Ari Fletcher Reveals She Has Complimentary Weed At Her House For Guests, Shouts Out Moneybagg Yo For The Idea

October 22, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Ari Fletcher offered up a little insight into her home life this week. “I have complimentary jars of weed at my house for my guest. S/O to Mr Bagg. Lol,” the reality star and partner of Moneybagg Yo tweeted on Friday. It’s certainly a unique guest amenity to include in your house but hey, if your guests need to light up, why not ensure that they can leave their green at home.

Furthermore, as can be seen in Fletcher’s tweet, she appears to have gotten the idea (or the weed) from Moneybagg himself. However, the biggest question is – just how good is your guest weed, Ari? Do you put out a second-rate strain for the guests and keep the good good for yourself? Or is magnanimousness the name of the game in the Fletcher household?

Fletcher Goes All Out For Moneybagg’s Birthday

However, it’s not just weed that Fletcher is getting from Moneybagg. She recently went all out for the rapper’s birthday, which occurred at the end of last month. “Happy birthday to a gangsta! I’m thankful for this day because God placed a real one on this earth. Through all the ups and downs I’d do it all over again with you 10x’s. Love you for life and after! It’s whatever for you and about you! ,” Fletcher wrote on Instagram. “Love u too Lady loaf,” Moneybagg wrote in the comments. The post contained a bevy of images of the two of them enjoying their vacation in various ways.

One of the pictures included Fletcher’s gift to Moneybagg – an expensive pendant encrusted with diamonds and bearing the embossed message “IDAF Boyz” on in it. Moneybagg also posted images of bags of cash and an expensive-looking new watch as other gifts he received. Going by the pictures, it appears that the happy couple spent Moneybagg’s birthday on a boat with some friends. Moneybagg and Fletcher replicated the spaghetti-eating scene from Lady and the Tramp.

2 Chainz Used To Be Lil Wayne’s Weed Dealer

October 21, 2023 by newhiphopnews

During their recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, 2 Chainz and Lil Wayne opened up about how they first began working together. According to Lil Wayne, they first met at a studio in Atlanta, and had great chemistry from the start. “I mean, once we linked up, we were friends from there,” he explained. “Just same type of attitude, cool, but I didn’t know he rapped at the time.”

While they weren’t yet connected through their music, they had come together through another one of their passions- weed. “Uh… Wayne wanted cannabis,” 2 Chainz revealed. Lil Wayne elaborated, “And so every time I would go to Atlanta and I wanted to speak about that one thing [marijuana], I would always call this guy [2 Chainz] to talk about that.”

2 Chainz & Lil Wayne Explain How They Met

Eventually, 2 Chainz let the cat out of the bag that he can rap, playing Lil Wayne the track “Duffle Bag Boy.” Right away, he was in. “The moment he said he rapped and the moment I heard it, we got to the studio, and I did this hook for the song, ‘Duffle Bag Boy.’ And the rest is history,” he explained. Clearly, the duo have come a long way since they first started collaborating, as they’re only weeks away from their follow-up to 2016’s ColleGrove.

The sequel, Welcome 2 ColleGrove, is slated for release on November 17. “Me and Wayne’s album drops next month. This is a full circle moment,” 2 Chainz announced during an interview in September. “It was built on a relationship. Wayne at the time, was the hottest artist in the world. He could’ve charged me eight million, but he didn’t.” Are you surprised that 2 Chainz is Lil Wayne’s former weed dealer? Are you looking forward to their upcoming album, Welcome 2 ColleGrove?

Ice Spice Smokes Weed On IG, Haters Say She “Just Lost All Her Charm”

October 13, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Social media hardly bats an eye at celebrities who regularly indulge in drinking. When it comes to smoking weed or other substances, however, artists are often condemned. Doja Cat has faced regular backlash for hitting her vape (even on the Met Gala red carpet, despite Anna Wintour’s famous rule), and Cardi B had to call out those criticizing her for smoking a cigarette on her birthday earlier this week. Now, it’s Ice Spice who’s feeling the heat. A video of the “Munch” spitter hitting a blunt on her Instagram Story seemingly turned off several of her Munchkins.

In the recently posted clip, Isis Gaston casually smokes while seemingly riding on a bus. It’s unclear who’s in her company. Male voices are heard from off camera, raising eyebrows after she confirmed that there’s a new lover in her life whom she wants to keep secret. Once the video was uploaded on IG, it wasn’t long before haters began to share their thoughts. “[She] just lost all her charm,” one user suggested.

