‘Mama!’ Offset Surprises His Mother With A Birkin Bag And Much More Inside Of It
Those who have listened to Migos over the years have likely caught themselves yelling their “Mama!” ad-lib randomly throughout the day. The trio, happy to have reached the heights that they have, are very intentional about honoring those who are responsible for them being on the planet, whether through acknowledgment within their songs or tweets. In the latest addition to their maternal respect, Offset took it a step further with massive generosity as he surprised his mother, Latabia Woodward, with a red Birkin bag at a recent Egyptian-themed get-together; but wait, there’s more.
Woodward was pleasantly surprised at the gift, as were all of the attendees, and once the initial hype died down, Offset urged her to follow the instructions of Migos’ 2018 record “Open It Up” where Woodward found $50,000 cash. Cardi B assisted her mother-in-law in removing the content before Offset engaged her in a huge hug with a smile as wide as his fanbase. The video closes with the two dancing along to Cardi B’s 2021 smash “Up.”
It’s a beautiful moment for Offset and Cardi, who have been in a very good place since having their second child Wave Set Cephus together. They appeared on the cover of Essence Magazine with their nine-month-old, in addition to their three-year-old daughter Kulture, and Kalea, Jordan and Kody who Offset conceived with other women before marrying Cardi.
Check out the video of Offset gifting his mother the Birkin and $50,000 above.

Post Malone Borders On Unhinged In The ‘Insane’ Video
This past Friday, Post Malone released his fourth album, Twelve Carat Toothache. The fourteen track collection is a reflection of the “Sunflower” singer’s eclectic tastes and features a number of collaborations including “One Right Now” with The Weeknd, “Cooped Up” with Roddy Rich, “I Like You (A Happier Song)” with Doja Cat, and “Love/Hate Letter To Alcohol” with Fleet Foxes. The album explores the emotional wavelengths we’ve all been riding in the past two pandemic-addled years and it’s never for a lack of honesty from Malone.
Now, the rapper has just released the new video for “Insane,” and it sees Posty bordering on unhinged. In the clip, Malone is barefoot and wearing only his house pants in the evening poolside. He dances maniacally to the track, either mimicking inebriation or feeling himself after knocking back a few. He vigorously smokes a cigarette and puts his hand down the front of his pants multiple times a la Al Bundy. But if he’s teetering in the balance, he’s doing so in a sheerly blissful state throughout. It’s a pure expressionist moment from Posty as he cheekily raps lines like, “I got 20, 30 strippers in the Sprinter van / It’s a little cramped to try to teach me how to dance.”
Watch the video for “Insane ” above.
Twelve Carat Toothache is out now via Republic Records. Listen to it here.

Logic’s ‘Vinyl Days’ Tracklist Is A Hefty 30 Songs Long
It looks like Logic is going to have plenty of new material to perform on his upcoming Vinyl Verse Tour with Wiz Khalifa. In addition to the previously released singles “Therapy Music,” “Orville,” and “Bleed It,” his upcoming album Vinyl Days will host a whopping 30 tracks, closing out his time at Def Jam with one hell of a bang. Seriously, we know albums have been trending longer for the sake of streaming algorithms, but this is either ridiculous or impressive — depending on your opinion of the Maryland rapper.
Among the guests featured on the album are rap legends, contemporary stars, and underground stalwarts, making it one of the most well-rounded representations of the music business today. Action Bronson, AZ, Blu & Exile, Curren$y, DJ Premier, The Game, Langston Bristol, Nezi Momodu, Royce Da 5’9, Russ, RZA, and Wiz Khalifa all make appearances, along with Bobby Boy Records signees iamJMARS, Big Lenbo, and C Dot Castro.
Vinyl Days will be Logic’s seventh album and his first since announcing his “retirement” in 2020 — a retirement he rescinded months just months later with a string of collab tracks alongside Madlib, the single “Vaccine,” and possibly a mixtape as Doctor Destruction, who fans believe was just a barely disguised Logic all along.

Skip Bayless Reveals His Pick For Greatest NBA Finals Series
Skip Bayless is a staunch hater of LeBron James. Every time the Los Angeles Lakers star does something good, you can be sure that Skip is going to find a way to twist it into something negative. Not to mention, Skip tends to play favorites when it comes to people like Michael Jordan and Kevin Durant.
With that being said, it should come as a huge shock that Skip would actually give LeBron some props when it comes to his heroics against Skip’s favorite team, the San Antonio Spurs. Recently, Bayless was asked which NBA Finals series he believes is the greatest of all time which led him to recount a very painful time in his life.

