A fan of Pink recently threw their late mother’s ashes on stage at the singer while she was performing her hit “Just Like a Pill” during one of her recent shows at BST Hyde Park in London. A clip of the moment has been going viral on social media, Tuesday.
“Is this your mom?” Pink responded to the fan who had thrown the ashes. “I don’t know how I feel about this.” Pink appeared uncomfortable but went on singing.

Fans shared plenty of responses to the clip when it was posted by The Shade Room on Instagram. “From throwing panties to throwing ashes [crying emoji] you and yo mama gotta go,” one fan joked, while another wrote: “The way I would’ve winded my arm up & tossed a mf mammy back in the crowd cause huh …” One more added: “This is so… God knew not to make me a celebrity because I would have been canceled a long time ago.” Check out the clip of the incident below.
Pink is currently traveling on her Summer Carnival 2023 Tour. She’ll be performing across Europe through July 16 before returning to North America for a string of shows through October 9. For the shows in London, Pink brought along Gwen Stefani. She thanked the singer for performing in an Instagram post after the show. “I have known you for a long time and I have looked up to you like a big sister. You’re the coolest, kindest, and you always have the most swag in the room,” Pink captioned a photo of them chatting backstage. “Thank you for spending your weekend with me. We have so much more to cover. I’m gonna call you tomorrow lol. I love you.”
Gilbert Arenas was one of the more prominent names in the NBA during his career. The former Washington Wizards star made a name for himself as a bucket-getter. However, the height of his career was shortened due to injury. Leaving many to wonder what could have been if the Washington guard stayed healthy. Now, Arenas has rapidly grown into a star among the NBA media. With his show ‘Gil’s Arena‘ the former superstar breaks down today’s game from the perspective of someone who has played at the highest level.
The talking point for most in the NBA media landscape currently is phenom Victor Wembanyama. Wembanyama was recently selected first overall in the 2023 NBA Draft by the San Antonio Spurs. The French star has dazzled fans with highlights that no other player could accomplish. The mixture of his supernatural height and his athletic ability had scouts drooling over the opportunity to select him. However, if Webanyama had a negative on his record, it would be his muscle mass. But Arenas doesn’t see that as an issue.
During an interview on the ‘TMZ Sports Show‘ Arenas opened up on the opinion that Wembanyama has to get stronger. “If you can get buckets, you can get buckets. It doesn’t matter how strong you are,” stated Arenas. Arenas even went further to say that most of the big men in the NBA are trash. “He only has two people in the position that he’s going to be guarding, you got [Joel Embiid] and [Nikola Jokic]. That’s six games a year. That’s gonna be real tough for you. Other than that there’s no one in your position. Everyone sucks. Everyone’s trash.”
Certainly, Wembanyama will look to put on some size. However, players like Arenas believe that if he can score, it won’t be a rush to add the extra weight. The Oklahoma City Thunder welcomed Chet Holmgren to their franchise last season. Holmgren has a similar build to Wembanyama. However, Holmgren was sidelined with an injury that cost him the entire season. Do you believe putting on muscle is a priority for Wembanyama? Let us know in the comment section.

Remy Ma is a prominent figure in the New York hip hop scene, consistently representing The Bronx in her music. Known for her tough demeanor and vicious rap style, she started her career as a protégé of the legendary Big Pun, eventually joining his Terror Squad collective. She appeared on two songs from Pun’s posthumous album, 2000’s Yeeeah Baby.
As a member of the Terror Squad, Remy Ma and Fat Joe released “Lean Back” in 2004, eventually becoming one of the most iconic hip hop songs of the 2000s. She was also on the famous remix of M.O.P.’s “Ante Up” with Busta Rhymes and Teflon. Following her debut album in 2007, Remy Ma ran into label troubles and disagreements with Fat Joe. Additionally, she spent six years in prison from 2008 to 2014. Though prison hindered Remy Ma’s visibility, she came back swinging. She has since appeared on Love & Hip Hop and married Papoose, becoming one of hip hop’s strongest power couples.
While Remy Ma has been a part of many impactful hip hop songs, her music catalog has gone underappreciated. While she only has one studio album to her name, Remy Ma has released several mixtapes and her reunion album with Fat Joe from 2017. This is a list of Remy Ma’s top five biggest hits, drawing from her discography, not including music as a part of Terror Squad. Take a look at the list below.
