Juicy J Promises 7 Albums Next Year, Seemingly Hints At Retirement

by

Juicy J has revealed that he plans to release seven albums in 2024. “I got about 7 albums I’m dropping 2024 I never worked this hard in my life,” the iconic rapper and producer wrote on X, formerly Twitter. However, he also lowkey hinted that he would be retiring after such a packed release schedule. “After this I’m gonna buy a house on the beach let my hair grow all the way out & become a full time hippie [trophy emoji] ya dig?” his post continued.

While Juicy released the mixtape Mental Trillness earlier this year, he hasn’t dropped a full album since 2020. The Hustle Continues peaked at #68 on the Billboard Album 200, a major jump from 2017’s Rubba Band Business, which barely charted at #191. However, few of Juicy’s solo projects have made much of a chart impact. His best solo project by far was 2013’s Stay Trippy. That peaked at #4 while also topping the US Rap album chart.

Juicy J Expresses Concern About The State Of Rap

Juicy’s plan to release seven albums next year comes after he expressed concern about the state of the music industry. Last month, Juicy proposed drastic measures to combat a decline in rap sales. “I don’t a lot of people don’t want to hear this, but rap music is down 40%. Check the charts. Check the math. What are we, as rappers, producers, composers, going to do about this shit. Because it’s down 40% this year. Do your research. This is a fact,” Juicy noted.

His solution was to host a roundtable of rap’s brightest minds. “Let’s have a conversation. What are we gonna do? We gotta figure some shit out. We gotta sit down and talk. Let’s have a meeting, let’s meet up somewhere and have a big ass f-cking meeting. Let’s talk about this sh-t, how we can turn this sh-t around. Because this is how we eat. This is how we make money,” he suggested. However, the industry will have to wait until next year to see if Juicy’s mammoth release schedule can help fix the problem he perceives in the business.

G Herbo Sentencing Date Reportedly Moving To Early 2024

by

Agreeing to a plea deal isn’t easy for any rapper to do, especially after witnessing the ridicule Gunna faced for signing one in his YSL RICO case. However, G Herbo felt it was best for him and his family to follow in the “fukumean” artist’s footsteps with his own wire fraud and identity theft investigation back in the summer. The Chicago rapper and his crew were arrested in December 2020, at which time they were indicted on fourteen charges. Among them were “booking trips, services, and other luxurious purchases while using stolen identities” on numerous occasions.

In addition, Herbo was in police custody in July 2023 due to illegal gun possession, only potentially worsening what lies ahead at his sentencing. Before accepting a plea, he was looking at up to 20 years in prison. Interestingly, the lyricist was in trouble again for lying to federal agents about his fraud case in 2021 after denying his guilt. As 2023 comes to a close, many thought Herb might have answers by now, but according to @ChicagoScene88 until Twitter, he’ll get to spend the holiday season with his children before heading to court in the new year.

“G Herbo’s (NLMB) sentencing is moving forward to January 11, 2024,” they announced on Sunday (November 19). It’s unclear exactly what caused the delay, though social media users are pointing out that Herbo will be happy to have more time to secure funds to bulk up his commissary money through posting advertisements on his Instagram page. “That boy Herb been getting that commissary money ready, all them damn weed promos,” one person commented on @akademiks’ page.

It’s already been almost six months since G Herbo accepted a plea deal in his wire fraud and identity theft case, but still, the “Chi-raq” collaborator is waiting on the final details of how much time he’ll be serving for his crimes. Read more about the agreement between the embattled rapper and prosecutors at the link below, and leave your estimate as to what his sentence will be in the comments.

Offset Promises New Album In February Of Next Year, Might Collab With Eldest Son

by

It seems like Offset’s new album SET IT OFF really inspired him to put in work in the studio, because that album’s cycle in media coverage and playlist rotation isn’t even over and he’s already planning two steps ahead. Moreover, TMZ Hip Hop recently caught up with him in Beverly Hills and said that he will release another album in February of next year. While this is very exciting news for fans, apparently this might be a family project of sorts for the Georgia rapper, too. In addition to this, he also said that his eldest son Jordan’s been working hard on his beats, and might be getting a credit on this next project.

