(AllHipHop News) Rapper/actor Romeo Miller is not associated with WE tv’s Growing Up Hip Hop reality show any longer. However, on Sunday, he took to Instagram to share his thoughts on how he is being depicted on the program.
The 30-year-old industry veteran uploaded several videos and emails connected to his grievances with GUHH. The caption for the IG slides called out WE tv for several reasons including allegedly mischaracterizing his father Percy “Master P” Miller, using inaccurate editing, and fostering fake hostility among the cast.
Romeo wrote:
PRESS PLAY & SWIPE! I could no longer bite my tongue when a network is using my own father’s words against him when we truly have nothing but love for these people, despite our differences we tried to protect a family and they used it for entertainment. SWIPE LEFT: this is what happens before we get on camera. Imagine fighting for your truth and that not being good enough for “your show”. Seasons later, they are still trying to force relationships and friendships. PIC 2: if you watch the show, you may think I never speak up, but my methods are just different from my fathers. I know if I speak they’ll edit, I know regardless if I speak; they’ll edit the show to make it look as if I don’t speak. I didn’t mind that, my breaking point was them using my religion and faith in the storyline to be made a mockery. I’m not perfect, but my faith is a big key to my success and happiness and that was toyed with. PIC 3: is an example of the end product months later. They push you to your breaking point and use that to promote the show, when in reality the convo was 30min calm and 2min fire. PIC 4: no one knows because no one cares about the truth, but while filming this of course I have to attend certain events because it’s in my contract, I’m dealing with my cousin being murdered and my aunty passing away and out of love, I attend Egypt’s engagement party but I’m chancing missing my aunties funeral. THEY SAID NOTHING ABOUT THAT, only that Romeo thinks he’s too cool so he dipped. PIC 5: well you can read for yourself. PIC 6: you guys really believe a show who doesn’t even have the audacity to use MY ACTUAL SONG?! Lmao PIC 7: the icing on the cake, they build us up to tear each other down!!! This convo with me and @boogiedashtl is the true example of REALITY TV. Out of everyboooddyy on the show, I have zero conflict with Boogs! But since he’s the one who showed up to the meeting , they stir up the tension to get THE SHOT. Look, it’s life and men will be men, we took jabs ♂️ ♂️ But we talked it out after ha. But real life, got luv 4 all the cast (and we will talk soon once they wrap) the show was just draining. Out. ✌ #WeAllWeGot #GodIsGood
Good Intentions pulled in 135,000 equivalent album units in its first week of release. That total put Nav atop the Billboard 200 chart for the second time in his career. He also hit #1 with 2019’s Bad Habits.
“I want to start off by thanking my family, friends,
@cashxo, @theweeknd, all the artists and producers involved and who could forget my LEGENDARY FANS!! #1 again!!! 135k first week!! XO❤️,” tweeted Nav.

Last week, the XO performer/producer discussed trying to reach the pinnacle of the Billboard 200 once again with Good Intentions. He admitted that this album cycle was more calculated.
“I feel like the first time we went #1, it wasn’t calculated. We were just trying to do better than last time. But the stars aligned and everything opened up where like no one really dropped and I went #1,” said Nav. “This time it was more calculated for sure, and we’re still sharpening our tools on the music side.”
Kehlani scored the highest charting position of her career. It Was Good Until It Wasn’t debuted at #2 (83,000 units), surpassing the #3 peak of SweetSexySavage in 2017. You Should Be Here hit #36 in 2015.
In addition, Drake’s Dark Lane Demo Tapes dropped two slots to #3 (79,000 units). Lil Baby’s My Turn slipped two slots to #4 (72,000 units). Lil Durk’s Just Cause Y’all Waited 2 opened at #5 (57,000 units).
(AllHipHop Rumors) When somebody says, ” I got time,” beware! Tekashi is somewhere locked away in a safe house, but he’s started to mess with Snoop Dogg!
Before we get started, let’s get something clear. Tekashi is still an active agent of the state. The feds have compelled him to KEEP working with them! So, he is still on the payroll! Be careful Snoop!
Tekashi 69 brought up some ol mess about Snoop and his wife, which made me cringe. And that really p##### off the D-O-Double G! The weird thing is its not even new information.
