Charleston White Claims To Be Responsible For Bricc Baby’s Arrest

by

Charleston White recently hopped on social media to let followers know that he was behind the arrest of Bricc Baby. White explained that the rapper had a “$10,000 stack on his head,” which he says he had his eye on.

“I made a federal report, N***a,” White explains, “First I called Houston and made the report to Houston.” He then reveals that a friend of his who works in law enforcement assisted him in making the report. “He’s now going around telling all the gang information,” he claims. “The feds see he’s got a loose lip,” White continues, “So he may give up some information.” “I’m telling you the honest to God truth,” he insists, “It’s what I did.”

Charleston White Says He Just Wanted A “Bag”

“All I wanted was a bag,” White continues, flashing his “special forces” badge. Charleston White shared his thoughts on another rapper’s arrest earlier this month. After Boosie Badazz was taken into custody following a court appearance on June 14, White took to social media to weigh in. He told Boosie, “Now, God done also gave you what you asked for. You want to be a hero to the streets? You want to be a street prophet? So God needs a Daniel. And who better to play Daniel than you?” “Since you so muthaf**king gangsta and you got all these gangsta codes and ethics, put your suit on like Melle Mel, ni**a, ’cause you ’bout to be sentenced,” he claimed.

Last month, White also accused Finesse2Tymes of child neglect, reporting him to officials. “I wanna make a report of child neglect and child endangerment,” he said on the phone call to police, “I got a video that was sent to me that was made by this child online making threats.” He went on to tell officials, “There’s videos of this child in the clubs at night with convicts, thugs around drugs and guns, and the kid’s name is Lil King. He’s a popular little rapper, so I have a video that I can send you that you guys can really pull up on YouTube called ‘Lil King Goes In On Charleston White.’”

Keyshia Cole Says John Singleton Was Supposed To Do Her Biopic

Trailer for Keyshia Cole's Biopic Produced by Lifetime Released

Keyshia Cole deserves all her flowers, and now fans are getting to know her in the most vulnerable way possible. 

On Thursday, June 21st, the Bay Area native celebrated the release of her new biopic titled Keyshia Cole: This Is My Story, which releases on Lifetime this Saturday, June 25th. This serves as Keyshia’s long-awaited acting debut, playing herself in the film while detailing her journey from the streets of Oakland to becoming the multi-Platinum selling artist and television personality she is today.

At the end of the screening, a personal note from Keyshia pops up on the screen stating, “Mommy this movie is for you. You will forever be my inspiration.” The biopic showcases Keyshia’s relationship with her mom, who was addicted to crack and struggled to stay sober despite Keyshia’s bubbling career — as well as the fact that Keyshia has no idea who her biological father is.

Keyshia states, ”I’ve seen the film five times, so I’ve done a lot of crying and reflecting. For the most part, it’s a reflection of my life and my love I have for my mom. Hate that it ended the way that it did. But the truth is, this is my life.” 

The “Love” singer also reveals the backstory on how the film came into fruition.

“Lifetime was calling for a little while,” she states. “When I did the VERZUZ, they were reaching out about doing the movie. We didn’t do it at that time. Shortly after, my mom had passed. They reached back out like ‘yo, this is some things that’s happened.’ My dad passed after that, then my dog 14 years passed. Okay, my best friend too? Gotcha. We decided to capture that during that time, but we were trying to do the movies when I first got signed to Interscope. John Singleton, we sat down with him and was supposed to do the movie. That didn’t happen then.”

Keyshia went on to joke that they didn’t hire John Singleton because she wanted to play herself, in which he told her she didn’t have to play herself. She also takes a moment to remember him, stating, “rest in peace John Singleton.”

Attendees were also surprised to hear that Keyshia Cole hated her biggest song, “Love,” when she wrote it.

“I hated it, because I didn’t think that I was really good at writing slow records. But I took my little CD player and sat in the corner, all my friends were drinking. We were in Malibu, I had linked up with some rich chicks out here. They were doing their thing, I sat over there in the corner and I wrote the record. Everybody loved it, but I don’t know. I didn’t like it.”

The craziest part was when Keyshia said the amazing signature riff was an accident. The skip in her voice was a mess up, but she was advised to do it repeatedly.”

Who Is Ice Spice Signed To?

Ice Spice is having quite the year. Last summer, she laid the groundwork for superstardom with her viral hits, “Munch (Feelin’ U)” and “Bikini Bottom.” This year, she’s earned a top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 with her PinkPantheress collaboration, “Boy’s A Liar, Pt. 2,” and has collaborated with the likes of Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj.

