India Royale Puts NBA Youngboy On Blast In Defense Of Lil Durk

by

It really takes one common enemy to bring two people together, and that person is NBA Youngboy. In the midst of Lil Durk’s attempt to win India Royale back, NBA Youngboy couldn’t help but allegedly comment on their relationship woes. From a non-verified account Akademiks said belonged to YB, the “Right Foot Creep” rapper sympathized with Durk’s position, albeit snarkily. “Lol damn I know how it be when that h*e turn to a demon,” the tweet reads, along with a laughing emoji. 

Afterward, Youngboy reiterated the campaign slogan for his upcoming album, Don’t Try This At Home, writing, “It’s all entertainment. Given Youngboy’s long-standing feud with Lil Durk, India Royale wasn’t about to allow the rapper to disrespect the father of her child, regardless of their current standings. India unleashed a pair of tweets aimed at a subliminal target. “Don’t speak on me bitch. I let you slide the first time,” she wrote. “That’s still my BD. Ion play about him. Y’all can chill. Fr,” she added. At this point, fans largely speculated that she took issue with NBA Youngboy’s comments but she later made it abundantly clear in her subsequent tweets.

India Royale Clashes With NBA Youngboy

“That lil boy need to find somebody to play with. You was just a dirty lil bad kid. You ain’t like that Fr,” India wrote afterward before confirming that she’s “talking about dent head.” India then questioned Youngboy’s street credentials. “Ppl think because they was dirty and in the hood they automatically gang,” she wrote. “You wasn’t toting no guns, you was food deprived.” Evidently, Royale wasn’t necessarily interested in allowing NBA Youngboy to continue taking shots at her.

“Don’t be dense. If he wasn’t talking about me this time he was the last time,” India commented on Instagram. “TF Ima real Chicago b*tch. Y’all don’t lost it.” It seems as though YB found the interaction rather amusing as he shared a screenshot of “DentHead” on Apple Music. “[crying laughing emoji] b*tch I know 1 thing you ain’t gone muthaf*cking play with me,” he tweeted with the picture. Check out India Royale’s comments above.

Erica Banks & Finesse2tymes Feud Continues, She Claims His “Thang Wasn’t Thangin’”

by

Last September, 24-year-old Erica Banks proudly showed off a new man on her Instagram page – Memphis rapper Finesse2tymes. At the time, many labelled the two rising stars a very complimentary duo, though their short-lived romance proved that to be untrue. This past weekend, things once again heated up between the exes as the 90 Days artist dished about their breakup on The Breakfast Club.

“You know, I’m a man! When I wake up in the morning, my woman get up, ‘cuz it’s time to cook, it’s time to have some sex, it’s time to clean up,” Finesse told Charlamagne and DJ Envy. “When you get up and get on your phone, I don’t like that. Don’t get straight on your phone when you around a man.” Seeing as she’s allegedly chronically online, it wasn’t long before Banks clapped back at her former lover’s comments.

Erica Banks Taunts Her Ex with a Bootylicious Video

Not only did she repost a video clip of the Memphis native’s comments on her Story, but the “Buss It” hitmaker also hopped on Instagram Live to tell her side of the story. “With Finesse, he wants a servant,” Banks explained. “This n*gga want a servant who can get on they knees and kiss his toes. I’m just not that girl! It’s somebody out there for him to do that, it just ain’t me.”

Shortly after that, a diss post aimed at Finesse appeared on the Houston-born rap diva’s feed. In the clip, she puts her BBL on full display in a black leather two-piece set while strutting along to “How to Act” from her former man’s discography. While some accused Banks of doing too much, others praised her, seemingly leading to her latest comments about the 30-year-old.

The Shady Comments Continue

In yet another video uploaded, the 1501 artist and her friend are filmed while cooking in the kitchen, seemingly discussing Finesse’s manhood. “It sounds like the man’s thing was small,” Banks’ friend speculates while prepping food. “Well… It wasn’t what I was used to, let me just say that,” she answered. “I’m just a certain type of woman… I like that thang thangin’!” the entertainer added with a laugh.

