Lil Wayne Claims He Hasn’t Eaten Fast Food In 20 Years And Somehow Doesn’t Even Know What McDonald’s Smells Like
Yesterday, Lil Wayne unveiled the new track “Kant Nobody” with a posthumous feature from the late DMX. He’s also been busy getting his own character in NBA 2K23.
He’s living the life, so much so that it appears he hasn’t had fast food in literal decades. At least it seems like that’s what admitted in his new interview on Zane Lowe’s Apple Music.
“When I was 19 I moved to Miami and my mom is a chef and she was very happy for the move because New Orleans is crazy. One thing she really wanted me to do was get a personal chef,” he said. “So from the age of 19 to now, I’ve always had a personal chef. I haven’t eaten any fast food forever. I don’t know what McDonald’s smell like. Only Gyms I know is Jim Jones. I can’t lift a weight. I don’t do no workout.”
Meanwhile NLE Choppa recently sang Lil Wayne’s praises and gave him flowers. “I feel like accolades never define the artist,” he said to the iconic rapper. “Personally, I feel like you supposed to have way more accolades coming your way. You should be to a point in time to where you just receiving accolades. I think it was a few days ago, you won an award. So, I just wanted to present my own accolade, physically giving you flowers and a note to let you know how much you inspired me and impacted my life. I have a skateboard too that I signed. I know you like to skateboard.”

G Herbo, Yung Bleu & Murda Beatz Get Deep On “Raining”
G Herbo is officially back with his first offering of the year. The Chicago-bred artist ditches the drill rap this time around, however, as he reflects on a past relationship. Yung Bleu also appears on “Raining” making the Murda Beatz and Cardiak-produced track a touch more melodic. This is the first time the pairing has been featured on a track together.
“You should be loving me, daily / Baby, where you at? I miss you f**king me, crazy / Now you with that sucker, he ain’t nothing like me, you crazy / Remember when you couldn’t get enough of me, s**t crazy,” Herbo starts. He continues to reflect on their whirlwind romance throughout the verse, with Yung Bleu chiming in on the song’s captivating chorus. The two artists also get a little raunchy in the lyrics that follow as they reminisce on X-rated activities with their seemingly toxic lovers.
G Herbo & Yung Bleu Are Emotional On “Raining”
“I be biting on your back like a Great Dane / Our 7th time having space like we in Uranus / Still gon’ put it in her face, finger in her anus,” the Survivor’s Remorse rapper recites. Yung Bleu comes in shortly after on a similar tone as he professes the love he has for his leading lady. “You must’ve been insecure when he had you / But I’m tryna carve you out like a statue,” Bleu chants. “You say fingers in your mmm, it relax you / Or suckin’ on your oooh, like a vacuum / Now it’s raining on my window…” The song is currently streaming on Apple Music and Spotify
It’s becoming clear G Herbo’s ruthless ways have come to a halt. The Cinematic signee is currently dating Instagram influencer Tania Williams, who he shares two children with. He briefly spoke on their relationship and how it began during his appearance on Yung Miami’s show, Caresha Please. In the highly-viewed interview, Herbo admits to cheating on the mother of his first child with his new lover. “I was young,” he tells Miami. “I was dumb. I ain’t know no better, man, I was just doin’ s**t.”
Quotable Lyrics:
“It’s raining on my window, but I can’t see the clouds
I want more than affection, you haven’t been close to me in a while
It’s raining on my windows, but my tears are running dry
What you feel inside is way too common, it’s gon’ be alright”

Kyrie Irving & Luka Doncic Secure First Win Together
When Kyrie Irving was traded to the Dallas Mavericks just a few weeks ago, fans were curious to see how that would work out. Overall, Irving is someone who has had some issues when it comes to gelling with his teammates. However, he is now playing with Luka Doncic, who some feel is an MVP candidate. One would have to assume that these two would become a dynamic duo. Sure, Luka might be ball dominant, but he has never truly had a superstar teammate. Now that he has that, Mavericks fans should be very excited about a potential postseason run.
Unfortunately, their first two games together weren’t amazing. While Luka and Kyrie had solid individual performances, the team lost two games in a row. Subsequently, the All-Star break came which allowed both players to get some time off. Furthermore, it gave them some time to hang out off of the court. As it turns out, this worked out perfectly for them as on Thursday night, they secured their first win together.
Kyrie & Luka Pop Off
While playing against the lowly San Antonio Spurs, Luka and Kyrie were able to combine for 51 points. Luka finished with 28 while Kyrie had 23. Overall, it was a blowout win for the Mavericks who were playing against a Spurs team that has lost 15 in a row. Throughout the game, Kyrie and Luka showcased some great chemistry, and it is clear that they are going to dominate for the rest of the year. Whether or not they can make a deep playoff run still remains to be seen. After all, the West is a deep conference right now, and it would be a very tough road to the NBA Finals.
This is a bit of an experiment for the Mavericks. Kyrie is going to become a free agent this summer, and he could choose to leave the franchise entirely. If that is the case, then the Mavs have just one shot to make this work. Overall, this trade was an indication that Dallas is going all in. Let us know whether or not you think it will pay off, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the sports world.

