Yung Joc Joins Fitness Training Class In Ohio For Surprise Performance

February 15, 2024 by newhiphopnews

These days, Atlanta stars like Yung Joc are either elders in the game, weighing in on the culture and getting new songs named after them, or they’re still holding onto their status. But have you ever seen one perform for a pilates class? Well, that’s not exactly what the Georgia native recently did at an Ohio gym, but he did perform for a crowd taking a fitness training class, and they were all surprised and amped up. Just imagine not having the strength to make it through another leg day, but then the speakers announce the arrival of Joc, and his energy gets you going through another rep.

Furthermore, it was a pretty cool thing to witness, and we wonder if other companies or fitness joints will do more stuff like this. Perhaps a whole cardio and endurance class from Pusha T, or a weightlifting session hosted by JELEEL? Jokes aside, many folks wondered how much Yung Joc made off this, and whether he even did it for the money or for the fun of it. Considering his often wild takes on social media and how he is just as prone to have fun online as he is to get serious, we imagine it was a little bit of both. The important thing is that the “I Know U See It” hitmaker put a lot of energy into the performance itself.

Elsewhere, though, he made headlines as more of a spectator at the end of last year. For example, when the Diddy and Cassie scandal first broke into the media, folks revisited an old Yung Joc interview where he claimed that Sean Combs wanted her to shave her head. It certainly isn’t the only unconfirmed narrative going around concerning this pair, and definitely won’t be the last. Still, a lot of that quieted down in public consciousness as of late, although other lawsuits and accusations remain.

Meanwhile, the 43-year-old also enjoys giving advice to the younger generation whenever he can. He recently had some suggestions for Sexyy Red as she continues to develop her stardom, particularly around her “h*e spirit.” Whatever that means, we’re sure it won’t be the last word on the St. Louis native’s ascent. Regardless, for more news and the latest updates on Yung Joc, stick around on HNHH.

While giving all year round is always a vibe, the holidays open our hearts a bit more as we pull out the decorations and set up the fireplaces to spend time with family, friends and more. Atlanta is giving back for the holidays to those who are less fortunate.

Over the weekend, Saturday Streetz 94.5, Yung Joc + The Streetz Morning Takeover and friends partnered with Walmart, Dwight Howard + Mu Real to give out over 300 + Turkeys to the community on Old National Hwy.

Community members lined up in front of the Walmart and picked up their turkeys, while enjoying good music and fun. Yung Joc, Mz. Shyneka + Shawty Shawty hosted on the Mic, while taking photos and giving each person a Turkey in hand. Atlanta Slingshot Community + Torrey 100 came through in their most decorated low riders and lit up the parking lot. The Gorilla Game Bus kept people interactive with a few games to choose from while they waited and it was all smiles.

The men indulged in Selfcare packages that included massages provided by Miso Natural Wellness Spa, culinary treats made by Chef Camille of Eat Your Greens catering and Chef Lou’s Greatest of the Plates. They also were given full hand scrubs and massages with their manicures to spoil them the right way.

Thanksgiving sets off the fourth quarter holiday experience and it seems these notables are off to a great start mixing the spirit of giving and self-care all in one.

[WATCH] Yung Joc Warns Sexxy Red To Check Those ‘Hoe Spirits’

October 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Yung Joc gave his two cents on new rap star Sexyy Red during an interview with VladTV. The Atlanta rapper warned the St. Louis native about the potential pitfalls that come with sudden fame and ‘hoe spirits’.

“She’s not trying to pretend to be something she’s not,” Joc stated. “I think she’s comfortable in her truth. I think she has to be careful with being exploited… I’m seeing the way she presents herself, and it’s not that she doesn’t know better. It’s what she’s comfortable with doing. I’m not knocking Sexyy Red.”

Joc continued, “I don’t want nobody to think I’m knocking her. I just think she should be a little more sensible when it comes to the censorship because these babies be listening to this s**t. You know what I’m saying? Gotta check those h** spirits.”

He also shared that Red is part of a new generation of female artists who are pushing the envelope in ways that might not be entirely beneficial.

