Future Settles Lawsuit Over “High Off Life” Album Title

by

2022 turned out to be yet another wildly successful year for Future. Although he’s more than a decade into his career as a rapper, he continues to dominate the charts and be one of the most popular emcees in the game.

His latest album, last year’s I NEVER LIKED YOU, is no exception. It officially went gold only a few weeks after its release. However, he was also dealing with some legal troubles behind the scenes.

Over the course of the past year, the Atlanta native has been in litigation for a trademark lawsuit. High Off Life, LLC claims that the 39-year-old stole their company’s name for his 2020 album. The hip-hop production company was founded in 2004, 16 years prior to the release. High Off Life contains the smash hit, “Life Is Good” and the Travis Scott featuring “Solitaires.”

The “PUFFIN ON ZOOTIEZ” rapper and his legal team originally requested that the judge dismiss the case. They say it infringes on his First Amendment rights. However, the trial evidently went through anyways.

The lawsuit has now been settled, as reports from Bloomberg Law indicate that the production company and the Atlanta native have “reached a mutually agreeable resolution.”

They will not be disclosing the exact terms of the settlement. However, a court filing says that both parties will pay their own respective attorney’s fees.

Of course, High Off Life wasn’t the only album that Future released in 2020. He followed it up with Pluto x Baby Pluto, a full-length joint album with Lil Uzi Vert. Backed by the highly successful “Drankin N Smokin,” the project showcases the duo’s chemistry.

What are your thoughts on the settlement? Comment down below. Finally, be sure to stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest updates in music and pop culture.

London On Da Track’s BM Exposes Him: “Nobody Likes [Sissies] That Take Babies From Women”

by

If you thought we were leaving baby mama drama in 2022, you’re dead wrong. This weekend, it’s Eboni Ivori chiefly stepping into the spotlight as she drags her ex, London On Da Track.

The former lovers have been explicitly feuding frequently as of late. Specifically, they came to blows after she made claims that his rumoured new girl, Shenseea, allowed her son to act inappropriately towards the co-parent’s daughter.

“It’s a shame the way Black men do everything to tear Black women down,” she wrote on her Instagram Story earlier this week. “As a race and a culture, we need to do better.”

On the next slide, things only became juicier as Eboni shared screenshots of alleged texts from London. “What’s so crazy is just the other day calling me tryin’ to come over in the middle of the night. Tryna get me over there middle of the night, now it’s all this?” her rant went on.

“I’m disgusted that a man that I’ve known for 10 years, way back when he didn’t [have] McDonald’s money, would try to go big on me,” she indirectly said to her ex. “Act like he never knew me, and try to take our daughter.”

Next, Eboni brought another of London’s baby mamas into the conversation. “The same guy that was with Summer Walker for two years. Didn’t lay eyes on her or call her or send a penny is now trying to take her again… Like how?”

From the sounds of things, Ivori is frustrated over the producer’s sudden interest in their child after years of absence. “I hate it for our baby, but you’re well on your way to ruining your reputation and career,” she said. Later she added, “Nobody likes [sissies] that take babies from women.”

For good measure, she ended with, “Run and report all that too, word for word. You probably the reason Thug locked up now, all you do is go to the police.”

Ciara Pregnancy Rumours Are Running Rampant On Social Media

by

We’re just one week into the new year, but already, pregnancy rumours are running rampant online – for one couple, at least. According to online speculation, Ciara may become a mother of four in 2023, though no official confirmation has come just yet.

The gossip actually began circulating in late 2020, though it’s only increased in recent days as social media users have been carefully eyeing her every post for any signs of a budding baby bump.

On Friday (January 6), the “Body Party” hitmaker posted a bootylicious video while wearing a cheetah print look. While she usually proudly flaunts her rock-hard figure for the camera, in this clip, the starlet was noticeably using her left arm to shield her stomach from full view.

Immediately, fans took to the comment section to call Ciara out. “Tryna hide that damn baby,” one person specifically wrote. Another pointed out, “He said he wanted one more baby,” referring to the singer’s husband, Russell Wilson.

