Megan Thee Stallion Announces Her Own Tequila Brand

by

It goes without saying that Megan Thee Stallion has a lot on her plate these days. The Houston MC is currently gearing up for her upcoming Hot Girl Summer tour with GloRilla for one, which kicks off next month. On top of the 32-date run, Meg also has a new album in the works, which she shared some exciting details about during a panel at AdWeek for Social Media Week 2024.

New music isn’t the only thing Meg and the Hotties have to look forward to these days, however. Elsewhere during her appearance, the hitmaker announced that she plans to broaden her horizons by launching her own tequila brand. “I create the things that I want to see, I don’t create things for other people to like them,” she explained. “I create the music I want to hear, I go and do my own thing and stay true to me.”

Meg didn’t share many additional details of the tequila brand, but it’s safe to say that fans can’t wait. Various commenters are praising the rapper for the “power move,” and using hate to her advantage. “That’s smart af,” one Instagram user writes in The Neighborhood Talk‘s comments section. “Idc what anyone says if being a drunk is attached to her name why not make money off it.” Another says, “I love tequila so I’m here for it.”

Ebro Believes Sexyy Red’s Sex Tape Leak Is “On Brand,” Sparks Fan Backlash

by

Ebro’s never been one to shy away from hot takes and controversial conversations, but his most recent example of that is harder to stomach than most for some fans online. Moreover, he recently reacted to the news that Sexyy Red’s sex tape leaked on her Instagram Story with a pretty heated take. “Sad Sexyy Red is hurt by the [sex] tape leak, but it is actually on brand based on the music. Still terrible tho,” the radio host wrote on Twitter. “This is like saying ‘she got r*ped because she wore a mini skirt’ you’re a weirdo Ebro!” a user replied to him on the social media platform.

“Huh?” Ebro clapped back. “Revenge p*rn is terrible. Her raps are p*rn rap. Both can be true.” While the promiscuity of the St. Louis native’s music and public persona is certainly an important aspect of her image, it also holds weight because of her agency in these matters. As such, Sexyy Red’s antics or open-book nature when it comes to sexual matters shouldn’t justify something like this happening. Of course, that’s not what the media personality meant to suggest, but it’s still a link that displeased many fans.

Meanwhile, Sexyy Red herself issued a response to this scandal shortly after it started to make rounds on the Internet. “I’m so heartbroken anybody that kno me knows I wouldn’t do no goofy s**t like that,” the 25-year-old expressed on Twitter. Many fans expressed their condolences in the apparent revenge p*rn case, but that didn’t stop others from weighing in unprompted. The most recent example of that is DJ Akademiks, who tried to give her some advice in terms of how she could overcome this.

“Sexyy red gotta stop f***ing broke bums wit nothing to lose,” he tweeted. “How every n***a she wit desperately tryna let the world know they smashin her. I love how down to earth she is but it’s bout time she leave these n***as wit ankle monitors on .. in they momma houses where they belong. I don’t think Sexyy red uploaded that herself… Clearly it’s a n***a holding her phone and recording…that n***a probably just uploaded that s**t to her story n called it a day.” For more news and updates on Ebro and Sexyy Red, keep checking in with HNHH.

Future Reportedly Starting Medical Marijuana Brand

by

While it’s by no means uncommon at this point, it’s always exciting to see the hip-hop world cross over into other industries. Future is reportedly starting a brand in the lucrative marijuana business. Moreover, these reports come from trademark attorney Clarissa Harvey, who shared some details on these potential big plans. Furthermore she said Hendrix’s legal team filed six trademark applications for a line named “EVOL BY FUTURE” in various classes on February 17. In addition, she said the description of the brand involves “providing a website featuring health information in the field of medical marijuana and cannabis.”

Also, these reports indicate that the line may include vape pens, medicated oils, smoking lounge services, and more. Of course, longtime Future fans likely recognize the alleged brand name from the MC’s 2016 album. However, even an extracurricular business venture probably won’t stray the trap legend from album mode. He tweeted as such earlier this year, along with the announcement of a collab album with Metro Boomin later in 2023. Not only that, but he boasted that they already have the album of the year.

Future Has Big Plans Beyond Medical Marijuana

In addition to those big plans, Future also extended his One Big Party tour with additional dates later this year. His new run will last from March 9 in New Orleans to April 8 in Minneapolis, although his announcement teased that there are “always more cities to be added.” Moreover, his January run brought along Polo G, Trippie Redd, Kodak Black, EST Gee, Ocean x KungFu, Rob49, and Babyface Ray. While new dates would’ve been enough to satisfy fans, Pluto is bringing new guest to these shows as well. They include G Herbo, Mariah the Scientist, Don Toliver, and his ex-girlfriend Dess Dior. Although that would be awkward for many, she told Angela Yee that they’re on great terms.

“We’re very, very, very good friends,” she expressed. “He always support me and I’ll always support him. It’s no bad blood. And that’s what people just – you know, they get the wrong idea. It don’t always don’t have to end in a s**t-show. You know what I’m saying? Gracefully move on.” Regardless, come back to HNHH for the latest on Future’s next big move.
