03 Greedo is reaching deep into the vault for his latest release. The rapper links with Ty Dolla $ign for “If I Part 3,” a song reportedly recorded around eight years ago that continues one of Greedo’s longest-running song series. The original “If I” appeared on 2017’s Purple Summer 03: Purple Hearted Soldier, while “If I Part 2” landed later that year on First Night Out. Nearly a decade later, Greedo is finally giving fans the third installment. Ty is also a fitting addition. Both artists have built careers around blurring the line between West Coast rap and melody, making the long-awaited collaboration feel right at home.

Genre: Hip-Hop/Rap
Release Date: August 7, 2026

Victor Victor Worldwide brings a few different corners of rap together for its new compilation EP, IL CAOS PARTE 1. The four-track project pairs rising names King Beamo and Lil Dann with one of rap’s most familiar duos, Lil Baby and Rylo Rodriguez. “Grind Time” is the immediate standout, reuniting Baby and Rylo over dark, hard-hitting production. The two have built plenty of chemistry over the years, and their latest link-up keeps that streak going. At just four songs, IL CAOS PARTE 1 plays more like an introduction to something bigger, especially with “Parte 1” right there in the title.

Genre: Hip-Hop/Rap
Release Date: August 6, 2026
Album: IL CAOS PARTE 1

Tracklist For IL CAOS PARTE 1

  1. Chaining Day — King Beamo
  2. Grind Time — Lil Baby feat. Rylo Rodriguez

Boosie Badazz Thinks Some YouTubers Are Basically Doing The Feds’ Work For Them https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1004887-boosie-badazz-youtubers-feds-hip-hop-news Fri, 07 Aug 2026 03:09:00 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1004887 Boosie is criticizing internet detectives for speaking on criminal activity.

The post Boosie Badazz Thinks Some YouTubers Are Basically Doing The Feds’ Work For Them appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
Boosie Badazz has some questions for people trying to solve crimes from behind their phones. The Baton Rouge rapper recently called out YouTubers and Instagram users who dedicate their platforms to breaking down other people’s alleged criminal activity. According to Boosie, the amount of information people willingly put online could make investigators’ jobs much easier.

“Y’all the golden egg,” Boosie said. He went on to explain that authorities can simply search social media pages for information about whoever they’re investigating.

His bigger issue is how detailed some creators get. Boosie criticized people for publicly naming names, discussing alleged crimes and attempting to connect the dots in situations they aren’t personally involved in.

“Why is you trying to solve a crime on the internet?” he questioned.

Boosie Badazz Questions Why People Even Get Involved

Boosie also challenged the motivation behind the content. He pointed out that the people inserting themselves into someone else’s legal problems isn’t going to get them any reward.

Social media weighed in on Boosie’s thoughts.

“Rappers be surprised when they get 10 years in prison after telling us about felony word for word on their album,” someone commented.

“And where do you think they get the details from my boi?” another person challenged.

For Boosie, however, the conversation goes beyond potentially helping law enforcement. He questioned why social media has become so invested in watching other people fail.

“Why are we so happy with someone else’s downfall?” he asked.

It’s hardly the first time Boosie has voiced concerns about how social media intersects with street culture and criminal cases. This time, he’s putting some of the responsibility on the internet detectives themselves.

50 Cent’s Legal Battle With Ex Shaniqua Tompkins Heads Toward Judge Intervention https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/1004880-50-cent-legal-battle-shaniqua-tompkins-hip-hop-news Fri, 07 Aug 2026 02:24:00 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=1004880 It's clear that this battle is far from over.

The post 50 Cent’s Legal Battle With Ex Shaniqua Tompkins Heads Toward Judge Intervention appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
50 Cent’s ongoing legal battle with his ex Shaniqua Tompkins is moving forward sooner than expected. According to exclusive reporting from AllHipHop, oral arguments in the dispute have been moved up from January 2027 to September 22, 2026. A Manhattan judge will hear arguments surrounding G-Unit Books’ attempt to dismiss Tompkins’ defenses and counterclaims.

