Offset has been through a lot over the past couple of years. His breakup with Cardi B was well-publicized, all while his alleged struggles with gambling addiction have also been discussed. Moreover, he was shot during an altercation with Lil Tjay, which has also led to speculation about his personal life.

In the midst of this, we haven’t gotten a whole lot of new music from the rapper. However, that is about to change this Friday as Offset is planning to come out with his single, “Something I Need.”

This week, Offset is going into promo mode, and he has opted for a unique strategy. Below, you can see that he has started a new hotline for a faux radio show called “NEED FM.” If you call 470-742-6949, you can get free relationship advice from the artist.

Offset Opens “NEED FM”

It seems like a fun idea, albeit not the first time an artist has opened up phone lines for a piece of promotional material. Whatever the case may be, the prospect of new Offset music should be exciting for a lot of rap fans.

In fact, Offset is seemingly back in the studio with Quavo. Quavo recently revealed that Migos is coming back for one more album and one more tour. At the time of Takeoff’s death, Quavo and Set were not on speaking terms. Now, things have changed, and it appears as though we will hear all three on the same tracks again. Takeoff’s verses are likely going to be older ones that are being taken out of the vault.

Let us know your expectations for the new Offset song in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Coi Leray Describes Fist Fight With Latto’s Sister Brooklyn https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1009948-coi-leray-fist-fight-latto-brooklyn Wed, 16 Sep 2026 17:41:08 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1009948 After getting dissed on "Put It on Da Floor," Coi Leray claims she got into a physical altercation with Latto's sister.

The post Coi Leray Describes Fist Fight With Latto’s Sister Brooklyn appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Coi Leray and Latto are not on good terms these days. If you remember, Latto had a bar for Leray on “Put It on Da Floor,” rapping, “Smokin’ on that gas, blunt big as Coi Leray.”

This subsequently led to a feud between the two artists, with all sorts of rumors circulating about their relationship. For instance, there was a narrative that the two had gotten into a fist fight, and that Latto was the winner.

However, Coi Leray has the real story. While appearing on The Jason Lee Show for BET, Leray made it clear that her fist fight was actually with Latto’s sister Brooklyn. Things got out of hand, and it eventually came to blows.

“I don’t want to be f**ked with,” Leray said. “I don’t want nobody to say my name. Don’t use my name for clickbait and for clout and to create rap beef that I’m not in. […] One thing led to another. Me and [Latto’s sister] Brooklyn fought behind the scenes. It was a whole thing. A whole fistfight. I done refractured my knee and everything…She was defending her sister. Me, I was defending myself.”

Coi Leray On The Jason Lee Show

Later in the interview, Leray revealed that things between her and Latto are all good now. When Latto was pregnant, Leray reached out, and they were able to squash things on a permanent basis.

Whether or not Leray and Latto will collaborate in the future still remains to be seen. However, Leray did reveal that she is open to the possibility.

In the meantime, you can watch the full interview with Coi Leray, below.

Drake Gives Fans A Look Inside His Luxury Collection https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1009943-drakes-jewelry-and-watch-collection-music-news Wed, 16 Sep 2026 16:54:24 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1009943 Drake showed off his extremely rare and exclusive jewelry, and watches collection in his latest FOMO short film.

The post Drake Gives Fans A Look Inside His Luxury Collection appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

Drake dropped a new short film called “FOMO,” and it came with an unexpected bonus for fans: a full tour of his personal collection. Partway through the nearly hour-long video, he steps into his closet and starts pulling out pieces most people will never see in person.

A diamond-covered pendant shaped like the enchanted clock from Beauty and the Beast stood out immediately. He also pulled out a one-off Louis Vuitton bag carrying old Certified Lover Boy branding, along with several chains and rings from what looked like a private display case built specifically to store his collection.

Watches got their own spotlight too, with Drake casually holding up a few pieces for the camera without naming brands or pricing outright. That low-key presentation made the whole segment feel more like a personal walkthrough than a scripted flex.

