Lil Zay Osama says he isn’t a fan of 21 Savage and Young Thug’s “f*ck the streets” messaging on social media. He explained his criticism of the slogan in a video message caught by DJ Akademiks. In doing so, Osama accused them of having the wrong intentions.

He explained: “When you say, ‘Listen man, f*ck the streets. Thug, squash the beef. Gunna, squash the beef. Everybody squash the beef. F*ck the streets,’ y’all saying f*ck the streets so y’all can befriend each other, start making music, do a collab tape, and be the best city in hip-hop again and be the best city that sticks together. That’s the name y’all want. That’s what y’all tryna carry.”

“Y’all don’t give a f*ck about the streets bro,” he continued. “You don’t care about the streets gang. If you did, you wouldn’t say ‘f*ck the streets.’ All of us come from the streets. Our mentality comes from the streets. The way we dress comes from the streets. The way we think comes from the streets. What we speak about in our music be about the streets. We got money out the streets. We got family and friends still in the streets.”

21 Savage’s “What Happened To The Streets?”

The drama began when 21 Savage dropped his latest album, What Happened to the Streets?, earlier this month. Afterward, he tagged both Young Thug and Gunna in a post on X (formerly Twitter). He asked them to put their long-standing beef aside and work together again while remarking, “f*ck the streets.”

He wrote: “@gunna @youngthug Yall n***as fix that sh*t. Yall love each other n***a you knew gunna wasn’t no gangster when he told the first time and we swept it under the rug for you you know he wasn’t tryna leave you to hang n***a f*ck the streets we ain’t get sh*t but trauma from that sh*t.”

Thug responded to the post by echoing his sentiment: “F*ck the streets.” The move has been getting all sorts of attention with Blueface, Wack 100, and more voices weighing in online in recent days.

The post Tammy Rivera Labels Nicki Minaj A “Bootlicker” For Her AmericaFest Appearance appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

Nicki Minaj is facing a lot of heat for her time spent at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest this weekend. The Trinidadian rapper’s conversation with Charlie Kirk’s widow, Erika, has gone viral as she once again showed her relatively new and unwavering support of the Trump Administration.

“I have the utmost respect and admiration for our president. He’s given so many people hope that there’s a chance to beat the bad guys and to win. And to do it with your head held high and your integrity intact. He’s from Queens, New York, like me. But what it’s shown me personally is, sometimes, even in the worst-feeling times in your life, you think that you’re never going to come back from it. But you do. Our president shows that.”

This statement, among others, has drawn some fiery responses on social media. Take this one for instance from Jerome Trammel on Twitter. “Nicki Minaj & ANYONE defending her are TRASH. Using Christianity to support Trump, JD Vance, MAGA & Turning Point USA is a disgusting choice. These are the same anti trans bigots she’s riding for. Our existence is NOT up for debate. F*ck their hypocrisy!”

Nicki Minaj Attends AmericaFest

In a sense, that’s how reality TV star Tammy Rivera feels about Nicki Minaj’s stance on Trump and the conservative party. Per The Shade Room and Hollywood Unlocked, Rivera appeared to label the hitmaker a “bootlicker” on her Instagram Story thanks to screenshots from other netizens.

Her captioned was attached to a tweet from J.D. Vance, who praised Nicki for her “profound” words during her time on the panel. To be exact, Tammy’s caption reportedly read, “She’s the epitome of a bootlicker.”

She’s probably feeling extra justified in these last 24 hours or so because folks have dug up an old clip of Erika Kirk’s late husband explaining why Nicki isn’t a good role model for young Black women.

Elsewhere during Nicki’s Q&A with Erika Kirk, she effectively denounced anyone who doesn’t believe in or likes what Donald Trump is doing for the U.S. “We’re the cool kids. The other people, they’re the others that are still just disgruntled. They are angry with themselves… In a world that doesn’t want us to think, we will think.”

Ray J Loses Christmas With His Kids After Allegedly Pulling A Gun On Princess Love https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/966541-ray-j-loses-christmas-kids-pulling-gun-princess-love-hip-hop-news Mon, 22 Dec 2025 20:43:35 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=966541 Ray J has already denied any wrongdoing after Princes Love accused him of pulling a gun on her, last month.

Ray J is now facing six misdemeanor charges following his arrest on Thanksgiving for allegedly pulling a gun on Princess Love during a livestream. In turn, he won’t be able to see his children on Christmas as a judge extended the restraining order against him in court, last week. The charges include brandishing a firearm, use of force, and child endangerment, according to AllHipHop.

In a video obtained by The Shade Room, Ray J admitted that he is missing his family outside of the courtroom. “Man, I don’t even want to talk about it,” he told reporters. “I’m missing my kids. I’m missing Christmas, my son’s birthday.” His son, Epik, will be turning six years old while the order is still active.

Following his initial arrest, Ray J got out of jail after posting a $50,000 bail. He denied having ever pointed a gun at his wife while speaking with TMZ. He claimed he “would never point a gun at anybody, including Princess Love.”

