Young Thug is apologizing on wax ... using a new song to say sorry to Drake, 21 Savage, Lil Baby, his girlfriend Mariah the Scientist and more.

Thugger just dropped a new track titled "Man I Miss My Dogs" ... and it's essentially him apologizing to different people in his life for everything he said on his leaked jail calls.

Young Thug begins with a message to his GF ... telling Mariah the Scientist one of his biggest fears in life is losing her to the internet.

Ne-Yo’s life isn’t 3D, it’s 4D ... girlfriends and all, which he says makes his life seem like one big blockbuster!

We spotted the singer Wednesday rolling out of Wally’s in L.A. with his 4 leading ladies -- Cristina, Arielle, Moneii, and Bri -- and he tells TMZ don’t expect a reality show anytime soon ... he’s keeping this love story off-screen, no matter how binge-worthy it looks.

Ne-Yo shut it down -- saying his world’s already a full-blown movie, so why downgrade to reality TV when he’s living the epic on his own terms?

President Donald Trump is still deliberating whether or not to send National Guard troops to Chicago -- but G Herbo is telling him to round up the troops ... it's time to clean up the streets!!!

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with the Chicago-bred rap star at LAX on Wednesday, and he told us straight up he's all for military action if it'll keep the kids and women out of harm's way.

Herbo tells us he's a tax-paying citizen and you can hear the growth in his music ... his "Went Legit" single is already certified Gold after just several months on the streams.

Drake snuck a subtle shot at Kai Cenat's hairline after the top Twitch streamer trashed his new song on his "Mafiathon 3" stream ... and Kai's demanding answers!!!

Kai's chat tipped him off that Drake had given his forehead and tattered braids the spotlight treatment via an unflattering photo wedged in between his latest photo dump from his adventures in France.

The international roasting caused Kai to sulk at his desk as the Undertaker's gong rang unrelentingly, and he eventually had to walk away from the computer.

Cardi B and her hairstylist Tokyo Stylez are Galore magazine's new cover girls -- and they partied the NYC night away to celebrate in a room wall-to-wall with celebs!!!

The shindig went down on Tuesday night at Little Ways in New York, and Cardi, who's been busy these past few weeks juggling an album release and legal battle, was smiling like a winner draped in a fire-red bodysuit that hugged her frame.

Cardi kicked off the week by shutting down US Open after-parties and she kept the same energy for her and Tokyo's big night.

Kanye West is being ordered to sit down for a deposition in a lawsuit filed against him by a former employee at his Donda Academy ... and the judge set a strict deadline.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ, a judge in Los Angeles on Tuesday ordered Kanye to appear for a deposition within 30 days ... and Yeezy has to show up in person to answer questions.

The depo is for a lawsuit a man named Trevor Phillips filed against Kanye in April 2024 ... in the suit, Phillips claims he worked for Kanye at Donda and says Ye frequently shared antisemitic views with staffers and once announced he wanted to shave students heads and intended to put a jail at the school.

Kodak Black filmed himself driving down the I-95 in Miami while appearing to sip cough syrup through a straw ... but his attorney says it was all just a gag!!!

The incident was captured on video that went viral ... it shows Kodak behind the wheel of the car with his bare chest exposed while bragging about "sippin' dat drank raw."

Kodak talks some more gibberish and flashes a bottle, which appears to be containing promethazine, but it's not totally clear and we'll tell yuh why. Promethazine is prescription cough syrup that can be used as a drug called Lean.

Cardi B is adding quite a bit of fuel to those raging pregnancy rumors ... publicly declaring on national TV that she wants more kids.

Check it out ... the rapper stopped by "The Jennifer Hudson Show" Tuesday, where she talked about her home life with kids Kulture, 7, Wave, 4, and Blossom, 1.

While she joked about having too many kids at home, Cardi told Jennifer Hudson she definitely plans to add to her brood ... as it's part of her retirement plan.

Offset chopped it up with TMZ Hip Hop today about how well his rap career is booming this year ... his "Kiari" album debuted in the top 20 to rave reviews, and he's on tour with NBA YoungBoy!!!