Joe Budden Seemingly Responds To Kxng Crooked Over Logic Criticism

by

On March 8, Joe Budden revealed on his podcast that he hates Logic’s music. On March 10, Kxng Crooked asked why. Budden has finally answered the question. He revealed why he does not like the man behind the music. During the Joe Budden podcast on March 8, they talked about Logic’s cover of Ice Cube’s ” It Was a Good Day”. Budden had some choice words to say about Logic, saying that he should just retire and stop making songs. “Logic, I beg of you, I’m pleading with you: please join me in retirement. Never step near a recording device again… You are the worst, yo! You are really, really bad!”

Two days later, Budden’s former groupmate, Kxng Crooked, responded to the episode on social media, asking Budden why he hates Logic’s music so much. He thinks that there are plenty of people that are in bigger need of being bullied into retirement. “Why does dude hate Logic’s music so much? Serious question. It’s some rappers I wish would retire waaaaaayyy before Logic.”

Joe Budden Responds

Budden’s response to Kxng Crooked reveals that he hates Logic not because of his music, but rather because he is a kiss-ass. He also implies that Kxng Crooked is just as much of a kiss-ass as Logic for trying to fight Logic’s battle for him, instead of letting the man fight them himself. He implies this by refusing to give names and saying that people should fight their own fights. Something that Kxng Crooked is not letting Logic do. When asked to list names instead of being vague on who is on he is talking about, Budden claims that it is not worth the hassle, implying that there are many people he is talking about simultaneously and not just Logic.

Kxng Crooked had walked into a longer beef than he probably realized. The two had been going at it for literally years. It is so bad that Budden was part of the reason why Logic retired in 2020. In 2022, he was on a podcast and responded to Budden’s hatred of him. He thinks that he is a hurt person who likes to make other people feel as bad as he does.

BIA Denies Switching Up On Cardi B

by

BIA just took to TikTok and denied that she switched up on Cardi B, despite what many fans online believe. Apparently, discussion online fostered after BIA deleted all her tweets relating to Cardi before she went live with Nicki Minaj. For those of you unaware, the two female MCs have a long and storied beef going on. Moreover, the Massachusetts rapper gave her side of the story online and said that she hasn’t even met Cardi B in person. As such, she said it’s all love and that people took those signs too seriously.

“Keep it 100,” the “London” MC began. “Sweetie, I didn’t switch up on anybody because I don’t know Cardi in real life. I’ve never met Cardi, we’ve never had a conversation. Like, I don’t have no issues with her, it’s all love, but I don’t know her. Y’all do too much on this app, I don’t know her in real life. We don’t know each other [a friend added, “Shout out to her”]. We don’t know them. Ask me about somebody I know. Ask me about somebody I’ve met in real life, not online.”

BIA Denies Beef With Cardi B

Despite BIA’s words, many social media users still aren’t buying that tale, and kept bringing up the deleted tweets. Also, this becomes even murkier when you consider the other rap beefs that Nicki is involved in, and some threw out conspiracies that she’s turning rappers against each other. While she recently threw apparent subliminals at Megan Thee Stallion and Latto, a lot of the Internet conversation might just be trying to pit these artists against each other.

Meanwhile, BIA recently put out a single “SIXTEEN” ahead of her Rolling Loud L.A. performance. Of course, it’s still quite a banger, but it also contained some of her most emotionally vulnerable material yet. “Take me back to when I lost my job, I told ’em, ‘F**k you,’” she rapped. “I came from a place where there’s nobody to look up to / We weren’t broke together, tell me how the f**k I trust you? / I left mama house, bitch, I ain’t have nowhere to run to.” Time will tell whether these alleged beefs and conflicts will work her way into her material as well. Regardless, come back to HNHH for the latest news and updates on BIA and Cardi B.

DJ Quik Recounts Almost Fighting Tupac

by

DJ Quik recently revealed that he almost fought with hip-hop legend Tupac over a misunderstanding. “Outside the studio, he was a jokester – bagging on n****s — joking, fun — we toured a little bit. He got in my ass one time too — we were about to get into a fight because he thought I was stealing his stage show — like when he would rap and jump up on the speakers. I had to tell him ‘bro I got that off of Bobby Brown my n**** — off of the ‘My Prerogative’ shit.”

The DJ then shared the way they resolved the conflict. “Come here, Quik. Let me holler at you — How am I stealing the show — this n**** hot; he ready to fight. So, instead of us fighting, we went into the weight room and just started lifting weights and shit. You know what I’m saying? Just go in there like ‘knock it out, dog.’” 

