Drake Draws Laughs From Internet Trolls Thanks To His Mansion Basketball Tournament

by

If you follow Drake, you know he loves his sports. Whether its betting, spectating or even playing, he’s going to be a part of it in any way possible. Even though he’s into a lot of different professional leagues, basketball has always seemed to be the one he’s most consistent with. After all, he does have a lot of ties to the hometown Toronto Raptors. Furthermore, Drake is always posting photos or videos from his own indoor court at his lavish mansion. In fact, in early June, The Boy shared himself getting some work in with some of his boys after the end of the Kendrick Lamar beef.

That post captioned “Members.” perhaps seemed to be foreshadowing the now tournament that seems to have just gotten underway. According to a repost from 2Cool2Blog, one of his cameramen gave the rapper’s fans a sneak peek of everyone warming up, including the MC himself. Basketball tournaments at his house are nothing new and the running joke around them is that he always wins them, and that the competition is sorry.

LOL Basketball tournament with yes men where nobody guards him. LOL”, one user remarks. “N****z look sorry af 😂”, another laughs. “Let me guess he wins the championship 🍎”, someone else quips. The internet is always going to be savage, but it seems that Drake is enjoying his time and that’s what’s important.

Eminem Fans Let Down By Lack Of Alchemist Beats On “The Death Of Slim Shady” Deluxe

by

Yesterday, Eminem unveiled The Death Of Slim Shady: Expanded Mourner’s Edition. The project boasts two brand-new tracks and a new skit. It even features a remix of “Fuel,” which includes several new and scathing Diddy disses. For the most part, fans are feeling the deluxe edition of Em’s latest album. They’ve been quick to point out, however, that none of the new tracks were produced by The Alchemist.

The Alchemist appeared in the trailer for the Expanded Mourner’s Edition of the LP, which Eminem dropped earlier this week. Of course, this led to speculation that he’d be a contributor, although this was never confirmed. Regardless, some fans are disappointed that the project arrives with no beats by the legendary producer, and questioning why he appeared in the trailer at all.

“Be Eminem’s promotion team: Film a whole trailer with The Alchemist in it, teasing songs produced by him. Proceed to drop one remix of a song that already dropped and two songs that were exclusive [face palm emoji],” one social media user writes. “Bro where is Alchemist production? You keep playing with my emotions,” another says. “@Eminem @rosenberg Why trailer with Alchemist and all that promo for 1 remix ? I don’t understand,” someone else claims.

New music isn’t the only thing Eminem is making headlines for these days, however. Earlier this week, he performed at the VMAs, throwing it back with a recreation of his iconic “The Real Slim Shady” performance from the 2000 awards show. What do you think of The Death Of Slim Shady: Expanded Mourner’s Edition? What about the new additions not featuring production by The Alchemist, despite him appearing in the trailer? Are you disappointed by this or not? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Playboi Carti Or Future? Fans Completely Befuddled On Who Dropped “ALL RED”

by

It looks like Playboi Carti is finding himself in a Desiigner situation this morning after dropping “ALL RED”. It’s the lead single for his eagerly awaited fourth studio album, I AM MUSIC, and it was announced pretty last minute. As soon as this news came through, his passionate fans were so ready for this new era for him to finally begin. However, after spinning the track listeners don’t know who released the song. “Is it Playboi or Future?”, is essentially the question that a lot of people are asking themselves this morning.

According to XXL, it’s a pretty trending topic right now on X, and you can see all the perplexed tweets, below. Overall, Carti has been moving in this darker and deeper direction with his voice for about a year or so know. However, it’s so hard to not hear his fellow Atlantan instead. It’s pretty uncanny how the now 29-year-old was able to pull off such a similar delivery to Future.

Playboi Carti’s Future Impersonation Has Fans In A Bind

You can slightly hear a difference in the pitch, as it does sound a little higher. But overall, it seems that it’s too close for a lot of people because there are some upset fans out there. Additionally, there’s even some out there who are theorizing Carti dropped a Future song on purpose to get the label off his back. With listeners growing more impatient with every day that passes without the album, “ALL RED” the hitmaker kind of put himself in a precarious situation. Unless he proves the angry mob wrong, they will be calling him Playboi Future Carti.

