Gunna And Turbo Recruit Some Classic Music Video Starlets For New “Bachelor” Visuals

January 18, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Back in November, Gunna and one of his frequent collaborators Turbo teamed up for a new song called “Bachelor.” The track has been pretty successful in the months since racking up more than 13 million streams. It’s the second time the rapper has lent a verse to an official Turbo song following “QUARANTINE CLEAN” which also featured Young Thug. Those streaming numbers are about to get a significant uptick following the release of the song’s new music video.

The visuals for “Bachelor” were teased ahead of time as a major event and they didn’t disappoint. For the video there are some typical shots of Turbo playing the piano and Gunna delivering his lines in fittingly luxurious imagery. But it’s the other stars of the video that are making waves. They recruited an all-star cast of video vixens who stared in some of the most iconic rap videos of the 2000’s to appear in the new video. Headliners include Eboni Jackson, Tammy Torres, KD Aubert, and more. Collectively the girls have appeared in music videos for Pharrell, Lil Wayne, Drake, Fabolous, 50 Cent, and many more high-profile rap acts. Check out the ornately decorated video below.

Gunna and Turbo Go All Out For “Bachelor” Video

Gunna fans are expecting some new music from the rapper this year. That’s because he responded to a post made by Spotify’s Rap Caviar playlist asking who fans wanted to drop new music this year. He didn’t reveal much in his response but it still got fans hyped for whatever he’s planning.

He followed that vague announcement up with a surprising tease. When discussing his next album Gunna said he wanted to focus on “substance.” He also claimed that he wanted to explore his afrobeats side after a performance in the style last year garnered a bunch of positive attention from fans. What do you think of Gunna and Turbo recruiting famous 2000’s rap video stars for the visuals to their new song “Bachelor?” Let us know in the comment section below.

Kountry Wayne’s “Club Shay Shay” Interview Addresses Jess Hilarious Marriage Situation & Much More

January 18, 2024 by newhiphopnews

31-year-old Jess Hilarious has already been in the news a lot so far this year. Mostly due to the seemingly false promise that she’ll be permanently taking on the coveted spot of The Breakfast Club co-host alongside Charlamagne Tha God and DJ Envy. At this point, even the former isn’t sure what’s happening with the show, though he’s made it clear he’s not interested in rotating through a roster of co-hosts again. Elsewhere, a former lover of the comedian’s, Kountry Wayne, had plenty to say about her during his Club Shay Shay interview.

Anyone who tuned into Shannon Sharpe’s last episode with Katt Williams was expecting big things from the podcaster. Thankfully, he and Wayne delivered, with the latter speaking beautifully about putting his own aspirations on the sideline in order to focus on his children. When talking about his former fling with Hilarious, the Praise This actor suggested that past rumours of her being unaware of his marital status weren’t true.

“Jess, like I always told her, she never tells the 100% truth, and I let her do that,” Wayne told Sharpe. “I text Jess the other day, I said, ‘Jess, man,’ I got kinda petty. I said, ‘You gotta get more going on in your career so they can stop bringing up my name,’” he added, seemingly pushing his ex to further her career instead of living in the past. “Man, a lot of [what] she talk about, I let it slide. But, man, that stuff ain’t play out like that man.”

Lil Wayne’s Kids Meet Queen Latifah While Sitting Courtside: Watch

January 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Lil Wayne has been among the top-performing artists in rap for decades, and throughout that time he’s curated all kinds of friendships. As a Libra, it makes sense that his social circle is wide-spanning, and the “Lollipop” rapper rarely involves himself in beef. Instead, he likes to pour energy into expanding his massive discography, supporting the up-and-coming Young Money artists, and spending time with his children. Most recently, Weezy brought a few of his sons to sit courtside while the Lakers were playing. Earlier this month it was Kameron and Reginae Carter supporting the team from their coveted seats, but earlier this week he brought out 15-year-old Dwayne and 13-year-old Neal to join him.

Having a famous father comes with plenty of perks (such as frequent courtside seats), including meeting his array of friends. While sitting with Wayne, his teenage boys were lucky enough to cross paths with Queen Latifah, who confidently shook both of their hands. The Hairspray actress looked comfortable but classy in her black sweatsuit, slicked-back bun, and large hoop earrings. The Carter family was looking fresh too, clearly taking after Wayne’s bold style already.