The Time DJ Quik Almost Died

This isn’t the first time DJ Quik has gotten into trouble thanks to the “All Eyez On Me” artist. The star recently recounted how he could have lost his life in an altercation over Tupac’s bootleg music in a Uproxx Video interview. He states that he gave a security guard a copy of a copy of a CD that the late rhymer was working on.

Quick said “‘Ay, you know ni**as up here playin’ that new Tupac sh*t y’all in there workin’ on?’ He’s like, ‘What!?’ What!?. So I get a call, ‘Hey man, come up to the office.’ I already know with them Death Row meetings, when they call you randomly at 4:20 to fight traffic and get up here, ‘Aw, this finna’ be some bullsh*t.’” 

The 53-year-old then speaks about getting into a life-threatening altercation after he asked the security guard who received the aforementioned CD from him. “So I fight the dude, and he dropped his Hennessy, and I think he was more mad that he dropped his Hennessy than me actually swinging on him or whatever. So he told his homeboy, ‘Man, blast this mothaf*cka!’ My man just pulled out a Tec and cocked it. I just [stopped and became] cold over this dumb-ass Tupac tape. So my man didn’t shoot me. My security got the gun from him and was like, ‘Y’all just go ahead up.” What’s your favorite DJ Quik song? Let us know in the comments.

Erica Banks Flaunts Her BBL To Finesse2tymes’ “How To Act” After Beefing With Rapper

by

Not all couples can last forever, and sometimes, that’s a good thing. In the case of Finesse2tymes and Erica Banks, it may even be great, considering the tea both rappers spilt about their short-lived relationship recently. It began with the 90 Days hitmaker’s appearance on The Breakfast Club, at which time he gave some insight into his split from the Texas-born artist.

From the sounds of things, Finesse didn’t see a future with the 24-year-old because of her tendency to check her phone first thing in the morning. While he expects a woman to wake up, cook, have sex, and tidy up before scrolling through social media, Banks’ number one priority is getting online and checking out her bank account. “Don’t get straight on your phone when you around a man,” the Memphis native told listeners during his chat with DJ Envy and Charlamagne.

Upon hearing her ex’s comments, the “Buss It” hitmaker was quick to clear the air on Instagram Live. “There’s a difference between a good woman and a maid,” she said earlier this weekend. “With Finesse, he wants a servant.” As for Banks, she wants to spend her mornings “making sure everything’s straight, checking on [her] people, and checking on [her] account.”

The rap diva laughed, “Then we can get up and talk about what you wanna eat for breakfast.” Though there’s clearly some tension between them, Banks made it known that she still thinks the “Summo” artist is a “funny” and “good” person – she’s just not the one who can give him what he wants. In the time since, however, she’s only continued to bring up Finesse’s name on her IG.

BBL is BBLing

On Saturday (March 11) evening, the 1501 artist posted a video of her strutting in a tiny black leather two-piece set to the 30-year-old’s “How to Act” song. As she adjusts her long, sleek ponytail, Banks and her cameraman ensure that all eyes are on her bodacious BBL, which she’s bragged about in the past. “Ion know how to act,” she wrote in the caption, seemingly teasing Finesse about his TBC comments.

In the replies, followers have been leaving plenty of hilarious comments. “If [you] only walked like that to get that man breakfast,” one person wrote. Others added, “Don’t get a Libra started ’cause we don’t stop,” and “If I was [Finesse]… You just gotta crack a smile at this one.” What are your thoughts on Erica Banks’ latest clap back? Let us know below, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Troy Ave & Taxstone Beef Over Testifying In Trial

by

Rapper Troy Ave and former podcaster Taxstone just stared a Twitter beef over the latter’s criminal trial. For those of you who don’t remember, Taxstone stands accused of involvement in a 2016 Irving Plaza shooting in New York City that took the life of Ave’s bodyguard, Ronald “Banga” McPhatter. On Thursday (March 9), Taxstone wrote a tweet that many believed took aim at Troy Ave testifying in his case. Afterwards, the New York rapper responded in kind and let off some Twitter subliminals of his own to fuel the fire.

