Joe Budden Reveals His Unbelievable Podcast Earnings

It’s no secret that Joe Budden is a powerful force in hip hop, with the NYC-born personality’s podcast racking up hundreds of thousands of views weekly. This, of course, raises the question of whether or not this actually translates to cash. Luckily, the subject came up during a recent episode, prompting him to open up about how much he’s earned over his ten years of podcasting.

“Off podcasting, off of this?” he began. “All together in the whole ten years? About $4M… Gross is $7M.” The room then erupted into laughter, and his co-hosts questioned whether or not he was being totally transparent. He insisted that he was, but some of them still weren’t buying it.

Joe Budden Claims He Earned $4M In 10 Years

“Early on we were doing it for free. Then we hit a little lick, Spotify. Then n***as left, the building crumbled a little bit, and my friends came and saved the day. Probably about $3.5-$4.5M… I’m serious, why do y’all think I’m lying?” Clearly, Budden isn’t looking to provide his audience with exact figures at this point. While $4M doesn’t sound too bad to most, his co-hosts and countless commenters suspect that the number is actually much higher. “Listen, years of hard work, y’all could do it too,” Budden told viewers. “It’s not unachievable. Like, this is not unimaginable if you work hard, keep your head down to the finish line man, and just focus on the content and what you need to do… $4.5M.”

What do you think of Joe Budden joking about how much he’s earned through The Joe Budden Podcast? How much do you think the personality has actually brought in over the past ten years? Do you think it was more than $4M? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Nicki Minaj Hurls Object Into Crowd During Show, Sparking Cardi B Comparisons

Nicki Minaj has kept herself busy as of late, making her way across North America on her eagerly anticipated Pink Friday 2 world tour. So far, her performances have been nothing short of impressive, with the femcee delivering hit after hit. She’s also been joined by several celebrity guests like 50 Cent, Tyga, JT, and many more.

While the Queen of Rap is surely having a blast celebrating her new album with fans, that doesn’t mean the tour has been totally free of annoyances. During a recent show, for example, someone threw an object at her during “Starships.” In a clip from the shocking moment, it nearly hits her in the head. Luckily, it just missed her, though it did leave her visibly irritated.

Nicki Minaj Has Had Enough Of Thrown Objects

Looking outraged, Nicki picked the item up off the ground, promptly hurling it back into the crowd. It’s unclear what exactly the object was, but fortunately, it looked pretty small. It’s also unconfirmed whether or not anybody was hit after the “FTCU” rapper threw it. Either way, most fans can agree that she was justified, particularly considering reports of other artists being injured in similar situations. After all, she still has all of Europe, the UK, and Australia to get to.

The clip has, however, caused viewers to look back on another instance of a femcee throwing something into the crowd. This, of course, is Cardi B’s infamous viral mic throw of last year. For those who don’t recall, someone splashed the “Enough” rapper with a drink onstage, prompting her to launch a microphone at them. “This is giving cardi b,” one commenter writes. “She wants to be Cardi B so bad,” another claims. What do you think of Nicki Minaj hurling an object thrown at her onstage back into the crowd? What about social media users comparing the incident to Cardi B’s mic throw?

Ashanti Puts Her Baby Bump On Full Display After Pregnancy Announcement

Following months of relentless pregnancy rumors, Ashanti finally confirmed last week that she and Nelly are expecting their first child together.

On top of the pregnancy, Ashanti also revealed that she and Nelly are now engaged. This, of course, gives the growing family yet another reason to celebrate.

Up until the announcement, Ashanti seemed to be keeping her bump under wraps with oversized outfits. These days, however, she’s feeling free as a bird to put it all on display. In a new clip, she’s seen performing onstage in a figure-hugging black dress, which she paired with a rhinestone-studded jacket. Clearly, the songstress was eager to trade her iconic jersey dresses for something a bit more glamorous, and fans are totally here for it.

Ashanti Glows Onstage

In an interview with Essence following the pregnancy announcement, Ashanti expressed her excitement for motherhood, claiming that her experience has been nothing short of “amazing” so far. It remains unclear exactly how far along she is at this point. It’s speculated, however, that she’s at least five months. “This new year of my life is such a blessing full of love, hope and anticipation,” she told the outlet. “Motherhood is something that I have looked forward to, and sharing this with my family, fiancé, and loyal fans, who have been so supportive of my career, is an amazing experience.”

As expected, fans are out in full force with words of support for Ashanti and Nelly as they prepare for the next step of their journey, and can’t wait to see what else they have in store for them.

Offset & Clubgoer Get Into Wild Fight Over Thrown Cash: Watch

Lately, it’s appeared as though Offset has been working hard at putting his best foot forward. Last month, for example, he stopped by a high school in Baltimore to hand out groceries. A couple of weeks later, he surprised some Detroit students with a personal meet and greet. Overall, it’s clear that he has a good heart and is eager to give back. With that being said, he also doesn’t tolerate any disrespect, as evidenced by his infamous 2020 takedown of a strip club attendee who sprayed Cardi B with champagne.

