Jada Kingdom Clowns Stefflon Don On Instagram Live: Watch
Jada Kingdom and Stefflon Don remain locked in the hip-hop and dancehall beef battlefield, both on wax and on social media. While fans are still debating who “won” in this situation between the two, apparently stemming from their previous romantic links to Burna Boy, they are also giving plenty of ammo for both bases to use. Moreover, Jada recently hopped on Instagram Live to troll a little bit by playing one of Stefflon’s diss tracks against her, “Dead Gyal Talking,” which is the “sequel” to “Dead Gyal Walking.” Overall, it seemed like she was just having some fun playing the track, perhaps as a way to suggest a victory lap.
Furthermore, most of this feud manifested in the form of diss tracks from one artist to another. Not only that, but they grew deeply personal, and fans wonder whether it’s even possible for this to clear up or die down in the coming months. For example, Jada Kingdom previously dropped “Steff Lazarus,” in which she accused Stefflon Don of sacrificing her family for the fame. The Birmingham MC denied any and all claims, whereas the Jamaican singer stood by her allegations.

Jada Kingdom Plays Stefflon Don’s Diss Track On IG Live: Watch
However, these aren’t the only two players that entered the court in this feud, although they are the main pieces. Asian Doll recently stepped in to defend Stefflon Don and make some scandalous and combative remarks of her own. For one, she blasted Jada Kingdom on Twitter, who fired back with some presumptions about her, and kept the fire up with one response after another. We’ll see if more celebrities start picking sides in this spat, although it seems far too personal and un-impactful to do so.
Meanwhile, we know at least one artist wants this beef to end, and that’s none other than Sean Paul. He recently called for a ceasefire in the back-and-forth disses, a plea that we’ll see very soon if it actually ends up manifesting. Still, we wouldn’t be surprised if this becomes these artists’ claim to 2024 fame. On that note, check back in with HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Jada Kingdom and Stefflon Don.

Now 25, Red has come along way from high school. While her first tracks dropped in 2018, 2023 was the year that she really took off.
“Pound Town” and “Skee Yee” became viral hits, also becoming her first charting singles.

Meanwhile, Red announced that she plans to be a “whole new woman” after she “drops” her baby this year. “Super sexyy. Super pretty. Get money,” Red explained in a series of videos posted on Instagram. Red initially announced her pregnancy in October, but it’s unclear how far along she is in her pregnancy. As a result, it’s unknown when her due date is.
Of course, being pregnant hasn’t stopped Red from going wild. Red was twerking like the best of them as she celebrated the release of the deluxe version of Hottest Hood Princess. Red was turned all the way up at a release party, letting her booty shake like jello. Furthermore, Red’s impressive moves also showed that pregnancy isn’t slowing her down when comes to getting down.

Metro Boomin Likes Drake Shade Tweet Amid Beef Rumors
Metro Boomin liked a tweet that threw shade at Drake amid rumors that the pair are beefing. The tweet in question read “Drake when metro’s producer tag is about to pop in” alongside a gif from the film Dumb & Dumber. The gif shows Jim Carrey’s character plugging his ears and yelling loudly.
The rumors of beef stem from a picture of Drake in which the Canadian rapper was seen obscuring Metro’s name while listening to “Just Like Me”. The two had been sniping back and forth for weeks. Their feud appears to date back as far as rumors that Drake was removed from Metro’s 2022 album Heroes & Villians. However, more recently, their feud appears to be focused on their competing desires to dominate Best Rap Album during awards season. Despite this, both men have claimed there isn’t a beef.
Drake Links Up With Shy Glizzy In Turks & Caicos
Meanwhile, Drake has been making new friends and connections after a 2023 filled with fueling beef. During his lengthy vacation in Turks & Caicos, he linked up with with Shy Glizzy. The pair were photographed together at a bar and seemed to be doing some serious posting up together. Of course, Drake spent several weeks on the Caribbean islands for several weeks and appeared to have a great time. It’s unclear what triggered the extended vacation but, as mentioned, he appeared to have a blast.
Earlier in December, Drizzy paid it back to his fans. The rapper bought a massive round of shots for his fans at a beachside Tiki bar. A very scruffy-looking Drizzy was greeted by massive cheers, with some of the bar staff ruffling his hair. Of course, Drake is no stranger to doing nice things for his fans. During the “It’s All a Blur” tour, Drake promised to buy first-class tickets home for a pair of fans who had traveled all the way from Japan to see him perform.

“Baddies East”: Chrisean Rock’s Sister Tesehki Wants To Battle Smiley For Seizure
Baddies East just found its new main arc for the season, which stems from a trip the girls took to Jamaica on the Zeus Network reality television show. Moreover, cast member Smiley appeared to have a medical emergency while they were hanging out, suffering a seizure allegedly due to too much alcohol. While this was a very serious situation on the episode, fans and other stars alike expressed skepticism over whether or not this was real. Whether or not this is an appropriate or respectful response is for you to decide. Regardless, it seems like tonight’s episode (Sunday, January 14) is ramping up the heat when it comes to this debate.
Furthermore, the new Baddies East episode promo for this week shows Chrisean Rock’s sister, Tesehki, wanting to fight Smiley for her illness. In the clip, you can see how she debates with other cast members about how she ruined the fun on the trip and was “scared,” which is why she allegedly “faked” the seizure. All in all, it’s a very tense and also combative situation considering previous beefs between the ladies. At least the teaser mostly shows people trying to call the Baltimore native down, so maybe she won’t end up slapping Smiley for the situation.

