Slayr has become one of the underground’s biggest artists, while Tiffany Day occupies a similar place in the vocalist/producer space. The two have been teasing a collaboration for quite some time, and on Thursday, they released “Constantly.” Overall, the song is exceptionally produced and fits well within the hyper-pop rap ethos. Meanwhile, both artists deliver rock-inspired autotuned vocals. The chemistry is very much there, and we’d certainly be interested in hearing a collaborative album.

Quotable Lyrics from Constantly

It’s been on my mind constantly
When you say your congrats, never know what to say back anymore
Wish you could’ve been there honestly
‘Cause how am I supposed to act like we both picked up the tickets at the door?

1900Rugrat burst onto the scene with a viral freestyle a couple of years ago. At the time, fans were wondering whether or not he would be a flash in the pan or someone who could sustain success. So far, the artist has fallen into the latter category. He is constantly leveling up his sound, and it remains clear that he wants to do big things in the industry. On Thursday, he dropped off the new song “Lil Birdy,” which is not a Drake freestyle, despite the name. Instead, this is a fully original song with energy that will certainly become infectious.

Release Date: June 18, 2026

Million Dollar Minion – Song by Yeat https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/998850-million-dollar-minion-yeat Thu, 18 Jun 2026 12:13:04 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=998850 Yeat has become the Minions guy lately, and for good reason. Whenever a new movie comes around, he drops a new song.

Minions & Monsters is going to be coming out on July 1, and that is a big deal for the movie industry, given just how popular the Minions franchise is. The soundtrack is slowly being rolled out, and once again, Yeat is going to be a part of it. He came through with the song “Rich Minion” for the film Minions: The Rise of Gru. Now, he is back for Minions & Monsters with his song, “Million Dollar Minion.” Overall, this is a pretty typical effort from Yeat. A paint-by-numbers track, if you will, just with a few Minions references sprinkled into the mix. This is not a bad thing, although if the subject matter doesn’t interest you, then you’re probably going to skip this altogether.

Release Date: June 18, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Album: Minions & Monsters Soundtrack

Quotable Lyrics from Million Dollar Minion

Ri-ridin’ ’round, sat in the truck, in the Bentley truck
Ridin’ ’round, sat in the Bentley truck (Ooh)
Not on my side nobody went next to hеr, harder the shh— (Ooh)
Ooh, cut it up with my Minions (Ayy), filet mignon (Ayy)

Supreme And Martine Rose Are Putting Mike Tyson On The Nike Dunk Low https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/998845-supreme-x-martine-rose-x-nike-dunk-low-mike-tyson-sneaker-news Thu, 18 Jun 2026 02:38:00 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=998845 Supreme, Martine Rose, and Nike are releasing a Dunk Low featuring Mike Tyson artwork from his historic 1986 title win.

The post Supreme And Martine Rose Are Putting Mike Tyson On The Nike Dunk Low appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
The Supreme x Martine Rose x Nike Dunk Low is shaping up to be one of the biggest three-way collaborations of fall 2026. Mike Tyson is the focal point of this release. Early reports promised the shoe would feature an athlete prominently, though no one expected this pairing

Images of Tyson appear across both the lateral and medial sides of the shoe. The artwork pulls from his Judgement Day win over Trevor Berbick in 1986. That fight made the 20-year-old Tyson the youngest heavyweight champion in boxing history.

The rest of the design stays fairly understated outside the Tyson graphics. Plush leather covers a near triple black upper throughout the shoe.

Supreme and Martine Rose branding shows up on the heel. Gold detailing on the Nike tongue tag adds a championship-style finish. Nike, Supreme, and Martine Rose logos all appear printed on the insoles.

This release also marks a notable shift for Supreme. It’s the first time Supreme has worked on the standard Dunk rather than the Nike SB Dunk. That silhouette has carried much of Supreme’s Dunk legacy for decades now.

A sample tag on the early pair suggests final details could still change. The shoe is expected to release sometime later in 2026.

