Cardi B officially concluded her Little Miss Drama tour after performing back-to-back sold-out shows at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, last weekend. All in all, the trek sold 453,000 tickets and grossed over $70 million across 35 dates, according to XXL. Cardi celebrated the feat in a video message to her fans on Instagram.

She kicked off the post by admitting that she was “drunk” but wanted to tell fans how she “really, really feels.” “I just want to say thank you to everybody who came out to the Little Miss Drama tour and was a part of the Little Miss Drama tour,” she continued, mentioning her production team, glam team, wardrobe team, choreographers, and more. “Most of all, of course, I want to say thank you to my fans, thank you to Bardi Gang. Thank you to everybody who came and made this moment so special for me,” she concluded.

Cardi embarked on the Little Miss Drama tour back in February, just months after releasing her second studio album, Am I The Drama? On the road, she brought out several notable guests, including Megan Thee Stallion, Meek Mill, Fetty Wap, Lil’ Kim, T.I., Missy Elliott, and more.

Cardi B’s Atlanta Concerts

The tour’s conclusion came with additional drama, as Cardi threatened to cancel her final show at State Farm Arena in Atlanta. She accused the venue’s employees of being “disrespectful” to her team. “I’m pissed off right now, I’m not going to lie. This arena been playing a lot of f—ng games with me. This will be the last time I’m ever in this b—h,” she said on stage. “Next time, I’m having my concert in the parking lot, b—h! I’m tired of y’all playing with me. This is y’all f—ng second time. I still f—k with the Atlanta Hawks though.”

AllStar JR Exposes Fiery DMs With NBA Ben10 After Houston Shooting https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/990779-allstar-jr-dms-nba-ben10 Tue, 21 Apr 2026 14:24:08 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=990779 NBA Ben10 is still recovering after being shot multiple times after an alleged altercation at a Houston restaurant earlier this month.

Earlier this week, NBA Ben10 was shot multiple times at a Houston restaurant. Reportedly, the shooting took place shortly after two men tried to steal another man’s chains. This allegedly resulted in an altercation, and eventually, one of the men pulled out a gun. Fortunately, NBA Ben10 appears to be well on his way to recovery. One other man was injured besides him.

Detroit artist AllStar JR was quick to weigh in on the ordeal, insinuating that he allegedly had something to do with the shooting. He shared an Instagram post featuring various photos of himself at a jewelry store, adding a cryptic caption. “Had To Shoot To The D And Get New Ice Cuz My Mans Ben 10 Took Some Of My Stuff To The Hospital With Him 😕🤨,” he wrote, as seen in a screenshot shared by DJ Akademiks. “#JRClosedTheElevatorOnRon #OG3LeftThemN****s #AllThatPlaying.”

He didn’t stop there, however. AllStar JR went on to challenge his supporters to lie on the floor as if they had just been shot and film it. He offered the winner $20K.

AllStar JR Taunts NBA Ben10

Now, he’s taken to social media to unveil a few alleged DMs that he and NBA Ben10 exchanged shortly after the shooting. In the messages, he appears to mock his foe for being “full of bullets.”

“U wipe that spit off yo p***y a** face ?,” he also appeared to ask. “How it feel that everybody left your bum b*tch a** to die ? N**** u ain’t cut u a bum a** do boy.”

Shortly after the shooting, Lieutenant R. Wilkins provided the public with an update, indicating that an investigation was underway. According to him, footage captured of the harrowing incident might be what ultimately helps authorities make an arrest.

“The investigation is just now starting,” he explained at the time. “But investigators are going to get over here and try to figure out how it occurred. We got some folks on the scene who are talking to us. We got some good video.”

Young Thug Teases Feature On Drake’s “ICEMAN” https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/990755-young-thug-drake-iceman-feature Tue, 21 Apr 2026 13:57:43 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=990755 Drake is dropping "ICEMAN" soon, and with a new sculpture going up in Toronto, Young Thug seems to have a scoop.

The post Young Thug Teases Feature On Drake’s “ICEMAN” appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Drake’s new album, ICEMAN, is the most anticipated release of 2026, and the fans cannot wait to dive in. On Monday, the artist came through with a new ice sculpture in Toronto. Underneath the ice is the release date for the album. This has activated his fanbase, with many Torontonians coming to the sculpture with blow torches and pick axes. It’s been quite the sight to behold, and fans are eager to see how this all plays out.

With that in mind, it should come as absolutely no surprise that other artists are looking to show their excitement and support. There is a lot of speculation about who is on the album and who will deliver the best verse. One artist who has come up is none other than Young Thug.