5. “Whuteva” (2005)
“Whuteva” was the first single from Remy Ma’s 2006 debut album, There’s Something About Remy: Based on a True Story. Much like her previous release and first-ever solo single, “Monster,” “Whuteva” is a collaboration with Swizz Beatz, one of the hottest hip hop producers at the time. Production from Swizz Beatz was almost a guaranteed hit back then. Much like many songs he produced at the time, Swizz plays the hype man role on the track, encouraging people to put their hands up on the song’s chorus. Much like “Lean Back,” the chorus on “Whuteva” instructs people to move. The song is riddled with New York slang and references, which became a key characteristic of Remy Ma’s rap style.
4. “Melanin Magic (Pretty Brown)” feat. Chris Brown (2018)
“Melanin Magic (Pretty Brown)” still remains as Remy Ma’s biggest post-prison solo single. The song is an empowering celebration of Black people, especially Black women. The song notably samples Mint Condition’s “Breakin My Heart (Pretty Brown Eyes)” from 1991. The chorus from Chris Brown adds a soulful touch to the glamorous instrumental, contrasting nicely with Remy’s tough delivery.
A hook from Ne-Yo on a rap collaboration made for an automatic hit song back in the 2000s, and “Feels So Good” is further evidence of that. The single from Remy Ma’s There’s Something About Remy: Based on a True Story is a pretty standard rap/R&B duet but has aged quite gracefully because of Remy Ma’s rapping ability and Ne-Yo’s hitmaking vocals. “Feels So Good” did not enter the Billboard Hot 100 but charted on the Hot Hip Hop/R&B Songs, Hot Rap Songs, and Rhythmic charts.
2. “Conceited (There’s Something About Remy)” (2005)
“Conceited (There’s Something About Remy)” is the biggest single from Remy Ma’s debut album. Over a Scott Storch-produced instrumental reminiscent of “Lean Back.” Much like the title suggests, the song is quite conceited as Remy stunts on the listener. The song contains a few famous samples, including Right Said Fred’s “I’m Too Sexy” and Christina Millian’s “Dip It Low.” “Conceited (There’s Something About Remy)” was Remy Ma’s first solo single to appear on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
1. “All The Way Up” with Fat Joe feat. French Montana & Infrared (2016)
“All the Way Up” is easily the biggest hit song of Remy Ma’s career, released over 14 years after her debut single. It was Remy Ma’s first single to be released in ten years, following “Feels So Good.” The song was a comeback record for Remy Ma after her imprisonment. It marked her reunion with Fat Joe, serving as the lead single from their collaborative album, Plata O Plomo. The song is all about leveling up and achieving success, which made for the ultimate comeback song for Remy Ma. Fresh out of prison, she opens her verse with the lyric, “Just left the big house to a bigger house.”
The fact that “All the Way Up” is a collaboration with Fat Joe marked a full circle moment for their relationship, and features from French Montana and Infrared make the song a New York affair. The track is Remy Ma’s only Platinum single, first reaching the height in 2016 and now sitting at 3x Platinum status since 2021. It is also certified Gold in the UK and Platinum in France.
Damian Lillard has the entire NBA world in the palm of his hands. The Portland Trail Blazers star is the key piece to many potential moves this off-season. For the last few years, it has felt like Lillard and the Trail Blazers would inevitably part. However, Lillard has remained loyal to the franchise his entire career. But it now seems like time is ticking. The all-star guard is now wondering how much time he has left to win an NBA title. Or if he can even do it in Portland?
On Monday, it was reported that Lillard met with the organization to discuss his future. Would he be looking to build a contender in Portland? Or would he finally be requesting a trade from the team he has been so fiercely loyal to? According to ESPN‘s Brian Windhorst, Lillard did not ask for a trade during the meeting. Instead, it is being reported that Lillard wants to wait and see what the franchise does during free agency.
While time may be of the essence, Lillard plans to wait around a little longer. The Weber State product has made no secret of what his intentions are for the upcoming season. Lillard has stated over and over again that he wants a veteran-heavy team. However, it seems the franchise looks to be in the middle of another rebuild. The Trail Blazers selected Scoot Henderson with their first-round pick in the NBA Draft earlier this month. However, young talent alone will not be enough to keep Lillard in town.
