Jack Harlow Reveals Unexpected Pick For Favorite Rap Group Of All Time

by

Jack Harlow loves hip hop. It’s become easy to pile on the “First Class” rapper for his pop-friendly approach, but he has spoken at length about the artists he listened to growing up and the passion he has for the genre. Jackman, his last album, was a testament to this. It should then come as no surprise that he would be willing to talk hip hop via social media. Jack Harlow played ten questions on Instagram on November 13, and one fan inquired about his favorite hip hop group. His answer was not at all what we expected.

The question had some easy candidates build in as potential answers. “Most legendary rap group,” the fan asked. “Between Wu-Tang, Dipset and A$AP Mob? Can only pick one.” Jack Harlow responded with a very concise and very surprising answer. He posted a photo of YBN Cordae and YBN Nahmir and wrote back: “Try again.” There you have it. Jack Harlow’s favorite rap group is YBN, which ran from 2014-2020 and released only one collaborative album. You’d be hard-pressed to find a hip hop fan who would put the YNB crew in the same company as say, Wu-Tang Clan or A$AP Mob, but we have to hand it to Jack Harlow for taking a left turn.

Jack Harlow Worked With Cordae On A 2021 Remix

Jack Harlow has never worked with Nahmir, but he has gotten on a record with Cordae. In fact, he was able to rap alongside Cordae and a mutual hero of theirs, Eminem on the remix to “Killer.” Harlow gushed about the opportunity to collaborate with such notable talents during a 2021 interview with Billboard. “He gave me a lot of props that any artist would love to get,” Harlow said regarding Em. “Sometimes, the best gem is just somebody you admire, letting you know who you think you are. He let me know, ‘You’re that.’”

Jack Harlow’s endorsement could not have come at a better time for Cordae. The former YBN member is dropping his third studio album, The Crossroads, on November 15. The album will feature several rappers that Harlow has collaborated with in the past, including Lil Wayne and Kanye West. Cordae recently made headlines for asserting that he doesn’t “give one f*ck” about first week album sales, as well. Harlow, on the other hand, claimed that he has some “special sh*t” on the way during a recent Brooklyn concert.

YBN Nahmir Relentlessly Clowned After Announcing Child With Infamous Groupie Celina Powell

by

YBN Nahmir recently had a pretty harrowing health scare earlier this year, so it’s nice to see him pop up for more positive and heartening reasons. However, even news of upcoming childbirth isn’t happy enough to stop people’s roasting. Moreover, he announced along with his current partner Celina Powell that they’re expecting a child, sharing some pictures on Instagram to celebrate. Fans’ reactions were pretty mocking, considering how the rapper doesn’t have the best public favor right now and Powell is infamous for being with a whole lot of rappers and famous people. Check out the comments of the IG post below to see what we mean.

“This worse than the cheese touch,” one fan ruthlessly wrote of YBN Nahmir and Celina Powell’s announcement. “Ngl this the biggest L of bros career,” another posited, and here’s a less flattering alternative: “Like kissing a public bathroom toilet.” Still, other fans know that he hasn’t had good news this year, and they recognize that the best thing for their mental health is to show your casual support for something that has nothing to do with your personal life. “Sometimes you gotta ‘as long as you happy’ a n***a,” one user commented under the IG post below.

YBN Nahmir & Celina Powell Announce They’re Expecting A Child: See Comments For Reactions

Ironically enough, before this YBN Nahmir announcement, Celina Powell spoke on deleting her OnlyFans account when she eventually gets pregnant. Looks like the time is now. She made those comments on the Aunt Tea podcast with Karlissa Saffold, Tia Kemp, and Tokyo Toni, who roasted Powell when she spoke on having a child. “You’re not going to get pregnant,” Toni exclaimed. “No. Don’t bring no baby to this world, f***ed up like you are. Get some help! You’re f***ed up. I think you’re trashy, filthy, nasty, and dirty.”

All the ladies laughed about it, though, so maybe they didn’t take this as seriously as other fans did. Still, now that YBN Nahmir and Celina Powell are having a baby, it seems like they might have to revisit that conversation. That Aunt Tea podcast also held a lot of other NSFW revelations, and the timing certainly doesn’t help mitigate these roasts. In any case, congrats to the couple!