Unfortunately, the former Migos member once again found himself at the center of a fight this weekend, though exactly what prompted it is still unconfirmed. In a clip making its rounds online, Offset is seen onstage at a club, seemingly making his exit. As he walks away, someone in the crowd showers him with cash, and he quickly turns back around.

Offset Makes It Rain In A Bad Way

Offset then makes his way across the stage towards the person who threw the money and attempts to grab a hold of them. Luckily, it seems like security intervened just in the nick of time, preventing things from escalating too much further. Offset and the unspecified individual then threw money at each other for a while before being told to “relax.”

Now, social media users are speculating exactly why the fight started in the first place, and most can agree that the thrown cash was to blame. It’s suspected that Offset could have perceived it as an insinuation that he’s broke, or just became annoyed with all the flexing. What do you think of Offset getting heated onstage at a club recently? Are you surprised? What do you think prompted his reaction?

Boosie Badazz’s Daughter Toriana Gets Candid About Their Relationship: “I Don’t Need Him”

It’s no secret that Boosie Badazz’s family life has gotten complicated in the past, and recently, one of his daughters decided to open up about it online. Earlier this week, his daughter Toriana took to Instagram Live to share her thoughts on her relationship with the rapper. She revealed that while he’s done his part in some ways, it’s not been enough.

“‘You need your dad,’” Toriana read out loud, a comment that appears to have come from a viewer. “B*tch, I never said I didn’t. But it’s gotten to the point that I don’t need him.” She continued, arguing that Boosie had 16 years to prove himself, and hasn’t managed to do so.

Toriana Addresses Rocky Relationship With Her Father

While some note that the 16-year-old has a right to feel how she does about her father, others wish they would work things out, once and for all. Her livestream follows a social media spat they had publicly in July of last year. It was prompted when Boosie confiscated the car he had gifted her for her birthday. According to Toriana, he only took the vehicle back because he was upset she left Atlanta to care for her mother. He denies this, instead claiming that Toriana left “out of nowhere” after learning that her mother had filed for child support.

Things got pretty heated at the time, and eventually, the Louisiana-born performer released a song about the debacle called “Ungrateful.” On it, he throws various jabs at both his daughter and her mother. Toriana’s mother later filed harassment charges against Boosie, making it so he was no longer allowed to contact her or their daughter. What do you think of Boosie Badazz’s daughter opening up about their relationship on social media? What about her claiming that she doesn’t “need” her dad?

Sukihana Fuels Ray J Dating Rumors, Shows Off Luxury Gifts

Ray J and Princess Love decided to officially go their separate ways for the fourth time in February. Since then, he’s been spotted various times alongside none other than Sukihana. The two of them bought out Chanel earlier this month, for example, in celebration of the launch of his latest endeavor, Tronix Network. Suki is set to executive produce a series on the network, Little Coochies of Las Vegas, though further details of that have yet to be revealed.

While it’s apparent that the duo have created a solid business relationship, some social media users speculate that it might be more. This was only compounded when the Baddies icon took to Instagram to show off some lavish gifts he recently spoiled her with. Yesterday (April 19), she posted a clip of a room flooded with designer shopping bags, shoe boxes, and more. She later posted footage of her and her daughter getting off a private jet, seemingly in Vegas.

“So thankful [teary-eyed emoji],” she captioned the carousel. “Idk what to say thank you, @rayj.” Obviously, this could all just be the beginning of the production of her show. Commenters can’t help but suspect that things are heating up between the two reality stars, however, though this is unconfirmed.

Even though things could be looking up for Ray J on the relationship front these days, he still has quite a few loose ends to tie up regarding his split from Princess Love. Earlier this month, he responded to her divorce filing with a request for joint physical and legal custody of their two children. What do you think of all the luxury gifts Ray J bought for Sukihana? What about the two of them sparking dating rumors? Would they make a good couple? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Finesse2tymes Makes Baffling Admission About How He Made $200 While Broke

Earlier this week, Finesse2tymes took to social media to open up about the absurb lengths he once went to while broke, and his revelation has left fans shocked and disturbed. In a new clip, he admits that he once watched the mother of his kids have sex with someone else in exchange for roughly $200. According to him, he’s simply “cut different,” as evidenced by how far he was willing to go for a buck.

For obvious reasons, social media users have a lot to say about his claim, with many arguing that he should have kept this one to himself. “That was a ‘take it to the grave’ thing,” one Instagram commenter says. “Yeah this isn’t a flex,” another writes.

Finesse2tymes Admits He Watched The Mother Of His Kids Have Sex With Someone Else For Money

While most viewers are outraged by his admission, others aren’t too surprised. He made a similar revelation during his recent, heated online exchange with NBA YoungBoy. Last week, YB posted a photo of Finesse’s pregnant girlfriend FNG Shugga in an attempt to taunt him. Instead of being offended, however, Finesse took the opportunity to try to make some cash. He offered the rapper a FaceTime call with the mother-to-be in exchange for $250K. “Somebody tell @nba_youngboy u must forgot I’m from Memphis homie we aint tender #Making #Easy #Money #Pimpin #H*es #Is #Serious,” he said at the time. “Tell him come on wit it.”

