By: ClassicOneCategory: Rumors

Ever since Iggy Azalea and Nick Young announced their split, rumors began to swirl about the aftermath. Rumor has it that Iggy allegedly flat bedded Nick’s car and threw his belongings outside of their home. Iggy took to Twitter, to deny putting Nick’s personal items on the lawn.

“I never had anyone’s car towed nor did I kick nick out of “my” house. The home belongs to nick, I am the one moving. Thanks.,” said Azalea.

After she cleared that up, other rumors began to spread about the real reason behind their break up.

Allegedly Nick was caught out cheating again, but this time it was with his baby mama Keonna Necole!

The word is he even got his baby mama pregnant, and Iggy found out and flipped out. We are kinda starting to feel bad for Iggy.

Drake Facing Lawsuit From Detail Over Alleged Attack

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) Noel “Detail” Fisher is seeking money from Drake.

The producer of Lil Wayne’s “How To Love” and Beyoncé’s “Drunk In Love” is suing Drizzy for allegedly orchestrating an attack at the rapper’s Calabasas home.

According to TMZ, Drake wanted to sign Detail as an exclusive producer back in 2014, but the Detroit bred Cash Money affiliate declined the offer.

Apparently, Drake was upset about the rejection.

Detail claims he was invited to Drake’s home to work on music later that year.

The lawsuit contends that Detail was attacked by Drake’s “bodyguard” Chubbs once he arrived at the location, and he suffered a broken jaw from the incident.

Chubbs supposedly yelled, “I will beat all your a####, including your b-tches. I don’t give a f-ck. I will hit you again. Do you think Drake is soft? You think Drake’s a punk?”

Detail believes Drake set up the attack, and he wants to be compensated. An exact amount has not been disclosed at this time.

Drake’s 2013 album Nothing Was The Same included production work by Detail.

The Grammy winner helped create “Own It,” “305 to My City,” and “Pound Cake / Paris Morton Music 2.”

Fetty Wap “Wake Up” Drama At Eastside High School Rages On Over Misleading Documents

By: G.Avant (@G_Avant)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) Eastside High School officials are still being questioned after school documents concerning the filming of Fetty Wap’s “Wake Up” video were revealed to be improperly completed.

A few major issues raised by the mishandling of the scheduling forms for the video centers around requirements that outside groups pay fees and provide insurance for using the educational facilities, and if those duties were neglected.

According to the North Jersey News, one main issue was the fact that the rapper’s name was never mentioned on any of the forms that have been reviewed thus far.

“That’s what we in the insurance industry call being evasive. If everything is on the up-and-up, why be evasive,” quipped Victoria Oquendo, a member of the school district’s parent organization.

District officials claimed that the ongoing investigation is not due to the controversial content of Fetty’s “Wake Up” video.

According to the report, the scheduling form indicated the involvement that the video was being shot on behalf of Youth Counseling Services Inc., and Eastside High School’s Home School Council, an alleged parents group for the school.

The dispute has been raging ever since Fetty Wap released the video for “Wake Up,” which is set inside a classroom in Eastside High, complete with weed smoking and pole dancers.

Eastside High’s principal Zaiti Moody has been placed on suspended leave for his alleged involvement in the incident.

The suspension has been protested by concerned supporters including Fetty Wap, who made a brief appearance and apologized for the video.

Tyler The Creator Releases “PillowTalk” Remix Without Zayn Malik After Singer Flakes On Studio Sessions

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) Zayn Malik dropped out of recording sessions with Tyler The Creator, according to the rapper.

When Zayn was working on his solo material last year, following his departure from One Direction, Tyler reached out to him on Twitter and suggested they worked together.

Zayn seemed keen, replying the idea “sounds sick.”

However, their collaboration never surfaced and Tyler released his own remix of Zayn’s debut single “Pillowtalk” on Tuesday (June 16) and revealed on Twitter that they never teamed up in the end, because the pop star didn’t show for their scheduled sessions.

A user wrote, “why don’t u and zayn just collab already (sic),” and Tyler replied, “CAUSE THAT N**GA FLAKED ON STUDIO SESSIONS TWICE.”

Back in 2015, Tyler wrote on Twitter, “HI @zaynmalik I HAVE BEAUTIFUL INSTRUMENTALS AND YOU HAVE A VOICE LETS FIGURE THIS OUT MY GUY . EPIC ALBUM CUTS THO (sic) NO RADIO SINGLES,” and he replied, “sounds sick BRO let do some s**t”.

This isn’t the first time Zayn has cancelled on work commitments; he dropped out of appearing of TV program “The Graham Norton Show,” then a radio appearance, and most recently the Capital FM Summertime Ball earlier this month .

