Cardi B Proudly Shows Off Gap In Her Teeth After Veneer Falls Victim To Hard Bagel

March 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Cardi B is easily one of the biggest women rappers in the entire world. Overall, she is someone who has delivered some massive hits to the masses. However, she only has one album to show for it. Although she has teased a new project in the past, it has been close to six years since the release of her debut. Luckily for fans, new music is on the horizon. We recently got the “Like What (Freestyle)” and now, we will be getting a track dubbed “Enough” on Friday. Needless to say, there are reasons for her fans to be excited.

With her new music on the horizon, it seems as though Cardi B is trying to have some fun. For instance, she has been active on TikTok, a platform that may or may not be banned in the United States. On her TikTok, she will talk about her daily life, regardless of what’s going on. In the video clip below, Cardi had a surprise for the fans who waited until the very end. As you can see, she ended up losing one of her veneers. How? You may ask. Well, it was the fault of a hard bagel that gave Cardi some trouble.

The chipped tooth occurred on the top row of her teeth towards the sides. We’re sure Cardi B will be able to get that fixed up fairly fast. After all, dentists have become accustomed to this kind of stuff. Practically everyone in the media world has veneers, and these fixes are common. Hopefully, it doesn’t tamper with Cardi’s ability to drop new music (it most certainly won’t).

Let us know your expectations for the new Cardi B album, in the comments section down below. Do you believe it will be able to live up to the expectations? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will continue to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists and their upcoming projects.

House of Representatives Pass Bill to Ban TikTok in U.S., Bill Heads to Senate

March 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The House of Representatives has passed a bill furthering the fight to ban TikTok.

The bill, named the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, was supported by Democrats and Republicans, while others on both sides of the aisle cited free speech issues.

According to NBC, the bill now heads to the Senate with an uncertain future. President Joe Biden stated he would sign the bill if it made it to him.

The U.S. is hoping to force TikTok’s Chinese owner to sell the app to fight a ban. America believes China can impact national security, free speech, and the social media industry.

TikTok is owned by ByteDance. The U.S. would hope for a sale within six months.

Users have stated the bill would alter their business and content creators. Others believe it could cause political problems for young voters in an election year.

Those voting against it were Rep. Ruben Gallego, a Democrat running for Arizona’s Senate seat, who stated, “It’s vital we find a balance that both protects our national security interests and respects our fundamental rights. This is not that.”

In addition to the bill, New York City is taking TikTok, YouTube, and other social media applications to court. The city, led by Mayor Eric Adams, cites the aforementioned, along with Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, and more, as a contribution to a “nationwide youth mental health crisis.”

The lawsuit is filed in the California Superior Court, stating the social applications are purposefully designed to be addictive to children and teenagers. The suit follows the Health Commissioner’s Advisory that DOHMH Commissioner Dr. Vasan issued last month, citing the continued use of social media as a public hazard. The advisory calls for parents, healthcare providers, and more to take action.

“Over the past decade, we have seen just how addictive and overwhelming the online world can be, exposing our children to a non-stop stream of harmful content and fueling our national youth mental health crisis,” said Mayor Adams in a press statement.. “Our city is built on innovation and technology, but many social media platforms end up endangering our children’s mental health, promoting addiction, and encouraging unsafe behavior.

“Today, we’re taking bold action on behalf of millions of New Yorkers to hold these companies accountable for their role in this crisis, and we’re building on our work to address this public health hazard. This lawsuit and action plan are part of a larger reckoning that will shape the lives of our young people, our city, and our society for years to come.”

NYC H+H Chief of Behavioral Health and Co-Deputy Chief Medical Officer Omar Fattal, MD, MPH added, “We must maximize our efforts to support the mental health needs of children and adolescents by providing families with tools and resources that foster healthy development. This includes robustly addressing the negative impact of social media on the mental health of children and adolescents. We join the mayor and DOHMH in encouraging all young people and their families to consider their use of social media and how it may be negatively affecting them.”

Mayor Adams’ administration has been actively addressing the youth mental health crisis. In a significant move last year, the city introduced TeenSpace, a free tele-mental health service catering to New York City teenagers aged 13 to 17. This service enables youths to connect with licensed therapists via phone, video, or text. Since its launch, TeenSpace has provided support to over 2,000 teenagers across the five boroughs within just three months of operation.

