Cassidy Feels “Disrespected” By Tory Lanez’s Response To Stealing Bars

by

The war of words between Cassidy and Tory Lanez continues after the Rap veteran issues a response. Earlier this week, Cassidy took to Instagram to share a video that showed that over the years, Tory Lanez has been influenced by his style. The back-to-back clips of Lanez and Cassidy’s rhymes proved that bars were borrowed—or stolen, depending on who you ask—and later, Lanez admitted that Cassidy was one of his favorite artists. However, Lanez was hit with an onslaught of backlash and returned with another take.

“I guess this is what happens when you try to pay homage,” said Lanez. “The first freestyle I shouted ya name out because you did inspire me. The second one I went on YOUR beat. Sh*t is sad how you old n*ggas be mad at the young n*ggas for not showing love then when we do…we get responses like this.”

That could have been the end, but Cassidy let his feelings be known during a chat with Hip Hop Uncensored.

“I feel disrespected that he feel like just because he [an] artist with some songs out, that him rappin’ to my beat is like, I should feel privileged. Like I should feel like he doin’ something for me, like I should feel grateful. F*ck outta here,” said Cassidy. “N*ggas been rappin’ to my beats. I been doin’ this sh*t way before you came around. I don’t give a f*ck about you rappin’ to my beat… Pay homage for real, n*gga. Pay homage for real.”

“Pay homage and let n*ggas know I’m the reason why you sound and rap like that. Don’t just f*ckin’ rap on my beat. And I don’t need no f*ckin’ shoutouts from n*ggas. I ain’t never asked for no shoutouts. I go plenty of relationships and I don’t ask n*ggas to shout me out… I don’t give a f*ck about none of that, man.”

Cassidy added that he has real responsibilities, a family, a company, and “people that I gotta take care of.” He reiterated that shoutouts from other artists and rapping over his beats aren’t things he necessarily cares about, but he does “give a sh*t about n*ggas stealing my sh*t, running with my sh*t, not giving me the credit.” He added that had he not posted the video calling out Lanez, “the majority of people that heard that freestyle wouldn’t have even knew he took my sh*t.”

The fanbase that has been rocking with Cassidy for years recognized it, but mainstream Rap fans didn’t notice. “The average person ain’t even know he was taking sh*t. They just thought they liked it. They just giving it the thumbs up and thought he was killin’ it ’til they realized he was robbing sh*t.”

Eazy-E’s Daughter Ebie Called Out By DJ Speed For Tense Moment At Rapper’s Gravesite

by

We’re set to receive a new documentary about the controversial life and death of Rap legend Eazy-E, but first, it was time to make sure his gravesite was taken care of properly. The late N.W.A. rapper’s daughter Ebie is spearheading the docuseries The Mysterious Death of Eazy-E, and as fans await the premiere next month, Eazy’s loved ones recently gathered at his resting place to reportedly celebrate the rapper’s headstone getting an updatehttps://www.hotnewhiphop.com/eazy-e-blessed-with-new-tombstone-on-his-55th-birthday-news.90203.html with the correct information.

DJ Speed was there with Eazy’s loved ones, including several of the rapper’s children, and there was a tense moment when Ebie said a few words about her father’s gravestone getting an update. “It’s been almost twenty-five years that this tombstone has had the wrong birth year on it,” Ebie began.

“How that happened, I have no idea, makes no sense. I don’t know how you couldn’t have known your husband’s birth year but okay.” Ebie was told it was a simple mistake. “Our dad is Eazy-E. There’s no such thing as a simple mistake,” she replied. “It shouldn’t have taken twenty-five years to change. This is a legend. This is our father. It should have been done as soon as we asked.” She then mentioned that her sister fought for the change for many years and “had to do some things to make this happen.”

DJ Speed shared a video of the awkward moment and he wasn’t happy with what took place. “Here you guys go,you get to see EB act like her mother in front of Eric’s whole family including his mother,” he wrote in the caption. “This is the type of energy they bring,I never wanted to post this but you guys need to see how childish & ignorant she acts,shout out @wrknwn0feelns @lileazy_e for keeping things going even with this interruptions.”

Despite the minor uncomfortable moment, Eazy-E’s loved ones were happy to see that the headstone issue is now a thing of the past. Watch DJ Speed’s clip below.

