Drake Films Music Video In Toronto On Top Of Scotiabank Arena: Watch

by

Drake’s new album For All The Dogs has 23 tracks, and with such variety, quantity, and range, the possibilities for music videos are almost endless. Moreover, it seems like he might be contributing another one to that conversation soon. We already have visuals for the 6 God’s “Another Late Night” with Lil Yachty, plus his “8AM In Charlotte” visuals, too. However, given what fans recently spotted atop the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, a new music video shoot might be for an album cut or perhaps something else entirely. After all, he’s no stranger to giving fans surprises, even if he just went through a wild album rollout for his new studio effort.

Furthermore, this is the same arena that hosted the Toronto tour stops for Aubrey Graham’s 21 S*vage-assisted trek, It’s All A Blur. In fact, the arena became October’s Very Own Arena for those two concerts, so perhaps this is the announcement of a new partnership with them. Of course, that’s just filling in theories if this music video shoot isn’t the expected outcome, which is a song from For All The Dogs. As Drake raps for the camera on the arena’s roof in the clip below, you can almost hear OVO die-hards trying to piece together what song it is from just his movements.

Drake Spotted At A Music Video Shoot: Watch

In addition, there’s a perfect record-breaking and chart-topping track from the new album that is primed for the music video treatment. Drake’s J. Cole collab “First Person Shooter” became the Dreamville boss’ first number one hit ever. Not only that, but it tied Drizzy and Michael Jackson for the most number one hits ever from a male solo artist. Technically, though, the Toronto MC actually beat the King of Pop, as Billboard doesn’t count his Travis Scott team-up “SICKO MODE.”

Alas, with no J. Cole in sight in this clip, that outcome seems unlikely. The question, then, is what other songs could fit this atmosphere at Scotiabank Arena and warrant a visual representation. Let us know what your guesses are for that in the comments below. Also, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Drake.

King Harris Claims He Grew Up With His Grandma During “T.I. & Tiny” Filming

by

King Harris was born into a life of fame and success as the son of T.I. and Tiny, and had cameras on him quick through their reality TV show T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle. However, apparently what we saw on television is very different to what he actually went through, showing that sometimes there’s more to folks than meets the eye. Moreover, the aspiring rapper recently sat down for an interview with Funny Marco, on which he revealed what his living situation was actually like during the filming of that show. Despite the life they released into the world, he claims things were not as tight as they seemed.

“What do you feel that they got on you that they shouldn’t have on you? ‘Cause I feel like [when] you grow up, it’s like you can’t be you.” the host asked the 19-year-old. “Yeah, man, it’s a lot about that TV show, man, that [confuses] people,” King Harris remarked. “Because I live with my grandma. You know, we’ll go to the house on, like, the weekend. They’ll say ‘Hey, we shooting today. We need y’all at the house.’ They go get me from my grandma’s house. Right after we done, when the cameras go off, I’m right back to my grandma’s house, yeah.”

A post shared by The Neighborhood Talk (@theneighborhoodtalk)

With these new claims in mind, it certainly paints an interesting dynamic in the family. Of course, we also have to keep in mind that- according to fans correcting this on social media- they actually did mention this in The Family Hustle at some point. As such, it’s tough to say whether this is a point of frustration for King Harris, a personal choice, or something else entirely. Fortunately, it seems like from this testimony, this isn’t a resented set-up.

Meanwhile, we’re sure that he would much rather speak on this than continue to face backlash and criticism online. The most recent example of this is when the reality star and MC tried to have a homeless man do the Paqui One Chip Challenge. Antics like that will probably continue, and now we have a different context for who’s the one responding to it at home. For more news and the latest updates on King Harris, come back to HNHH.

Blueface & Chrisean Rock Spotted Filming A Music Video

by

To absolutely no one’s surprise, it looks like Blueface and Chrisean Rock are already patching things up between them. Moreover, the two fought a lot online over their newborn son Chrisean Jr.’s care, the home he’d live in, and their parenting skills. However, after a recent visit saw the rapper cuddled up with his kid, it seems like things are good between them… for now. What’s more is that they returned to business and career collaborations quite quickly as well, pulling up to the studio together. During that session, the “BDD” MC signed the Baddies star to his MILF Music label, or at least said so on a piece of paper.

Furthermore, new footage implies that they quickly worked on Chrisean Rock’s debut release. Fans spotted her and Blueface apparently filming a music video together, and they even took some time to interact with onlookers. According to online sources and eyewitnesses, this went down last night (Saturday, September 16), and there’s no telling when this will come out- if ever. Regardless, this newfound amicable state between them is ruffling some feathers in Blue’s personal life.

