Hip Hop News

Tonight is the NFL Draft which means numerous players will get to live out their dreams of making it to the NFL. While all eyes were supposed to be on the prospects, it would appear as though much of the discourse has shifted over to the likes of Aaron Rodgers. It was reported this afternoon that Rodgers is no longer happy with the Packers and would actually like to go elsewhere. The San Francisco 49ers, Denver Broncos, and Las Vegas Raiders are all teams that are on Rodgers’ wishlist and many are keeping tabs on what will happen to him tonight.

The news has sent shockwaves throughout the NFL and some players are even commenting on the news. For instance, Patrick Mahomes had something to say about it all as he took to Twitter with a funny comment about what the Draft is about to look like.

“Well i see draft weekend is going to be pretty interesting,” Mahomes explained with some laughing emojis. If you are a Packers fan, this isn’t so amusing as it could very well spell the end of your franchise quarterback’s tenure in Green Bay.

For now, there is still a lot that could happen, so keep it locked to HNHH as we will bring you all of the latest updates.

T-Pain recently exposed his lack of social media prowess by sharing a viral TikTok which showed him scrolling through his Instagram DM “Message Requests” section, and to pretty much everyone’s amazement, the autotune pioneer‘s request folder was packed with a load of messages from verified Instagram users and well-known celebrities, including Diplo, Fergie, Kway, YBN Nahmir, Viola Davis, Nickelodeon, Keri Hilson, and several others. 

As seen above, T-Pain is even blown away by all of the amazing opportunities that he has likely missed over the past two years, but according to the singer’s latest Instagram post, there’s more to the story. T-Pain explains that he’s not simply a “Boomer” who doesn’t understand technology, and in fact, he actually previously knew about the existence of the “Message Requests” section of Instagram’s DMs. However, he wasn’t aware of the option to filter them out, so when he kept getting flooded with “Bartender” and “Buy U A Drank” jokes from fans, he stopped checking his requests folder years ago.

“I’m my defense [laughing emoji] y’all crazy,” T-Pain jokes in the caption for his latest Instagram post. He then gives a major shout-out to his new social media manager, saying, “S/O to the number 1 SMM @guytonporter.”

Throughout the video, T-Pain offers some pretty hilarious explanations behind his viral TikTok, so be sure to watch it in its entirety for a good laugh. Stay tuned to see if T-Pain can recover from his huge Instagram flub and hopefully secure some of the opportunities that he has been overlooking for the past two years.

Aaron Rodgers is one of the best quarterbacks in NFL history although, over the last few years, the Green Bay Packers have disrespected him on numerous occasions. From refusing to give him weapons to drafting his replacement back in 2020, Rodgers hasn’t exactly been given many reasons to stay in Green Bay. All of this was exacerbated on Thursday when Adam Schefter reported that Rodgers wants out of Wisconsin and has demanded a trade.

More details have surfaced, with some reporting that the San Francisco 49ers offered a huge trade package for Rodgers but the Packers refused. Now, Pro Football Talk is reporting that Rodgers wanted to go to San Francisco and was even asking the Packers to accept the deal. According to PFT,  Rodgers would also be interested in playing for the Las Vegas Raiders and Denver Broncos.

All of this news has come as a bombshell to the NFL who is going through the NFL Draft tonight. The draft is always an event that comes with a lot of trades and this year, it should be no exception. If the Packers do decide to trade Rodgers, we can only imagine what kind of reaction there will be.

Austin Rivers has always proven himself to be a solid piece to any team he plays on and over the past few weeks, he has been looking for his next gig. This season, Rivers started out with the New York Knicks although he eventually left and hit the free-agent market around the trade deadline, with a whole host of other players. During that time, Rivers looked to find his new team and the Denver Nuggets came knocking as they gave him a 10-day contract. 

After playing five games with the Nuggets and impressing the coaching staff, Rivers has been signed to a new contract that will take him until the end of the season. This means Rivers will get to be a part of the team’s upcoming playoff run.

The Denver Nuggets are currently fourth in the Western Conference standings which is impressive when you consider how they have been without Jamal Murray. Last season, the Nuggets went all the way to the Western Conference Finals and if they’re able to get good matchups, they could very well make another run this season.

Rivers will prove to be a solid depth piece for this team moving forward and we’re sure he’s motivated to help take this team to the next level.

Tee Grizzley has been one of Detroit’s most consistent emcees, having kept up a prolific pace since first emerging onto the scene. Currently sitting on a respectable discography consisting of six albums, mixtapes, and collaborative projects, Tee Grizzley has officially taken to Instagram to confirm that a seventh is officially on the way. 

The project, which marks his first since he released The Smartest last year, is officially titled Built For Whatever. Though he neglected to share a tracklist, he did confirm that we’ll be seeing the project landing on May 7th. In other words, the same day that TDE teased a mysterious release, immediately fueling speculation that Kendrick Lamar was in play. Suffice it to say, we’re looking at a solid day for hip-hop, as Tee Grizzley has been consistently dropping off strong material with little sign of slowing down.

“Built For Whatever May 7th!!!!!!!!!” he captions, alongside the ominous album cover. “Album pre-save link in my bio.” While not confirmed to be appearing on the project, Grizzley has delivered a slew of new singles ahead of time, including the G-Herbo-assisted “Never Bend Never Fold,” the Lil Durk-assisted “White Lows Off Designer,” and the vividly rendered crime saga “The Robbery Pt 2.” It should be interesting to see which sonic direction Grizzley opts to take on this one, and we don’t have to wait much longer to find out.

Check out the album cover for Built For Whatever below, and look for the full album to drop on Friday, May 7th.
