Wack 100 and Blueface have been in business together for a while now. In fact, Wack manages Blueface and has been a staunch defender of the artist ever since he burst onto the scene.

These days, Blue has found himself at the center of a career change. In the past, he was known as the offbeat rapper who made songs like “Thotiana” and “Bleed It.” Now, Blueface is a Kick streamer. He makes tens of thousands of dollars every week on the platform, and it has him streaming every single day.

In fact, over the weekend, Blueface was in Miami with Wack 100, and they found themselves having an excursion to the club. However, during the ensuing stream, Wack 100 found himself in a heated argument with someone working at the establishment. As you can see in the video below, he even puts his hands on the man.

Wack 100 x Blueface

Eventually, cooler heads prevailed, and the tensions subsided. However, it is still a clip that showcases what kind of antics are going down on these daily Blueface streams.

Wack 100 has been in the news as of late, especially amid the Lil Durk trial. Just last week, he found himself in a heated argument with the mother of FBG Duck. An argument that many felt was in poor taste, given that the subject was Duck himself.

Wack 100 was simply never shied away from being a big personality. These latest arguments are an example of that. Add Blueface and his streams into the mix, and you clearly have some fireworks.

Lil Durk’s Dad Was Sick To His Stomach Over OTF Jam Testimony https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1008930-lil-durk-father-otf-jam Tue, 08 Sep 2026 19:55:11 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1008930 Lil Durk is currently entering the final stages of his murder-for-hire trial, and his dad is speaking out about OTF Jam's testimony.

This afternoon, closing arguments began in the Lil Durk trial. With the artist facing murder-for-hire charges, both the prosecution and defense are making one last case to the jury.

Closing arguments are expected to last well into tomorrow. As a result, it could be another day before the jury is given a chance to deliberate. It’s been a two-week trial thus far, and there has been testimony from the likes of OTF Jam, OTF Vonni, and Flacka.

Jam was the star witness for the prosecution as he pointed the finger at Durk immediately. In fact, over the weekend, he issued a strong message to Durk on Instagram, which some fans felt to be in poor taste given the circumstances.

Regardless, Jam remains steadfast in his decision to testify against the rapper. Durk’s dad, Dontay Banks Sr., has been particularly disturbed by Jam’s testimony. In an interview, he went so far as to say that the situation made him sick.

Lil Durk’s Dad Speaks Out

“This stuff makes your stomach turn,” Banks said.

If convicted, Lil Durk faces life in prison. If he is not convicted, then he could be tried for a couple of other pending cases. Before this trial, the prosecution wanted to include other allegations in the overall case. However, the judge denied these motions, stating that it was simply unfair to Durk and his defense.

As closing arguments wrap up, the anticipation surrounding this trial will continue. With that in mind, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will continue to bring you updates on this ongoing trial.

50 Cent Reacts To Mark Curry’s Claims Over Diddy Documentary https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1008926-50-cent-responds-mark-curry-diddy-documentary Tue, 08 Sep 2026 18:58:05 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1008926 Mark Curry called out 50 Cent this weekend.

The post 50 Cent Reacts To Mark Curry’s Claims Over Diddy Documentary appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
50 Cent doesn’t seem to care about Mark Curry’s grievances after the release of the Diddy documentary they were involved in. The rapper and mogul served as the executive producer of Sean Combs: The Reckoning, which earned him Emmy nominations. However, Curry said that the contract he signed wasn’t necessarily favorable and explained how he was allegedly screwed over.

In response, 50 Cent shared the video to his Instagram page, writing, “Yo chill…what’s your Cash App, $Diddytouchedyourbutt..”

Among Curry’s grievances was that he was told he would receive production credits while his book, Dancing With The Devil, allegedly played a key role in the research and in helping recruit talent.

“I was the one who put that thing together. I was promised a production credit, and the production credit said that even if the documentary was sold, I would be grandfathered into the deal because I helped produce that whole documentary,” he explained. “I saw where 50 [Cent] was like, ‘The proceeds would go towards the victims.’ I haven’t seen that yet.”