But, what was worse was that Tekaski “told” the cops to come get Snoop for allegedly threatening him over social media. He released their private DMs.
Previously, he tried to call Snoop a rat too, suggesting Snoop somehow got Sug Knight knocked! We know that ain’t happen!
Snoop said, “N***** know I ain’t have nothing to do with surge knight getting the time we had the same lawyers. This rat reaching calling me a snitch and FYI He most likely drew up the papers he do work with the police. Suge and me on great terms now so if I told on him we would never be cool and that’s a fact clown. Now carry on and stary tuned for the tattle tales move and record you lil *****.”
This is insane!
I really may have to consider retirement! This dude is causing all sorts of drama! Metallica didn’t have to go through this!
(AllHipHop News) Dropping chart-topping music is nothing new for Future.
It’s come as no surprise that his freshly released album, “High Off Life,” is, well… high up on the charts.
Already hitting gold status, just hours after hitting streaming services, “High Off Life” is expected to do 175K-180K in its first week. The album has already surpassed “The WZRD’s” 125K metric, which also peaked at number one on the Billboard 200 in 2019.
Executive produced by DJ Esco, “High Off Life” boasts twenty-one records with a total of ten guest features that include Drake, Travis Scott, Meek Mill, DaBaby, and more. The tracklist includes previously released singles, “100 Shooters,” “Life is Good” featuring Drake, and “Life is Good” (Remix).
Over the weekend, Future ran a promotion where he flew planes pulling banner pulling a huge banner reading “FUTURE HIGH OFF LIFE OUT NOW” over cities in California and New York
In L.A., the planes pulling huge banners that looked like smoke flying over Huntington Beach, Long Beach, Compton, and Manhattan Beach. In New York, the banners were seen over Queens, Brooklyn, NY Harbor / Statue of Liberty, the Bronx, and Manhattan.
(AllHipHop News) The support that our country’s essential workers are receiving throughout this pandemic has been tremendous.
Even the simplest of acts, such as buying breakfast or lunch, have truly helped frontline workers at such a critical time. Joining the long list of people contributing is the veteran rapper, Jadakiss.
This past week, the New York Hip Hop icon and Yonkers NY native, teamed up with Slice Out Hunger for their “Pizza vs Pandemic” campaign.
Their mission is to deliver pizza to New York and Los Angeles hospitals, providing meals for frontliners fighting COVID-19.
“In this time of tragedy and confusing in the world, I would like to say thank you to the Healthcare Workers on the frontline in both New York and Los Angeles for all their efforts to help those suffering from COVID-19,” shared Jada on his social media platforms.
Launched back in March, the “Pizza vs Pandemic” campaign has already raised over $400,000 to fund its pizza deliveries.
Any additional money raised by the volunteer-run organization will directly impact the communities they serve.
Jadakiss has shared the direct donation page with his fans to spread the support as well.
(AllHipHop News) With COVID-19 wreaking havoc in some of our country’s largest cities, law enforcement has shifted their priorities – especially in Los Angeles, where Pop Smoke’s murder case has gone unsolved.
In addition to witnesses not cooperating, the LAPD ran into new challenges when the pandemic hit the city.
If you recall, back in February, detectives revealed that they were having difficulties with getting witnesses to step up after the rising rapper was shot and killed on February 19th.
Many people were just refusing to give up any information.
Now, even speaking to people in person poses safety concerns, thus slowing down any progress of solidifying witness testimonies.
Pop Smoke’s murder was initially assumed to be a botched armed robbery. Later on, they claimed Pop was, indeed, a targeted hit and the motive has been a puzzle ever since.
With new obstacles in the form of a virus in the way, making any progress, in this case, has become extremely difficult.
Some sources have claimed that investigators remain hopeful with the upcoming June 12th release of Pop’s posthumous debut.
The cops hope that Pop Smoke’s album will re-ignite and rev up the investigation when the rapper is back in the spotlight again.
(AllHipHop Rumors) I saw a little something online and thought very little of it. Come to find out, it was something major that is essentially minor. First of all, it is minor because last night Ludacris and Nelly went over two hours and went song for song and, in some cases verse for song. Anyway, we all know Nelly sold more records than Luda, but Luda is generally regarded as the better rapper. So, what did Luda do? He played some of his stellar verses, but some of the songs were not his. This was lightly noted by Nelly. So, who WON depends on your opinion and view of the artists.
