Doja Cat Loses Her Mind Trying To Recite The Lyrics To Kanye West’s “BACK TO ME”

Last month, Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign released their new album VULTURES 1. The album came after months of delays and was instantly met with quite a bit on controversy. Much of that came from controversial lyrics on the record where West doubled down on antisemitic talking points. There are also numerous lyrics that led to West being called out for objectifying women, some of which came on the track “BACK TO ME.” The song instantly became one of the most attention grabbing tracks on the record, including getting the attention of Doja Cat.

The “Paint The Town Red” singer shared a TikTok over the weekend where she where she sand along to “BACK TO ME.” In particular she’s singing the lyric from the song that stuck out to many other fans the most. It’s a sample from the film Dogma from the character Jay. Both the audio of the original sample and West singing over it appear in the song. In her new video, Doja tries her best to recite the rapid fire tongue twisting phrase. Like many, she doesn’t exactly nail the mouthful of words and seemingly falls into a spiral after missing it a few times in a row. Check out the full clip of her recitation below.

Doja Cat Reciting Kanye West Lyrics

Last year, Doja Cat released her new album Scarlet. It led off with the single “Attention” which was a moderate hit, but she followed that up with two of her biggest songs to date. “Paint The Town Red” hit number one on the Hot 100 becoming her second song to do so following “Say So.” The album also included “Agora Hills” which also became a top 10 hit peaking at number 7.

Last month, Doja began teasing a deluxe version of the album. Despite the tease she hasn’t confirmed any precise details about a release date yet.

Nicki Minaj Shows Off Her Flexibility With An On-Stage Split During “Pink Friday 2” Show

One of the biggest tours of 2024 got underway earlier this month. Nicki Minaj took off on the back of her new album Pink Friday 2 with a tour of the same name. So far she’s played two shows in Oakland and Denver. Across the next few months, she’ll play a few dozen more shows across North America before taking off to Europe in May. Though the tour has only just gotten started, clips from the performances are already attracting plenty of attention online.

Earlier today, video started making the rounds online of an attention-grabbing piece of choreography from one of the shows. In the clip, Nicki shows off her flexibility by doing a split on stage in an incredibly revealing fit. Fans cheer her on as she takes her time descending to an almost full split. But her stopping short of that full split actually drew some criticisms from fans in the comments. “Did anyone else cringe?” and “Chillleee yall paid hundreds of dollars for this ?” two other comments read. Others compare her to some of her other female rap contemporaries. “Lmaoooo sis couldn’t do that center split. Meg and Cardi do it with no hesitation” another comment reads. Check out the video and the fan reactions to it below.

Kanye West Confronts Screaming Paparazzi Overseas In Funny Video

Being a celebrity has never been easy, but thanks to modern technology, it’s more stressful than ever for famous people attempting to live “normal” lives. Posting on social media in real-time can lead to run-ins with stalkers, and if they choose to stay off the grid, “citizen journalists” can still expose their whereabouts in a matter of seconds. Now that his first Vultures LP is here, Kanye West is spending plenty of time outside again, recently exploring Europe in interesting fashions with his wife, Bianca Censori.

Whenever Ye leaves his hotel – or anywhere else for that matter – a group of photographers seems to always be waiting for him. Most of them usually want to capture snapshots of the father of four’s eccentric looks, though some overzealous and curious others have endured physical altercations with West. Earlier this week he was forced to confront those “stalking” him overseas, though he managed to do it in a relatively calm manner.

As they repeatedly yell out his name, Yeezy and his security team ensure Censori safely makes it into their vehicle. “When you photograph, just stop screaming at me,” the “4th Dimension” artist said from behind a full facial covering. “I don’t want to get screamed at every time I go to the car,” he continued as everyone around him assured Mr. West he was understood. Nevertheless, they continued to shout, telling the Chicago native that they were simply trying to support him by taking his picture. “If you wanna support me, then listen, don’t scream at me,” Ye pleaded, the frustration evident in his voice.

After several decades of working in the music industry, Kanye West is now more comfortable than ever setting boundaries with fans and paparazzi. We’ve seen him get physical with some photographers in the past, but thankfully, he seems to be getting better at communicating through words rather than actions. During a recent run-in with some supporters overseas, Yeezy was happy to sign autographs for them. However, he refused to use a young woman’s bunny-shaped pen, generating plenty of laughs from the small group. Check that video out at the link below, and tap back in with HNHH later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Both LeBron James and Ciara have cosigned the new song. The former met up with GloRilla following a Lakers game earlier this month. While the latter shared a video of herself living her best life accompanied by the new song. The track has racked up nearly 3.5 million streams in the weeks since it dropped.

Charlamagne Tha God Denies DJ Akademiks Diss Allegations: Watch

Charlamagne Tha God has been a force in radio far longer than many realize, which is precisely why he’s so confident sharing his opinions on others and demanding his flowers. Earlier this week, a resurfaced snippet from an episode of Brilliant Idiots caused some debate online as the media personality referred to others occupying the same spaces in the years after his come-up as his “sons.” Specifically, the internet believes Tha God is referring to DJ Akademiks, host of the Off the Record podcast and known for beefing with femcees publicly.