Supreme x Martine Rose x Nike Dunk Low “Mike Tyson”

Martine Rose has built a reputation for turning familiar Nike shapes into bolder fashion statements. Her past Nike work leaned experimental rather than wearable.

Recent projects included warped Air Monarch redesigns and unconventional Shox MR4 builds. This Dunk Low takes a different approach entirely. Rather than reshaping the silhouette, Rose focuses more on storytelling and material choices.

That makes it one of her more accessible Nike collaborations so far. Meanwhile, Supreme brings its own long history to the project. For nearly 25 years, Supreme’s most celebrated Dunk work came through Nike SB specifically.

Stepping onto the standard Dunk changes that pattern slightly. Together, the three names create something that leans on history rather than flashy colors or busy graphics.

Timothee Chalamet Rocked Custom BAPE STA “Knicks” At NBA Finals https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/998841-timothee-chalamet-bape-sta-knicks-sneaker-news Thu, 18 Jun 2026 02:02:00 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=998841 BAPE created custom Knicks sneakers exclusively for Timothee Chalamet to celebrate New York's first NBA championship in 53 years.

Timothee Chalamet wore custom Bape Sta sneakers while celebrating the Knicks’ NBA championship win. Game 5 marked New York’s first title in 53 years. Chalamet was given two 1-of-1 Bape Sta styles ahead of the game.

One pair used a home-themed white, orange, and blue combination. The other featured a black base with blue overlays and orange branding. Both pairs were made in patent leather, with blue star branding running across the white version.

Chalamet wore the white colorway courtside during the game itself. Kevin Le, BAPE’s brand partnerships manager, confirmed the shoes afterward. He clarified the sneakers were not an aftermarket customization job. Instead, BAPE made both pairs exclusively for Chalamet himself.

The sneakers skip official Knicks branding entirely, relying on color alone. Bape Sta details like the ape head heel stamp and star logo remain intact. The colors alone carry the New York connection throughout both pairs.

Neither colorway is expected to get a public release. Both will likely stay exclusive to Chalamet going forward. He wasn’t the only celebrity with custom sneakers that night, since Spike Lee wore custom Air Jordan 3s too. Chalamet has been a visible Knicks fan throughout the playoffs.

Timothee Chalamet BAPE STA “Knicks”

Chalamet has remained a familiar face at Madison Square Garden’s celebrity row. For the championship, he switched things up.

He chose the sportier Bape Sta sneakers instead of his usual courtside footwear. The away colorway leans darker than the home version. It uses a black base with blue overlays and orange accent details.

Meanwhile, the home pair stays closer to traditional Knicks colors. It mixes white, orange, and blue across the patent leather build. Furthermore, brand partnerships manager Kevin Le shared both colorways publicly days after the win.

Since BAPE built these as personal gifts, fans likely won’t see them again. The moment still stands out among the night’s other custom sneaker tributes.

First Look At The Historic Air Jordan 1 Low “Last Dance In The Garden” https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/998837-air-jordan-1-low-last-dance-in-the-garden-sneaker-news Thu, 18 Jun 2026 01:26:04 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=998837 Jordan Brand is releasing the Air Jordan 1 Low "Last Dance In The Garden," a tribute to MJ's history at Madison Square Garden.

The post First Look At The Historic Air Jordan 1 Low “Last Dance In The Garden” appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Jordan Brand is commemorating one of the most memorable seasons in New York basketball history with a special Air Jordan 1 Low OG. The colorway is officially called “Last Dance In The Garden.” It draws inspiration from both the New York Knicks’ 2026 NBA Championship and one of Michael Jordan’s most iconic moments at Madison Square Garden.

The story goes back to March 8th, 1998, when Jordan played his final game at MSG as a Bull. He wore the original Chicago Air Jordan 1 High for that game. Jordan finished with 42 points despite playing through bloody feet that night. That moment later became part of the “Last Dance” documentary covering the Bulls’ 1998 season.