Ice Spice’s Smoking Habit Turns Her Critics Off

A post shared by No Jumper (@nojumper)

“She never had charm, just a fat a**,” another user chimed in. “They gon cook [you] for this,” one reply to that post reads, obviously awaiting Spice’s loyal fans to stick up for her. “This is not attractive at all,” and “I thought she was different,” others wrote after seeing the 23-year-old’s incriminating video. Of course, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but a @nojumper comment points out, “[You] ain’t expect a drill rapper out the [Bronx] to smoke? What kinda Fenty snortin’? Talkin’ ’bout losing her charm .”

Not everyone is impressed with Ice Spice’s occasional indulgence in weed. Still, her latest single is already earning a lot of positive attention online. For her latest collaboration, the redhead teamed up with Rema to give us a new sound on “Pretty Girl.” Check that out at the link below, and tap back in later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Dr. Dre Turned Down Opportunity To Make “The Chronic” Weed Strain, Berner Recalls

October 4, 2023 by newhiphopnews

During his recent appearance on The Bootleg Kev Podcast, Berner revealed that Dr. Dre once turned down his idea to team up to produce a strain of weed called “The Chronic.” According to Berner, the performer was concerned about getting himself into the industry before weed was federally legal, which is why he declined the offer. Despite him passing on the opportunity, Berner reflected on the memory of meeting with Dr. Dre “three or four years ago” fondly.

“Dre sat down with me and I showed him a jar of what we wanted to call ‘The Chronic,’” Berner explained. “It was by far the best-looking weed we’ve ever produced — it was incredible, beautiful, it was orange, purple, funky, stanky … it looked like it was out of a f*cking movie, how good this weed looked.”

Dr. Dre Wanted To Wait Until Weed Was Federally Legal

“I showed him ‘The Chronic’ and he was just like, ‘yeah, I f*ck with it I appreciate Slim [the Mobster] putting this play together and, y’know, we’ll think about it, but like I don’t know if I really want to put myself in the industry.’” According to Berner, Dr. Dre told him that since he had already managed to make it big, he didn’t want to put everything on the line with a venture into the weed space. “He told me, ‘I got money money and I don’t really want to play with that until, y’know, maybe it’s federally legal,” he explained. “‘I just don’t want to risk it.’”

Though the strain surely would have been a hit among fans, nobody can blame the 58-year-old for opting to play it safe. What do you think of Dr. Dre turning down Berner’s offer to produce “The Chronic” weed? Would you have given the strain a try if Dr. Dre had agreed to Berner’s idea? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates on Dr. Dre and Berner.

August 23, 2023 by newhiphopnews

During a recent interview with VladTV, Boosie Badazz opened up about some of the conditions he has to follow while out on bond in his gun case. The rapper spoke on some of the ins and outs of wearing his ankle monitor, revealing that he has to wrap it up to even take a shower. Although wearing the device does have it’s downsides, the rapper claims that it’s also working to help keep him out of trouble. “I can’t go out at night,” he explains, “I gotta be in [by] ten at night.” Despite the curfew, Boosie’s been given clearance to perform still, regardless of the timeframe.

He described feeling grateful for the judge’s leniency in his case, claiming that he hasn’t been able to detect any “hate in her heart.” Despite the court’s leniency, however, Boosie also has to refrain from using substances while out on bond. This includes marijuana, which Boosie was a frequent user of. He shared that although the process of quitting is difficult, he’s actually felt better since he did.

Boosie Dreamt About Getting Eaten By A Bear

“I’m getting my color back,” he explained, “man, I feel more [healthy].” Boosie says that he was smoking weed for “five years straight,” making coming off of it quite the feat. “It was like food,” he described, “when I stopped, I was going through withdrawals.” He went on, detailing how he struggled with nightmares throughout the quitting process. The artist explained dreaming about being stabbed, falling off of buildings, and more. Boosie says he even dreamt about getting eaten by a bear while he was fishing.

“I was breaking out with sweats,” the performer shares, “I’m getting better now but man, I was having so many withdrawals.” Despite the tough symptoms of his withdrawals, Boosie agrees that quitting was a much preferred alternative to remaining behind bars.

He recalled to the outlet: “I think that was my first time out here [in New York]. When he hit me up he just hit my DMs, and he asked where I was at. And I was like, ‘Oh man.’ Then he was like, ‘Pull up to the studio.’ And I just pulled up on him. Then we was in that bih all night. We did another song too. But he got that one, and then we did the ‘Ransom.’ I had went to sleep, because he was in that bitch so long, he was just doing shit. He comes in there, does a song, comes out, be like, ‘Nah, that ain’t good enough.’ Delete the whole song.”

