind of music but how is that going to resonate to your now mid 30 year old body?” he said. Check out the full response and fan reactions below.

Drake just released his new album For All The Dogs. The project is expected to be absolutely dominant commercially, as most of his projects are. The record itself is a shoe in to top the Billboard 200 and expected to push almost as many units as the rest of the top 10 combined.

Two songs from the album are also competing with each other on the Hot 100. “First Person Shooter” with J. Cole and “IDGAF” with Yeat are both contending for the top spot. After “Shooter” emerged as the early favorite “IDGAF” began to creep up and the songs are now neck and neck. What do you think of Drake and Toosii’s responses to a fan saying she fell off his music after Views? Let us know in the comment section below.

Charlamagne Tha God Claims Yung Miami’s “Caresha Please” Didn’t Deserve BET Hip Hop Award

October 11, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The 2023 BET Hip Hops Awards aired last night, and fans watched countless artists take home wins for their contributions to the genre. City Girls also took the stage to perform a couple of their tracks, “No Bars” and “Face Down.” The duo appeared to be shining bright as ever, just ahead of the announcement of their new album, R.A.W. According to them, the project is scheduled to drop sometime this month, but fans have yet to hear a specific release date.

The new album isn’t the only thing Yung Miami has to be excited about, however. She also took home Best Hip Hop Platform at the awards show, passing nominees like Drink Champs, The Joe Budden Podcast, and more. Caresha Please won the award last year too, which managed to ruffle some feathers. N.O.R.E. even shared his thoughts on her win publicly, making it clear that he wasn’t pleased. “So nobody gonna say nothing bout the podcast /media award?” he wrote. “Ok me neither!!!” It appears as though N.O.R.E. isn’t the only fellow nominee that wasn’t thrilled about Yung Miami’s win either.

Charlamagne Tha God recently shared his take on the situation, suggesting that someone besides Yung Miami was behind her win. “We gotta stop,” he said as his co-host read the winner out loud. “I love Caresha, I love Yung Miami to death, but come on now. Two years in a row? Like, I got mad love for Caresha but you’ve got platforms that come out daily, and you’ve got platforms that come out weekly.” He continued, suggesting that Diddy pulled some strings to allow for her to win.

“I love Caresha Please, but was that sponsored by Deleon?” he added. It seems as though Yung Miami is sick of that kind of speculation, taking to The Neighborhood Talk‘s comments section to air her frustrations. “YALL LEAVE ME TF ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!” she wrote. What do you think of Charlamagne Tha God’s take? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

DJ Envy’s Fraud Allegations Addressed On “The Breakfast Club”: Watch

October 11, 2023 by newhiphopnews

DJ Envy has once again found himself at the centre of controversy. Rather than letting the fraud allegations around his work in the real estate industry run rampant, The Breakfast Club host decided to address things on the air this morning (October 11), though not everyone tuning in thought that was such a good idea. “Let me explain some things,” Envy began before noting that his attorneys have specifically asked him not to speak out.

“I think you should listen to your attorneys,” Charlamagne Tha God advised his long-time co-host. “Listen, so Ceasar and myself did seminars,” the 46-year-old began to explain, ignoring his friend’s comment. “Now the reason I did these seminars is because I wanted to uplift my community. I wanted to teach my community about real estate, things that I didn’t know when I was first buying my first home. I wanted to teach our community about investing in generational wealth,” Envy went on to explain. According to the DJ, Ceasar was taking money from people attending these events, which he wasn’t aware of.

“I do understand how people feel if they gave him money because I gave him a lot of money,” the father of two emphasized to Charlamagne. “I didn’t see a dollar of return. For anyone to say that I was involved, that’s totally not true,” Envy doubled down. “I would never, I been on radio for close to 30 years, and never in my 30 years time did I do nothing but try to uplift people in different ways with a business mind. I would never take a dollar from somebody.”

Outside of the eyebrow-raising allegations coming out against DJ Envy at this time, the media personality has also been feuding online with Tyrese. Things have noticeably calmed down in recent weeks, but as summer came to a close, we saw the grown men trading shots on social media constantly. Read all about that situation at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Charlamagne Tha God Called Birdman To Squash Beef, Radio Host Claims

October 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Charlamagne Tha God told HipHopDX that all it took to end his beef with Birdman was a lengthy phone call. “He’s an OG that I look up to as far as what he’s built, as far as being a mogul. You can’t deny him,” Charlamagne told the outlet at the BET Hip Hop Awards. “[Big Bank] put us on the phone one time and I was able to tell him that [I look up to what he’s done]. It was just mutual respect. That was a fulfilling conversation for me.”

The beef between the two industry icons dates back to 2016. It stemmed from an interview that lasted just a few minutes. Birdman felt that Charlamagne and his radio co-hosts didn’t respect his name and status. Later he would drop a single, “Respek”, that called back to the whole debacle. While the beef went dormant over the years, it never truly went away until now.