Ali, who is one of the beloved St. Lunatics, has been pretty vocal about his disdain for Ludacris. But, he said that Luda copied, which I never really felt. Here are the original comments that I saw.
In the battle, Luda comments on Ali, but I didn’t see a diss. I just saw Luda say something like, “Ali needs some love.” Clearly, it was an acknowledgment that he saw the comments.
Ali just REALLY dislikes Ludacris! But, he had a point. Luda played a few songs where he was a featured guest and I honestly felt like you were supposed to be playing your songs. On the FLIP, those bars were incredible and really accentuate the lyricism he has. Nelly’s hits have always kept him at the top of the greats and sales pile. Here is a comparison.
(AllHipHop News) Little Richard will be laid to rest this coming Wednesday in a private funeral service at his alma mater, Oakwood University, located in Hunstville, Alabama.
The iconic gospel, R&B and Rock & Roll artist passed away, at the age of 87 last Saturday after losing his battle with bone cancer.
Oakwood University confirmed the reports and shared that Little Richard will be buried in their Memorial Gardens.
Previously known as “Oakwood College” at the time he attended, Richard studied theology at the historically Black Seventh-day Adventist university.
In the meantime, Little Richard House will be accepting flowers and donations on behalf of the late singer, who recorded American classics like “Lucille,” “Good Golly Miss Molly,” “Tutti Frutti” and others.
In a recent conversation with AllHipHop, Desiigner delved deeper into what happened between him and his label, which signed the rapper on the heels of his massive hit song “Panda.”
“I thought I was just gonna be a part of a unit that was more like a circle you know, I mean, not everybody so distant,” Desiigner explained to AllHipHop.com. “I was coming into a situation that was already set like that. I just wanted to definitely branch away from that. I don’t think Desiigner needs to waste time being somewhere where it wasn’t gonna get the reception that he [Kanye] wanted.
“When I left that label, I felt like I wasn’t learning enough,” Desiigner continued. “So I’m out there resourcing a lot myself, even down to beats, production. Even down to investment dudes, you know, just things like that and building myself as a character.”
Now, just over a year after airing it all out, Desiigner is back promoting his latest record “Survivor,” released through his independent record label L.O.D. Records.
The rapper has been steadily ramping up his career. In 2019 he released two singles, “Soul” and Earned iit.”
In 2020 Desiigner has already dropped two joints: “Diva” and his latest, “Survivor.”
“Survivor” is an artsy video directed by Desiigner and Bobby Misner, and highlights the devastation the pandemic is inflicting on society. The video showcases Desiigner in the barren streets, on his way to a medical appointment.
And while “Survivor” is meant to inspire fans during these trying times, the track can also serve as a metaphor for Desiigner’s mentality when it comes to his artistry and his life, since he survived a shooting in Brooklyn when he was 14.
“That New York, Brooklyn blood is always go run through me,” Desiigner said. “We turn dirt into roses and it’s gonna be a pretty garden at the end of this journey.
Desiigner is currently preparing to release a new album later this year.
(AllHipHop News) Ludacris’ battle with Nelly was almost a wash – literally.
The bad weather, heavy rain, and Thunderstorms in Saint Louis, Missouri resulted in a terrible WIFI for Nelly, who was completely unintelligible for much of the first 45 minutes of their Verzuz battle.
Nelly’s audio was so bad Ludacris and Timbaland considered postponing the event.
As over 400,000 waited, Luda politely stalled fans but he blessed fidgety viewers with a pair of treats while everyone awaited Nelly’s return from Wifi hell.
The Atlanta rapper debuted a banging new record called “Silence of the Lambs” featuring Lil Wayne.
In the record, Ludacris disses R. Kelly, and name-checks Colin Kaepernick, Roseanne Bar and Floyd Mayweather with some clever bars.
According to Luda, the song is one of ten tracks he already has recorded with the Young Money rap star.
Luda wasn’t finished though. The rapper received the green-light from Timbaland to debut another new banger with Chance the Rapper, who was among the celebrities watching Luda’s showdown with Nelly.
