Drake Allegedly Ghosted TikTok Star Meals By Cugine

November 23, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Drake is someone who is very busy and always has a lot on his plate. Overall, he just got off of a very popular tour. Furthermore, he is going back out on tour next year with J. Cole. He dropped For All The Dogs last month and he was even able to come through with a project last Friday. This six-song EP is called Scary Hours 3 and contains some amazing tracks. At this stage, Drizzy is just elevating his cache, and fans are excited to see his next chapter, whenever that may be.

Of course, these are the things that make him a busy man. Unfortunately, he does not have time for everyone. Sometimes, he may even make commitments or some plans, only for them to fall through. At the end of the day, this is normal. Plans change all the time and when you are a busy person, your commitments are always going to fluctuate. Unfortunately, a TikTok star named Danny Mondello, otherwise known as Meals By Cugine, learned this the hard way.

Drake Called Out

While appearing a game show called “Rent Free,” Mondello revealed how he was talking to Drake in his Instagram DMs. Drizzy wanted to recommend a restaurant in Toronto called Sotto Sotto. The TikToker took this as a sign that Drake actually wanted to collaborate or even just have a meal together. However, the man says he was left on read in the end. Perhaps there was a breakdown in communication here. Simply, maybe Drake wanted to give a recommendation and just leave it at that.

Sexyy Red Responds After Facing Heat For Pushing A Ballet Teacher To Play Her Music To 5-Year-Olds

November 21, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Sexyy Red’s music is certainly not everyone’s vibe. You can appreciate the fact that she is honest about what she creates. However, on the flip side, once you become a popular figure you have to realize that your actions are under a microscope and have a ripple effect on impressionable people. That is certainly what is going on here. There is an extremely viral video going around TikTok that first hit the platform on November 20. A ballet instructor posted a nine-minute video explaining her frustrations about her kids vehemently arguing with her during their sessions.

The 22-year-old was brought to tears after all of the disrespect she has taken lately at her job. Even when she thinks that the parents will understand, they even retaliate and get defensive. The students are five years old and the teacher detailed how they asked her to play “SkeeYee” and “Pound Town” by Sexyy Red. She also highlighted that they never follow instructions, are throwing things at each other, and even twerking.

How Does This Make Sexyy Red Look?

@saaaaaaaii1

HELPPP!!!! Im calling out to all parents educators teachers MOMS DADS WHOEVER please take time to work with your children stop listening to adult music around them spend time with them we need CHANGE #fyp #fypp #eduation #parents #parenting #school #help #trending #makeachange

♬ Lofi/Fashionable/Rose Piano/10 minutes(1455693) – nightbird_bgm

Sexyy initially responded to the teacher telling her to continue to play her music and “stfu” (shut the f*** up). According to AllHipHop, fans were very thrown off by the rapper’s comments about the video. Because of all of this, Red tweeted, “Ima make some kidz bop songs for yall fr.” Even though she had a change of heart, it still could put her in a bad spot. Especially with a child on the way, it does not look too good to push her messages in her music to the younger generation.

What are your initial thoughts on this latest video of this ballet instructor ranting about her kids misbehaving and asking to listen to Sexyy Red? How does this make the rapper look? How much of it falls on her and how much of this falls on the parents? 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. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest breaking news around Sexyy Red, as well as everything else going on around the music world.

Lil Baby Tried To Charge $200K For Fit Check Video

November 20, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Lil Baby is always about his money. He’s someone who’s aware that time is money, and he’s not making any exceptions. In the ever-evolving landscape of celebrity interactions, rapper Lil Baby recently made headlines for a seemingly random encounter with a fan. The situation unfolded when a bold admirer approached the artist, inquiring about the cost of Lil Baby’s outfit. “Hey we’re here with Lil Baby, how much your fit cost?” the fan asked while recording. In what appeared to be a lighthearted response, Lil Baby stunned both the fan and onlookers by proclaiming, “Aye, you need to pay me $200 bands to talk to me,” before casually walking away. Fans reacted and some understood where Baby was coming from. “Time cost money once yalll understand that you will start to acknowledge more,” one person commented on the video posted to social media.

