Wiz Khalifa had to get a flossin' fan out in Thailand back to solid ground -- after the guy confused his performance for an exotic peep show ... and made it rain cash money all over the stage!!!

We obtained footage of Wiz performing at the Rolling Loud Thailand 2024 after-party at Club 808 in Pattaya over the weekend.

Wiz finished his performance of "Black & Yellow" without a hit but was clearly annoyed throughout the show because he gave the guy an earful when he finished!!!

Kendrick Lamar is rolling full steam ahead with his spotlight-hogging "GNX" album ... on Monday, his long-anticipated "Squabble Up" single dropped in HD!!!

Reuniting with celebrated director Calmatic, the two L.A. natives turn a simple living room into the full-blown California experience they grew up with ... colorful gang life, girlies acting bad and boujee, Latinos livin' up the party and more!!!

In the vein of the Pop-Out Concert, Kendrick also invites the homies from all around the way ...  G Perico, RJMrLA, Big Floyd and Johnny El MerroJonkero get it crackin' in the background!!!

Drake is rejecting all the deposits Kendrick Lamar's surprise "GNX" album floated in his direction with his nose up high and calling make-believe on everything being said about him!!!

Over the weekend, Drake kept it close to the home base on popular Canadian live streamer xQc and let his thoughts be known after introducing himself … “You need facts to take me out; fairy tales won’t do it.”

It’s a defiant double down … Drake previously echoed these thoughts on his final Kendrick diss “The Heart Pt. 6” back in May — a track that has since been retitled and remastered by Kendrick!!!

Danielle Bregoli's spending time with her loved ones amid her difficult cancer diagnosis ... stepping out with her boyfriend in the first photos since the news broke.

The social media sensation, also known as Bhad Bhabie, stepped out in Calabasas Friday ... with a tight black shirt, matching leggings and Puma slides on.

Her head is covered with a beanie in these pics ... matching her man Le Vaughn's style as the two headed toward their car.

It's no secret that Lizzo has been putting in the work at the gym for a while now, for anyone who follows her on Instagram ... and it has certainly paid off!

The singer recently posted stunning new photos of herself ... and her weight loss has been dramatic.

In a series of snaps and a short video ... Lizzo sat in a car, wearing a sheer white top, with her hair in "milkmaid braids."

Cardi B had her curves on full display Friday night ... when she dazzled in New York for a friend's birthday.

The superstar rapper was snapped exiting the restaurant Sei Less ... wrapping up a night of celebrations in a skin-tight denim ensemble, rockin' beige leather highness pumps.

We really don't need to point out the obvious ... but the artist was lookin' good during her night out!

Khalid just confirmed he is gay ... coming out after claiming he was outed.

The R&B hitmaker posted a rainbow flag emoji on his X account Friday night and added, "there yall go. next topic please lol."

Khalid's tweet came after another singer seemingly outed him on social media ... and fans were quick to reply to Khalid's post.

BossMan DLow is up for Spotify's RapCaviar Rookie Of The Year -- an honor he says was 5 years in the making on his end!!!

Accolades don't come cheap -- neither do his sneakers from Lanvin. It's Big Zaaa!!!

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with the red-hot rookie from Florida on Thursday, where we got acquainted with his grind.

Ice Cube unleashed his 11th studio album "Man Down" on Friday, featuring several hip hop titans -- but probably none more appreciative than Killer Mike!!!

The reigning Grammy Rap Album of the Year winner lent his lyrical touch to Cube's "Man Down" closer "Ego Maniacs" with Busta Rhymes, and told his fans the collab checked off a bucket list mark ... he's been holding onto since the 8th grade!!!

Cube's socially aware lyrics inspired a nation of millions to rap with an edge, KM included ... and it was only a matter of time before the cosmos connected them.

Kanye West made a music video shoot more like a porn set ... according to model Jenn An, who claims he made her gag and choked her until she blacked out.

Jenn, who appeared in cycle 13 of "America's Next Top Model," filed a federal lawsuit against West, alleging the 2010 shoot for his and La Roux's "In For the Kill" music video took a horrible turn after he picked her out of a lineup of women.

