Elon Musk Delivers Creepy Response To Taylor Swift’s Kamala Harris Endorsement

September 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Last night, Elon Musk came under fire for a creepy response he had to Taylor Swift. Overall, this stemmed from Swift’s ringing endorsement of Kamala Harris for President of the United States. After watching the debate between Harris and Donald Trump, Swift took to Instagram where she revealed her plans for the election. She also addressed the AI Trump support memes, which she believes are extremely scary and deceiving. Below, you can read what she had to say about the current Vice President and her running mate, Tim Walz.

“I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election. I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them,” Swift wrote. “I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos. I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades.”

Following this endorsement, Musk took to Twitter where he said “Fine, Taylor, you win … I will give you a child and guard your cats with my life.” Overall, many found this to be an extremely odd and creepy message. Musk has been known to be a bit of a creep in the past, but this is just beyond weird, even for him. If we were Taylor Swift, a restraining order might be something worth considering.

Elon Musk Responds

Let us know what you think about all of this, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that Elon Musk is being a bit too creepy about all of this?

Memphis Bleek Has A Theory On Why Nicki Minaj Hates JAY-Z So Much

September 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Memphis Bleek knows JAY-Z about as well as anybody in hip hop. He was Hov’s right hand man during the peak of Roc-A-Fella Records. When he has something to say about the man, there’s a lot of street cred that comes with it. This is why Memphis Bleek’s input on September 10 was so welcome. The hip hop world was still shocked by Nicki Minaj’s vitriol towards JAY-Z after the Super Bowl Halftime Show controversy. It seemed to come out of nowhere. According to Bleek, though, there’s a specific reason why Minaj despises JAY-Z.

Memphis Bleek took to Twitter to present his theory. He didn’t air out Nicki Minaj, or even call her out by name, but the message was pretty clear. The rapper reposted a Hot 97 clip of JAY-Z talking way back in 2009. The Roc-A-Fella co-founder claimed that fellow artists only get mad at him whenever he fails to do something for them. “They don’t say I did anything to them,” JAY-Z says in the clip. “They say I didn’t do something for them.” Memphis Bleek implies that Nicki Minaj is one of the artists who fall under this tired pattern. “N**gas is mad mad,” he added.

Memphis Bleek Thinks Nicki Minaj Is Acting Entitled

Memphis Bleek may have a point. Nicki Minaj and JAY-Z both hail from New York, but there has never been a particularly close dynamic between them. Minaj and Hov rapped together on Kanye West’s hit “Monster” in 2010, but have never appeared on each other’s respective albums. Nicki Minaj also said that she wanted to “dethrone” JAY-Z during a 2012 interview with Allure Magazine. She explained that she made her bold proclamation to the rapper’s face during the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. “I was like, ‘Yeah, I’m coming for you,’” Minaj recalled. “‘I’m coming for your spot, Mr. Mogul.’”

It doesn’t help, of course, that Nicki Minaj’s boss, Lil Wayne, and label mate, Drake, has also had tense dynamics with Hov over the years. Roc Nation and Young Money don’t seem to mix, which does support Memphis Bleek’s theory. The notion that JAY-Z didn’t pick Weezy for the Super Bowl Halftime Show, or the Young Money crew as a whole, is an instance of him not doing something for Minaj. There’s decades of additional history and context to take into account. At the end of the day, though, Bleek’s theory is still pretty solid.

Future Drops New Snippet And Official Album Trailer For “Mixtape Pluto”

September 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Future has done a great job of building up anticipation without dropping a single song. Instead of going the traditional single route, the rapper has decided to base his rollout on snippets. He’s dropped three in the last week. One of which, includes a guest verse from longtime collaborator Travis Scott. All three of the snippets make good on the promise of the Mixtape Pluto title, however. Future is really bringing it all back to his legendary mid-2010s run. Now, we have a trailer to hold us over for a little while longer.

Future dropped the trailer on September 9. The 30-second video sees the rapper holed up in an L.A. hotel room. He looks pensive while overlapping voices and police sirens can be heard in the distance. Mixtape Pluto then takes over, and Future treats us to a snippet of a previously unheard (and untitled) song. Yes, it sounds great. The rapper poses alongside a group of women and a car, while bass-rattling beat for the song kicks in. Future definitely isn’t pulling a fast one, here. He’s expanded his sound a little bit with his Metro Boomin collabs, but Mixtape Pluto is for the day one fans.

Future’s Album Is Allegedly Dropping This Month

Frustratingly, the trailer doesn’t provide an official release date for the single or the album. The rumor is that Mixtape Pluto will drop September 13, which would mean within a week of the trailer’s release. Some sources claimed to have seen at least ten tracks on the album, and that producers Southside and London on the Track handle the intro. The same outlets that present this, however, have also noted that these are unverified claims. Future is friendly with Playboi Carti, who is also rumored to drop in September. Carti is famous for his unpredictability, though, especially when it comes to release dates.

