Travis Scott Fans Continue GRAMMY Debate Following Killer Mike’s Low Album Sales

August 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Scott fans have been pretty hurt over the fact that Killer Mike took home Best Rap Album at the 2024 GRAMMYs. The Houston native’s fourth studio album, UTOPIA, was a smashing success overall, but ultimately, it wasn’t enough. Since that night, the debates have been nonstop. It didn’t help that the Atlanta, Georgia MC took some subliminal shots at La Flame on his recent album, Michael & The Mighty Midnight Revival, Sings For Sinners And Saints. “STILL TALK’N THAT S***”, the closing track, sees Mike continue to taunt his new foe. “You gon’ respect me like a motherf***in’ Grammy winner / Like I cooked your favorite rapper like a granny dinner (Yeah)“.

This even got to Travis Scott’s manager, David Stromberg. He responded to these exact lyrics, comparing Mike to former controversial GRAMMY winners who may have not deserved the award. “Macklemore and Cardi B tour selling out Chuck E Cheese karaoke nights near u,” Stromberg tweeted. Speaking of the Run The Jewels MC’s recent album, the first week sales for it were revealed and they weren’t eye-popping in a good way. DJ Akademiks shared on his IG that it only moved 2,874 units and this graphic was the foundation he used to rekindle the debate of the GRAMMYs losing their validity.

This set off some Mike supporters, stating how it’s always going to be quality over sales. “Killer Mike’s new album had ZERO promotion. S*** just dropped out of nowhere. But I don’t understand what album sales have to do with album quality”, one user replies. “Quality of music isn’t measured by numbers,” another adds. Then, Scott fans fired back with a tired argument. “Still never heard a killer Mike song”. However, there are some who were trying to flat out embarrass Mike. “Obviously its irrelevant its been months since he won that award and that album is still irrelevant as it was beforehow u win rap album of the year if the album u dropped had 0 effect on culture”.

What are your thoughts on Travis Scott and Killer Mike fans continuing the GRAMMYs debate? Where do you stand on who should have won Best Rap Album? Do you think Mike would have sold more had there been more promotion? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Travis Scott Arrested in Paris Following Drunken Brawl, Released Without Charges

August 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

WATCH: Travis Scott Delivers "I KNOW ?" Video

Rapper Travis Scott found himself in trouble in Paris over the weekend after getting involved in a brawl with his bodyguard in Paris. The 33-year-old artist was detained by French police at his hotel around 5 a.m. following his return from the Olympics. The altercation reportedly took place in the early hours of the morning, leading to his arrest and a brief stay in a Parisian jail.

According to The Sun, Scott was released the next day without any charges being filed against him. A representative for the rapper confirmed to the outlet, “Travis Scott has been released with no charges.”

French authorities reportedly had to delay questioning Scott due to his inebriated state at the time of his arrest. An investigating source mentioned, “He was not in the right condition to be questioned straight away, so was put in a cell where he is still sobering up.”

Despite the arrest, Scott’s representatives have downplayed the severity of the situation, and it remains unclear what exactly led to the dispute with his bodyguard. For now, Travis Scott is back on the streets of Paris, with the incident seemingly behind him.

Travis Scott Has Reportedly Been Released Following Paris Arrest, And The Chargers Were Dismissed

August 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Scott is a free man. Like many other celebrities, the “Fe!n” rapper decided to experience the 2024 Paris Olympics in-person.

Unfortunately, for Scott, yesterday (August 9) he found himself in a Parisian jail following an supposed altercation with hotel security. But today (August 10), Scott has been released from jail, according to TMZ.

The outlet reported that Scott was allegedly involved in a fight. At that time hotel security attempted to deescalate the situation but in the process a vase was shattered. At that time, police detained Scott, then transported him to jail. He was later transferred to a hospital for treatment. A representative, close to the matter, seemingly confirmed Scott’s injuries with a statement. “There were no injuries to any other party, including his security,” said the rep.

However, it appears no assault charges were filed. So, today, the Paris prosecutors contacted TMZ to confirm Scott’s case had been dismissed. The reason for the dismissal was supposedly because “the crime was insufficiently characterized.” The agency reportedly doesn’t intend to pursue charges at a later time.

As of today, Scott has released a statement of his own. But don’t be surprised if a special merch line drops to commemorate the moment. In June, Scott was supposedly arrested on disorderly intoxication and trespassing charges. Shortly after, he uploaded a t-shirt with his mugshot to his website’s online shop.

Kai Cenat Begs French Police To Release Travis Scott: Watch

August 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Scott got on the wrong side of an altercation on August 9. The Houston rapper was arrested for getting into a fight with his bodyguard at a luxury hotel in Paris. According to People Magazine, Scott’s representatives are still working to get the rapper freed. “We are in direct communication with the local Parisian authorities,” they noted in a written statement. “To swiftly resolve this matter and will provide updates when appropriate.” Apparently, Scott’s legal team aren’t the only ones working to get him out though. Kai Cenat, streamer extraordinaire, decided to offer assistance as well.

