Lil Skies Gets Candid About “PAIN” On New Single
It goes without saying that it’s been a rough couple of months for Lil Skies. At the beginning of June, the Pennsylvania-born performer was reportedly arrested in Chambersburg. He’s accused of failing to exchange insurance information with another driver after a car accident. Fortunately, it looks like he was quick to get back to work after the incident, as he recently unveiled his new single “Pain.”
As the name suggests, the track is about the hardships Lil Skies has run into throughout his life, and how they’ve impacted who is today. He details becoming fiercely self-reliant as a result of betrayal and believing in his own career, which he thinks has a greater purpose. The song features mellow, melancholy production and laid-back vocals. It also arrived alongside an accompanying music video, in which Lil Skies is seen singing in a room by himself, lying in a pile of cash, and more.
It stays true to the darker themes Lil Skies has been tapping into over the past few months, following tracks like “Runnin Thru The Fire,” “Death,” and more. So far, fans are enjoying the new track, and claiming that it reminds them of some of his older material that blew him up in the first place. What do you think of Lil Skies’ new track? What about its accompanying music video? Will you be adding “Pain” to your summer playlist or not? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Busta Rhymes Previews Remix Of Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” At Essence Festival
Over the weekend, Busta Rhymes took the stage at the 2024 Essence Festival in New Orleans, where he dropped a major hint at what could be to come. As he finished up his set and prepared to walk offstage, he urged his DJ to play an apparent remix of Kendrick Lamar’s hit diss track “Not Like Us.” Busta Rhymes laid down some bars of his own on the reimagined version, and unsurprisingly, the crowd went wild.
The fun moment left listeners eager to hear more of the remix, though it’s unclear whether or not he plans to release it. Either way, they’re glad to see Busta get in on Kendrick and Drake’s lyrical battle, which has been one of the most talked about feuds of the year.

Busta Rhymes Gives His Fans An Exciting Surprise At The 2024 Essence Festival
While Busta Rhymes certainly appeared to be in good spirits upon hearing fans’ reactions to his apparent “Not Like Us” remix, he did express disappointment with the audience at another point in the show. Apparently, he spotted some attendees sitting down and filming on their phones, which he was not at all pleased with. He went off as a result, and the clip quickly began circulating online. “A-yo, f**k them camera phones, too. Let’s get back to interacting like humans. Put them weird-a** devices down,” he yelled. “I ain’t from that era. Them s**ts don’t control the soul. F**k your phone.”
The tense moment prompted a debate among social media users. While most think he had a good point, some accused him of going overboard, and inaccurately gauging his fans’ stamina. What do you think of Busta Rhymes previewing a possible “Not Like Us” remix during his recent performance at the 2024 Essence Festival in New Orleans? Are you looking forward to hearing the full version? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Busta Rhymes Teases Possible Remix To Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’
Busta Rhymes has teased a possible remix to Kendrick Lamar’s monumental diss aimed at Drake, ‘Not Like Us,’ dropping a snippet that features new bars.
DeMar DeRozan Got Welcomed By Kings Fans In Sacramento While ‘Not Like Us’ Played
The NBA is heading to Las Vegas for Summer League later this week, but before that, a few teams are participating in the California Classic Summer League in San Francisco and Sacramento. On Saturday night, a collection of Sacramento Kings players took on the Chinese National Team at Golden 1 Center, and at one point, the latest addition to the team’s roster showed up.
The Kings pulled off a sign-and-trade earlier in the evening to acquire DeMar DeRozan from the Chicago Bulls — the San Antonio Spurs were also involved in the deal. It had previously been reported that DeRozan was in town to meet with Sacramento’s decision makers, and ultimately, an arrangement got sorted out to bring DeRozan in as a running mate for De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis. And as an added bonus, because there were a ton of Kings fans in the arena to watch the team, DeRozan got to show up to a hero’s welcome, all while the Kendrick Lamar track “Not Like Us” played.

DeRozan joined Kings owner Vivek Ranadive, who presumably spent a ton of time talking to him throughout the day. And of course, the soundtrack couldn’t have been much better, as DeRozan appeared in the music video that Lamar dropped earlier this week and joined him on stage as he performed the song at The Pop Out last month.
Nicki Minaj Has Fans Convinced She’s Mocking Megan Thee Stallion’s First Week Sales
Late last month, Megan Thee Stallion finally unveiled her eagerly anticipated third studio album, Megan. The album, which boasts appearances from the likes of GloRilla and UGK, has been a hit among fans so far. Unfortunately, however, critics have been quick to jump at any opportunity to drag the “Hiss” rapper.
Recently, for example, it was revealed that the project sold just over 64K album-equivalent units in its first week. While this is certainly no lousy feat, fans think her longtime rival Nicki Minaj is already throwing shade. Yesterday, for example, the “FTCU” performer took to X to share an image of Chucky wearing a devious smile and holding up a camcorder.