Chrisean Rock & Blueface Are Cooking Something Up

For example, Jaidyn Alexis wasn’t happy at all with this news of Blueface and Chrisean Rock rekindling… something. After all, calling any of these bonds a “romantic relationship” might just get invalidated within three days with another feud. It even caused the fellow (well, now former) MILF Music signee to go on a Twitter rant against the two. In it, she called the 26-year-old a “narcissist” and talked about how he fooled everyone by sticking by Alexis’ side. Elsewhere, Blue actually went a little more in-depth when it comes to what he feels went down with his first baby mama.

“When I first started rappin Jaidyn didn’t support me or my music,” he wrote on Twitter “That’s [why] I never really took her serious when I got on. One day I was [on my way] to the studio [and] and told me I would never be Nipsey or P. Diddy. It was motivating to prove her wrong, that’s the reason I ain’t marry her.” For more news and the latest updates on Blueface and Chrisean Rock, stay posted on HNHH.

Lil Meech Says They’ve Completed Filming Season 3 Of “BMF”

by

Lil Meech took to social media recently to share that the cast has completed filming the third season of BMF. The drama series, created by Randy Huggins, stars Lil Meech, Da’Vinchi, Myles Truitt, Michole Briana White, and more. In a new clip, Lil Meech is seen walking “in the middle of nowhere,” telling fans that they’re now “three seasons in.”

The actor also recently called out some cast members of another drama series, Power. He mentioned Gianni Paolo and Michael Rainey Jr. specifically in a recent Instagram post. He’s seen flexing on the cast while on a private jet with his BMF crew. He has has additionally made headlines as of late for his relationship with R&B singer Summer Walker. The two confirmed they were official earlier this year, and have been magnets for drama ever since.

BMF Season 3

Most recently, Lil Meech was accused of cheating on Walker after a woman posted a photo wearing his chain. He denies the allegations. Walker later posted screenshots of DMs between her and the woman, who claimed she didn’t even know the rapper. Lil Meech then claimed that his bodyguard had given the woman his chain and was later fired for it. After the exchange turned sour, the woman shared her own DMs with Walker’s boyfriend. In the screenshots, he appears to ask her to clarify the rumors in exchange for money.

After comedian Jess Hilarious weighed in on the drama, the couple clapped back. She had claimed to believe that he was cheating on Walker, going so far as to call him musty. Lil Meech later shared DMs she had sent to him, claiming she was shooting her shot. Walker also came for the comedian, calling her “ugly” and “weird.” Despite the drama, the couple showed off some incredible looks at the 2023 BET Awards last weekend. The two of them posed for several hands-on photos together, proving haters wrong.

Travis Scott Shoots Music Video At Nice Stadium In France: Watch

by

It’s been a long time in the making, but Travis Scott’s UTOPIA is finally seeing the light of day. The Houston native began teasing his follow-up to Astroworld in 2021. Unfortunately, the tragedy that unfolded at his annual festival that year catapulted him out of the spotlight for some time. Scott has since been able to successfully rehabilitate his image, going on to play substantial stadium shows and headline at Rolling Loud Thailand.

More recently, the father of two’s efforts appears to be laser-focused on UTOPIA. He’s taking no shortage of measures to protect and promote his album. He was spotted at Cannes Film Festival last week, where his luggage made headlines along with an identical one carried by The Weeknd. Scott has yet to confirm a tracklist or any features on the project. Still, seeing as he and the Canadian have collaborated before, we wouldn’t be surprised to hear his vocals shine alongside the Rodeo rapper’s when the album finally drops.

Travis Scott Spotted Filming Something in France

Travis was also shooting some footage for what appears to be a music video while in Europe. He and his crew hit up Nice Stadium for a busy day of filming. A few small clips were captured by bystanders and shared on social media. In one, Scott calmly sits on top of a car, several motorbikes revving their engines in front of him. It remains unclear what song the visual is set to accompany, but the 31-year-old’s fans are excited to see what he’s got in store regardless.

The “CAN’T SAY” artist recently explained to fans what the title of his project means to him. “Utopia is something that people feel is so far-fetched and out of reach, some perfect state of mind,” he told Pin-Up Magazine last week. “But you create it yourself. There are people who achieve utopia every day. They may not be the richest people with the dopest cribs, but it’s a utopia wherever they are, and that’s the most you can have.” Do you think that UTOPIA will be Travis Scott’s best album to date? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Will Smith And Martin Lawrence Seen Filming “Bad Boys 4” In Atlanta

by

Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are currently hard at work on a new movie together. They were seen on set shooting for the highly anticipated Bad Boys 4 in Atlanta. In January, the two actors delighted fans by announcing the production of the fourth installment of the Bad Boys franchise. They shared an exciting Instagram video captioned “IT’S ABOUT THAT TIME!” Then, in April, Smith and Lawrence made a special video appearance at CinemaCon. There, they explained their absence from the Las Vegas event.