Interestingly, the NFL player shared a tweet back in December that also sparked some pregnancy rumours. In the early half of the month, he wrote “JESUS I am Grateful!!!” This led one person to ask him, “@ciara pregnant?!”

The couple already shares two children – Sienna Princess and Win Harrison. Additionally, Ciara welcomed a son with rapper Future, who was named after her ex.

As social media users have pointed out, Wilson hasn’t held back on chiefly expressing his desire to expand his family. He and Ci are frequently referred to as “couple goals” and have been previously known to express their intimate (sometimes downright sensual) PDA on the internet for everyone to see.

Check out Twitter’s reaction to the speculation below, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

French Montana Blamed By Police For Miami Shooting

by

On Thursday night (January 5), reports indicate that there was a shooting on the set of a music video. It was seemingly for French Montana and Rob49‘s new collab, “Igloo.”

Although, the “No Stylist” rapper says the event was instead just a celebration for his latest album, Coke Boys 6. 10 people were shot, including Rob49 himself and Montana’s bodyguard, who is reportedly in critical condition.

However, police are now blaming the 38-year-old for what transpired. Miami Gardens Police Chief, Delma Noel-Pratt says event organizers didn’t obtain the necessary permits. This is reportedly a violation of city policy.

“If the necessary agencies were notified ahead of time and protocol followed, police officers would have been in place to safeguard the community and assist with deterring and responding, if needed, to any situation that may arise,” says Noel-Pratt.

Furthermore, footage obtained by TMZ allegedly shows the Morocco native and others taking to a nearby KFC restaurant for cover. They reportedly stayed inside for 30-40 minutes, until cops arrived at the scene.

On Friday (January 6), the “Unforgettable” rapper took to his Twitter account to make a statement. Notably, he doesn’t mention anything about filming a music video. “Last night, I was in Miami celebrating the release of my CB6 mixtape w/ friends at a local restaurant. We unfortunately were at the wrong place, at the wrong time when an incident took place that left people hurt. Our thoughts & prayers are w/ the victims & families at this time,” writes Montana.

Of course, the sixth instalment of the Coke Boys series did release yesterday (January 6). It boasts features from the likes of Kodak Black, Benny The Butcher, Stove God Cooks and more. DJ Drama takes care of the hosting duties, making it an official Gangsta Grillz mixtape. The Money Heist Edition also dropped, which contains nine extra songs.

TMZ also reports that all of the victims are expected to survive. Finally, make sure to stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest updates.

Jake Paul Reacts To Rumors Of $2.5 Million Fight With Tommy Fury

by

After a long time spent asking, it seems Jake Paul took things a step further to get Tommy Fury to fight him. Moreover, rumors had spread around the Internet that he offered Fury $2.5 million for a fight, after a few failed attempts. Recently, the Paul brother took to Twitter to make a cheeky statement concerning the boxer.

“I cannot confirm nor deny this accurate statement,” he wrote. “What I can confirm is Tommy Fury is never going to see the kind of money he is being offered to step in the ring with me. And yet he’s still on the run.”

Readers likely remember that the last we heard from the two was a four-round knockout prediction from the British star. While this kind of money would probably entice most to fight, Fury has bailed out before. When he tapped out the first time, it was due to injury, and later had issues getting into the country.

Regardless, fans disagreed on the fight’s prospects and whether Fury should even engage. “It is wrong Jake Paul is the biggest name in boxing,” wrote one user on Twitter. “The sport should be ashamed. But fair play to the guy. Its no accident he’s at the top.”

Even with boxing purists shaking their fists at the podcaster and vlogger, they give him credit for the hustle. Also, he recently partnered with the Cleveland Browns as a member of their social media team. While boxing may be his main endeavor, he’s seeking a bag with everything he does.

Many respect that grind, even if seeing his name in Twitter replies can get exhausting. “Honestly think there’s just too much at stake for him,” said a faithful tweeter about Fury. “He can’t possibly bear losing to YouTuber Jake Paul. Forget the money, he could never look his dad and Tyson in the eyes again. He doesn’t want to take the risk.”

Still, what do you think of Jake Paul’s jabs at Tommy Fury and him putting up $2.5 million on this fight? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, as always, check back in with HNHH for the latest on this showdown.

