Ari Lennox Reveals Why She’s Afraid To Expose The “Weird” Burglars Who Broke Into Her House

September 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Ari Lennox says she’s worried about exposing the people who broke into her home in Los Angeles because she doesn’t want them to come back for her again. She explained her reasoning to her followers on Instagram Live on Monday, as caught by The Jasmine Brand.

“The only reason I don’t post the f****** video and expose those weird people that did that to me is because I genuinely still be around LA and I don’t wanna be f****** looking over my shoulder. I genuinely don’t. I’ve never had beef that serious before. If people could come into my house and do that to me, I don’t know what else they would do.”

In response to the explanation, fans on Instagram shared plenty of supportive messages. “The fact that folks are blaming the victim for choosing to live in a place that she chooses is assinine! Why not blame the coconut heads who violated her????” one user commented. Another wrote: “This Black Queen should be Protected and Respected. Love her.”

Ari Lennox Speaks Out

Lennox previously spoke out about the burglary on social media, earlier this summer. “I was renting a home in LA, n****s burglarized my home. Pepper sprayed my dogs and I wrote a song about it,” she said at the time. “It happened at a time where it’s like, ‘How the f**k did they know I had dogs? How the f**k did they know I wouldn’t be home? It was weird as f**k.’” Be on the lookout for further updates on Ari Lennox on HotNewHipHop.

😱 Boosie Badazz Sprinter Van Break-In Costs Him Insulin & Ankle Monitor Charger

June 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s no secret that Boosie Badazz has a lot of cash, and evidently, that makes him a thief’s ideal victim. Recently, the rapper took to social media to reveal that his Sprinter van was broken into by individuals looking to steal some of his riches. He shared a clip of the aftermath, which included a scattering of broken glass all over the street from the seemingly smashed van windows. Luckily, Boosie had kept his cash on him, meaning that they didn’t get away with too much.

While the thieves may not have gotten access to Boosie’s stacks, they certainly weren’t willing to leave empty-handed. During their visit, they stole his insulin, some fake jewelry, a few clothing items, and the charger for his ankle monitor. It’s unclear exactly what they plan to do with these items, but Boosie needs insulin for his diabetes and could get in serious trouble with authorities if his ankle monitor dies. Either way, he appears grateful that they weren’t able to steal anything else.

“Old bum a** motherf*cker broke into my sprinter,” Boosie announced in a clip. “He ain’t got sh*t.” Hopefully, Boosie will be able to get replacements for everything that was stolen or track it down in some way. After all, it wasn’t too long ago that he left his ankle monitor charger at an airport by accident, and had to enlist his fanbase for help getting it back.

They must not be easy to come by, as he offered up a $5K cash reward to whoever found it. What do you think of thieves breaking into Boosie Badazz’s sprinter van? What about them stealing his ankle monitor charger and insulin? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Clippers New Arena Vandalized By Teenagers

March 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Police are searching for suspects after videos of teenagers vandalizing the unfinished Intuit Dome in LA were posted to TikTok. The perpetrators climbed on scaffolding and discharged fire extinguishers in the collection of clips posted online. After gaining entry via a construction ladder, the teens took a few shots on the unfinished court. The Intuit Dome is due to open in time for the next NBA season and will give the Clippers a new permanent home to go along with their recent branding redesign.

Per Inglewood Mayor James Butts Jr, the perpetrators have already been identified. “It will be very clear to these young men — and to people who are TikTok followers — that you have a moment of TikTok greatness followed by a little bit of misery. And so we don’t play around with these things,” Butts warned.

Kawhi Leonard Signs Huge Extension With LA Clippers

Meanwhile, Kawhi Leonard recently signed a three-year contract extension with the Los Angeles Clippers reportedly worth $157M. The terms were not disclosed by the Clippers but later reported by Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. The deal does not contain a player option. Furthermore, the team is reportedly working on an extension for Paul George, Leonard’s All-Star tandem partner. Both players were eligible for a maximum extension of four years and $223M. The Clippers move into the Intuit Dome, next season. It’s clear they want their cornerstones with them to begin that new era.

The Clippers are 38-20 on the season. However, they have hit a rough patch and have lost three of their last five. With Leonard and George both healthy and productive, the team has blossomed into a true contender. Both players are averaging over 23 points a game. Meanwhile, the early-season trade for James Harden gave the team a proven ball distributor. With their big three finally assembled, the Clippers currently hold the 4th seed in the Western Conference.

Odell Beckham Jr Recalls Living At Drake’s Home During Break-In

January 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Odell Beckham Jr recently recalled being present during a break-in at Drake’s home. “Somehow [these guys] found The Boy’s house, broke into it. And man they come into the room like, ‘We made it to Drake’s crib!’ [Their] socks [were] dirty as hell like they had to crawl through the mountains to get here. So I had to try and play it cool. I had to dap them up but I was like, on edge at this point. They’re like, ‘OBJ wassup man! Can we get a picture? Can we get an autograph?’ OBJ told the Punch Line Podcast.

Furthermore, OBJ noted that things were able to resolved safely, “And to me, I don’t know if they’re carrying something. I don’t know what it was. So I gave them the picture, the autograph, boom – kicked them out. Instantly called security, instantly called cops. But I’m talking about broke into his house! I’ll never forget that. Broke into his house 7:30/8 in the morning. That’s insane!” he continued.

