Nicki Minaj Covers American Vogue For The First Time Alongside Her Son

by

Nicki Minaj may be the most iconic female rapper of all time. You can attribute that to a lot of different things she has accomplished throughout her storied career. However, there was one thing missing from her resume. That would be covering the American Vogue Cover. Yes, you heard that right. One of the most influential artists in the genre has never graced one of the most well-known magazines. Nicki herself expressed her frustrations about this about a year ago with Joe Budden. Uptown wrote a piece about this in March and the Queen firmly stated her position on the matter.

“And by the way let me make sure I say this because you know how they like to twist my words, the same way I feel I should have already been on the cover of American Vogue, so should Lil’ Kim, if we being all the way one thousand.” She continues, “If this is what your magazine represents, “influence.” … If we being honest because every single any female rapper when we, when myself or Lil’ Kim goes on the internet, every day we see our influence. … So I’m not gonna say it’s about me only, right, and not give that woman her just due about what she did.”

Well, some reconciling must have taken place, because here we are and Nicki is the main focus of the December issue. In addition to that, her son, who we still do not know the name of, also is a part of the photoshoot. Papa Bear, as she calls him, cutely snuggles with her superstar mommy under a luxurious-looking blanket. On top of that, Vogue also interviewed her for their famous 73 Questions segment. There were some hints as to something major happening when Nicki made an announcement on Twitter. “I have something to tell you guys. It’s one of the biggest announcements I’ve ever made. If you’d like me to continue, I need you to first trend #TellUSNicki. GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Congratulations to Nicki for this honor!

What are your initial thoughts on Nicki Minaj covering the December cover for American Vogue for the first time? What do you think happened behind the scenes to get this done?

Saucy Santa Goes Nuclear On Charleston White For His Comments Amid Beef With DJ Akademiks: Watch

by

DJ Akademiks and Yung Miami of the femcee duo, City Girls, have been going back and forth quite some time now. He has repeatedly called her out for lacking much of any talent, and recently, for using homophobic slurs against him. While it is hard to take him seriously most of the time, sometimes he can cross some barriers. There are plenty of cases where he just likes to cause a stir in the community just because. One person who is getting really sick and tired of him is Saucy Santana.

Both of them have been going at it over the Yung Miami slander. This makes sense because Saucy used to do makeup for the City Girls. Of course, they naturally became close and he felt the need to step in and defend the rapper. This has gotten very messy over the past few days, especially with outsiders coming to the defense on both sides of the beef. Recently, one more social media figure decided to weigh in.

That would be none other than Charleston White. He fits the same mold as Akademiks as being a controversial pundit. In the video clips above, the last one reveals what he had to say about the latest developments about the DJ, Saucy, and Miami. One of the most shocking statements White made was about straight men supporting each other and going after the gay man. Boy oh boy did Saucy not like that. In the two previous clips, you can see how furious he is. The comments section certainly brings up some valid and interesting points about it all. Certainly, more and more shade will be thrown and we will be here to cover it.

What are your initial thoughts on this new beef between Saucy Santana and Charleston White? Whose side are you on in the ongoing feud? Does the comments section have a valid point against Charleston? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.

Doja Cat Gets Angry With Fans For Pointing Out Her Nipples On Stream

by

Doja Cat is someone who has had a very interesting year for a plethora of different reasons. Firstly, she started beefing with her very own fans. For instance, she came out and said that a lot of her fans were stupid for enjoying her pop output. Furthermore, she continued to alienate fans further with her actions. Overall, this led to a lot of people being upset with her and abandoning their fandom. Once her album Scarlet dropped, fans seemingly came back and made “Paint The Town Red” a number-one song.

These days, Doja Cat is actually on tour, and she is looking to make the most of it. So far, many of the videos coming out from the tour are quite good. Doja seems to be at the top of her game, and she is selling out venues. However, one area that she has been a bit more erratic in, has been her Instagram Live sessions. The artist is always acting in a bizarre manner, and fans have been pretty interested in all of it. In her latest livestream, things definitely took a turn as she wore a racy top that exposed some of her assets.

Doja Cat Continues Her Erratic Streak

Throughout the video, Doja Cat can be seen admonishing her fans for pointing out that her nipples were visible. This leads to a rant of sorts in which she continues to bounce up and down. “Oh no, you see my nipples? You see my big fat tits?” Doja said. “Oh God! Oh no! You see them? My nipples? Oops! Shut up! Shut the fuck up.” It was a rant that was to the point, and it has subsequently gone a bit viral.

Overall, Doja is a free spirit who will continue to do as she pleases. Let us know what you think of her behavior, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will continue to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists.