Lil Baby, known for his chart-topping hits and unapologetic persona, has cultivated a reputation for being candid and straightforward. However, this particular incident took many by surprise, as fans grappled with the notion of paying a hefty sum for a brief encounter and a simple question about fashion. “Baby corny for that ngl,” one person commented. “Lmaoo he sound like he just lost 200,000 at the casino that’s why he saying 200,000 for a fit check video lmao,” another person speculated.

The debate surrounding the $200,000 fit check TikTok video raises intriguing questions about the evolving dynamics between celebrities and their admirers. In an age where social media allows fans unprecedented access to their favorite stars, the blurred lines between personal space and public persona become increasingly challenging to navigate. While some fans viewed Lil Baby’s demand as a humorous and exaggerated display of his extravagant lifestyle, others criticized the rapper for what they perceived as an unnecessary and distasteful act. “Hate when celebrities act like this,” one person said. “LMFAO, 200k for a 10 second video? Bro inflating his worth,” another commented.

Whether Lil Baby’s demand was a genuine request or a tongue-in-cheek remark, one thing is certain. The incident has sparked conversations about the price of access to our favorite celebrities in an era dominated by social media and instant connectivity. What are your thoughts? Was a fit check video worth it to pay by the fan?

North West Recreates Classic Kim Kardashian Look In Adorable New TikTok

November 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

North West is already becoming pretty well known online for her sense of humor. She’s also a pretty big fan of playing dress-up as she showed off with her variety of Halloween costumes. She celebrated the holiday with a Clueless look alongside her mother and followed it up by joining some friends for a Cheetah Girls inspired group costume. Many of her best and funniest moments have come from the joint TikTok account she shares with Kim Kardashian, and that was the case again earlier this week.

This time, North and a friend recreated a classic pair of looks that Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton sported in the 2000’s. North transforms into her mother with a gray tracksuit and hoodie complete with some dark black sunglasses. The post has Kim’s song “Jam (Turn It Up)” attached and while comments are disabled that hasn’t stopped fans from sharing the video all across other platforms. Check out a highlight from the photoshoot below.

North West Serves Up Yet Another Viral Outfit

Even after Halloween, North was still making waves for her outfits. She shared a photoshoot dressed up as Tiana from The Princess And The Frog that had fans in absolute awe of the young social media star. But her notable fashion moments haven’t all been playing dress-up. She also has an affinity for streetwear and has been spotted stepping out in some great vintage designer fits.

On a recent episode of The Kardashians, however, fans were talking about North for entirely different reasons. In a clip from the show she’s seen taking a bit out of an onion like it’s an apple. Kim doesn’t seem to be phased by the move either, even implying North often likes to eat vegetables like fruit. What do you think of North West dressing up in one of her mother’s classic looks for a TikTok? Let us know in the comment section below.

PinkyDoll Claps Back At Critics Of Her Music

November 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

PinkyDoll has responded to people criticizing her foray into music. “Y’all saying I don’t got no bars. Y’all saying I can’t rap,” Pinky said before rapping along to her song “Ice Cream So Good”. The track was created earlier this year as a promotional endeavor with FashionNova. It was widely panned for being incredibly generic and also having the additional cringe factor of being a literal advertisement.

Pinky’s response came after she recently previewed her new song “Yes Popcorn”, another reference to her NPC streams. Once again, it was widely panned for its generic beat and weak hook. In the clip Pinky previewed, all can be heard is an autotuned hook that repeats “Yes Popcorn” and “Gang Gang” over and over. “As a child I thought 2023 would have flying cars, robot maids, and teleportation. Not…whatever the f-ck the sh-t is,” one person derided the track on social media.

People Raise More “Light Skin Fishing” Allegations Against PinkyDoll

However, another criticism being leveled at the TikTok star is that she has done nothing to address the “Light Skin Fishing” allegations made against earlier this year. “She still using that light filter proudly , one person noted on social media while reacting to Pinky’s response video. It was an appearance at the Streamys in August that initially started the controversy. Fans were quick to point out that Pinky was much darker IRL than she appeared in her content. This led people to speculate that the content creator was utilizing lighting and makeup to lighten her skin to garner more attention online. While Sinon is a Black woman, there have long been arguments that lighter-skinned Black women find more success compared to their darker-skinned counterparts.