When Nelly’s Wifi started “working” again, both rappers went through a string of their hits.
Nelly broke out slappers like “E.I.,” “Hot in Herre,” and others, while Luda fired back heat like “Roll Out,” “Area Codes” and his verse on “Made You Look” by Nas.
In the end, most people crowned Ludacris the winner, not only because he seemed to continuously one-up Nelly with just the flow of his selections, but also because of the Saint Louis rapper’s poor connection, which turned most viewers off.
(AllHipHop News) Earlier this week Baltimore Mayor Jack Young held a press conference where young rapper Alexis “C####” Harris, performed “Mask Up.”
The song reminds people of the importance of social distancing – especially since their “Stay at Home” order was lifted yesterday afternoon.
In its place is the “Safer-at-Home” public health advisory as declared by Governor Larry Hogan. As the state moves into Phase One, C####’s “Mask Up” delivered critical information.
The decision was made since Maryland “achieved the 14-day plateauing and decline of hospitalizations.” According to reports, the numbers are on a steady decline.
After a motivating performance, Mayor Young declared C####’s “Mask Up’ as Baltimore’s official COVID-19 anthem. The key messaging in the song encourages continued social distancing and other safety precautions MD residents still need to take.
“Keep your mask on please. 6 feet! That’s what social distance means. So back up.”
With Phase One underway, it will be interesting to see how many continue to follow protocol. They’ll need to keep Harris’ “Mask Up” on repeat as a reminder.
“A lot of it depends on how everyone treats this first phase. If everyone goes crazy and does things that are unsafe, we’re going to balloon up and slow down the process,” said Governor Larry Hogan.
(AllHipHop News) Earlier this week, Kevin Hart went on IG Live as he connected with a few of his fellow celebrity friends.
After calls with Justin Bieber, Shaquille O’Neal, and Usher, Kevin caught up with Ludacris, just in time for tomorrow night’s Verzuz battle against Nelly.
According to Luda, he has a bunch of new music on the way with longtime collaborator and Verzuz co-creator, Timbaland.
“We’ve been writing so much music man, I can’t tell a lot, but obviously you heard the ‘Sexbeat’ song with me, Usher and Lil Jon. We have been actually working on music together,” Ludacris said. “I’m not really supposed to say that but at the end of the day, man, I mean good things are happening with that…I’ve been working with Timbaland, obviously, finishing stuff. And it’s just a lot of stuff in the works. We’re gonna bust the world wide open in a minute with some extremely phenomenal entertaining things,” shared Luda.
It has been nearly five years since Luda released Ludaversal, which was his last full-length album.
While Ludacris didn’t offer up a release date, he did say the music would come before the end of the year, since he will be celebrating the 20th anniversary of the release of his debut album Back for the First Time.
The album featured the hit singles “What’s Your Fantasy” with Shawnna, while producers like The Neptunes, Jermaine Dupri, and Timbaland lent production to Back for the First Time.
Until then, make sure to tune in tonight (May 16th) for Luda’s Verzuz battle with Nelly on Instagram Live.
Enimal is far more than just Issa Rae’s brother, he’s a recording artist in his own right. The rapper, singer, producer, engineer, and actor is here to show the world what he can do — while putting on for his hometown of Inglewood.
Enimal is his real name Lamine backwards, and you may recognize him on Instagram as Enimeezy. Regardless, he’s hungry, determined, and ready to be a mainstay in the rap game.
Crazy part is, Enimal is the one who taught DJ Mustard how to use Reason to produce beats. He was also part of Los Angeles hip-hop group The Fly Guys, who all were lead actors in their own mockumentary produced by his sister Issa (which was her first project before Awkward Black Girl). Enimal would go on to land a recurring role on her critically-acclaimed HBO show “Insecure” on Seasons 1 to 3.
Most recently, he released his brand new project titled Locked In, hailing 7 tracks for each day of the week during quarantine. Beyond the music, Enimal was featured in the new Starbucks commercial and also played Jazmine Sullivan’s love interest in her “Insecure” visual featuring Bryson Tiller.
AllHipHop caught up with Enimal via Instagram Live to discuss the early days producing, his new project Locked In, and what it’s like working with his sister.
