T.I. was arrested at an Atlanta airport after being mistaken by police for a man wanted for violently stalking a woman who also happens to be called Clifford Harris.
Month: August 2024
T.I. Was Arrested In Atlanta, But It Was Just A Misunderstanding Due To A Major Coincidence
T.I. has been subject to several legal stories over the years. However, the latest story requires no further investigation to know that it was unwarranted. A case of perhaps the most unlucky coincidence of all time.
According to TMZ, T.I. was arrested at the Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport on Sunday night, August 4, “but it was a case of mistaken identity.”
“A warrant had been issued for another man named Clifford Harris — the same as T.I.’s real name — who was wanted in Baltimore, Maryland,” TMZ relayed. “The suspect is wanted for alleged involvement in violent behavior toward a woman, stalking, and possibly involving a gun. T.I. was taken from the airport to Clayton County Jail. Since the warrant was issued out of state, the arrest triggered an automatic extradition hearing.”
Steve Sadow, T.I.’s attorney, confirmed to TMZ that T.I. had been released “within two hours of arrest,” and the judge had reviewed and dismissed the order. As of this writing, T.I. had not publicly commented on the ordeal, and he probably won’t.
Meanwhile, T.I. has been supporting Latto’s forthcoming Sugar Honey Iced Tea, and he celebrated Tiny Harris, his wife, on their 14th wedding anniversary with a video posted across his social media accounts.
Polo G Breaks Silence On His Mother Shooting At His Sister
June 21, a video surfaced on social media allegedly showing Polo G’s mother, Stacia Mac, shooting a gun at her daughter, Leilani In the viral clip, a gunshot rings off and Stacia is extremely upset as she is marching out of her mansion with what appears to be a gun in her hand. Stacia is yelling, “Get off my s**t. You tough b**ch. You tough b**ch,” while chasing her daughter. Another gunshot rings off and screams from a woman, presumably her daughter, are heard. Stacia then walks back into her home, still visibly upset.
Polo G addressed the video in a new interview with The Breakfast Club, saying that he will always intervene in situations like that because he does not want to see things “go too far.” That prompted jokes from Charlamagne, who pointed out that they were already fighting and shooting at each other. He remarked that since Polo G is from Chicago, his definition of “too far” is different from everyone else’s, which Polo laughed at.
Polo G Speaks About His Sister’s And Mother’s Relationship On The Breakfast Club

(@nojumper)Shortly after the video surfaced on Instagram, Polo G’s mother claimed that Leilani had a manic episode that night. She added that she fired shots because she wanted her off the property immediately. Leilani claimed that her mother was “jealous” of her and “wants to be a thug.” Polo G is in the middle of a difficult situation, one that Breakfast Club co-host DJ Envy asked if he started working to help resolve. He responded by saying he wants to help the two of them put their issues aside. At the same time, he also wants to “let it breathe” before attempting to do so.
Polo G recently confirmed that his next album, Hood Poet, is dropping on August 9. Polo first teased the album in 2022. However, his legal issues led to an indefinite postponement of both the album and his next tour. He was arrested in April on an illegal firearm possession charge at The Dominick Hotel in the SoHo district of New York City. Those issues seem to be behind him. At least enough for him to go forward with his album rollout. Hood Poet features collaborations from several big names, including Future, GloRilla, Offset, The Kid LAROI, Lil Durk, and more. Hopefully, Polo can mediate a peaceful resolution to the feuding family members.

Donald Trump Accuses Fani Willis Of Treating Young Thug Unfairly
Donald Trump discussed Young Thug and the ongoing YSL RICO trial in Atlanta while speaking with Adin Ross for a livestream on Monday afternoon. In doing so, he accused District Attorney Fani Willis of treating the rapper unfairly and described him as a “patriot.” Willis famously investigated Trump’s alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.
After Ross brought up Young Thug and claimed he’s being treated unfairly, Trump agreed: “I heard that actually,” he said. “So, I’ve heard about him and I’ve heard he’s being treated very unfairly by her [Willis] and I would tell her she’s gotta treat these patriots that are being all– it’s terrible. They’re going after them.” He concluded: “He’s gotta be treated fairly.” The moment has been going viral on social media.

