OVO and Oracle Red Bull Racing are dropping a new collection on May 22nd, available through the OVO website. This is another chapter in the ongoing partnership between Drake’s label and the Formula 1 team, and the collection looks like one of the stronger releases from the two so far.

The capsule is built around a dark navy base with Red Bull’s red, yellow, and white branding hitting throughout. The range includes varsity jackets, heavyweight polos, graphic tees, gloves, hats, and accessories. Everything ties back to racing culture without going too literal about it.

The standout piece is a blue varsity jacket with a collegiate-style “Racing” script across the chest, Oracle Red Bull Racing embroidery on the back, and a large OVO owl logo. It’s the kind of piece that works as a collector item as much as something you’d actually wear out.

One of the graphic tees features a large OVO wordmark across the chest with an Oracle Red Bull Racing helmet graphic and the text “22 Laps Around the Sun” underneath.

The campaign imagery uses models in matching Red Bull helmets and racing gear, which adds to the overall mood of the drop. OVO has been consistent in keeping these Red Bull releases feeling premium rather than costume-like, and this one continues that approach.

OVO x Oracle Red Bull Racing

OVO, October’s Very Own, is Drake’s label and lifestyle brand. It started primarily as a music imprint but has grown into a full streetwear label with seasonal collections, flagship stores, and high-profile collaborations.

The Oracle Red Bull Racing partnership has produced several collections over the past couple of years. Each drop has leaned into the visual language of Formula 1, mixing racing-specific details with OVO’s premium sportswear sensibility.

Also worth noting that the two collaborated back in 2025. It looks like this is a partnership that is set to continue for some time, and we’re certainly not complaining. Finally the collections tend to sell quickly given both brands’ followings.

There was some speculation that we were about to get a collaboration between Drake and Lupe Fiasco on ICEMAN. While that didn’t happen, Lupe is still blessing us with some new music. One of the immediate highlights of Drizzy’s latest project is “Shabang,” produced by Maneesh On The Beat. And while it’s unclear if that will serve as a single, Lupe Fiasco has clearly taken a liking to it and blessed us with a quick freestyle on the record. His lyrical sword remains sharp as he rides the beat with absolute ease, and addresses his banter at a recent concert, along with the blogs that ran with the false narrative surrounding it. Check it out below and let us know your thoughts in the comment section below. Did he kill it?

Release Date: May 19th, 2026
Genre: Hip-hop
Album: N/A

Quotable Lyrics
Are you a GOAT? I think
What kind of GOAT? A scape
N***as they play with my name
Not knowing they playing with fate

Wiz Khalifa once said “Ink my whole body, I don’t give a mothaf*ck.” Now, he’s returned with Machine Gun Kelly to announce that the mission has been accomplished. The two just dropped off their new single, “Everything Tatted,” which comes off of their forthcoming album, blog era boyz. The two deliver aggressive and confrontational rockstar energy for a follow-up to their single, “girl next door.” Wiz Khalifa will also be joining Machine Gun Kelly later this year on the lost americana tour, so we could imagine that their joint project will also have some solid bangers for their respective sets. Check the new single below.

Release Date: May 20th, 2026
Genre: Hip-hop
Album: blog era boyz

Quotable Lyrics
She don’t want love, she like pain more
Inked up,
Call me when I land, says she wanna link up
Rolled the tree up
Tatted everything you could think of

DJ Quik Seems To Diss Drake With Edited “ICEMAN” Cover Art https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/995608-dj-quik-seems-to-diss-drake-with-edited-iceman-cover-art Wed, 20 May 2026 21:32:44 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=995608 There have been many recreations of Drake's "ICEMAN" cover art, and DJ Quik added his two cents, showing he's not feeling the record.

The post DJ Quik Seems To Diss Drake With Edited “ICEMAN” Cover Art appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

The mixed reactions to Drake’s recent album drops continue. Everyone from fans to critics to Drizzy’s industry peers had something to say about him not only releasing his anticipated ICEMAN album, but dropping three records, including Habibti and Maid of Honour. Critics haven’t been kind, although Drake loyalists are standing ten toes down in support of one of Toronto’s most famous entertainers.

As expected, Drake delivered a few lyrical jabs to those he’s had beef with, or others he felt had abandoned him during his highly-publicized beef with Kendrick Lamar. While the Rap icon did target K. Dot on wax, Drake faced criticisms that he was answering Lamar’s takedown just a little too late. The West Coast rallied behind Kendrick at the height of his beef with Drizzy, and it looks like Compton native DJ Quik is still drawing a line in the sand.

