Cardi B Hits The Met Gala With Nine People To Help Her With Massive Dress

Leave it to Cardi B to be among the most talked-about and eye-popping fits at the Met Gala last night (Monday, May 6). Moreover, she wore a black gown with gothic leanings and a large headdress to match, along with diamond and emerald jewelry, but the real talking point here was the skirt, which spread out to create a pretty big black flower around her feet. In fact, the toxic-men-blaster needed up to nine assistants to be able to fan out the dress beneath her. “I’m that b***h and you b***hes could never,” she told a red carpet interviewer when she was down to seven assistants instead of nine, speaking on how that help made her feel. “Before y’all consider comparing yourself to me, b***h.”

Elsewhere during that conversation, Cardi B joked about the sheer weight of her dress and pointed out that she could detach the skirt so she could dance. For her afterparty that she hosted later that night, though, she instead donned a different red dress that was much more sleek, and one that she rocked all by herself. However, this afterparty was also interesting for other reasons, such as the 31-year-old popping out with her rumored on-and-off-again partner, Offset. Their relationship status is a bit unclear at the moment, but with this and a Knicks basketball game appearance recently, it appears as though things are at least very amicable.

Cardi B Enlists Nine Men To Help Her With Her Skirt At The 2024 Met Gala

Elsewhere in the entertainment world, Cardi B is keeping things relatively quiet while she preps for the release of her album later in 2024. But she might not have been able to avoid more smoke in the process, as fans speculated that JT dissed her on her new single, “OKAY.” “She ate crab legs, now her whole tooth missing,” she spits on her verse. “Cheap a** veneers, you stay talking s**t / Put a marker to this b***h, she’s so counterfeit.” While we don’t know whether this was a direct shot or not, it’s not something we expect to find out anytime soon.

Meanwhile, Cardi B is still capitalizing on all of this in one way or another. With that new drop coming soon, she’s building up a lot of hype for her to deliver, which is pretty big pressure. But it seems like all bets are off for the bangers that could come next. We’ll see just how many people step in to help and what those collaborative results will look like, as well as solo mode.

Boosie Badazz Puts Up $10K Reward For Return Of Diamond Chain

Boosie Badazz is offering up to $10K if anyone can help him find a diamond chain he lost this week. “Aye I just lost my muthafuckin’– my all-white diamond chain. Got $5-10,000 whoever bring me my chain back. I just had it on when I did the drop [I posted earlier]. I went in the hotel and worked out, I had it on when I went to my room. My chain is gone, bro. I don’t know if it done came off my neck when I was walking upstairs or something but whoever get me my chain, I got the money on me right now. I’ma pay you $5-10,000 for my chain. I’ma pay you $5-10,000 you bring me my chain. I got the money. I’ma pay you right now.,” Boosie said in a video on social media.

It appears that Boosie lost the chain in a freak accident and simply wants it back. It’s a little a weird that there is a $5K range in the reward money. However, that’s some life-changing cash for a good Samaritan if they stumble across Boosie’s chain.

Boosie Reacts To Fat Joe Shoutout

However, in more positive news, Boosie had a heart-warming reaction to being shouted out by Fat Joe at the recent BET Hip Hop Awards. “Fat Joe just gave me a shout out! Fat Joe know what I be going through, Fat Joe just gave me a shout out! Real n-ggas do real things. I’m giving Fat Joe all the love tonight! Fat Joe just gave me a shout out!” Boosie gushed on Instagram after the ceremony. Furthermore, a camera cut to the rapper as it happened, show Boosie barely able to contain his excitement in the moment.

Elsewhere, Boosie also recently collabed with B.G. as the Cash Money rapper continues to rebuild his career after his release from prison. The pair dropped “My Dawg” together. While Boosie had his own verse, B.G. also made sure to shout out his long-time friend. “I was blessed to have a friend like [Boosie] in the can/ Every holiday he would hit me mom with a bag/ What n-gga you know doing shit like that,” he rapped.

Young Thug Helping His Lawyer In Court During Hearing: Watch

Young Thug and YSL’s RICO case is still hanging in an odd limbo state, but that’s not letting the defense team get their spirits down. Moreover, a video recently emerged online of Thugger helping his lawyer Brian Steel with proceedings during a court hearing. Specifically, it seems like Steel enlisted the Atlanta trap pioneer to help him take some notes down, as he put pen to paper when the judge clarified some numbers. It may be a very small and, for many, meaningless task, but it’s not every day you see defendants being an active part of the courtroom process. At best, it serves as a heartening symbol for both Thug and Steel working their hardest to make their case together.

