If the Chiefs are victorious, the Toronto rapper will bring in over $2.3 million in earnings.

Fans had mixed responses to the bet in the comments section. “Drake has the script,” one user joked. Another wrote: “NINER GANG! Till the death of me.” Others shared gifs of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.

You’ve got a lot of people that care about Taylor, and for good reason. You’ve just got to keep living and learning and enjoying the moments.” Check out Drake’s bet on Kelce and the Chiefs below.

Super Bowl LVIII: Everything You Need To Know About Chiefs-49ers

February 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Super Bowl Sunday is finally upon us. After 20 weeks of high-octane football, just two teams remain in the race for the Lombardi Trophy. The Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers descend upon Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas for Super Bowl LVIII. A rematch of Super Bowl LIV, can the Chiefs become the first back-to-back champions since 2004? Or will the 49ers lift the Lombardi for the first time since 1995? Let’s make the case for both teams.

Kansas City Chiefs (Taylor’s Version)

For the fourth time in the seven years since drafting Patrick Mahomes, the Chiefs are in the Super Bowl. The NFL’s contemporary synonym for success, KC is looking to truly establish itself as a dynasty. However, the journey to become the first back-to-back champions since the ’04 Pats has been harder than in previous years. Going 11-6, the Chiefs were 9th in offensive yardage and 15th in scoring. The team continued to run through the established battery of Mahomes and Travis Kelce (23% of Mahomes passing yards, targeted 20% of the time). However, the Chiefs also found a draft gem in Rashee Rice (Drafted at #55, 938 yards). Furthermore, sophomore back Isiah Pacheco was nearly a 1000-yard running back.

However, the true power of this team was its defense. Justin Reid and Trent McDuffie (175 tackles between them) prowled downfield relentlessly. Meanwhile, Chris Jones and George Karlaftis (21 sacks combined) made opposing quarterbacks live in fear for 60 minutes a week. Overall, the defensive unit was second in yards allowed and points allowed. This has continued into the postseason, where three high-scoring offenses (Miami, Buffalo, Baltimore) have all been suffocated. This has been especially important in the latter two games, where the offense has struggled to run away with games.

Of course, we must also mention Taylor Swift, the team’s informal good luck charm after making her relationship with Travis Kelce public in Week 3. However, Swift will likely be absent from Vegas due to a quartet of Eras Tour shows in Tokyo ending the day before the Super Bowl.

If You’re Going To (The) San Francisco (49ers)…

The San Francisco 49ers return to the Super Bowl for the first time since 2020 when they lost to Kansas City. A 12-5 team in the regular season, the Niners were 2nd in offensive yardage and 3rd in scoring. Brock Purdy continued to prove that draft position means nothing, throwing for over 4200 yards and 31 touchdowns. The name of the game for San Francisco is overwhelming force. They had two 1000-yard receivers in Brandon Aiyuk and George Kittle. Add in the league’s best rusher Christian McCaffrey (1459 yards, 14 touchdowns) and you get an offense that simply cannot be stopped.

The defense also shone in the Bay. 9th in yards allowed and 3rd in points allowed is what you’d expect from a five-loss team but is still impressive nonetheless. It all starts with the defensive line itself. Linebacking duo Fred Warner and Dre Greenlaw combined for 252 tackles while the edge wasn’t any safer with 10.5 sacks from Nick Bosa. Not to say the defensive backs are any less impressive, but it’s less of a concern when the ball often doesn’t get past the line of scrimmage.

However, are the 49ers simply waiting to choke? Both of their playoff wins have been by a field goal. Against the Lions in the Conference championship, they needed to make the largest comeback in NFC Championship history to erase a 17-point halftime deficit. Despite their dominance, despite the regular season accolades, the 49ers have been unable to build a lead and hold it when it comes to the playoffs.

Chiefs-49ers: Who Wins?

Super Bowl LVIII is widely expected to come down to the wire. The Niners enter as -1.5 favorites. However, the over/under is set at a surprisingly generous 47.5. The matchup features two of the hardest teams to score on in the league this season. that means yards and points will be at a premium. It is also where the 49ers’ edge in this game emerges from.

The Chiefs offense lives and dies with Patrick Mahomes. Especially with the Warner-Greenlaw tandem shutting down the run, the Chiefs need Mahomes connecting through the air. Meanwhile, Brock Purdy doesn’t need to carry the 49ers. If Reid and McDuffie create too much of a no-fly zone, Purdy can lean on CMC’s unstoppable legs. If the Chiefs lean hard into stopping McCaffery, there are two 1000-yard receivers for Purdy to connect with.