There’s also The Weeknd. The Canadian superstar is prepping the release of his upcoming album, Hurry Up Tomorrow. He’s even dropped a few album trailers of his own. Future, Playboi Carti and The Weeknd are all signed to UMG, so it would benefit the company if their respective releases were staggered. That may be part of the reason Future has yet to announce a proper release date. We’ll see if the September 13 rumors prove to be true this Friday.

Young Thug Tweets Out Support For Tyreek Hill After Police Detainment

September 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Young Thug has his hands full. The rapper is currently facing RICO charges, and if convicted, he will go away for an estimated 120 years. That said, Thug took time out of his tight schedule to give a shout out to Tyreek Hill. The NFL superstar got into trouble with the law on September 8, following a traffic stop. Hill was released after receiving a citation, but the media fallout from the athlete’s interaction with the police has been sizable. Young Thug noticed, and showed love to his celebrity peer once he was in the clear.

Young Thug’s tweet got right to the point. “The Cheetah’s free,” he wrote, referencing Tyreek Hill’s nickname. The association may seem tenuous, but Hill has actually voiced support for Young Thug’s cause in the past. Following the Dolphins’ first game of the season, Hill participated in an on the field interview with CBS. The superstar athlete avoided questions regarding the arrest. Instead, he sang the praises of those in his life, and gave a special tip of the cap to Young Thug. Hill wiped his nose and said “SLATT” directly into the camera before resuming his celebration. “SLATT” is a phrase commonly used by Young Thug and the rest of the YSL group.

Young Thug Got A Shout Out From Hill In Return

The cheetah’s free!

Tyreek Hill’s traffic stop occurred on Sunday afternoon. The Miami Dolphins wide receiver was detained by police outside of the Hard Rock Stadium right before the game started. ESPN reported that Hill was driving erratically without a seatbelt on. He also had fellow Dolphins teammate, Calais Campbell, riding shotgun. The body cam footage shows that the interaction between Hill and the police escalated when the former opened up his car door. The police then dragged him from the vehicle and pushed him to the ground. Tyreek Hill can be heard telling his agent (who was on the phone) that he was getting arrested.

The union representing the Miami-Dade Police Department issued a statement following Tyreek Hill’s detainment. The statement clarified that Hill was never placed under arrest. It also characterized the NFL star as “uncooperative” with the officers who were on the scene. “Hill was not immediately cooperative with the officers,” the rep claimed. “[He] refused to sit on the ground and was therefore redirected to the ground.” Young Thug’s legal issues persist, but at least Hill’s appear to be behind him.

September 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

DJ Akademiks went off in a rant on X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday night after the NFL announced that Kendrick Lamar will be headlining the Super Bowl Halftime Show. He accused JAY-Z of colluding against Drake by helping his ongoing rival host an even bigger version of The Pop Out event.

“The NFL just gave Kendrick Lamar a global ‘Pop Out’ show… Jay Z I see u n****h… u ain’t low…,” Ak began a series of posts. In more, he added: “Jay Z and roc nation responsible for curating the Super Bowl half time show… remember that. Metroboomin waiting by the phone for Kendrick Lamar to call him n invite him to the Super Bowl performance to get his 16 off with his lil MPC. Every n***a at the pop out event w Kendrick texting him rn like ‘PART 2 @ SUPERBOWL?? BIG HOMIE?!!’ Drake and J Cole rapped ‘Big As the What..

In Lamar’s Super Bowl announcement, he remarked “You know it’s only one opportunity to win a championship — no round twos.” Drake had recently teased gearing up for a “Game 2,” which fans interpreted as a reference to his feud with Lamar.

Offset Addresses Bad Gyal Dating Rumors Amid Cardi B Divorce

September 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Last month, a rep for Cardi B told Page Six that the femcee filed for divorce from her husband Offset following several years of marriage. Shortly after, she confirmed that she was expecting their third child. Nowadays, they appear to be on good terms despite their split, even linking up to celebrate their son Wave’s birthday last week. It remains unclear exactly when they officially decided to go their separate ways, but some fans suspect that he recently soft-launched his relationship with someone new.

A photo of him and Bad Gyal at New York Fashion Week began to make its rounds online this weekend, prompting rumors that they’re an item. The former Migos member didn’t waste any time before setting the record straight. Yesterday, he took to Twitter/X to clarify that the relationship is platonic.

“I took a pic with Anna Wintour the same way,” he explained alongside a photo of him and Wintour. “I CAME ALONE [cap emoji].” As for Bad Gyal, she shared a photo of her, Offset, and Doechii on her Instagram Story. This appeared to be an attempt to clear up rumors that she and Offset attended the event as a duo. While it doesn’t look like there have been any updates on Offset’s love life lately, as far as fans know, these aren’t the only rumors surrounding him these days.