More Tweets

What are your thoughts on fans saying Playboi Carti is sounding like Future on his new single “ALL RED”? Do you think this is a good direction for him to go in for I AM MUSIC, why or why not? Does this dampen your previous expectations after hearing the track? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Chrisean Rock Officially Changes Her Son’s Name

by

Chrisean Rock is now a free woman. For most of the internet that isn’t a good thing. Anytime her, her family, or Blueface are brought up, its groans galore. Today, people online are doing more of the same, as the baby mama of the “Thotiana” rapper has announced some more news. Early this morning, she sent out a tweet revealing that she has officially altered the name of her son, Chrisean Jr. If you have been voluntarily keeping up with everything she’s been up to/gone through, you may remember that she was wanting to change it since last September.

At the time of birth, his name was Chrisean Malone Jr. However, she decided that it had to be something different. She was pushing for Jonathan Jamall Porter Jr. because, “He has two sons but he don’t got a junior yet I don’t like it. I don’t like it like that”, Rock said. Now, things are official, but her baby boy’s name is not Jonathan. Instead, she decided to keep Chrisean, but now his middle name is Jesus, and his last is Porter.

“Chrisean Jesus Porter is his name it isn’t Jr any more just letting y’all know thanks”, she sent to X. Overall, the internet doesn’t really see this as much of change. “We were calling him Jr. because his name is CHRISEANNNNNNN bird brain smh”, one Hollwood Unlocked IG commenter says. “Hes still technically a jr 😭 just SLOWWW”, another adds. It’s been said before, but everyone seems to be done with Chrisean in every way.

What are your thoughts on Chrisean Rock changing Chrisean Jr.’s name to Chrisean Jesus Porter? Do you think the reactions/criticisms from the internet are valid or unfair? What do you foresee happening with the baby mama of Blueface going forward? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Australian Influencer Draws Bianca Censori Comparisons After Wearing Indecent Dress To Friend’s Wedding

by

Ever since pairing up with Kanye West, Bianca Censori has been popping up in a lot more headlines. Most of that has to do with her outfit choices. Almost every day it feels like she ups the ante in what is considered actual clothing. Some of that may be influenced by her partner, but still, they can get flat out obscene regardless. Lately, she’s been toning it down, but people are still going to associate her with risqué get-ups no matter how long she continues to be more conservative. In fact, the internet is still coupling her with that stigma, although this time it’s being applied to someone else.

According to TMZ, a fellow Aussie whose name is Tahlia Skaines, is drawing Bianca Censori comparisons for her inappropriate attire. Wearing barely anything in public is obviously taboo, but what’s arguably even more so is that Tahlia did so at a friend’s wedding. In the collage the 29-year-old influencer is showing lots of cleavage and stomach, and in a white dress no less. “A beautiful day celebrating love 🕊”, Tahlia captioned the post to IG.

Overall, this choice has to led a lot of debate online and in her comments section. Some adore the look with one user saying, “Here she is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 main character always”. However, there’s an angry mob with pitchforks and torches ripping into Tahlia for drawing attention away from the bride and groom. “Seriously? Even if there isn’t a dress code did you forget that this day isn’t about you? You wore a nearly identical dress to the bride… have just a shred of decency and decorum ffs.” At this time, it’s unknown if Tahlia was given the green light to wear something like this. So, right now, most are going to assume the worst as long as she remains silent about it.

What are your thoughts on Australian model Tahlia Skaines wearing a Bianca Censori-esque dress to a friend’s wedding? Is this comparison a reach or accurate? Do you think she was allowed to wear that or was she wanting to draw attention to herself in your eyes? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Big Sean Receives Unfortunate Final Sales Results For “Better Me Than You”

by

There was a lot of potential for Better Me Than You, the sixth studio album from Big Sean. For the most part, the lead singles were extremely promising to very good. Then, when you get into the themes and ideas promised, they are mature, fairly thought-provoking, and motivating. Furthermore, the features list had a lot to offer. Gunna, Charlie Wilson, Thundercat, Kodak Black, Bryson Tiller, and The Alchemist are just a few that make a pretty star-studded cast. On the surface, there’s a lot to like. However, when you get into the album and perhaps listen to it a couple of times, you probably caught some inconsistencies.