Drake was a huge supporter of Thug’s while he was in jail. One can imagine Thugger would be one of the first artists Drizzy calls for a verse. On Monday, Thug gave a bit of credence to this theory with a low-key post on his Instagram story.

As you can see, the artist reposted the ice structure. Immediately, this makes us think that Thug might just be on the album.

There are plenty of artists who could be on ICEMAN. Of course, PartyNextDoor, Young Thug, Lil Baby, Future, and even Naomi Sharon are all names we could see being featured. For now, however, Drake is looking to keep things under wraps. He wants his fans to be surprised, and we don’t blame him.

ICEMAN is going to be an event album in every sense of the word. J. Cole’s The Fall-Off certainly fit that bill a couple of months ago. Now, it is Drake’s turn to put in his submission for an album of the year contender.

If the rumors are true, this is an album that will be rap-heavy. It is Drake’s first solo album since For All The Dogs, and the fans are hoping for some sort of return to form.

D4vd Pleads Not Guilty To Murder Of Celeste Rivas https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/990749-d4vd-pleads-not-guilty-murder-celeste-rivas Tue, 21 Apr 2026 13:50:15 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=990749 Due to “special circumstances” surrounding the charges, D4vd could face the death penalty for allegedly killing Celeste Rivas.

D4vd pleaded not guilty to the murder of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas and other charges related to his recent arrest in a courtroom on Monday. His legal team also requested a preliminary hearing within the next 10 days, according to TMZ.

Police arrested D4vd, last Thursday, over seven months after discovering Rivas’ remains in the trunk of his Tesla. Prosecutors announced the charges against him on Monday. He’s accused of first-degree murder, continuous sexual abuse of a child under the age of 14, and unlawful mutilation of human remains.

Read More: Lamar Odom & Khloé Kardashian’s Chaotic Relationship Timeline

“Celeste was just a child, under 14 years old, when David Burke allegedly engaged in repeated lewd and lascivious sexual relations with her,” District Attorney Nathan J. Hochman said in a press release. “But Burke’s actions did not allegedly stop there. When she threatened to expose his criminal conduct and devastate his musical career, Burke allegedly murdered her, cut up her body and stuffed her body in two bags that were placed in the front trunk of his car. There the dismembered body sat for over four months decomposing until it was found at a tow yard on Sept. 8, 2025. This horrific and gruesome murder committed by the charged sexual predator is shocking and appalling. To Celeste’s loved ones, we will get the justice you seek and deserve.”

During a press conference on Monday, LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell explained why the arrest took seven months to put together. “My duty is not to fuel speculation,” he said. “It’s to deliver justice, and that requires patience and discipline on everybody’s part. This investigation was driven by a single purpose — to secure justice for Celeste Rivas and for those who loved her.”

Will D4vd Face The Death Penalty?

There are “special circumstances” surrounding the charges that will make D4vd eligible for either the death penalty or a life sentence without parole. They include the “lying in wait” nature of the alleged killing, that it was done for financial gain, and that Rivas is considered a witness to the lewd acts charge. Prosecutors will decide whether they will seek the death penalty or a life sentence without parole at a later date.

Earlier this month, Pooh Shiesty and multiple others were arrested in connection with the alleged kidnapping and robbery of Gucci Mane. They’re accused of carrying out an “armed takeover” of a recording studio in an effort to get out of a 1017 contract. The Memphis rapper’s father, Lontrell Williams Sr., was among those taken into custody.

Shortly after, Williams Sr. was granted a $250K bond with a $25K cash deposit. Prosecutors, however, were quick to push back. They recently moved to have his bond revoked, alleging that he could be a flight risk. This week, Williams submitted a brief arguing why he believes he should be granted bond, per Complex.

According to him, the government is unable to provide “clear and convincing evidence” that proves it’s necessary to keep him in jail. In his brief, he also points out the fact that Magistrate Judge Annie T. Christoff ruled in favor of his release while taking his “history and characteristics” into consideration.

As for Gucci Mane, several former fans have turned on him since Pooh Shiesty’s arrest, with many labeling him an alleged snitch. He released a song called “Crash Dummy” amid his peers’ legal drama, in which he references the alleged kidnapping.

“Tell the truth, you went out like a real crash dummy, and after all that, boy, you still signed to me,” he raps. “I walk in the room, you can feel the pressure building / N***a dapped me up there, whole time they plotting against me.”

The track earned reactions from Uncle Murda, Boosie Badazz, 50 Cent, Ralo, and many more. 6ix9ine even hopped online to weigh in amid the chatter.

