Kendrick Lamar Fans Theorize That He May Have Rapped From Drake’s POV On “6:16 In LA”

by

The rap beef that keeps on giving has both Kendrick Lamar and Drake fans reaching, denying, speculating, and continuing to decide on who won this exchange. However, many recent interpretations and conversations around K.Dot’s “6:16 In LA” diss against Drizzy are more concerned with admiration and creativity rather than victory… if a lick of them are true, that is. Moreover, spurred by a recent YouTube video from What’s The Dirt? about the track, many fans are currently running with a theory that the first part of this song (before Kendrick mentions DJ Akademiks) is actually a verse from Drake’s perspective.

First, a few opening arguments and allegations: to folks’ knowledge, Kendrick Lamar doesn’t own a Rolls Royce or a yacht. Drake does, yet Kendrick raps having or dismissing these on “6:16 In LA” in its opening moments. He also talks about tatted passports and asking where he’s from, whereas on “Meet The Grahams” he says that Aubrey goes to Turks to pop percs and has a lot of identity issues. Still, the mention of Estelle (presumably a family member of the Compton lyricist’s that he also mentioned on Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers) and some other lines that could equally apply to Kendrick (“Who am I if I don’t go to war?“) do serve as counter-arguments against this theory.

Kendrick Lamar Fans Speculate On “6:16 In LA”

As such, the more likely scenario is that some elements of “6:16 In LA” are up for interpretation, and that Kendrick Lamar is drawing parallels between him and Drake and explaining how their choices concerning these comparisons are what make them different from one another. Overall, it seems like a bit of a reach, but the What’s The Dirt? video talks about a whole lot more than that. It’s definitely an interesting possibility to consider, and one that either provides more empathy for the 6ix God on Mr. Morale’s behalf or talks about Kendrick’s own conflicted feelings in this battle. At the end of the day, it’s just a theory.

Meanwhile, folks continue to debate over who’s the better rapper, and Kendrick Lamar and Drake have a lot of eyes on their next moves. “The Pop Out” happened, the Camila Cabello collabs are out, and we as fans are starting to move away from the obsession over the outcome. Now, we could go back and reevaluate the disses from a more appreciative and calm lens. Lord knows we needed some clarity and rest after this firestorm… but we’ll happily stay amid the flames if it musical discussion is to follow.

Kanye West Fans Left Stunned After Multiple Tracks Release To His YouTube Account Inexplicably

by

Kanye West is always dealing with some sort of issue, regardless of if it was caused by him or someone else. Currently, his accuser and former Yeezy employee, Lauren Pisciotta, is looking to sue the controversial mogul for sexual assault/harassment. Currently, no one really knows who is at fault here, as Ye has recently announced that he is suing Lauren back. He and his legal claim she was trying to persuade him to commit sexual acts, while also blackmailing him for millions. So much is still to come of that situation, so be sure to stay locked in with us. Right now, though, Kanye West has to deal with a potential hacker unloading multiple songs on his YouTube.

This all went down just moments ago, as it appears that 13 total tracks were leaked on to the official page of Mr. West. The capsule includes what could be unfinished demos and older sounding tracks. Additionally, they could be Donda leftovers, due to the all-black cover art on each song. Each one was released separately and not as a project. Or, since we are in the middle of the VULTURES era, these could be throwaways, too.

Playboi Carti “Antagonist” Tour Allegedly Postponed Over Homixide Gang Legal Battle

by

Fans are speculating that the recent postponement of Playboi Carti’s Antagonist Tour due to the legal battle that Homixide Gang is involved in due to jumping Summrs at a concert late last year. With HG tied up in a dispute with Live Nation, the tour is now in limbo. However, none of this is substantiated by official sources and appears to come from Playboi Carti’s official fan Discord server.

Homixide Gang jumped Summrs at BoxFest back in November 2023. A video, shot by an audience member, shows a large brawl occurring on stage in the middle of the show. It’s unclear what caused the altercation. However, Reddit users claim to have seen a second video showing members of the rap group rushing the stage. Summrs’ first track after the incident, “Check Me Out”, appeared to include several references to both the incident and other allegations against the group. “I DM one these n-gga’s hoes, I’m tryna see if the b-tch go” has been taken as a shot at the grooming allegations against the group. Furthermore, several bars directly reference the jumping and the subsequent threats Summrs made in return.