As the video is circulating online, some are calling out Neal and Dwayne for not standing up to address Latifah. “My kids would have stood up for the Queen,” one user quipped under @HipHopDX’s post. “Them kids don’t even know how historic of a hand they were shaking, smh,” another chimed in, suggesting that Weezy’s kids are lacking in their hip-hop history knowledge.

Even if Lil Wayne’s sons are ignorant of Queen Latifah’s legacy, as social media seems to suspect, she’s still been getting plenty of flowers as of late. In 2023 she became the first-ever femcee to be honoured by the Kennedy Center, at which time Missy Elliott and Rapsody headlined her tribute show.

January 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Danny Brown has a long history of incredibly creative music videos. For his Atrocity Exhibition standout “Ain’t It Funny” he recruited Jonah Hill to direct a surreal video stylized to look like a fake sitcom. In the video for his song “Best Life,” he follows the lives of various different people through a literal fish-eye lens. But in the third video from his new album Quaranta, he may have delivered one of his strangest outings yet.

Earlier today he unleashed the new video for his song “Y.B.P” featuring Bruiser Wolf. The video is directed by Edem Wornoo & William Child and deploys unique-looking stop-motion animation. In the video itself, stop-motion versions of Danny and Wolf rap their lines while the story of an unpredictable robbery unfolds around them. The video escalates in intensity concluding on a wild police chase that ends in a car accident. In the comments, fans show out praise for Danny’s new music and the unique artistic direction of the visuals in his new era. Check out the newly released video in full below.

Danny Brown Gets Animated In New Music Video

Later this year, Danny Brown is taking off on tour in support of his new album. He will be headed across North America in March and April playing 24 shows on the Quaranta tour.

Danny has also kept up his podcast The Danny Brown Show. He releases weekly episodes talking to rap figures like Pink Siifu, redveil, and JPEGMAFIA. He’s occasionally made waves online for the show whether it be hilarious moments or advice for younger rappers on their career paths.

YG & Saweetie: Femcee Looks Uneasy As Her Ex Posts About Spinning The Block

January 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Saweetie’s rap career hasn’t quite taken off in the same way as others like Ice Spice and Latto, but still, the California native remains one to watch as she embarks on this next chapter. Besides teasing new music, the “Best Friend” hitmaker is also making it known that she’s back on the market following a seven-month relationship with YG. The West Coast duo mostly kept quiet for the duration of their time together, though we did see them outside in coordinating outfits on more than one occasion.

Earlier this week, sources close to them alleged that Saweetie and her ex are going their separate ways. Both reportedly feel friendship is the right choice for them as they continue to focus on their respective work obligations. Interstingly, internet sleuths caught YG in the comments of his former lover, Kehlani’s recent gym photo, immediately starting rumours of his desire to spin the block with her. However, he’s responding to the gossip and clarifying that his “SHOT O’CLOCK” collaborator is the only woman with his attention.

Will Saweetie and YG Reconcile?

A post shared by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom)

In the video above, some feel that Saweetie looks uncomfortable while her former lover wraps his arm around her chest. “The only block I’m tryna spin,” YG captioned the awkward clip. Once @theshaderoom reposted it, the replies quickly flooded with concerned fans checking in on the fashionista. “Kehlani must’ve left him on read,” one person wrote on Tuesday (January 16).

Fans Think Not

“He’s just making his territory known, men tend to do this,” another IG user speculated of YG’s post-breakup behaviour toward Saweetie. “It’s for other men, not us females. It’s [an] ego thing,” they further noted. “Ni**as would try to spin till they dizzy just to fumble us again,” someone else chimed in. Keep scrolling to read more social media reactions, and let us know if you’d rather see the femcee spin the block with Quavo or her most recent ex in the comments.

Is Jess Hilarious Co-Hosting “The Breakfast Club”? Even Charlamagne Tha God Isn’t Sure At This Point

January 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

The Breakfast Club is one of the best-known pop culture radio shows on the air right now, but ever since Angela Yee walked away from the program, listeners are eager to find out who her replacement will be. Jess Hilarious is just one of the media personalities to have stepped in for the Lip Service host in late 2023, and before the year was up, there was even talk of her taking on a full-time role alongside DJ Envy and Charlamagne Tha God.