Nicki Minaj Shares Mysterious Chucky Meme
She didn’t include a caption, leaving the meme up for interpretation, but commenters are convinced this was directed at Meg. A few minutes later, she followed up with yet another Chucky image. Of course, it’s unconfirmed whether or not this was intended as shade. She shared the posts right as reports that Meg had millions of streams removed from her album on Spotify due to alleged botting circulated online, however. Fortunately, it doesn’t appear as though Meg is too bothered. She’s currently gearing up to embark on the Europe and UK leg of her “Hot Girl Summer” tour, which begins tonight with a performance in Paris.
As for Nicki, she made headlines last week for sharing a lengthy rant about her former manager Deb Antney for revealing that she once reached out to Lil Kim behind her back. Over the weekend, the two seemingly made amends, as they were spotted together on Instagram Live previewing an unreleased song. What do you think of Megan Thee Stallion’s new album Megan reportedly selling 64K in its first week? What about fans speculating that Nicki Minaj was shading her with Chucky memes? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Playboi Carti Looks Locked In During Rolling Loud Europe Set As Fans Pray For The New Album
Let’s use our imagination real quick: it’s 2060, your grandchild just took his first steps, and Playboi Carti finally released the follow-up album to Whole Lotta Red. While many fans hope that we get this new project in 2024 after relentless teases and promises, this future fantasy is the more likely outcome at this point. But that doesn’t mean that we won’t wait patiently as long as he keeps engaging with fans, as he recently did in electric fashion at Rolling Loud Vienna over the weekend. On Opium’s Instagram page (or Carti’s finsta, maybe? A promo account? Who knows?), a new picture appeared of the Atlanta rapper at the festival, and it’s the clearest photo we’ve gotten of him in quite a while.
Furthermore, delusional fans online (don’t worry, so are we) hope that this suggests the album is coming very soon, and that these new performances will fuel something greater. What’s more is that producer Cardo recently spoke on “finishing up” Playboi Carti’s new album very recently, adding fuel to that fire. “I don’t know, man, it’s been going crazy. That’s all I know… In a good way. It’s been crazy fun,” he expressed in a new video.

In addition to all this, it’s not like Playboi Carti stopped giving us song snippets previewing his work, as the most recent of these landed just a couple of weeks ago. Still, they did become much less frequent after the barrage of new tracks in late 2023 and early 2024. So no one really knows what’s going on with this new album or why it hasn’t dropped yet, whether because he’s a perfectionist, leaks, label issues, and all those other speculative coping mechanisms. Maybe, just maybe, we’ll get an answer to this soon.

Meanwhile, we know that as long as Playboi Carti continues to perform, he can maintain a whole lot of hype and excitement around him and his artistry regardless of new album drops. He ranked among the best sets at Summer Smash this year, a tall order with such a stacked lineup. Hopefully these festival sets and the like continue to build off one another and are contributing to upcoming releases. Also, with a lot of allegations emerging against him and Opium in the past few years, we can’t imagine that this made things any easier.

Lil Wayne Claims “Biggest Green Bay Packers Fan” Title Over Justin Timberlake
Lil Wayne is a massive Green Bay Packers fan, and Twitter would do well to remember that before he has to start fighting Justin Timberlake. Moreover, Weezy recently and comically responded to a viral tweet showing the most famous celebrity fans of each NFL team, and J.T. was their pick for the Packers. The New Orleans MC responded by quote-tweeting this list with a picture of him performing at the NFC Divisional Playoff game between the Seattle Seahawks and his favorite team in 2020 in Wisconsin. Maybe these superstars will have to fight over this “most famous fan” title, or they will simply continue to root for their favs together.
Of course, this is a pretty interesting moment to talk about Justin Timberlake, with Lil Wayne or not, due to his recent DWI arrest that took the Internet by storm. “We’ve been together through ups and downs and lefts and rights, and it’s been a tough week, but you’re here, and I’m here and nothing can change this moment right now,” he recently said at a Chicago concert, seemingly addressing the incident. “I know sometimes I’m hard to love, but you keep on loving me and I love you right back. Thank you so much.”

Lil Wayne Claims He’s More Of A Packers Fan Than Justin Timberlake
As for Tunechi, he recently drummed up some controversy of his own thanks to his performance at New Orleans’ Essence Festival over the weekend. While he came out repping Young Money, he didn’t appear alongside his Cash Money brethren like Birdman and a couple of Hot Boys during their reunion… which Lil Wayne’s solo set was technically a part of. Furthermore, it seems like a very complicated situation overall with a lot of conflicting messages throughout. Hopefully it’s more of a logistics and planning issue and not some often tense relations between the collective’s members.
Meanwhile, Lil Wayne doesn’t have to do much to prove his sports fandom. He recently featured on basketball star Flau’jae Johnson’s “Came Out A Beast,” and his thoughts on various athletes and matches always make headlines. We’ll see if F. Baby and Justin Timberlake ever address this debacle, and what will happen to the Green Bay Packers. A divided fanbase certainly can’t be a good omen…