DJ Quik Isn’t Feeling Drake’s Latest Releases

The cover of Drake’s ICEMAN shows his hand throwing up a “6” while wearing a rhinestoned glove, reminiscent of Michael Jackson. Many interpreted this as Drake acknowledging that he’s as big as one of the greatest entertainers ever to enter the industry. He’s broken records held by the late icon, with his fans comparing their careers to determine who is the greatest of all time.

Many social media users recreated the cover, and DJ Quik added his name to the mix. However, it was clear that he wasn’t feeling Drizzy’s latest, as his version removed the sparkly glove and replaced it with ears of corn. It didn’t take long for the internet to notice that Quik was hinting that he thought Drake was a “cornball” or “corny,” and critics joined in on the jeering. Still, Drake’s fans clapped back, defending the hitmaker at all costs. Check out Quik’s post below.

Fat Joe & Tony Yayo Check Max B Over Big Daddy Kane Disrespect https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/995618-fat-joe-tony-yayo-max-b-big-daddy-kane-comments Wed, 20 May 2026 21:24:04 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=995618 Fat Joe and Tony Yayo were not going to tolerate any disrespect toward Big Daddy Kane.

The post Fat Joe & Tony Yayo Check Max B Over Big Daddy Kane Disrespect appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Max B’s had one of the most interesting post-prison comebacks. He evidently leaped back in the spotlight and basked in the attention, but maybe he has a similar sense of false confidence as French Montana when he said he could go song-for-song with Kendrick Lamar.

During a recent appearance on Million Dollaz Worth Of Game, Max B shared where he believes he stands in the New York rap power ranking, placing himself below Nas, Jay-Z, and Biggie but above people like Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, and LL Cool J. Wallo took issue with Max B trying to place himself above Kane, specifically, but Max didn’t back down.

“I did 18 years like you. Kane wasn’t even on the kiosk,” Max B explained. “I love Big Daddy Kane but I ain’t seen that n***a since 1987.”

Max largely argued that he had a bigger and better catalog than Kane, if we look at his mixtapes, too. In another video, Max B reiterated his claims while trying to dispel any speculation that he has issues with Kane. But, he explained that he loved Kane up until his third album when he began doing nude photo shoots.

“That’s not wavy, baby. Sexual chocolate, I’m on your ass,” he added. Max B then shared a video of one of his recent concerts where everyone was singing along.

Fat Joe & Tony Yayo Leap To Big Daddy Kane’s Defense

Both Fat Joe and Tony Yayo made it clear that they weren’t going to stand by as Max B tried to downplay Big Daddy Kane. In a livestream, Fat Joe said that despite his support for Biggavell, he wasn’t going to allow him to disrespect a legend. “Can’t downplay the man’s contribution to hip-hop,” Fat Joe said. “Can’t disrespect Big Daddy Kane or none of the legends. You know what happens is, everyone pays their dues.” Joe added that even if these rappers aren’t incredibly visible, they continued to work and pay their bills off of hip-hop.

Tony Yayo said Max B “got to stay humble” before listing off Kane’s accomplishments. “Yo, Big Daddy Kane is what hip-hop is,” he said. “Big Daddy Kane has seven certified albums, Big Daddy Kane cracked Madonna, and I like what Max B and French doing, no disrespect to them, but you can’t do that.” How do you feel about Max B’s comments? Let us know in the comments below.

Rihanna’s Puma Deal Is Done And She’s Already Been Spotted Wearing Nike https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/995619-rihannas-puma-deal-is-done-sneaker-news Wed, 20 May 2026 21:22:10 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=995619 Rihanna's Puma partnership has ended, and recent sightings of her wearing the Jacquemus x Nike Moon Shoe have sparked speculation

The post Rihanna’s Puma Deal Is Done And She’s Already Been Spotted Wearing Nike appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Rihanna’s partnership with Puma has reportedly come to an end. The two sides did not renew their three-year contract, and recent photos of Rihanna suggest the split is real. She has been spotted wearing Nike footwear on multiple occasions, which has people talking about what comes next.

Most recently she was seen wearing the Jacquemus x Nike Moon Shoe. That’s not a casual choice. The Jacquemus Nike collab is one of the more fashion-forward Nike releases in recent memory, and it fits Rihanna’s aesthetic well. Wearing it publicly while her Puma deal is reportedly dead sends a pretty clear signal.

The obvious question is whether Nike is next. Rihanna has the profile, the business track record with Fenty, and the cultural reach to make a Nike partnership work on a serious level. A dedicated sub-brand or signature line under Nike would make sense given where she sits right now as both an artist and entrepreneur.

The wrinkle in all of this is A$AP Rocky. He and Rihanna are together, and Rocky is actively collaborating with Puma on the Mostro line. Whether that complicates a potential Nike conversation on Rihanna’s end is hard to know from the outside. But it does make the situation more interesting.

