Azealia Banks Facing Florida Eviction Accuses Landlord of ‘Intimidation’ 

image

It’s not a hot girl summer for Azealia Banks who just filed a lawsuit against her landlord. She accused him of wrongfully blaming her for a rodent infestation and allowing unauthorized filming of her lingerie, which was reported, exclusively by In Touch. 

Get this, the plot thickens. In court documents obtained by In Touch, they reveal that Azealia made these allegations after facing an eviction lawsuit. 

On June 4th, her landlord, Isis Claro, sued Azealia, claiming she occupied their property under an oral lease agreement. 

According to The Neighborhood Talk, Isis alleged that Azealia owed $8,000 in back rent and sought her eviction from a 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom, 3,088 square-foot home in Palmetto Bay, Florida. 

Sheesh, eight racks?

But hold on now, Azealia responded with a countersuit against Isis and another individual, firmly denying any wrongdoing. 

She stated, “Defendant has complied with all controlling terms of the Parties’ Lease Agreement, including the timely payment of rent.” Azealia disputed the rent amount and additional charges imposed by the landlord, asserting that she had signed a one-year lease starting in January 2023 with a monthly rent of $7,050 and had paid a $14,600 security deposit. 

Diving in, she claimed the landlord failed to issue a new lease after the initial term ended and subjected her to “egregious conduct and harassment” during her tenancy.

Banks further accused the landlord of neglecting maintenance tasks, refusing rent payments, and invading her privacy. Additionally, she alleged that the landlord allowed unauthorized access by a third party who filmed her personal belongings, including lingerie, constituting harassment, and intimidation at inconvenient times.

When it comes to the condition of the rental, Azealia claimed that the landlord falsely blamed her for a rodent infestation originating from the property’s roof. Despite repairmen’s notifications, the issue remained unresolved. Her lawsuit demands the return of her security deposit and legal fees. 

As of July 2nd, the landlord sought dismissal of Azealia’s claims and requested possession of the property, pending a judge’s ruling. The rent crisis in America is no joke and seems like not even Azealia Banks is immune.

Eminem Returns To “The Marshall Mathers LP” House In “Tobey” Music Video Teaser

Eminem has fans feeling very happy these days with his new single “Tobey” featuring Big Sean and BabyTron, building up hype for the release of his new album The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce) next week (Friday, July 12). However, they are not quite as happy as they could be, as it looks like the Lyrical Lemonade-partnered music video for the track, directed by Cole Bennett, is not quite ready for release yet. But don’t fret, Marshall Mathers fans. He recently took to social media to apologize for the delay in the visuals’ release, but did include a short clip from the upcoming video to hold fans over.

“The Tobey video is not completed- new date Monday 7/8,” Eminem captioned the clip on Twitter. “Here’s a peek in the meantime!!! Sorry 4 the delay.” In the snippet, you can see BabyTron walk past Eminem, who’s sitting on the steps of his iconic house featured in the cover art for The Marshall Mathers LP and its 2013 direct sequel. It’s a bit of a full-circle moment for the Detroit legend, as well as for the city’s own Big Sean. “Not gon hold you, Slim Shady LP was the first CD i bought wit my own money at Costco,” he recently tweeted. “Me n Em bout 4 songs in now (DVE, No Favors, Detroit 2 cypher) but being on The Death Of Slim Shady is full circle. I aint know when i bought that, that id be one of the next 1’s out da city…”

Eminem Teases “Tobey” Music Video

Meanwhile, “Tobey” drew some interesting reactions online for wholly different reasons relating to a lot of prominent rap beef in 2024. With Kendrick Lamar and Drake going at it, maybe folks became too battle-pilled to treat Eminem’s competitive bars on the song as anything other than direct shots. Specifically, they thought that he dissed Jay-Z. But Royce Da 5’9″ quickly hopped online to debunk this rumor.