Furthermore, both have done everything they can to both move this trial forward and get the freedom they seek. The last update on this case was the defense team moving to exclude evidence of alleged goat sacrifices from the trial. Of course, this was a bizarre and concerning development, if only because of the dark and mysterious nature of the act and its ludicrousness when said out loud. Regardless, it’s similar to other motions to dismiss artifacts, statements, and other pieces of evidence that could paint Young Thug and YSL in a negative light in ways that don’t relate to the indicted charges.

Young Thug Takes Notes During Hearing

Unfortunately, many of these efforts have not worked out in their favor. The BUSINESS IS BUSINESS MC saw multiple denials of bond, the most recent of which came after a hospital scare. With jury selection still underway amid multiple delays, it could be a long time before the trial actually gets up and running. Despite the suggestion that the developments right now are moot, there’s been no shortage of wild and consequential layers added to this story.

Meanwhile, fans still appreciate any chance to see Jeffery throughout all this. Sometimes, he looks distraught, whereas on other days like this note-taking instance, he seems to keep his head up through it all. All fans can hope for is that his health is much better now, and that this long wait doesn’t take a tougher toll on him.

Raz B Climbs Out Of Hospital Window, Sparks Fan Concern After Calls For Help

Former B2K singer Raz B recently caused a lot of fan concern after TMZ released a video of him breaking a Kansas City hospital window and escaping onto the roof. Moreover, Raz seemingly went to Saint Luke’s Hospital for a surgical procedure and had posted an Instagram video calling for help as he feared for his well-being. When authorities caught wind of his exit, police talked him inside and he is currently under evaluation with medical staff. In his video, the 37-year-old suggested that he didn’t think he would survive the surgery at the hospital. As such, this latest incident only further alerted supporters and brought up more discussion surrounding his health.

“All day I’ve been trying to clear miscommunications up, but I want everybody to know right now … I don’t feel safe,” he remarked in his post. “I’m in Kansas City, I’m at the Hilton Hotel and I’m telling everybody right now, Raz B does not feel safe. Put out an APB for Raz B in Kansas City, I don’t feel safe. That’s the location where I’m at. Call all my Army friends, Marine friends. No, I’m not good. That’s exactly where I’m at. Come get me. Yup, I’m standing right here and everybody’s gonna be compliant. I’m not saying something’s going on, I’m just letting my people know I don’t feel safe.”

Raz B Scares Fans By Breaking Hospital Window To Escape To Roof

Last year, Raz B caused similar concern when he revealed that the police arrived at his home. However, he later explained the less worrisome circumstances concerning the raid. “At around 1:30 a.m. this morning, I realized I unfortunately locked myself out of my apartment when arriving home from an event,” he wrote. “I was able to enter after several attempts, however someone did contact the local officials. I was able to speak with the police chief and explain the situation. He was an angel and all is well now. You can only imagine how I felt being an African-American male in today’s society, and you have the police randomly knock on your door in the middle of the night.”

The B2K Singer’s Instagram Message

Meanwhile, earlier this year, the artist spoke on organizing Lil Fizz’s apology to Omarion after he went public with his relationship with Omarion’s ex. The public conversation around B2K’s legacy has also brought about much concern and care for Raz’s physical and mental state. Hopefully he gets the help he needs and is able to live a prosperous life without having to escape unwanted medical procedures. That being said, we hope the surgery actually results in his recovery. For more news and the latest updates on Raz B, keep checking in with HNHH.

Drake Helped Pi’erre Bourne Get His Passport

On the musical side of things, despite their close touring and personal relationship, Drake and Pi’erre Bourne haven’t collaborated much. Moreover, the first thing that fans might think of is the couple of the rapper-producer’s tracks that Drizzy was going to be on that never came to be. Also, there’s the Pi’erre-produced “Pain 1993” featuring Playboi Carti on the OVO mogul’s Dark Lane Demo Tapes project. However, they still look out for each other, and the Kansas-born artist joined the Canadian superstar on the “Boy Meets World” tour in Australia and New Zealand back in 2017. Not only that, but Drake actually helped him get his passport.

“With Drake, when we was on tour, that was cool,” Pi’erre Bourne remarked during an interview at Coachella this year. “‘Boy Meets World’ tour, that was awesome. We went to Australia and New Zealand. So he actually showed me the world early on, fresh off the couch, my friend’s couch. He got me my passport, like, Drake helped me get my passport again so, yeah.” Some friends don’t just pay for your flight; they can help you take one anywhere, too.