Yesterday, fans also began to speculate that Cardi B had given birth to their child, though this is unconfirmed. She was spotted on Instagram Live at what some social media users think was a hospital, and sources told AllHipHop that she and Offset’s child had arrived. “She didn’t publicly announce [the pregnancy] until she was six or seven months,” the source claimed. What do you think of Offset shutting down rumors that things are heating up between him and Bad Gyal? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

GloRilla Reveals How She Used A Mean Tweet As Motivation

September 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It goes without saying that being a celebrity comes with its fair share of downsides. For every supportive fan there is, there are likely more critics waiting for an opportunity to tear you down. Luckily, criticism isn’t always a negative thing, as some artists use it as motivation. This includes GloRilla, who recently took to Twitter/X to explain how a shady Tweet fueled her amazing past few months.

“Glorilla fell off so fast and bad,” the critical Tweet reads alongside a series of crying emojis. It was originally written in October of last year but received a response from Glo earlier this week. “I remember bookmarking dis & telling myself ‘Dey gotchu f*cked up so bad,’” she wrote. “Dis post ain’t do sh*t but put a battery in my back i needed data don’t let dese people write yo story for you , Keep going !!!”

GloRilla Says Hater “Put A Battery In [Her] Back”

Obviously, GloRilla’s hard work has paid off, and she managed to prove this critic wrong. Nowadays, she’s enjoying the success of singles like “TGIF” and her debut mixtape, Ehhthang Ehhthang. She also joined fellow Southern femcee Megan Thee Stallion on her “Hot Girl Summer” tour this year, which was a major hit with fans. The two of them might even be teaming up for yet another project in the near future, as Meg hinted at a potential joint album during her recent interview with Billboard. “I think that would be very fire. I ain’t gon’ say too much, but it feels like it’s going to get done,” she explained.

“Megan is a real rapper, and I’m also a real rapper,” GloRilla added. “We actually be talking and coming with bars on some down South gangsta sh*t. [It would be] some down South, real turnt, real rap [sh*t].” What do you think of GloRilla crediting a critic’s old mean Tweet for her impressive 2024 run?

“Happy birthday to my biggest inspiration @foxybrown,” she wrote on her Instagram Story alongside a series of champagne bottle emojis.

Following the release of Pink Friday 2, Foxy praised Nicki for breaking her record as the female rapper with the most No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200. “Only Nic could break tha king record,” she wrote at the time. “Hella proud [fire emoji]. 26 yr record iz brazy tho.

Azealia Banks Goes After Beyonce Yet Again For Her “Ghetto” Whiskey Brand

September 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Azealia Banks is not the biggest Beyonce fan in the world, something that you’ve seen countless times thanks to countless rants. Moreover, the last time that the former dragged the latter online was through accusations of a “smear campaign” on Bey and Jay-Z’s behalf for Banks’ criticism of her new country era. Now, the New York femcee is instead going after something a little bit more light but still very, very personal to the Texas superstar. This new subject of hate is her new whiskey brand SirDavis. It’s named after Bey’s great-grandfather Davis Hogue, who was a Southern farmer and moonshiner during the Prohibition era.

“I’m sorry Beyonce I love you down,” Azealia Banks began her Twitter rant on Thursday night (September 5). “But ‘SIRDAVIS‘ is a horrible name for a luxury spirits brand. Its so ghetto. Its giving 1980’s hood francophile ‘Latoya, Shaniqua’ teas. Change the name to ‘Renaissance.’ That’s actually a marketing slay. Renaissance whisky gives me classy successful handsome older black man with the good cologne & the good teeth/ spent $500,000 buying out some superbowl box seats / expensive legacy d**k. ‘Sir Davis’ is giving southern comfort/ e&J with some matted dreads and dry knuckles.”

All in all, not the worst or meanest rant in this saga, but certainly not the most earned or understandable, either. To be fair, maybe we’re just in the wrong for not looking into liquor branding with the same level of attention to detail. Elsewhere, Azealia Banks threw her hat into the Ice Spice/Cleotrapa drama ring by expressing solidarity with the latter. “I don’t like how everyone is trying to make cleotrapa look,” she tweeted.

“Any f***ing who @iamcleotrapa will be performing with me on Halloween Oct 31. at @Terminal5NYC,” Azealia Banks continued. “She will – be paid, have her own space to glam, whatever she wants on her rider.. because i have f***ing respect & class… Period. End Of Discussion. She can have 50 different styles of chicken salads. It’s whatever she desires.” For those unaware, Cleotrapa accused Ice Spice of treating her horribly during their ongoing tour. We’ll see what the next rant is about.