Cenat was also in Paris for the Olympics, and decided to roll the dice with French authorities. He went up to a random squad car and asked that Travis Scott be released ASAP. “Please, just free Travis right now,” he said to the officer behind the wheel. “Everybody’s concerned, everybody’s worried, so we gotta get him freed.” Kai Cenat voices frustration when he realizes the officer doesn’t speak English. He then goes to a Black officer and attempts the same routine. The second officer confirms that he doesn’t know who Scott is, but Cenat isn’t buying it. “Bro, Travis Scott,” he asserted. “It’s lit! Fein! Y’all just had arrested him yesterday.” No dice. The streamer walks away from the interaction empty-handed.

Kai Cenat Told Authorities That Fans Were Worried

Kai Cenat and Travis Scott have developed a close friendship over the years. The latter has called Cenat during his streams, and have even linked up for 24 hour streams in the past. Cenat is also a huge fan of Scott’s music. He regularly posts reactions to new Scott music, and even went viral when Scott went 0 for at the 2024 Grammy Awards. Cenat was visibly frustrated by the fact that Travis Scott failed win any of the rap categories. “Who decided this motherf*cker?,” the streamer asked. “Who the f*ck decided this motherf*cker? Her Loss? Utopia? Metro Boomin?”

The viral moment happened back in February, but has actually become relevant again. Killer Mike, the rapper who beat Travis Scott in multiple categories, seemingly dissed the Houston rapper on his new album. Mike evidently felt a way about the pushback he got from celebrity names like Kai Cenat, and asserted that he was deserving of the wins. “You gon respect me like a motherf*ckin’ Grammy winner,” Killer Mike rapped on the album. “Like I cooked your favorite rapper like a Granny dinner.”

Kanye West Officially Releases Long Lost “CAN U BE” With Travis Scott & Ty Dolla $ign

August 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Even after four digital deluxe versions of VULTURES 2 were uploaded to YEEZY.com, Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign had one more surprise up their sleeves. In general, ¥$ have been feeding fans past recordings from older albums so far during this trilogy. But the second installment is living up to that even more so. Last night, the controversial duo dropped three new songs in the forms of “BELIEVER”, “DRUNK”, with Peso Pluma and Kodak Black, and “GUN TO MY HEAD” with Kid Cudi. But Kanye West wanted to treat his most loyal supporters with the official release “CAN U BE”.

This track is perhaps the most sought after of the bunch, as it was recorded during The Life Of Pablo sessions. It used to be referred to as “Pressure”, which you can find on Soundcloud and YouTube. This updated rendition clocks in at around 2:30 minutes and now includes an additional verse from Ty Dolla $ign. The track famously incorporates a flip of Marvin Gaye and Diana Ross’s “Stop, Look, Listen (to Your Heart)”, perhaps just another reason why this track was highly requested.

Fans Buy Out “CAN U BE” Deluxe Version Of Kanye & Ty’s VULTURES 2

Genius, as usual, as some pretty interesting facts about “CAN U BE”. In their annotation, they share that this is a song that Kanye West was not a big fan of. Because of this, he stopped working on in it in 2017. However, his fans, as we have stated, have adored this record since it was first leaked. That brings us to our next interesting tidbit. The leaking community valued this track so highly that they tried to put it up for auction. Interestingly, it would take quite a bid of time before bidders got involved. Eventually, it would be sold for an alleged sticker price of $25,000 and the files would be released to the public in May of this year. Finally, “CAN U BE” is a fan given name, thanks to Ye’s repetitive chorus.

So, there is some speculation that fans released this and not Ye. It did make into onto streaming platforms briefly before being taken down and included on the YEEZY.com site for $5.00. The “CAN U BE” version of VULTURES 2 is now sold out. However, there are YouTube accounts reuploading it for those who didn’t get to purchase it. What are your thoughts on Kanye West releasing “CAN U BE” with Travis Scott and Ty Dolla $ign? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Kanye West, Ty Dolla $ign, Travis Scott, and VULTURES 2.

Travis Scott Was Arrested In Paris After He Allegedly Assaulted A Security Guard In A Hotel

August 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Scott has found himself in legal trouble again.

The rapper was arrested in Paris, France, early Friday morning following an incident involving a security guard and his bodyguard, NBC News reports.

“I can confirm that on August 9, 2024, police officers were called to the George V hotel and arrested the rapper nicknamed Travis Scott for assaulting a security guard,” the Paris prosecutor’s officer said in a statement. “The security guard had intervened to separate the rapper from his bodyguard. The Paris public prosecutor’s office has referred the case to the 1st district of the judicial police.”

Scott is in Paris for the 2024 Summer Olympics. Prior to the incident, he caught the US Olympic men’s basketball team stage a thrilling comeback to beat Serbia and advance to the gold-medal game against France.

Back in June, Scott was arrested in Miami on charges of disorderly intoxication and trespassing on property after a warning. “Mr. Scott was briefly detained due to a misunderstanding,” his lawyer Bradford Cohen said in a statement at the time. “There was absolutely no physical altercation involved, and we thank the authorities for working with us towards a swift and amicable resolution.” The disorderly intoxication charge has since been dismissed.