This new pair keeps the classic Chicago color blocking but swaps the usual red leather for woven textile overlays with floral graphics. Metallic gold outlines the Nike Swoosh logos throughout the shoe. Knicks blue and orange show up on the lace loop below the Nike Air branding. The original Air Jordan Wings logo gets stitched into the heels in metallic gold.

Knicks fan Fat Joe will debut the shoe and gave it the nickname. The release is currently scheduled for September 26th through SNKRS and select Jordan Brand retailers. It will be available in full-family sizing from adults down to toddlers.

Air Jordan 1 Low “Last Dance In The Garden”

This pair channels that full circle moment through a more elevated lens. It pairs heritage color cues with premium materials throughout. The build includes woven textile, full-grain leather, and gold accents across the Swoosh trim and eyelets.

Despite the upgraded materials, the shoe stays close to its roots. The sneaker keeps its traditional Air Jordan 1 Low OG shape and tooling, including encapsulated Air cushioning underfoot.

The design aims to capture legacy already secured, rather than the start of a new story. Jordan Brand’s own description keeps things understated, noting that the colors nod to greatness without shouting. Every detail on the shoe ties back to that idea. From the floral overlays to the gold stitching, nothing feels accidental or rushed.

While there hasn’t been an official announcement post on Verzuz’s social media just yet, Apple Music states that B2K and Pretty Ricky will face off on the platform next week. Recently, members of B2K shared a post to social media suggesting that they were discussing who they should go up against on Verzuz. The playful text exchange caught fans’ attention, and Verzuz even reshared the post, leading many to believe that this was all promo for a match-up that’s already in the works.

Later, Apple Music shared a “cheat sheet” playlist, stating that the two groups would be delivering 20 of their greatest hits for the “You Got Served generation.” They added, “This one pits the stars of that very movie, B2K, against Pretty Ricky, another boy band that helped make hip-hop and R&B stardom feel that much more approachable to young fans across the globe.”

This Verzuz Will Reportedly Have A Familiar Host

Last month, we watched Rick Ross and French Montana go head-to-head, and the overwhelming response was that the latter took the crown. There wasn’t a host during that Verzuz, but Bow Wow suggested he would facilitate this round, calling himself “Dana White” in a social media post. If you remember, Bow was featured on Verzuz back in 2021 when he shared the stage with Soulja Boy. Moreover, Bow Wow, B2K, and Pretty Ricky have hit the road together on The Millennium Tour, a huge success that brought nostalgia to fans across the U.S.

Check out Apple Music’s list below and let us know if you’re rooting for B2K or Pretty Ricky. This Verzuz is reportedly set for June 25 at 6:30 PT.

It looks like Vince Staples is doubling down on comments he made years ago regarding Rap beefs. Back in 2017, the Cry Baby star caught up with Complex and shared his opinions on lyrical back-and-forths in Hip Hop. When asked about Remy Ma vs. Nicki Minaj, Ice Cube vs. N.W.A., and even Jay-Z vs. Nas, he stated that he thought it was all corny. “I’m not gonna go book studio time to talk about you,” he said at the time. It was suggested that beefs are a beloved part of Rap, but Staples wasn’t budging.

“So watch a Smack battle. They’re much better at it,” he stated. “King of the Dot. You have the UW League in New Jersey. So many battle leagues. Go watch some Charlie Clips. I don’t wanna see people demean one another for no reason when they can have a phone conversation. Especially when they’re actually successful musicians. There is Battle Rap.” He added, “All that other sh*t they can get the f*ck out of here. That shit is corny as f*ck.”

Vince Staples Stands With The Culture Over Beef

In a newly released interview with Complex, Staples said he still feels the same way.

His previous comments were shared before Kendrick Lamar and Drake went toe-to-toe. Still, Staples was clear that his thoughts on the topic haven’t changed. “I’mma always feel the same way about Black people fighting over nothing,” he said. “But everybody love a mudslinging contest. So, I stay out of it. Entertainment is entertainment. So, if everybody’s entertained, it’s all good.”

