There has been quite a bit of talk on social media regarding who Mulatto is in a relationship with. The Georgia rapper has recently opened up about her new romance, saying that she’s happy and wanting to make sure the public doesn’t tear down what she and her significant other have built. There have been suggestions that Mulatto could be with Key Glock, 21 Savage, or BRS Kash, but she remains silent about her mystery man. However, fuel was added to the gossip fire recently after 21 Savage shared an image of the makeup-less Queen of Da Souf artist along with the caption, “Dam u fine, it’s only 1 way I can come bout you twin.”

He quickly deleted the image from his Instagram, but it was too late and the post circulated online. Savage has previously denied that he and Mulatto are together, but fans are now thinking otherwise. Meanwhile, Key Glock was finally asked about the rumors that he and Mulatto sparked up a romance—gossip that she claimed wasn’t true.

The Shade Room spoke with Key Glock and Young Dolph in a virtual chat and asked Glock if he was a single man. After a long pause, Glock began to laugh. “Aye, Glock ain’t had a, like, Glock ain’t been in no real relationship—well not real relationship—Glock ain’t been in no relationship probably since high school,” the rapper answered in the third person. Check it out below.

She may be busy preparing for the arrival of her firstborn, but Taina Williams carved out time to shut down rumors. Recently, G Herbo was on Instagram Live while speaking to his pregnant fiancé and during the chat, they reminisced on the early days before they officially decided to be a couple. They spoke about how they “talked” for a while before meeting and Herbo referred to their child as a “he,” leaving the public to believe that they are having a son. Hollywood Unlocked shared the video along with a caption that rubbed Taina the wrong way.

In the caption, it stated that Herbo “not only suggested that & #TainaWilliams were talking while he was with #AriFletcher, but also revealed his unborn’s gender.” Taina slid into their comments to shut down the gossip. “Lies lies & lies,” she reportedly wrote. “I’m sick of y’all trying to make me look bad,” she added. “[And] coming up with y’all own timelines.”

G Herbo and Ari announced their breakup in 2018 after dating for years. At the time, Herbo and Taina faced cheating accusations after the rapper was called out on Instagram, but they both have denied the allegations. Chec

Havoc is a legendary rapper and producer who will always be beloved in the New York hip-hop scene. As part of Mobb Deep, Havoc helped run the 90s alongside Prodigy, and to this day, fans can be found bumping their records and paying homage. Coming from New York, Havoc was a massive Knicks fan and he was right there to witness Patrick Ewing at the height of his career.

With this in mind, Havoc decided to team up with Ewing Athletics for a brand new collaboration on the Ewing Focus, which is a silhouette that debuted back in 1993. As you can see from the photos below, this model is black and white, with various references to Havoc throughout.

Havoc is also placed on the tongue, right underneath branding that says The Infamous. This is a must-cop pair for any Mobb Deep fan out there and if you’re from New York, these will be near and dear to your heart.

They have enough collaborations to make up an album, but Rick Ross and Drake have yet to pull the trigger on a collaborative project. This is something that fans have not-so-quietly been asking about for years, and after their latest link-up on “Lemon Pepper Freestyle” from Drizzy’s Scary Hours 2 EP, the intensity surrounding a possible joint album has increased exponentially.

For over a decade, fans have heard Drake and Ross come together on wax, and if the Florida rapper’s most recent comments are to be believed, we’ll have a collaborative project sooner than we think. While speaking with Atlanta’s Streetz 94.5 radio hosts, Ross offered an update.”What I’mma tell you is after I laid this release, his incredible project he released, ‘Lemon Pepper Freestyle’, we had that conversation,” said Rozay. “And it’s most definitely under serious consideration. Real talk.”

Unsurprisingly, fans are hyped about the possibility. Earlier this month, Chad Ochocinco may have spilled the beans when he confirmed that a joint album is in the works. Check out the clip of Ross’s interview below and let us known if you are looking forward to this collaboration.

Kanye West has delivered quite a few Adidas Yeezy sneakers over the years and while he may be mostly known for the 350 V2, there are plenty of fans out there who prefer him for his incredible dad shoes. The Adidas Yeezy Boost 700 was the first of these sneakers and over the years, he came out with various iterations. One of which was the 700 MNVN which was known for its alternative upper and big block numbering on the side as the shoe says “700.”

Now, the sneaker is going to be coming back after a brief hiatus, with an all-new “Blue Tint” model which can be found below. The shoe has silver “700” branding on the side all while the vast majority of the upper is a light blue color. From there, the tongue, back heel, and even the midsole is black, which adds some nice contrast to all of the other aesthetics here.

According to Yeezy Mafia, this is a model that will drop in July although this information is subject to change. With this in mind, keep it locked to HNHH as we will be sure to bring you all of the latest sneaker updates. In the meantime, let us know what you think, in the comments below.