“Can’t wait for this delusional lying ass bozo to testify on Monday !!!” Taxstone fired off on Thursday. Then, Ave took the jab as a shot and replied. “A call to action is crazy. ‘I can’t wait’ Said the person with nothing but time… his friends cooked him VERY WELL DONE! I might jus bring the dessert , wat kind y’all want #UnSafeTho#BeSmartTho.” In another tweet, he inexplicably asked former President Barack Obama for help. “Dear @POTUS44 this Hater tryna frame the murder of MY FRIEND on Me. I’m innocent I boomed @ the hater off self defense! His Mans Caswell & Malcolm ate the [cheese] on him already! My new album gon be called ‘DEAR HATER I WON’ pre order uP MONDAY!”

Twitter Beef Over Testifying Ensues

Later, Taxstone seemed to retort against the 37-year-old in some more subliminal messages via Twitter. “Rejecting self reflection at any cost,” he began his series of reflections. “Lowlifes think the most highly of themselves. Keeping their face far from mirrors but placing them in front of everyone else’s face. Sometimes we get lost and have to find ourselves but never forget to self reflect.” What’s more is that even Taxstone’s attorney confirmed that Troy Ave is expected to testify in his trial.

With all this in mind, it will be interesting to see how Taxstone’s trial progresses on Monday. Twitter beef is one thing, but if such antagonism comes into the courtroom, it could spell trouble for either party. Hopefully the trial’s outcome doesn’t become part of more social media antics. Regardless, check out the tweets below and stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Taxstone and Troy Ave.

Tiger Woods’ Lawyers Speak Out Amid Legal Battle With Ex Erica Herman

by

PGA Tour star Tiger Woods is making headlines after allegedly tricking his ex-girlfriend, Erica Herman, into leaving his Jupiter, Florida mansion where they lived together for six years. According to reports, Herman, 38, is suing the 47-year-old professional golfer following their breakup in October for $30 million amid claims she had an oral agreement with Woods’ “Jupiter Island Irrevocable Homestead Trust,” which is the legal owner of his mansion. The alleged agreement Herman stated allowed her to live at the property for 11 years and claims there is a “breach of duty” that has left her suffering “severe” emotional damages.

Herman’s lawsuit, handled by the 19th Judicial Circuit Court in Martin County, Florida, claims she should have been allowed to live in the property for five more years and that Woods is “terrified” over claims of “another scandal.” In the alleged oral agreement, Herman claims she provided “valuable services” at Woods’ request as part of the “oral tenancy agreement” to reside at the Florida mansion for the specified duration. However, the athlete’s lawyers told officials that the two never had a written or oral tenancy agreement and that his ex lived at the Florida residence as a “guest.”

In addition, they claim the trust owns “only a limited remainder interest” in his Florida mansion. The report adds that Herman’s specified grievances are against Woods and not the Jupiter Island Irrevocable Homestead Trust that owns the home. Attorneys for the 15-time major golf champion reportedly filed a motion to intervene amid claims that Herman sued the trust to avoid an agreement she had made with Woods to arbitrate all disputes.

According to ESPN, Herman, who worked as a general manager of Woods’ restaurant before entering into a personal relationship with him, is requesting a judge to remove her from an NDA she signed back in August 2017. Herman states the nondisclosure agreement, reportedly signed by both Woods and the plaintiff, was wrongfully forced upon her and cited the “Speak Out Act.” In her court filings, she alleged that the 82-time PGA Tour winner sexually abused her. Reports say that there were no provided details as to what the alleged abuse entailed.

According to the latest court filing notes, Woods started arbitration proceedings on Dec. 22 to establish that Herman has no right to live in his residence and is not entitled to monetary damages from him. However, ESPN reports those proceedings stopped on Jan. 26 after Herman stated her claims alleging breach of an oral tenancy agreement involve a “sexual harassment dispute” and cannot be compelled to arbitrate. Check back in with HNHH later for any updates on the tense situation.

Finesse2tymes & Erica Banks Trade Shots Over Their Short-Lived Relationship

by

Dating is hard enough for the average person, but the love lives of celebrities are particularly volatile due to the nature of their work. Constantly being in the public eye would take a toll on anyone, but having your looks, career moves, and relationships constantly scrutinized by both the press and social media causes many stars to keep their personal life private. While some famous couples do manage to make it to the endgame together, others – such as Finesse2tymes and Erica Banks – cut ties after just a few weeks.