“WHY YOU ALWAYS GOT TO SAY SOMETHING???” he captioned a fiery Instagram post. “IM THE ONLYYYYYYY PERSON THAT CAN SPEA ON THIS EVERYYYYYTIMMMMMME. YALL BLACKBALLED ME AND TRY TO TAKE FOOD FROM MY FAMILYS MOUTH WHEN YALL KNEW ALL THE FACTSSS!!!”

The post FaZe Banks Flexes New Richard Mille Ferrari Watch Worth Millions appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
FaZe Banks, the former FaZe Clan owner, just shared his newest purchase on Instagram. He showed off a Richard Mille RM UP-01 Ferrari on his wrist. The watch carries a price tag of around $2 million.

Banks posted the watch on his Instagram story alongside the caption: “Call me Von the way I spank n*ggas.” The post generated immediate attention online. For Banks, the flex was straightforward and to the point.

The Richard Mille RM UP-01 Ferrari is a limited edition of just 150 pieces. Furthermore, at just 1.75 millimetres thick, it held the title of the world’s thinnest mechanical watch upon release in 2022. It remains one of the most technically impressive watches ever made.

Additionally, Richard Mille and Ferrari joined forces in 2021 to create the piece, driven by a shared obsession with precision, reliability, and innovation. The collaboration took years of development and thousands of hours of testing to complete.

As for Banks himself, he has remained a visible figure in the cultural space since leaving FaZe. He continues to move publicly and loudly. A $2 million Richard Mille on the wrist is consistent with that energy.

The watch has drawn plenty of reactions online. Most people simply noted the price. Others focused on the caption. Either way, Banks made sure everyone saw it.

FaZe Banks Richard Mille Watch

The Richard Mille RM UP-01 Ferrari is one of the most technically remarkable watches ever produced. The case measures 51 x 39 mm and is constructed from grade 5 titanium, encasing a manual winding movement that is only 1.18 mm thick.

The dial is minimal with hours and minutes only with a silver face and the Ferrari Prancing Horse logo on the bezel. The black rubber strap keeps the look clean against the ultra-flat titanium case.

Retail pricing came in at roughly $2 million, with secondary market prices currently sitting between $1.5 and $1.9 million. It is as understated as a $2 million watch can be.

Police Shut Down Drake’s “ICEMAN” Structure After Fans Built A Campfire On Top Of It https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/990746-drake-iceman-structure-toronto-police Tue, 21 Apr 2026 13:16:16 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=990746 Drake has a new "ICEMAN" installation in the middle of downtown Toronto, and fans are doing everything they can to melt it.

The post Police Shut Down Drake’s “ICEMAN” Structure After Fans Built A Campfire On Top Of It appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Yesterday, Drake came through with his best ICEMAN teaser to date. In downtown Toronto, a massive ice sculpture was erected, with Drizzy making the proclamation that beneath the ice was the release date for his new album.

As you can imagine, fans flocked to the scene of the sculpture, where they immediately tried to speed up the melting process. Fans brought lighters and cans of hairspray, while others brought mallets and pick axes. Videos from the sculpture began going viral on social media, and it looked like a pretty great time.

Last night, some fans managed to pull off a campfire on top of the sculpture. They brought some coals and were able to get the fire going. Unfortunately, it didn’t seem to make much of a dent in the sculpture. After all, there are some massive blocks of ice here.

Toronto police had initially said that fans would not be able to touch the structure. As more fans showed up, the rules became a bit more bendable. However, once the campfire went up, the police had no choice but to intervene and shut things down for the time being.

Fans Excited About Drake’s ICEMAN

At this time, Drake’s ICEMAN sculpture is still up. It’s not going away until it melts. However, don’t expect fans to be close to it. In the morning, there is a chance that the police will reopen it, but with some stipulations. They don’t want people to get rowdy and cause a public safety issue. That is the last thing anyone wants from this.

Regardless, this just shows that Drake is engaged with his fans right now. The fanbase is excited to find out the release date, and this sculpture is a new level of interactivity that we haven’t seen in a very long time.

While the rollout for ICEMAN had been incredibly stagnant, it is clear that this project is now on the cusp of being released. In fact, some believe it could come as soon as next Friday.

Whatever the case may be, this is an exciting time to be a Drake fan.

