Family ties can lead to incredible artistic chemistry, and there are fewer better examples of that than cousins Young Nudy and 21 Savage. Moreover, Nudy just invited 21 to join him during his Atlanta concert, his final homecoming tour stop for his 2023 dates. Unsurprisingly, the crowd went absolutely ballistic when 21 Savage graced the stage, and they performed the track “Peaches & Eggplants” to a wild group of fans. If you’re looking for more from the East Atlanta trap star, he recently released his latest food-themed album Gumbo, where he delivers high-quality cuts while tapping into his inner MF DOOM.
When it comes to the Her Loss‘s guest appearances as of late, they’ve been nothing short of energizing and impactful. The weekend before linking up with Young Nudy, 21 Savage appeared during Metro Boomin’s fantastic set at Coachella. Sure, they played some of 21’s contributions to his latest album HEROES & VILLAINS, but also went through their extensive and iconic collaborative history. Whether it was “X,” “Runnin’,” or “Bank Account,” the MC-producer duo ripped through the festival grounds like a hulking beast- or like The Hulk, considering Metro’s comic book-inspired presentation.
Young Nudy & 21 Savage Serve Atlanta Crowd “Peaches & Eggplants”
What’s more is that other artists recently took note of Young Nudy and 21 Savage’s chemistry, with one artist in particular remixing one of their team-ups’ instrumentals. None other than Lil Yachtytook a shot at the duo’s “EA” in a snippet he shared while on Kai Cenat’s stream. Over the menacing instrumental, Yachty floats with off-kilter flows and consistent switch-ups that make his relaxed delivery feel more potent. Hopefully the remix lands sooner rather than later, as it would mark one of the only times that the 2016 XXL Freshmen officially collaborate on a song.
Regardless of that, Young Nudy will likely continue to deliver on the colorful yet still grimy aesthetics that he’s graced fans with so far. Another standout project from him is EA Monster, which he dropped last August to a lot of fan acclaim. It seems like no matter the occasion or the context, a Nudy and 21 joint never misses.

Some drama between two “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” stars just took an even sharper turn with one of their daughters jumping into the ring. Moreover, Emani Richardson just hopped on Instagram Live to bash Bambi for posting alleged receipts that Emani’s mother, Erica Dixon, abused her. Furthermore, Emani said that Bambi can’t even take care of her other kids and criticized her for talking on behalf of her and thrashing her mother through the mud. Overall, it was quite the heated message, as she also dismissed those claims that Erica abused her in the past. Not only that, but this follows a scathing message that Bambi had for Erica Dixon.
“Y’all so mad cuz I’m really ‘that lady,’” Bambi wrote on her Instagram Story. “But you’ll never be anything other than ‘that n***a baby moma’ @msericadixon. Since you wanna play with me… the reason why I never liked your a** is because since your child was 8 years old she confided in me about you bullying her and two piecing her a**! I let people think otherwise and never spoke up because Scrapp was handling it with the court and she was underage.
“But b***h f**k you!” Bambi continued against Erica Dixon, speaking on her relationship with daughter Emani. “It’s up. And here is one incident report of many. Now pipe tf down & show some respect to that lady that consoled your baby after you busted her s**t all those times.” What’s more is that Bambi actually posted a full legal document alleging abuse on her Instagram Story as well, adding fuel to the fire. Moreover, that seems to have angered Emani the most.
“Public record,” Bambi captioned the picture of the legal document in question. “Please stop playing. I love this child and kept my mouth closed but y’all doing the most! You sent the cops to my house being petty as usual. And then your child wanted to talk to them and tell them this s**t on her own.” Given this is a nasty and complicated web of beef, a lot of people are advising young Emani to stay out of it. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Emani, Erica Dixon, and Bambi.

According to a source who spoke to PEOPLE, Jamie Foxx is “steadily improving” following his medical emergency and hospitalization. For those unaware, his daughter Corinne Foxx broke the news in an Instagram post. “We wanted to share that, my father, Jamie Foxx, experienced a medical complication yesterday,” she wrote. “Luckily, due to quick action and great case, he is already on his way to recovery. We know how beloved he is and appreciate your prayers. The family asks for privacy during this time. Much love, The Foxx Family.”
Not only that, but apparently the situation could’ve been tragic according to other reports from TMZ. “We’re told his condition was serious enough that Jamie’s family, some of whom were not in town, came to the hospital,” they claimed. “He’s communicating now, and that’s good news.” To elaborate, Foxx was in Georgia filing the Netflix comedy Back In Action, which now faces a slew of production issues given Foxx’s hospitalization. Interestingly enough, the film was already facing a lot of issues, such as the 55-year-old being subject to a $40,000 scam while on set.
Jamie Foxx Is Slowly Recovering After Hospitalization

Furthermore, LeBron James was one of many celebrities and fans who wished the Django Unchained star well. “Sending my thoughts and prayers to the heavens above to my brother @iamjamiefoxx!!!!” LeBron wrote on Twitter. “Get well and back to yourself SOONER THAN LATER! God willing.” Even though people expressed their support on social media, they did so without knowing any symptoms or barely any details as to the incident. In addition, his state of recovery has not yet resulted in a release date from the hospital or a date to continue filming.
Even though the set of Back In Action is quite hectic and disorganized at the moment, there’s hope that Foxx will feel better very soon. As quite the beloved actor with a lot of range and chemistry, this certainly raised the upcoming film’s profile in an unfortunate way. Hopefully Foxx’s scary situation and prompt recovery will get some of those bad vibes out of the studio. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Jamie Foxx.

Nostalgia for the 90s is all the rage right now. From music to fashion, the decade has experienced a renaissance in recent years. Thus, it only makes sense to do a documentary on one of the most iconic names of the decade. Freaknik was a street concert that took place in Atlanta during the 80s and 90s. Subsequently, the event has become one of the most discussed topics of the decade. Now, a new project seeks to tell the untold story of the event.
“Freaknik: The Wildest Party Never Told” will air on Hulu. According to Variety, the project “Recounts the rise and fall of a small Atlanta HBCU picnic that exploded into an influential street party and spotlighted ATL as a major cultural stage.” The company did not announce when the documentary would be released. However, some Twitter users seem to be nervous about the contents of the new documentary. Comedian David Alan Grier tweeted his humorous reaction to the project, “On my way to court to get a cease and desist for this new Freaknik documentary,” he said.
Freaknik Goes From Small Concert To Massive Event

Freaknik has its roots in historically black universities. The event was created in 1983 by students at Spelman College. Initially, it was conceived as a small picnic for students at Spellman and fellow Atlanta HBCUs, Morehouse, and Clark Atlanta. However, the event would explode in popularity during the 90s. During this time, the event evolved from a small picnic to a massive multi-day event. Subsequently, students from HBCUs across the country began to make the annual pilgrimage to Atlanta.
Freaknik undoubtedly made an indelible impact on black culture during the 90s. Many lifelong friendships were made at the event. Moreover, many festival-goers will tell you attending the event was among the happiest times of their lives. However, there was also an ugly side to the event. Women in particular reported sexual harassment from male festival-goers. Moreover, reported rapes and sexual assaults became commonplace. Subsequently, authorities in Atlanta intervened, and the festival was shut down in 1999. However, the event did make its triumphant return in 2021. That iteration of the festival was headlined by Atlanta native 21 Savage. It will be interesting to see how this new documentary balances the good and bad from the festival’s 40-year history.