“Now, these women are letting it be known: ‘I’ll do you and your brother, that’s my lick back,’” Joc added. “There are a lot of women doing that, too, but Sexyy Red has a different approach. She has a downright ‘I’m in the hood, I’m out the hood’ approach. ‘I’m promoting classic ratchet h** activity.’ And that’s just what it is.”

Soulja Boy & Yung Joc’s Dances Compared By Travis Kelce Fan In Hilarious Viral Clip

September 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Some dances come and go, others barely even arrive to begin with, but a select few live on for years to come. What’s more is that, with so many trends and styles to keep in mind, a lot of debate can emerge in terms of what people are really dancing. Unbeknownst to him, NFL star (and Swiftie darling) Travis Kelce sparked exactly that conversation when he celebrated after a recent touchdown. By twisting his fists in the air, many people thought that he was “crankin’ dat” Soulja Boy. However, others thought that it was instead an homage to Yung Joc’s “It’s Goin’ Down,” including one viral fan.

Moreover, the die-hard dance expert captured the hearts and laughter of many online users when he debated this with (assumedly) his partner. By demonstrating both dances, the viral fan explained why Travis Kelce was clearly doing the Yung Joc dance, not Soulja Boy’s. “It’s Yung Joc, Breanna” is already a hot and common phrase on Twitter, and people are loving the energy and passion on display. Regardless of what the Kansas City Chief meant to tribute, it’s wild that fans can have such differing interpretations.

Viral Debate Surges Around What Travis Kelce Was Dancing

Hilariously enough, this is just the latest online fixation that people created around Travis Kelce. Even Donald Trump had to weigh in on his budding romance with Taylor Swift, remarking on it to The Daily Caller. “I wish the best for both of them,” the disgraced former president expressed. “I hope they enjoy their life, maybe together, maybe not- most likely not.” In fact, 45 has an odd and slightly surprising relationship with the superstar, which isn’t that shocking considering that she’s probably more famous than him.

“Let’s just say I like Taylor’s music about 25% less now, OK?” he said in 2018 after she blasted him. It’s weird to hear the former U.S. leader even speak on this, but thank any god you believe in that he hasn’t heard about this dance debate. Leave that to the fans, who will keep it going down and cranked for years to come. For more news and the latest updates on Soulja Boy, Travis Kelce, and Yung Joc, stay logged into HNHH. Also, let us know what dance you think Kelce hit down in the comments.

Yung Joc’s Emotive Instagram Post Gets Support From Soulja Boy, The Game & More

May 14, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Yung Joc recently showed his tears to the world in an emotive Instagram post on Friday (May 12) that resonated with many fans and industry figures. Moreover, the Atlanta rapper lamented the state of the world today, remarking on senseless violence, division, and drug use ruining lives. Overall, it was a very tough video to watch for its palpable emotions, but he did suggest some hope, unity, and love towards the end of his message. Unfortunately, some online clowned him for posting something like this out of the blue. Furthermore, there were so many more messages of support, sympathy, and respect, some from his hip-hop peers.

“Raw Emotions,” Yung Joc began his post’s caption. “No hiding behind facades. Can I cry in front of the world? Why am I crying? This world is such a wicked place at times. Our kids are dying before they can live in these streets. Our homes are filled with hate because it’s all around us. Destruction is prevalent. Drugs are running rampant in our community. So many are confused. Ascension is a necessity. Let it out in front of the world. Do you ever feel like just letting it all out? Some will laugh and that’s expected. Some will tap in to see if I’m ok and that’s appreciated. I begging for mercy on all of us no soul unaccounted for. I Love You.”

Yung Joc’s Powerful Post

After his post went viral, Busta Rhymes, Soulja Boy, and The Game were among many to express care for the Bad Boy artist. “We’re here with you and for you King!!” Busta commented under his post. In addition, the California MC left a simple praying emoji in the comments. “You got this,” Soulja wrote to Yung Joc, adding a very important and often overlooked message. “Stay strong and focused. Crying doesn’t make you weak- not being able to express yourself does.”

Hopefully the 42-year-old feels better these days and felt that wave of support as powerfully as others witnessed his emotions. These may be famous figures, but they go through many of the same emotions, struggles, and fears we do. With this in mind, make sure to check in on your loved ones every once in a while. The difference is more than we can imagine. With that in mind, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Yung Joc.
