Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson broke up over the weekend in what was a surprising development for some fans. Meg and Klay seemed to be enjoying their relationship. Things were progressing, and the two had the appearance of a couple looking to get married.

However, that all came crashing down as Meg took to her Instagram to announce that she and Thompson were no longer together. She accused the NBA star of cheating on her and hoping for an open relationship. Furthermore, she accused him of mood swings and taking out his frustrations on her.

Since the announcement, she has revealed that her time at Moulin Rouge would be officially coming to an end. The breakup has taken a toll on her. That said, it seems as though she is still living her life to the fullest.

For instance, a recent video from Live Bitez showcases Megan Thee Stallion out at the club, where she is having what appears to be a whole lot of fun. In the video below, she can be seen taking a shot from in between a woman’s breasts.

Megan Thee Stallion Is Back Outside

Fans were quick to react to the video, with many anticipating some hate from the male audience. After all, this breakup has caused quite the gender divide on social media.

“The way the comments about to tear into a grown woman doing grown woman stuff is wild,” one commenter wrote. “Love Meg down… just want her to heal in a different place. We’ve all been there, no matter what side of the fence,” said another.

Perhaps this breakup will inspire some new music from the artist. If you have been keeping track, Megan Thee Stallion has not released an album since MEGAN back in 2024. A lot has been going on in Meg’s life since then, and we can only imagine what she has to say.

2026 has been a huge year for rap so far, and a Meg album would absolutely move the needle.

The post Power 4 – Song by Slayr appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

Slayr is one of those artists who will have you hooked as soon as you listen to one of his songs. The underground artist operates within the current UG meta; however, he does it in a way that is much more accessible. An artist like 2Slimey goes for the wildest beats and the wildest vocal pitches. Meanwhile, Slayr operates like an artist who actually wants his music to be heard and enjoyed. On his new track “Power 4,” his superior songwriting is on full display. From the production to the melodies, it is clear that Slayr is operating at an exceptionally high level right now, and we can’t wait to watch the rest of his career play out.

Release Date: April 29, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Album: N/A

Quotable Lyrics from Power 4

She on that pole goin’ crazy, ho goin’ crazy
Nobody made me, out of body, crazy
More molly, fading, more molly, fading
Huh, huh (Let’s go), huh, no body, grave site

Jadakiss Wore Air Jordan 3 “Orange Citrus” At His MSG Halftime Performance https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/992565-air-jordan-3-orange-citrus-sneaker-news-4 Wed, 29 Apr 2026 12:20:00 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=992565 Jadakiss wore the Air Jordan 3 WMNS "Orange Citrus" during his halftime performance at Knicks-Hawks Game 5 at MSG.

The post Jadakiss Wore Air Jordan 3 “Orange Citrus” At His MSG Halftime Performance appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Jadakiss took the halftime stage at Madison Square Garden last night wearing the Air Jordan 3 WMNS “Orange Citrus.” The performance came during Game 5 of the Knicks vs. Hawks first-round playoff series. The Knicks went on to win 126-97, taking a 3-2 series lead behind 39 points from Jalen Brunson.

The sneaker choice felt right for the occasion. Jadakiss, a lifelong New York figure, stepped on one of the city’s biggest stages in a clean white and orange colorway. The placement was organic and well-timed given what is coming next.

The Air Jordan 3 WMNS “Orange Citrus” drops tomorrow, April 30th, for $205. Jadakiss wearing the shoe at MSG the night before release is about as good a pre-launch moment as a sneaker can get. Furthermore, doing it during a playoff game at Madison Square Garden gives the placement real cultural weight.

The Air Jordan 3 carries deep roots in New York sneaker culture, making the setting feel appropriate. Additionally, the women’s sizing and clean colorway have attracted crossover interest well beyond the core Jordan collector base. Both factors combined make this one of the more anticipated women’s Jordan drops of the spring.

For sneakerheads, the timing is hard to ignore. A halftime performance at MSG during the NBA playoffs is one of the highest-visibility stages in sports. Jadakiss and the “Orange Citrus” made the most of it.

Air Jordan 3 “Orange Citrus”

The Air Jordan 3 WMNS “Orange Citrus” is a clean, well-executed women’s exclusive that has drawn attention well beyond its intended audience. The shoe features a white leather upper with orange citrus accents on the heel tab, eyelets, and midsole details.

