Kylie and Scott’s 3-year-old daughter, Stormi, was born on February 1, 2018. In the time since, both have engaged in an on-and-off relationship while raising their first child.

Kylie discussed the idea of having a second child during an interview in Harper’s Bazaar for its March 2020 issue, but at the time said she had no plans: “My friends all pressure me about it … They love Stormi. I definitely feel pressure to give her a sibling, but there’s no plan.”

While it wasn’t in the plans at the time, Kylie has admitted she plans on having many more than just one child. On Stassie Karanikolaou’s #DoYourPart Instagram Live series, the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star said she’d eventually like to have as many as seven kids: “I want seven kids down the line, but not right now.”

She explained: “Pregnancy is just not a joke; it’s a serious thing and it’s hard. I’m not ready for that just yet.”

Kendrick Lamar is one of the biggest artists in the world and over the last four years, fans have been wondering as to when he will release his next album. There have been various teasers and rumors, but nothing concrete has been reported from Lamar’s camp. As for as interviews are concerned, the rapper has remained lowkey, and fans have speculated on whether or not this could mean that a new album is on the way.

Well, today, Kendrick finally gave us some insight on what’s going on, and it’s quite shocking, to say the least. In a new post to Instagram, Kendrick unveiled a new website called oklama.com which features one single clickable link called “nu thoughts.” Within this link contains a message to his fans. As K Dot explains, he has been through a lot over the last year, and that his pain is being reflected in his art. He also drops a bombshell, noting that his next album is his last with TDE.

Per Kendrick:

“I spend most of my days with fleeting thoughts. Writing. Listening. And collecting old Beach cruisers. The morning rides keep me on a hill of silence.

I go months without a phone.

Love, loss, and grief have disturbed my comfort zone, but the glimmers of God speak through my music and family.

While the world around me evolves, I reflect on what matters the most. The life in which my words will land next.

As I produce my final TDE album, I feel joy to have been a part of such a cultural imprint after 17 years. The Struggles. The Success. And most importantly, the Brotherhood. May the Most High continue to use Top Dawg as a vessel for candid creators. As I continue to pursue my life’s calling.

There’s beauty in completion. And always faith in the unknown.

Thank you for keeping me in your thoughts. I’ve prayed for you all.

See you soon enough.”

Based on the message, it would appear as though an album is, indeed, on the way, although there is no timeline as to when it will be released. Interestingly enough, Punch from TDE has already reacted to the news, telling a fan “it’s funny you should ask,” after said fan wanted to know when Kendrick’s new album would be dropping.

This news is a lot to process for many Kendrick fans, and it should be interesting to see what the artist does over the coming weeks. Kendrick is good at keeping things under wraps, so stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest updates on his upcoming new project.

Every single week, it feels as though we are reporting on new Air Jordan 1 High OG teasers. This is easily one of the greatest shoes of all time, so it should come as no surprise that Jordan Brand is always coming through with some new models. These offerings typically show up on Instagram before Nike eventually issues the official images, and accounts like @zsneakerheadz always seem to have the initial scoop.

Recently, @zsneakerheadz unveiled the Air Jordan 1 High OG “Marina Blue” which immediately got fans excited thanks to its black base and blue overlays. The blue that was used was quite close to royal blue which is always a beloved shade in terms of Air Jordan 1s. Now, the account is back, this time with an in-hand image of the shoe. As you can see down below, the shoe has the same look as the photoshop rendering and by all accounts, this shaping up to be a strong colorway to open up 2022 with.

For now, the release date has been set for January 15th of 2022 at a price of $170 USD. This is subject to change, so keep it locked to HNHH as we will be sure to bring you all of the latest updates. In the meantime, let us know what you think, in the comments below.

St. Louis rapper Ryan Trey has experienced a lot of success in his music career to date, clocking in over 29 million streams for his song “Nowhere To Run” on Spotify. “Mutual Butterflies” also has over 18 million streams on the platform, and a few of his other records have been rising as of late, including his recent release “It’s About A Girl.” One of the most talented voices on the underground, Ryan Trey is seeking to elevate himself and his art to the next level, having recently partnered with Sprite for his debut performance for Live From The Label, taking the stage with Jack Harlow just yesterday, on August 18.