Prediction: San Francisco 49ers 23 – 20 Kansas City Chiefs. As mentioned, this is likely not going to be a game where touchdowns are traded back and forth for 60 minutes. This is a game that will be won on defense. With touchdowns at a premium, the 49ers go up three late in the fourth but are able to deny Mahomes his signature game-winning drive with a last-stand defensive effort. But let us know how you think the game will play out in the comments.

Travis Kelce Ex Spotted With Jackson Mahomes

February 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kayla Nicole, the ex-girlfriend of Travis Kelce, was spotted spending nearly an hour with Jackson Mahomes at a Vegas casino this week. The pair were caught on camera chatting and seemingly swapping contact information in photos acquired by TMZ. Nicole was Kelce’s longtime paramour before they broke up in 2022. Kelce would then go on to form a relationship with Taylor Swift.

Meanwhile, Mahomes, the controversial younger brother of the Chiefs QB, is coming off a major legal win. Last month, prosecutors filed a motion to dismiss three felony sexual battery charges from their case against Jackson Mahomes. Per TMZ‘s sources, the alleged victim has been uncooperative. This has meant that the prosecution has had to amend the scope of their investigation. The woman, a restaurant manager in Overland Park told prosecutors that she does not want to press charges. This was despite video evidence of the alleged assault emerging online. Furthermore, sources have gone as far as to say that the woman had threatened to say she had been untruthful about the assault and that her encounter with Mahomes had been wholly consensual.

Travis Kelce Ex Done With Athletes

Meanwhile, Nicole recently revealed that she has some new dating preferences. Nicole said that after splitting with Kelce, she’s mostly over athletes. “I’ll never say never, but I fully, wholeheartedly believe that I am out of the athlete stage. I would love to just date someone that…I do think that I am attracted to men in positions of power. I also think that those types of men are attracted to me. So, I would love to date an executive of a record label or a movie producer so that we can go to sporting events. Let date night be courtside at the Lakers game, that’s my kind of guy,” Nicole said on the Behind The Likes podcast. Despite this, Nicole did recently shoot her shot with Eagles QB Jalen Hurts.

Kelce and Nicole dated on and off for several years before finally calling it quits in 2022. Later, Nicole explained that she had had to remove Brittany Mahomes and other Chiefs-affiliated people from her social media because it was too painful for her to see them living their lives with Kelce and Kelce’s new beau.

Jason Kelce Defends NFL Media’s Coverage Of Taylor Swift: “She’s A World Star”

February 3, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Jason Kelce says he has no issue with the NFL media’s coverage of Taylor Swift. He discussed his brother Travis’ relationship with Swift with Caleb Noe, a reporter for Cincinnati ABC affiliate WCPO 9, in a recent interview.

“The attention is there because the audience wants to see it,” Jason said. “I mean, if people didn’t want to see it, they wouldn’t be showing it. I know that. She’s a world star. She’s the quintessential artist right now in the world, singer-songwriter, immensely talented, unbelievable role model for young women across the globe. So I think that the NFL would probably be foolish not to, you know, show her and be a role model for all the young girls out there.”

Travis Kelce & Taylor Swift Celebrate Chiefs’ Victory

Throughout the season, Swift has been in attendance at numerous Kansas City Chiefs games in support of her boyfriend, Travis. In turn, the cameras, as well as the NFL’s social media pages, have often shifted their focus to the pop star. Check out Jason’s opinion on the situation below.

Travis Kelce Confirms Taylor Swift Relationship Origin Story

February 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Kelce has corroborated the origin story of his relationship with Taylor Swift that Swift told TIME late last year. Speaking on The Pat McAfee Show, Kelce confirmed that they had been seeing each other for around a month before Swift’s appearance at a Chiefs game in September. However, Kelce also revealed that he had “put the ball in her court” a few days before the game. While he was aware she had already plans to attend, he made things official by explicitly asking her if she would like to attend. “It’s been a crazy, crazy ride I could have never anticipated, man, but I’m having fun with it,” Kelce told the ESPN host.

However, as mentioned, Kelce did not say anything fans didn’t already know. Swift was the first to break the silence on how their relationship began. “This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell. We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew. Which, I’m grateful for because we got to get to know each other. By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple. I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date,” Swift told TIME.

Is Travis Kelce Attending The Grammys?

“It’s been a crazy, crazy ride I could have never anticipated, man, but I’m having fun with it.”