The superstar tells our own Big Down Under podcast host Charlie Cotton that he has some side gigs lined up for him, but he was back at LAX after completing some side missions of his own.

Offset was just in NYC, where he and JID performed their "Bodies" collab -- with a special inclusion with veteran rock band Drowning Pool, whose own classic song was sampled on the new version.

Fabolous found himself in quite the "lituation" last night performing at Jeeter's grand introduction into New York State -- all because he had to keep the outdoor noise to a minimum!!!

Jeeter is the top-selling cannabis pre-roll brand in North America, and the superstar rapper was on hand to commemorate the launch while also connecting with the company's founders.

A source connected to the event tells TMZ Hip Hip that Manhattan locals near the Somewhere Nowhere rooftop, where Fab performed, began to complain about the noise and we're told Fab and DJ Boof complied to keep the music turned down to optimal levels.

D4vd -- a popular singer with millions of streams -- is alive and well after a chopped up and heavily decomposed body was found in a Tesla registered to him that was sitting inside a Hollywood tow yard ... we've confirmed the body isn't his, and he's OK.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... police are the ones who informed D4vd his Tesla was in an impound with a dead body inside, and he had no idea there was anything untoward going on.

We're told D4vd is fully cooperating with police as the investigation moves forward.

Warren G's fed up with young guns telling OG rappers their time is up, because according to his earnings, his classic, "Regulate," duet with Nate Dogg is played globally every damn day!

TMZ Hip Hop spoke to the G-Funk visionary about his upcoming hip hop moves when he revealed his newly acquired minor-league baseball team would be named "Regulators" ... and he never gets tired of hearing the track.

It was a clear black night and a clear white moon when Warren and the late Nate D-O-double-G recorded "Regulate" for Suge Knight's 1994 "Above The Rim" soundtrack.

Over 30 years and 2 platinum plaques later, Warren says he sees firsthand how the younger generations are still gravitating toward the record.

Expect T-Pain to turn heads even more than usual around Atlanta ... thanks to his new custom-built Alpha Ford Raptor -- courtesy of the guys from Truck Dynasty!!!

Marlon Wayans has a very personal reason why his and brother Shawn's box office blockbuster "White Chicks" will NEVER get a follow-up ... and that's because getting a full face-beat takes too freakin' long!!!

Kai Cenat had Marlon on his Mafiathon 3 stream and brought up "White Chicks 2," taking Marlon down horror memory lane, spending 7 hours in the make-up chair all to turn into a bad bish.

Marlon explained that the 7-hour makeup job was in addition to the 14 hours of the daily production and the 1 hour it took to remove the costumes.

Master P wants the smoke with Shaquille O'Neal ... telling TMZ Sports he's hoping to set up a college basketball matchup between their two schools -- University of New Orleans and Sacramento State!!

We spoke with Miller while he was busy hosting the "TMZ After Dark" tour over the weekend ... and during a brief pause in all the fun, the rap legend -- and new president of basketball operations at UNO -- explained how he's trying to set up a competition with the Hornets, as the Big Aristotle is their GM and his son Shaqir is on the roster.

"If y'all want to see that, y'all need to call the NCAA and say, 'Look, man, at least let us scrimmage each other this year,'" P said. "I think that'll be big for the culture in New Orleans. Shaq and Master P at the University of New Orleans and University of Sacramento."

Drake's made incredible music over the years, just at the expense of his top producers, OVO Noah "40" Shebib and Boi-1da's love for one another ... so claims Stat Quo.

The former Dr. Dre protégé recently appeared on Justin Hunte's "Culture United" stream alongside Glasses Malone and several other podcasters, where he referred to the Canadian's behavior as "two-faced" while discussing Young Thug's leaked phone call explosion.

Stat told the chat he saw the Canucks buckin' in real time because 40 and Boi-1da hated one another for years -- and sent a shout out to Boi-1da as a half-apology for spilling the beans.