“How did y’all come to the conclusion I was talking about Akademiks, though?” the South Carolina native asked co-hosts Jess Hilarious and DJ Envy on The Breakfast Club yesterday (February 27). “Well, last year [he] publicly called out you, Wallo, and Gillie and said that y’all are avoiding his podcast, acting brand new or whatever,” the show’s newest addition argued. “That was a year ago,” Charlamagne shot back, clearly not holding onto the past. “Let’s just face it, and say what it is,” Hilarious replied before dissing Ak and his “smell a** basement.”

Rather than feed into the pettiness, the father of four told his pregnant co-host to “cut it out.” Defending himself, Tha God added, “I was just talking. Like, when Nicki Minaj says, ‘All these b**ches is my sons,’ do we say she’s talking to one person?” He might not have satisfied Hilarious and Envy with his answer, but Charlamagne sure did have listeners laughing.

Elsewhere in the news, DJ Akademiks has once again found himself at war with Yung Miami online. According to the controversial podcaster, the City Girl is to blame for Diddy’s bombshell lawsuit from Cassie, not to mention all the chaos that’s ensued in the time since. Read what Ak had to say at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Kanye West’s Old Comments About Meek Mill Re-Emerge Following New Diddy Lawsuit

Last year, Diddy faced a series of damning lawsuits alleging a wide range of sexual misconduct. While it began with accusations leveled by Cassie, that suit was settled very quickly and in following proceedings very few other notable names were implicated alongside Diddy. That hasn’t been true of the most recent series of allegations which has already roped in names like Stevie J, Yung Miami, and Nicki Minaj. But the newest lawsuit features some more direct allegations. While Meek Mill and Usher aren’t mentioned by name, it didn’t take fans long to find out that they were being discussed.

Investigations into the accusations made in the newest suit feature some descriptions that don’t do a great job of hiding who they’re talking about. It alleges that Diddy spoke on having sexual relations with two other notable figures in addition to Stevie J. The lawsuit mentions “Philadelphia rapper who dated Nicki Minaj” and “who performed at the Super Bowl and had a successful Vegas residency.” Fans pretty easily deciphered that it was talking about Meek Mill and Usher. In the wake of the revelation, some have brought up a Kanye West interview from back in 2022. In this particular clip he mentions them both. Check out what he has to say below.

Kanye West’s Old Comments On Meek Mill & Diddy

Fans might remember the clip from when it went viral just a few years ago. West goes from angry shouting to hysterical laughing across just a few minutes. He begins by calling out various rap figures that he believes were sent after him as part of some kind of contract. The rant connects to a conversation about his daughter allegedly being hidden from him. The situation wasn’t resolved until Travis Scott gave him the address she was at.

But by the end of the recording West is laughing hysterically. He’s seemingly very amused by the idea that Meek Mill was “sent after him” by someone. What do you think of the old audio of Kanye West talking about Meek Mill and Diddy? Do you think he was trying to tell fans that something was going on behind the scenes?

Dame Dash’s Roc-A-Fella Shares: Cam’ron & Mase Discuss Their “Hypothetical” Purchase

2024 has only just begun, but already the news cycle in the hip-hop world has taken us on a rollercoaster. For the femcees, the drama between Megan Thee Stallion and Nicki Minaj, as well as a slightly less tense feud between Latto and Ice Spice has been at the centre of internet discourse. As for male artists, the Diddy scandal unearthed by Cassie continues to bring forth other damning allegations, meanwhile, Dame Dash is doing everything in his power to hold onto his Roc-A-Fella shares amid a time of financial strife.

Last week it was reported that the music executive would have to sell his stake in the company to pay off an $800K+ debt he owes. Now, sources are saying Cam’ron and Mase might be the new owners of those shares; these rumours were addressed during a new episode of It Is What It Is this week. When the rappers’ co-host, Stat Baby, asked about the validity of the gossip, they couldn’t help but giggle about the situation for some time. “Let’s just say hypothetically, right?” Mase said with a grin while pulling money out of his coat pocket.

A post shared by THE HIP-HOP WOLF® (@thehiphopwolf)

In response to their unofficial confirmation, some hip-hop heads think this is the best move possible for Dash. “I mean, Dame ain’t tryna seel it to Jay, so s**t, why not? I say ask for $3M and walk away knowing it’s in good hands. If Cam and Mase acquire it, then it’s win for them both ’cause now Cam with the ROC and Mase get a win ’cause of those jabs Hov took at ’em,” one person wrote under @thehiphopwolf’s post.

Dame Dash is in a tough spot, with upwards of $800K still owed to a film producer who’s actively trying to get his money. Thankfully, Jay-Z and “Biggs” Burke are doing their part to keep his Roc-A-Fella shares in his name, though this rumoured deal has the potential to shake everything up.

