Joe Budden Talks Being A Fan Of Meek Mill’s Music, Blames Media For Their Feud (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) The most talked about rap battle of 2015 was between Drake and Meek Mill.

However, prior to that infamous back-and-forth, Meek was engaged in a feud with Joe Budden weeks before.

The bad blood began when Budden criticized Meek’s behavior toward his girlfriend Nicki Minaj at the 2015 BET Awards.

“Meek’s music is too hard for me to look at him with this f-cking sappy f-ck sh-t. Be the hardcore guy that I’m sure she was attracted to at some point. It’s nasty. I hate everything about it,” stated Budden on his podcast at the time. “I’m glad a dark-skinned guy is behaving this way. Light-skinned n-ggas, we’re not moving like that.”

The New Jersey native recently sat down with Angie Martinez and shared he actually enjoys Meek Mill’s new project DC4.

“I am a fan. I blame media for blowing that type of stuff up,” said Budden referring to his public conflict with Meek. “I’m totally able to have verbal disputes with emcees and be a fan of their music. So I like Meek’s album.”

The Slaughterhouse member added, “The music I heard is what we want from Meek.”

While the two rap stars were still bashing each other this past summer, Budden claimed he currently has no issues with Meek or anyone else he once had tension with like Lloyd Banks, The Game, 50 Cent, and Drake.

“I’m in a real good place,” Budden declared. “You would hope that emcees, rappers, or just artists period are able to grow and not have grudges that span over the length of ten years. I think that’s good people are able to mature in Hip Hop that way.”

G Herbo To Release Joint Project With Producer Southside (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) Another rapper-producer collaborative effort is on the way.

G Herbo was a guest on The Breakfast Club, and the Chicago spitter discussed teaming up with Atlanta producer Southside.

“I’m dropping an EP next week called Strictly For My Fans. That was something I just put together to show a token of my appreciation for the fans,” said Herbo. “Then I got a project coming with Southside, an album we’re gonna drop.”

He continued, “Then my [solo] debut album, Humble Beast. I don’t really have a date because I have so much that I’m working on.”

The “Lord Knows” rhymer also revealed he currently has over 150 songs recorded.

His year-long break from dropping a body of work is set to come to an end, and Herbo explained the hiatus to Angela Yee, Charlamagne Tha God, and DJ Envy.

“It’s all about timing for me. I want to be remembered. I want to be legendary,” stated the Cinematic Music Group representative. “I don’t want nobody to say, ‘Herb dropped this music and that sh*t was alright. He ain’t put his time into that. That ain’t the Herb I know.’ I think about that.”

In 2015, Herbo releasedBallin Like I’m Kobe. The mixtape featured Southside producing the track “Rollin.”

Southside’s production discography also includes work with Jay Z, Kanye West, Drake, Future, Meek Mill, Waka Flocka Flame, and more.

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian Let Bodyguard Go After Paris Robbery

(AllHipHop News) Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have let go of their main bodyguard, Pascal Duvier, following the reality star’s armed robbery ordeal in Paris, France a month ago.

Multiple sources tell news show Entertainment Tonight the 43-year-old’s departure is part of a security shake-up following the incident, during which Kim was bound and gagged in the bathroom of her apartment.

Duvier has been by Kim’s side since 2013, and with Kanye since 2012, and both valued his security advice and service.

After protecting Kardashian from a bum-pinching prankster in Paris days before her robbery ordeal, Kim praised the minder by calling him a “G (gangster)” on social media.

Duvier was taking care of her sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall Jenner elsewhere in the city as they enjoyed a night out when thugs raided Kim’s Paris pad.

“Pascal, along with a couple other security members of their team, were recently let go by Kim and Kanye,” a source tells Entertainment Tonight. “It’s a pretty tough situation overall and they love Pascal, but they couldn’t take any more chances.

“Kim and Kanye are reassessing their security detail now. Kanye is freaking out – this really threw him for a loop. There will be a lot of things that change now in terms of security, especially with the children.”

But the hotel concierge who was held at gunpoint alongside Kim recently insisted there was little Duvier would have been able to do if he was with Kim when she was attacked.

“They have guns, you can’t move,” he told ET last month. “He can’t do anything. He can’t.”

The staff member also revealed that a call from Duvier may have ended the robbery abruptly.

“When her (Kim’s) phone rang, I take it and saw Pascal – the name of the bodyguard – and I told the guy, ‘You know who is calling now? He is her bodyguard, and if she didn’t answer him now, he will come with police (sic)’.”

Duvier won’t be short of high-profile clients for long – his past celebrity roster includes Ciara, David Guetta and Frank Ocean.

Vic Mensa Teams With UGG For Men And Footaction To Launch Fall Campaign (PHOTOS/VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) Roc Nation rhymer Vic Mensa partnered with UGG  for a new fall campaign.