The cars got their moment as well. Drake walked the camera past his garage, which included the pink Range Rover that once belonged to Cam’ron. Seeing that specific vehicle pop up got just as much attention online as anything pulled from the jewelry case.

The film didn’t stay up for long after it dropped, but that hasn’t stopped fans from sharing clips and screenshots from the closet reveal all over social media in the days since.

Drake’s Jewelry and Watch Collection

Drake’s taste definitely leans toward pieces with a story attached, not just expensive ones. Pairing something as playful as a Disney-inspired pendant with a car tied directly to Cam’ron’s own history says a lot about how he approaches collecting overall. It’s less about flexing size and more about the meaning behind each piece.

This kind of reveal fits a broader pattern too. He’s used personal projects before to casually show off parts of his world without turning it into a full announcement or press moment. Reveals like that tend to spread fast regardless, especially when something as recognizable as Cam’ron’s old Range Rover shows up completely unannounced.

Even with the video getting pulled shortly after release, “FOMO” gave fans a rare look at just how much history and personality sits inside Drake’s personal collection.

The post Drake Says “Pray For Gaza” In FOMO Song Snippet appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Drake’s “FOMO” short film was officially released on Tuesday, and it has proven to be the success he was hoping for. Tens of thousands of fans tuned in live for what was a fairly interesting spectacle.

There were numerous new song snippets. In fact, we heard songs from the likes of Don Toliver and Yeat. This has fans hyped for the future, especially since it appears as though another album could very well be on the horizon. Drake did not provide confirmation, although the existence of new music is certainly a clue.

One of the song snippets has begun to go viral on social media as Drake delivered a rare political statement. As you will hear below, he said: “Pray for Gaza.” It is an acknowledgement of the situation involving Israel and Palestine, and how Gazans are being attacked.

Drake had previously mentioned Palestine on “Make Them Pay” as he addressed DJ Khaled.

Drake Makes A Statement

Whether or not this is going to be a continued theme for Drake remains to be seen. In the past, he has been criticized for his reluctance to speak on political issues in his music. However, it appears as though Palestine has inspired him to change that.

Going forward, Drake seems to be preparing a tour for his fans. After dropping three albums’ worth of new content, it only makes sense that Drizzy would want to take his music on the road. Fans have been yearning for some shows, and now could be the right time to jet set across the world.

The post Drake Shows Off Cam’ron’s Pink Range Rover In “FOMO” Short Film appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Drake showed off Cam’ron’s pink 2003 Range Rover L322 HSE during his “FOMO” short film. The vehicle is the same one Cam’ron customized in pink back in 2003. It became one of the most recognizable cars in hip-hop after showing up in a couple of his music videos.

Cam’ron had the Range Rover repainted and re-trimmed in pink shortly after buying it new. He only kept the car for about a year before deciding to sell it, reportedly because it drew too much attention wherever he drove it. From there, the car changed hands a few times over the years.

It’s not entirely clear how the Range Rover ended up with Drake, but it’s now part of his personal collection. Seeing it resurface this way after changing owners multiple times makes for an interesting piece of hip-hop car history.

The Range Rover appeared in “FOMO” alongside several other standout pieces from Drake’s collection. That included a handful of rare and high-end cars, showing just how deep his taste in collecting actually runs.

Drake Flexes Cam’ron’s Pink Range Rover

Drake has built a reputation for collecting pieces tied directly to hip-hop history. Owning Cam’ron’s actual pink Range Rover fits right into that pattern. It’s less about the car itself and more about what it represents.

That Range Rover became closely associated with a specific look and era in rap. Cam’ron didn’t just drive it, he turned it into part of his whole image at the time. Even now years later, fans still associate it.

Drake picking up a car like this shows how much these kinds of pieces have come to matter within hip-hop circles. It’s a reminder that some of these items hold more value than their actual price tag would actually say.