As you can see down below, Skip chose the 2013 NBA Finals. This is the series in which LeBron’s legacy was somewhat saved by a later corner three by Ray Allen who forced overtime in Game 6. This won LeBron his second Finals series in a row and it ultimately hurt the feelings of Skip who was desperately hoping for the Spurs to close it out. In Skip’s eyes, this was a wildly entertaining back and forth series that ultimately showed LeBron’s greatness while also providing the best of what the sport has to offer.
HNHH recently compiled a list of the greatest NBA Finals series of all time and this was certainly on there. You can check out that list, right here.
Benny The Butcher Spits Over K-Dot’s “We Cry Together” On New Single Dedicated To Buffalo Mass Shooting
American headlines have been riddled with tragedy after tragedy in recent weeks, with the mass shooting that took place at a grocery store in Buffalo, New York leaving 10 dead followed by a similar incident at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas, and another one in Philadelphia.
With so much sadness surrounding us, many have been looking for a way to help, and thankfully, Benny the Butcher is providing one. On Monday, June 6th, he shared “Welcome to the States,” a YouTube exclusive single that finds him rapping over the beloved beat from Kendrick Lamar’s Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers hit, “We Cry Together.”
Rather than emulate a toxic relationship, as K-Dot did with his guest, Taylour Paige, Benny rapped about how senseless gun violence in America has made it a less than pleasant place to be, particularly for Black people.
“Benny’s politically charged lyrics aim to raise money for those affected by the tragic mass shooting that took place on May 14th at Tops Supermarket,” the video’s caption reads, already having earned over 1K likes in just an hour.
As TMZ notes, The Butcher and his Black Soprano Family have also connected with Kat and Nolan Cartwright, who helped them design a limited edition t-shirt drop that will see 100% of the proceeds going to the Buffalo Survivors Fund – get yours here, while supplies last, and stream “Welcome to the States” below.
Quotable Lyrics:
Welcome to the States, where we dying of our skin colour and race
Ideologies formed on hate, now the grocery stores ain’t safe

Broncos To Be Sold For This Staggering Amount
For the last year or so, it has been common knowledge that the Denver Broncos would eventually be sold. The current ownership group is looking to pass things off to someone new and there has been a ton of interest from various parties. After all, the Broncos are a historic team and anyone would want to get in on the NFL where franchises continue to go up in value.
Kanye West and Antonio Brown seemed interested in the team but it looks like they lost out. In a new report from Forbes, it was revealed that billionaire Walmart heir Rob Walton will get the team with a winning bid of $4.5 billion, which is a pretty large amount all things considered.

Reporters like Adam Schefter are claiming that the Forbes report is actually quite premature. It is being said that there is still a second round of bids that need to be dealt with first and that no frontrunner has been crowned just yet. These conflicting reports are quite interesting, however, it could just be that the Broncos want to control the narrative as they have a lot riding on this sale.
This is still a developing story so stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest news and updates from around the NFL world.

Doja Cat Poses For Photos In A Barbie-Pink Bikini & Tons Of Accessories
This summer, Doja Cat is taking us to Planet Her via her Instagram page, which has been loaded with glamorous snapshot after snapshot as of late. After stunning in Schiaparelli at the 2022 Billboard Music Awards, she went on to post up in a gorgeous blue outfit from Alexandre Vauthier followed by a series of amazing designer looks for her Elle Magazine cover feature.
The songstresses’ latest upload, though, is much barer, consisting of just the tiny pink g-string bikini that she modelled over on Twitter at the end of May, coupled with some very unique accessories.

To contrast the colour of her bathing suit, Doja had icy blue eyeshadow applied across her lid, reaching all the way up to her brow bone. Her hair was slicked back into two high buns, with cute plastic flowers and clips added to match the rest of her look’s vibe.
A padlock and key, a Bic lighter, kitten keychains, a padlock, and more flowers were among the tiny pieces visible on the “Ain’t Shit” hitmaker’s top. Around her neck, she wore various chains layered in a haphazard manner – a dollar sign, a Hollywood star, and a Playboy bunny were among the most obvious pieces.
When she’s not appeasing her 24.1 million IG followers with beautiful new photos, Doja Cat has been hard at work on her highly anticipated fourth studio album, following 2021’s Planet Her, 2019’s Hot Pink, and 2018’s Amala.
During her Elle profile, the 26-year-old revealed that her forthcoming project will include “mostly rap music” – read more about that here, and let us know if you’re excited to hear new music from Doja in the comment section below.
Solange’s Son Julez Smith Previews Rap Song
Solange’s son is living out his musical dreams.
Daniel Julez Smith has been spending time in the studio and appears to be pursuing a rap career. The 17-year-old put his flow on display in a TikTok video, which finds him rapping about “packing heat” and even shouting out Future.
“I’m trying to feed the game to ni**as, but they always think it’s sweet / Just like Future said a while ago, the feds just did a sweep,” he raps over a drill beat in the clip.
@jeluzsmith
But when your mother is Solange and your aunt and uncle are Beyoncé and JAY-Z, you have big shoes to fill. Social media was quick to remind Julez of his musical lineage.
“the music genes really wasnt passed down,” commented one user, while another added, “how do u have solange as a mother and beyonce and jay-z as aunt and uncle and u come up with this.”
Julez: Hey uncle, I wanna be a rapper like you

It’s unclear if Julez is planning to release more music or if he’s just testing the waters. If music doesn’t work out, Julez may have a career in basketball. He attends the TJ Ford Basketball Academy and regularly shows off his impressive hoop skills on TikTok.