“TikTok Ban” Passes US House Of Representatives

March 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

A bipartisan bill that could see TikTok banned in the United States has passed the US House of Representatives by a vote of 325-65. The Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act would demand that TikTok divest from its Chinese parent company. If the company refused, the app would become unavailable in the United States. The bill was proposed on the basis of protecting the data of American users from the Chinese. However, many opponents have labeled the bill as Sinophobic fearmongering.

However, the popular short-form video app is safe for the time being. The bill must now pass the Senate, where there is much less clear-cut support for the legislation. A spokesperson for Tiktok has already urged senators to reject the bill. “This process was secret and the bill was jammed through for one reason: It’s a ban. We are hopeful the Senate will consider the facts, listen to their constituents, and realize the impact on the economy. Seven million small businesses and 170 million Americans use our service,” the spokesperson told the BBC.

Joe Biden’s Energetic State Of The Union Has Republicans Pedaling Cocaine Conspiracies

Of course, it’s been a busy week in US politics. After months of theories claiming that President Joe Biden had dementia, Republicans pivoted to a new attack after an energetic State of the Union address last week. Several Republican influencers, highlighted by Media Matters For America‘s Matthew Gertz, began suggesting that Biden was under the influence. “I think I just got to the bottom of the untraceable little baggie found at the White House,” wrote Fox host Julie Banderas.

Biden, who finds himself between right-wing critics attacking him on border control and left-wing critics attacking him on Gaza, came out swinging in his annual address to Congress. Furthermore, amongst the topics addressed were a warning to Vladimir Putin, a promise to restore Roe v. Wade, and the announcement of a temporary seaport to circumvent the Israeli blockade of Gaza. However, the official Republican response, delivered by Alabama Senator Katie Britt, took aim at Biden’s immigration record and tried to champion the GOP as the “defenders of women”.

DMX’s fiancée, Desiree Lindstrom, captioned the post: “Happy Birthday Earl! Thinking of you always, but especially today. You was New York!!! Exodus tribute to you! (X gonna give it to ya) We love you baby!” Be on the lookout for further updates on DMX’s son on HotNewHipHop.

Bryson Tiller Surprises Michael Strahan’s Daughter Isabella Amid Her Cancer Battle: Watch

March 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s been an undoubtedly tough few months for Michael Strahan and his family. In January, his daughter Isabella revealed that she’d been diagnosed with medulloblastoma, a type of cancerous brain tumor. Since then, the 20-year-old has been documenting her treatment journey on her YouTube channel, just recently sharing that she had to undergo yet another major operation.

In a vlog posted earlier this week, Isabella told fans that she’d be getting a second craniotomy to assess the area of her brain that was previously operated on. “I’m going to have another craniotomy, which is the cutting open [of] my scar from my first surgery, my first craniotomy, and then cleaning it, and then maybe taking my bone out, maybe not, maybe putting a plate in there,” she explained from her hospital bed.

Amid the difficult circumstances, one of Isabella’s favorite artists decided to pay her a visit, which certainly lifted her spirits. In one of her latest TikTok’s, she looks elated as she dances to Bryson Tiller’s 2015 T R A P S O U L cut “Let Em’ Know.” A few seconds into the video, the hitmaker makes an entrance and joins her, leaving her speechless. “Man of my dreams #bestdayever #brysontiller,” she captioned the TikTok.

Fortunately, it looks as though Isabella is back at home after the operation, which is what she told fans she’d hoped for. “It’s not fun but I’m just super glad I can still walk and talk and they didn’t like, touch my brain, because doing that again … would be really, really rough,” she described after surgery. “Hopefully, I will get to go home soon after I heal from this. I don’t feel my best but I wanted to give a vlog update.” What do you think of Bryson Tiller surprising Isabella Strahan amid her current health battle? Are you a fan of their TikTok?

Lizzo Wants AAVE To Be “Reserved For The People Who Created It”

March 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Lizzo has never been a stranger to expressing her opinions on the internet, and recently, she decided to weigh in on non-African American people using AAVE (African American Vernacular English). According to her, it can have some serious consequences, and shouldn’t be taken lightly. She explains that while certain terms have risen to popularity online, they’ve been used by the African American community for years, and should be reserved for those who created them. The hitmaker responded to a TikTok of a woman joking about being annoyed by the overuse of the term “type sh*t” by potential romantic partners.