A curated selection of UGG for Men boots such as the Neumel, the Butte, the Roskoe, the Hannen TL, and the Harkley will be sold at Footaction.

“We are honored to partner with Vic Mensa to launch our relationship with lifestyle retailer, Footaction,” said Alice Hampton, Senior Director of Global PR for UGG. “Vic is an incredible creative talent who brings a unique perspective to our men’s range, which will be sold at Footaction this fall. We could not be more excited to welcome him, and Footaction, into the UGG family.”

Photos for the campaign were shot in Vic’s hometown of Chicago. Jake Osmun was the photographer for the shoot, and Zoe Costell served as the personal style consultant.

“I like where the UGG brand is going,” said Vic Mensa. “They’re open to trying new things and really pushing forward. When someone like me wears UGG, it’s kind of like repurposing the brand from its original concept, which was made for surfers. I think it’s dope that they’re taking new perspectives.”

Desiigner Kinda Talks To AllHipHop In His Own Special Way – Panda!!!!! Burrraahh!!

(AllHipHop Features) Love it or hate it, Desiigner has emerged as one of the most endearing, often confounding characters in the ever-evolving world of Hip-Hop music.

However, interviewing him can be difficult and the young Brooklyn rapper has proven himself to be a bit of an enigma with spastic tendencies.

Philadelphia scribe Jhiermiel Showell caught up with Desiigner and it was as entertaining as the rapper’s performances. It went a little something like this:

AllHipHop: What goes through your head minutes before you step on stage?

Desiigner: Crazy! Y’all know what time it is. Shutting it down for all my fans out there. Everybody just (my jaw) you know – Gik! Gik! Gik! Aye!

What would you be doing if you weren’t doing music?

Do music. Doing some more music. Putting a little more creation down. You know how we do that sh*t. Yeah. (Smiles)

What’s your formula for putting together a hit record. Like what do you do in the studio to put together a hit record?

(Does a dance that looks like the old Flavor Flav Dance) Crazy! Get crazy, you dig man? Crazy. Get my funk (or fun) on. Y’all know what time it is.
Image result for flavor flav dance gif

Who inspires you?

Sun. Light. Music. Man, just every type of sound. There’s love inside (that is what we believe he said). We do this sh*t. You dig?

The full “interview” clocks in at just under two minutes and is tremendously entertaining and fun. For editing and comprehension purposes, we brought it down to the most relevant parts and its still awesome. What a fun guy Desiigner is.

Kanye West Ends L.A. Concert Short After Experiencing Vocal Problems (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) Kanye West was forced to cut his show short last night.

About 45 minutes into his Saint Pablo Tour stop, Ye told the crowd at the Forum he could not continue.

“I can’t do the show,” said Kanye. “I gotta give y’all a refund. My voice.. I can’t do the f-cking show.”

He added, “I can’t let y’all have a show where I can’t perform. I’m sorry.”

This was The Life Of Pablo album creator’s sixth sold-out performance in Inglewood.

Kanye is next set to hit the stage on November 17 in San Jose, California.

Country Music Awards Does Something More Racist To Beyoncé Than The Racists!

Image result for racism gifRacism is so very alive. You gotta hate it! However, maybe they don’t hate it. Maybe they love it, actually! Recently, Beyoncé performed at the Country Music Awards to the chagrin of trailer parks all over the country. I guess it doesn’t matter that Black people created country music, they are just going to steamroll that with PURE RACISM. So, the comments that the CMA had to deal with were crazy and it was all because of Beyonce. It was B’s fault, right?

Why would you say that, bro? I say that because the CMA decided to ERASE ALL MENTION OF BEYONCE ON THEIR SOCIAL MEDIA AND EVERYTHING ELSE. Everything else: Beyoncé’s performance with the Dixie Chicks was vamoosed from Country Music Association’s website, Facebook, Twitter account. Tweets and Facebook posts that included Beyoncé – GONE! Why? So they could somehow delete racism too? What did Beyoncé do except get them more viewers? Or did they use her and toss her aside once they got what they needed? Regardless its corny and more dangerously, dismissive of the horrendous racism in their viewership. Wouldn’t it be better to disown and diss that sort of backlash?

Nah, delete the Black chick that happens to be one of the biggest stars in the universe.

The only way you can now watch Beyoncé and the Dixie Chicks on-demand is on the ABC website. If they could, I bet they would delete that too.

Look At What Young M.A. Has Started! And Hennessy Ended!

OOOUUU! Well ain’t this some shhhhhh.

Young M.A. certainly heated up fast with her hit “OOOUUU”, so much so that a company called Lilac Co. allegedly partnered with Hennessy to release a special edition of the cognac called “Headphanie.”

Say it aint so!!! Naw bruh. I don’t believe Hennessy was really with this one.

Right now, you can only purchase the drink in Hallandale, Florida, but it will soon be available online.