For fans, seeing this car resurface adds a fun full-circle moment to its story. Drake loves using subliminal messages and hidden easter eggs, whether it’s in his music or visual projects, and this adds to the list. Whatever he does next, people will be watching.

Lil Durk’s Racketeering Charges, Explained https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1009801-lil-durk-racketeering-charges-explained Wed, 16 Sep 2026 16:13:43 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1009801 Here's everything you need to know about Lil Durk's upcoming trial.

The post Lil Durk’s Racketeering Charges, Explained appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
It’s a new day for Lil Durk as he beat his murder-for-hire case, but there are still ways to go before he’s released from federal custody. The rapper, whose legal name is Durk Banks, faces a separate trial centered on a broader allegation of murder in aid of racketeering, commonly known as a VICAR charge. Federal prosecutors allege that he led a criminal organization that used money, violence, and the opportunities associated with his music career to facilitate criminal activity.

At the center of that case is what prosecutors call the “Banks Gang Enterprise.” The government alleges that the organization grew out of Only The Family (OTF), the collective the Chicago rapper founded, and that some OTF members and associates became part of a criminal operation that extended beyond music. The allegations include violence, drug trafficking, robbery, witness intimidation, and other criminal activity. Most importantly, prosecutors allege that Durk used money and opportunities available through OTF to reward members and maintain their standing in the enterprise.

What The Government Is Alleging Against Lil Durk

The indictment describes Durk as someone who allegedly funded parts of that operation, including providing money, cars, and travel. It also alleges that members could receive financial rewards, jewelry, music opportunities, and placements in Durk or OTF’s videos for acts carried out on behalf of the group.

The indictment points to several incidents as examples of how the alleged enterprise operated. In one alleged incident in Atlanta in February 2019, prosecutors say the rapper and others attempted to kill a man following a dispute over a stolen vehicle. After the November 2020 killing of King Von, whom prosecutors identify as a member of the alleged enterprise and a close friend of the rapper, the indictment says Durk and others discussed retaliating against people they believed were responsible.

Prosecutors then connect that alleged retaliation to two separate incidents involving Quando Rondo, the rapper who was the intended target of the 2022 Los Angeles shooting. They connect that alleged retaliation to an attempted killing of Rondo in Georgia in May 2021, as well as a separate killing in Chicago in January 2022.

Lil Durk is not charged with those additional killings as separate murder counts. Instead, those incidents are included in the indictment as alleged examples of the activity surrounding the Banks Gang Enterprise.

Racketeering Allegations & The Los Angeles Shooting

Prosecutors allege that Durk and others wanted Rondo killed and that the attack was connected to the alleged enterprise’s effort to retaliate for King Von’s death. The attempted killing ultimately resulted in the death of Rondo’s cousin Saviay’a “Lul Pab” Robinson.

The first trial centered on the alleged murder-for-hire and stalking scheme surrounding the Los Angeles shooting. The jury ultimately found Durk not guilty on all five charges.

The government’s main racketeering count alleges that Robinson was killed as part of the Banks Gang Enterprise, with the violence intended to help Durk and the other defendants maintain or strengthen their standing within the group, or in exchange for financial benefits. There is also a separate racketeering-conspiracy charge, along with a firearm-related count tied to the alleged Los Angeles violence.

Why Durk Is Facing Another Trial After Being Acquitted

The fact that the Los Angeles shooting appears in both cases doesn’t automatically mean the two prosecutions are legally identical. The murder-for-hire case centered on the alleged scheme to have Rondo killed, including the use of interstate travel and communications, which resulted in Robinson’s death. The racketeering case places that same event within a set of alleged activity involving Atlanta, Georgia, Chicago, and Los Angeles.

That distinction became important before the first trial even began. Prosecutors attempted to add the racketeering allegations to the existing case, but U.S. District Judge Michael W. Fitzgerald ultimately separated the new charges and scheduled them for a second trial. As LA Magazine‘s Taylor Parise reported, Fitzgerald questioned why prosecutors had waited so long to bring the new allegation and described the situation as the “Chicago tail” wagging the “Los Angeles dog.”