Nothing is confirmed yet. For now, Rihanna is wearing Nike, her Puma deal is done, and the speculation is wide open.

Rihanna Wears Nike Moon Shoe

The Jacquemus x Nike Moon Shoe is a collaboration between Nike and French designer Simon Porte Jacquemus. The shoe is a low-profile runner with a clean, minimal aesthetic that leans more fashion than performance.

Also it features a simple leather and mesh upper in neutral tones, a slim midsole, and understated branding throughout. The overall look is quiet and refined, which makes it a go-to for people who want a Nike product without it reading too overtly athletic.

Rihanna was also spotted in a grey hoodie and bike shorts with clean white Nike sneakers, continuing a pattern of reaching for Nike over other brands. Could we really see Rihanna sign with Nike next?

Future Shows Love To Drake As “ICEMAN” Collaboration Squashes Beef https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/995613-future-drake-iceman-tweet Wed, 20 May 2026 20:43:56 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=995613 Back by popular demand.

The post Future Shows Love To Drake As “ICEMAN” Collaboration Squashes Beef appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Drake’s been on a streak of vengeance with the release of ICEMAN. Frankly, with the amount of beef that spilled over from his battle with Kendrick Lamar, it’s hard to keep a mental list of everyone that he’s been feuding with. But the reality is he’s feuding with everyone because of their direct (or in DJ Khaled’s case, indirect) role in the beef. But out of everyone that he’s had issues with, he somehow managed to make peace with the guy who helped spearhead this whole thing.

Future comes through clutch on their new collaboration, “Ran To Atlanta,” a song title that seemingly references Kendrick Lamar’s third verse on “Not Like Us.” The single, featuring a stellar verse from Molly Santana, is poised to make a splash on the Hot 100 next week, though it might not top the charts. It’ll come close and that’s certainly enough to excuse whatever friction existed between them before things got tense in hip-hop.

The question ultimately is why they would be cool again after things fell apart. Drake fans were pretty adamant that they didn’t want to see anyone switching sides when ICEMAN rolled around, and Future was definitely among those whom they weren’t willing to forgive as easily. But as Drake suggested on the song, the link-up was due to popular demand.

Future reiterated that claim on X earlier today, interpolating the lyrics to fit his perspective. “Me and ICEMAN back by popular demand,” he wrote.

X users clearly weren’t going to let this slide, despite their guy being the one to confirm that he’s back on good terms with Future. “Made two whole albums beefing wit a n***a just to link back up w him 2 years later is some straight hoe shit no matter how n***as try to dress it up!” one user wrote. 

Another one added, “We still keepin tabs on you n***a.”

“We still ain’t forget how you switched up on him, we not giving you that #1,” another fan said. 

Either way, “Ran To Atlanta” is currently on pace to debut at #2. We’ll keep you posted on the charts. Could this be another #1 for Future, or will it fall short of hitting the top? Let us know your predictions in the comments section.

Lord Jamar Pushes Back Against Stove God Cooks Label Narrative: “He’s Not In A Bad Deal” https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/995606-lord-jamar-stove-god-cooks-babygrande-deal Wed, 20 May 2026 20:33:37 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=995606 Lord Jamar shares his perspective.

The post Lord Jamar Pushes Back Against Stove God Cooks Label Narrative: “He’s Not In A Bad Deal” appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
The one rapper who probably has the most anticipated release of the year is Stove God Cooks. While it’s been nearly five years since Reasonable Drought, fans have anticipated his next release. A few singles have emerged, and the pending Swizz Beatz-produced album is set to arrive in the near future. However, fans assumed that label issues prevented it from being released once SGC called on Jay-Z to get him out of his deal.

As reported by Complex, Lord Jamar, who previously managed the “Run It Up” rapper, explained in a recent interview with Quiet Part Out Loud that the Babygrande Records signee isn’t in an exploitative deal by any means. Jamar confirmed that he had a role in orchestrating the deal when he once managed the rapper. “I have knowledge of the deal. He’s not in a bad deal
 he even said he’s not in a bad deal. He said he’s in a deal he doesn’t want to be in,” Jamar said, adding that Stove God simply didn’t want to work with him or the owner of Babygrande Records.

“He could have been out of this deal if he would have just delivered his projects,” Jamar said. “But he took the money, took the advance, and
 didn’t deliver.”

What Did Lord Jamar Say About Stove God Cooks Deal?

