A Viral NSFW Video Of Ice Spice’s ‘Meh Twerk’ Has Fans Online Concerned For The ‘Phat Butt’ Rapper

Is Ice Spice ready to retire from twerking? This may seem like a silly question, but that is all the chatter online among fans following a video of the “Phat Butt” rapper took off like wildfire.

Yesterday (July 5), Ice Spice tried to enjoy the second day of her Y2K! World Tour. However, supporters online noticed that as she began to shake her tail feather for the Open’er Festival crowd, something was off.

In the now viral clip, Ice Spice’s face is hard to read. But users online believe it to be a mixture of boredom, annoyance, and regret. Now, her super fans, the munchkins, are considered for mental health.

“Ice Spice is tired of this fame sh*t 😭😭,” wrote one user.

“Ice Spice don’t even look happy twerking anymore 😭,” penned another.

Others threw their support behind Ice Spice, chalking up the moment to workplace fatigue.

“Everybody have one of those days at work they don’t feel like being there, but they have to do their job 😂,” joked another.

While some took it as an ominous sign for what’s to come.

“She’s just soullessly twerking 😭 no hope for the future anymore 😭,” chimed another.

View more fan reactions to the viral clip below.

With several weeks remaining on the Y2K! World Tour, Ice Spice has plenty of time to phase out the move (if she wants).

Ty Dolla Sign Announces “VULTURES” Listening Event In Korea

by

VULTURES 1 was supposed to be the first installment in a trilogy, and Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign (for whatever reason) have failed to follow up on this series. But don’t fret, fans: a new announcement indicates that the hype cycle is back, and that new music could arrive pretty soon. Moreover, Ty recently announced on social media that he and Ye will host a VULTURES listening event in Korea (presumably South… right?) on Friday, August 23 of this year. This follows the Los Angeles artist’s previous claims that VULTURES 2 will have a “new sound,” further fueling fan excitement.

“We got all the songs,” the “Dream Girl” singer said of his next collaborative album with Kanye West in a Billboard interview. “Basically, it’s just like, ‘How can we get it there? How can we go bigger than the first album?’ Certain people will probably expect you to just do the same exact sound. But that sound’s already out.” “The album is almost done and could be released any day now,” he reportedly expressed per NFR Podcast. Of course, fans are also taking all this with a massive grain of salt, as there have been far too many disappointments and missed teased release dates (again, perhaps out of their control) in the past.

Ty Dolla Sign & Kanye West Are Taking VULTURES To Korea… For Now

Elsewhere, Ty Dolla Sign also spoke of his relationship with Ye, particularly in regard to this rollout and his many, many controversies. “Ye is the best artist of this generation, besides me, and I don’t give a f**k about what people were talking about,” Ty shared. “I know my n***a. He’s one of the best people I’ve ever met. Just with my analysis of how it goes with him, he goes all the way to the top. And something may happen and he’ll say [something people find offensive] -– and then people [get] right back, you know. Because this s**t is undeniable.”

Speaking of which, Kanye West is facing multiple lawsuits right now for assault, sexual harassment, and labor exploitation, among other things. As such, this might not be the best time to pick VULTURES back up again. But then again, when would be a good time for Ye to pop out considering all he did and expressed? Like Ty Dolla Sign said, fans will still line back up to see what the latest update is.

Ice Spice’s Unenthusiastic Twerk Session Leaves Fans Worried

by

It goes without saying that too much of the same thing is sure to get old, and fans speculate that the same applies to Ice Spice’s signature dance moves. The 24-year-old rapper just kicked off a world tour in support of her upcoming album Y2K!, and already, a moment from one of her shows has gone viral. During the performance, she turned her back to the crowd to throw it back per usual, looking incredibly unenthused. This has prompted theories that she’s overworked, bored, or simply sick of twerking.

“Ice Spice don’t even look happy twerking anymore,” one commenter writes. “Ice Spice is tired of this fame sh*t,” someone else says. Others are coming to her defense, arguing that everyone has off days at work, including the Bronx-born baddie. Many also note that her exhaustion doesn’t come as a surprise. She’s been at it for a while now and has some major things to look forward to in the coming weeks.

