Jameis Winston has been having a solid season as the starting quarterback of the New Orleans Saints. While he has been inconsistent at times, there is no doubt that he has been a solid replacement for the retired Drew Brees. Last night, Winston had his toughest test yet as the Saints took on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who have been rolling under Tom Brady.
In the end, the Saints came through with the win, however, it was QB Trevor Siemian who saw the vast majority of the snaps. This is because Winston suffered a brutal knee injury in the first quarter after being brought down by Devin White.
After the game, there was a lot of concern surrounding Winston’s injury, especially when you consider how his leg twisted so forcefully. Saints head coach Sean Payton was asked about the entire ordeal, and as you will see in the clip below, he isn’t too optimistic. The coach described the injury as “significant” and that Winston will need to be evaluated this week to see the entire extent of the damage.
These are the kinds of injuries you hate to see, and we hope that Winston is able to recover soon. Stay tuned to HNHH as we will continue to offer updates on this developing story.
On the Damien Hirst-designed album cover for Certified Lover Boy, Drake included multiple pregnant women emojis, quite literally coming through with a playlist of baby-making music. With the project slated to spend another week at #1, the 35-year-old rapper may be celebrating with his latest jewelry pick-up, showing off an iced-out chain on social media with every emoji that you can possibly think of.
The gorgeous new piece was commissioned by NYC Luxury, and it shows a colorful collection of different Apple emoji designs, which will be placed around Drizzy’s neck. Of course, the pregnant woman emoji is on there, and so is the purple devil face, the heartbreak emoji, a tongue, a bag of cash, an owl, and a cheeky eggplant.
Seeing as though it was Halloween last night, it was a given that there would be some uncanny occurrences in the crowd. Case in point, LeBron had a doppelganger sitting relatively close to the floor and he was caught on camera staring down LeBron who was engrossed in the game.

The lookalike was immediately noticed by social media, and he even went viral. Everyone was talking about it to the point that LeBron had to weigh in on everything that went down. As you can see in the tweet below, LeBron was both amused and flattered over the whole thing.
“AYO!! True definition of 2 places at the same damn time!!” LeBron wrote. “Somebody tell Pat C if he wants to be me for Halloween just ask me. LOL.”
Perhaps the lookalike was even a good luck charm for LeBron, who proved himself once again that age doesn’t mean anything when you’re the best at what you do.
Ye’sDonda seemingly took forever to come out. The project arrived more than a year after it was originally announced and after three album listening sessions held in major stadiums in Atlanta and Chicago. Thankfully, the wait came to an end at the end of August when the rapper released the project complete with 27 songs and guest appearances from Jay-Z, Lil Durk, Young Thug, Roddy Ricch, The LOX, Lil Baby, The Weeknd, Playboi Carti, Kid Cudi, Don Toliver, Ty Dolla Sign, and more. Two months after Donda was released, Ye is seemingly gearing up to release a deluxe version of the album.
A Twitter user shared two screenshots of teasers for a deluxe reissue for Donda on Twitter. The first appear on the platform’s Italy page and was captioned, “A deluxe version of Yeezus’ tenth recording miracle,” while the second appeared on Apple Music’s Germany page. Ye or anyone in his camp has to confirm when the deluxe would arrive or whether or not one is in the works in the first place.
This comes after the rapper’s Donda stem players were finally delivered to fans who purchased it. The device allows “customize any song” and control vocals, drums, bass, and samples, isolate certain parts of a song, as well as add effects. The stem players were also delivered three unreleased songs — “Life Of The Party,” “Up From The Ashes,” and “Never Abandon Your Family” — in addition to Ye’s complete tenth album.

While he spent more than a decade under Rick Ross’ Maybach Music Group, Wale, who just released his Folarin II album, has called a few other labels home throughout his career. This includes Interscope, Atlantic, and Warner Records, where he resides today. Another place he called home at one point was Jay-Z’s Roc Nation, which served as his management team since 2009. However, during his 2013 What Dreams May Come Tour with fellow rapper and good friend J. Cole, Wale was pushed to leave Roc Nation after he came to a shocking realization during the string of shows, something he revealed during an appearance on the Drink Champs podcast.
“What happened was, I was in the Hov cycle for a long time,” he said on the podcast. “There was a time that I was on tour with J. Cole. At the time, I was opening for him. They said it was a co-headlining tour, but whatever, I was opening for him, and it was an elaborate stage and this that and the third.”
He continued, “And somebody in my circle told me, ‘You’re losing 5 grand every time you get on stage. Not only are you’re not breaking even, you’re losing money.’ Me, at that point in my life, I forget what city we was in but I was on the bus and I got an offer to do a tour with two other artists. And I wanted to go with Cole because that’s my brother and we just did the Hov tour.”
At this point, Wale knew a decision had to be made between staying or exiting the tour. “I could literally be hosting clubs and making this a night,” he noted. “I just had a meltdown for real and I remember whatever city I was in, there were three days left and I just quit the tour. I just quit.” Wale added, “If I was touring by myself, I could be bussin’ it crazy every night. So I kinda just had a meltdown and I didn’t know who to call, my lawyer or my accountant. The next day, called somebody there and they gave me this option or that option.”
Despite his frustrations, Wale maintains that it’s been nothing but love between him and Jay-Z since the touring incident. “It’s been all love ever since but I wasn’t privy to this f*ckin’ music industry sh*t,” Wale admitted. ” I just knew, this many people in the room, we can make something happen. Jay’s still my idol, still my favorite rapper. I still got all the love for all of them. I was just a little bit early in this sh*t though.”
Drake’s sixth album Certified Lover Boy has spent the second-most weeks at No. 1 in 2021. It trails Morgan Wallen’s Dangerous: The Double Album, as that project held on to the top spot for ten consecutive weeks. While Drake’s reign isn’t that impressive, it’s still noteworthy in its own right. The rapper has already collected four non-consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 which began with 631,000 units sold in its first week on the chart, the largest amount for any album released in 2021. Now, more than a month later, Certified Lover Boy is still holding on to the throne on the Billboard 200.
A week after Young Thug earned the second No. 1 album of his career with Punk, an album Drake appears on, Certified Lover Boy reclaimed the top spot on the Billboard 200 dated November 6. It took the No. 1 spot thanks to 74,000 units sold, a number comprised of 73,000 streaming equivalent album units while pure album sales accounted for less than 1,000 units. With its fifth week at No. 1, Certified Lover Boy ties Drake’s 2018 album Scorpion for the second-most weeks spent atop the charts. Both albums fall behind his 2016 effort Views, which posted 13 weeks at No. 1.
Other highlights on the chart this week include Moneybagg Yo’s A Gangsta’s Pain at No. 6, thanks to its newly-released deluxe reissue, and Lana Del Rey’s Blue Bannisters, which checks in at No. 8 to give Del Rey the eighth top-10 album of her career.
The last time the world received a Sunday Service concert from Ye, who legally changed his name from Kanye West a few weeks ago, the rapper was just a few months removed from his 2019 album Jesus Is King. Fast-forward 18 months, Ye returned with a new Sunday Service concert on Halloween. The event was held on the rooftop of an unknown location and it featured appearances from Marilyn Manson, Justin Bieber, and Roddy Ricch according to viewers who tuned into the livestream which was broadcast on Triller and Fite TV.