Pi’erre Bourne Recalls Touring With Drake

What’s more is that Pi’erre Bourne is far from the only rapper to have received help from the 6 God. French Montana recently shouted him out for helping him produce his documentary. “Shout out to Drake for helping me do it,” he remarked. “Shout out to Puff. Shout out to Max B for letting them cameras come inside that maximum security prison and helping me document it. Shout out to my mother. She never been on nothing. That was her first one and it just shows that me, her and my father came here not even speaking English and it shows that your temporary moment doesn’t have nothing to do with your long-term.”

Meanwhile, the “IG” MC and beatsmith has been on plenty of tours since “Boy Meets World.” In fact, he has a few upcoming dates in May playing in Houston, New York, Los Angeles, and Atlanta. If you’re interested in hearing his woozy stylings in person, check out dates and tickets here. Also, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Drake and Pi’erre Bourne.

Real Boston Richey Needs Drake’s Help After Getting Swindled By Sneaker Reseller

Real Boston Richey recently got scammed by a sneaker reseller who sold him the Certified Lover Boy Nike Air Force 1s. After he got two right shoes with his order, the “Bullseye 2” MC had to ask Drake himself for some help to “get [him] right big bruh” because “they doing [him] wrong.” Despite the unfortunate nature of the situation, it at least shows that this type of scam can happen to anyone, not just regular customers. Via an Instagram video, Richey showed off the two right shoes and made his impassioned plea to Drizzy to help him out. After all, he did gift Bfb Da Packman a pair to congratulate his weight loss journey, so maybe he’ll have the same goodwill this time.

“Man you gotta fix this,” Real Boston Richey asked Drake. “I can’t even splash how I want to. These f**k n***as stay selling me two rights. And y’all ain’t even put the beads in the box. Now I gotta go regular white lows. I’m tryna splash on them [with the] Drake motherf***ers. Aye, listen man. All you h*e a** n***as, you resale a** f**k n***as. Y’all n***as- next time you n***as sell me two rights, gettin’ your a** robbed!”

Real Boston Richey Needs Drake To Give Him A Pair

Furthermore, the CLB Forces aren’t the most distinguishable of sneakers, so the confusion is at least predictable. Moreover, they look like regular white 1s, but with some minor tweaks like the phrase “Love you forever” in cursive on the midsole. Not only is it a slight reference to the album the shoe’s based on, but it actually goes all the way back to Drake’s childhood. “Love You Forever AF1 dedicated to my incredible mother and our favourite book,” he revealed around the sneaker’s release. The book in question is Love You Forever by Robert Munsch and Sheila McGraw, and it’s about a mother singing her son a lullaby at each stage of his life.

Meanwhile, Real Boston Richey might have better luck copping Drake’s upcoming collaboration with the NBA. To elaborate, his apparel collection of varsity jackets, hoodies, and more featuring various league teams will drop on Friday (April 21). Maybe Richey will still be able to “splash” on them with this new official merch drop as opposed to trusting resellers. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Real Boston Richey and Drake.

Lil Baby Thanks Fan Who Helped Him After Car Accident

Lil Baby rewarded a fan who helped him following a car accident by throwing a stack of cash his way. The wholesome moment was shared in a post on TikTok, earlier this week.

“I ain’t seen her over there,” Baby explained in the clip as he stands on the side of the road. “I was in that truck!”

The woman who posted the clip’s husband apparently helped Baby move the car and change its tire. Another clip shows Baby on the ground holding a car jack and assessing the damage. According to the TikTok, Baby then “blessed” the poster’s husband with a stack of cash. He also posed for pictures with family as they flexed the money.

Baby certainly has money to spare with him finishing up one of the most successful years of his career. He ends 2022 having had 40 songs on the Billboard Hot 100. The number leaves him in a tie with Drake for the most among all artists.

He shared his latest album, It’s Only Me, back in October. The project features appearances from Nardo Wick, Young Thug, Fridayy, Future, Rylo Rodriguez, Jeremih, EST Gee, and Pooh Shiesty.

All 23 songs from the album debuted on the Hot 100. In doing so, Baby became just the third artist ever to have their entire album land on the chart after release. He also became the youngest solo artist to do so.

Additionally, Baby helmed his own song for the 2022 Qatar World Cup titled “The World Is Yours To Take.”

Check out the TikTok featuring Lil Baby below.