Did Lori Harvey & Damson Idris Breakup? Fans Speculate As Joint IG Photos Disappear

by

Just when we got used to seeing Lori Harvey and Damson Idris glowing while travelling the globe together, rumour has it the pair has gone their separate ways. Much like her last breakup (this one from Michael B. Jordan), the socialite hasn’t actually confirmed the gossip about her fractured relationship. However, the fact that Daily Mail reports both the model and actor as having srubbed their Instagram feeds of each other is telling that there’s trouble afoot. As the outlet also notes, Harvey showed up solo to Kendall Jenner’s Halloween party last month, causing some to raise their eyebrows as she and Idris were spending plenty of time together beforehand.

Their last public outing together was in September, during their stint at Paris Fashion Week. In paparazzi photos captured at the time, the Snowfall star noticeably kept his distance from Harvey, who seemed to spend much of the trip in her own company. Early October still saw some mentions of Idris on his other half’s Story, though those have since died out. Instead, the skin care mogul has been focusing on improving herself with regular workouts and cold plunges at alo.

As for the English-born entertainer, he’s currently in New York City, according to a recent IG post. “Where the chopped cheese at?” Idris asks in his thick accent while wandering through the Big Apple. “I ❤ NYC” he wrote over the clip, at least ensuring us that his heart isn’t totally shut off should he be back on the market as a single man.

GloRilla And Central Cee Link Up For Tommy Hilfiger Shoot

by

Hip-hop reaching its 50th year as a genre has been a historical milestone for music overall. After all of these years, it is still standing the test of time. There have been quite a few genres and subsets that have come and gone, and seeing rap continue to thrive is astounding. Many publications and events have been doing features, interviews, and shows to celebrate and now an iconic clothing line is joining in. Tommy Hilfiger has just recruited GloRilla and Central Cee to show off their new clothing line.

Interestingly, this is not the first time that GloRilla has shown off new pieces for the brand that sports navy, red, and white. In fact, the Tommy Jeans Instagram page just posted her and Quavo rocking a collaboration with Avirex. Both rappers were wearing what looked to be white leather varsity-style jackets with Avirex across the chest. Now, she is back, this time with UK drill star Central Cee, to rep hip-hop and ’90s fashion.

According to Hypebeast, the pieces in this drop are supposed to pay homage to the rappers who popularized the baggy look in that decade. The legendary visionary made a statement about the reasoning for this latest offering. “An iconic anniversary calls for an iconic capsule. With this collection, we celebrate moments in style that defined the ’90s hip-hop look and rework them for today. He continues, “I am so excited to work with Central Cee and GloRilla — two modern icons who are bringing the culture’s fearless creativity to the next generation.”

What are your initial thoughts on Tommy Hilfiger working with GloRilla and Central Cee for the new clothing line celebrating hip-hop’s 50th anniversary? Was this the right move for the brand to bring on these two artists? Are they the hottest rappers on the come-up right now? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this.

50 Cent Throwback Photo Reminds Us How Curtis Jackson Made It Out The Mud

by

Few people go through what Curtis Jackson has endured and live to tell the story, but today (November 6), the Power producer is starting his week by reflecting on just how far he’s come since his days as a youth in New York. Earlier this month, 50 Cent celebrated one of his first major hits, “In Da Club” achieving Diamond certification from the RIAA. Now, he’s showing off a throwback photo along with a poignant caption sharing the father of two’s thoughts on defying all expectations by making it out the mud.

“This is what it looks like when you have nothing and you fall in love with something,” Fif wrote in the caption of today’s upload. In the image, a young Jackson calmly looks down at production equipment in front of him, perhaps in a makeshift studio or someone’s basement. It’s unclear if he knew just how far his star would rise at this point, but the East Coast superstar hasn’t stopped striving for greatness since his run in the industry first began.

He also wrote, “Music is magic. People don’t agree on anything, but when the right music comes on they agree to have a good time.” Even with all the division and chaos unfolding in our world today, Jackson feels as though people can continue to find common ground and connect through art. Swizz Beatz and Michael Blackson are among those praising Fif in the comments, with the latter hinting at showing up to his friend’s upcoming London concert.

Seeing 50 Cent get sentimental on his main page is a rare occurrence these days, particularly after Keefe D’s arrest. Amid the long-running investigation into Tupac’s murder, the New Yorker has been trolling the late legend’s accused killer relentlessly online, and dragging Diddy’s name through the mud at the same time. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Blueface’s Mom Spills Tea On Chrisean Rock, Jaidyn Alexis, And More: Watch

by

If we’re not hearing about Blueface from the mouth of Chrisean Rock or Jaidyn Alexis, the next woman we can almost guarantee to come through with content about the “Thotiana” hitmaker is his mother, Karlissa Saffold. During a recent Instagram Live session, the actress had plenty to get off her chest regarding both of her son’s baby mamas, including revelations as to what may have resulted in his final split from Rock.

Though the Porter family matriarch isn’t a huge fan of Alexis, she does admire how the “Stewie” rapper was able to take back Chrisean’s place in their co-parent’s heart. “When she complained about the s**t he did, she complained about real s**t,” Saffold said, seemingly comparing her youngest grandson’s mom to the boy who cried wolf. “She ain’t call him no fa**ot, she ain’t say he was soft. When she talked about her man, she talked about the truth honey, and you gotta stick to the truth” Karlissa praised Jaidyn for her candour.