“Why don’t we bring back gatekeeping?” Lizzo begins. “So that AAVE is reserved for the people who created it and grew up speaking it. So that all these people that are now talking like Black people because they read words on the internet and don’t know the origin and don’t participate in the culture don’t overuse it and then things like this happen.”

Lizzo Thinks “Gatekeeping” Should Be Brought Back

“Because ‘ganglish’ is definitely the new ‘thug,’” Lizzo continues. “When police would call someone a ‘thug’ but it’s really a Black person, which is the new hard R N-word. I know so many people who have said ‘type sh*t type sh*t’ their entire lives. I’ve heard them talk like that for years before it became trendy on the internet to say that. But maybe if these internet people get sick of it, we can just continue to use our dialect in peace… Type sh*t.”

While some social media users are dissing Lizzo for getting “too offended,” others agree with her. Do you? What do you think of her claims that non-African Americans using AAVE could have serious consequences? What about her calling for “gatekeeping” to be brought back? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

The Island Boys’ Latest Provocative Post Rouses New Wave Of Hate

March 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Social media influencers The Island Boys have once again viral for a semi-incestuous post. A video posted alongside one of their regular collaborators shows the twin brothers touching one another sensually and briefly kissing one another. This of course has led to a new wave of hate against the controversial influencers. Last year, the pair went viral for a photo in which they simulated oral sex on each other. This weird aspect of their persona is by the far the most notable part of their infamy.

However, it’s not just the brothers who are getting hate for the new post. “They’ve been doing this for over a year now. You don’t have to share all their sus activities just for engagement,” one person wrote on a No Jumper post reporting on the photo. “Only ur page promote this bs. we dont gaf,” added another. The pair allegedly make music. However, they are overwhelmingly known for their bizarre social media posts, feuds with other content creators, and outrage over the reaction to their bizarre social media posts.

The Island Boys Debut A New Member

A post shared by No Jumper (@nojumper)

Meanwhile, last September, the ever-controversial pair seemingly added a third to what is now a semi-incestuous thruple. The new member of the group, who is seemingly named Enzo, has now appeared in a number of the group’s TikToks. His earliest appearance appears to be in TikToks from late August. Some internet research appears to confirm that Enzo is a long-time member of the Island Boys house. However, there appears to have been some beef between him and the other Boys.

However, he’s back now and has gotten fully into the swing of the group’s boundary-pushing content. In one video he is seen intimately caressing another of the group as the popular TikTok sound “thank you to my dad” plays. The video, whose comments are turned off, is simply entitled “daddies”. In another video, Enzo caresses Fly’s ear as the latter performs for the camera.

After Already Losing UMG’s Roster, TikTok May Be Losing Rights To Even More Music

March 6, 2024 by newhiphopnews

On February 1, Universal Music Group removed its entire roster of artists’ catalogs from TikTok. In an open letter, UMG expressed that “TikTok attempted to bully us into accepting a deal worth less than the previous deal, far less than market value and not reflective of their exponential growth” during negotiations. In its own open letter, the service predictably rebutted UMG’s “false narrative and rhetoric.” It was an ugly situation, but it appears TikTok has another problem on its hands.

On Wednesday, March 6, Billboard exclusively reported that The National Music Publishers’ Association (NMPA) license with TikTok is due to expire on April 30, and “do[es] not anticipate that there will be an option to renew or extend the current NMPA licenses or participate in a new license with TikTok through NMPA.”

See the full letter sent to NMPA members below, as obtained by Billboard.

“If you are receiving this Member Alert you are currently participating in a license with TikTok through NMPA’s 2022 model license opt-in.

NMPA is notifying all participants that these two-year licenses are set to expire on April 30, 2024.

Recently, the press has highlighted concerns around TikTok’s licensing practices, concerns that NMPA has heard directly from many of our members.

At this time, we do not anticipate that there will be an option to renew or extend the current NMPA licenses or participate in a new license with TikTok through NMPA.

NMPA members should make their own business determination whether to engage directly with TikTok to negotiate a license beyond April 30, 2024.