La La Anthony On Her Love Life: “I Don’t Feel Like Any Guys Want To Date Me”

by

A new year is a time for new beginnings and optimism. However, not everyone is able to maintain cheer in every aspect of their life. For example, La La Anthony is having a hard time finding her prince charming – or so she told TMZ this week.

The gossip blog caught up with the mother of one at LAX recently. At the time, they asked about comments she made last year on the Call Her Daddy podcast. If you didn’t tune in, the Power starlet dished about the men in her DMs, specifically noting that they’re often much younger than her.

“Literally, guys will DM me, or wanna take me out. I’ll Google them and I’ll be like, ‘You’re 22 years old?!’ Like, HOW?!” she told host Alex Cooper.

Since then, it seems Anthony hasn’t had any luck settling down with a suitor. When TMZ asked about her prior comments on the podcast, she said, “I retract my statement. It’s the top of the year and I don’t feel like any guys wanna date me,” she teased with a smile and laugh.

When the interviewer asked her about her dream man’s age, she playfully said, “Age ain’t nothin’ but a number!” while hopping in the backseat of her waiting vehicle. Pressing for more, the journalist prompted her to pick between a 22-year-old guy and a 40-year-old man.

“I prefer whoever is for me,” she wisely responded. “Whoever God says is for me, I’m good with it.” However, she noted afterward that “22 is a little too young.” When it comes to 34, though, “we can do that,” she says.

Before embarking on her journey back into the world of dating, La La was married to NBA player Carmelo Anthony. They were married for seven years, and share one son, 15-year-old Kiyan, who they continue to co-parent.

Drake & Former Miss Croatia Ivana Knoll Link Up At Leonardo DiCaprio’s Party

by

Drake has been doing this for a long time. Because of this, it never comes as a surprise when he links up with practically every famous face in the industry. Over the years, the rapper has befriended socialites, models, fellow artists, athletes, and various other creatives. Most recently, his ever-expanding social circle grew by one more as he posted up with a world-famous beauty named Ivana Knoll.

She previously held the title of Miss Croatia. Now, the 26-year-old is spending time with Drizzy. Specifically, they were at Leonardo DiCaprio’s Miami party earlier this week. They posed for an Instagram photo together, which she shared on her feed on Thursday (January 5) morning.

In the image, the Canadian has his arm wrapped around Knoll’s waist. They both widely grin for the camera as the model flips her hair. While not exactly matching, their dark fits were coordinated, and they looked undeniably happy to be in each other’s presence.

As Daily Star notes, the social media star made headlines at the end of 2022 after attending the FIFA World Cup in revealing outfits. The host country, Qatar, created a strict dress code for the event, but she chose to follow her own rules. As a result of her bold actions, her online presence has increased significantly. At this time, she has upwards of 3.6 million followers on Instagram.

Champagne Papi isn’t the only celebrity to appear on Knoll’s feed as of late. To kick off 2023, she shared a picture of her and “Gold Digger” hitmaker Jamie Foxx, also smiling for the camera.

“There’s no better way [than to] start [your] new year with good friends,” her caption reads.

According to reports, Foxx was also present at the Miami party where Drizzy and Knoll snapped their photo together.

DaBaby Hangs With Ja Morant’s Dad Courtside

by

It certainly seems like it’s been a while since DaBaby has been in the headlines for good reasons. The rapper has been relatively quiet following his controversial comments at Rolling Loud in 2021.

Regardless, it appears as though the 31-year-old is still enjoying life. On Wednesday night (January 4), he was sitting courtside with Ja Morant’s dad, Tee.

In the entertaining footage, the unexpected duo are soaking in some live basketball action between Morant’s Memphis Grizzlies and the “ROCKSTAR” rapper’s team, the Charlotte Hornets.

“I got OG in here tonight. In cahoots with the refs. This my dawg right here, man. It’s up right here, you see what I’m sayin’? I got him in here tonight, I’m puttin’ pressure on these boys, man. I got Melo for 12,” boasts DaBaby.

“The refs out here acting like we playing in Memphis. Don’t put me out about it, but the refs acting like we playing in motherf*ckin’ Memphis,” he continues afterwards.