Manson, who was controversially invited onstage by Ye for Chicago’s Donda listening session, and Bieber both lead individual prayers of their own during the service while Roddy Ricch was spotted with the trio in the surrounding crowd. While this was the first official Sunday Service event in 18 months, it marks the first time the group delivered a live performance since DMX’s funeral earlier this year where they performed tracks that included Soul II Soul’s “Keep On Movin’” and Ye’s “Ultralight Beam.”
The performance comes after Ye’s Yeezy brand was hit with a lawsuit. Recently elected LA County District Attorney George Gascón filed the suit on October 22 for the brand for their failure to “ship items within thirty days and failing to provide adequate delay notices” to customers.

Now that Lil Nas X has publicly shared that he’s over trolling Boosie Badazz, a new contender has stepped up to the plate. For her Halloween costume, YouTuber Tasha K put together a look that’s given her an uncanny resemblance to the 38-year-old rapper.
In a clip that’s been receiving tons of attention on The Shade Room, Tasha can be seen wearing an array of chains underneath a puffer jacket, a la Lil Boosie. She looks to have painted facial hair on, and is wearing her hair in a similar style to that of the Louisiana native’s.
The visual shows her impression of the “Badazz,” as she loudly yells “aye” over and over, pulling at her chains. “What’s going on my dogs?! I just couldn’t make my eyes yellow, you know what I’m saying?” the internet sensation yells before erupting into manic laughter and clapping her hands. “How y’all doing?!”
According to her Instagram, Tasha K actually went live in her costume earlier this weekend, performing as the Ghetto Stories actor while streaming to over 14,000 people. The comments have been hyping up her sheer audacity while pointing out just how identical she actually looked to the controversial star.
“Now that’s the twin,” one reply to The Shade Room’s post reads. “She killed this. I hope [he] doesn’t get in his feelings,” another viewer wrote. As you may have heard, things got a little out of hand on Boosie’s Twitter page recently – the “Wipe Me Down” singer sent out a vulgar message to Lil Nas X after the LGBTQ icon trolled him, suggesting that the “INDUSTRY BABY” rapper take his own life.
As of right now, Boosie has yet to respond to Tasha K’s costume, but time will tell if he has an angry message to send her way when he gets wind of the video.
Do you think the YouTuber killed her take on Lil Boosie, or does it need some work? Let us know below.
Latto may have received plenty of praise on her iconic Halloween costumes this weekend, but that didn’t stop the rapper from airing out her grievances on Twitter. In a since-deleted rant, the 22-year-old clapped back at haters who had something to say about her appearance.
Before the posts were gone for good, The Shade Room grabbed receipts and posted them to their Instagram account. “N*ggas be on Twitter calling me ugly but asking if they can eat my p*ssy from the back in real life.. aww,” she wrote in one post.
Shortly after, she quote tweeted herself with another message. “Yo UGLY ASS could never get near me anyways I sit on the same rich smooth long pretty d*ck every night tf,” she added. Before long, she was back with more messages for her followers, telling them that the hate she gets on social media is “cap af.”
“I get soooo much love in real life n*ggas is ROCKING shows ON GOD!” the “Big Energy” artist said, before adding “y’all got the white women ‘Big Latto’ jokes tho them be funny.”
While defending her appearance from the harsh words of critics, Latto also took some time to defend her rap skills. The Ohio native retweeted a snippet of her recently released “L.A. Leakers Freestyle” track, writing “N*ggas still saying I ‘can’t rap’ after this & XXL,” followed by a face palm emoji.
Her rant may be gone, but fans of the hitmaker are still able to enjoy Latto’s Halloween posts. This year, she paid homage to “We Belong Together” singer Mariah Carey and legendary model Naomi Campbell’s 1999 Playboy cover. See the sultry looks below.