Still, this isn’t an easy accusation for anyone to deal with, especially after a vulnerable moment that should elicit support and empathy. This is what Smiley had to say concerning people calling her seizure fake, and she tearfully expressed herself in an overwhelmed fashion. “Y’all don’t know how this s**t feel, bro,” the Baddies East actress shared in a TikTok clip. “Y’all don’t know how I’m feeling, y’all didn’t see how this s**t feel, bro.
“I don’t even know what was going on,” she continued. “I did not know what the f**k was going on in this f***ing s**t. It was, like, I was so nervous for this s**t to come on. And then I’m seeing all these comments, and I have to sit here and watch this s**t? Bruh, my grandma, everybody is watching this, bruh, this s**t…” For more news and the latest updates on Baddies East, stick around on HNHH.

Kanye West Files Bianca Censori-Inspired Trademark
Kanye West has filed a trademark for the phrase “I MISS YOU WHEN I WAKE UP BEFORE YOU”. The phrase was seemingly inspired by a post on Instagram that West made last week. It served as the caption for a photo of Censori smiling as she relaxed on a couch. It’s unclear what West intends to do with the trademark at this time.
It comes a week after West wished his wife a happy birthday. “Happy birthday to the most beautiful super bad iconic muse. Inspirational talented artist masters degree in architecture 140 IQ loving by my side everyday when half the world turned their backs on me. And the most amazing step mom to our children I love you so much thank you for sharing your life with me,” West wrote alongside a close-up photo of Censori’s face. However, most responses to the post were fans mocking West about the often-delayed Vultures album, which is now expected on January 19.

Kanye West Instagram Return Concerns Fans
Kanye returned to Instagram in December 2023, having left the platform in April. He announced his initial exit with a screenshot of the account deactivation prompt. Additionally, his decision to deactivate his account came about a month after he was resuspended and proceeded to say he “liked Jewish people” after watching Jonah Hill in 21 Jump Street. However, not everyone has been a fan of Kanye’s return to the platform. Of Kanye’s seven posts on the platform, three have been on Censori in revealing outfits. This has sparked previously raised concerns that Kanye mistreats Censori. In the comments, many people have likened Kanye’s treatment of Censori to playing with a doll.
Much has been made of the couple’s unusual relationship. The couple went on “a break” in November 2023. The news of the break came after reports that Ye had turned the architect and Yeezy staffer into a “radicalized version of Kim Kardashian“. Furthermore, her family and friends became increasingly concerned throughout the couple’s recent months-long trip to Italy. Additionally, it appeared their breaking point was reports that Ye had imposed a strict set of rules for Censori to live by.

Tory Lanez Gets Prison Visit From His Son
Tory Lanez is still fighting to reverse his legal case from behind bars, but at least unfruitful and unwarranted endeavors found balance with family. Moreover, TMZ reports that his six-year-old son Kai recently visited him in prison for two weekends straight after not being able to spend the holidays together at all. Their alleged source is Ceasar McDowell, a member of the rapper and singer’s legal team and CEO of Unite The People, who spoke to the publication. For those unaware, Lanez is currently at California Correctional Institution Tehachapi and is about four months into his 10-year sentence for shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the foot.
Furthermore, an undisclosed family member took Kai to the facility, and Tory Lanez spoke to his son right upfront, not from behind a glass wall. They reportedly sat at a table for about 4-5 hours on Saturday and Sunday on both weekends and played board games, drew, and got some vending machine snacks. It wasn’t quite the extravagant meal that the Canadian artist got for Christmas, but surely a memorable and enjoyable bite nonetheless, especially with the world’s most important company. Apparently, McDowell relayed that Tory loved seeing his son after no holiday time, despite the fact that they communicate frequently regardless of physical interactions.

In fact, Tory Lanez showed Kai to the world quite often during his court case, as he took him to trial on various occasions throughout 2022. We all know how it turned out, and no matter which side you fall on with that debate, it’s still quite relevant and important to discuss and evaluate. For example, one of the trial’s most prolific journalists, Meghann Cuniff, recently released merch inspired by Tory’s insults towards her. As such, we’ve seen how, as the factual legal case wrapped up, the court of public opinion remains open long after.
Meanwhile, a recently surfaced picture of him in prison shows him in good spirits. We’ll see if there are any more direct or indirect updates on the 31-year-old’s general state and legal status. At least family is never too far away. For more news on Tory Lanez, come back to HNHH.

It’s a shocking moment for Gotti and his family, especially given how well things had been going with for the rapper. Last year, he gave a glowing interview about his ownership of the MLS’ DC United. “It was a few years ago when I joined the club as an owner, part of the ownership club. I think diversifying growth as an entrepreneur, I mean, whoever thought we would own part of a professional sports team? I try to show to the young guys in my city by action, what we can do and what we can become if we stay determined and disciplined and on top of what we’re trying to do as young hustlers and entrepreneurs,” Gotti told Ebro Darden of Apple Music. He also teamed up with the First Lady to promote the 2023 All-Star Game.
However, 2023 was a disappointing season for the DC team. They finished 23rd in the overall MLS standings. United have not finished higher than 16th since 2019, when they finished 10th. It also marked the first full season of England soccer legend Wayne Rooney as head coach. However, Rooney left after the season for an unsuccessful coaching stint with English club Birmingham City.