Unfortunately for DaBaby, the Grizzlies easily took down the Hornets with a final score of 131-107. Morant led the team to victory through his 23 points and eight assists, further improving their record to 24-13 on the season.

In other news surrounding the rapper, his most recent album, Baby On Baby 2, majorly undersold. According to reports, the project only sold 17,200 units in its first week. Comparatively, Baby On Baby, sold 124,000 units.

He subsequently took to his social media accounts to air out his frustration, claiming he’s being blackballed. Some artists, including Boosie Badazz also had his back. “Ain’t no way my n*gga @DaBabyDaBaby supposed to sell 16k after selling almost 150k his last first week!! he one of the BIGGEST n this sh*t!! I DONT KNOW WHATS GOING ON BUT SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY GOING ON!!” writes the “Wipe Me Down” rapper in a tweet.

Julia Fox Talks Dating Drake & Ye

by

Ever since famously starring in Uncut Gems in 2019, Julia Fox has steadily been in the headlines. Whether for her fashion choices, her meme-worthy statements or her short fling with Ye, the 32-year-old is a hot topic.

During her brief romance with the disgraced rapper, the pair were spotted out together several times.

The Uncut Gems actress recently sat down for an interview with Andy Cohen. During their conversation, the talk show host doesn’t hold back when asking her about her dating history. He reads her a question sent in from a fan, asking the mother of one what’s the best celebrity date she’s been on.

“I flew on a private jet, cuddled on the jet, landed, got some Chanel bags. It was just great,” she exclaims, before saying she can’t disclose who it was with. “I really, really can’t say, but it was obviously an A-lister,” says Fox. After Cohen says everyone wants to know if it’s Drake, she replies, “maybe,” cracking a smile. It certainly seems as though it was with the Certified Lover Boy.

Elsewhere in the interview, the 32-year-old also addresses some aspects of her relationship with the “Gold Digger” rapper. “We were literally together for like a minute. I don’t think he even knows my full name or anything,” she confesses to the Watch What Happens Live! host.

The couple began dating last year, shortly after the 45-year-old’s divorce from Kim Kardashian. However, they only lasted for about a month. The actress says she dumped the father of four due to his “unresolved issues.”

Of course, Drizzy and Ye have a rather complicated past with each other. After beefing for years, they put their differences aside to unite on stage in late 2021. Both artists performed at the concert, which was put on in order to bring attention to the “Free Larry Hoover” movement.

Fox’s alleged date with the Toronto superstar allegedly happened before her fling with Ye. Regardless, the exact timeline is unknown and the seemingly new update is certainly interesting.

Twitter Is Being Sued For Not Paying Rent

by

Although his Twitter purchase officially went down in October, Elon Musk is continuing to be all over the headlines.

However, the Tesla CEO is certainly no stranger to being in the middle of controversy.

According to The Guardian, the social media platform is now being sued over missed rent payments. The landlord, Columbia REIT 650 California LLC, alleges that there’s a balance of $136, 260 in unpaid rent at one of Twitter’s San Fransisco offices. The landlord also wants Musk to pay damages for attorney’s fees and other expenses.

Evidently, the 51-year-old is trying to cut the company’s costs by any means necessary. Just last week, reports from The New York Times alleged that the SpaceX CEO is responsible for firing the company’s entire janitorial staff.

Furthermore, Musk officially became the first person ever to lose $200 billion earlier this week. This comes as a result of the drastic decline in Tesla’s stocks. According to Bloomberg‘s Billionaires Index, the share’s value sunk by 11% on December 27.

It certainly seems as though being the CEO of Twitter is causing the billionaire plenty of stress. He even ran a poll asking the platform’s users to vote on whether or not they think he should step down from the position.

After receiving more than 17 million votes, 55.7% of them answer yes to the question. “I will resign as CEO as soon as I find someone foolish enough to take the job! After that, I will just run the software & servers teams,” the 51-year-old says in response to the results.

What are your thoughts on Elon Musk’s handling of his Twitter acquisition thus far? Comment down below. Finally, be sure to stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest pop culture updates.