“I would, I definitely would,” Offset replied when asked whether he’d ever put his children on an album or song. I got something coming out with my son, anyway. Not a song, though, but you’ll see it. You’ll see, it comes out Friday. Next album dropping February. Exclusive, I just told y’all that.” Apparently, the outlet also determined that he referred to his oldest son Jordan’s production and explained that the project for Friday didn’t end up panning out due to some tweaks, but these statements don’t show up in the clip below.

Furthermore, this is promising for Offset, whose latest October album performed very well and garnered acclaim. However, this time was also an emotive and perseverant one for him, as it lined up closely with the anniversary of a tragic loss in his family and career. “The times we spent is priceless what we built in this game they never wanted to give us our flowers we influenced the world,” the former Migo dedicated to Takeoff on Wednesday (November 1). “I Love you Take you still here with us I just know you are!!!! Migo 4Life!!!!!!”

Joe Biden Should Drop Out Of 2024 Presidential Race, Bill Maher Believes

by

Joe Biden has a lot of pressure to succeed in 2024, not just as the current president, but as opponent to Donald Trump, Ron DeSantis, and other nominees from both parties. With a lot of concern for the radical politics on either side of the aisle, many hope that he will succeed with another term that aims to balance out both sides. Still, there’s a lot of frustration with the commander-in-chief’s first term, and all his compromises won’t convince many of his detractors. Of course, the other important element to consider is that many of his own political party would rather not see him try again.

One such critic is Bill Maher, popular talk show host and commentator who doesn’t think Biden will be the one to defeat the Republicans this time around. Moreover, Maher made these remarks on his show Real Time, which controversially returned amid the now-resolving WGA writer’s strike. However, the HBO alum didn’t just have criticism; he actually said that Joe Biden had a good first term and reinstated some peace and order in the executive office. Regardless, he thinks that the former Delaware senator won’t be able to beat someone like Donald Trump, which he believes is crucial to the 2024 race.

Bill Maher’s Takedown Of Joe Biden

As far as reasons why, the media personality pointed to Joe Biden’s age, physical state, and mental clarity as reasons for him to entrust the mission in someone else. Whether he’s actually capable of completing his presidential task with competence is another story; Bill Maher thinks it’s already too late. Democrats have their doubts, and that’s enough to stop a race dead in its tracks. Also, Maher didn’t stop there, as he also took aim at Mitch McConnell’s frailty and debatable state of awareness.

Meanwhile, of course Donald Trump caught his fair share of strays as well, such as hilarious tips for his cellmate. With all this in mind, the 2024 U.S. presidential election is shaping up to be a crucial, volatile, and chaotic affair. We’ll see what the future of the nation holds. With that in mind, for more big updates on Joe Biden, stay posted on HNHH.

Usher Will Bring “Tasteful” Strip Club Aesthetic To Super Bowl Performance

by

There’s a full on Usher renaissance going on in 2023. The rapper has scored his biggest hit in a few years with “Good Good.” The song features contributions from 21 Savage and Summer Walker and has been climbing up the charts for weeks. It will serve as one of the singles from the R&B legend’s upcoming new album, which is slated to release in February of next year. The announcement of the new project is big news for fans, but it was secondary to even bigger news.

Usher was officially confirmed as the headlining performer for the upcoming 2024 Super Bowl halftime show. He’s following up a highly-anticipated show from Rihanna last year and a massive collaboration between Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, and more the year before. The show will take place on the same day his new album is released, February 11, 2024. He’s had high praise for the opportunity to take the stage during the big game. In an interview released with the announcement he called it the “honor of a lifetime.”

Usher Makes Big Halftime Show Promises

Now a new report from Page Six is elaborating on the singer’s vision for his halftime show. The singer has been using stripper poles and accompanying dancers during his Las Vegas residency for months and they’ve received rave reviews. A source they spoke to claimed that he was planning on bringing that with him to the Super Bowl albeit with the dancers “dressed in a tasteful manner.”

