The state of Atlanta in terms of its rap community is not in the healthiest of places. Young Thug and Gunna are still at odds. Things feel weird between Quavo and Offset. And as of yesterday, it seemed 21 Savage and Future were going to be butting heads.

Thankfully, though, the trap icons were able to shut it down quickly. In the midst of 21 trying to end those aforementioned tensions on his X, he tweeted out that he felt he was the “realest” for playing mediator. Per theJasmineBrand and DJ Akademiks, this supposedly caught Pluto’s attention.

“DA BIGGEST N DIS $H*T [eagle emoji],” he responded subliminally. Savage then hit back without tagging Future, “The biggest change all the time [dagger emoji double eyes emoji].”

But instead of going down a verbally violent path, Future extended peaceful words. “Bigger than da net. US,” and “@21savage u my lil brother for infinity. US 6.”

His “X” collaborator was more than receptive towards him by apologizing. “@1future I apologize my brother I should of called you first… Us!!!”

Moreover, at some point during the night, Big Bank orchestrated a FaceTime so they could bury the hatchet even more.

What Happened To The Streets? First Week Sales

It’s unclear why Future wanted to challenge 21 in the first place as they have never shown any animosity towards one another before. But it’s good to see that their good and that rappers in the scene, like Savage, are doing what they can to rebuild what was once a tight knit community.

Hopefully, the rest follow suit.

In other news, 21 Savage is awaiting where he’s going to be debuting on the Hot 200 chart. Last Friday, he dropped his sort-of surprise fourth album, WHAT HAPPENED TO THE STREETS?

The project had some splashy collabs, including one with Drake on “MR RECOUP.” However, it appears that the Slaughter Gang CEO is going to have a middling and/or disappointing first week. It’s been reported that projections are at just 53,000. In comparison to his 2024 project, american dream, its roughly half of what he brought in then (133,000).

Mariah The Scientist’s Engagement Ring Goes Viral For All The Wrong Reasons https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/965830-mariah-the-scientists-engagement-ring-viral-gossip-news Thu, 18 Dec 2025 14:50:04 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=965830 Young Thug proposed to Mariah The Scientist at his show in Atlanta this week, and social media users have a lot to say about it.

At his Hometown Hero show in Atlanta earlier this week, Young Thug decided to take his relationship with longtime girlfriend Mariah The Scientist to the next level. He got down on one knee and popped the big question, and fortunately for him, she said “yes.” Fans couldn’t be more excited for the happy couple, but the songstress’s engagement ring is currently going viral for all the wrong reasons.

The Neighborhood Talk recently shared a video of the ring on Instagram, which sparked big reactions from social media users. “It’s ugly, but I’m single so I’ll just sit this one out,” one commenter writes. “It look like it came from the titanic 😩,” another claims. Someone else simply says, “he dead ass wrong.”

Mariah has not publicly commented on the buzz surrounding her ring, although she herself seems pleased with it, which is all that matters.

How Long Have Young Thug & Mariah The Scientist Been Together?

Moreover, she and Young Thug have been an item for roughly four years now. It’s possible that he knows something about her personal taste that the rest of the world doesn’t.

As for what’s next for the pair, that remains to be seen, though it looks like there’s a strong possibility that a child is in their future. During an interview with Angie Martinez this month, Mariah expressed a desire to settle down and get pregnant, though she still plans to make her career a priority.

“I want to be married,” she explained. “That’s my plan. I can’t speak for everybody. That’s my plan, though… I want a baby, I want at least one. I’ll start with that and see how I can manage. […] I just want a commitment that doesn’t involve an obligation to a baby. I just want it to be out of love, not out of responsibility.”

“Thinking To Myself” finds Lil Double 0 getting introspective with raw and melodic songwriting. The production is minimal but moody, which gives the artist an opportunity to let his voice shine. He has a unique cadence, and it allows him to show off his emotions, or lack thereof, through his voice. The hook on this song is sticky, and there is no denying that the artist continues to improve his songwriting abilities. The storytelling here is impressive, and it is clear that the artist is gearing up for a huge 2026. We look forward to whatever is next for the artist.

The Air Jordan 3 “Laser” is officially set to return in Summer 2026, bringing back one of the more experimental designs in Jordan Brand history. Originally introduced during the mid-2000s, the Laser concept pushed the Air Jordan line beyond traditional color blocking.

It leans into detailed artwork and storytelling etched directly into the upper. Sneaker Bar Detroit reports that the Air Jordan 3 “Laser” will be released in the fall of 2026.

Now, nearly two decades later, the idea is coming back with a modern lens. This upcoming release keeps the focus on craftsmanship and detail rather than bold color. Instead of loud contrasts, the “Laser” relies on intricate linework that wraps across the leather panels, giving the shoe depth the longer you look at it.