Pinky later addressed these claims in a conversation with TMZ. “Well you know, when I go into the sun, I get a little darker. But I love to be a Black woman, what can you do?” she began. “I think they are just hating.” The interviewer quickly moved on to a different topic without challenging Pinky’s answer. However, nearly six months later, it’s clear that Pinky intends to do nothing about the hotly-debated criticism being leveled against her.

TikTok Launches ‘Add to Music App’ Feature, Enabling Seamless Song Saves to Streaming Services

November 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

In a groundbreaking move for music enthusiasts, TikTok has introduced “Add to Music App,” a revolutionary feature enabling users in the US and UK to save discovered songs directly to their preferred streaming service effortlessly. This innovation, in partnership with major platforms like Amazon Music and Spotify, enhances TikTok’s reputation as a global hub for music discovery.

The Add to Music App feature simplifies the process for fans to celebrate and revisit their favorite tunes from the For You feed. Users will now find an “Add Song” option next to track details at the bottom of TikTok videos, allowing them to save the song to their chosen streaming service seamlessly. The default playlist option is available, or users can opt to add the track to a new or existing playlist of their creation. This user-friendly feature is accessible from the For You feed and an artist’s Sound Detail Page.

“TikTok is already the world’s most powerful platform for music discovery and promotion, which helps artists connect with our global community to drive engagement with their music. Add to Music App takes this process a step further, creating a direct link between discovery on TikTok and consumption on a music streaming service, making it easier than ever for music fans to enjoy the full length song on the music streaming service of their choice, thereby generating even greater value for artists and rightsholders,” said Ole Obermann, Global Head of Music Business Development at TikTok.

“Some of the best parts of being a music lover are those serendipitous moments when you discover a new song or artist that you connect with instantly. At Amazon Music, we’re looking to make it easier to convert those moments into enduring fandom. That’s why we worked together with TikTok on the Add to Music App feature, which makes it easier for fans to listen to the music they love and for artists to build fandom,” said Karolina Joynathsing, Director of Business Development for Amazon Music.

“No matter where you are, or the moment you’re in, we want to create less work to get to the audio you love. That means being everywhere our users are and creating seamless ways to save songs to Spotify to enjoy when and how they choose to listen. As the world’s largest audio streaming subscription service, our mission is to bring artists and fans together, so you can listen to more of what you love, across any platform or device. Essentially, you won’t need to find audio to suit the moment. It will find you,” said Sten Garmark, Vice President, Global Head of Consumer Experience at Spotify.

Add to Music App is currently available in the US and UK, with plans for a broader rollout in the future.

What Is The JID ‘Surround Sound Challenge’ On TikTok?

November 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

One of last year’s standout rap albums was JID’s The Forever Story. Fueled by singles like “Surround Sound,” “Dance Now,” and “Kody Blu 31,” the album was a critical and fan favorite and commercial success for the Atlanta rapper, peaking at No. 12 on the Billboard 200 — his best-performing album to date.

This year, though, The Forever Story is receiving renewed attention, thanks in large part to the “Surround Sound Challenge” on TikTok set to the song. So, just what is the Surround Sound Challenge?

Its alternate name, the Ceiling Challenge, offers a hint: Users have been taping their phones to the ceilings of their homes, classrooms, offices, and even retail establishments in order to get a top-down view as they dance to the beat of JID’s hyperactive single. The team at Dreamville shared some of their favorite examples on the label’s TikTok account:

♬ Surround Sound – JID

Meanwhile, the label’s president, Ib, noted the song’s recent streaming resurgence as a result of its TikTok popularity, joking on Twitter (never X), “Crazy. Great music never dies it just needs a little tik tok.”

He ain’t wrong. TikTok has increasingly become the launching pad for older or overlooked singles, juicing the stats for tracks like Flyana Boss‘ “You Wish” and Tyla’s “Water,” taking them from relative unknowns to charting major label artists.

Rubi Rose Twerks In Mirror, Old Man Stays To Watch It All: Watch

November 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Rubi Rose may seem like just another pretty face on the outside, but she has done her due diligence to make a name for herself. She has a music career that is still on the upswing, as well as her beauty and fashion ventures. Recently, she expressed her interest in making waves in the video game world. Maybe the most highly-anticipated video game in recent memory, GTA VI, is finally in development. Rockstar, the company that makes the game, announced that the first trailer will be out sometime next month.