Mark Curry’s Deal

He went on to describe the deal he signed for the documentary as being worse than anything he inked for Bad Boy. 

He allegedly only made $69 from the use of “Come With Me,” which was discussed at length in the documentary. “Had I had sync license on it, which I thought we would have in place, then I would’ve made some money off of this Godzilla song, ‘Come With Me.’ Man, I made $69 off of that song because they didn’t have a sync license,” he said.

Curry said that this could’ve turned into a life-changing opportunity that would’ve helped him with other ventures. “The production credit would have enabled me to open other doors to work on other endeavors I’ve been working on,” Curry said.

Blueface & Nevaeh Officially Break Up Amid Sex Tape Leaks And NBA YoungBoy Tattoo Revelation https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1008919-blueface-nevaeh-breakup Tue, 08 Sep 2026 18:55:04 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1008919 Blueface and Nevaeh have had their relationship play out on social media, and now, the two are calling it quits.

The post Blueface & Nevaeh Officially Break Up Amid Sex Tape Leaks And NBA YoungBoy Tattoo Revelation appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

Blueface and Nevaeh have been the talk of Kick over the past month or so, with the rapper raking in tens of thousands of dollars every single week. Their antics have been all over the timeline, and clippers for the couple are feasting right now.

Over the weekend, the two found themselves in a bit of a controversy. It all started when an account popped up on X, leaking Nevaeh’s sex tapes. Subsequently, Nevaeh revealed that she lied to Blueface while he was locked up and got a tattoo of NBA YoungBoy’s face. Initially, she said the tattoo was of Blueface, but that turned out to be far from the truth. The YB tat has since been covered up.

The latest update on these two is not a particularly positive one. On Nevaeh’s own Instagram, she revealed that she is officially single. She also said the entire relationship was traumatic, and she’s glad to be out of there.

Blueface & Nevaeh Are Done

“Everything happens for a reason, it was a long traumatic headache with nothing but negativity. IM SINGLE,” she wrote.

Nevaeh recently gave birth to Blueface’s son. In fact, she gave birth less than a month ago. However, if you’ve been watching Blue and Nevaeh’s streams, then you would know that something like this was inevitable. The former couple was constantly fighting and bickering. While some felt like it was just for the cameras, it is clear that it is not the case.

Despite the breakup, Blueface is expected to continue his Kick enterprise, which has blown up in recent months. At this point, he is one of the biggest creators on the entire platform.

JAŸ-Z’s Friend Emory Jones Receives Pardon From Trump  https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1008920-jay-z-friend-emory-jones-presidential-pardon-trump Tue, 08 Sep 2026 18:33:22 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1008920 Emory Jones was convicted on federal drug charges.

JAŸ-Z might be fighting MAGA Republicans on stage, but behind the scenes, it appears that MAGA Republicans are also pulling strings for him and his friends. Roc Nation exec and close friend of JAŸ-Z, Emory Jones, received a presidential pardon from the White House as part of a new round of clemency actions.

Jones has been widely referenced across Hov’s catalog as a key part of his inner circle. He was hit with cocaine trafficking charges, leading to a 16-year stint in prison. In 2010, Hov famously wrote a letter to a judge, stating that he would have employment for Jones upon his release and a re-entry plan. Since then, Emory Jones became the head of lifestyle at Roc Nation and co-founded the Paper Planes brand.

“Emory’s pardon is a powerful example of what second chances should look like,” Human Rights Attorney Jessica Jackson said of the pardon, per Complex. “The extraordinary range of support for him, from community leaders to some of the country’s most respected business leaders, speaks to the man he has become. It was an honor to be one of many who advocated for Emory, and I’m deeply grateful to President Trump and Pardon Czar Alice Johnson for believing in his redemption and giving him this second chance.”

