(AllHipHop News) Earlier this week, Cardi B took on the role of the first female co-host for The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon. Videos from the episode have totaled over 14 million combined views on YouTube since Monday.

Petition author Rebecca Gerber writes:

Aren’t you sick of all-male late night hosts fake laughing at the same celebrity stories over and over? It’s time we have some new energy and break up the boys’ club on late night television. It’s time for Cardi B TV! Cardi B is already smashing glass ceilings. Her first single, Bodak Yellow, was nominated for a Grammy and reached number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart — making her the second-ever female rapper to do so. I would love for her to shake up late night TV too (if they can afford her…).

As of press time, over 3,000 people have signed the petition. The present goal is to reach 4,000 signatures.

Slim Jxmmi Sets The Record Straight On “Sibling Rivalry” With Swae Lee

(AllHipHop News) People have been questioning when will the Rae Sremmurd run come to an end with the inevitable breakup. Speculation that a split was coming soon jumped into hyperdrive following Swae Lee’s recent platinum side hustles with Beyoncé (“Formation”) and French Montana (“Unforgettable”).

Then with the announcement of the duo’s 3-part SR3MM LP – which features separate Swae Lee, Slim Jxmmi, and Rae Sremmurd projects – there were even more assumptions the two brothers were on the verge of parting ways professionally. That still does not seem to be the case, but Slim did speak on the perception that a sibling rivalry exists.

“If people see me out and I have a stank face on, they think I’m mad because of that, but I’m mad at them because they want me to be mad,” Jxmmi told Billboard. “I’m always singing ‘Unforgettable’ when it come on in the club, but people look at me like, ‘Is it OK if I dance to this?’ It’s no competition. We’re brothers. At the end of the day, we’re getting a bag.”

SR3MM is expected to land sometime this month. Jxmmi has already dropped “Brxnks Truck” and “Chanel.” Additionally, Swae Lee let loose his own cuts “Hurt To Look” and “Guatemala.” They both joined with Juicy J for the Rae Sremmurd-credited “Powerglide.”

Meek Mill Shares His Post-Prison Plans During Network TV Interview

(AllHipHop News) “He’s become a symbol for criminal justice reform,” declares Lester Holt on his NBC Nightly News segment on Meek Mill. The veteran journalist spoke to the jailed rap star about his upbringing, legal situation, and post-prison intentions.

“It was always a thought in the back of my mind that ten years of probation would bring me back to prison,” said Meek over the phone.

The “Dreams and Nightmares” spitter is presently serving a 2-4 year sentence in Pennsylvania for probation violation. There have been accusations the judge presiding over the case is biased against Meek. Also, reports confirmed the original arresting officer was on a list of cops with a history of misconduct and they were secretly barred from testifying in court.

Meek has garnered significant support from fans and celebrities. This week has seen fellow Philly rapper AR-AB, longtime collaborator Wale, and New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft publicly back the 30-year-old father.

The city’s new District Attorney, the governor, and the supervising probation officer have all expressed approval of Meek being released. There are rumors he could be out as early as next week.

“I think God delivered me a job to helping people, helping minorities that come from these situations like myself,” Meek stated when asked what he plans to do when he gets out. “I say don’t show me no pity because this is my life. This is what I’ve been going through. And I think God put me in this position to be able to do a show with Lester Holt and open up eyes for other young black men.”

A$AP Rocky Addresses Alleged Beef With Travis Scott On ‘Open Late’

(AllHipHop News) Peter Rosenberg launched his new weekly late-night Complex program Open Late on Thursday. Harlem emcee A$AP Rocky was one of the guests on the premiere episode.

Rocky was asked about a rumored beef between him and Travis Scott. The perceived bad blood once again became a trending topic after Funkmaster Flex recently accused Scott of stealing A$AP’s style.

“Bunch of rappers stole Asap Rocky’s swag! Think they slick!,” tweeted Flex on April 2. He followed that by adding, “Oh? U want names? First name: Travis Scott!!! Who else y’all think?”

The Hot 97 deejay later posted, “Bunch of rappers stole Asap Rocky’s swag! Think they slick!” That got a reply from Rocky, who commented, “FLVCKO FACT.”

Rosenberg brought up the so-called “weirdness” between the two rhymers on Open Late. Rocky responded, “[Flex] is speaking his opinion. It’s times when I feel like I’ve pioneered a lot of sh-t but don’t get acknowledgment from certain people or artists. I think a lot of people see it too.”

The “A$AP Forever” performer added, “I don’t even know why we’re talking about Travis Scott right now. No shade… I think Travis Scott makes cool music. And he had a baby, I’m happy for that.”

Back in 2016, A$AP Nast also accused Travis of biting his group’s swag. However, his A$AP Mob partner downplayed the theft accusations while speaking with Ebro In The Morning.

“If you gonna do something and influence people, you can’t be arrogant about it when somebody gets inspired,” stated Rocky at the time. “When people get inspired, you can’t fault them for that. That makes you look crazy.”

Cardi B’s IG Vid Doubles The Views Of Nicki Minaj’s Vid After “MotorSport” Drama

(AllHipHop News) For months, there have been rumors of a behind-the-scenes feud between Cardi B and Nicki Minaj. Yesterday, it all came to a head in public thanks to Nicki’s new interview with Zane Lowe.