AllHipHop: How was your birthday? How’d you celebrate?
Enimal: It was interesting, I was in the house. [chuckles] I made a little trip to the studio, had a session real quick. In the house for the most part. I saw a couple people, real lowkey. I Zoomed with my family and everybody. I got drunk as f##k at the house, people brought me different desserts and cakes.
AllHipHop: How’ve you been holding up in quarantine?
Enimal: Man, I miss outside! Creatively, it’s great. It’s invigorating. Creatively locked in, really focused on who I am and what I really want to do. Stuff I want to create because I’m not influenced by going out, being like “damn that song’s going up, I need to make a song like that.” I’m doing my own s##t. Been able to focus on my production, get stuff done that I’ve been lagging on. My bro Cozz, he’s locked in and focused. I engineer for him.
AllHipHop: I didn’t know you engineer for Cozz! Were you a producer first?
Enimal: I’ve been engineering all his s##t since he first came in. I guess I was a rapper first? It all happened at the same time. Honestly I started freestyling and rapping in middle school really. When I started taking it seriously, I started producing at the same time too just making beats. Got Fruity Loops, the demo version of FL Studio. Was mobbing on that for a year.
AllHipHop: You actually taught Mustard how to use Reason, that’s crazy!
Enimal: Crazy. He used to pull up on me at my pops’ house when I’d be doing sessions with Mann. He’d always be in the cut watching me make beats. He said “damn, I want to learn how to do that.” I’m like “bro, get Reason. I’ll tell you how to do this s##t.”
AllHipHop: Was it super easy for you to learn?
Enimal: No, it wasn’t. I had Reason on my computer for 2 years before I opened that motherf##ker up again after the first time, because I was so confused. I finally learned it, and that’s been my go-to ever since. I love Reason. I’m self-taught in everything. I taught myself engineering, production, everything. I produce 99% of my stuff.
AllHipHop: “Toxic” is a vibe, who or what inspired this one?
Enimal: Honestly, a meme. Someone sent it to me, it said “toxic dudes always want you to come over and talk in person.” Then it said “nah, I’m not coming over because you’re going to F me.” I started dying. [chuckles] I thought “damn, that’s lowkey real.” I wrote, my mind starts spinning. I start making this beat. I was in a mood, in a mode. Put my thoughts on the mic.
AllHipHop: This song’s more R&B than your usual.
Enimal: I even put that in the genre, I put R&B. I was about to put hip-hop, I’m like “that’s a lie.” It’s a full-on R&B song. I’m waiting to see what happens after everyone gets off this Drake hype. I wanted to explore my sound and do what I wanted to do sonically. More specifically now, I’m so zoned into only myself. Outside influences don’t exist to me right now. I’ve always loved vocalizing and singing, but it’s more natural for me to rap. I was in my mood, in my feelings. In my quarantine mode, thinking about s##t. Replaying situations. Contemplating life, that’s what this quarantine got me on. Got everybody on. Looking like a caveman thinking about your life.
AllHipHop: You’ve always had that beard though.
Enimal: I know, but my mustache is growing a mustache now. s##t’s crazy.
AllHipHop: Who gave you the nickname “panty melter”?
Enimal: [laughs] Shout out to Bossip, they’d written an article about me. They called me Issa Rae’s “panty melting brother.” I’m like “thank you for the outstanding journalism. [chuckles] World-class, outstanding publication.” My sister was grossed out by it: “I hate this with every fiber of my being.”
AllHipHop: How was your experience on Insecure? You were on 3 seasons.
Enimal: I’m watching it as a fan this season. I wasn’t acting this year on it so I get to sit back and watch it as a fan, it’s a whole different experience. I’m on the edge of my seat, I don’t know what’s going on. She’s Spoiler K, she will never spoil a single detail ever. She hates spoilers, for real. Even when I was involved, she wouldn’t tell us. I’d read the script that I was on or go to a table reading, but never would she give away the season ending. It was a real need to know basis.
AllHipHop: How has it been working with your sister?
Enimal: Honestly when I’m on set, it’s not really working with her so much. It’s a production. When she’s acting, she’s in her acting mode. She’s not overseeing every shot. She’s in the trailer ducked off while I’m doing my scene. It’s cool, it’s amazing to see her be a boss on set and know this whole s##t is for her.