Funk Flex Calls Out Charlamagne Over 2001 Sexual Assault Allegations

Meanwhile, Funk Flex recently called out Charlamagne over stories from earlier this year about Charlamagne looking to end the ongoing lawsuit he is facing over 2001 allegations of sexual assault. “UMMMMM? YOU CAUGHT ANOTHER (NEW) LAWSUIT APRIL 21, 2023? I DONT THINK U SETTLED THAT? @cthagod (AND YOU CALLING PEOPLE PATHETIC?) LET YOUR LAWYER KNOW I CAN TALK ABOUT THIS CAUSE VIBE MAG ALREADY DID?” Flex was a little off the mark. The April articles simply spoke about Charlamagne’s intention to end the case, not a new lawsuit that he was facing.

Rape allegations leveled at radio host Charlamagne Tha God have been around for several years. Jessica Reid has long accused Charlamagne of raping her in 2001 when she was 15 years old. In 2018, Reid took her case to the South Carolina Supreme Court. She claimed that Charlamagne had continued to “violate” her on his radio show and social media. While Charlamagne has vehemently and consistently denied the allegations, Reid sued him in late 2022.

Charlamagne Tha God Says He And Birdman Have Squashed Their Beef After That Infamous 2016 Interview

October 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Birdman and Charlamagne seem to have made peace. Back in 2016, rapper and Cash Money Records founder Birdman appeared on an episode of The Breakfast Club, however the interview was cut short after Birdman famously told host Charlamagne Tha God, “put some respect on my name.” Birdman quickly walked out of the interview, however, this particular line spawned several memes.

But in an interview with HipHopDX taken from the 2023 BET Hip-Hop Awards, Charlamagne suggested that he and Birdman have cleared the air.

He prefaced by saying he has nothing but love for the rapper, regardless of how the infamous interview turned out.

“He’s an OG that I look up to as far as what he’s built, as far as being a mogul,” said Charlamagne. “You can’t deny him.”

Charlamagne revealed he and Birdman spoke over the phone, after Big Bank, who hosts the Big Facts podcast, put them in touch over the phone. Apparently, the conversation lasted about five minutes, which is slightly longer than the three minutes Birdman stayed in The Breakfast Club studio during the infamous interview.

[Big Bank] put us on the phone one time and I was able to tell him that [I look up to what he’s done],” said Charlamagne. “It was just mutual respect. That was a fulfilling conversation for me.”

Sherri Shepherd Shades Sexyy Red: “Let Them Imagine Something”

October 5, 2023 by newhiphopnews

During a recent appearance on The Breakfast Club, Sherri Shepherd shared her thoughts on Sexyy Red. The 25-year-old hitmaker is known for her raunchy songs and laid-back persona, and it’s safe to say that her music isn’t for everyone. Lyrics to tracks like “Pound Town” and “Looking For The Hoes” are enough to incite gasps from even the most open-minded listeners, including Shepherd.

According to Shepherd, she just can’t get behind the St. Louis-born performer’s explicit lyrics. “Oh my God, I was like “what are these girls talking about nowadays?” she says of hearing “Pound Town” for the first time. “When did talking about your booty hole start being sexy to people?” As for whether or not Shepherd would be willing to have Sexyy Red as a guest on SHERRI, it looks like another ‘no’ from her.

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

“When did just getting money, and showing your booty hole to dudes become sexy? Me, I come from the school of let them imagine something. Don’t just come and show him every day,” the personality continued. She then described how things have changed since she was Sexyy Red’s age, noting how she doesn’t get current trends. Shepherd says that although they had their fair share of “wild” music back in the day, they kept things balanced. She acknowledges that there are some current artists putting out wholesome tracks, but she doesn’t think there are “enough.”

Shepherd’s take on the “SkeeYee” artist has some fans up in arms, while other users understand where she’s coming from. Obviously, everyone’s entitled to their own opinions, and can listen to and support whoever they want. With that being said, many note that Sexyy Red has been a major target for criticism in recent months, despite her staying in her own lane. What do you think of Sherri Shepherd’s take on Sexyy Red?

Charlamagne Tha God & Drake Beef “Planned,” Radio Host Jokes As “Slime You Out” Goes No. 1

September 26, 2023 by newhiphopnews

After disappointing us with several delays, Drake is under a lot of pressure right now to finish his For All The Dogs album prior to its October 6 release date. Though he seems focused on the task at hand, commentary from his critics is obviously bothering the Scorpion rapper at least a little bit, as he couldn’t hold back from lashing out at Charlamagne Tha God insulting his project’s first single. According to the media personality, “Slime You Out” featuring SZA wasn’t hard enough for him, and he didn’t seem to see the usual crowd of obsessed fans quoting the song’s lyrics until days after it dropped.

Drake had plenty of words for Tha God on his Instagram Story after catching wind of the diss, including calling him a “f**king goof.” Even with the shots fired between the two, the lyricist still came out on top as “Slime You Out” landed on top of the Billboard chart this week. Charlamagne addressed this news on Tuesday’s (September 26) episode of The Breakfast Club, suggesting that he and Champagne Papi have been planning their attacks on each other this whole time.