Donald Trump Survives Assassination Attempt In Pennsylvania
Elsewhere in the interview, Trump accused the Democratic Party of staging a coup against Joe Biden. “He was not only pushed out, it was a coup,” Trump said. “I don’t know if I was brilliant or he was horrible, maybe a combination of both … he’s done tremendous damage to our country. I actually think he’s smarter than her [Kamala Harris], and I think he’s a really not smart person. She was convenient, she was there. They have much better people. All the people were better than her. They would’ve run, but they didn’t want to go through the roadblock that was her.”
Donald Trump Speaks On Young Thug’s Ongoing Trial
Describing Harris, Trump continued: “She’s ultra left, ultra radical. I just see where 99 vicious terrorists … her policies have destroyed California. San Francisco was the best city in the country and now, frankly, it’s not even livable.” Be on the lookout for further updates on Young Thug, Donald Trump, and the 2024 Presidential Election on HotNewHipHop.

LeBron James Seemingly Responds To Drake Beef Speculation
Throughout Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s beef dozens of celebrities were reacting to the songs that came from it. Any time they were vibing to each artist’s disse, the fanbase of that rapper would claim them as their own. To be honest, all of that was a big stretch. Maybe that certain person just enjoys the song for what it is and not for who its dissing. However, there have been some cases where the opposite is true, too. As for the reaches, LeBron James was essentially shunned from Drake’s fanbase due to him supporting Lamar’s tracks and The Pop Out. Because of this, some people were actually running with the idea that James had been favoring the Compton kid.
Joe Budden was one of the ones entertaining it, doing so on his self-titled podcast. What got him intrigued in this “passive-aggressive LeBron-Drake beef” was the fact that the Canadian rapper was congratulating the Olympic athletes, but not James. “I know nobody is paying too much attention to it, but it is a real thing. It’s happening”, Budden urged. “Savannah might just really love that shirt, and I don’t speak about people’s wives, but she might just really love that shirt, brand, and Kendrick, and ain’t paying what y’all doing no mind. Maybe, maybe. But LeBron posing in the picture the way he did with her in the shirt tells me that he saw the Drake post… “They’ve been going back and forth since this ‘Not Like Us’ s***.’ And it’s interesting to me”.

LeBron Will Always Have Love For Drake
However, that all seems to be over with. LeBron has supposedly been listening to the chatter around his “fractured” relationship with The Boy and decided to post a pic on his IG Story. That photo is of Drake’s Air Force 1 collaborative sneaker that reads “Love you forever” on the midsole. The NBA vet then put the “
” emoji underneath, symbolizing that their ties will never be broken. Of course, Drake’s stans got a hold of this on X and are calling him a “team switcher”.
What are your thoughts on LeBron James reposting Drake’s Air Force 1 sneaker on his IG Story amid their “beef”? Do you think they were ever at odds with one another, or was that the fanbase portraying it that way? 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 Drake and LeBron James. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the worlds of music and sports.

Jordan Adetunji Drops “KEHLANI” Remix With The Real Kehlani
Jordan Adetunji went viral on TikTok with his song “KEHLANI” earlier this year. On the track, he shouts out several people, including Tyla, and the track’s namesake, Kehlani. The song led to fans hoping that Kehlani would jump on a potential remix. After nearly four months, Kehlani acquiesced, adding her own spin to what has become a track with nearly 100 million listens on Spotify. Adetunji’s original track is left entirely untouched. He does not add any new lyrics to his parts. His verses are quick and catchy. The beat is still as catchy as ever, maybe even more than the verses. Producer Villa Beatz clearly took inspiration from the more atmospheric drill sound that Cash Cobain introduced to the New York hip-hop scene. Kehlani adds her verse between the hook and Adetunji’s second verse. She’s very blunt, looking for someone who can both match her energy and her freak.
Kehlani also brought Jordan Adetunji out at the launch party for Crash, her latest album, in June. The album received praise from her fans. Adetunji performed his viral hit there and was thankful for the opportunity to perform in front of that crowd. The Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Rookie of the Month for July caps off a very successful month by getting to work with the person his viral track is named after. Listen to “KEHLANI (REMIX)” below.
Jordan Adetunji & Kehlani – “KEHLANI (REMIX)”
Quotable Lyrics:
I like a b*tch that match my energy, act like she into me
Tell the world you mine and you not what these b*tches been to me
It’s plenty of fishes in the sea, I need me the biggest freak
Step out like my wife will bust me down like she my enemy
Oh, I need a brand new starting five, I need a new one on my mind
I just need someone to fall in line, oh-oh