Emory Jones Pardoned

“Emory Jones…served nearly 16 years in federal prison and came home determined to build a different life,” Johnson wrote. “Today he is an entrepreneur and creative leader whose journey reminds us how much people can grow—and how much good they can still do.”

Despite this becoming a joyous occasion, Bobby Shmurda, whose issues with Roc Nation are no secret, called out Hov after the news emerged. He claimed Hov can’t be gangster because he associates with rats, presumably Desiree Perez, the CEO of Roc Nation, who was a federal informant and also received a Trump pardon.

Jemele Hill Responds After Stephen A.

Smith have been going back and forth as of late, and that hasn't changed following their recent interview.

Jemele Hill and Stephen A. Smith have had their fair share of interactions over the years. Of course, the two worked at ESPN together, and since then, they have found themselves on the opposite side of various issues.

Recently, Hill and Smith talked things out alongside Cari Champion on Flagrant & Funny. Both sides had their fair share of grievances to air out. Whether or not the three-hour conversation was productive is up to the fans to decide.

However, after the show aired, Stephen A. claimed that parts of the interview were cut out. Hill responded on X, saying that there was an editing mistake in the video, but the full audio can be found wherever you listen to podcasts.

“I hate to even address this because it’s feeding a false narrative,” Hill wrote. “The FULL interview is out on iHeart, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts and has been that way from the beginning. An editing mistake occurred involving the video — and no, Cari and I don’t have anything to do with the video — and that is why there is some video footage unaccounted for.”

Jemele Hill Reacts To Stephen A’s Claims

Hill then went on to say that Smith’s team was made aware of the error, which proves that he was already privy to the information.

“This mistake was shared with Stephen A’s team, and they were also provided a full transcript as well as told exactly how it happened,” Hill continued. “Nothing nefarious occurred. Trust me, there is no smoking gun in the unseen video footage and you can go to the audio and listen for yourselves. The 20 minutes that is alleged to be missing is ALL there in the audio version.”

The conversation was meant to squash any underlying tension. However, Smith created an issue as soon as he left the show. It just goes to show that for Smith, a lot of this is about showmanship and WWE-type antics, instead of doing something productive.

Kodak Black Makes Police Wait For Him To Finish Eating Before Arrest In Bodycam Footage https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1008914-kodak-black-eating-police-arrest-footage Tue, 08 Sep 2026 17:31:49 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1008914 Kodak Black appears incredibly calm during the interaction.

Kodak Black’s year started on a pretty rough note. Although he’s accomplished plenty on his own, including becoming an independent artist, his legal issues have remained a major hurdle. Unfortunately, it feels like every month, some sort of footage of a previous arrest surfaces online.

Most recently, a video surfaced of one of Kodak’s arrests back in May. It’s a rather odd video, showing Yak nonchalantly finishing a plate of takeout while the police wait for him. “He’s so hungry,” someone’s heard saying. The video then shows Kodak Black extending his hand and giving the arresting officer a handshake, who asks him if he’s ready. Yak gives him a thumbs up but continues eating. 

“The faster we get you there, the faster you get through,” the officer says as he places the takeout container inside the car as he hops out. Throughout the entire interaction, Kodak Black is incredibly calm, and police evidently reciprocate that energy back to him.

Kodak Black’s Arrest Video

According to the Jasmine Brand, the footage relates to a prearranged surrender connected to an investigation in Orlando last year. Police said they found cash and MDMA in his car, along with documents that had Yak’s government name on it. They also said that the objects found in the car were similar to those seen on his Instagram page. Ultimately, Kodak Black pleaded not guilty to trafficking MDMA and posted bond. 

In other Kodak Black-related news, the rapper recently appeared on the remix of Yung Miami’s hit record “Spend Dat” along with Lil Baby. Moreover, his song “Skrilla” was included in the extended trailer for GTA VI on Netflix, which might indicate he has other songs in the game’s official release in November.

Lil Durk’s murder-for-hire trial is barreling towards its conclusion this week. Closing arguments are being made in Los Angeles today, while there is an expectation that jury deliberations will begin on Wednesday.