This still seems like one big joke, but if not, they better cut Young M.A. a fat check. OOOUUU.

Side note: is it just us, or is her other music and freestyles better than her “hit” single?

PICS: Khloe Kardashian Has A Special “Good Good” Over Tristan Thompson

khloe kardashian

Khloe Kardashian must have that good good. Her and boyfriend Tristan Thompson allegedly popped the…no. He didn’t put the question, but he reportedly put a bun in that oven. Yes, a bun in the oven. Reports say Khloe is pregnant by the Cleveland Cavalier. She is supposedly going to move closer to him in Cleveland. But remember LeBron said she can’t come to the games. Now that’s funny!

Here is the next level. Apparently, dun TT went to Kris Jenner and asked for Khloe’s hand in marriage. Shouldn’t he be going to the other one, Caitlyn Jenner? I’m just saying!

Here is something we don’t see too often:

EXCLUSIVE: Former Remy Boy P. Dice DISSES Fetty Wap On New Song “FETTY VANILLI”

(AllHipHop News) Recording artist P. Dice formally of the Remy Boyz has released the first single from his upcoming project, “The Petting Zoo.”

The new single, “Fetty Vanilli” takes aim at Fetty Wap, who P. Dice recently filed a $7 million dollar lawsuit against for co-writing the hit “679.”

According to the documents filed, Fetty Wap had a deal with P.Dice for 16.9% of the profits

P. Dices’ new track, “Fetty Vanilli” samples the 1989 hit, “Girl You Know It’s True” by Milli Vanilli, the group that was infamously exposed for lip-synching back in the 1990’s and were eventually stripped of their Grammy Award.

On the track, which features Dylie Dollas, P. Dice raps about his relationship with Fetty Wap and compares him to a modern day Milli Vanilli.

He raps “Wap you know it’s true, oou oou, oou, I made you.”

In addition to his new project, which is set to be release on November 11th, P. Dice is currently working with Wonderboy Music and has been hitting the studio with French Montana.

Drake & Taylor Swift Are Cooking Up Something “Very Different”

(AllHipHop Rumors) While the internet went in on the possibility that Drake was allegedly chopping down Taylor Swift, it looks like the two actually are just focused on the music.

After all the two fan favorite stars, have 11 Grammy wins and 56 nominations between them, so why not collaborate on music. The internet would surely be here for a joint Kanye West and Kid Cudi diss perhaps.

Anyway, an insider has revealed to E! News that Drake and Swift are joining forces to work on music that is both extremely different and catchy.

The source maintains that although they’ve been having a great time in the studio, they are still keeping it very professional.

Rumors began to spread that the rapper and pop star had a new romance heating up when Drake introduced Swift to his mother at his 30th birthday party.

Taylor has already recruited Kendrick Lamar in the past, so why not go get Drake! Are you here for new music from these two?

Is There Trouble In Paradise For Meek Mill & Nicki Minaj?

The question on everyone’s mind is did Nicki Minaj and Meek Mill breakup? Let’s be honest, we didn’t expect them to last this long.

Nicki and Meek seemed to announce their breakup last night on Instagram via trading subliminal shots.

Knowing these two, this could be all one big publicity stunt. Meek Mill just released new music with his long-awaited ‘DC4,’ and Nicki may be releasing new music next month… so why not create some hype.

Meek posted about not wanting to have to fight with his woman, and Nicki Minaj posted about helping an ungrateful person get on their feet.

Things really got heated when Meek shared a post about having money before he met certain industry cats as well as commented on one of Nicki’s post saying,

“That’s why I make sure I stand on my own and was M’d up when I met you.”

He also posted,

“Don’t act like you played a part in nothing I got going on when I’m doing my thing…because most likely I had a bag b4 I met most of you.”

Now Meek knows being with Nicki, and Nicki speaking out on that man’s behalf has certainly helped him also. Shout out to all my boss b-tches wifing….. well y’all know the rest.

Smh! These kids!

RIP Bankroll! No Plug Is Begging To Be Harmed!

(AllHipHop Rumors) Rapper No Plug is begging to get harmed we swear!

Although he says he killed his former friend Bankroll Fresh out of self defense, all has not be forgotten or forgiven.

Now, No Plug is saying he’s filming a music video in Bankroll’s hood this Saturday.

For months after Bankroll Fresh’s murder, fans wondered what exactly happened to the rapper that day outside of 2 Chainz’s Street Exec studio.

Details of No Plug’s involvement in the murder were unclear until Plug sat down with DJ Vlad and revealed Bankroll’s side started shooting first, and when Plug’s side returned fire Bankroll was shot and killed.

No Plug has since been cleared in the name of self defense, but law and the streets are two different things.

Many feel that No Plug has been bragging about his involvement in the “self defense” murder, and they feel like he has been too cocky lately.

It would probably be in his best interest to not shoot the video there. It sounds like he’s looking to get killed.
