Kelsey Nicole Accuses Megan Thee Stallion Of “Betraying Her,” Opens Up On Decision To Speak Out

by

Kelsey Nicole says Megan Thee Stallion “had been betraying” her prior to the night she was shot by Tory Lanez in 2020. Nicole, who was in the car during the incident, opened up on her decision to speak out during an interview with The Danza Project on Sunday.

“It took a lot for me to come and do this,” she said. “Part of that is, I wanted to be sure when I did speak that I wasn’t speaking from a place of anger. I’m able to articulate myself well enough and not allow the drama to overshadow how I truly feel. I think that’s very important. I didn’t want to take an interview or sit down with anybody until I was past that part.”

Nicole added that she’s since decided to “open up more,” and “let people into my life a little bit and maybe this will help them understand me more. Maybe my story will help somebody else. And I think it’s also part of the healing process. Maybe this will help.” Regardless of her side of the story, when The Neighborhood Talk shared her comments on Instagram, many fans took Megan’s side. “Using my name for likes and views. Meg wasn’t lying,” one user wrote. Another added: “A place of anger?! Girl you weren’t shot. What was you angry for?”

A San Fernando-based boutique sneaker dealer is currently recovering from a recent break-in where over $30,000 worth of high-end sneakers over the weekend.

This is actually the second time that Hype Beast Kicks were victims of a break-in since it opened in San Fernando, California three years ago. The thieves, armed and masked, smashed their way into the store in the middle of the night, making off with sneakers and merchandise worth tens of thousands of dollars.

The owners believe that they have to be harder on criminals as retail theft crimes have been on the rise on Southern California.

The surveillance footage captured the criminals arriving in a white sedan and using a rock to break the store’s display window. The thieves were seen on camera grabbing shoes and causing chaos in the store before their escape.

Dame Dash Needs Help Paying For Legal Representation In Lawsuit: Report

by

Dame Dash is finding more issues than he bargained for in a lawsuit against him from photographer Monique Bunn. Moreover, according to court documents exclusively obtained by AllHipHop, he breached his agreement with the legal firm representing him in this $51 million case, Sanders Roberts LLP. They filed a motion to withdraw as representatives of the New York City native, as well as of Damon Dash Studios, Poppington LLC, and Raquel Horn. According to the firm, all co-defendants have not fulfilled their contractual obligations, with Dash specifically being accused of not paying them properly under a retainer agreement and resulting in enforcement action against all parties.

Furthermore, the firm’s partner Felton T. Newell claimed that they spent a lot of time, energy, and resources on representing Dame Dash, but that he’s very behind on his legal bills. Apparently, this relationship broke down so heavily that Sanders Roberts LLP no longer feels able to represent him or his goals. The court will address this request on May 28, 2024, but the Roc-A-Fella executive will still have representation in the form of lawyer Xavier Robert Donaldson if the court grants the motion, as Donaldson is still representing him at press time.

Meanwhile, for those unaware, this lawsuit began in April of 2019 from photographer Monique Bunn and her lawyer Christopher Brown. The story goes that Bunn stayed at Dame Dash’s L.A. mansion for a photoshoot for his Poppington brand. According to the photographer, Jay-Z’s former partner exhibited inappropriate behavior and unlawfully kept a hard drive with over 100,000 celebrity snaps. The court cleared him of sexual assault charges, but his libel liability led to a $30,000 award for defamation to Bunn.

However, now the photographer and her attorney are seeking more action from the court, calling for a new trial to receive her due compensation for property damage. Also, Bunn has another lawsuit against Dash and his wife for $1 million for a separate defamation incident, in which they allegedly claimed she was a thief for unauthorized credit card charges in a video. He denied any and all claims and thinks that Brown is trying to extort him, as he’s already won two suits against him. The 52-year-old’s legal team thinks these are all attempts to harass and abuse the legal system for media attention. For more news and the latest updates on Dame Dash, stick around on HNHH.

Shannon Sharpe Fans Rush To His Defense After Viral Video Leads To More Speculation On His Sexuality

by

Shannon Sharpe is someone who has become a massive media personality over the last couple of years. Overall, his success is very well deserved. He is someone who provides interesting analysis, and he never ceases to make people laugh. However, with this success has come a ton of jealousy from people who are supposed to be his peers. As we have seen, numerous comedians and podcast hosts have tried to call Sharpe gay. They have spread these rumors far and wide to the point where it is out of control.