Interestingly, Hilarious hasn’t been back on the air since sharing the news, leaving us befuddled as to what’s next for the TBC crew. Just a few days ago, TMZ caught up with Tha God to ask him some questions, though it seems he’s just as lost as everyone else. “Huh?” the Brilliant Idiots host responded as the outlet pressed him for updates. “Jess? I don’t know where Jess is!” he insisted, before plugging her iHeartRadio podcast and the stand-up comedy she’s still doing. “I guess the better question is, where’s our third host?” a female voice behind the camera inquired.

Charlamagne Tha God Addresses Jess Hilarious Rumours

A post shared by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom)

“That’s a really great question, I would love to know the answer to that. I mean, I just came from downstairs. It was just me and Envy doing the show again. Everybody saw us rotating guest hosts last year,” Charlamagne told TMZ. “We said we was gonna start 2024 with a new host, and that hasn’t happened yet.” He was unable to provide details about any potential renegotiations unfolding, instead claiming ignorance on the whole matter and making it clear he’s not interested in bringing in new rotating guests to help out in the studio again.

Jess Hilarious might not be providing answers as to whether or not she’ll be on The Breakfast Club with DJ Envy and Charlamagne Tha God, but that doesn’t mean she’s staying out of the public eye entirely. Instead, the entertainer continues to let her comedic personality shine, most recently teasing Kai Cenat over his reaction to Lil Nas X’s “J Christ” single. Read all about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Rick Ross Hilariously Responds To Fan Throwing Money At Him

January 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Even though Rick Ross can sometimes make some pretty serious music, he’s also got quite the sense of humor. That was on full display earlier this week when a video of Ross at a nightclub started making the rounds online. In the hilarious video he walks on stage sporting a stack of cash and smoking a cigar. But on his way across the stage he gets surprised by a fan who throws a stack of cash in his direction like he’s a stripper.

At first Ross hesitates, probably pretty surprised at what happened. But ultimately he has a hilarious reaction to the whole situation when he decided to give the fan a taste of their own medicine. He pulls some cash from the stack in his hand and throws a handful of bills directly into his face from extremely close range. The encounter looks at first like one of many fight videos that have made the rounds online over the years. But the hilarious and surprising conclusion it reaches has been clocking with fans online sharing the video around. Check out the entire interaction below.

Rick Ross Hits Fan With Money At A Nightclub

Over the weekend Rick Ross began making headlines for far less wholesome reasons. Rumors emerged that he had secretly fathered a child with model Cierra Nicole. The rumors made it to his current girlfriend Christina Mackey who posted about it online. That eventually led to Nicole responding in a situation that got heated and complicated very quickly.

Last year, Rick Ross teamed up with Meek Mill for a new collab album called Too Good To Be True. The project sold a modest amount, clearing 30k copies. While fans seemed to think that was an under-performance by both artists standards neither Meek or Ross seemed too bothered by it. In a response to fan questions about it Meek highlighted the importance of owning his musical process. What do you think of the hilarious new video of Rick Ross making the rounds online? Let us know in the comment section below.

Saucy Santana RCA Records Rumours Go Without Answers As He Previews New Music: Watch

January 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

In April 2022, Saucy Santana took one of the biggest leaps of his career, inking a deal with RCA Records. Since, he’s gone on to release his hit single, “Booty” featuring Latto, “MATERIAL GWORRLLLLLLLL!” with Madonna, “Whole Family” alongside Flo Milli, and most recently, “Walk It Like I Talk It” to close out 2023. Other solo efforts to come from the 30-year-old last year include “Meet Me in Da Skreets” and “1-800-Bad-Bxtch,” though we haven’t heard a full-length project from him since 2021’s Keep It Playa featuring Rubi Rose, Kaliii, the City Girls, and BeatKing.

Earlier this week, rumours began circulating online that Santana and his label have parted ways. No formal announcement came from either party. However, internet sleuths noticed that the TikTok star is no longer listed on RCA’s website. “No matches for your search. Run it back,” a screenshot shared by @MobzWorld on Twitter/X shows the page saying. Instead of addressing the gossip, the “Walk Em Like A Dog” artist is showing what he’s got up his sleeve next.