Trippie Redd Denies Being Kicked Off Flight For Smoking In The Bathroom

July 4, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Trippie Redd has denied the reports suggesting he was kicked off an airplane for smoking weed in the bathroom. Instead, Trippie says his friend smelt like weed and the American Airlines flight crew gave them problems so he decided to make things easier and fly private. The reports began after a video of a crew escorting Trippie off of a plane went viral on social media.

“I see media outlets keep reaching,” Trippie said in a video on social media, “I never got kicked off a plane for trying to smoke weed. I had smoked weed before I got on the flight and my homie, he smelled like weed in the back of the plane.”

He continued: “I heard the flight attendant say something, so I walked to the back to see what was up. Then they got to yelling at me. I left, I went and got a private jet. Honestly, I feel like the flight attendants got some sort of attitude or some type of animosity like they hate their job or something.”

“I’m fine flying first class but when I feel disrespected or not welcomed, I will fly private because I feel like I got to get to my bag if I’m going to pick up $350,000, $20,000 ain’t shit. Put some respect on it,” he added.

Up To 80% Of NFL Players Smoke Weed, According To Travis Kelce

June 29, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Travis Kelce is a future first-ballot Hall of Famer. After playing as a hybrid QB/TE for the University of Cincinnati, he was taken in the third round of the 2013 draft by the Chiefs. From there, he has blossomed into one of the league’s greatest-ever tight ends. He became TE1 for the Chiefs in his sophomore year and currently holds a host of records at the position. Furthermore, he sits fourth all-time in receiving yards for a tight end as he enters his tenth NFL season.

But we’re not here to talk about Travis Kelce. Instead, we’re here to make talk about a bold claim he made in a recent interview. According to Kelce, between 50 and 80 percent of all NFL players smoke weed. Additionally, Kelce revealed just how players get away with such a prevalent practice.

Kelce Shares NFL Weed Smoking Secrets

Speaking with Vanity Fair, Kelce revealed how NFL players typically get away with smoking weed. “If you just stop in the middle of July, you’re fine. A lot of guys stop a week before and they still pass because everybody’s working out in the heat and sweating their tail off. Nobody’s really getting hit for it anymore.” In 2021, the NFL relaxed its stance on marijuana. Players were only tested in a two-week window before the season, as opposed to more rigorous testing schedules. Furthermore, the threshold for a positive test was raised from 35ng/ml to 150ng/ml.

While Kelce hasn’t been suspended during his time in the NFL for smoking the good kush, he was in college. He missed the entire 2009 season for violating the NCAA’s marijuana policy. Meanwhile, Kansas City legalized recreational weed this year. As a result, there are just six teams still located in states where weed is illegal under all circumstances. They are both Texas teams, the Falcons, Panthers, Packers, and Colts. However, if what Kelce says is true, it’s like that’s not stopping players lighting up.

June 11, 2023 by newhiphopnews

2 Chainz recently hopped on social media to share a story with his fans. He revealed that once while on vacation, a housekeeper of his stole weed from his hotel room. He explains that the housekeeper then proceeded to help the rapper search for the stolen goods. “I ain’t trippin’ I respect it,” the rapper says while laughing about the incident. “God dang I had backup,” he continues, adding that the housekeeper’s behavior was that of a “real Soufside N***a.” Instagram users leaped to the comments section of the clip, joking that 2 Chainz “know how the game go.”

Though he may not have tripped about the stolen weed, he did trip about the price of vegan weed last month. On an episode of GQ‘s Most Expensivest, 2 Chainz spoke with cannabis cultivator Kyle Kushman about his “veganic” weed. When Kushman revealed that the product costs “pretty damn near a $1,000 an ounce,” the rapper couldn’t believe it. “What?!?” he shouted, “Hell naw!” He want on to ask for clarification. “A $1,000 for a zip? $1,000 for 28 grams?” 2 Chainz then added, “That s**t, sometimes when you make it that expensive, it make people want it, you know what I’m saying?”

Feel like a person passed away. I love my dog he was so smart and laid back!!”

2 Chainz told his followers, “I have so many items and memories of Trappy. Can’t believe I won’t hear you snoring no more. I know for a fact we influenced many people to try to get a dog that looked and acted like you. It could never be another Trappy that’s was so sad to me. I l loved my dog more than some people I know #restinpeace @trappygoyard.”
