Kristin Cavallari Is Convinced That The Kanye West We Know Today Is A Clone

by

Overall, Kanye West is not the most agreeable person on the planet. His public comments and actions are the main drivers of that, with his music (especially recently) also chipping in to some extent. Sometimes, he may even come across as an alien to a few out there. That’s at least what actress Kristin Cavallari is kind of suggesting about Kanye West. The former Laguna Beach star firmly says that he’s actually a clone on the latest episode of her podcast, Let’s Be Honest, according to TMZ.

She posted the clip in which she discusses this topic with her co-host Justin Anderson on her Instagram page and fans seem to agree with her. Overall, she’s of this belief due to his new physical stature. Kristin used an older street interview with Ye as evidence in which he said, “If ever went anywhere, we’d know why.” Throughout the clip, she’s extremely steadfast with this theory, “Look at him. Compare old photos of him. It’s not the same f***ing person. It’s not. Don’t cancel me Hollywood.”

In fact, she even added that the Illuminati and the Cabal are somehow tied to this. Anderson is not really buying what she has to say, writing it off as Kanye just wanting to bulk up. He also questions how one of the biggest artists in the world would just suddenly disappear without anyone knowing. Cavallari has a response for that as well, as she suggests that these secret societies would kill anyone who tried to question it. “I believe this with every ounce in my body,” she added. It’s a steamy hot take, but there’s a large camp who agree.

What are your thoughts on Kristin Cavallari firmly believing that the current day Kanye West is a clone? Do you think she is way off the mark, why or why not? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Kanye West.

Hunxho Previews Keyshia Cole Collab As Fans Blast Her Tattoo Of His Name

by

Hunxho and Keyshia Cole continue to witness criticism after criticism of their relationship online, even over something as seemingly small as Cole getting the rapper’s birth name tattooed on her chest. Some fans think that such a decision is a pretty intense and fast-moving one, but how about a song to set their bond in stone? Hunxho recently dropped a preview of a new collab between them on social media, and fans had a pretty divisive reaction. Some admire the passion, others think that they’re throwing their careers away with all of this, and a few are still rooting for them.

Of course, this wouldn’t be the first time that Hunxho and Keyshia Cole’s relationship came up in a musical context. The former seemed to address their criticized fling in his song, “Part Of The Plan.” “If she’s older than my age does that mean we can’t date / Is that the law? I’ve never seen so many people judge,” he raps on the cut. Their age gap became one of the more controversial parts of the whole debacle, and their double-downs are what kept it going.

However, it’s not like there aren’t other suitors from Keyshia Cole’s life that are trying to compete with Hunxho for her heart. Antonio “AB” Brown continues to thirst for her online after their rocky relationship and subsequent breakup, even though he claimed to be the one to end things. Apparently, the singer wanted a long-term relationship, which AB wasn’t interested in. But these recent antics show that he might just want to head back down that road, or join in on the social media discussion. We’ll see what else he has to say about everything…

Meanwhile, folks also spread these rumors around Damian Lillard after he hung out with Keyshia Cole at a club recently. Hunxho never seemed to address that speculation online, so for a lot of stuff about these debates, they just ignore and keep on walking. Still, things got big enough for them to want to double down on wax and make the haters keep on typing. Maybe it ends up being a hit!

Nelly Fans Express Concern For Him After Alleged Drowsiness During Concert

by

Nelly recently reunited with St. Lunatics for a performance at the American Music Awards 50th Anniversary Special, but another concert drew discussion for more worrisome reasons. Or at least, that’s what many fans assumed. Basically, fans of the St. Louis artist expressed concern online after clips surfaced from a recent show where folks made note of his drowsy eyes, assuming that he’s either high or has something else going on. However, just as many fans thought that nothing was really out of the ordinary here, so we can chalk this up to fan speculation and reading pretty deeply into a performance.

If you’re curious, check out the comments section of the Instagram post below to see this divisive debate. Elsewhere, though, other Nelly fans focused on this recent St. Lunatics performance, especially given his legal troubles with the group. For those unaware, a lawsuit against him emerged that alleged that he never credited them for their work on the 2000 album Country Grammar. This legal filing came from member Ali Jones, but the rest of the Lunatics (Murphy Lee, Kyjuan, and City Spud) reportedly want their names removed from the lawsuit.