The result is that Durk’s next trial is not another trial over the same five charges. Ultimately, it centers on a separate set of racketeering allegations concerning the alleged Banks Gang Enterprise, with Robinson’s death included as one of the alleged acts connected to that organization.

What The Government Has To Prove

For the racketeering murder charge, the government has to prove more than that Durk was connected to the people involved in the Los Angeles shooting. As LA Magazine explains, prosecutors must establish that Robinson was murdered under California law and that the killing was carried out for the purpose of helping Durk and his alleged co-defendants gain entrance to, maintain, or increase their positions in the Banks Gang Enterprise, or in exchange for economic value from the enterprise. The case also includes a racketeering-conspiracy charge, plus a separate federal firearm charge tied to the alleged Los Angeles violence.

Durk’s September acquittal does not resolve those separate allegations, which is why he remains in custody ahead of the October 5 trial. His former co-defendants Deandre Wilson and David Lindsey, meanwhile, were convicted of three stalking-related charges in the first trial but acquitted of the two murder-for-hire charges.

Drake delivered his “FOMO” short film on Tuesday night, and it has been the talk of the hip-hop world. This should not be a big surprise, especially when you consider how Drizzy is the biggest rapper in the world.

Fans are always eager to either praise or critique whatever he does. That was especially true as it pertains to this livestream. Having said that, the artist did come through with some impressive visuals, and the song snippets also left us intrigued and wanting more.

Throughout the short film, there were some interesting segments. One of those segments took place near the beginning, and it featured the artist’s mom, Sandra Graham. In fact, there was one scene in which it was revealed that she now has a tattoo on her wrist that says “ICEMOM.” Of course, this is a refence to Drake’s latest album, ICEMAN.

Sandra Graham Is The ICEMOM

Drake has always shown love to his mother. In fact, a younger version of her is featured on the cover art for MAID OF HONOUR. Throughout the short film segment, Sandra can be seen alongside some of her longtime friends. They discuss memories about their lifestyles and drifting apart, only to come back together throughout the years.

It was a sweet moment during the livestream, and there is absolutely nothing to critique on that front. Unless, of course, you are the ultimate cynical hater.

Unfortunately, this new short film did not come with an album announcement. While Drake has made it clear that a tour is coming, we are still unsure of how his new music will eventually be packaged.

With songs with Don Toliver and Yeat in the vault, we can only imagine what else the megastar has in store.

Drake came through with his “FOMO” livestream on Tuesday night, and as advertised, it was a short film. Throughout the film, we got numerous new song snippets, with features from Don Toliver and even Yeat.

Overall, it was an impressive display from Drake. He delivered visuals for some underrated MAID OF HONOUR tracks, and he also collaborated with a ton of famous friends. The cameo list is pretty extensive, and you couldn’t help but point at your screen like Leonardo DiCaprio every time they appeared.

On the music side, people like Ella Langley, Sexyy Red, Stunna Sandy, and even Don Toliver were in the video. Meanwhile, content creators like Lena The Plug, BenDaDonnn, and even goth baddie Pinkchyu made appearances. We also got to see Kevin Durant and an extended segment with Drake’s mother, Sandra Graham.

Full list of cameos:

  • Sexyy Red

  • Lena The Plug
  • Kevin Durant
  • BenDaDonnn
  • Don Toliver
  • Pinkchyu
  • The People Gallery
  • Loe Shimmy
  • His accountant
  • Ella Langley

With all of the new music that was shown off, it is easy to see why fans believe an album is coming. Drake has confirmed that he is going on tour, but a new album is still a big unknown. At least for right now.

The song with Don Toliver is of particular interest to fans given just how big the hooks sound on it. Both Toliver and Drizzy put in dope performances, and the song sounds like it has number one hit potential.

Meanwhile, the “Choosin Texas” remix is an R&B rework of the song, and we are certainly intrigued to hear a whole lot more.