So, long story short, Lillard continues to be patient with his future. Any move the superstar makes will be looked at under a microscope. If he stays, people will question if he really wants a shot at a title. If he leaves, others will claim he’s just another sell-out trying to create the next superteam. What do you think Damian Lillard should do? Let us know in the comment section. For the latest news in sports, keep it right here with HNHH.
Fat Joe, who is of Puerto Rican descent, addressed the backlash to his use of the n-word during an interview with Talib Kweli for the People’s Party podcast. In doing so, he explained that he grew up around the use of the word in New York City and described the controversy as “mind-boggling.”
The conversation kicked off with Talib Kweli explaining the situation. “For those of us that grew up in New York City – Latino people who grew up in Black neighborhoods, they say n***a just like Black people do,” he said.

From there, Joe responded: “Explaining it to people at this point is like, mind-boggling to me, ’cause it’s been like, ‘What’s up Fat Joe? You my n***a!’ since I’m 2 years old. You taking it offensive, then what do I look like a slave owner to you? Or I look like the cop who killed George Floyd? I gotta think about you. ‘Cause you obviously know that you just said I’m the most important piece of Hip Hop. You obviously know I’m wit Black people all day. I fight for Black people, I fight for Latinos every day of my life.”
He continued: “I don’t try to let people make me second guess what I do because that’s not what Hip Hop was founded on. The origin of the word is foul anyway. I don’t know how we made it cool. If I’m driving right down the block and somebody’s doing something to the blackest lady in the world – I’m jumping out. I’m dying! So it’s offensive to me when people say, ‘Yo, why do you even say that?’ Like, don’t you know?!”
Fat Joe Speaks With Talib Kweli
It’s far from the first time Joe has addressed the controversy. He also spoke about using the word while appearing on The Breakfast Club back in 2022. Additionally, he had to defend himself from users on social media after criticizing Joe Rogan for using the n-word.
The BET Awards this year were a rollercoaster of emotions, to say the least. We felt all the love while watching Quavo and Offset reunite with an incredible tribute to the late Takeoff. Later, the temperature in the room increased as JT’s anger toward Lil Uzi Vert erupted in a phone-throwing feud. One of the celebrities who was most excited to be in attendance was definitely Boosie Badazz, who had to bring his lawyers along for supervision shortly after he bonded out of jail.
While walking the red carpet a the annual ceremony, the Louisiana native stopped to speak with the press about several hot topics right now, one of them being snitching and its lack of tolerance within the hip-hop culture these days. When asked why he feels so negatively about those who snitch, Boosie had plenty to say. “It happened to my family. I’ve had two uncles snitched on that did 10-20 years,” he began.
I was on Death Row because somebody lied on me, snitched on me,” he told the interviewer this past weekend. “It’s been detrimental to my family since the ’80s, so that’s why I have no love for people who do that.” As you may recall, Boosie has been particularly hard on Gunna after the YSL rapper accepted a plea deal in his RICO trial earlier this year. He’s denied allegations of informing on Young Thug, but regardless, the rumours persist.
Aside from answering the press’ burning questions at the 2023 BET Awards, Boosie Badazz also “Put It On Da Floor” during Latto’s performance and linked up with Sukihana. While chatting with the latter rap diva he had a NSFW question that was caught on camera and is now making rounds online. See the strange moment for yourself at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
Jim Jones is ready for all the smoke. Calling QueenzFlip on The Joe Budden Podcast, Jones asked the group of guys who would slide for Pusha T in the rap battle.
“Who’s gonna spin the block for him? Is Pharrell gonna spin the block for him? Is Malice gonna say a prayer? Who’s gonna spin the block for him?” Jones said. “I’m talking about musically, too. I ain’t talking about thug shit, we already know I can do that. Who he got that’s gon’ spin the block for him? Malice is a preacher who works at Walmart.”

Like many of us in rap, Joe Budden is watching Jim Jones and Pusha T heat up. Speaking on a previous episode, Joe is looking to stay Switzerland in the beef.