He explained to fans that he has been having anxiety issues surrounding live solo performances and it had become too much before the concert.

“I flew into the UK last night to appear in my home country in front of my family, friends and most importantly, my UK fans,” he wrote on social media at the time. “Unfortunately, my anxiety that has haunted me throughout the last few months around live performances has gotten the better of me…with the magnitude of the event, I have suffered the worst anxiety of my career.”

He apologized to fans and concluded, “I know those who suffer anxiety will understand and I hope those who don’t can empathize with my situation.”

Zayn has reportedly turned to Adele for advice on how to overcome his anxiety issues and his management are said to be doing everything they can to help him.

By: ClassicOneCategory: Rumors

It’s pretty clear that the new Guwop will take some getting used to for some of his fans. Upon Gucci Mane’s release from Prison, one couldn’t help but to notice his shockingly different appearance. The rapper has significantly slimmed down. With the help of his girlfriend entrepreneur Keyshia Kaoir, the rapper really has the post prison glow up down. Well the internet seems to believe that the person who Keyshia has been showing off on social media is actually a Gucci clone! Quotes from a satirical site also went viral claiming that Boosie BadAzz said that the man everyone’s been seeing isn’t the real Gucci. Gucci seems to find humor in the clone rumors as he made a video saying that he would not confirm or deny them. Do you think this is the real Guwop? Some claim that some of his tattoos are missing too.

Wyclef Jean Talks Making A Comeback, Gun Control & Donald Trump

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) Wyclef Jean is getting ready to return to music with his first album in 7 years. Carnival III: Road to Clefication is expected to arrive sometime this year.

But what exactly is the 46-year-old former Fugees member hoping to achieve with his latest collection? Wyclef spoke to Billboard, and the 3-time Grammy winner is looking to inspire the current generation of artists and start a dialogue with their followers.

“When people like us from the ’90s decide that we’re gonna come back, we have to be like, ‘You don’t have to change who you are – you can still be you,'” explained Wyclef. “Like on ‘Hendrix,’ dudes like yo, he trappin’ on guitar, Clef sounds like Future with no Auto-Tune or it’s like Future sounds like Clef with Auto-Tune. It opens the conversation for the kids.”

The interview also included Clef discussing his music being a reflection of current events such as the mass shootings that have taken place in America. He shared his thoughts on the call for more gun control legislation in the wake of the recent massacre in Orlando.

“I understand gun control is very important but at the same time, it scares me because I think the mercenaries already have the guns and that they hide them in their basements somewhere,” said Wyclef. “I see so many cowardly acts where so many innocent people are constantly caught out there with no firearms or no nothing. That makes me emotional because what happens if I’m in my crib and somebody just popped up on me, which these days is the number one possibility.”

Another topic concerning the ongoing political conversation in this country came up as well – Donald Trump. Wyclef made it clear he is not a supporter of the presumptive Republican nominee for president.

“The reason the United States of America, the land of immigrants, is so special is because it takes all of us together and we become America,” Clef stated. “Everyone can see at this point that Trump is just an egomaniac. We definitely gotta make sure that we vote.”

Watch Wyclef Jean’s lyric video for “Hendrix” below.

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: News

50 Cent Talks Donald Trump Repeatedly Filing For Bankruptcy

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

(AllHipHop News) Some fans of 50 Cent were shocked when they found out the rapper/actor/mogul filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2015. 50 had reportedly amassed a net worth over $150 million, but a couple of legal losses left the G-Unit leader more than $36 million in debt.

Of course, 50 is not the first person to use the Bankruptcy Code to help alleviate financial hardships. Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s companies have filed for bankruptcy at least six times.

The Daily Beast spoke to 50 about Trump’s tendency to bankrupt his businesses. He even offered some advice to The Donald.

“[Trump] knows about it. He’s done it four times!” said 50 Cent. “Donald Trump… You know, what’s interesting is the court system doesn’t know the difference between what you can say in entertainment, and what you say under oath, so you have to be really careful with what you say.”

50 admitted the billionaire real estate magnate is causing him to like former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton even more. Some of Trump’s controversial rhetoric and policy positions have many other potential voters turned off as well (70% of Americans have an unfavorable opinion of Donald Trump).

However, 50 believes Trump will come out a winner in the long run, even if he does not make it to the White House.

“He’s someone who could potentially run America, so he’s already paid himself,” stated 50. “You know how much they’ll pay Trump to do public speaking, whether he becomes the president or not? It’s already worth it!”

As for 50 Cent’s own monetary situation, he insisted his bank account is not hurting at the moment.

“My money? I have a lot of money,” declares the Get Rich or Die Tryin’ album creator.