If you know anything about the last installment, the loading screen features a blond woman in nothing but a bikini. One person who felt they were fit to model for the job was Rubi. Someone said that they needed something “JUICY” while booting up the game. Rubi responded, “Me, perhaps.” There have been no developments on that front since then. While beauty is a big part of what she does, it is no surprise she was game for the gig. It is also why this new video is not shocking at all.

Rubi Rose Pays The Man No Mind

Rubi looks to be at a gym of some kind. She shared the video on her TikTok, rehearsing for a show or music video most likely. The artist was practicing her patented twerking with an old man hanging around in the background. In fact, he looked locked in on her and clearly was enjoying “the show.” However, it appears that Rubi did not mind it at all. The caption of the post says, “He stayed and watched my whole rehearsal lol.”

What are your initial thoughts on Rubi Rose’s rehearsal? Are you surprised she did nothing to address the old man watching her? Do you think she should have done something?

How To Save Songs From TikTok Videos Directly To Spotify And Apple Music

November 14, 2023 by newhiphopnews

The connection between TikTok and music has always been strong, from the Musical.ly merger in 2017 to the platform being used as a music promotion tool today. Now, TikTok has made it easier for fans to keep track of songs they hear on TikTok outside of the app: As TechChrunch notes, the platform has launched a new feature that allows users to save songs from TikTok videos to their accounts on Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon Music.

The feature, dubbed “Add To Music App,” was introduced in a TikTok press release shared today (November 14). It notes in part:

“The feature will appear as a button that says Add Song next to a track name at the bottom of a TikTok video in the For You Feed, inviting users to save the song to the music streaming service of their choice. The first time a user presses the Add Song button, they can choose to save it to their preferred music streaming service.

The track will then be saved to a default playlist in the preferred music streaming service, but users can also choose to add the track to a new playlist or an existing playlist that they have created. Following the first use of the Add to Music App feature, the music app selected will then become the default music streaming service for future track saves, although users can select to change the default music streaming service at any time under settings. Users can also use the Add to Music App feature from an artist’s Sound Detail Page.”

Add To Music App is being rolled out to users in the US and UK, while users in other areas are set to get the feature later on. Learn more about Add To Music App here.

Travis Barker Gets Backlash For Drumming In Kourtney Kardashian’s Delivery Room

November 10, 2023 by newhiphopnews

A video of Travis Barker drumming in a hospital delivery room while his wife actively gave birth has been garnering a healthy dose of negative attention online. The video, in which Barker is seen drumming along to his unborn child’s heartbeat, has been described as “the greatest ick” by some fans. In general, fans complained about what they saw as an obnoxious behavior, with many taking the opportunity to take shots at celebrities in general. However, one person who didn’t appear to mind it was Kardashian herself, who reshared the video to her Instagram story.

Kardashian gave birth to the couple’s first child, a boy later revealed to be named Rocky Thirteen. Both parents have children from their previous relationships. “Kourtney is over the moon about her son’s arrival,” a source told PEOPLE. “Her pregnancy took a stressful turn towards the end. She is happy to just be able to snuggle her baby boy now. She feels so blessed.” The source also says Barker “keeps being amazing,” and that “he brings her favorite, healthy food to the hospital. He makes sure she has everything that she needs. He is obsessed with their baby boy.”

Kardashian Grills Tristan Thompson

One person, however, who is not in Kardashian’s good books, is Tristan Thompson. This is at least according to the latest episode of The Kardashians. There is certainly a spectrum of acceptance towards Thompson amongst the family. Furthermore, Kourtney definitely slots in at its lowest end. “Tristan and I really have not connected and I just can’t fake it,” Kourtney told Kylie Jenner ahead of a sitdown with Thompson in this week’s episode. For her part, Kylie also expressed anxiety over Thompson’s impending visit, giving Kourtney at least one ally in the family.

During their chat, Kourtney asked Thompson if he “feels anything” after he cheats. Thompson, who has previously said that he is “now in a place to own his mistakes”, claimed he felt “disgusted”. However, Kourtney jumped on the answer, demanding to know why, if that was the case, he would cheat so frequently. Thompson, at this stage of his career, is better known for his infidelity and allegations of neglect than anything he does on the court.