Social Media Users Think Ice Spice Seems Exhausted

Her debut studio album Y2K! is scheduled to drop later this month, for example, and she’s been hard at work teasing what’s to come. She’s also speculated to have a new romance heating up with Central Cee, and while this is still unconfirmed, they were recently spotted spending a lot of time together. All of that on top of alleged sneak-disses, style-biting accusations, and more is sure to leave anyone feeling a bit worn out.

Of course, it’s also very possible that she was simply caught at a bad time. She’s yet to comment on the viral video. What do you think of Ice Spice’s unenthusiastic twerk session going viral? What about social media users speculating that she’s sick of it? Do you agree or not? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Zoe Osama Taps Tons Of West Coast Icons For “From The Eastside With Love”

by

Zoe Osama has been forging his own sound in the West Coast scene for the last four years. His brand is having an absolute blast all while sounding pretty different than his competition. His delivery is typically pretty animated, which is fairly normal sight out in California. However, unlike some artists, his unusual cadence is not a copycat of anyone else’s. It is why songs like “Underrated” are hitting for him and still are today. Speaking of that track, it lands on Zoe Osama’s latest offering, From The Eastside With Love.

This album ends two years with no LP, as his last was January 2022’s Underrated. It is quite odd that a two-year old track like “Underrated” is on this newest outing, but Zoe Osama seems to be very happy with the song’s results. He certainly should be, as it has racked up over 32 million streams and is his most popular record to date. In fact, he doubles on how vital it has been for him by adding a remix with fellow West Coast G.O.A.T.s Snoop Dogg and E-40. However, Zoe has much more to offer on From The Eastside, so be sure to give it a spin.

Drake Looks “Aged” In Photos From Michael Rubin’s White Party, Kendrick Lamar Fans Claim

by

Yesterday, photos from Michael Rubin’s annual white party started to make their rounds online, revealing the seemingly endless list of high-profile celebrities who attended. Drake, for instance, was spotted posing alongside Rubin himself in a photo posted on Instagram. Unfortunately, fans were quick to call the hitmaker out.

In the photo, Drizzy is seen just barely cracking a smile. This has prompted social media users to claim that he looks defeated, or that he’s aged quickly in recent months. “Drake aged like 20 years since the beef,” one commenter writes. “Why does Drake look so old tho,” someone else wonders. Of course, most users are convinced that Kendrick Lamar is the culprit. Some also suspect that his lifestyle choices could have something to do with the apparent change in his appearance.

Drake Poses Alongside Michael Rubin At Annual White Party

Kendrick just unleashed his eagerly anticipated “Not Like Us” music video earlier this week, amid the fallout of the two rappers’ viral beef, however. Unsurprisingly, the video features various jabs at Drake and has only reignited the conversation surrounding the lyrical battle. This would surely have anyone stressed out. Drizzy has kept a fairly low profile over the past few weeks, aside from a few unbothered-sounding social media posts.

It’s also worth noting that Drake was additionally spotted chatting with GloRilla, Camila Cabello, and more throughout the night, and appeared to be in much better spirits. The photographer could have just caught him at a bad time, but regardless, Kendrick’s fans are having fun with their theories. What do you think of fans claiming that Drake looks to have aged after seeing him in photos from Michael Rubin’s white party? Do you agree with them, or are they simply being too harsh? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Vikings Rookie Khyree Jackson Dies at 24 With Two HS Teammates in Maryland Car Crash

by

Khyree Jackson, a promising Minnesota Vikings rookie and former standout at Oregon, tragically passed away at the age of 24 following a car crash early Saturday morning. The accident, which also claimed the lives of two others, was confirmed by the Maryland State Police.

Khyree Jackson drafted by the Vikings with the No. 108 overall pick in April 2024. 

“I am absolutely crushed by this news,” head coach Kevin O’Connell said. “Khyree brought a contagious energy to our facility and our team. His confidence and engaging personality immediately drew his teammates to him. In our short time together, it was evident Khyree was going to develop into a tremendous professional football player, but what was more impressive was his desire to become the best person he could be for his family and those around him. I am at a loss for words. My heart goes out to Khyree’s family, friends, teammates, and coaches.”

From reports, it all happened around 3:14 a.m. on Saturday when police in Prince George’s County responded to reports of a crash involving three vehicles. Upon arrival, state troopers found a maroon Dodge Charger, a silver Infiniti Q50, and a silver Chevrolet Impala involved in the collision.