Unfortunately, YB no longer seemed interested. In fact, he fired back with full force, and promptly questioned how the Tennessee-born performer was raised and by who. What do you think of Finesse2tymes revealing that he once witnessed the mother of his kids have sex with someone for $200? What about all of the backlash he’s receiving for the shocking revelation? Should he have kept this between them? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

N.O.R.E. Impresses Fat Joe With Shocking Hair Transformation: “It’s Real!”

Late last month, N.O.R.E. took to social media to announce that he’d be growing his hair out in an attempt to beat the “bald” allegations once and for all. Now, the Drink Champs host is proudly sporting his new style, but the transformation is almost too impressive for fans and peers to believe. According to him, however, it’s 100 percent real.

One of the first of N.O.R.E.’s friends to weigh in on his new look was Fat Joe, who seems to have taken a liking to it, based on a recent social media post. N.O.R.E. shared a clip of himself and the rapper on Instagram earlier this week, in which Fat Joe brushes his hair in disbelief. “It’s real!” he repeated. The transformation was even enough to get Fat Joe to consider one of his own, joking that he might head to Turkey sometime soon.

Fat Joe Is Amazed By N.O.R.E.’s New Hair

“U know it’s bad when ya best freind / brother don’t belive you and think u went to turkey [crying face emojis] this isn’t right !! This my real sh*t,” N.O.R.E. captioned his post. He later went on to credit an at-home hair dye kit for his revitalized appearance, the same one previously promoted by Fat Joe and DJ Khaled.

His new hair isn’t the only thing N.O.R.E. has changed up about his appearance in recent months, however. Earlier this year, he also opened up about his weight loss journey, revealing that several social media users thought it was too good to be true. He faced accusations of using Ozempic, and even being a clone, but insists it was all thanks to time well spent at the gym. What do you think of N.O.R.E.’s new hair? Do you think Fat Joe should look into hair transformation too? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Teyana Taylor Shows Off Her Impressive Twerking Skills To Nicki Minaj Throwback

Teyana Taylor recently stepped out for the 2024 Revolve Festival, and based on her latest social media posts, the songstress had a blast. In one clip, she’s seen soaking up the sun in a sheer blue dress, which she paired with a fun white cowgirl hat. As she sipped on her drink, she fittingly threw it back to Nicki Minaj’s “Dance (A$$) Remix” with Big Sean.

As expected, countless Instagram commenters are now thirsting for the Harlem-born performer and her impressive dancing skills. Plenty are also praising her for her allegiance to Nicki Minaj, noting how over ten years later, the song still hits. Of course, Taylor appeared to have the lyrics down pat.

Teyana Taylor At Revolve Festival

“Ate the girls up and down fully dressed,” one social media user writes. “Her body SO DAMN TEA!,” another notes. Unfortunately, several other commenters are curious about what this means for Taylor’s friendship with one of Nicki’s longtime rivals, Cardi B. “Cardi about to foam from the mouth,” one user says. Regardless, her supporters are glad to see her back outside and serving looks, particularly following her split from her ex, Iman Shumpert.

The former pair announced their divorce late last year, and have since been making headlines for their claims about one another in legal docs ever since. Just a few weeks ago, for example, Taylor accused Shumpert of leaving their children confused after having a lady friend stay the night at his home while they were present. She asked the court to allow a child psychologist to testify on the matter. What do you think of Teyana Taylor showing off her impressive twerking skills at Revolve Fest?

Young Thug Looks Annoyed In Court On 61st Day Of RICO Trial: Watch

Young Thug’s ongoing YSL RICO trial reached its 61st day today, and it’s safe to say that everyone involved has had enough. The lengthy trial is already on track to becoming the longest in Georgia’s state history and doesn’t show any signs of reaching a conclusion any time soon. During his latest court appearance, Young Thug made his frustration clear, locking eyes with a courtroom camera with annoyance written all over his face.

Of course, the stakes are pretty high here, as Thugger could be looking at a hefty prison sentence if the trial doesn’t go as he hopes. Regardless, anyone is likely to become jaded as the extensive list of witnesses takes the stand. Countless social media users are weighing in on his courtroom eye-roll, noting how tired he looks and calling for his freedom.

Young Thug Has Had Enough

Unfortunately, it’s possible that the trial could just be getting started. Last month, one of Yak Gotti’s attorneys filed a motion asking to shave down the prosecution’s list of over 400 witnesses. According to them, the list could push the trial all the way into mid-2027. The judge responded by removing several people from the witness list, Lil Wayne included.

This is far from the only courtroom clip of Young Thug to have made its rounds online as of late, however. Last week, a clip of him wearing earbuds and bobbing his head to some music went viral. Fans couldn’t help but share their guesses of what he was listening to. Most agreed that it was probably Future and Metro Boomin’s new album, We Still Don’t Trust You, though this hasn’t been confirmed. Hopefully, the trial will come to a close sooner rather than later, for the sake of the rapper and everyone else involved. What do you think of Young Thug looking visibly annoyed during his latest court appearance? Can you blame him? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.