Doja Cat’s New Thirst Traps Reveal Her Devilish Side
Of the many female artists who have our attention right now, none of them have range quite like Doja Cat. The California native has frequently been known to break the internet with her antics, whether that be typing out a ridiculous tweet and pressing send or showing off her toned body in a thirst trap. In the past week, we’ve seen plenty of both from her across social media.
The Planet Her hitmaker hasn’t been putting out music as of late, though she has teased that a follow-up to her 2021 release is on the way. Rather, she’s been having fun experimenting with her look at Fashion Week and beyond while also entertaining the masses with her strange Twitter posts. Most recently, she had an unusual proposition for her followers that certainly got the internet talking.
Doja’s Online Antics
To start off her week, Doja spent her Sunday (February 19) evening online, trolling as only she can. “Does anyone wanna come over and f*ck my foot?” she publicly inquired, earning upwards of 67K likes. Of course, hundreds of replies poured in too, some of them matching the singer’s hilarious energy while others made it known that they’re on the verge of unfollowing her.
The post is certainly odd, but it’s obviously not out of character for the fashionista to share questionable content on Twitter. Since then, her posts have been equally as salacious in nature. “Trapped under a coffee table rn… Stepbro pls,” she wrote on Monday (February 20). The next day, her message of choice was “Stupidity is a sign of youth and you all look so fresh and young today. <3 Happy Tuesday idiots.”
It’s Her Planet, We’re Just Living On It
On her Instagram feed, Doja continues to capture our attention thanks to a new series of thirst traps. The shoot found her working with celebrity photographer @jpwphoto to reveal her devilish side. In front of a bold red background, the 27-year-old confidently poses in a red lingerie set complete with a heart cutout in the middle of her crotch.
She also sports red latex gloves, horns, and wings. Rather than the creative makeup looks she’s been sporting lately, Doja rocked a smokey glam beat with ultra-thin eyebrows. Check out more images below, and tell us your thoughts on the recording artist’s sultry look in the comments.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Speaks On LeBron Breaking His Record
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is one of the greatest players in the entire history of the NBA. Overall, many have him as a top-three player ever. In these lists, he is right behind the likes of both LeBron James and Michael Jordan. Although he has six rings to LeBron’s four, there is this consensus that James has had a better career. This is especially true now that LeBron has surpassed Kareem on the all-time scorer’s list. James broke the record only a few weeks ago, and it was an incredible feat that no one ever thought he would accomplish.
Subsequently, there has been chatter about whether or not Kareem is upset with James taking the record. After all, Abdul-Jabbar has been quite critical of LeBron in the past. Although these issues are purely political, there were some fans who couldn’t help but come up with their own theories. During All-Sar weekend, Abdul-Jabbar was able to clear the air on the matter. Below, you can see that the NBA legend spoke with Clutch Points about the record. Overall, he seems to be very much at peace with it.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Speaks
“Well, I was glad that I could be there and demonstrate,” Kareem explained. “It wasn’t a problem. I was happy to hand the record over to him. I guess that was symbolic in the handing in the ball.” Kareem had held the record for 40 years, and it was largely thought that it could not be broken. However, LeBron has showcased some of the most impressive longevity in NBA history. He is still averaging close to 30 points per game, in his 20th season. That said, he will likely become the first player to eclipse the 40,000-point mark.
Regardless of how Kareem Abdul-Jabbar may feel about LeBron, he cannot deny that James is a once-in-a-lifetime talent. Even today, we are witnessing greatness from the Lakers star. It has been truly special to see, and we hope that James plays well into his 40s. Once Bronny gets into the league, it will truly be a full-circle moment. Be sure to stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the sports world.