They humorously revealed that they were unable to attend because they were already deeply immersed in the filming of the sequel. At the time, it had been underway for four weeks. In a lighthearted remark, Lawrence quipped, “We’re not sorry we couldn’t be there.” Smith added, “We’re glad we’re not there because we’re here, and they’re paying us to be here.” Both actors expressed their genuine enthusiasm and excitement for Bad Boys 4, describing themselves as “hyped” about the project.

Looking Back At The “Bad Boys” Legacy

The dynamic duo experienced great success at the box office when they joined forces once again for the third installment of the Bad Boys series, titled Bad Boys for Life, in 2020. It was an impressive reunion, taking place 25 years after the release of the original film. During a summer interview with Ebony magazine, Martin Lawrence expressed his optimism about the possibility of another Bad Boys sequel. The actor hinted at having at least one more installment in the pipeline.

Reflecting on the impact of the first film, Lawrence emphasized the significance of their collaboration and their ability to attract audiences and generate substantial revenue. He highlighted the groundbreaking achievement of two black sitcom stars proving their box office prowess. Furthermore, the actor shared his personal perspective on his career. He explained that while he didn’t pursue higher education, his time in television served as a valuable learning experience. For him, transitioning to the world of movies felt like a different kind of accomplishment, akin to graduating from college.

The Weeknd & Jenna Ortega Wrap Filming On Forthcoming Movie: Report

by

It’s been a busy few months for The Weeknd, or Abel Tesfaye, as prefers to go by these days. At this time, the Canadian is preparing for the highly anticipated premiere of his HBO series, The Idol, in which he stars alongside Lily-Rose Depp. Telling the story of a young pop star (played by the model) influenced to lean into her wild side by a manipulative guru (portrayed by the singer), the controversial, super raunchy series has already faced criticism from Rolling Stone. Still, that’s not stopping Tesfaye from moving forward with confidence.

Aside from that project, the “Starboy” hitmaker has also been venturing further into the world of film. After pleasing fans with his appearance in the Safdie brother’s Uncut Gems alongside Adam Sandler and Julia Fox, he co-wrote the script for another movie which he’s also producing and starring in. The news first broke at the end of February, at which time Jenna Ortega (Wednesday) and Barry Keoghan (The Banshees of Inisherin) were announced as co-stars.

The Weeknd is Keeping Busy

Penning the script alongside Tesfaye were Reza Fahim, Kevin Turen, and Harrison Kreiss. Updates surrounding the project have been minimal since the first announcement, however, on Monday (May 15), it was reported that the shooting has already wrapped on the untitled film. Further updates, such as storylines and a release date still remain unknown but are sure to arrive online in the coming weeks as post-production unfolds.

It’s been a huge few years for 20-year-old Jenna Ortega, who not only captivated audiences with her work in Netflix’s You and Wednesday but also made waves as a new face in the Scream franchise. Apart from those roles, you may also recognize her from X, The Fallout, or Jane the Virgin. The budding starlet previously spoke about her experience working with Tesfaye in March, calling him “genuinely such a sweetheart,” as ET Canada reports. What do you think the plot of The Weeknd’s upcoming movie will be about? Leave your theories in the comments, and tap back in with HNHH later for more pop culture news updates.

Ice Spice Seen Filming Mystery Project At McDonald’s In New York: Watch

by

Her discography is still relatively small, having only released her debut EP, Like..? a few months ago. Regardless, Ice Spice is clearly one of the biggest names in female rap right now. For instance, she’s already collaborated with the likes of Lil Tjay and Nicki Minaj. Less than a year after she initially blew up, the 23-year-old has consistently beat the “one-hit wonder” allegation attached to her following the arrival of “Munch (Feelin’ U),” and it doesn’t look as though she plans to stop anytime soon.

Her latest musical release came in the form of the “Princess Diana (Remix)” with the Queen of Rap last month. Since then, we’ve also heard some throwaway titles, such as “Like,” surface online, as well as Spice’s promise of her first album dropping later in 2023. She’s mostly kept busy with public appearances at the Met Gala and in Italy as of late. However, fans also spotted the lyricist out and about in New York City recently. At the time, she appeared to be filming something for an upcoming mystery project.

Ice Spice Takes Over NYC

In one clip shared on TikTok, Spice stands in the middle of a lush, green park. Cameras – both at the hands of professionals and fans – are all around her. She appears calm while standing in the midst of chaos, carrying a small fuzzy purse and wearing pants that use a trompe l’oeil effect to accentuate her famously curvy figure. In another video that’s circulating, the Bronx Baddie makes an appearance at a McDonald’s in Fordham. There, she seemingly takes direction from a production team member while sipping on a small drink.