Afterward, Princess Love urged him to seek professional help in a video online. “Check yourself into rehab, because you’re more than drunk,” Love said. “You’re not about to sit here and make me look crazy when I am the best mother since the day my kids been born. Everything I do, I do for my kids, including being around you when I don’t want to or have to.”

Ray J & Princess Love’s Divorce

Ray J and Princess Love originally married back in 2016, but have come close to divorce several times over the years. Love most recently filed for separation in February 2024.

In another livestream, Ray J claimed that he was scared when Love and her cousin came to pick up his children. “This dude is coming in my room. Getting in my bed to take my kids, I’m going to defend my kids and I’m going to defend my space. For my kids, I’m doubling down on that, y’all can’t do that,” he said, despite still denying having pulled a gun on them.

Tory Lanez Claims Evidence From Megan Thee Stallion Case Was Loaded With Errors https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/966519-tory-lanez-evidence-megan-thee-stallion-case-loaded-errors-hip-hop-news Mon, 22 Dec 2025 20:03:02 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=966519 Tory Lanez is now three years into his 10-year prison sentence for the 2020 shooting of Megan Thee Stallion.

The post Tory Lanez Claims Evidence From Megan Thee Stallion Case Was Loaded With Errors appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Tory Lanez has moved forward with his next appeal case regarding the 2020 shooting of Megan Thee Stallion. According to TMZ, he has filed documents alleging there were 60 errors in the medical findings presented at his trial. In turn, he’s calling out former Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon.

He made the claim while citing a report from a software expert. The report claims there was a hospital security guard named Derek Cervantes who said he transferred “foreign bodies” to the hospital. At trial, detectives testified that no bullet fragments were recovered from the hospital.

Tory’s team also claims the medical findings feature tons of other irregularities. Additionally, they say the rapper’s defense team was blocked from accessing 300 more pages of information.

The update comes after Lanez spoke about his case with NBC News, last week. He and his team confirmed that he was going to file another appeal during that interview, claiming to have discovered tons of evidence that was not provided during the trial.

Lanez began his interview by reiterating that he believes himself to be innocent. “I’ve never been violent towards a woman; I would never hit a woman, let alone shoot a woman,” he said. As for the next appeal, he added: “I believe not only that I was wrongfully convicted, but the amount of new evidence that has emerged since that trial, I think, has been overwhelming.”

Regardless of the plan, winning the appeal will be incredibly different for Lanez. His team will have to successfully argue that the evidence is strong enough that it would have completely changed the jury’s decision had it been in the original trial.

Tory Lanez Prison Sentence

The interview with NBC News comes as Lanez is three years into his 10-year prison sentence. During his trial, he was found guilty of first-degree assault with a firearm, discharge of a firearm with gross negligence, and having a concealed firearm in a vehicle.

The California Second District Court of Appeals previously shot down Lanez’s last appeal in November. It ruled there was “no ineffective assistance of counsel or prejudicial trial court error.” Lanez is also seeking a pardon from Governor Gavin Newsom.

G Herbo Puzzled After Being Asked If He’d Work With NBA YoungBoy https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/966516-g-herbo-unsure-about-doing-nba-youngboy-collab-hip-hop-news Mon, 22 Dec 2025 19:16:45 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=966516 G Herbo has deep ties with Chicago and Lil Durk in particular, but despite that, he seemed unsure on how to answer this YB question.

The post G Herbo Puzzled After Being Asked If He’d Work With NBA YoungBoy appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
G Herbo has incredibly deep roots in the Chicago rap scene. He’s been a steady presence there for over a decade and has released a lot of great material, especially with fellow MCs from the area. Lil Durk, King Von, Polo G, and Chance the Rapper are just a few that come to mind.

In the case of the genre, artists within it treat others from their hometown like family in way. So, for example, when one of their own is lost to violence or if they get caught up in a beef with someone else from another city, they are going to stick with them however they can.

But sometimes there are moments when your alliances are tested. That happened to G Herbo recently on a livestream per DJ Akademiks. While chilling with one of his children and others close to him, a fan asked him if he’d work with NBA YoungBoy.

Some might be expecting Herbo to say “no” outright. However, he was left a little perplexed and unsure of how to answer. “Would I?” he asked himself. “Um… I don’t know that’s a good question.”

Do G Herbo & NBA YoungBoy Have Beef?

Hilariously, someone in the background said, “So answer it.” However, he did not give a clear response. As a result, G Herbo’s non-answer has some fans guessing he’s up for it deep down. Others believe he’s telling his son no but in a noble way.

Ultimately, it’s up to you on how you want to decipher this, but it’s interesting for sure.

Some of you may be wondering why Herbo was so hesitant to say anything definitive. If you are one of those people, then let us fill you in. Publicly, there hasn’t been much animosity between him and the Louisiana superstar.

In fact, after the latter’s show in Chicago for his Make America Slime Again tour was cancelled, Herbo admitted that he wished the performance would have happened.