As such, it looks like there’s still a chance for Nelly and St. Lunatics to reach an amicable agreement, and it looks like there’s not much bad blood to speak on in this case. Except for Ali Jones. He spoke to DJ Vlad last year about his issues, which may explain why he wasn’t present at their recent performance. “A tiger ain’t never gon’ change his stripes,” Jones expressed. “I watched it for 20 years and I’m the butt of the joke because it took me 20 years to realize it.

“I could put a never, ever behind it will I ever hit the stage or do anything with him,” Ali Jones continued. “He has no real raw good intentions for others. Not for us and we’ve all sat together and searched hard to try to find a time that didn’t benefit him. He got $50 million, I’m happy for him. That’s what he wants. He wants a billion.” We’ll see what Nelly says about this lawsuit and about folks questioning his concert behavior.

Drake Notches An Incredible Streaming Stat After Becoming The Most Streamed Rapper For September

by

Drake, with all things considered, is still having a pretty good year. Sure, some people may be looking at him differently following the Kendrick Lamar battle, but the numbers seem to be a little conflicting. According to Akademiks TV (shocking…), he has recorded another insane streaming statistic in 2024. Just this past month, Drizzy’s numbers on Spotify eclipsed nine digits yet again. To be more exact, he clocked in around 1.1 billion. Obviously, the number of hits that he has in his possession is almost unmatched. However, despite a stacked catalog, this is still an impressive feat.

We say that because he has not really dropped anything of merit. Sure, there are the “100 GIGS” releases of “Circadian Rhythm,” “It’s Up,” “Housekeeping Knows,” as well as “No Face.” But these, along with some his features for artists like Camila Cabello, GORDO, and 4batz sort of came and went. Of course, the loss to Kendrick factors in too to some degree, making this all the more eye-popping.

With him achieving this, this also keeps another mind-bending stat alive. Over these first nine months, he’s been the most streamed rapper. Of course, with Akademiks posting this, you know there are going to be opposing fans looking to diminish this. “U need a license to ride ak,” one user on IG jokes. “Numbers don’t matter Kendrick still ended his career,” another boldly claims. Regardless, congratulations are in order for The Boy.

What are your thoughts on Drake becoming the most streamed rapper for September? Will he keep his streak alive for the rest of 2024? Does this prove anything to his haters?

Quavo Fans Debate Whether Or Not He Has A Baby

by

Outside of his extremely malicious beef with Chris Brown (and a lawsuit), Quavo has not been making a lot of headlines. However, the internet is absolutely losing their minds over a recent post-and-delete video. The Neighborhood Talk was able to get a hold of it before it was taken down and it sees the former Migos rapper boarding a private jet. Some people have been a little puzzled over why he would post him doing this, but that is not really why people are buzzing. Instead, it has to do with the fact that there is a crying baby on the plane with Quavo being one of the passengers.

It’s an unintentionally funny moment as the child decides to announce his presence as soon the potential father starts to walk through the cabin. Quavo even does what a dad would do when a baby begins to cry, saying in exaggerated fashion, “Okay.” Fans were quick to point out that detail, as well as noticing a car seat onboard. “Yea that was definitely a car seat peep the handle n the seat,” one IG user says.

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

While some were making light of the situation, others were making more mature observations. A lot of social media users seemed to not be a fan of The Neighborhood Talk‘s caption, “Now Quavo…you can’t just delete the post without telling the fans what’s tea? 👀😂.” This set some off. “If he does have a baby please explain why tf do y’all feel like he’s entitled to tell y’all?!!” “He was smart to keep it private.” Regardless of whose child it is, hopefully it had a safe flight.

What are your thoughts on Quavo possibly having a child? Do you think people deserve to know what’s up, why or why not? Could it have been a friend’s baby? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Quavo.

Lil Durk Divides Fans With His Dramatic “Deep Thoughts” Album Cover Art

by

Through the release of “Monitoring Me,” Lil Durk kicked off the rollout for his next album Deep Thoughts, which drops on Friday, October 18. He also shared the cover art with his social media followers: a black-and-white image of the Chicago rapper rising up from open water into the sky, adorned by an almost-fully covered crescent moon. Fan reactions were divisive, with some urging Smurk to get down from his high horse and others finding it to be quite the engaging image. It kind of reflects the overall reception to his music as of late, but he’s never backed down from the washed allegations.