Karlissa Saffold Updates Instagram on Blueface’s Relationship Drama

“She’s still a snake though,” Blue’s mom quickly added, making sure not to give her potential future daughter-in-law too much praise. Even though the MILF Music founder proposed to Alexis last month, Saffold isn’t so sure they’ll stay together after their two children have grown up. “You still gotta chance,” she told Rock. “But you gotta calm your s**t down and stick to the facts… Just try to be cordial… I don’t see my son with [Jaidyn], past their kids maybe in high school. I don’t see John nowhere near here in the future cards,” the entertainer further dished.

Karlissa Saffold isn’t the only woman who put Blueface on blast this weekend. In a now-deleted tweet, Rock lashed out at her baby daddy for all the times he acted jealously when others in the industry showed her love. Interestingly, Blue had no problem listing off those who have been playing Alexis’ music, even proudly reposting their free promotion on his social media pages. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Megan Thee Stallion’s “Cobra” Thirst Traps Explain Song’s Meaning, She Goes Live With Life Updates

by

The Hotties have long wondered exactly what transpired between Megan Thee Stallion and Pardison Fontaine leading to their relationship’s demise. Neither party publicly addressed the situation – until this past New Music Friday (November 3), that is. Then, the Houston native shared a bombshell confession in her “Cobra” single, accusing the “Backin’ It Up” hitmaker of cheating on her. Falling victim to infidelity is hurtful enough, but according to Thee Stallion, she returned home to find Pardi receiving oral sex in her bed, which was an understandable cause to send him packing.

Fans have been expressing concern about Tina Snow’s dark lyrics online, but earlier this weekend, she went Live to assure us that she’s in a good place at this time. “It’s a Hot Girl Production, we’re independent,” she excitedly declared after distancing herself from 1501 Certified Entertainment. Later on during her stream, Thee Stallion declared, “I feel like I’m giving peace, love, tranquillity” before showing off her “ti**ies” on the NSFW dress she donned that day.

Jayda Cheaves Serves Body In A Plunging Black Dress & Bikini During Dess Dior’s Birthday Trip

by

Both Jayda Cheaves and Summer Walker have been posting (and glowing) constantly on Instagram over the past few days and for reasons no longer related to their social media feud. While the R&B diva has reconciled with her man, Lil Meech (despite saying she didn’t have it in her to tolerate infidelity like Jayda Wayda did with Lil Baby), the mother of one is enjoying her single status while exploring beautiful Dubai for her friend Dess Dior’s birthday.

When she saw blog posts about the Still Over It singer spinning the block with the BMF actor, Cheaves couldn’t resist trolling the couple. However, since then she’s putting her energy back on herself, ensuring she was camera-ready from head-to-toe to travel to the Middle East. On Friday (November 3), the reality starlet began her weekend with a bang, flaunting her famous BBL in a tiny black bikini while looking out at the blue water in front of her. “Not saying I’m the best at what I do. I’m just saying that it’s me vs. whoever wanna lose,” Jayda confidently wrote in her caption.

Jaidyn Alexis Demands STI Test, Detox, And Shower From Blueface Before She’ll Sleep With Him: Watch

by

Blueface’s fidelity has been called into question numerous times throughout his relationship with Jaidyn Alexis. When the California native finally got down on one knee to propose earlier this month, some thought taking such a major move might cause Blue to continue staying faithful to his other half. However, Chrisean Rock has been claiming that they’ve been intimate in recent weeks. Elsewhere, the 26-year-old was getting handsy with an unidentified woman at a party earlier this fall. Despite all the gossip, Alexis has stood beside her man, though a recent Instagram Live proves that she’s setting down some boundaries with him after the latest rumours.

“I like when you talk to me all nasty like that. Save that s**t for the bed,” Blue tells the mother of two in the clip below. “I’m sleeping in Journey’s room,” she quickly replies, sharing her plans to have a slumber party with the pair’s daughter. “Shut the f**k up, bro, you really dragging this s**t,” the “Thotiana” hitmaker shot back with a laugh before his friend joined in. “So you ain’t gonna sleep in the bed with your husband?” the father of three asked Alexis. “Not when you keep talking!” she told her man from off-camera.

After some more teasing from Blue, his first baby mama makes it known that she has expectations before she’s willing to share a bed (or her body) with him. “Go take a shower, detox, [STI] test,” Alexis lists off her demands while cackling, though the MILF Music founder doesn’t seem to take her too seriously.

Jaidyn Alexis’ disdain for Chrisean Rock isn’t anything she’s tried to hide over the years. Still, we were surprised to hear just how upset she got over a call between the 23-year-old and Blueface in audio that was shared on The Jason Lee Show earlier this month.