Despite all the hype behind Eminem, “Tobey,” and The Death Of Slim Shady right now, not everyone is all the way on board. “Numbers wise, Eminem is the best Detroit rapper but the gag is nobody would say that in Detroit,” the 313’s Skilla Baby recently posited. “Numbers wise, it’s Eminem but nobody in Detroit is playing Eminem right now and I was an Eminem fan as a kid. I’m a fan of Eminem but do we consider him our best rapper? I don’t think Detroit does.”

JID Reassures That His Collab Album With Metro Boomin Is Coming: “It’s Just About Making It Right”

JID and Metro Boomin are two of hip-hop’s most in-demand artists right now without question. Both have put together some of the best projects, especially in the mainstream, through the halfway mark of the 2020 decade. For the superstar producer, you have him and 21 Savage’s SAVAGE MODE II and HEROES & VILLAINS. Additionally, WE DON’T TRUST YOU and its quick follow-up WE STILL DON’T TRUST YOU are some of the biggest of 2024, partially due to their fueling of the Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef. For JID, it is not as expansive of a catalog. However, The Forever Story is arguably the most complete body of work over the last four years.

These reasons are why it was such a huge deal when they revealed that they were in the process of cooking up a collaboration project back in March of 2023. Metro Boomin’s tweet basically set hip-hop Twitter ablaze, “Got a lot of new music coming but when me and @JIDsv drop 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😵‍💫”. JID then confirmed that it was an album and not just a single after one user originally claimed, “Metro Boomin Teases His Song With JID”. Since that bombshell, both have been repeatedly asked if it still in the works.

JID And Metro Boomin Are Hard At Work

Each and every time, both of them have reassured fans and interviewers that they are still on course to get this done. JID did more of the same after a recent interview. “We’re working on that project every single day… We have so much music, it’s just about making it right… “It’s happening for sure”, JID clarified. He also vaguely hinted that he has been working on a ton of other things right now too, so who knows what that could mean. The only question is now, “when is the Metro tape happening?”. The Georgia rapper has previously not wanted to give anyone false on hope on that detail. We would not be surprised if it is not until later this year or maybe early 2025. Metro also recently just revealed that him and NAV are cheffing something up too, so no one should be too optimistic as of now.

What are your thoughts on JID claiming that his album with Metro Boomin is still on the way? Will this be one of the best trap tapes of all time when it drops? When do you see them dropping this and why? Do you want to see them grab any features for it? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding JID and Metro Boomin. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Ice Cube Expands BIG3 Bringing New Teams to Miami and Houston

image

Ice Cube recently announced the expansion of his BIG3 basketball league, to Houston and Miami. 

Earlier this year, Cube expressed his vision to transition the BIG3 from hosting games on the road to establishing home teams across the nation, with Los Angeles being his first acquisition. Looks like he’s making progress.

Get this, Bloomberg reported on Wednesday (July 3), that Eric Mullins and Milton Carroll purchased a franchise in Houston, and last month, businessman Heath Freeman acquired a unit in Miami. Freeman stated, “I am honored to join Ice Cube and [co-founder] Jeff Kwatinetz at the BIG3 and bring a new professional basketball team to Miami.”

He added, “BIG3 is shaping the future of basketball; the gameplay is dynamic and nuanced, and the product on the court appeals to the audiences in this incredibly fast-growing region. Basketball fans across South Florida can rest assured that this franchise will soon add to our great region’s winning sports pedigree.”

Here’s what Cube said in an exclusive interview with VIBE prior to the announced expansion: 

“We’d love to be in Toronto, New York, Miami, Chicago, the Bay Area, DC area, Baltimore, DMV, St. Louis, Kansas City, Detroit,” he said. “We’d love to be in Jersey. We actually got a game in Newark this year.”

ICYMI, Cube also mentioned his attempts to recruit newly-drafted Indiana Fever player Caitlin Clark ahead of the 2024 WNBA season. Genius PR move. Here’s what he said:

”Her impact on the ratings is something that’s undeniable. She was doing better ratings than the NBA,” he said of the talented athlete. “As a league, you want that kind of star power. It would raise the bar for everybody. If another player comes along with that kind of impact, of course, we would go after them.”