Jamar suggested that Stove God has been unfairly portraying Chuck Wilson of Babygrande Records as the bad guy in the situation while also trying to pin some of the blame of his record deal on Jamar. However, Lord Jamar said that he played a major role in Stove God Cook’s career, especially as it relates to linking him up with Busta Rhymes and Roc Marciano, who worked on Reasonable Drought. Furthermore, Jamar said he also helped with Stove God Cook’s rebranding.

Regardless of the strain on their relationship, Lord Jamar made it clear that he still believes in Stove God Cook’s talent as an artist. Check out the full clip above and sound off with your thoughts in the comment section below.

Kim Kardashian’s Skims Company Shipment Had Cocaine Worth Millions https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/995603-kim-kardashians-skims-company-shipment-had-cocaine-worth-millions Wed, 20 May 2026 20:23:39 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=995603 Skims, the company founded by Kim Kardashian, is as the center of a bust after a routine inspection uncovered drug trafficking.

The post Kim Kardashian’s Skims Company Shipment Had Cocaine Worth Millions appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

A shipment of Skims underwear and apparel traveling through the United Kingdom became the center of a major international drug trafficking case after authorities discovered millions of dollars worth of cocaine hidden inside a modified cargo trailer.

USA Today reports that British officials say the operation unraveled during a routine inspection at the Port of Harwich in Essex, where Border Force officers stopped a truck arriving from the Netherlands in September 2025. Inside the vehicle were 28 pallets of merchandise tied to Kim Kardashian’s shapewear and clothing brand, Skims. The products themselves were legitimate, investigators said. The alleged criminal activity was concealed elsewhere.

According to the U.K.’s National Crime Agency (NCA), officers became suspicious after X-ray scans revealed unusual structural inconsistencies inside the rear doors of the trailer. A deeper search uncovered a hidden compartment packed with 90 individually wrapped bundles of cocaine, each weighing roughly two pounds.

Skims Denies Any Involvement

Authorities estimate the drugs carried a street value of approximately 7.2 million euros, or about $8.4 million USD. Further, the driver, identified as 40-year-old Jakub Jan Konkel of northern Poland, was later convicted in connection with the smuggling scheme. Court proceedings revealed investigators uncovered GPS and travel data pointing to an undocumented 16-minute stop made during the trip, a detail prosecutors argued played a key role in how the drugs were loaded into the vehicle.

Officials believe the cocaine was inserted into the trailer during that brief stop with the coordination of an organized trafficking network operating across European freight routes.

Konkel initially denied involvement in the operation before later admitting he had agreed to transport the narcotics for payment. Authorities said he was promised 4,500 euros in exchange for moving the shipment across borders. A judge at Chelmsford Crown Court ultimately sentenced him to 13 years and six months in prison.

Skims issued a statement to USA Today regarding the controversy: “SKIMS is aware of the recent news involving a shipment with our products. We want to be absolutely clear: SKIMS had no knowledge whatsoever about this criminal activity. We had no connection to the smuggling operation, the driver, or the truck.”

Hotboii Sentenced Following Probation Violation https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/995595-hotboii-sentenced-jail-probation-violation Wed, 20 May 2026 19:38:25 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=995595 Rapper Hotboii is once again in hot water with the law, years after he faced a RICO case and spent two years behind bars.

The post Hotboii Sentenced Following Probation Violation appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
It looks as if Hotboii will be returning to jail five years after facing a RICO case. The Florida rapper has been entangled in legal drama for some time, with his most serious case dating back to 2021. At the time, Hotboii was hit with several federal charges, including allegations of racketeering and gang activity. Authorities held the rapper in jail for two years as his legal team fought his case, but he was able to plead to a lesser charge of conspiracy.

Now, XXL has released an update regarding Hotboii’s most recent legal troubles after being sentenced to six months in jail. The Orlando rapper, whose real name is Javarri Walker, was taken into custody Monday (May 18) and booked into Orange County Jail. His attorney, Lyle Mazin, clarified to XXL that the case does not involve any new criminal accusations. Instead, the sentencing stems from prior probation issues connected to three separate violations filed this year.

Hotboii Was On Probation For Five Years

According to Mazin, the defense was able to reduce those violations down to a single count during Monday’s hearing. The attorney added that Hotboii may serve closer to five months with standard time-off credit for good behavior.

The latest development comes less than a year after the rapper was released in September 2024 and placed under supervised probation for five years. Since regaining his freedom, Hotboii has continued to face legal scrutiny, including several arrests throughout 2025.

One of the more serious incidents reportedly happened in Miami last summer, when police arrested him on allegations involving a firearm and trespassing on school property while armed. Hotboii has worked with several high-profile artists, including Lil Uzi Vert, Kodak Black, Pooh Shiesty, Plies, Polo G, and more. His past stints in jail haven’t paused his career, so he’s expected to bounce back without a problem.