Meanwhile, Kelce also used his appearance on McAfee’s show to address speculation as to whether he would be Swift’s date to the Grammys this weekend. “I wish I could go support Taylor at the Grammys and watch her win every single award that she’s nominated for. Unfortunately, I’ve got to get ready for this big ol’ Super Bowl we got in a week,” Kelce told McAfee. Swift is up for six awards. This includes “Album of the Year”, an award that Swift could become the first four-time winner of.

However, as Kelce alluded to, he will be unable to attend as the Chiefs prepare to face the 49ers in the Super Bowl on February 11. Conversely, Swift will be unlikely to attend the Super Bowl in Vegas. She is scheduled to perform in Tokyo from February 7 – 10. However, following the game, the couple is expected to reunite. Furthermore, Kelce is expected to join Swift across the Asian and European legs of her Eras Tour.

Patrick Mahomes Responds to Viral “Dad Bod” Meme

January 31, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Patrick Mahomes has responded to the viral “dad bod” meme that arose in the wake of the Chiefs AFC Championship win last weekend. “Yoooo why they have to do me like that!?!?!? #DadBodSZN,” Mahomes wrote on X, formerly Twitter. The QB was responding to footage from Inside the NFL that went viral amid the Chiefs win. The footage showed a shirtless Mahomes celebrating in the locker room and the angle gave the star player a bit of a gut.

This of course went wild on NFL socials, with fans eagerly sharing the images and changing their handles to things such as “Fatty Patty” and similar names. The Chiefs leaned on their defense to shut out the Ravens in the AFC Championship Game. Mahomes threw for 241 yards and a touchdown in the win.

Patrick Mahomes & Travis Kelce Speak On Justin Tucker Beef

Meanwhile, Mahomes also spoke on the beef that has emerged between himself, Travis Kelce, and Ravens kicker Justin Tucker. Mahomes said Tucker’s behavior has become a regular occurrence when the Chiefs and Ravens play. “I’ve had seven years of doing that same warmup routine and there’s only been like three occasions where there’s been a kicker that wasn’t moving out of the way. It was in Baltimore all three times. He does that to get under our skin. I asked him to move his stuff and he got up and moved it I think two inches but didn’t move it out of the way. I was going to let it slide but Travis moved it for me and after that I wasn’t going to let him put it back down,” Mahomes told local sports radio in Kansas City.

Meanwhile, Travis Kelce also blamed Tucker, saying he had broken an “unwritten rule”. During the latest episode of New Heights, Kelce explained that Tucker had been a “f-cking d-ck” and had been purposefully messing with Mahomes and Kelce as they warmed up. “If you want to be a f-cking d-ck about it, you keep your helmet and your football and your f-cking kicking tee right where the quarterbacks are warming up and they’re dropping, eyes are looking left and they’ve got a helmet down by their feet,” Kelce told his brother.

Travis Kelce Blasted For Justin Tucker Disrespect At AFC Championship Game

January 28, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Things are already popping off at the AFC Championship Game. During pre-game warmups, Travis Kelce was seen kicking and throwing equipment belonging to veteran Ravens placekicker Justin Tucker. Fans immediately piled on the “disrespectful” behavior. “Mahomes and kelce are some losers for that low key,” one fan noted. Meanwhile, several other fans noted how good the “inevitable” game-winning field goal from Tucker was going to feel.

The Chiefs looking for their third Super Bowl appearance in the last four years. Meanwhile, the Ravens are hoping to reach their first Super Bowl since 2012. Ravens coach John Harbaugh was joined by his brother, newly-appointed Chargers head coach Jim, on the sideline in Baltimore. The game is expected to be close, with the deciding factor likely being on the defense.

Mural Of Taylor Swift In A Ravens Jersey Appears In Maryland

A post shared by SportsCenter (@sportscenter)

The two fanbases have been chirping at one another all week. A Maryland-based artist and Ravens fan has taken trash-talking to a new level with his latest Taylor Swift-inspired piece. The artist, known as Dlordink on social media, showcased an intricate mural of Taylor Swift wearing a Ravens jersey ahead of the team’s matchup against the Chiefs this weekend. Furthermore, Dlordink called out Swift and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. “Tag @taylorswift & @killatrav in the comments and let them know how good she looks in @new_era8 @ravens purple,” he added as a caption.

Swift is expected to head to Baltimore this week as the Chiefs look for their third Super Bowl appearance in four years. However, the Ravens are hosting for the first time in franchise history. This ends a run of five consecutive championship home games for Kansas City. Meanwhile, Chiefs fans have tried to play off the trash talk. “Huh. Weird. I have to say, as a Chiefs fan, we kinda…don’t think about you at all. But whatever makes you feel better about things. Enjoy the crab cakes,” one fan replied on Twitter.