While some in the replies are expressing disappointment in the rap diva’s style choices, others are curious to find out the details of what she’s been so hard at work on in NYC. Are you excited to see what Isis Gaston has in store for the Spice Cabinet next? Let us know in the comments, and tap back in with HNHH later for more pop culture/hip-hop news updates.

6ix9ine Reveals How He Filmed “WAPAE” Music Video

by

6ix9ine is making a strong and surprising return to music shortly after his viral gym beatdown. Moreover, he recently released a couple of music videos filmed in various locations, traveling down to Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Uganda. His video for his latest single “WAPAE” featured a lot of people in Ugandan communities in particular, and he recently shared some behind-the-scenes footage of such on Instagram. In the clips, he films a crowd of kids dancing, greets everyone, and intermittently chronicles his process. It might not be the most exciting thing in the world, but it’s always interesting to see the video edits and extra details behind a new song or visual clip.

“SMALL RECAP of how I Filmed & Edited the whole #wapae video all on a iPhone ALL in 1 day,” 6ix9ine captioned his post. “To all the artist in the world don’t let nothing stop you from doing what you love. It’s right there just do it. The only person who’s stopping you and is in your way it’s you. Thank you so much to the hyper kids in Uganda for showing me love and allowing me to come to there home. I love you Uganda.”

6ix9ine Shows Behind The Scenes Footage From “WAPAE” Music Video

Despite some haters jumping down the song’s throat, 6ix9ine actually found a lot of success in a short amount of time. “Wow… I just want to say thank you,” the 26-year-old wrote in an appreciative post. “1,300,000 views & #4 already trending in the world in 3 hours. I decided to jump into the Latin market because 1. I am of Latin [descent] & 2. Not the main reason but I did sign a 3,000,000 dollar deal in 2020 for a Latin album that I never delivered. But I never expected to receive the support that you guys have given me. I want to say thank you & I love you.”

Meanwhile, 6ix9ine made big moves after reflecting on how his attack showed people’s true colors. “I think it was cowardly. I think it was opportunistic, but again I’m not mad because I know in the streets there are no rules. I’m at a loss for words because they saw an opportunity and they took it. I think life just keeps going. I can capitalize off of anything. I’m that talented, I don’t need to get beat up to sell a record.” Regardless of your take, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on 6ix9ine.

FKA Twigs & Shia LaBeouf’s Trial Facing Delays Due To Hectic Work Schedules

by

Unfortunately for FKA Twigs, her love life has frequently become tabloid fodder over the years. She previously dated Twilight star Robert Pattinson. Their relationship, unfortunately, fell apart partially due to the racism she endured at the hands of the franchise’s fans. Aside from that, the time she spent romancing former child star Shia LaBeouf has also caught the public’s eye.

The pair first met in 2018 on the set of Honey Boy and found themselves falling for one another quickly. According to Femstella, the film’s creator “dramatically professed his love” just a week or two into dating. By October of that year, LaBeouf convinced Twigs to join him at his home in Los Angeles. This is when their union became abusive in nature.

Court documents allege that the Disney alumn would berate and verbally assault the English actress for hours at a time. He also reportedly trapped her in their bedroom for lengthy periods. At that time he was suffering from delusions that gang members would break into their home. LaBeouf apparently slept with a rifle by the couple’s bedside. He also forced Twigs to watch documentaries specifically focusing on murdered women.

By November 2018, the Caprisongs vocalist began her plan to escape, though in February 2019 she woke up to find her partner “violently squeezing her body and arms.” Around the same time, the 35-year-old was knowingly infected with an STD by the Holes actor, who admitted to being diagnosed a year earlier and attempting to hide his flare-ups from her. In the months after this, they finally went their separate ways, and by December 2020, Twigs filed a lawsuit.

The “killer” songstress is suing LaBeouf for sexual battery, battery assault, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and gross negligence. As Radar Online notes, their trial was due to begin on April 17th, though it’s now facing delays until much later this year. Most likely, we’ll see the former couple in court on November 1st or December 6th.

Lawyers for both parties provided an update to the court earlier this week. Twigs’ states that she lives out of the country and is currently “working on entertainment projects.” For her ex, the story is mostly the same as he’s been busy filming Francis Ford Coppola’s $100M epic, Megalopolis. The actor has been spotted in various feminine costumes as of late, including gold sky-high heels and sheer white dresses.

At this time, a judge has yet to sign off on the trial’s postponement, but because neither star has sat for a deposition, it’s likely the motion will be approved. While LaBeouf is hard at work on his potential industry comeback, Twigs is eagerly awaiting The Crow reboot, which finds her starring opposite Bill Skarsgård. Read all about the role she plays in that here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.