Charlamagne Addresses Drake’s Latest W on The Breakfast Club

“I told y’all yesterday that Drake and I plan these things every time he drops certain records. He wants me to hate on them because all noise is great noise nowadays,” the podcaster joked on air. “And I told y’all the play but nobody believes me ’cause I’m lying. But you should believe me even when I’m lying.” As AllHipHop notes, Drizzy’s latest achievement puts him just one spot behind Michael Jackson for most No. 1 male soloist records.

Charlamagne Tha God isn’t the only one who’s found himself at odds with Drake this month. While he was performing in Houston recently, some are under the impression that the Canadian attempted to diss Megan Thee Stallion after mentioning her name in a shoutout before awkwardly clarifying that he was talking about someone else. Read what internet sleuths speculate could be the rap diva’s response at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Why Are DJ Envy & Tyrese Beefing?

September 21, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Tyrese and DJ Envy have been at odds for a while, but their feud reached a new level of intensity after the singer’s recent appearance on The Breakfast Club. The two men exchanged heated words on air and social media, leaving fans wondering what caused their fallout and if they could ever reconcile. Here’s a breakdown of the beef and its origins.

The Breakfast Club Interview

On September 7, 2023, Tyrese joined The Breakfast Club for an interview, where he claimed he was on an “apology tour” and wanted to clear the air with DJ Envy and Charlamagne tha God. However, things got heated when DJ Envy confronted Tyrese about some disrespectful comments he allegedly made to his wife in the past. Tyrese denied the accusations and said he was only trying to help their marriage by sending them positive messages.

DJ Envy also expressed his disappointment in Tyrese for not reaching out to him during his divorce from ex-wife Samantha Lee and his public mental health issues. Tyrese said he felt that Envy did not support him during his dark times and accused him of being fake. DJ Envy stated he wanted to remember Tyrese as a brother who helped his relationship, not as someone going through it. He also said that some of Tyrese’s words deserved him to “box his mouth.”

After the interview, Tyrese took to Instagram to post a series of videos, where he defended himself and called out DJ Envy for lying and threatening him. He said he had receipts to prove that he never disrespected DJ Envy’s wife and that he was always respectful and supportive of their marriage. He also said he was ready for “all the smoke” with DJ Envy and challenged him to a fight. Tyrese also accused Envy of being jealous of him and his success. He said that Envy was insecure about his own marriage and that he was projecting his issues onto him. He also mentioned that the radio host was just trying to go viral by creating drama with him.

Tyrese Throws The Peace Flag

On September 17, 2023, Tyrese changed his tone and posted an Instagram Live video, where he waved a white flag and said he wanted peace with DJ Envy. He said he was taking the higher road and did not want any problems. He also said he respected Charlamagne tha God more than DJ Envy, but he was willing to bury the hatchet with both of them. Further, Tyrese said he was going through a lot of things when he was having his mental health issues and that he was trying to navigate through them. He said he wanted to clear his name and did not mean any harm. He also hoped that DJ Envy would accept his apology and move on.

As of now, it is unclear if DJ Envy has responded to Tyrese’s peace offer or if they have resolved their beef. The two men have a history of friendship and collaboration, but they also have a history of conflict and misunderstanding. Hopefully, they can find a way to mend their relationship and move forward with respect and love.

Charlamagne Tha God Blasts Kenneth Petty’s “Lame” Offset Feud

September 21, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The Breakfast Club joined the online debate and addressed the Kenneth Petty and Offset situation, with Charlamagne Tha God in particular having some harsh words for the former. For those unaware, Nicki Minaj’s husband wanted to confront the rapper at this year’s VMAs last week and threatened him along with some of his friends. Eventually, he jabbed at the Georgia MC by telling him to plan his own funeral. While ‘Set seemed to laugh the whole thing off, that reaction didn’t stop people from criticizing this general approach and attitude. Moreover, Charlamagne spoke on how Petty is too old to be petty now, and recalled a time during which the Internet didn’t prompt people to boast about their street life.

“You lame, like, there’s nothing fly about that type of behavior,” Charlamagne Tha God remarked to the airwaves and his co-hosts. “The reality is that he earned that, ’cause you have the audacity to be acting like that on the FBI’s Internet. You 45 years old, you already on probation, you have a crazy criminal record already. You telling somebody to plan their funeral online?

“Like, you begging to go to prison,” Charlamagne Tha God continued. “And it’s incredible to me that all these street dudes have let the Internet make them forget street rules. Number one, you should’ve been let go of all the childish ways of the street, first and foremost. That’s number one. But number two, I remember a time where folks wouldn’t talk about any dirt over the phone. Now y’all recording yourselves in 4K and posting it online? I know law enforcement be having a ball looking at these n***as.”

Meanwhile, turns out that Petty’s actions resulted in more harsh consequences than he probably expected. After these threats became big news, a Los Angeles federal judge ordered him to serve 120 days of home detention. Maybe this is where the buck stops, but what’s clear is that nobody’s really looking for this to go any further, other than perhaps the 45-year-old. Regardless, for more news on Kenneth Petty, Offset, and Charlamagne Tha God, come back to HNHH.