The concert series has been a massive success, with artists CHLOTHEGOD and Summer Valentine opening up for Latto and Saweetie, respectively.

Prior to his big night with Sprite, Ryan Trey spoke with HNHH for a Sprite-sponsored mini-version of On The Come Up, where he opened up about his origin story, his artistic allure, and some of the biggest co-signs he’s received in the last few years.

Most notably, Ryan Trey is backed by none other than LeBron James. The Los Angeles Lakers superstar is a fan of his music, sharing it with his agent Rich Paul and hyping up the young artist’s career. They ended up meeting in person, and Trey will never forget about what ‘Bron told him.

“When it started to feel like a career for me was when I started meeting my idols and getting that verbal co-sign from them,” said the buzzing rapper about his music. “One of the biggest co-signs was LeBron. In 2019, I just ran into him and Rich Paul. They were playing my music some months before. I ended up going to this birthday party with my homeboy and we just ran into him and he gave me this talk, like, ‘Yo, you’re dope, just keep going. Don’t stop. You’re young. Just focus.’ To hear that from people like him that I look up to in sports, and then to hear that from different artists, it just gave me that confidence, like, ‘Okay, these greats are telling me I’m dope.'”

Learn more about Ryan Trey by watching the full episode of On The Come Up above, presented by Sprite, and checking out a few of his essential tracks below. You’ll also want to pick up a bottle of Sprite or Sprite Zero Sugar to catch the final Live From The Label concert, which just debuted last night, August 18, and included Jack Harlow and Ryan Trey.

Yesterday, we reported on how Max Kellerman could be leaving First Take to pursue other opportunities within ESPN. For instance, Kellerman will reportedly get an expanded role on the radio, and he could even get his very own show in the afternoon. There were also various rumors that Kellerman was leaving due to his relationship with Stephen A. Smith. The rumor is that Smith doesn’t like Kellerman and that their relationship has soured.

Smith got to address these rumors on the “Morning Hustle” podcast. In a tweet from Brandon “Scoop B” Robinson of Bally Sports, we got a small segment of the podcast in which Smith says many of the reports coming out are false.

Smith goes on to say that he doesn’t know if Max is leaving, although he is more than happy to work with him for the foreseeable future. The two have had some differences of opinion, but nothing that would negatively impact their relationship.

“Those reports of me disliking Max are an absolute lie. I actually got a lot of love for the guy,” Stephen A. explained. “If he stays on the show, so be it. If he departs, it will be because they have other things they want him to do.”

Needless to say, the situation at ESPN isn’t as dire as some initially believed. Either way, Kellerman could still be on his way out, which makes us wonder who the boxing reporter’s replacement will be.

Boosie Badazz really wants to find Bobby Shmurda… so much so that he travelled all the way to New York City to yell in the busy streets, looking for the recently-freed rapper. He appears to have been unsuccessful in his search thus far, but you can’t say he hasn’t given it his all.

Touching down in the Big Apple, Boosie couldn’t contain himself as he screamed in the middle of the street.

“I’m very happy to be here,” he said in his best Coming 2 America accent. “New York City. I’m looking for Bobby Shmurda for my drop. Shmurda!!! Sorry, sorry. I’m looking for Bobby Shmurda.”

Clearly, the 38-year-old rapper was excited to be on the East Coast. As cars honked at him for causing a scene, passersby took their phones out and recorded as Boosie yelled for Bobby Shmurda to join him. “My bad, I know it’s early,” said Boosie to somebody complaining about him making so much noise. “Shmurda!! I wanna dance. I need my drop, I wanna dance. I’m trying to put you on a jet.”

Hopefully, they managed to find each other. We’ll keep you updated on whether they were able to meet up.

Bobby Shmurda was released from prison after serving a six-year sentence earlier this year, and fans have been waiting for him to release new music ever since. Maybe Boosie will pressure him into finally dropping some new songs?