However, some die-hards might be disappointed that Lil Durk isn’t coming out with two brand-new projects soon; just one. He called out a fake tracklist that circulated online for a hypothetical Love Songs 4 The Streets 3. It was quite an eclectic feature list, too: Future, Lil Baby, Rod Wave, Morgan Wallen, Sabrina Carpenter, and… Kai Cenat? And iShowSpeed? Well, we don’t blame fans for wanting to hear what this cocktail would’ve resulted in. Maybe later down the road…

Also, Lil Durk might not be giving these cover reactions much stock, as he has a lot of praise to fall back on from his Power Book II: Ghost costar, LeToya Tonodeo. “I thought he killed it!” she told TMZ of his performance. “And I hope he keeps going with it. Like, you know, it’s the series finale… *sighs* it’s coming to an end. At least Power Book II: Ghost. But you know what they say, power never ends. So we shall see. […] I think [Lil Durk has a magical quality]. I think so, I mean, he was dope to work with. Super cool, super chill. Yeah, I hope he keeps it going. I hope [we’ll see a lot of him in the future in Hollywood]. I hope so. You’d have to ask him, but in my opinion, I hope so.” Check out reactions to the Deep Thoughts artwork down below.

More Fan Takes

Meanwhile, DJ Akademiks recently previewed a collab between Lil Durk and Drake that many hope will end up on the former’s new album. Let’s see what the future holds…

Kendrick Lamar Faces Stingy Criticism For His GRAMMY Submissions

by

Kendrick Lamar, easily, had one of the strongest years of anyone and it’s all thanks to the evisceration of Drake. The kid from Compton has several of the biggest hip-hop records such as “Not Like Us” and “Like That”. Speaking of those two records, Kendrick Lamar officially sent them in for GRAMMY nomination consideration earlier this week. The dagger in the battle with Drizzy could have a chance to win five categories, including “Record of the Year,” “Song of the Year,” “Best Rap Performance,” and more. As for his viral feature on the latter, it’s gunning for four of five same awards as the most successful diss record ever.

Despite all of this assumed critical acclaim, there have been quite a lot of overly critical hip-hop fans, most of them being Drake stans (some Lil Wayne fans too). They have continued to claim again and again that he’s only been so relevant this year due to mentioning The Boy. Furthermore, Lamar has received lots of hate for getting the nod to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime Show, as even his MC counterparts have expressed how Weezy deserved it over him.

Twitter Has Mixed Reactions To Hip-Hop Fan’s Take On Kendrick Lamar’s GRAMMY Submissions

So, it’s not a shocker to us at all that the hitmaker is having to hear noise for his GRAMMY submissions. According to a repost from Akademiks TV, a hip-hop fan expresses in a Tik Tok how the award show has been overly dismissive of the genre for years. Essentially, he wonders why, Lamar would actively participate and do it “for the culture.” Some we in agreement, while others feel like it can’t hurt since he’s been so dominant at the show, despite some few robberies in the past.

More Reactions

What are your thoughts on Kendrick Lamar getting hate for submitting two songs for GRAMMY consideration? Do you think this hip-hop fan has a valid argument, why or why not? Will K. Dot take home any awards at next year’s show on February 2, 2025? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

NLE Choppa’s Baby Momma Puts IG Live In Charge Of Watching Her Child

by

NLE Choppa is always putting himself in some sort of position to be ridiculed. Whether it be his songs or activity on social media, his ability to get people riled up needs to be studied. For example, just a few weeks ago, he got people on Twitter all wound up over his “I’m Coming Out…” tweet. It turned out to be for a new single, as well as a reveal for a new album and apparel drop. This led to some divide, as some think he’s leveraging his love from the LGBTQ+ community too much. However, one of his baby mommas, Marissa Da’Nae, swooped in to defend his actions.

“He’s not gay, he’s just trolling y’all because y’all think he gay. Or whatever the f***, I don’t know why y’all troll him”. Now, though, it seems Choppa’s controversial behavior is rubbing off on Marissa, at least in the eyes of some online. According to a repost from livebitez, the mother of two of NLE Choppa’s kids hopped on IG Live while tending to their youngest, Chozen Wone. She appears to get some groceries delivered to the house, so she asks her audience to watch him while she’s away for a moment.