It is important that all NMPA members understand that without a license in place, TikTok should not be using your musical works on its platform. Starting May 1, 2024, any members who are not licensed with TikTok and would like to discuss enforcement options can contact attorneys at NMPA. If circumstances change prior to the expiration of the current TikTok licenses, NMPA will promptly notify members. We are here to answer your questions.”

Hailey Bieber Shuts Down Marriage Rumors With Firm Response

March 6, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In the age of social media, celebrity couples often find themselves at the center of unfounded rumors and speculation. Hailey Bieber, wife of Justin Bieber, recently found herself addressing such rumors head-on, asserting that the gossip circulating about her marriage is baseless. The controversy erupted on TikTok, where users shared “blind items,” cryptic gossip without direct references, concerning the couple’s relationship. Furthermore, in response to the speculation, Hailey took to Instagram to set the record straight, urging her followers not to believe the rumors.

In her Instagram story posted on Tuesday, March 5, Hailey expressed frustration with the constant stream of misinformation. She emphasized that the rumors circulating on TikTok are consistently inaccurate and fabricated. She encouraged her followers to resist the temptation to engage with such stories, saying that there isn’t any truth to them. “Just FYI the stories and constant ‘blind items’ I see on TikTok are 100% of the time wrong,” she says. “Made out of thin air… come from the land of delusion.” Moreover, she added another thought. “So I know it may be fun feeding into these stories but just know they’re always false xx sorry to spoil it.”

Furthermore, the recent wave of rumors can be traced back to a social media post by Hailey’s father, Stephen Baldwin. He shared a video originally posted by Victor Marx, founder of All Things Possible Ministries, featuring Justin Bieber singing a worship song. Marx’s caption appealed to Christians to pray for the couple’s well-being and spiritual guidance. Moreover, Marx elaborated on the pressures faced by celebrities, acknowledging the spiritual warfare they often encounter. He emphasized the importance of support and prayer for those navigating fame and fortune, suggesting that external forces seek to undermine their faith and relationships.

Moreover, Hailey Bieber’s response highlights the broader issue of public scrutiny faced by celebrities. Her decision to speak out against baseless gossip serves as a reminder that behind the glamorous façade of fame lie real people whose lives are often distorted and dissected by the public eye. As the couple continues to navigate the ups and downs of celebrity life, Hailey’s firm stance against rumors underscores her commitment to protecting the sanctity of her marriage and maintaining authenticity in the face of relentless scrutiny.

Cardi B Buys Herself A Coach Bag Following Controversial Lyric

March 6, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Last month, Cardi B released her new single “Like What (Freestyle).” It’s her first new song of 2024 and first since crossing over with Megan Thee Stallion on “Bongos” last year. The single has fans hyped for what she may deliver in 2024. It’s been six years since her debut album Invasion Of Privacy dropped and many are hoping that this year is when the follow-up will finally drop. But in the meantime, fans are still processing “Like What.”

One of the most notable lyrics on the new song came on the chorus. She called out Coach directly, saying “Blocks and money gettin’ spunt. Like, like what? Like a Coach bag, baby, this ain’t what you want.” But apparently Cardi herself does want a Coach bag, at least according to a new Tiktok she shared. “Come with me to buy a Coach bag” the caption of a recent video shared to her TikTok account reads. In the clip she goes to the Coach store to do just that, buying herself a bag after searching though various options. The official Coach TikTok account even pulled up in the comments and said “C for Cardi.” Check out the new video which makes some contradictions to her recent single below.

Cardi B Wants A Coach Bag After All

Cardi tried to explain the origin of the Coach line during a recent livestream. “In 2011, everybody started getting rid of their Coach sh*t. Honest truth, it was really because of Cam’ron. When I was doing this song, that’s what I was thinking about. It’s like, ‘B*tch, do you want that or do you want this? You want a Chanel or you want this bag?’ Now everybody’s jumping me” she explained.

The brand itself didn’t seem to upset by the whole affair. Before commenting on the TikTok the official Coach Twitter gave Cardi their cosign. What do you think of Cardi B’s new video where she buys a Coach bag? Does it make you listen to the lyric on “Like What” differently? Let us know in the comment section below.