Cube added, “It’s something that our sponsors and everybody was looking at, and if we would’ve landed her, it would have meant the league would’ve been able to collect more dollars from all our partners and sponsors. It would’ve been a big win for the whole league.”

USA Men’s Olympic Team Arrives Vegas for Training Camp

image

It’s almost time for the Summer Olympics in Paris, France and the U.S. men’s Olympic basketball team is gearing up for their run at another gold medal. 

Head Coach Steve Kerr reflect and eluded that if other countries are improving, the U.S. must also find ways to advance.

“Maybe we’ll show that one to the guys,” Kerr said. “I love that. And it has to be our attitude this summer.”

After extensive planning, the U.S. Olympic team, aiming for a fifth consecutive gold medal at the Paris Games, is set to begin training in Sin City.

The first practice is on Saturday, marking the start of a four-day training camp before their exhibition opener against Canada on Wednesday. 

Hear me out, team Canada has a crew and they should not be taken lightly.

Players began arriving in Las Vegas on Thursday, with Stephen Curry being the first to check in, highlighting his eagerness for his Olympic debut. Although the 12 players are familiar with each other, the process of becoming a cohesive team starts in earnest on Saturday.

“I feel like it starts when it gets there, because that’s when you really see each other eye-to-eye,” said Bam Adebayo, who is pursuing his second gold medal after winning in Tokyo three years ago. 

“You have those conversations, you have those many conversations within what we’re going through, what we’re trying to do. And that’s when it’s time to really be honest about what we want to do.”

ICYMI, last year’s World Cup was another humbling experience for the U.S.; after finishing seventh in 2019, they placed fourth in Manila. 

The explanation for these stumbles was that the U.S. wasn’t fielding the best possible roster for those tournaments. 

While securing big names like Kevin Durant and LeBron James for the Olympics is one thing, getting them to commit to the World Cup in back-to-back summers is another.

This team has been assembled with a different outcome in mind. James returns to the Olympic team for the first time since 2012, seeking his third gold, and Durant aims for a record fourth basketball gold. 

Five other players—Adebayo, Devin Booker, Jrue Holiday, Jayson Tatum, and Anthony Davis—each have one gold. The first-time Olympians include Tyrese Haliburton, Anthony Edwards, Curry, Kawhi Leonard, and Joel Embiid, whom the U.S. persuaded to play despite France’s efforts to have the Philadelphia star represent the host nation in Paris.

Good luck team USA.

Ryan Garcia Expelled From World Boxing Council After Racist Rant on ‘X’ Using N-Word, Disparaging Muslims and George Floyd

image

We are warning you ahead of time, the following report regarding Ryan Garcia is disturbing. 

Boxer Ryan Garcia, known for his endearing support of Donald Trump, has been banned by the World Boxing Council (WBC) following racist comments made on social media platform X.

Let’s be clear. He seemingly made the remarks from his account on a Spaces session, and after he was barely apologetic. Disgusting.

ICYMI, Garcia, is already serving a suspension for steroid use, allegedly made the offensive remarks about Muslims, the Ku Klux Klan, and George Floyd. Yes, we dragged George Floyd into his diatribe. 

In the recorded content from on X, Garcia reportedly stated, “I hate n—–s” and “I’m anti-Black.” 

He allegedly said he is anti Black. What a deplorable loser.

Garcia even went on to claim affiliation with the KKK. The Klan. You can’t make this up.

When a voice on the call suggested killing “the next George Floyd” with an AK-47, Garcia allegedly responded by saying they should “bring George Floyd back to life and kill that n—– again.” 

His comments also targeted Muslims, reportedly saying, “F— all you Muslims that rape little kids.”

The remarks quickly spread online, prompting WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman to expel Garcia from the organization. 

Good. Goodbye. Good riddance.