For us, those included too many instances of Sean sounding half asleep on the mic. Also, with the tracklist sitting at 21 songs, there was too much fluff and some of them sounded out of place. The Cash Cobain song was the biggest offender of this. We feel these are the reasons why Big Sean was only able to sell 22,000 copies (courtesy of DJ Akademiks) of his newest effort in its first week. Also not helping him was the fact that he was pretty inactive after the release of Detroit 2. Even though he’s major artist of the 2010s, he doesn’t have the same luxury of a Travis Scott to wait that long in between releases.

Haters Of Big Sean Don’t Want To Hear Anymore Big Three Talk

The final results were pretty on par with the 24,000 units prediction, and with this being official, this is now his lowest first week of his career. Prior, Sean had never debuted lower than three on the charts. Now, he will be lucky to be in the top 20-25. Throughout his time in the genre, there have been a lot of people that are highly critical of the Detroit MC. Now, with these numbers confirmed, they are coming out in droves. “I don’t wanna hear no more talk from him about “Big 3” or anything among those lines”, one X user states. “Damn what’s that upcoming j cole album called? Yeah this is that”, another jokes. Sean has been teasing a couple of other tapes recently, so he’s got more chances to reassert himself.

What are your thoughts on Big Sean only moving 22,000 copies of Better Me Than You in its first week? What do you think was the biggest reason for this precipitous fall-off from past releases? Is Sean out of his prime, or will this turn out to be a fluke? 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 Big Sean. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Drake Fans Label J Cole A Traitor Over ASAP Rocky Collab

by

The great rap beef of 2024 continues, as two MCs previously from opposing sides have now complicated the situation for Drake fans. Moreover, A$AP Rocky tapped J Cole for “Ruby Rosary,” a new Alchemist-produced single from his upcoming album Don’t Be Dumb. Thanks to the Harlem creative’s possible shots at the 6ix God, a lot of OVO Stans are not happy with the Dreamville boss clearing a collaboration with one of Drizzy’s many opponents this year. Earlier this year, just days after bowing out of the battle, Cole also appeared on Future and Metro Boomin’s WE STILL DON’T TRUST YOU.

As such, a lot of people are looking at J. Cole sideways, wondering why he would work with these people and whether or not he feels differently about Drake now. After all, it was probably their “First Person Shooter” collaboration that set a lot of this beef in motion, at least on Kendrick Lamar’s end. But the most likely scenario is that despite Rocky’s disses towards The Boy, Cole probably has the same love for everyone involved. He’s never been one to be overtly confrontational beyond being competitive, and we can’t imagine that he would let loyalties determine who he will make art with.

ASAP Rocky & J Cole’s “Ruby Rosary”: Stream

Sure, this doesn’t explain everything about these lyricists’ roles in all this, but we doubt that J. Cole is really “picking a side” here. Also, we have to consider that Drake recently reminisced on this friendship with Cole via his “100 GIGS” content drop, sharing a classic video of them buying Born Sinner CDs upon its release at a Best Buy. However, we don’t know if this nostalgia is for a broken friendship or just for simpler times, so maybe it doesn’t affirm their bond in the way we might assume. Regardless, check out more reactions to “Ruby Rosary” and this perceived betrayal down below.

OVO Fans And Other Listeners React To “Ruby Rosary”

Meanwhile, as Drake seeks a “Game 2,” perhaps he will more directly attack A$AP Rocky, J Cole, Future, and his other opps. We might even see him to at Kendrick Lamar again, but that’s still a mystery and an unlikely scenario until proven otherwise. “No Face” suggests that the Toronto superstar will pick the former approach against his former colleagues. Maybe then Cole will fully commit to battling his other “Big Three” partner or walk away from another chance to play in the mud.

Baby Tate Claims She Was “Pushed To The F***ing Concrete” By Security Guard

by

Baby Tate is one of the female femcees that has both a fun and edgy personality. It translates into her music as well, and its why she’s so intriguing as an artist. However, the Georgia multi-hyphenate is dropping her bubbly side at this moment because she’s currently infuriated. According to theJasmineBrand, the “Surround Sound” guest star is claiming that she was physical assaulted in Atlanta over the weekend. Tate and her friends were enjoying their night out at El Malo, a local cocktail lounge. During her retelling of the evening’s events, Tate says that one security guard was constantly hovering around her group.