This is a big moment in the case, especially as Lil Durk is facing life in prison for allegedly orchestrating a murder-for-hire plot on Quando Rondo. While Rondo was the initial target, Lul Pab was the individual who was killed.

Last week, supporters showed up outside the courthouse, where they could be seen wearing “Free Durk” t-shirts, all while holding up signs with a similar message. Today, Durk’s supporters were in front of the courthouse again, this time in larger numbers.

Lil Durk Trial Continues

However, according to Law & Crime reporter Cathy Russon, this crowd may not be authentic. According to her reporting, she was tipped off by someone who works as an extra that actors were being offered $125 for six hours to show up and stand in front of the courthouse.

In the image attached to Russon’s tweet, the description reads “Court support rally member. Rate: $125/6HRS. Female | Male |18-50 | Any Ethnicity | Comfortable participating in a peaceful court support rally.”

This is certainly an interesting development, especially when you consider how there was authentic support for Durk when the trial first started. If you remember, G Herbo and Doodie Lo came out to support.

Doodie Lo, specifically, has been the subject of criticism as he was seen streaming with N3on outside the courthouse. Furthermore, he even filmed a music video, which some felt was in poor taste.

Closing arguments are happening as we speak, so stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest news and updates.

We’re nearing the end of Lil Durk’s murder-for-hire trial but it’s hard to say what the outcome will be. The prosecution and the defense both rested their cases last week after plenty of intense testimony. However, the defense didn’t go down without a fight, dishing out strong cross examinations that has made his dedicated fanbase and supporters confident that he couldbeat the case.

Durk’s father, Big Durk, sat down with N3on before closing statements where he discussed the case. When asked about what part of the case that isn’t getting discussed enough, Durk explained how he felt that there are a lot of flaws in the prosecution’s argument that people are overlooking.

“The fact that these people, these witnesses and this evidence is so weak, you know?” he said. “People aren’t focusing on that. Why is the government doing that?”

Big Durk Speaks On Lil Durk’s Case

Durk explained that he feels as though the jury should see through it when they are sent out to deliberate. “I’m praying that the jury sees through that weak evidence and these witnesses up here,” he said. He added that he doesn’t feel that any of the witnesses’ testimony lines up with each other. “Ain’t nobody story consistent,” he added.

The closing statements for Lil Durk’s trial is expected to begin today, September 8th, 2026. The trial saw some of Durk’s close associates take the stand, such as OTF Vonnie and OTF Jam, and both of their testimonies led to arguments that spilled over into the timeline. Jam, specifically, shared an alleged statement online where he accused Durk of screwing everyone over.

Lil Durk is currently on trial for an alleged murder-for-hire scheme that led to the death of Lul Pab. Throughout the trial, OTF Jam, OTF Vonni, and Flacka have testified against Durk.

They have all said the same thing: Durk allegedly told them to get vengeance for the death of King Von. Quando Rondo was the alleged target, although it was Pab who got killed in the end.

If convicted, Durk faces life in prison. Today, the trial will begin to reach its conclusion, as according to reporter Michael Blackshire, closing arguments are taking place this morning. The prosecution will reiterate its case, and so will the defense.

From there, the jury will get to deliberate and give a verdict. A verdict could take hours, or it could take days. It all depends on how the jury members feel about the evidence presented. It is believed that jurors will begin deliberations on Wednesday.

Lil Durk Trial Continues

This is a case that the hip-hop world has been watching closely over the past couple of weeks, and it is easy to see why. Durk is a superstar in the rap world, and there is a chance he may not come home. Furthermore, even if he gets a not guilty verdict, he could be tried for other allegations that prosecutors originally tried to include in this trial.

His lawyers are Drew Findling and Brian Steel, who have worked with the likes of Gucci Mane, Young Dolph, Young Thug, and even Diddy. This is one of the most high-powered legal defense teams money can buy, and it remains to be seen if they can get their client a favorable outcome.