It’s unclear what Michael Rapaport was trying to accomplish when he shared his DM conversations with Kevin Durant. Days ago, Rapaport accused the NBA star of threatening him and uploaded a series of screenshots that showed Durant using, let’s say, unfavorable language with the actor. Durant quickly came forward to apologize and insisted that he and Rapaport speak to each other that way regularly. Rapaport responded by continuing his tirade against Durant by not only speaking about the controversy on his podcast but by sharing several social media posts about the incident. In turn, Durant was fined $50K but the league.

“Yo, this situation with Durant has gotten out of hand. I feel bad about it. I feel bad about my involvement in the situation,” said Rapaport in a video he shared on Instagram. “I feel bad that it’s gotten this far. You know, I met him one time, it was cool, cordial. I’mma fan. I met him as a fan. And the funny thing is, he actually had reached out to me about doing something that I call on social media, ‘The Shame Game,’ about putting people who talk sh*t on social media on blast. That was actually the way we met.”

Rapaport added that this wasn’t the first time he’d posted DMs from people. “People are saying anti-Semitic things about me. Saying racist things about me, threatening me, and they’re Joe Shmoes, everybody loves it. But when it was Durant, people got four hundred opinions, I’m a rat. F*ck all that rat sh*t.”

“I don’t consider him a friend. The way he was talking to me is not like a person who is a friend. I don’t speak to friends like that. I don’t banter with friends, telling them, ‘Yo, when I see you, I’m gonna spit in your face, ha ha ha,'” the actor added. “That’s not banter. That’s not locker room talk. Those are threats. They were made over and over and over. It’s been going on for months.”

Rapaport said Durant just happened to catch him on a “bad day” this week. “That being said, in my opinion, the whole situation got blown out of proportion.” Check out his explanation below.

It seems that we’re approaching the end of an era for Safaree Samuels. The reality star is known for his love of furs and in 2019, he even attended a pro-fur rally that made the local news in New York City. At the time, there was an anti-fur bill on the books and Safaree made his voice heard as he stood against the measure. However, he’s changed his tune since watching a few Netflix documentaries, particularly Seaspiracy, about the decimation of ecosystems.

The Love & Hip Hop New York star shared his thoughts on Twitter. “The fishing industry is going to end the world,” tweeted Safaree. “The illegal fishing and killing of dolphins and whales going on in Japan is unreal. Sharks will soon be extinct. I never knew how important sharks were to our waters until I watched seasspiracy on Netflix.”

He then took aim at his previous fur addiction. “To the FUR world I’ve been ignorant 2 alot of things going on in our planet,” he added. “But now I will make a change and stop supporting the killing of any wildlife and the extinction of living things. I wish the police would feel like this about killing unarmed black men,but this is a start.”

We’re sure PETA will accept him with open arms. Check out his tweets below.

Deshaun Watson is currently battling 19 different sexual assault lawsuits. These suits stem from allegations that he was sexually inappropriate with various massage therapists. In these allegations, each woman describes a similar pattern of behavior that saw Watson allegedly engaging in some disgusting acts. The lawsuits are being handled by attorney Tony Buzbee, who claims there is a plethora of evidence to substantiate the allegations.

Now, a new update has been presented in the case. According to the Houston PD, a formal complaint has been filed against Watson which means an investigation will now be taking place. Rusty Hardin, Watson’s attorney, is thrilled by this notion as he believes it will finally bring forth evidence that Watson did nothing wrong.

“We welcome this long overdue development. Now we will learn the identity of at least one accuser. We will fully cooperate with the Houston Police Department,” Hardin said.

The extent of the complaint was not revealed by the Houston PD although based on Hardin’s statement, it is most likely related to the lawsuits that have popped up over the past two weeks. This is a story that continues to develop and move at a high pace, so keep it locked for updates, as we will be sure to bring them to you.

Days ago, controversial remarks were made by radio host Rob Lederman after he took to the Morning Bull Show and compared women’s skin tones to toaster settings. “I would never go to a Serena Williams level, but I’m very comfortable with a Halle Berry level,” said Lederman. Soon, he was fired from his job and he later issued an apology, but Berry wouldn’t let it slide. She publicly condemned him, but LisaRaye McCoy doesn’t understand why people are making a big deal out of Lederman’s preferences.

“He’s just saying he doesn’t go as far as a dark-skinned Black woman,” said McCoy while chatting with her Cocktails with Queens co-hosts. “He’s comfortable with the color of a Halle Berry. What’s wrong with that?” Syleena Johnson jumped in to disagree, noting that it wasn’t necessary for Lederman to have a conversation about the skin tones of Black women.

“That’s colorism! He could have said that differently in this climate,” added Johnson. Still, McCoy was unmoved and attempted to counter her co-host. “I always say I either wanna get a latte or I’ll say I wanna caramel latte or a mocha,” said McCoy, But Johnson told her that she’s a Black woman, not a White man making those statements.

Back in January, McCoy was criticized after she defended DaniLeigh following the singer’s “Yellow Bone” controversy, saying she should be able to “celebrate her skin.”