“I ain’t no hater… I wanna see him win… King Von is my brother. I don’t care about that type of sh*t… But I’m all for like empowerment when it comes to like black men.”

However, Chicago rappers, Lil Durk especially, don’t have much respect for YB. That’s because of the messy history involving the late King Von. He was killed in 2020 with Quando Rondo present. He’s an affiliate of YoungBoy’s and some folks believe he had something to do with the murder.

As a result, it’s led to a multi-year feud that now has Durk in legal trouble. He’s currently being accused of organizing a murder-for-hire for Quando, which accidentally killed the latter’s close friend, Lul Pab.

Stefon Diggs Organizes Thoughtful Gesture For Cardi B Before Patriots Game https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/966502-stefon-diggs-event-inspired-by-cardi-b-pop-culture-news Mon, 22 Dec 2025 18:28:12 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=966502 Stefon Diggs decided to give moms like Cardi B a time to unwind during a stressful time of the year ahead of the Patriots-Ravens game.

As you all know, the holiday season can be brutal. The stresses of gift giving, cooking, cleaning, and preparing for the new year are bound to surface. Moms especially have to endure most if not all of these duties, something that Stefon Diggs understands and can relate to.

That’s why the New England Patriots wide receiver organized a day of relaxation to help celebrate mothers for all that they do this time of year. With his Diggs Deep Foundation, the 32-year-old, put together the “Winter Wonderland Wellness Event” this past weekend inside Gillette Stadium per Athlon Sports.

As you can see in the clip from Touchdown Central, Stefon was able to spend some quality time with his boo Cardi B, who’s also a mom to one of his three children. Yoga mats, massages, and skin treatments created a spa-like atmosphere. The mothers who were invited were able to bring their children as well, so it was a wholesome evening indeed.

In an interview with NBC Sports, Diggs said he was inspired to do this because of the lovely lady that raised him by herself.

“It’s the end of the year, I feel like everybody had a hard year, especially for moms… My mom is actually here today — special guest. So, I just wanted to host a wellness day, an appreciation day. Everybody works extremely hard, and I’m extremely blessed. Paying it forward is always going to be something big for me.”

Stefon Diggs & The New England Patriots

This night of appreciation was rewarding for Stefon Diggs. But in a way, it might have bestowed some good karma onto his team on Sunday.

The New England Patriots are back in the playoffs after last making it in 2021. They improved to 12-3 with a come-from-behind victory on the road in Baltimore against the Ravens winning 28-24. MVP candidate Drake Maye led the charge by tossing for 380 yards and two touchdowns. Diggs was also instrumental, tallying nine receptions for 138 yards. They are currently the second seed in the AFC playoffs, but have a chance at the one seed, a first-round bye, and home field advantage throughout the postseason.

Dave Chappelle Jokes About Missing Out On Sex With Diddy & Cassie In New Netflix Special https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/966496-dave-chappelle-jokes-missing-chance-diddy-cassie-new-netflix-special-pop-culture-news Mon, 22 Dec 2025 18:03:42 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=966496 Dave Chappelle is already making plenty of headlines for the jokes from his newest Netflix special, "The Unstoppable..."

The post Dave Chappelle Jokes About Missing Out On Sex With Diddy & Cassie In New Netflix Special appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Dave Chappelle says he thinks he once had a chance to hook up with Diddy and Cassie, recalling an awkward conversation with the Bad Boy mogul during his new Netflix special, The Unstoppable… He joked that Diddy once asked him what he’s “into,” which he now believes carried a very different meaning than he realized at the time.

“I’ve been to Puffy’s house,” Chappelle admitted onstage, as caught by Complex. “No, I didn’t see none of the stuff they said in that trial. I walked to that n****’s living room. House is clean, traction on the floor, nothing slippery. You walk right through. Perfectly normal evening.”

From there, Chappelle explained that he was sitting on the back patio when Diddy hit him with the question. “Puff started swirling his drink like this and he goes, ‘So Dave, what are you into?’” Chappelle recalled. “You know me, I was like, ‘I don’t know, n***a. Books, video games.’ I didn’t know that was my big chance to f*ck Cassie.”

Before moving off the topic, Chappelle praised Cassie for testifying against Diddy during his criminal trial, earlier this year. “Cassie is a gangster,” he said. “She did something I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. She had to testify about her sex life. That’s tough.”

Diddy is currently residing behind bars for two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. He is serving a 50-month sentence for the conviction.

Dave Chappelle’s “The Unstoppable…”

It wasn’t the only point where Dave Chappelle mentioned Diddy during the standup special. Recalling an incident in 2022, in which someone rushed the stage to attack him at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, he revealed that Diddy intervened to help him.

“I was on stage not long ago in the States and people got mad because I said maybe Puff will get off,” Chappelle said. “It’s not that I think Puff is right, but when I got attacked in L.A. at the Hollywood Bowl, people forget Puff was the guy that tackled my attacker. He saved my life.”

He added: “I had security that night, but they just wasn’t ready. They ran out, all them slipped and fell. Puffy got my attacker and tackled him.”