Sharpe has been gracious in light of these rumors. He refuses to give into any of it, and he tries to pay it no mind. However, sometimes, things can take on a life of their own. For instance, over the weekend, Shannon posted a video of himself outside of a store. In this video, Sharpe is standing in a peculiar fashion. This subsequently led to people calling him words like “zesty.” Furthermore, others tried to make the case that this is proof of him being in the closet. It was all very bizarre, and fans eventually rushed to his defense.

Shannon Sharpe Under More Scrutiny

In the bevy of tweets below, you can see people explaining why Shannon might be standing this way. Essentially, it likely stems from all of the injuries he has suffered during his career in the NFL. He has had hip surgeries and ankle repairs, which can make it difficult to walk normally. Unfortunately, some people would prefer to ignore these facts so they can push their own harmful narrative. That’s the internet for you. It’s not about what’s true, but what is the most entertaining explanation.

ScHoolboy Q & Rico Nasty Go Ballistic On “Pop”

by

One of the trademark formulas that ScHoolboy Q has pretty much perfected up until this point is delivery gritty bangers. Just listen to tracks like “Gangsta” and “The Purge,” for example and you will see what we mean. BLUE LIPS has some variations of that style as well across the record. “Pop,” with its heavy percussion and nasty guitar riffs, are perfect complements to ScHoolboy Q and Rico Nasty’s aggressive lyrics and cadence.

When it comes to a majority of rap albums, you are almost always looking for a strong opener to reel you in. In essence, it sets up the rest of the listening experience. “Pop” passes with flying colors in that department, as Q and Rico have great chemistry on this cut. It in its simplest form, this song is all about violence and sending warning shots to anyone trying to step up to you.

Listen To “Pop” By ScHoolboy Q & Rico Nasty

While Rico does deliver a zany performance, her verse would have been even better if it was a tad longer. “I ain’t poppin’ my s***, I keep a spear / I’m fresh as a mint, I’m hard as cement / You can’t leave a dent, demolish him, finish him.” It has so much potential based on these opening lines, but for the amount of time she had, she did make the most of it. ScHoolboy Q recently ranked this as his best album in a series of tweets, and we might have to agree with him, even if it is too early to say.

What are your thoughts on this brand-new song, “Pop,” by ScHoolboy Q and Rico Nasty? Is this the best track from BLUE LIPS, why or why not? What is your favorite element of the song and why? Is this the album of the year so far, why or why not? Who had the stronger performance? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding ScHoolboy Q and Rico Nasty. Finally, stay with us for the most informative song posts throughout the week.

Quotable Lyrics:

I probably shouldn’t walk, where I walk, n****
Socked out, watch the way you talkin’, when you talk, n**** (Uh)
Yeah (Got me f****d up, look)
I’m snatching n****s wave caps off, gang tats off
F*** yo’ set, hat get soakеd
Spilled that yolk, Figg Side

Drake Tries To Shut Down Conspiracy Theories After Finding “Illuminating” Body Wash In His Hotel

by

As one of the biggest celebrities in the world, it’s no surprise that Drake is not exempt from Illuminati conspiracy theories. Sure, he hasn’t engaged in the “Satanic” fashion choices or lyrical allusion that many tinfoil hat proponents point to with other stars to prove their sold soul. But the Toronto rapper knows very well how these accusations can start in a flash, and is taking measures to clear the air early. Moreover, he found an “illuminating” body wash in his hotel room and, in an Instagram video on his Story, warned his assistant that this is how these rumors fly.

“To my assistant, right? This is how rumors get started, bro,” Drake told his IG followers while holding up the bottle of soap, including a GIF of the Illuminati pyramid. “This is how rumors get started. Somebody in the hotel cleaning up is going to see this like, ‘Oh, oh, he’s using that ‘illuminating’ body wash, huh? That boy needs that ‘illuminating’ body wash, interesting. Interesting fact, you know, about Drake. ‘Illuminating’…” We wonder if this hygiene product (and secret society) is what’s been fueling Drizzy and J. Cole’s current Big As The What? tour across the U.S.

Jokes aside, folks know Drake these days for his sense of humor online, although it’s not like he ever went offline. Furthermore, the other day, he was fooling around with a Playboi Carti filter on IG while seemingly at a club. But the 37-year-old complained that the filter is “racist” after it worked for him, but not for his friend. It was a pretty funny moment and a notable one thanks to the two’s collaborative history, although they haven’t released anything together in quite some time.

Meanwhile, The Boy is also prone to provoking some controversy and hot debate with his Internet activity. For example, he recently liked a post about Kelsey Nicole’s first interview since the Tory Lanez and Megan Thee Stallion shooting. Considering what the OVO boss already said about the debacle, folks thought he wanted the smoke again. For more news and the latest updates on Drake, come back to HNHH.