The hearing won’t decide the entire lawsuit, but it could shape how the case moves forward. The dispute centers around a life-rights agreement Tompkins allegedly signed with G-Unit Books in 2007. The company claims it paid her an $80,000 advance in exchange for exclusive rights to her life story, along with promised royalties.

Things became complicated after Tompkins launched her Instagram Live series The Unspoken. During the broadcasts, she discussed her past relationship with 50, their son Marquise Jackson and allegations about their time together.

G-Unit argues those conversations violated its rights under the agreement.

Lawsuit Between 50 Cent And Tompkins Takes Another Turn

Moreover, Tompkins has challenged that version of events. She claims she only received $35,000 from the deal and alleges she signed the agreement under pressure from people within 50’s business circle.

Her court filings also include serious allegations of physical abuse against the rapper, including claims involving a separate agreement from 2005. 50’s legal team has denied those allegations and argued that the earlier contract isn’t the agreement at the center of the current case.

The legal fight has already survived one significant hurdle. In March, the court reportedly rejected G-Unit’s attempt to automatically prevail in the dispute, allowing Tompkins to continue presenting her defenses.

Now, both sides are preparing to take those arguments before Justice Robert Reed months earlier than originally planned.

50 and Tompkins have publicly clashed for years, but their latest dispute could ultimately come down to what rights she signed away nearly two decades ago and whether those terms still restrict how she can publicly tell her own story.

As HotNewHipHop previously reported just last week, the ongoing legal battles have had ups and downs. Recently, a New York appeals court has denied the rapper’s attempt to secure a default judgment in his lawsuit against Tompkins after she allegedly failed to respond to the complaint in time.

It’s clear that this battle is far from over.

DJ Khaled just scored one of the more memorable pulls of the entire Victor Victor rollout. Steven Victor personally stopped by his home and handed over the complete six-pair collection. Khaled already had the red pair in his closet, but this time he walked away with everything.

Photos show him cradling the shoes in his arms outside, cigar in hand, looking every bit as excited as you’d expect. Red, yellow, black, purple, and blue joined the pair he already owned, giving him the full run before most fans have even seen half the colorways in person.

The presentation matched the moment. Steven Victor packed the six pairs inside an actual Ferrari Challenge Pirelli tire straight from his own race car. It’s a fitting touch given the entire collection leans into racing and automotive inspiration, right down to the multicolored tread pattern on the outsoles.

Khaled joins Jadakiss as one of the few people to receive the entire collection ahead of release. Boxer Gervonta “Tank” Davis was also on hand for the delivery, along with Khaled’s son, who got handed a pair or two of his own during the moment.

Victor Victor x Nike Air Force 1

This collaboration has leaned almost entirely on celebrity reveals instead of traditional marketing. Victor Wembanyama debuted the yellow and black pairs during last season’s playoffs. LeBron James wore an unreleased purple pair before his move away from the Lakers. Gervonta Davis revealed the green colorway just last week.

Two pairs are already rolling out to the public. The “University Red” and “Yellow Zest” colorways release today, August 6th, through Victor Victor’s webstore for $150 each. Black, purple, and green are expected to follow throughout the rest of Fall and Holiday 2026.

Interestingly, there’s a seventh pair that won’t ever hit shelves. A separate royal blue colorway was made exclusively for Jay-Z and isn’t part of the public release. A different blue version is still expected to join the retail lineup down the line.

The post The Yeezy YS-01 Release Looks Like It’s Back On appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
New photos are giving fans a real reason to believe this release is actually happening. Stockroom images show stacks of Yeezy-branded boxes now sitting inside a JD Sports location. The caption simply reads “Ye is back.”

This comes after a rocky few weeks for the release. The Yeezy YS-01 Slide briefly appeared on JD Sports’ release calendar with an August 13th date. That listing was pulled shortly after, leaving fans unsure if the drop was still happening at all. No official reason was ever given for the removal, which only added to the confusion.

Seeing actual product show up in stores is a strong signal things are back on track. It suggests the removal was likely a scheduling issue rather than a full cancellation. Shipments arriving ahead of a release date is usually a good sign for buyers. It also means employees are likely already prepping displays and stockrooms ahead of launch day.