Odell Beckham Jr Speaks On Living With Drake

However, it’s not the first time that OBJ has spoken on his time living with Drake. In September 2023, he clarified what he meant by living with Drake. “Well, I think people have a misunderstanding of that. He was actually on tour and I was living there. Everyone was like, ‘Oh, they’re roommates!’ That wasn’t really it,” Beckham Jr. told GQ this week. Previously, the Ravens receiver had spoken on living at Drake’s Calabasas mansion during the 2016 offseason.

However, Beckham Jr. did speak on his long-standing friendship with Drake and how he spent some time linking up with the rapper around Europe. “I actually stayed in London [once] for two or three months with Von Miller. This was back when Drake was on tour, so our home base was London for a little bit of time. It was our offseason, so we went to Norway, Stockholm, Amsterdam, but London was the home base. That was my favorite hotel, actually. The Rosewood, they always take care of me.”

Rod Wave’s D.C. Show Victim To Car Break-Ins: Details

November 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Rod Wave is currently on tour to celebrate the release of one of his more successful records, Nostalgia. The fifth full-length project in the rapper’s discography is racking up the streams as of late. All five of Rod’s most popular songs are from his latest tape. Those are as follows: “Turks & Caicos” with 21 Savage, “Boyz Don’t Cry,” “Great Gatsby,” “Call Your Friends,” and “Fight The Feeling.” All of that amounted to around 137,000 units sold. To further cement the project’s status Rod is selling out shows and performing controversial stunts that have had everyone talking. Now, we have another interesting but scary development around his tour.

After a presumedly great show, fans felt like nothing could have gone wrong that night. However, there were a few unlucky concertgoers. Multiple cars were broken into across numerous parking lots. Some publications, including HipHopDX, were originally reporting that over 200 vehicles were tampered with. However, the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department (MPD), corrected those claims, clarifying that there were “approximately 10.”

This may not be surprising for D.C. residents, though. Since 2022, there has been a staggering 98 percent uptick in crime. These were taking place around Capital One Arena, the place where Rod Wave was performing. As of now, there is no word on any arrests. More information should hopefully be coming out in the next few days. We hope that everyone at that show got home safely.

What are your initial thoughts on all of these car break-ins at Rod Wave’s show in D.C.? Do you think that the attackers were aware of the concert? Should security in D.C. parking lots be put into play? We would like to know what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest breaking news around Rod Wave, as well as everything else going on around the music world.

Chet Hanks Allegedly Fights Off Burgular At LA Home

November 10, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Chet Hanks reportedly subdued a 42-year-old man earlier this week after discovering him attempting to enter his home. According to an LA County Sherriff’s report, Hanks had physically subdued the suspect, who continued to resist arrest once the authorities had arrived. This, according to law enforcement, ended with one deputy suffering a broken leg after the man fell on top of him. All of this occurred around 3:00AM this past Monday. The man has been charged with attempt burglary and the case has been passed onto the LA County District Attorney. However, it remains a developing story.

Hanks, the son of legendary actor Tom Hanks, has become an internet meme in recent years. Chet is a brash, outspoken Republican who is seemingly completely at odds with his quieter and more dignified father. Back in 2021, Hanks expressed a desire to fight DJ Vlad over comments that the controversial interviewer had made about him. Hanks has not yet released a statement of his own about the break-in at this home.

Furthermore, maybe Hanks’ love life is the source of his viligante-esque prowess. Hanks has been dating amateur MMA fighter Melissa Maysing since 2022. He was present at her debut fight in December of last year and the pair were seen canoodling on the beach this summer. Maysing has a fairly sizeable following on Instagram as a fitness influencer and started to pursue a career as an MMA fighter last year. However, there is very little information available about her career at this time.

Hanks has mostly kept a low profile in 2023, after becoming very visible in the public eye over the past few years. He made appearances on The Eric Andre Show and The Adam Friedland Show. However, that appears to be the extent of his major on-screen appearances for 2023. During the appearance on Adam Friedland’s show, Hanks revealed that he was two years sober at the time of recording.

DDG Claims Two Men Slapped Him After Breaking Into His Home, Shares Footage

September 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

DDG ran into some bad luck in his home the other day, or rather, he at least wasn’t subjected to a whole lot worse. Still, it wasn’t very fun for him to be woken up in the middle of the night with a slap by two pranksters, who broke into his home. Fortunately, it seems like they didn’t harm anyone else, steal anything, or put the rapper’s life any further in danger. All in all, especially given how he talked about it, it seems like this was all a big clout chase that took things way too far. The former YouTuber MC took to social media to vent briefly about the situation, and also to share alleged security footage of the incident.

“Whoever you are, I don’t know what type of sick game you think you playing,” he began. “I don’t know if you think it’s cool to sneak in my house and put your hands on me as a joke. It’s not funny.” Then, footage shows the two individuals slapping DDG in his bed and running out of the room. Afterwards, he wakes up, grabs a weapon, checks the area, and turns on the light when he sees it’s all clear.

However, it’s not like the Michigan native is completely out of luck as of late. This incident comes after some big recent wins for DDG, whether that concerns his personal life or his career. For example, he recently opened up Gunna’s sold-out show at Barclays Center in New York on Saturday (September 9). With hits like “Moonwalking in Calabasas,” the 25-year-old got the crowd ready while also probably introducing himself to a lot of new listeners.

Meanwhile, his relationship with Halle Bailey is as strong as ever, and continues to be a big source of joy in their lives. Sure, they have their fair share of haters, but who doesn’t in the celebrity world? All we can hope for is that this animosity stays online and doesn’t invade his home again.