Jordan Brand has been leaning into heritage lately, and revisiting the “Laser” theme feels like a nod to a specific era of experimentation that collectors still appreciate. The Air Jordan 3 remains one of the most important silhouettes in the entire lineup.

It was the shoe that saved Jordan Brand in 1988, and it continues to be a canvas for storytelling today. Bringing the Laser concept back on this model feels intentional, pairing one of the most iconic shapes with one of the brand’s boldest ideas.

Air Jordan 3 “Laser” Details

The Air Jordan 3 “Laser” features a clean white leather base covered in detailed etched graphics. The laser patterns stretch across the upper and midfoot panels. Black accents anchor the heel and midsole. Subtle gold touches appear near the collar.

The outsole keeps things neutral and balanced. The design feels layered without being busy. Every angle reveals something new. It looks refined, artistic, and intentionally different from typical Jordan 3 releases.

With a Summer 2026 release date locked in, the Air Jordan 3 “Laser” is shaping up to be a quiet standout. It may not scream for attention, but it rewards anyone who takes the time to look closer. Also, the retail price of the sneakers will be announced closer to when they drop.

]]>
The Air Jordan 11 “Gamma Blue” officially made its return today, giving sneaker fans another chance at one of the most important Jordan releases of the modern era. When the pair originally dropped, it sold out instantly, cementing its place as a historic release day moment.

Years later, demand clearly has not slowed. If anything, today proved that the appetite for the “Gamma Blue” is still very real. Earlier today, the first wave of restocks rolled out through Finish Line and JD Sports, with pairs disappearing quickly once again.

Nike, Foot Locker, and other major retailers were also closely watched throughout the day, as fans scrambled to track down remaining inventory. While availability varied by retailer, the overall response mirrored the original release, fast sellouts and plenty of frustrated refreshes.

The Air Jordan 11 “Gamma Blue” has always stood apart from traditional colorways. Its darker palette and electric blue accents helped redefine what a non-OG Jordan 11 could look like. At the time, it felt risky. In hindsight, it helped push Jordan Brand into a more experimental era.

Even though today’s restocks have wrapped up, the story may not be over. Additional restocks could still surface in the coming days, especially online. For those who missed out again, staying alert might pay off.

Air Jordan 11 “Gamma Blue” Details

The Air Jordan 11 “Gamma Blue” features a sleek black upper with glossy patent leather wrapping the lower half. Bright blue accents add contrast along the branding and outsole.

The midsole stays clean and simple. An icy translucent outsole completes the look. The silhouette feels sharp and modern on foot. The color blocking still feels bold years later.

It balances elegance and edge naturally. The design remains instantly recognizable from any angle.

For now, the Air Jordan 11 “Gamma Blue” remains just as elusive as ever. Today’s restocks confirmed the colorway still carries serious weight in sneaker culture. If more pairs surface in the coming days, expect the same level of chaos all over again.

Winter Blanco Urges The Public To Believe Trey Songz’s Accusers https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/965801-winter-blanco-trey-songz-accusers-music-news Wed, 17 Dec 2025 23:03:02 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=965801 Winter Blanco previously alleged that Trey Songz physically assaulted her in 2018, and that she was too afraid to come forward.

Trey Songz has faced various serious allegations over the years. During an episode of Behind The Likes in 2024, for example, Winter Blanco alleged that she was physically assaulted by the performer in 2018.

“He put his hands on me and I never talked about it,” she alleged at the time. “This is the first time I’ve ever talked about this publicly, I really don’t give a f*ck anymore. He put his hands on me, scared the f*ck out of me and I never said anything.”

“At the time there were girls settling for like $100,000, $200,000 and I never did it… In 2020, when that girl came out saying that he raped her, I had her lawyer reach out to me… I was like ‘I can’t be a part of it.’ But like, now where I am in my life, I’m tired of letting abusers get away with so much sh*t,” she continued. “I was not going to ever talk about it because I was still trying to do music, I was just like, ‘I don’t want this to affect my career.’”

Trey Songz Allegations

Now, she’s decided to speak up once again, this time urging the public to believe the accusers who have shared their own alleged experiences with Trey Songz. According to her, where there’s smoke, there’s fire.

“All I’m doing is waiting for the Netflix documentary. It’s coming. The Trey Songz situation is so disheartening to me,” she explains in a clip shared by The Neighborhood Talk. “Why does it take so many people for y’all to believe women? Why do y’all hate women so bad that everybody got to be lying on this man?”

“Nobody is lying on this man,” she alleged. “If anything, more people are too afraid to come forward about this man. This man should not even be able to be out and about on the streets running around, roaming around, like at all.”

Wale has opened up about his awkward run-in with Kai Cenat at the BET Awards from earlier this year. Speaking with Shannon Sharpe during a recent appearance on his Club Shay Shay podcast, the iconic rapper explained that his mental health took a toll after the livestreamer failed to recognize him at the event.