YBN Nahmir Denies Scamming Fan For $200 After Adin Ross Pressure

by

YBN Nahmir is clapping back at any and all detractors online, and is now dealing with some scamming accusations from a fan. Moreover, an up-and-coming artist leaked alleged DMs with him claiming that he paid $200 for him to promote him and their collab on social media. “I get it bro,” the rapper allegedly began his reply to the fan’s qualms before allegedly ghosting him altogether. “You know the thing with me is bro I’ll be agreeing to s**t but it’s just too low at the same time. Like I feel like it’s cool for me to post it on like my Snapchat story for the 200 you feel me? Feel like for my actual [story] it should be more like 500 do you feel me on Instagram? You feel me though, bro.”

“$200 is crazy lol,” YBN Nahmir expressed on Twitter shortly after the artist’s posts on the matter went viral, seemingly downplaying the interaction. “I don’t even know what that is & tbh I never even check my IG dm’s. I have a team lol. Tired of n***as lying on my name u h* a** n***a,” he continued while adding alleged screenshots of IG DMs between the two.

“Firs the n***as bought an open off of me which I sent him & cleared it for em,” YBN Nahmir continued. “Than the n***a start having a fake conversation with himself believing he actually sent 200 n***a u ain’t sent s**t. I never even answered u anymore. u was asking for s**t for low a** prices I wasn’t finna do it. Stop the [cap emoji] n***a weird a** hell if I was gonn scam u why tf I wouldn’t have done it before I gave u a song cleared it and all that lame a** b***h.” “N***a’s that never paid me lying on my name tryna get clout,” he shared on his IG Story.

Of course, this is a bit ironic considering the Alabama MC’s recent scuffle with Adin Ross. He wanted to box the media personality for $100K, but Ross turned it down and said that he’s not worth his time. We’ll see whether another situation pops up in which YBN Nahmir will either refuse payment to prove a point or put money on the line to fulfill his goals… however odd they may be. Regardless, log back into HNHH for more news and the latest updates on him.

YBN Nahmir Wants To Prove He’s Not A One-Hit Wonder, Posts Receipts On IG

by

YBN Nahmir is showing receipts of his hits to fight back against recently reignited assumptions that he’s a “one-hit wonder.” Moreover, you may remember his smash record “Rubbin Off The Paint,” but via a recent Twitter post from Friday (February 23), he’s showing that -– at least numbers-wise -– he’s got a track record. The “Where I’m From” MC showed off four platinum certifications from the RIAA, one of those being “Rubbin Off The Paint,” that also comprised of “1942” with Yo Gotti and G-Eazy, “Opp Stoppa,” and “Bounce Out With That.” Also, he highlighted his gold-certified YBN mixtape with Cordae and Almighty Jay in response to Adin Ross’ recent attack towards him.

“Nahmir, you’re not worth $100,000,” Ross said on stream of his rejection of YBN Nahmir’s offer to fight for $100K. “You fell off, you suck at music. You failed your music career. I’ve got no disrespect to show, but that. Nahmir, you’re nothing. You’re nobody and your career sucks. He wanted 100 bands to fight. You are nowhere near 100 bands. And again, Kick paid Carti $2 mill. Hey, at least I got $2 mill to pay. You’re broke, f-ck you!”

“Don’t at me in no f***ing s**t if you’re talking s**t, because you gon’ get smacked in your f***ing mouth for it,” YBN Nahmir responded on social media. “You can hire all the security that you want to. It’s not going to work like that. Don’t disrespect my name and act like, ‘No disrespect, no disrespect!’ Shut the f**k up, n***a! How the f**k you talk s**t then cop a plea in the same f***ing video?” It’s clear that Ross’ comments made the Faster Car Music Vol. 1 MC realize how quick folks are to criticize and not give weight behind their words with actions.

Meanwhile, we hope that the Alabama native is doing well following his time in rehab, which he spoke on toward the end of last year. “I’m not out here doing hardcore drugs,” Nahmir tweeted. “Im addicted to alcohol & I just need a little help, that’s all. I pop Percs here & there, smoke some weed. Normal s**t, but I do feel my body failing. I gotta be here for the people that’s here for me in the long run. I wanna be sober.” For more news and the latest updates on YBN Nahmir, log back into HNHH.

YBN Nahmir Announces That He Is Entering Rehab: “Pray For Me On This Hard Journey”

by

One of the fastest-rising rappers of the late 2010s, YBN Nahmir, admits that he has some personal demons to face. Seeing tons of success so early into your life is exciting but it comes with a lot of extra responsibility. It is all about how you handle it, especially when you are constantly in the public eye. For YBN it all came when he was just 16-17 years old. His 2017 viral hit, “Rubbin off the Paint,” won many fans over. At the time of writing this, the song has over 344 million streams on Spotify and is in his top five most popular tracks.