“Boy, am I torn,” Joe opened. “On one hand I know to leave Push, you leave him alone. Retired me, active me, if I were ever gonna, I would get at that n***a actually, but boy would I be respectful of my approach.
“I’d have to lead with the jab. A lot of thought would go into it. Pusha T is a methodical man outside of rapping he is a methodical thinking, planning man.”
Over the weekend, Jim Jones fired back at Pusha T after his diss. Jones bypassed the glamorous backdrop of Paris for the block of Harlem, dropping a response to King Push over a hanging mic outside a bodega.
In a response called “Summer Collection,” a From the Block performance, Jones slings jabs at Pusha, including saying he is a fake JAY-Z, saying his diss was trash, joking about his fashion, and alluding that Pusha’s brother, No Malice, used crack.
If you are catching up on how this started, Jim Jones had feelings about Pusha T’s career earlier this year, and as expected, King Push had some words back. Pusha T and his brother No Malice joined their friend Pharrell Williams’ Louis Vuitton menswear fashion show.
As the duo strolled, a new Clipse record played, the first in 13 years, and Pusha had some bars that fans believe to be a response to Jim.
“Beware of my name, that there’s delegate You know I know where you’re delicate Crush you to pieces, I’ll hum a breath of it I will close your heaven for the hell of it”
And another set of more pointed bars:
“You’d think there’d be honor amongst veterans I am watching your fame escape relevance We’re all in the room, but here’s the elephant You’re chasing a feature out of your element”
A new Clipse song w/ Push possibly goin at Jim Jones has surfaced.
You’d think there’d be honor amongst veterans/ I am watching your fame escape relevance/ We’re all in the room, but here’s the elephant/ You’re chasing a feature out of your element.pic.twitter.com/fD0yYi81w6

If you are wondering what started all of this, Jim Jones has been critical of Pusha T’s placement on Billboard’s Top 50 Rappers of all-time list. In short, Jim Jones wondered what made Pusha worthy of a ranking and also challenged his importance to HIp-Hop culture. Moments of this are captured by HipHopDX and also his return to The Breakfast Club.
Last week, in an image online, SZA’s security is spotted with a Utopia briefcase handcuffed to his arm, just like Scott’s was. SZA’s guard is positioned outside of her SOS Tour dressing room.
The two have impressive chemistry together as they teamed together for “Love Galore” on the CTRL album and “Open Arms” on the recently released SOS.
Complex also has confirmed the two have been working on new music together.
Sources told Complex Travis Scott and SZA have been recording music together

In addition to SZA, Bad Bunny and Travis Scott linked up. Two of the biggest stars walking the planet have teamed for a single, and La Flame teased the track while at a club in Monaco.
Offset and Quavo are cool but that will not result in the immediate return to making music as Migos. According to TMZ, the duo have been cool for some time, mending their relationship behind the scene.
Sources reveal the two are currently not planning to record new music as a unit. The BET Awards moment was solely for honoring Takeoff and the Migos name may never be used again.
The unannounced tribute aired as the show returned from commercial, positioning Quavo and Takeoff on opposite sides of a heavenly spotlight, which took the place of Takeoff. The two supported Takeoff’s verse on “Hotel Lobby” before performing their classic anthem “Bad and Boujee.”
The moment was both important to the legacy of Takeoff but assuming to place a nail in a standing beef between the two Migos members.
BET released footage from backstage as T.I. celebrates the two and echoes a statement that all of Hip-Hop had: “Love to see it.”
You can see that moment and the full performance below.
Kodak Black became a Florida jail on Monday and was released on a $250,000 bond.
Speaking with TMZ, Kodak’s lawyer, Bradford Cohen, revealed the booking was good for the rapper, citing he failed to take some mandatory urine tests and check in leading to court on Monday. Fans became familiar with the situation when Black complained about the scenario on Instagram Sunday.
The good part comes as Cohen petitioned the judge to drop the pretrial supervision, successfully getting it done. The bond increased from $75,000 to $250,000, and Kodak happily paid the $175,000 difference.
Kodak was in and out of processing within an hour. He can now travel and tour without the check-ins.
The conditions resulted from Kodak’s July 2022 arrest for allegedly trafficking oxycodone after 31 pills were found in his car.