After being fed up with it, Baby Tate decided to ask the man why he was targeting her party. That seems to be when things escalated. As the 28-year-old describes it, “[The security guard] PUSHED ME TO THE F***ING CONCRETE when I did nothing to him but ask why he was talking to me crazy. It’s actually giving LAW SUIT. No funny s***”.

Tons of fans were quick to show her support and help her in any way they could. Some were suggesting she contact authorities to help. However, due to Baby Tate leaving the scene of the alleged crime, they were not able to assist the rapper. She did add that the guard continued to pursue her and her group even off the premises of El Malo and that’s why she got as far away as possible. More may come from this, so be to stick with us for more.

What are your thoughts on Baby Tate’s claims about a security guard physically assaulting her and shoving her to the ground? Do you think El Malo will speak out soon? Should the rapper file a lawsuit? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Joe Budden Isn’t Buying Travis Scott’s “DAYS BEFORE RODEO” Sales Predictions One Bit

by

It’s safe to say that Travis Scott made a lot of his fans’ dreams come true a couple of weeks ago. After over a decade of waiting and praying, the Houston artist put DAYS BEFORE RODEO onto streaming services. Additionally, physical copy enthusiasts are jumping for joy because you are able to buy either it on vinyl or on CD format. Furthermore, it wouldn’t be a Travis Scott roll out if there weren’t any bundles. La Flame dropped quite a few of them where you could grab a t-shirt or a sweatshirt. Lastly, he sent fans into a frenzy by releasing five separate deluxe options, in addition to live and chopped ‘n screwed renditions.

With so many ways of packaging the project and do to it being a fan-favorite tape, DAYS BEFORE RODEO is looking to have the biggest first week for any rap album this year. We won’t be sure on what that number is until tomorrow, but before it was slated to move around 217,000 copies with over 80 percent of them being physical sales. With all of this in mind, it’s clear that Scott has been dominating hip-hop fans’ attention over these last 14 days or so. He’s even taking numbers away from some pretty notable names like YG and Cash Cobain and will most likely do the same to Destroy Lonely and Big Sean.

Fans Are Split On Joe Budden’s Theories About Travis Scott

However, even with Travis Scott having massive pull, Joe Budden is not accepting that these numbers are real. In the most recent episode of his podcast, him and the panel discussed this and how a tech company is inflating them. You can look at his skepticism in two ways. Firstly, he could be just flat out hating on Scott and discrediting how massive of an artist he is. Or he knows something that we don’t and he’s exposing people. Fans are shockingly split on this, with some pulling up the streaming stats to help make Joe’s point. Others feel that he doesn’t understand the project’s and the artist’s overall magnitude. Travis Scott rarely takes aim at anyone, but will he this time?

What are your thoughts on Joe Budden discounting that the sales forecast for Travis Scott’s DAYS BEFORE RODEO is accurate? Is the podcaster just hating or does he make a valid argument? Were you someone who purchased the project in any way? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Sexyy Red Shows Off The Goods While Posing With A Corvette In Latest Thirst Trap

by

Sexyy Red is never one to shy away from being out there. Throughout her burgeoning rap career, she has built her brand off being “ratchet” and unapologetically herself. To no surprise, her personality and music have been polarizing from almost the very beginning. However, if you are one of those people who want her to change, just know that’s not going to happen. The St. Louis, Missouri MC has remained quite forthright when it comes to how she wants to present herself, which is to be loose and rowdy. That is quite evident in these newest thirst trap attempts from Sexyy Red and fans seem to be more than okay with it.

“Good googly moogly 😳”, one user writes with disbelief. “Sis is Actually a Baddie frfr”, another adds. Others were getting a little raunchier with their support of Sexyy Red. One assumed male follower appears to finally buy into the hype, “I used to say I’ll never hit but now I change my mind”. “Im tryna sn!ff it through the screen why is it not working”, someone else boldly types.

It appears that based on these reactions, Sexyy Red might need to post more collages like this if this is what she’s aiming for. That would mean extremely tiny jean booty shorts and a lacey pink bra. However, Red wants everyone to know she’s a dual threat because her wealth is prominently on display too. While posing in multiple ways, she’s sitting on her white Corvette while holding fat stacks of cash. Sexyy Red is certainly feeding fans and not just with music.