‘Trap’ Star Josh Hartnett Definitely Has A Favorite Taylor Swift Album
The real horror in M. Night Shyamalan‘s Trap isn’t the psychopathic serial killer named The Butcher or even the cat-and-mouse chase between the killer and the FBI — it’s having to choose which song would be the best mid-set break in order to go to the mile long merch line only to find out that the shirt you want is sold out. That’s the terrifying stuff.
In Trap, Josh Hartnett plays the enthusiastic father/part-time murderer taking his teen daughter to see her pop idol Lady Raven. Why the concert started at 1 p.m. and was over by 4:30 p.m. is still unclear, but Shyamalan is famously mysterious.
While some of the concert scene might have seemed over-the-top, Hartnett learned first-hand that Lady Raven’s fans are actually nothing compared to the Swifties. “I became well-versed after the movie, but before I really didn’t know,” Hartnett said of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour. Harnett took his daughters to see Swift at Wembly Staduim in June. “It was wild,” Hartnett recently told People Magazine.. “I’ve never experienced anything like it: 90,000 people at Wembley Stadium losing their minds, including my two daughters.”
Hartnett might have thought that the fans in the film were exaggerating, but once he went to the tour, he got it. “Some of the stuff, while we were filming, I was thinking, ‘God, this is a little over the top. The amount of the fervor of the audience, and they know every word.’ Then I went to the concert. I was like, no, it’s exactly right.” It’s really hard to replicate the power of the Swifties when they all align into one conglomerate, but it’s similar to the inner workings of an ant colony. It’s good that Hartnett was able to see that in play out.
Obviously, Hartnett could not go to a Taylor Swift concert without doing his research, which included his favorite album. “The thing is, my kids weren’t really into pop music so much last year when we shot [Trap],” he explained. “Then when they heard the Eras Tour was coming because their friends at school were all into the concept, they just immediately became Swifties — and really hardcore Swifties. We listened to that music for six months nonstop in the car before we went to the show,” he said.
So which Era is Hartnett? While he might look like a Reputation stan, he prefers the classics. “The album that they play a lot at our house is 1989, and I like that album. It’s a good album.” Hopefully this revelation won’t start a social media war between the Swfities and the Lady Raven fans.
Trap is now in theaters.
Donald Trump Enters Adin Ross’ Stream To The Tune Of 50 Cent’s “Many Men”: Watch
Adin Ross actually got Donald Trump on stream. Last Tuesday, July 30, a repost from DJ Akademiks confirmed that the controversial streaming figure was going to have the former president of the United States on Kick. The hip-hop media pundit snagged a clip from Ross’ stream to further prove that this was a true possibility. “Officially locked in. We will have a livestream with President Donald Trump on August 5th and it’s gonna be insane”, Ross confirmed. It’s gonna be probably around 1:00 PM, eastern time. Stay up to date on my socials but it’s 100% locked in”. Well, it is August 5th, and at the time of writing it’s past 1 p.m. ET and there are people all over the world watching it unfold.
Overall, Adin Ross has been showing a lot of support for Donald Trump as of late. Akademiks is also responsible for revealing that he supposedly donated $3 million to the former POTUS’s election campaign. Additionally, these two met in person over a year ago, so this collaboration is not something totally out of the blue. Regardless of their loose previous connection, this is still one heck of a viral moment in the livestreaming community. Part of the reason for that is because of how Trump decided to enter the chat, so to speak.

Adin Ross & Donald Trump Have Broken The Internet
With dozens of right-wing supporters sitting in the background and Ross’ MAGA hat on his head, Donald walked through the door to the tune of 50 Cent’s “Many Men”. The Republican representative has always had a flair for the dramatic, so seeing him walk up to this on-the-nose song is no surprise. Obviously, this choice in music has to do with the recent and world-stopping assassination attempt of Trump in Pennsylvania almost a month ago. More is surely to come on this developing story, so be sure to comeback for any other subplots around Ross’ livestream.
What are your thoughts on Adin Ross actually getting Donald Trump to come onto his streaming platform? Will this go down as the biggest stream of all time? How do you feel about the former POTUS doing this? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.