Classic elephant print overlays appear at the toe and heel in a matching orange tone, giving the shoe a cohesive, head-to-toe feel. A red Jordan branding hit on the insole adds a contrasting pop underneath. The visible Air unit sits beneath a white and orange midsole.

The overall look is bright without being loud, which makes it an easy wear across multiple outfit styles.

Colombian urban artist Ryan Castro recently performed his first-ever stadium show wearing the Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 “Brick by Brick” on his feet. The show took place at the Estadio Atanasio Girardot in Medellin.

It drew a crowd of 47,000 people as the homecoming finale of his Sende World Tour. Sneakerheads were quick to notice the footwear choice almost immediately.

Castro wore the all-red colorway throughout the entire performance. The shoe paired naturally with the full red outfit he wore on stage. The look blended together seamlessly without feeling forced or staged.

The “Brick by Brick” is Nigel Sylvester’s first Air Jordan 4 collaboration and his ComplexCon Sneaker of the Year winner. The shoe dresses the AJ4 silhouette in a full red treatment from top to bottom. Cinnabar red covers the upper, wings, heel tab, and outsole, with the signature “Bike Air” branding and Jordan Biking Co. tongue tag rounding out the details.

The “Brick by Brick” originally dropped in 2025 and remains one of Sylvester’s most celebrated releases to date. Castro wearing it on stage keeps the shoe relevant well into its second year.

Demand for the “Brick by Brick” was already high before Castro’s show. The added visibility on a stadium stage in front of 47,000 people only adds to that momentum. It is the kind of real-world co-sign that money generally cannot buy.

Nigel Sylvester Air Jordan 4 “Brick By Brick”

The Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 “Brick by Brick” was one of the best sneakers to drop back in 2025. The shoe also takes the classic “Fire Red” AJ4 layout and rebuilds it in a rich Sail leather base with Cinnabar red accents throughout.

The wings, heel tab, and outsole all lean into warm, earthy red tones that make the shoe feel premium without being loud. Further, the signature “Bike Air” branding appears on the heel tab, and the Jordan Biking Co. tongue tag adds one final Sylvester touch.

Overall seeing it worn head-to-toe against a 47,000-person crowd only adds to the legend.

Views – Album by Drake https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/990784-views-drake-throwback Wed, 29 Apr 2026 09:00:00 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=990784 10 years ago today, Drake dropped off his album "Views," which in the eyes of many, is his most important album to date.

The post Views – Album by Drake appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
By 2016, Drake was arguably the biggest artist on the entire planet. Following a successful feud with Meek Mill, the Canadian megastar was ready to show people that he still means business. That he wasn’t someone you could just mess with for the sake of it. This subsequently led to the creation of Views, his most hyped-up album to date. An album that features some of the biggest songs of his career. From “Feel No Ways” to “One Dance” to “Hotline Bling,” this is an album with massive tracks. It also just so happens to be the 10-year anniversary of the album. With ICEMAN on the way, today is the perfect time to revisit this phenomenal body of work.

Release Date: April 29, 2016

Genre: Hip-Hop

Tracklist for Views

Awards & Commercial Performance

Views was nominated for two Grammys; however, it didn’t win either of them. The Grammys in question were Album Of The Year and Best Rap Album. It did win Album Of The Year at the BET Hip-Hop Awards. It also won Favorite Rap Album at the American Music Awards. As for the sales numbers, Views was an absolute juggernaut. It sold over 1 million units in its first week, which is unheard of these days. Today, the album is nine-times platinum, and soon enough, it will go diamond.

What Did HotNewHipHop Commenters Think?

At the time of the album’s release, fans were extremely enthusiastic about Views. There were plenty of Stans in our comments who were ready to say that this was the album of the year. Furthermore, there were also some haters looking to troll. “The hype is not real…same old soft drake,” one detractor wrote. “King Drake delivered the best album of the year,” proclaimed one true believer. “FUCKING FLAMES. NOT GONNA CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT BUT MY HOUSE IN FUCKING TATTERS,” said another. This album was highly-anticipated and the reactions to it prove that.

Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso presented Shyne with a key to the city during a ceremony at the East Flatbush Young Men’s Mentorship Expo on Saturday. He was recognized for his impact on hip-hop as well as his work as a public figure and advocate. Additionally, Reynoso officially proclaimed April 25, 2026, as “Shyne Day” in Brooklyn.

“Shyne embodies what is possible when a community believes in its young people, and the magic that can happen when young people are given the resources they need to thrive. East Flatbush raised Shyne, and it only made sense to present him with the Key to Brooklyn as we team up to deliver hope and opportunity to dozens of young men today,” Reynoso said at the event, as caught by BK Reader.

Shyne also addressed the crowd. “This is the community that raised me, and it’s important for me to pass that love forward,” he said. “There couldn’t be a better way to celebrate this milestone than coming back home and pouring into the next generation.” He further announced that attendees would receive free tickets to his 25th anniversary concert on May 2 at the Kings Theatre.

Shyne’s 25th Anniversary Concert

The concert will celebrate his self-titled debut studio album, which dropped on September 26, 2000. Despite Shyne’s incarceration at the time, it debuted and peaked at number five on the Billboard 200. It sold nearly 160,000 copies in its first week.

On Tuesday, Shyne shared a video of himself in front of the Kings Theatre on Instagram to promote the concert. “Can’t wait to see you this Saturday, May 2 @kingsbklyn as we celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the Shyne Album…..the celebration will continue @crownhilltheatre where I will meet, take pictures and party with you, my loyal supporters, who’ve made Shyne a Rap Legend,” he captioned the post.

Offset Accuses Security Guard Of Spitting On Him Before Dispensary Brawl https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/992532-offset-security-guard-spitting Tue, 28 Apr 2026 21:56:00 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=992532 Offset is currently being sued by a security guard named Jim Sanchez, who alleges the rapper punched him in the face last March.

The post Offset Accuses Security Guard Of Spitting On Him Before Dispensary Brawl appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

In November, a security guard named Jim Sanchez filed a lawsuit against Offset, accusing him of assault and battery. In the lawsuit, Sanchez alleges that the former Migos member and his crew came to the MedMen LAX marijuana dispensary in Los Angeles, where he was working in March of last year. Allegedly, when he asked the rapper to see ID, he got upset and punched him in the face. Sanchez alleges that Offset’s crew proceeded to jump in, leaving him in need of a hospital visit. He’s seeking punitive, general, and special damages totaling over $25K.

Now, Offset is firing back. According to TMZ, he denies any and all wrongdoing and alleges that Sanchez spat on him, starting the altercation. He wants the whole lawsuit tossed out and to be awarded court costs.

In a new filing, Offset argues that Sanchez shouldn’t be entitled to damages because “[a]t least some of the acts complained of by [Sanchez] were provoked by his wrongful conduct.” He also insists “[Sanchez] was at fault in how he conducted himself.”

Offset Shooting

In addition to the lawsuit, Offset is facing a misdemeanor charge tied to the situation. He’s pleaded not guilty and has a court hearing tomorrow (April 29).

Legal woes are far from all Offset has to worry about these days, as earlier this month, he was shot outside of a Florida casino. Fortunately, his injuries were not life-threatening, and he appears to be well on his way to a full recovery.

During an interview with Creators Inc. last week, Offset opened up about his mindset following the ordeal. “Got to keep pushing,” he explained. “Gladiator mentality, man. The show don’t ever stop at the end of the day. I was blessed enough to be able to still move. So I’m still moving.”

Wack 100 went off on Megan Thee Stallion during a livestream rant, earlier this week, following the news that she broke up with Klay Thompson. A clip of his comments is circulating on social media.

Wack begins by arguing that she should’ve known the relationship wasn’t as serious to Thompson as it was to her. He also accuses her of using the NBA star to get closer to the sports industry. At one point, Wack compares Megan to Beyonce and Rihanna, arguing that fans have never heard similar stories about them.

Megan Thee Stallion & Klay Thompson’s Breakup

Megan Thee Stallion went public with the breakup after accusing Klay Thompson of being unfaithful in a post on Instagram over the weekend. “Cheating, had me around your whole family playing house… got ‘cold feet.’ Holding you down through all your HORRIBLE mood swings and treatment towards me during your basketball season now you don’t know if you can be ‘monogamous’???? B*tch I need a REAL break after this one .. bye yall,” she wrote.