Playboi Carti Posts Up On IG

Meanwhile, Benji Blue Bills didn’t appreciate someone starting up Playboi Carti‘s new diss track about him. “Turn that sh-t off,” Benji could be heard yelling as he stormed out of the studio he was working in. Of course, the pair have been beefing for a while now. However, Benji’s reaction feels a little dramatic given he dropped an entire response to Carti’s “I’m looking for Benji” diss. What did you think of the diss? Let us know in the comments.

However, Carti appeared unbothered by the drama as he dropped a new selfie on Instagram. Many fans were wowed by the image, with several going as far as to ask for Carti’s skincare routine. Elsewhere, Carti is still building the hype surrounding his upcoming album, although details about the project remain scarce.

Offset Cancels On Kai Cenat, Fans Theorize Why

by

Offset and Kai Cenat seemed to be the best of friends just last month. As you may recall, the two had a 24-hour stream together. Overall, this was part of Set’s Set It Off album promo. Many claimed that this was an amazing rollout for his project. However, the album came out and didn’t get that much staying power. Ultimately, it was a disappointing showing that had a lot of people scratching their heads. The music was solid, but the impact wasn’t as impressive as the rollout itself.

This week, Offset was supposed to be on Kai Cenat’s new 24-7 jail stream. The stream is to last a total of seven days and boast a plethora of guests. For instance, we have already seen Druski, Chrisean Rock, and NLE Choppa. Unfortunately, as Kai Cenat revealed a couple of days ago, Offset canceled on him at the very last minute. It was a surprising development, however, it was one that Cenat needed to move on from. After all, he had viewers to entertain no matter what.

Kai Cenat Speaks On Offset Situation

As you can imagine, all of this led to some elaborate theories as to why Offset would have canceled. In fact, there were three theories, in particular. Firstly, some thought that he was just doing this because FAMU Homecoming was at the same time, and he had to commit to that. Secondly, some said it is because Offset has been to jail and that he didn’t want to relive such an experience. Lastly, but most salaciously, people felt like it all had to do with Kai Cenat having a middle-of-the-road opinion on his album. If you watched Kai react to Set It Off, you know that he found a few of the tracks to be “mid.”

Theories Pour In

For now, we will be left in the lurch on what truly happened. However, no matter what happens, you can be sure that fans will have some sort of theory about it. Let us know what you think about all of this, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will always be sure to keep you informed.

Does The 1920 World Series Hold The Answer To Logan Roy’s Successor?

by

HBO’s boardroom thriller Succession concludes on May 28. After four seasons and hundreds of twists, turns, and backstabbings, we finally get an answer to the question “Who will succeed Logan Roy?” It’s a question that was put sharply into focus following Logan’s death earlier in the season.

There are three primary candidates to finally and permanently take over at Waystar Royco from the late Logan Roy. You have Kendall Roy, Logan’s son and his presumptive successor for most of the show. Furthermore, Kendall has been running the company since his father’s death. However, there is also youngest son Roman who has been gunning for his brother’s gig after the collapse of CEBros. Finally, there is Shiv, Logan’s daughter and one-time preferred choice for the role. She is currently playing the long game, budding up with Swedish tech magnate and potential new Waystar Royco owner, Lukas Matsson. But a baby name website might have solved the show’s highly-anticipated finale.

Nameberry Reveals Sports Reference As Solution

Do the names on Succession reveal the show’s ending? #succession #hbomax #tomwambsgans #billwambsganss #shivroy #successionhbo #successiontok #successionfinale #babynames #nameberry

♬ Epic Inspiration – DM Production

In a TikTok video, the editor-in-chief of Nameberry broke down a fascinating baseball reference that has been sat in plain sight for the entirety of the show. Tom Wambsgans is Shiv’s husband, baby daddy, and recurring villain. He has spent the show working his way up the corporate ladder at Waystar Royco and is seen as the “anti-nepo baby” option by the company’s old guard.

Wambsgans, as Nameberry explains, is a very rare and somewhat unique German surname. The best-known example of the name is Bill Wambsganss, a second baseman who played in the MLB between 1914 and 1926. However, this is where things get interesting. Wambsganss is not especially notable, except for his unassisted triple play in the 1920 World Series. To put it another way, a man named Wambsgans took out three people in the season finale. It’s an intriguing theory to be sure and one of many currently floating around. Meanwhile, sportsbooks currently have Shiv as the odds-on favorite to take over the company. What do you think about this theory – is Wambsgans a nod to the successor? Or is this simply a red herring to stir up a little drama?