Check out the clip below and let us know if you agree with Vince’s take.

Milagro Still Owes Megan Thee Stallion $75K, Requests Delay https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/998827-megan-thee-stallion-milagro-gramz-lawsuit Wed, 17 Jun 2026 23:33:00 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=998827 A judge has reinstated Megan Thee Stallion's $75K payout against Milagro Gramz, as she asks the court to delay the judgment.

The post Milagro Still Owes Megan Thee Stallion $75K, Requests Delay appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

The legal drama between Milagro Gramz and Megan Thee Stallion presses on, as the blogger has attempted to put a stop to the judgment against her. The case centers on allegations that the social media personality participated in a campaign to defame and spread false information about the rapper in the aftermath of the Tory Lanez shooting case. Filed in 2024, Megan’s lawsuit accused Milagro, whose real name is Milagro Cooper, of promoting conspiracy theories about the shooting and sharing misleading claims about the Houston rapper. The complaint also alleged that Milagro partnered with individuals connected to Lanez, including claims that she was compensated to spread favorable narratives about Lanez while attacking Megan’s credibility.

Megan’s legal team argued that the blogger’s content contributed to a sustained effort to intimidate and publicly shame the Grammy-winning artist following Lanez’s conviction. Milagro has denied wrongdoing and has challenged several of the allegations made against her.

This week, headlines suggested that the $75,000 judgment against Milagro had been reduced, but court reporter Meghann Cuniff refuted those claims. The journalist uploaded a series of documents to X, stating that Gramz still owes Megan the $75,000, adding, “She wants a judge to let her hold off on paying until after she appeals the defamation judgment.”

In response, Megan’s legal team argued that Milagro should “at least have to pay a bond equal to the judgment,” Cuniff added. Further, they stated that Gramz should not be granted grace because of her attacks on the rapper. “The same Defendant who showed no hesitation when she broadcast that Plaintiff was a liar, directed her audience to a deep-fake pornographic video of Plaintiff, and threatened to run Plaintiff over with a car, now pleads for the Court’s solicitude so that she may avoid the consequences of a jury’s verdict and this Court’s judgment,” the document reads.

Gramz told the court that she doesn’t have the funds to pay the judgment, citing her role as the mother of two children. See Meghann Cuniff’s update below.

The New York Knicks are this year’s NBA Champions, and as the celebrations continue, Teyana Taylor is bringing clarity to a moment that was captured on video after the team’s big win. The multihyphenate entertainer was among dozens of celebrities who attended Game 5’s victory, and after the event, Teyana was seen in a clip attempting to take the court. Several other famous figures were able to congratulate the team in the paint, but Taylor was denied access by a security guard.

The video quickly went viral, and in it, viewers can see that Teyana kept her cool as security outwardly refused to let her pass. Others stepped in to help her out, but the guard wasn’t compromising her job, even for the Golden Globe winner. After days of the public weighing in on the incident, Taylor resurfaced to give her side of the story.

Teyana Clarifies The Situation

The singer addressed the controversy in a comment on Instagram. “A few things here 😂💙🧡 I was minding my business on FaceTime then I start walking towards the proper entrance and was actually stopped by the first young lady you see talking to me,” Teyana wrote. “Thennnnn KAT’s dad and a few others told me to come in right there where they seen me. Then the other lady came over. I think she was just a little overwhelmed, lol. It was a lot happening. She was def over doing her job but at least she was doing it!”

She added that “EVERYBODY had a hard time getting onto the court at some point.” Teyana didn’t want to “rush or trample” her way in, so she simply remained patient. “Trust me, I had everything I needed to have. I simply had to walk down to the proper entry. I was perfectly fine and on the court less than about 60 seconds after this was recorded. 😂 I had an absolute blast!”