It set up the foundation for Nahmir’s career. However, around 2020, things began to unravel a bit for him and the YBN group. According to AllHipHop, Cordae dropped the name around that time. Additionally, Nahmir and Almighty Jay butted heads a year later. Then, in 2022, he revealed that he was battling a tough fight with alcoholism. Now, he is looking to turn his life around by heading to rehab.

YBN Nahmir’s Ferocious ‘UPROXX Sessions’ Performance Of ‘Lamborghini Truck’ Shows That He’s Not To Be Played With

by

Cordae may have dropped the “YBN” prefix from his name, but that hasn’t his former collaborator YBN Nahmir from carrying it on his back. With a discography featuring 21 Savage, the City Girls, Offset, and G-Eazy, to name a few, the Birmingham native has fought tooth and nail for his spot in today’s hip-hop ecosystem after exploding onto the scene in 2018 with “Rubbin Off The Paint.”

The inner fighter has been the core of his growing musical archive. During his last stop by UPROXX Sessions, YBN Nahmir performed his flexy track “Spend It“; this go-round he spices it up with a ferocious in-studio performance of his single “Lamborghini Truck” from his 7-track EP Faster Car Music, Vol. 1. For some flexing is a hobby, but for YBN Nahmir, it is a lifestyle, and he’s ready to protect it at all cost.

Watch YBN Nahmir’s UPROXX Sessions performance of “Lamborghini Truck” above.

YBN Nahmir’s ‘How I Blew Up’ Story Takes Him From Xbox Freestyles To ‘Rubbin Off The Paint’

by

YBN Nahmir is a prime example of the How I Blew Up ethos. As he tells Uproxx’s Cherise Johnson, his preparation met perfect timing when his 2017 single “Rubbin Off The Paint” exploded in 2018, climbing to No. 48 on the Billboard Hot 100 and launching Nahmir and his YBN crew to stardom. He explains that he and his friends launched their efforts because, “We was like, ‘We gotta do something. We don’t wanna work for no other man.’” Unfortunately, he recalls, he still ended up stuck at Journeys selling shoes, but he says he’ll “never again” work another regular job.

The thing that changed everything for him was getting an Xbox Live subscription, which allowed him to meet YBN Almighty Jay and the former YBN Cordae. The group started out as gaming rivals but became friends, and their online freestyle sessions inspired Nahmir to take a swing at recording a solo track on the podcast mic he bought for Twitch streaming. Once “Rubbin Off The Paint” — which Nahmir says was originally a diss song for Jay that eventually sparked their friendship — blew up on SoundCloud, he made sure his friends came along with him.

Although the group’s members have more or less split up, they remain tight, and Nahmir has refocused on his solo career, saying, “I was selfless, but now I’m kind of selfish.”

YBN Nahmir Pens Tweet to Fans Regarding Alcohol Addiction

by

YBN Nahmir rose to fame in 2017 following the release of his single “Rubbin Off The Paint,” which debuted on Billboard 100 at number 79 and later rose to number 46. The song grew over 205 million views on Youtube and is one of the Alabama native’s most notable tracks.

While his breakout was quickly growing, alongside his friends, Cordae and Jay, who were once under the YBN moniker, things seemed to stall for the rapper. Fans have been wondering when he will release a new project since he released his debut studio album “VisionLand” in March of 2021.

In a series of tweets, the 22-year-old opened up about his battle with alcohol addiction. “Alright y’all, I feel like it’s best for me to just get this out my system. For 3 years I’ve been struggling with an alcoholic addiction. I’ve changed so much due to it, & not in the right ways. I’ve pushed so many of my love ones away & the people I care about because of it,” said the Opp Stoppa.

“I’ve constantly tried to slow down / stop myself from drinking, but it’s not easy at all. This year I want a new challenge & the challenge is for me to get clean. I never knew addiction was this hard. Before hand it was easy for me to block it out, but now it’s taking a toll.”

 “If you’re struggling with addiction it’s best to seek help. That’s all I’m trying to do. I use to think this was just some ‘normal sh*t until I realized I’m NOT THE SAME ANYMORE. Sh*t is one of the worst feelings ever.”

As more artists become transparent about their addictions, we wish the best for YBN Nahmir and hope to see the rapper take down the charts once more. Check out the video to his breakout single below.