Given her rapid rise to fame, fans have been curious about the team behind her, helping her make the magic happen.

Who is Ice Spice signed to?

Back in April, there was slight speculation that Ice may have signed to Minaj’s label, Heavy On It, as Minaj shouted out her imprint at the beginning of their remix to “Princess Diana.” However, this was later confirmed to not be the case.

Ice is currently signed to Capitol Records and 10K Projects. And evidently, she got a deal that most artists dream of. In an interview with Billboard, it was revealed that Ice owns her publishing rights and her master recordings, and has full creative control over her sound.

“No one on the label side touches the music,” 10K co-president Zach Friedman said. “There is no traditional A&R with her. No one’s picking beats, no one’s saying, ‘Do this, do that.’ It’s all her. We’re on her schedule.”

This fall, Ice will join Doja Cat and Doechii on Doja’s Scarlet tour.

Cardi B Addresses New Tasha K Rumors About Offset

by

It appears that Tasha K can be down but never out. Despite filing for bankruptcy in the midst of having to pay out $4 million to Cardi, Tasha is still making content about the New York rapper. In her latest viral video, Tasha claims to have proof that Offset cheated on Cardi B. Furthermore, she went as far as to claim that the alleged infidelity happened on Kulture’s bed.

Cardi, who earlier this week slammed Tasha K for invoking the death of Takeoff while bashing Cardi’s feud with the stepson of one of the Titan submersible victims, took to Twitter to address the rumors.

“I’m that type of bitch that a n-gga’s gonna cuff,” Cardi said during a Twitter spaces session. I don’t go outside like. So when I do be outside, their voices start trembling. They be like “H-h-h-h-hi Cardi”. They be nervous because they know I’m a bad bitch.” Cardi went on to essentially declare that if she did leave Offset, she would land on her feet because that’s just the sort of person that she is.

Offset Leaks Cardi’s DM Slides

Not wanting to be left out of the drama, Offset also took to social media. In the case of the former Migos rapper, he was leaking DM slides that Cardi has received. He prefaced the leak with a threat against Tasha, saying he was going to “run into” her.

While he didn’t reveal who had shot their shot at Cardi, it was clear that whoever it was felt that Offset was the problem. Their message was long, rambling, and likely a common sight for a lot of women who have had to deal with “saviors” in their DMs.

“Happy B day !!! Enjoy your day … don’t let none throw you off!!! Somebody sent me an invitation ion no if it’s real or not!! An i be hearing shit but from me to you I’m 1000 on every aspect from the biggest shit down to me even dm you !! I’ll never do no cornball shit or even do none to your make people mad etc !! I hate when a mf ima fucc n-gga cause I really come from a genuine place,” the message read.

Cardi B Superfan Started Nicki Minaj Eviction Petition

Elsewhere on social media, Cardi’s fans are running wild. One fan by the name of Beverly Bardan has seemingly confessed to being behind a recent petition to get Nicki Minaj evicted from her home in Hidden Hills, California.

It was recently reported that a petition to evict Minaj was circulating in the city nestled in the Santa Monica Mountains. The petition centered on the sex offender status of Nicki’s husband Kenneth Petty. It claimed that allowing the couple to stay would drive down property values and pose a risk to local women and children.

However, it was revealed that the local housing association had no knowledge of the petition. Furthermore, someone discovered proof on a Cardi stan account on Twitter. The account admitted to flyer bombing the neighborhood and also starting the petition. Cardi has not commented directly on these allegations.

Young Thug & Drake Plan A “Parade on Cleveland” On Their New Fan Favourite Collab

by

Young Thug and Drake is a duo that’s given us no shortage of fire collaborations over the years. “Way 2 Sexy” with Future and “Sacrifices” with 2 Chainz are definite standouts, though we also frequently revisit “Ice Melts” and “Bubbly” with Travis Scott. Though Thugger remains behind bars as his YSL RICO trial wages on, his team managed to drop an album on his behalf, BUSINESS IS BUSINESS, which has the Atlanta-based artist on top of his game once again.

Opening the 15-track effort is “Parade on Cleveland,” a nearly four-minute long song that features Drake and finds him showing off his singing chops over Metro Boomin’s dreamy production. “Ayy, soon as I’m fresh out the box like a Tic-Tac / We havin’ sex soon as I get my b**ch back / It ain’t gon’ be sexy when I get my lick back,” the 36-year-old cleverly rhymes shortly after the song begins. Later we hear a phone call between Thug and his friend, during which he seemingly throws shade at Gunna.