Regardless if RCA is still backing Santana or not, he’s ready to make his presence felt this year. In the video above, he spits bars about his perseverance. “Tried to take me off track but I’m back / Still gettin’ to it, still gettin’ to them racks,” he confidently raps. “I’m the one that put these b**ches on the map / Got a message for my opp, better tell ’em Issa wrap.”

Since first making a name for himself in the entertainment industry, Saucy Santana hasn’t been one to shy away from controversy. It seems he’s bringing that trend into 2024, as the Connecticut native shared his dreams of having Lizzo sing the bridge of a song he’s been teasing on social media in recent weeks. Check out reactions to that news at the link below, and let us know if you’re looking forward to new music from Santana in the comments.

Miami Loves Rick Ross: Rapper Takes Home Key To The City, Library Of Congress Will Induct His Music

January 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Rick Ross has lived countless lives throughout his 47 years on Earth so far, from working as a correctional officer to now being the proud owner of The Promise Land, his sprawling Georgia estate. When Rozay isn’t checking on his animals or flaunting his massive collection of cars, he also enjoys spending time in Miami. Always one to give back to the community, Ross has done a lot for the Floridian hotspot throughout his come-up, and they make sure he feels the love in return.

Earlier this week, the Richer Than I Ever Been artist was attending the MLK Scholarship breakfast event, where organizers took a moment to honour him. Besides congratulating Ross for all his career achievements, Miami officials also gave him a prestigious key to the city, which the multi-talent gratefully accepted. “A boss is one who gets the keys to @miamidadecounty by supporting his community,” one attendee wrote on Instagram while filming the heartwarming moment.

Amid all that excitement, sources said that Rozay’s music catalogue will have a special place in the Library of Congress. An induction ceremony is taking place for the MMG mogul to commemorate the major moment, and knowing him, he’s sure to go all out with his celebratory antics. Christina Mackey was on her man’s arm at the morning ceremony, but we’re curious to see what’s in the cards for her future now that she’s speaking out on social media.

Rick Ross is likely happy to receive such a massive honour from the city of Miami. Still, that doesn’t help the situation currently unfolding between his current girlfriend and his rumoured baby mama, Cierra Nichole.

Chrisean Rock Sitting On Bandhunta Izzy’s Lap Has Fans Urging Zonnique To Stand Up

January 16, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Throughout her rise to fame, Chrisean Rock’s been most consistently linked to Blueface romantically. Their relationship is anything but conventional and has seen far more physical and verbal abuse than the average pairing. Still, their months-old son means that they share a bond for life, even while Blue spends the remainder of winter and this upcoming spring behind bars. As he considers the consequences of violating his probation from a jail cell, Rock is back to business as usual at the club with her girlfriends – and a potential new male suitor.

A video shared by @theneighborhoodtalk reveals that the former Baddies cast member was at an after-hours spit in Atlanta along with Zonnique Pullins’ baby daddy, Bandhunta Izzy. Both he and Rock originally hail from Baltimore, Maryland, though it’s unclear if they knew each other before their respective rises to fame. Regardless, they certainly looked comfortable at the venue, with Rock sitting in the rapper’s lap while someone recorded them from behind. Suddenly, she jumps up upon noticing the cameras and runs her hands over Izzy’s head awkwardly.

Is Chrisean Rock Getting to Know Bandhunta Izzy While Blueface Serves Time?

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

“She dropped her baby daddy off at jail until the summer, put her dentures in, and hit the road Jack ,” one of the clip’s most-liked comments quips. “Zonnique… can you fight sis ? CUZZZZZ you might have too,” another chimed in, speculating that T.I.’s step-daughter could be unaware of the messy situation. Elsewhere, others encouraged Pullins to “sit this one out.”

Chrisean Rock and Zonnique’s baby daddy were definitely looking cozy for their night out, but it was only a few days ago that the 23-year-old accompanied her co-parent to turn himself in. While Blueface is behind bars until at least the summertime, we’re curious what Chrisean Jr. and his mom will be getting into until then.