Kanye West Refuses Bunny Pen While Signing Autographs: Watch

These days, it’s hard to predict what kind of mood Kanye West will be in should you approach him outside. We’ve seen the father of four allegedly punch overenthusiastic fans seeking autographs, and even lash out at journalists questioning his controversial marriage to Bianca Censori. 2024 has seen its share of hiccups, but for the most part, Ye seems to be making amends with past enemies, enjoying life with his (often scantily-clad) wife, and connecting with music lovers throughout his travels.

Earlier this week, a video began circulating that shows West approaching a small group of people seeking autographs. As one of them holds a notebook open and a pen out for the Yeezy founder, he suddenly becomes reluctant upon spotting the cute animal design on the stationary. “Is that a pen?” he asked one person in the crowd. “Y’all gonna make me hold a bunny pen?” Ye asked in disbelief, a small smile crossing his face. “Nobody else got another pen?” he asked, turning to his entourage as everyone around awkwardly giggled.

Kanye West Leaves Fans Laughing During Unexpected Meeting

Thankfully, someone else came through with a normal writing utensil, allowing for the Graduation rapper to make his fan’s day. As the brief clip continues to make rounds, some are criticizing West for seemingly being uncomfortable in his manhood, or for previously repping Nazi symbolism but not wanting to touch something as innocent as a rabbit.

Kanye West isn’t quite back in the public’s good graces following the release of Vultures 1, but he and Ty Dolla Sign continue to prove they’re a force to be reckoned with in the studio. While he keeps busy finishing up the upcoming installments of their LP, the multi-talent’s children have been outside and living their best lives lately. North and Chicago have been keeping us entertained with their TikTok antics, meanwhile, Saint continues to grow as an athlete, joining Lionel Messi earlier this month to walk out at the MLS Game.

TI Reveals He Almost Got Fired From “ATL” In His Third Day On Set

While TI has long been associated with hip-hop, he’s also stretched his range into a number of other mediums. The most notable might be television where he starred in TI and Tiny for years. While much of his TV work is reality TV, cameos where he plays himself, or musical performances, he’s also flexed his acting ability a few times. One of the first ever times was on ATL in 2006. The movie aimed to capture the spirit of Atlanta through both humor and drama, making the rapper one of the perfect choices to star in the film.

But during a podcast appearance earlier this year, he revealed that he was almost fired from the film immediately. The way he tells the story, he received two checks amounting to $15 million which made him less than motivated to go to work on the film. But he reveals that through the near firing, he learned about some of the responsibility being thrust onto him as the main star of the film. During a discussion with the director, he reconsiders all the people on the film who are counting on him to do his job. Check out the multi-layered story he tells in the clip below.

TI On Nearly Getting Fired From “ATL”

Earlier this month, TI reacted to one of the biggest stories coming out of the Grammys. Killer Mike took home a sweep of the rap awards but that wasn’t the news many were focused on. Instead they were talking about videos that hit the internet shortly after. The videos showed Mike being walked out of the ceremony in handcuffs.

TI didn’t mince words when discussing the situation. “It was an atrocity. To be honest with you, Killer Mike going and sweeping the Grammys, winning three Grammys and then getting arrested and going to jail at the same event in the same venue, is the story of the Black man in America,” he explained. What do you think of TI’s story about almost getting fired from ATL after just a few days? Let us know in the comment section below.

Usher Shares Hilarious Video From His Honeymoom

Usher has had about as busy of a 2024 as anybody so far. That was mainly because he performed on one of the biggest stages in all of music earlier this month. The Super Bowl Halftime show is always a spectacular affair and the R&B legend raised the bar even higher by inviting along some very special guests to perform some of the biggest hits of his career. Additionally, he released his first new album in six years. It was called Coming Home and contains the hit single “Good Good” with 21 Savage and Summer Walker.

Another story that didn’t come out until the days following the Super Bowl, is that Usher used his time in Las Vegas to do more than just perform. He used the opportunity to secure a marriage certificate and ultimately get married. Unsurprisingly, he’s celebrating both the marriage and his performance on a gorgeous looking honeymoon. “Inner Peace, Inner Peace,…Inner Piece of DEEZ CANNONBALLZ!!!” he captioned a video shared to Instagram. In the clip his girlfriend is enjoying a relaxing swim in a stunning looking vacation home. But her “inner peace” is interrupted when Usher comes rushing into frame and does a cannonball into the pool. Check out the hilarious video below.

Usher’s Hilarious Honeymoon Video

Usher is following his wave of renewed interest from the Super Bowl with a massive tour this year. Fans will get the chance to see even more of his big hits in person as he hits dozens of major cities. Unfortunately, his tour became the newest in a long line of shows to have a rough ticket release on Ticketmaster.

Fans trying to get tickets to Usher’s show found long waits that sometimes resulted in tickets being sold out before they could even get in to buy them. Others found exorbitantly high ticket prices as resellers began listing them almost immediately. What do you think of Usher’s hilarious video from his honeymoon?