Drake Opens Young Thug’s BUSINESS IS BUSINESS Album with “Parade on Cleveland”

“Uh, I ain’t doin’ s**t, man / Just pushin’ more Peter, more sweeter, more completer / Than any Peter pusher around,” the So Much Fun hitmaker tells Drake from Cobb County Jail. “See what I’m sayin’, twin? Ha (Ha-ha-ha),” he added as both men laugh. Of course, the track follows Gunna’s a Gift & a Curse album, which put him back in the good graces of many hip-hop heads after being outcast for taking a plea deal in the YSL RICO case.

Learn the lyrics to Young Thug and Drake’s “Parade on Cleveland” in the video above, or add it to your playlist on Spotify/Apple Music. Who has your favourite feature on the YSL rapper’s BUSINESS IS BUSINESS album? Let us know in the comments, and check back later this weekend for more HNHH release recommendations.

Young Thug Debunks Saweetie Diss On New Album “BUSINESS IS BUSINESS”

by

Even though this wasn’t a diss as people thought, it does answer some interesting questions people had about BUSINESS IS BUSINESS. Moreover, Young Thug recently stated via Twitter that a line that many thought was directed at Saweetie on his new album actually didn’t take aim at her at all. “My n***a ain’t even tryna hit sweetie,” Thug raps on the track “Want Me Dead.” Furthermore, it seems like a lot of people thought that he actually mentioned the California rapper. It was just a case of mishearing the line thanks to there not being a word like “a,” “the,” “my,” and so on before “sweetie.” “Her name is Saweetie,” Thugger tweeted. “I said sweetie. #BusinessIsBusiness.”

Given the Atlanta trap pioneer’s expressive inflections and unique tone, it’s easy to confuse lines from him. However, his clarification points to a few other rumors surrounding BUSINESS IS BUSINESS‘s release. For starters, many wondered how much of these new tracks were freshly recorded during his incarceration. He now confirmed that probably many of these have a couple of years on the shelf. More importantly, though, fans wonder whether Young Thug will clarify whether he meant to diss Gunna on tracks like “Jonesboro,” where he talks about snitching. Since he’s in jail, it’s unlikely that he recorded a specific verse for it. Still, now that he cleared one alleged diss up, why not another? And what does it mean if he doesn’t?

Well, the reason why is likely because of his YSL partner’s plea deal. Its legal ramifications likely bar significant contact between the two, as some pointed out. On the other hand of that argument, Wunna’s done plenty to shout out Young Thug and reach him indirectly. Also, Thugger once linked Gunna’s music on his IG bio and then deleted it. At the moment, it seems like the relationship between the two is assumed to be at least amicably at arm’s length as fans continue to speculate. For example, an alleged leak voice call from the 31-year-old to Lil Baby and Lil Durk asking for them to respond to Gunna’s alleged disses was called fake by Thug’s sister.

Meanwhile, even that hasn’t convinced people that there’s bad blood brewing. That’s certainly true for Gunna’s relationship with other artists, but not necessarily with Thugger himself. While many hope we’ll get true answers soon, those won’t likely be coming anytime soon. Regardless, log back into HNHH for the latest news on Young Thug and Saweetie.

Beyonce may be one of the biggest acts touring across Europe at the moment, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t still take time to enjoy the historic continent on her days off. Most recently the 41-year-old has been making plenty of appearances in France with her husband, Jay-Z. One of their first stops in the city was Pharrell’s Louis Vuitton menswear runway debut. During that, Bey was seen filming her longtime friend like a proud mom during his big moment. Of course, the Carters were some of the best-dressed at the venue, along with celebrity friends like Rihanna, ASAP Rocky, and Zendaya.

Their lifestyles certainly have them used to luxury. Nevertheless, a sneakily captured photo of Beyonce and Jay-Z at lunch in France earlier this week proves that they know how to enjoy the simple things in life too. “Not Bey playing Uno with [Hov] today, they’re just like us I’m crying 😭😭😭,” one Twitter user wrote while sharing the image of the “Irreplaceable” singer holding a small collection of colourful cards in her hand.

Queen B looked ready to take on the stage in an elegant white dress complete with feather and sheer detailing. She combined the gown with chunky sunglasses and a black and white purse, waving and smiling at cameras on her way into the restaurant.

Jay-Z appeared to be in total vacation mode, wearing a printed button-up shirt with green leaves and golden keys displayed across it. He kept it casual in a pair of cargo shorts, adding a simple watch, sunglasses, and a silk scarf tied around his hair. Aside from the paparazzi images that have been captured, the mother of three also shared some heartwarming snaps in a photo dump, giving us some insight into how playful she and the New Yorker are together, even after all these years.