This marks a big moment for Ye’s independent Yeezy brand. It would be the first time his footwear returns to a major retail chain since the adidas partnership ended. Up until now, Yeezy products have only been available through the brand’s own website, which hasn’t always made for the smoothest shopping experience.

YS-01 Yeezy Slides

The YS-01 is priced at $44 through JD Sports, slightly higher than the $40 price on Yeezy’s own site. It’s the same molded foam slide design from the adidas era, just without the Three Stripes branding.

Exact colorways for the JD Sports launch haven’t been confirmed. Yeezy’s own site has previously offered the slide in shades like Chocolate, Blue, Grey, and Black. Pairs are expected to be available both online and in select stores.

For a brand that’s struggled with shipping delays in the past, a retail partner like JD Sports could make a real difference. Faster fulfillment and easier returns alone could change how fans feel about buying Yeezy again. If August 13th holds, this becomes one of the more notable sneaker retail moments of the year.

The post Tory Lanez’s Wife Loses Divorce Bid After Case Stalls appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
A delayed divorce petition has left Tory Lanez legally married while he continues serving a 10-year prison sentence. A Los Angeles judge dismissed Raina Chassagne’s case after the estranged couple failed to move it toward a final judgment.

According to court records obtained by USA TODAY, Judge Nicole M. Heeseman dismissed the petition in July. The court formally issued notice of the decision on August 6, citing a “failure to bring the action to judgment” within the required timeframe. The ruling does not grant the divorce Chassagne requested, leaving the marriage legally intact.

Chassagne filed in June 2024, less than one year after marrying Lanez in June 2023. She cited irreconcilable differences and listed June 1, 2024, as their separation date. The filing also requested legal and physical custody of their son, Kai’Lon, while leaving spousal support for the court to determine.

Chassagne Once Stood By Her Man

Her public support for Lanez continued after the petition was filed. In a June 2025 Father’s Day tribute, Chassagne praised his relationship with their son and wrote that the family could not wait for him to return home. The post did not indicate whether she intended to abandon the divorce case, and neither party has publicly explained why the proceedings stopped moving.

Lanez, whose legal name is Daystar Peterson, was convicted in December 2022 of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, possessing a loaded and unregistered firearm in a vehicle, and discharging a firearm with gross negligence. The charges stemmed from the July 2020 shooting of Megan Thee Stallion. He received a 10-year sentence in August 2023, and a California appeals court upheld the conviction in November 2025.

The California Supreme Court declined to review his case in February, leaving the conviction in place. No new divorce petition has been announced since Chassagne’s case was dismissed.

The post Logo Designer Responds To ASAP Rocky Controversy appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

The designer whose excitement cost him a possible collaboration with ASAP Rocky is now trying to close the book on the misunderstanding. Allan Peters issued an apology after sharing a private message from the rapper, explaining that he deleted the post as soon as he realized Rocky considered it a breach of trust.

Peters said he was genuinely surprised to see Rocky’s name in his inbox. The rapper had contacted him about revising a brand logo and asked about his rates, prompting the designer to post a screenshot of the exchange for his more than one million Instagram followers. Peters later noted that sharing messages from well-known people was not unusual for him, but this particular post landed differently.

Rocky responded publicly beneath the screenshot and called the decision “distasteful.” He also ended the potential working relationship on the spot, writing, “Well I guess we won’t be working, best of luck buddy.”

Putting It All Behind Him

In his follow-up video, Peters did not challenge Rocky’s reaction or attempt to argue that the message was harmless. He said he understood that the rapper was unhappy about having a private business inquiry placed online and removed it immediately. His apology appeared directed at putting the dispute behind them rather than salvaging the logo assignment.

The exchange became an unexpectedly large conversation about the boundaries between professional access and social media content. Peters viewed the message as an exciting career moment worth sharing. Rocky saw the post as evidence that a private conversation could not remain private before any agreement had been reached. Check out Peters’s post below.