Usher is clearly taking his Super Bowl responsibilities pretty seriously. “This is a moment that I’ve waited my entire life for and I am not coming to disappoint,” he said in an interview about the performance. There’s also been speculation that following the performance, he could take off on a massive world tour. What do you think of Usher promising to bring Atlanta’s strip club culture to his Superbowl Halftime show performance? Let us know in the comment section below.

Cardi B Updates Fans On New Album & Tour, Says She Wants To Work With This MC

by

Cardi B’s promo appearances for her new Megan Thee Stallion collab single “Bongos” has been absolutely relentless so far. Her latest appearance, on Andy Cohen’s show Watch What Happens Live, also gave fans some insight into her next career moves. Moreover, the Bronx artist answered some of Cohen’s questions about the timeline of her new album, her sophomore effort, and its supporting tour. First things first: unfortunately, Bardi season won’t kick off in full force with an LP until next year. However, at least she confirmed that there will, in fact, be a big tour after her project comes out.

Other than that, she didn’t offer too many details, but she came through with the fun and vibrant content and persona that we know her for. For example, when asked by Andy Cohen what her Real Housewives tagline would be, the 30-year-old couldn’t help but reference a big controversy she faced earlier this year. “The only thing I throw harder than mics is shade,” Cardi B said to the camera with a laugh. What do you think, folks: is she getting an invite anytime soon?

Jokes aside, the “Up” hitmaker also answered a question about a long-rumored and awaited collaboration: Lil Kim. “I really do want one,” Cardi B remarked. “I’m going through the songs on my album right now… I want us to have such a great, undeniable song because I know people are going to judge it and be so harsh of it. So, I want to make sure it is the greatest song. But I would love, love, love to do a song with Lil Kim. I love her. And not because she’s Lil Kim, but because she’s such a nice person.”

Bardi Speaks On Lil Kim Collab Possibility

Meanwhile, we’ll see if she pulls out any other big singles, announcements, or teases in the lead-up to CB2. Considering the incredibly hectic media cycle in the industry, we’re sure it will fight to remain a big part of the conversation. How do you think her career is going to develop and deliver in the next few months? Let us know in the comments and check back in with HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Cardi B.

Super Bowl Halftime Show Shortlist Rumored To Include Jack Harlow & Miley Cyrus

by

With just a couple of months yet, it seems like both the industry and the fans are gearing up for Super Bowl LVIII in 2024. Moreover, new reports from HITS Daily Double suggest rumors for its halftime show’s shortlist of performers, and they might surprise you. Included in this speculation are the following artists as of writing this article: Jack Harlow, Miley Cyrus, Bad Bunny, and Harry Styles. Interestingly enough, buzz around this performance lines up with the recent announcement of Harlow’s new tour. Of course, despite this connection, fans had a lot to say about these potential picks.

To start off with the Kentucky MC, fans online got him trending amid discussions that it would be a poor move in many’s eyes. Furthermore, detractors’ main reasoning is that he doesn’t have enough massive mainstream hits to carry a whole Super Bowl performance. Instead, many seemed to favor Miley Cyrus in comparison, as she has a lot of different hits across her many different eras. While these discussions can turn negative quick, it’s worth noting that these are all huge artists, and picking at straws leads to some important judgement calls.

The Next Super Bowl’s Halftime Show Performer Is Reportedly Getting Picked

On that note of big hits, Bad Bunny certainly has them in spades, as the Puerto Rican superstar already fills out three-hour performances of his best songs. However, some questioned how this would translate for a U.S. audience, while others reveled in the idea of boomers getting mad at the Latino artist gracing the country’s biggest stage (which he was already on). Finally, Harry Styles is another industry titan with a lot of beloved songs to share. Maybe it sounds like the safe pick, but consider that there are always special guests at the Super Bowl to make the show that much more monumental.

Meanwhile, this news follows other rumored reports that the higher-ups removed Lizzo from this shortlist due to recent accusations of harassment and toxic workplace environments against her. If anything, the proximity of these reports suggests that they’re really narrowing things down. We will have to wait and see if it results in an official announcement anytime soon. On that note, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on these artists and the next Super Bowl halftime show.