“Kai Cenat talking about mental health. He gets it now,” Wale said on the show. “Imagine giving your life to this game, then you go to support the culture that you’ve been a part of for 13 years. Then you go online, and everybody’s like, ‘Yo, @KaiCenat, he didn’t know who you were.’”

Fans on social media have been having mixed reactions to Wale’s handling of the situation. “Wait is he saying his mental was affected bc a 23 year old who listens to Michael Jackson didn’t know him?” one user wrote on X (formerly Twitter). Another added: “Kai was too young to recognize someone who is not as relevant anymore, also Kai doesn’t pay attention to a lot of stuff when he is in the middle of a stream, which he was. Like just go back under the rock you been in bruh.”

What Happened Between Wale & Kai Cenat?

The drama began when Kai Cenat said what’s up to Wale at the BET Awards and then quickly admitted afterward that he had no idea who the rapper was. Wale later confronted him over the moment, saying: “That sh*t making me look crazy now, just so you know. That’s making me look crazy, the exchange we had in the hallway. I mean, they running with it, but we’ll talk later.” 

Cenat ended up apologizing during a later livestream. “I’mma go ahead and say to Wale, I hope he didn’t take my interaction personal,” he said at the time. “How can you blame me from being who I am? You feel me? I’m young!” He then noted that he was only nine years old when “Lotus Flower Bomb” came out.

“Burn Cage” Reportedly Discovered At D4vd’s Hollywood Rental Home https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/965774-burn-cage-discovered-d4vds-hollywood-rental-home-hip-hop-news Wed, 17 Dec 2025 22:14:13 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=965774 Authorities are still investigating the death of Celeste Rivas after she was found in the trunk of a Tesla belonging to D4vd.

The post “Burn Cage” Reportedly Discovered At D4vd’s Hollywood Rental Home appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
A private detective hired by the property owner of a home D4vd was recently renting says he allegedly found a “burn cage” while investigating the residence. The man, Steve Fischer, described his findings in a lengthy post on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday.

In the post, he noted that the cage was advertised to burn at 1,600 degrees, while cremations are often performed at about 1,400 degrees, as caught by The New York Post. “Although my words have been misquoted by some, what I actually said about certain items found at the Doheny address was that they were ‘items you would expect to find on a farm rather than in a home in the Hollywood Hills.’ One of those items was a Burn Cage incinerator, advertised to burn at 1,600 degrees. Human cremations are typically performed at approximately 1,400 degrees,” Fischer wrote.

He continued: “Some will argue that this item was intended as a prop for a video. If that were the case, it raises several obvious questions. Why would a 55-pound burn cage be delivered to a private residence instead of directly to a prop designer or production house? Why would it be ordered before departing on an extended world tour? And why was it never used in any video production? It is also important to note that there were additional items present that could be used in conjunction with the burn cage.
To be very clear, this burn cage was not used. It was still new and in the box.”

Steve Fischer’s post comes as authorities continue to investigate the death of Celeste Rivas. Police discovered the remains of the teenager in the trunk of a Tesla belonging to D4vd, earlier this year. The singer was on tour at the time, but canceled the remaining dates in the wake of the news.

The Los Angeles Police Department has yet to comment on the “burn cage” discovery. Captain Scot Williams recently clarified that Rivas’ body was not decapitated, despite rumors to the contrary. They haven’t made any arrests in the case, and D4vd isn’t being charged with any crimes.

Following the cancellation of Ebro In The Morning, Drake made it clear that he was happy to see it go. This doesn’t exactly come as a huge surprise, as the personality has been anything but easy on the Toronto rapper over the years. In response to him celebrating his show’s demise, Ebro took to X to accuse both him and DJ Akademiks of being “right-wing.” Peter Rosenberg then chimed in to call Drake out and confirm that he has high hopes for the future.

“It’s behavior like this that has made it impossible for people to defend the wack s**t that he does …” he wrote. “But happy Hanukkah my one time pal .. I truly wish you well even if you’re celebrating what you believe is our demise (spoiler alert — we’re about to be much bigger now that we won’t be held back by a company that is and has been completely lost ever since they bought the station!).”

The back and forth continued when Ak jokingly prescribed the two of them ayahuasca, prompting Ebro to unveil some DMs he received from Drake.

“Die slower pussy,” the performer told him. “We got some sh*t for you.” While all of this might seem to have added an extra layer of negativity to an already difficult situation, Ebro doesn’t see it that way. During a recent episode of The Ebro Laura Rosenberg Show, he noted how his issues with Drake and Ak have created buzz around his new shows.

“I have to assume that Drake knows what he’s doing,” he said. “And I have to assume that he and [Ak] know that they’re helping me. […] Ak promoted my Apple show yesterday; he promoted this show yesterday. A lot, bro.” Rosenberg, on the other hand, has his doubts.

When Ebro first leaked Drake’s DMs, Rosenberg even jokingly suggested that he sue. “I would do what Drake would do,” he claimed. “It feels like a threat.”