A couple of months ago, Lil Twist and Lil Wayne collaborated on the song “Addict.” On Monday, the two got together once again for the music video, which can be seen below. This is a triumph for the Young Money stable, as we get a huge blast of nostalgia. Lil Twist comes through with some catchy flows and melodic passages. Meanwhile, Wayne drops a spirited verse that reminds you of what the legend can do on the mic. As for the production, it has that 2000s quality to it, but in a way that is fresh and rejuvenated for the 2020s. This is just a dope song, and if you are a fan of Lil Wayne and Lil Twist, this is a must-listen.

Release Date: February 13, 2026

Genre: Hip-Hop

Album: N/A

Quotable Lyrics from Addict

Don’t I treat you like the plug though? Beating down your front door
Looking in your window, all I need is one dose
All we need is love though, I won’t sink your love boat
I’ll sit in your front row, I’ll be screaming “Encore”

Their quick union surprised everyone, as did Odom's near-death overdose while they were separated.

Recent comments have people revisiting Lamar Odom and Khloé Kardashian. Here’s how their relationship played out.

The post Lamar Odom & Khloé Kardashian’s Chaotic Relationship Timeline appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

The recent conversation around Lamar Odom and Khloé Kardashian didn’t come out of nowhere. It picked back up after the release of Odom’s Netflix documentary, Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom, where he revisited their marriage and his addiction, as well as the overdose that nearly killed him. Parts of that story line up with what’s been said for years. However, other parts don’t. Khloé, who appeared in the doc, has already pushed back on some of it, especially around what happened while he was in the hospital.

Read More: Khloe Kardashian Claims Lamar Odom’s Father Wanted To Pull The Plug On Him After Overdose

For a long time, Odom spoke about her with a certain kind of clarity. He owned up to what went wrong and talked about how much he loved her. He admitted to having regrets and recognized how much she showed up for him when things were at their worst. Later, he claimed that the Kardashians were cruel to his family. Now, the tone feels different. Not completely, but enough for people to notice.

Looking back at the relationship, the timeline itself is straightforward. How both of them talk about it now is where things start to change.

2009: A Fast Start & Quick Marriage

They didn’t date long enough for their fans to get used to them as a couple. One minute they were being introduced, the next they were married. Thirty days, that quick. Odom was already a huge name in the NBA, while Khloé was still finding her footing publicly compared to her sisters. Putting them together that fast immediately raised eyebrows.

Yet, they didn’t slow it down to make it make sense to anyone else. They reveled in it and even aired their wedding on reality TV. That speed became part of how people understood them from the beginning—all in, right away.

2010–2012: Reality TV & Public Highs

Following their wedding, the world was flooded with the Odom-Kardashian union. Instantly, they let people in even more. Their unscripted television show, Khloé & Lamar, turned their relationship into something people could watch week to week. The way they moved around each other became part of how the public understood them, and for a while, it worked.

It looked as if they came off comfortable together. Like they actually liked being around each other, which mattered in a space where that doesn’t always read as real. At the same time, things around them were shifting. Odom’s NBA career wasn’t in the same place it had been before, and the attention that came with the show only added more pressure.

2013: Rumors, Addiction, & Separation

It was during this season that the gossip surrounding Lamar and Khloé intensified. Reports begin circulating about infidelity and drug use tied to the basketball star, and for the first time, what people were seeing publicly didn’t line up with what was being said behind the scenes. The relationship that once felt easy starts to look strained.

Read More: Lamar Odom Sends A Hopeful Message To Khloé Kardashian As He Exits “Celebrity Big Brother”

Kardashian didn’t speak on everything right away, but the distance became noticeable. They were no longer moving as a unit in the same way. In December 2013, she filed for divorce. It was a change from what people had been watching just a year or two earlier. The same relationship that had felt open and visible began to close off, leaving more questions than answers about what was actually happening between them.

2015: Overdose & Hospitalization

When news of Odom’s hospitalization hit the news, he and Khloé were already separated. In October 2015, Odom was reportedly found unconscious at the Love Ranch, a brothel in Crystal, Nevada. According to Odom, he was drugged because someone tried to kill him. He fell into a coma and was said to have suffered a series of strokes and heart attacks. For a time, his loved ones didn’t know if he would make it out alive. It was then that Khloé rushed to his side and stayed there until her estranged husband recovered.

Read More: Lamar Odom’s Fiancé Sabrina Parr Says “It’s Hard” For His Kids “To Accept Anyone”

She paused the divorce so she could make medical decisions while he was in the hospital. What had been a private separation moved into something else entirely. The crisis brought them back in the same space, just under very different circumstances. Moreover, this is also where the story starts to split.