In response, Garcia posted a now-deleted message on X, where he appeared to retract his statements: “I was trolling I want all the killing to stop … I love everyone sorry if I offended you,” according to The Associated Press.

Garcia has transformed himself into a right-wing social media influencer over the past year as his boxing career declined. Somebody told him this was a winning brand. They lied to him.

Earlier this year, the Trump campaign highlighted Garcia’s endorsement, reflecting a reliance on social media clout over reputable figures with institutional knowledge. 

This endorsement was part of Trump’s broader strategy to use combat sports figures to bolster his campaign.

Garcia’s connections to Trump’s movement are evident, and his racist remarks, along with his connection  to QAnon-adjacent conspiracies, align him closely with many other Trump-supporting MAGA influencers.

Anyway the Trump support is what it is. But the open Klansman racism is probably the end of Garcia’s already faltering career. Bye!

French Montana Takes New York ‘To The Moon’ In His High-Energy New Video With Tourmates Fabolous And Fivio Foreign

The sky’s the limit for French Montana in the video for his new single “To The Moon” featuring fellow New Yorkers Fabolous and Fivio Foreign. The three Big Apple natives throw a block party for the ages in the video, complete with cars doing burnouts, dirt bikes popping wheelies, and dozens of locals vibing out to the boisterous instrumental.

The release of “To The Moon” highlights how hard-working French is — the Bronx rapper is just six months removed from the release of his last mixtape, Mac & Cheese 5, and yet, he’s already dropping new singles like there’s no tomorrow. “To The Moon” samples Jamaican dancehall titan Cutty Ranks’ 1991 staple “The Stopper (Main Attraction Remix),” and also kicks off the tour headlined by the three New York mixtape rap mainstays.

The Gotta See It To Believe It Tour begins August 1st in Wallingford, Connecticut, and runs through August 25th in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. You can find tickets and more information here. The mini-tour wisely sticks to the Northeast, hitting mid-size venues that the artists are guaranteed to sell out — these veterans are showing the youngsters who have been trying to fill arenas how it should be done.

Summer Walker & Her New Man Let Their Love Sparkle Like Fourth Of July Fireworks On IG

How do those lyrics in Katy Perry’s smash hit go? “Baby, you’re a firework / Come on, let your colors burst”? Summer Walker and her new man, Coop Cashington, were certainly people in awe, awe, awe” after sharing some pics from their night on the Fourth of July. According to The Shade Room, the Georgia born R&B star uploaded the recap to her Instagram, as well as her Story. The pretty fresh couple took a yacht out on the water, presumably to cuddle up privately and get a stunning view of some fireworks. Summer and Coop were patriotic with their beach-ready outfits as well. The “Playing Games” artist sported a cute matching white bikini set along with a same-colored lacey skirt cover and sun hat.

Cashington opted for a shirtless look but threw on some light blue swim trunks and a navy-blue Atlanta Braves flat bill cap. Both look extremely lovey dovey while sharing loads of smooches in addition to candid and plandid poses. Even though they appear to be enjoying each other’s company under the night sky, fans are still not seeing how this is going to last long. The Neighborhood Talk‘s comment section was absolutely filled to the brim with skeptics, with one person writing, “She date anybody that DM her”.

Another adds, “She like j Lo, both are allergic to being single. Like please have some alone time & heal”. Coop Cashington was also receiving a lot strays. “The type is dusty”. “All her n****s be looking fruity”. “Whooooaa I can hear the lyrics now ‘You wasnt my type but I let you pipe’ cause wtf 🤣🤣🤣🤣”. It is never good to see people hate on love for another. But you have to give it up to them for being consistent. Ever since him and Summer Walker made things official back in April, the former was accused of harassment, revenge porn, and more. Whether they last or not remains to be seen. However, we are happy to see Coop and Summer happy.

What are your thoughts on Summer Walker celebrating the Fourth of July with her new boyfriend? Do you see this couple lasting for a long time, why or why not? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Summer Walker.