Jackson, a passenger in the Charger, and 23-year-old Isaiah Hazel, who was driving the car, were pronounced dead at the scene. Another passenger, 23-year-old Anthony Lytton Jr., was transported to a nearby hospital where he was later pronounced dead. The three victims were reportedly former teammates at Dr. Henry Wise Jr. High School in Maryland. Unbelievably sad on so many levels.

Get this, according to the early investigation, the driver of the Infiniti, identified as Cori Clingman, crashed into the Charger while attempting to change lanes at a high speed, subsequently hitting the Chevrolet. Clingman had two passengers in her car, neither of whom were injured. The driver of the Chevrolet was also uninjured.

Police believe that alcohol may have been a contributing factor in the crash, and charges are pending as the investigation continues.

Do not drink and drive. Period.

Flau’jae Drops Her Biggest Project To Date With “Best Of Both Worlds”

by

“I love combining my two talents. Best of Both Worlds shows you don’t have to choose one path—you can excel in multiple arenas”, Flau’jae said in a press release according to Complex. “This project reflects who I am — a basketball player, a rapper, and someone who refuses to be put in a box. I hope my fans can feel the passion and dedication I’ve poured into every song”. The LSU Tigers junior guard has been one of the main stars of that basketball program. If she decides to enter the WNBA Draft, she will for sure be a face of that league as well. However, as she stated, Flau’jae is not settling for one career path.

Over the last few years, Ms. Johnson has been ramping up her musical activity. Most of the progress has been made through singles and EPs. But helping propel her forward have been some faces that hip-hop fans will recognize. For example, leading up to the release of Best Of Both Worlds, Flau’jae got in the studio with 2Rare and NLE Choppa for two out of the five promotional tracks. As a result, both have become two of her most popular songs on streaming. Additionally, she had the opportunity to work with a Louisiana legend in Lil Wayne for “Came Out A Beast”, which is also popping off right now.

Overall, Flau’jae has the talent, the star power, and the connections to really grow her platform in the rap industry. We do not have a lot of female basketball players that can also spit, so she is becoming a pioneer right before our eyes. What has also been a cool byproduct of Best Of Both Worlds for her is that she now has a podcast of the same name. According to Sports Illustrated, it is co-hosted by her mother and is receiving backing from the major sports media outlet, Overtime. If you want, you can check out Flau’jae’s first episode with WNBA great Breanna Stewart.

RAP Ferreira Addresses Allegations Against Him Over Alleged Domestic Violence & More

by

RAP Ferreira recently faced domestic violence, child abuse, and sexual assault allegations from his ex-girlfriend, Chloe “Mekah” Stingley. In a video posted to his Instagram account, the rapper addressed these claims and, long story short, denied any wrongdoing in his remarks. First, he clarified that his legal team gave him the all-clear to speak on “private matters made public,” and apologized for the time in between these accusations and his response. Ferreira addressed a “legal battle” for his daughter with Stingley, someone whom he said he’s known for eight years and that he’s helped through incidents with some “violent men.”

Furthermore, R.A.P. Ferreira also claimed he paid $20,000 for a lawyer so Stingley could get custody of her son from another allegedly abusive partner, who is now in a county holding facility for stalking, domestic abuse, battery, sexual assault, and more. He said she moved to Tennessee and that he never lived at that home, and said that Stingley cut contact with him after he had a child with another partner. In addition, the First Fist To Make Contact When We Dap MC said he was never in a monogamous relationship with Stingley, and that he sought legal help to connect with his daughter again while prioritizing her safety.

A post shared by R.A.P. Ferreira (@hipcatscience)

R.A.P. Ferreira also claimed that the DCS report Stingley referred to about his alleged abuse of her son is facetious after a police investigation. Then, he claimed that Stingley partied at the time when they planned to meet to exchange their daughter, and that her attorney notified his of her claims that Ferreira sexually abused one of her children. He also added that state officials reportedly removed their daughter from Stingley’s care and is now with him. After this anecdote, Ferreira denied sexually assaulting anyone and said he never physically assaulted a woman or child.

“[R.A.P. Ferreira] physically assaulted my 7 year old at his record store, Soulfolks Records, used a deadly weapon against him and also sexually assaulted me,” Stingley alleged. “We lived in Nashville for a few months and fled in November of 2023 because of fear of bodily harm and death… I desire for Miel [their daughter] to keep a relationship with her father but not to the detriment of the health, safety and well being of myself or my children.”