Khloé has spoken about what that time looked like from her side while managing his care and dealing with everything around him. More recently, there’s been pushback from Odom on parts of that account, including her claim that his father didn’t want to continue with life-saving efforts while Odom was on his near-deathbed. In his documentary, he also suggested that he had married Khloé only for fame, which was a stark contrast to how he had spoken about her over the years.

2016: Divorce Finalized

After the emergency passed, that didn’t mean the marriage was coming back. Once Odom’s condition stabilized and the immediate crisis was over, the pause on the divorce only lasted so long. Khloé had stepped in when things were life or death, but that kind of care didn’t erase what had already happened between them. At the end of 2016, their divorce was finalized.

There wasn’t some dramatic public blowup attached to that moment. If anything, it felt quiet compared to everything that came before it. The relationship had already changed shape by then. What was left was the legal ending, and the acknowledgment that surviving something together wasn’t the same as rebuilding a marriage.

Post-Divorce Years: Public Regret & Praise

Post-divorce, Lamar Odom’s tone was consistent for a long stretch. He talked about his ex-wife with a kind of openness people don’t usually hear in situations like this. He admitted to cheating and regularly using drugs, and talked about addiction without trying to clean it up. When Khloé’s name came up, it was usually tied to regret.

In some interviews, he suggested that she was the one who got away. Odom even expressed that he still loved her and wished things had gone differently. Soon, it became its own pattern, all pointing back to the same idea that he knew what he had lost and took responsibility for it. For a while, that’s the version of the story people get used to hearing.

2020s: New Narratives

What makes the current moment stand out is how different it sounds from everything that came before. With the release of his documentary, Odom revisited the relationship, but this time the framing isn’t as clear. There were moments when he still acknowledged what went wrong, but he also said he only married Khloé because of her family’s fame.

Khloé quickly clapped back at how he’s speaking about her now, especially given everything that happened during his addiction and recovery. The issue isn’t just what’s being said, but how it contrasts with what he’s voiced for years. She even said that she participated in his Netflix doc as a favor to him, without pay. She felt sucker-punched by his comments and looked visibly frustrated.

At this point, the timeline isn’t really the confusing part. For years, Lamar Odom sounded certain when Khloé Kardashian came up. There was remorse and a clear sense that she stood by him during one of the darkest periods of his life. That version sat with people because it felt direct. Now, the tone is less settled.

Khloé is still speaking from the position of someone who lived through the chaos up close. Odom, at least in this current stretch, seems more willing to question parts of that story or let other people recast it around him. Their relationship was messy, clearly, but what gets remembered and who gets the final say in how it’s told are still evolving in real time.

Rick Ross lives life like a boss, but sometimes he has his slip ups. Thankfully, he was able to avoid some more serious damage, he reveals during a recent interview. While discussing his upcoming memoir, Renaissance of a Boss: Notes from a Creative Reawakening, with Daily Mail, he shares he nearly broke his leg during one of his infamous pool parties.

He says he was trying to complete a jump off of his diving board that he calls the “Double Decker Slapper.”

“I almost broke my f**king leg… But it was fun,” he told them during a Spotify Audiobooks party at The Peppermint Club this past weekend “But we have gonna have a pool party after the car show, June 13.”

He added, “You know, that’s just how we celebrate. So… look forward to that. That’s just one of those fun times.” Overall, it sounds like he has no issues laughing at the moment which is good to hear.

In terms of this memoir, which will be number three for the Mississippi-born MC, this one will focus on how he pushed himself to reach the heights he has in music.

Rick Ross tells Daily Mail, “I appreciate a lot of the falls. I understand them. They prepared you for, you know what I’m saying, the upside.” 

“So, it’s just one of them things that you got to appreciate, you got to love, you know what I mean? If it was anything, I could have told a younger Rick Ross man, ‘you so much closer. Don’t quit, homie.’ That’s like being a senior in school and you drop out right before you f**king graduate. Don’t do it. Don’t quit.”

Rick Ross Announces New Album

But this isn’t all Ricky Rozay had to share. Elsewhere during his conversation, he announced his next album, Set In Stone. He didn’t reveal a release date for it, but he did explain that he pushed himself to the limit creatively.

Overall, it’s his attempt to top all of his previous works.

“I challenged myself musically. That’s what the renaissance is about, it’s not getting to a point where you feel you at a ceiling.”

“Not only should I put out a dope album, it should be f**king challenging any body of work I ever released. And so that’s what the challenge to myself was. So, a lot of the records that I put on it sonically and just the way I feel, you know, what the game needed as my contribution…. I’m gonna be excited the day it’s released.”