Grimes Get Dragged For Admitting Elon Musk Doesn’t Help Fund Music Career

by

She has been dating a billionaire mogul for years, but Grimes recently clarified rumors that her beau, Elon Musk, was helping her financially fund her career. Grimes and Musk have been together since 2018 and just last year, they welcomed their son, X Æ A-Xii Musk, into the world. The unconventional, yet wealthy couple has often stolen attention for their controversial moves and remarks, and the public seemed to assume that Grimes was funding her music career with the help of Musk’s reported $160 billion net worth.

The singer has worked as an independent artist but on TikTok, she was seen dancing to her song “100% Tragedy” and mentioned that she inked a record deal. “My label thinks this isn’t a single what do y’all think?” she asked.

Soon, her comments were filled with questions regarding why she would sign to a label if Musk could help her financially. “Need to get out of the gate-keeping of indie music and I need $ for music videos etc haha contrary to popular belief my bf doesn’t fund my career,” Grimes replied.

The response opened Grimes and Musk’s romance up to becoming the butt of jokes from people who questioned what connects the two, but they seemed to be happily in love. Grimes even appeared alongside Musk on Saturday Night Live during the tech mogul’s hosting gig on the long-running, late-night sketch comedy show.

Months ago, Grimes reportedly sold her crypto-art for $5.8 million, so she certainly isn’t hurting for cash. Check out Grimes explaining herself below.

Dak Prescott Declines To Share Vaccination Status: “I Think That’s HIPAA”

by

As the Delta variant of COVID-19 sweeps across the United States, the NFL is taking drastic measures to ensure the safety of its players. Whether or not one decides to receive the COVID-19 vaccine is a personal choice, however, NFL executives are making it difficult for players and teams who opt to remain unvaccinated. This evening (July 23), Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott was questioned about his vaccination status following the new set of strict rules enforced by the league.

During a news conference, a reporter mentioned to Prescott that running back Ezekiel Elliot stated that the quarterback had yet to be vaccinated. When asked about it, Prescott seemed hesitant.

“I don’t necessarily think that’s exactly important. I think that’s HIPAA,” Prescott answered. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act enforces that health care professionals and industries protect a person’s medical information against theft or fraud. 

“I understand everybody’s opinion and I think everybody has that right,” Prescott reportedly added. “We wouldn’t live in this country and we wouldn’t be in the position that we’re in if that wasn’t the case. Obviously, we all have to do better jobs of educating ourselves, of educating our neighbors. Just on this whole pandemic, just this whole situation, the vaccine.”

People noted that Prescott is quick to offer updates regarding his injuries and recoveries without citing HIPAA in the past. Many also called him out for misusing the term. Watch Dak Prescott give his response and read through a few reactions below.

Bobby Shmurda Returns To The Stage At Rolling Loud For One Of His First Post-Prison Performances

Looks like Bobby Shmurda just took the stage for his first official show back now that he’s officially out of prison. Though Shmurda was slated to appear at the All Star Weekend this spring to perform alongside 50 Cent, that show was unexpectedly canceled. So when the line-up for Rolling Loud was announced this past April, fans were eager to get a do-over for the “Hot N—-” rapper’s long-awaited return.

When Shmurda went to prison back in 2016 on a plea deal along with fellow GS-9 crew member Rowdy Rebel, the pair were some of the, ahem, hottest artists out. Now, it’s still unclear if Bobby can return to his former glory after all this time has passed, but considering his first hit was a product of the viral Shmoney dance and spread via social media clips, it seems like he already has the blueprint down, no? And considering Migos have his back several times over, and he’s closely following his parole guidelines, it looks like he’s well on his way to a come back.

Check out some clips of Bobby’s performance below, and here’s hoping he’ll be gracing a lot more stages this year. If anyone deserves a chance to get back on stage and prove his worth, it’s an artist like him who tragically had his career cut short.

In the latest kid-who-cried-DONDA-wolf update, it doesn’t seem that fans will be receiving the anticipated album just yet. Earlier this week, Kanye West announced that DONDA would arrive Friday (July 23), however, the record did not materialize. There was first a listening event at the ChurchLV in Las Vegas and later, thousands of people made their way to Atlanta’s Mercedes-Benz Stadium to watch the rapper deliver DONDA at a listening party. Tickets for the event reportedly sold for $20 or $50, not including the food items and merchandise that was for sale.

Now that Friday has come to an official close in much of the U.S., it is clear that DONDA won’t be released anytime soon. Justin Laboy has been offering updates about West and the album’s release, even just hours ago saying that Ye is in the studio making last-minute magic and DONDA may arrive anytime.