AllHipHop: I know she’s always been supportive of your music career.
Enimal: Oh, major. She’s always throwing bones, I’m always helping her out with her projects. Did a reading the other day. It’s a blessing to have someone in a position to be so influential in your career. I’ve done commercials, but that’s my first major TV role.
AllHipHop: How’s it feel acting versus doing music?
Enimal: I love the acting checks because they come on time like a motherf##ker. I love acting. When you watch it, it seems so fun because what you’re watching is what you see. Behind it, so much goes into it. That’s the mindblowing part for me, how they shoot s##t out of order. How they can fake shots: “turn here, we gon’ shoot this side.” That was cool to watch.
AllHipHop: Was it long days?
Enimal: Oh my gosh. It got better though. As the seasons progressed, they tightened up. It took 2 days to shoot the first scene that I was in, in the 1st season. I was cool off that one. When the check came, “2 days of something, fasho!” Season 3 when I got my Rollie on, I’m like “alright here we go, let’s get it!” These motherf##kers got me in and out in 5 hours. Damn, this scene would’ve took 3 days a couple years ago. How they really elevated their production level is amazing, it’s super cool.
AllHipHop: Inglewood has recently gotten shine because of your sister Issa and D Smoke. Talk about your roots in the city.
Enimal: Inglewood is where I set up shop. My first studio that was my spot was in Inglewood. I was there for 5 years, really ingrained myself in that community. I had all kinds of dudes from the neighborhood pulling up, from all over the city. That was my location, I grew so fond of that area. I worked there outside of music too. I lived there for 3, 4 years. It’s really its own little city, its own community. It’s different. People from Inglewood don’t say they’re from LA, they say they’re from Inglewood. It left its mark, because our grandparents grew up there. My family grew up right around that area, it’s amazing to me. I’m interested to see how it develops, that’s all I’ma say. [chuckles]
AllHipHop: What can we expect from your new project Locked In?
Enimal: I made 7 songs in 7 days up in this quarantine. Really caught a wave. For me, creativity comes in waves. When I catch one, I have to ride it out as much as I can. Whether it’s a whole album or a couple songs, it varies. This one, I caught a major wave sitting here by myself, high as f##k. Bored as f##k. I’m focused, locked in the house. A lot of different vibes on there, me experimenting a bit. Really getting comfortable though, really in the pockets of focused on the grooves of how the music is flowing. That’s really what I was focusing on: how I’m saying it and how it’s going to get perceived. I’m really interested in seeing how people take to it, I think they’ll like it.
AllHipHop: What can we look forward to?
Enimal: I got a compilation tape with my label. I started a label with my cousin called Padyna Records. This quarantine thing threw everything for a little wicked loop, but it’s on the horizon. Check out Locked In out now. Boom, f##k with ya boy.
(AllHipHop News) Hip-Hop is giving back at such a critical time.
Buffalo NY rapper, Conway the Machine, recently showed his appreciation and support of the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority workers with a simple kind act.
Yesterday morning (May 15th) Conway personally delivered breakfast to the NFTA workers at a few bus garages and rail yards. A longtime local, and resident of this region located in upstate New York, Griselda Records’ founder continues to give back.
Conway greeted and shook hands with the essential workers who were readying departure for the morning shift at the Cold Spring Garage on Michigan Ave.
On Thursday (May 14th), Conway kicked off his weekend of charitable work. On Thursday he assembled a small crew, in partnership with La Nova Pizzeria, to help the Buffalo City Mission.
The Mission services many families, as well as essential works throughout the community.
“The people who work at the City Mission are on the front lines trying to help the less fortunate every day. The bus drivers, too – these people can’t work from home, they’ve got to be out there,” Conway told Buffalo News.
Having put the region on the map, by solidifying his place in Hip-Hop as one of the game’s top lyricists, Conway has always carried his “city” on his back. Buffalo News referenced him as “Demond Price, a now-grown kid from the streets of Buffalo who made it out of some tough situations.”
And in doing so, he is making sure he can help others do the same – especially at such a critical time.
“If I can help, then I’m happy to do so. I love the city, you know?”