He allegedly said, "Give me the Asian girl" ... and then started filming a scene at NYC's Chelsea Hotel which she found humiliating and dangerous.

A$AP Ferg got very personal on his new album "Darold" and come to find out, several of his fans can relate!!!

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with Ferg at LAX on Wednesday and he says fans have been flooding his DMs ... pouring their eyes out over his song "Pool."

The Harlem-bred rapper details being sexually assaulted as a child on the track, named after the local swimming pool where the incident happened.

Diddy is in a New York courtroom, fighting to get out of jail on a $50 million bond as he awaits trial on sex trafficking and racketeering charges ... though he'll have to spend at least one more weekend in jail.

The Bad Boy Records founder appeared in court Friday without shackles ... going before a judge and pushing for his release.

It's the fourth time Diddy's trying to get out on bail ... after being denied three times. However, the judge just adjourned court for the day -- and a decision on bail will be rendered next week.

Diddy's family is supporting him in court as he tries to get out of jail, while he awaits trial in his criminal case ... with 6 of his children making the trip to a packed Manhattan federal courtroom today.

Sarah Chapman, who shares a daughter with Diddy, was the first one to walk in ... with their daughter Chance not far behind in a second group of family members.

Also accompanying Chance ... Diddy's 17-year-old twin daughters, Jesse and D'Lila, who he had with the late Kim Porter. Quincy Brown, Kim's son who Diddy adopted, also walked in with Diddy's daughters.

3:26 PM PT -- Snoop Dogg has admitted to Kendrick Lamar that it was indeed the edibles that caused him to even be halfway curious about Drake's "Taylor Made Freestyle" with the artificial Tupac Shakur.

Looks like it won't happen again ... Snoop gave Dot's "GNX" album a perfect 5-mic rating!!!

Kendrick Lamar called Drake's "Taylor Made Freestyle" a blatant disrespect of Tupac Shakur's legacy and is floored that Snoop Dogg even gave it the time of day!!!

On the opening record "wacced out murals" of his new "GNX" album, Kendrick shared his disappointment in BOTH Lil Wayne AND Snoop for their roles amid the 2024 Rap Wars.

Wayne went on a world tour complaining about missing out on headlining Super Bowl LIX in his New Orleans hometown and never publicly said he was happy for K. Dot.

Cardi B has threatened drastic action in order to secure good behavior from her kids at school ... going after what they care about most -- their iPads.

The rapper posted on her Instagram Stories Thursday, where she revealed she had a couple parent-teacher conferences coming up ... and noted how she planned to keep her kids with ex Offset -- including daughter Kulture, who's 6, and son Wave, who's 3 -- on their toes.

She warned in the video ... "I better hear some good s*** or else ... iPads will be broken, phones will be thrown in the garbage, TVs will be disconnected, cables will be turned off. I am not playing. I am that type of mom."

Drake fired off his final shot at Kendrick Lamar during their rap battle in the form of "The Heart Pt. 6" -- a title hijacked from K. Dot's long-running series ... but the Compton MC is saying "aht aht aht" ... that storyline belongs to me!!!

On his surprise drop album "GNX," Kendrick conjured up his own "heart pt. 6" ... totally ignoring the slander heard on Drake's version, instead detailing his career origin story with Top Dawg Entertainment.

Kendrick's track bridges a sample of SWV's "Use Your Heart" and he shares Illmatic tales down memory lane ... such as ScHoolboy Q gradually learning to rap, and President Punch running their triangle offense better than Phil Jackson ever could.

He also took the blame for sabotaging the Black Hippy project -- the in-house supergroup he, Q, Ab-Soul and Jay Rock were supposed to launch, but their solo careers all took priority.

We spoke to Rock about BH last year and he did say the ball was in Dot's court, so his "heart pt. 6" lyrics measure up.

The union seems like a distant memory now ... DJ Akademiks is currently giving Ab-Soul crap for not hitting the Billboard 200 for his recent album, which Kendrick wasn't a part of.
