Nicki Minaj Asked Tory Lanez To Remove Her Off ‘Shooters’ After Negative Criticism
Following the release of his sophomore album Memories Don’t Die, Tory Lanez has been on a campaign run and recently sat down with HotNewHipHop where he opened up about the songs on the project and even gave us the backstory on his record, “Shooters.” During the sit-down, the Toronto native admitted that Nicki Minaj was supposed to be on the buzzing single, but asked to be removed following a text consisting of some harsh criticism that Fargo sent to the Jamaica, Queens rapper.
“She was on the record first and I was telling her something about the verse. I wasn’t saying it was bad or anything, her verse was incredible and I’m also like a super-Nicki fan. But I was telling her something and it may have came off.. Cause I was texting her and it may have came off in a different way. She probably read it differently than I said it… I think it maybe kinda came off a little bit arrogant or I kinda said something I shouldn’t have said about her verse and she was like “well n*gga, it’s just not that serious, take my verse off the thing.” We was like, “aight.” I love Nicki Minaj when it comes down to the music and the whole thing but I’m not like a reacher. Once a n*gga says it’s quiet, it’s quiet. I’m fine with that. I’m a great musician… Maybe in the future when the time is right, we’ll do something that’s right that we both feel comfortable with.”
Joe Budden is reintroducing himself to radio with his new Amazon Radio Show, Music Lovers Only.
Premiering on May 16 at 5 pm EST, Music Lovers Only with Joe Budden will be a weekly syndicated series where he’ll be able to interact with fans using the live call-in feature on Amp —the new live-radio app from Amazon. According to the press release, Budden will also be able to curate playlists featuring his favorite songs, all while tapping in with fans about the latest news and issues that matter to the culture.
“As music lovers all we have is each other to spread the word of a good song, a good vibe, and a good set for the spirit,” said Budden. “Get to your favorite spot in the house and get comfortable, we’re just here to have a good time.”
Earlier this year, Nicki Minaj announced she would be leaving Apple Music Beats 1 for Amp, where she’ll be reviving Queen Radio.
Thank you Joe, I rlly appreciate you asking & caring. We have a new home. Official announcement coming soon. I gotta s/o Larry Jackson @ Apple tho, for originally putting the idea on my radar & giving me his blessing to explore new avenues for the show. #QueenRadio 🎀 pic.twitter.com/kX7KYPS7G6

There’s a new certification out! As of May 3, ‘Mystery Lady’ by Masego and Don Toliver just went gold, selling 500,000 copies! The two artists sing out to a lady they have no clue about. They’re just enveloped in how enticing she is.
This lady is unlike any fans whom Masego has given roses to. In his eyes, she’s like no other, which is probably why he’s never seen her!
“Thinking I can make as many songs ’bout a lady
When I haven’t met her
But she on me heavy, on my cerebellum
If I say I love her, am I wrong? Am I crazy?
Am I overzealous?”
In their music video, their mystique breezes through gardens, beach sands, city streets and more just minding hers while Masego follows after her.
Toliver doesn’t bother chasing but he still sings out to this mystery lady.
“Ring, ring, hit my celly (ring, ring)
Remember you went you bad on me, I won’t forget it (ring, ring)
You said you wanna tell on me, now, won’t you tell it? (Yeah)
In between the sheets, you know I got you yellin’ (yellin’)”
This single marks the third track of Masego’s 2020 EP called ‘Studying Abroad: Extended Stay‘ with features from Shenseea, Toliver, Sheléa, and TeaMarrr.
Earlier this month, Jack Harlow revealed the official artwork for his forthcoming sophomore album, Come Home The Kids Miss You.
Supported by the singles, “Nail Tech” and “First Class,” which debuted at no. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, Harlow took to Twitter to announce that only ‘legends’ were featured on his project. Later tweeting out the album tracklist, the First Generation artist is gracing up with 15 tracks with contributions from Drake, Justin Timberlake, Pharrell and Lil Wayne.
“Churchill Downs” was previously leaked on the internet which featured an alleged diss towards Pusha T by Drake. Despite it being leaked, Harlow will still be adding it to his project.
Check out the official tracklist to Come Home The Kids Miss You below.