However, when she’s gone, you can still hear Marissa in the background while Chozen looks adorable in his playpen. She returns just seconds later, so we aren’t really sure as to why some are blowing this out of proportion. A fair number of people agree with our analysis, saying, “So, she was gone for less than a minute, I can’t stand these “perfect moms”. “This happens all day every day, he’s in a safe area in his play pen. I don’t get the issue”, another adds.

What are your thoughts on NLE Choppa’s baby momma leaving their child to be watched by IG Live viewers? Are people blowing this out of proportion, why or why not? Do you think him or Marissa Da’Nae will respond? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Lauryn Hill Dragged By Fans For A Tumultuous Show In Kenya

by

When it comes to a Lauryn Hill performance of any kind, you are going to have to expect the unexpected. While health issues are certainly a more than fair reason to put shows on hold, fans are still going to feel some type of way when cancelations become normal. Hill has always been extremely defensive when it comes to this topic, stating that it’s the media obsession with “sensationalism and clickbait headlines”. Additionally, she’s even told fans directly, “Y’all lucky I make it on this… stage every night”. While it certainly is a treat to be able to hear her play her songs in a live setting, the constant delays aren’t going to be able to leave supporters minds that easy.

Just take last night for example in Nairobi, Kenya. Ms. Lauryn Hill was scheduled to hit the stage at the Walker Town festival at 8 p.m. local time. But according to some tweets gathered by AllHipHop, one upset fan said, “Lauryn Hill was supposed to perform at 8 pm in Nairobi and was >4hrs late, finishing her set at 4.30/5.00 am… on a Monday?! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂”. To be fair, though, her and sound team were forced to deal with horrific technical issues throughout the performance.

On top of that, the soundcheck was not fully completed until hours later. However, it wasn’t just the concertgoers that were voicing their frustrations on Twitter. Residents close to the festivities were not too happy about the fireworks show that still went on after Lauryn’s time on stage. “Those fireworks at that hour on a Monday morning weren’t necessarily #WalkerTownNairobi. 10 whole minutes. I’m not even in #Kasa and they’ve got me spooked”, one tired person said. At this time, Hill has yet to respond to the backlash. But overall, it seems like it was just a mess of a night all around, with most of it being out of her control.

More Upset Fans

What are your thoughts on Lauryn Hill starting her show in Kenya around four hours after the initial start time? Do you think this trend will ever stop at this point? Does this stain her legacy for you at all? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Dwyane Wade Divides Thirsty Fans And Dismissive Haters Over New Cover Shoot

by

Dwyane Wade is far more of a divisive pop culture figure than he should be, but he’s still got plenty of supporters looking past the bigoted backlash to his LGBTQIA2+ allyship. If you need proof of that, look no further than the reception to his latest CR Men Fashion Book photoshoot for its cover. Some fans are lusting over the basketball superstar in the comments section, whereas others are making fun of his style and of his previous life choices. There’s a lot of discrimination to unpack, a lot of thirsty comments, and also plenty of debate within the comments section.

Furthermore, Boose Badazz most recently offered his conflicted thoughts on Dwyane Wade, specifically about his nail care brand. “I don’t even got to say nothing,” he said of sexuality rumors that the brand caused. “The world is going to say it. […] I don’t know. I mean… He part of the movement. I mean, I don’t like to say too much about those people because I don’t want that to be in my motherf***ing… When people think of me, they think of that. A lot of people do, but… I just, you know, he do what he do. He feel like that’s how he support his… It make me shake my head. Because, you know, I don’t like that, bro. When… I don’t know. He might be living through… I don’t know, I don’t know.”

Dwyane Wade’s Newest Cover Shoot

Elsewhere, Shaq recently revealed how an argument with Dwyane Wade resulted in an NBA championship. “D-Wade, our first argument was in the Finals,” he told Draymond Green on the Warrior’s podcast. “We go down 0-2. I’m declining as Shaq. I’m going through a divorce. I’m not Shaq. My first three guys are terrible, awful. So I pulled D-Wade in the room and said, ‘What the f**k you gonna do man?’

“‘Motherf***er, you want to be the man, what the f**k you gonna do?’” Shaq recalled. “I wasn’t trying to fight; I was just asking questions. He had a look of relief like, ‘Oh, I can?’ So yeah, motherf***er, I got four people on me.’ And he said, ‘Okay, Shaq.’ And he went off.” As you can see, Dwyane Wade turns any form of pressure into diamonds.