The Beats 1 discussion featured the Young Money rapper sharing her side of the story about the creation of the “MotorSport” single by Migos. Nicki stated, “The first interview [Cardi] did after ‘MotorSport’ came out, it just really hurt me, because she looked so aggravated and angry, and the only thing she kept saying was, ‘I didn’t hear that, she changed her verse.'”

Apparently, Minaj was referring to an interview Cardi did with Capital XTRA where she said, “When I heard [‘MotorSport,’] her verse wasn’t finished. It’s not the verse that’s on it right now… I just felt like it’s a perfect opportunity for me to be on a track that’s big like them.” Nicki later admitted she did alter her verse but claimed it was Cardi and Atlantic Records that asked for the lyric changes.

The revelations on Lowe’s radio show caused fans of the two stars to defend their favored artist across social media. Nicki Minaj (86 million followers) and Cardi B (21 million followers) uploaded videos to their respective Instagram pages just hours apart.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BhfAv0ehlS1/?hl=en&taken-by=nickiminaj

Nicki’s “in-studio” performance of “Chun-Li” totaled 3.7 million views/760,000 likes, at the time of publication. However, Cardi’s clip of her dancing to “Drip” – posted 2 hours after Nicki’s vid – collected 8 million views/2.3 million likes.

While the IG view count is not necessarily an indication of which woman is garnering more support at the moment, it does show there is still a high level of interest in Cardi B even during this “MotorSport” dust-up. Meanwhile, Nicki is dominating the current iTunes charts as ‘Chun-Li” and “Barbie Tingz” hold the top two spots.

Nicki Minaj Caught Telling A Big Lie About Cardi B

By Houston Williams

“If Cardi’s the QB, I’m Nick Lombardi.”

(AllHipHop Rumors) I know some of you are going to get sick this Nicki Minaj / Cardi B stuff but the truth is, it is rolling out as we talk. The latest is this: Nicki Minaj has been caught telling a straight up lie about Cardi B and her so-called issues. I am not sure if Cardi B was aware of it, but Nicki dissed Cardi B on the song they did together, “Motorsports.” Remember in the recent interview with Beats1, Nicki played the victim role, even coming to the point of sounding like she was crying.

Put this in perspective, Cardi B’s man and child’s father is in the Migos so there is that level. But, she literally took a shot at Cardi B on the song “Motorsports.” She said: I am the coach and you are just a player, Cardi. Vince Lombardi is like best coach to have ever lived. Listen to this.

Here is a bit more.

Here is some more.

Apparently, Atlantic Records has given this OK so that everybody understands that Nicki is lying and that Cardi played no role in this beef. The verse was changed after Cardi was added to the track. Nicki has not done a song with another rap chick until Cardi, but that was not her own record. Correct me if I am wrong. I am pretty sure Cardi won’t jump into this fray, but all those bars on the new Nicki songs seem to be directed at Cardi.

I Do think Cardi is like:

And were is Remy Ma in all of this? I don’t know, but I feel like she deserves some sort of credit. Not sure why, but she is vegan so I don’t see her beefing anytime soon. 🙂

Co-Founder Of Fat Joe’s Sneaker Store Looking At 20 Years In The Bing

(AllHipHop News) The co-founder of Fat Joe’s sneaker store in New York City could be heading to jail for fraud.

Scott Spina, 20, is accused of stealing credit card numbers from customers, and racking up over $550,000 in fake purchases.

Prosecutors claim Spina stole the money and wasted it on frivolous items like a golf cart and an all terrain vehicle.

Before his run in with the law, Spina up was well-known in celebrity circles to be able to get his hands on the rarest kicks.

He ended up partnering with Fat Joe to open UP NYC, but the rapper quickly banned him from the store after a credit card processors claimed the retail sneaker store made $300,000 worth of fake charges in less than a month, from December of 2016 to January of 2017.

Scott Spina is facing over 20 years in prison for wire fraud and other charges related to the thefts.

Nicki Speaks: It Sure Looks Like There IS Beef With Cardi B

(AllHipHop Rumors) Damn, B. Cardi kept it classy and said that any beef between her and Nicki Minaj was “fanmade.” But Nicki Minaj is now saying that isn’t the case.

“I have never seen her show me genuine love in an interview. I can just imagine how many girls wish they could of been on a song with Nicki Minaj,” she said in a recent interview with

“The only thing with Cardi that really, really, really hurt my feelings was the first interview she did after ‘MotorSport’ came out. With ‘MotorSport,’ I kinda felt ambushed,” she stated. “The first thing that came out of her mouth about a Nicki Minaj feature was ‘she changed the verse’ … When it was time to clear the air about that, no one did that. All of them allowed me to look like I lied.”

Listen here for the full partial interview (hahaha).

Nicki is somehow the victim now?

How the hell can a Cardi B “hurt” a Nicki Minaj. I mean, come on, did the “Shether” song hurt? That was a real moment where you could feel some pain. And, all the shade that Lil Kim has gotten over the years…really? Hmm…it sounded like Nicki was crying so perhaps she is feeling some genuine pain. I don’t know guys, Drake drops a song on Cardi’s release date and Nicki drops a pair of singles a few days after. Now, Nicki, after months of social media silence is talking about…Cardi. I think this is a well orchestrated “assault” on the career of a threat. BUT THAT’S OPINION.

What say YOU?