Afterward, she confirmed their breakup in an official statement provided to TMZ. “I’ve made the decision to end my relationship with Klay,” she said. “Trust, fidelity and respect are non-negotiable for me in a relationship, and when those values are compromised, there’s no real path forward. I’m taking this time to prioritize myself and move ahead with peace and clarity.”

While Klay Thompson has yet to speak on the situation, Wack is far from the only person to say Megan should’ve expected the alleged behavior. Both Ebro and Charlamagne Tha God suggested dating the Mavericks player was a bad idea in recent days.

In the wake of the drama, Megan announced that she’s dropping out of her Moulin Rouge! role on Broadway as well. “It’s been such an honor to be part of thee Moulin Rouge family and I’ve met so many amazing people in this theater! Y’all work so hard and I have so much respect for the dedication, the stamina, the work ethic, the time and the effort y’all put into the work!” she wrote on Instagram.

Adam22 is certainly no stranger to beef, and now, he’s wrapped up in some involving Money Man. Allegedly, the podcaster suggested that the rapper is “broke” while discussing DJ Vlad and Boosie Badazz’s latest drama, prompting a heated response. In a clip shared by DJ Akademiks, Money Man flaunts a massive pile of cash, making it clear that his wealth is not an issue. Moreover, he tells Adam that he wouldn’t agree to an interview with him for any less than $50K.

“N***a f*k yo interview unless you pay me 50k gang,” he captioned the clip. It didn’t take long for Adam to fire back. He shared a series of his own clips, mocking Money Man’s first-week sales and calling him out for putting his riches on display.

“It’s crazy how these rappers will take $50K out of the bank and take a picture with it, or pose with it or whatever, and be convinced that they’re doing better than somebody who’s blatantly doing dramatically better than them,” he said. “I say this as a person who refuses to take part in these shenanigans.”

Boosie Badazz & DJ Vlad Drama

“I do not go to the bank and withdraw money to flex on people. I say that standing in my many, many million-dollar office building that I bought with my own hard-earned money,” he added. “The proof is in the pudding. I just don’t put myself out there like that.”

News of Adam22 clashing with Money Man comes just a couple of weeks after Boosie Badazz announced that he’ll no longer be doing interviews with VladTV. According to him, he asked DJ Vlad for a raise and was turned down.

Despite their differences, Vlad says he has no hard feelings towards Boosie and simply didn’t want to lose money. He even claims that he’d have the Louisiana-born performer back in the future if he ever changes his mind.

All of Drake’s studio albums are currently charting on the Billboard 200, ahead of the release of his highly anticipated project, ICEMAN. In turn, he stands as the artist with the most entries on the iconic chart.

As caught by Kurrco, the highest ranking project is his 2011 album, Take Care, at No. 27. Views comes after that at No. 43, followed by $ome $exy $ongs 4 U at No. 52, Certified Lover Boy at No. 60, Scorpion at No. 68, Thank Me Later at No. 75, For All The Dogs at No. 77, More Life at No. 128, and Nothing Was The Same was No. 167.

Lmao it’s wild to think about how much people were hating on it when it came out Vs how it’s held up remarkably well and is outperforming 99.9% of rap albums past and present. I was a lil kid singing my heart out to Keep The Family Close,” one user wrote. Another added: “This is why Jay Z and M*dget Kenny team are so mad. They don’t have the power to stop him. They will have all the interviews in the world to talk down on him, but the people chose Drake.”

When Is Drake Releasing “ICEMAN”?

The charting success comes after Drake finally confirmed the release date for ICEMAN, earlier this month. To do so, he unveiled a massive installation of ice blocks in a parking lot in his hometown of Toronto. He hinted at burying the release date somewhere inside on his Instagram Story afterward. Eventually, fans melted enough of the ice to find a blue bag containing the date, May 15, 2026.

Although he hasn’t shared the tracklist, Drake has already released three singles from the project. They include “What Did I Miss?,” “Which One” featuring Central Cee, and “Dog House” featuring Yeat and Julia Wolf. ICEMAN will be his first solo album since feuding with Kendrick Lamar in 2024.