The pair spent a few weeks together last September, though it wasn’t long before the 90 Days hitmaker posted up with another woman online. Since then, he and Banks have been known to trade shots back and forth online, though their beef reached new heights on Friday (March 10). At the time, Finesse sat down on The Breakfast Club to explain why he and the “Buss It” artist ultimately went their separate ways after such a short time.

Finesse2tymes Tells His Side of the Story

“The age thing, that’s what I didn’t understand,” he began, referencing the six-year age gap between them. “You know, I’m a man! When I wake up in the morning, my woman get up, ‘cuz it’s time to cook, it’s time to have some sex, it’s time to clean up,” Finesse further explained. “When you get up and get on your phone, I don’t like that. Don’t get straight on your phone when you around a man.” According to the southern rapper, a woman’s job is to take care of her partner first, then she can scroll through social media.

Seeing as she’s allegedly chronically online, it wasn’t long before Banks clapped back at her former lover. “This man crazy,” she wrote on her Story while reposting Finesse’s interview with TBC. Shortly after she went Live on IG, breaking down what happened from her point of view for curious followers.

Erica Banks Claps Back

“There’s a difference between a good woman and a maid,” the 24-year-old’s rant began. “There’s a difference between a good woman, and a ‘do girl.’ You get where I’m going? With Finesse, he wants a servant.” Banks then addressed Finesse’s comments about her using her phone immediately after opening her eyes, pointing out that she conducts most of her business through her cell. “I’m about to get up, make sure everything’s straight, check on my people, check on my account, and then we can get up and talk about what you wanna eat for breakfast.”

The rap diva told listeners, “This n*gga want a servant who can get on they knees and kiss his toes. I’m just not that girl! It’s somebody out there for him to do that, it just ain’t me.” Banks also made it known that she still thinks the Memphis native is a “good person” and “funny,” but knows that they’re not meant to be together. Hear everything the 1501 artist revealed about Finesse2tymes in the videos below, and check back later for more pop culture news.

Hit-Boy & Hitmaka Continue Their Beef On IG

by

This week brought the hip-hop world a surprising but fascinating beef between two all-star producers. Hit-Boy and Hitmaka continued their beef, which all started when the latter said that the former can’t compete with him in a radio market. Then, Hit-Boy teased some lyrics from a song with The Alchemist where he disses Hitmaka and his merits. After that, Hitmaka responded by saying that Hit-Boy is a terrible solo artist and should focus on his production. In subsequent attacks online, both producers clarified and doubled down on their stances.

First, Hitmaka published an edited video of ILOVEMAKONNEN’s clowned Tim Westwood freestyle with Hit-Boy’s face on it. Also, he included an alleged DM screenshot where the King’s Disease producer complimented his production success. “CHAUNCEYYYYYYYYYYYY CHAUNCEYYYYYYYYYY,” he captioned the post, calling Hit-Boy by his government name. “Quit f***ing playing kid YOU know I got the hit factory Now Swipe Right 2 SEE YA IDOLS EVERY TIME U RAP SALUTE TO THE WORST PRODUCER RAPPER OF ALL-TIME.” For what it’s worth, Hit-Boy responded simply with three laughing emojis in his comments.

Hitmaka Continues Beef On Instagram

On his end, Hit-Boy posted an edited picture of Muhammad Ali (with Hit-Boy’s face) knocking out Sonny Liston (with the Chicago producer’s face). “I only meant to Diss 1 person on slipping into darkness,” he captioned the post with a laughing emoji. In the comments, he continued his clarification. “I got respect for mustard metro and southside,” he wrote. Regardless, Metro Boomin allegedly responded to the shots, so maybe that wasn’t clear to everyone or he intended his jabs to be friendlier competitiveness. Also in the comments, Hitmaka clapped back.

“Pls send beats so I can help u,” he clapped back. “N***A U DID 3 ALBUMS WIT @nas & he ain’t give u one verse. Everyone knows u terrible at rapping don’t make me go rap I actually have plaques from being a rapper.” In addition, this beef couldn’t have come at a more perfect time. As Hitmaka dropped his Jim Jones collab album on Friday (March 10), Hit-Boy dropped an album of his own with Musiq Soulchild. However you feel about that debate, let us know in the comments down below and check out Hit-Boy’s post as well. Also, as always, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Hitmaka and Hit-Boy.
