Chicken P Leaves Off Single “Low Life Rich N****”

by

Chicken P is one of the leading voices in the now popular Milwaukee rap scene. The largest city in the state of Wisconsin has really grown lately due to the uniqueness of its sound. We have been focusing on Mr. P, as well as names like Myaap and JP over the last few months and with each release, fans are beginning to pay more and more attention. The Milwaukee lowend style is essentially heavy on the rapid-fire snares and bass and that is exactly what kind of beat Chicken P is bringing on “Low Life Rich N****”. This single is here not too long after his recent projects.

The six-year veteran just dropped off Hardest N**** Livin’ back in May, and BussaBrick Vol.3 :ReallyRich4eva (Deluxe). On “Low Life Rich N****”, raps about his rise to fame and wealth all while still being tied to the streets. The beat slaps, as the elements of a nasty piano loop, bells, and unrelenting snares. With the competition so fierce in this Midwestern city, Chicken P has to work extra hard if he wants to be at the top of the heap.

JJ Redick Breaks Silence On Lakers Head Coaching Rumors

by

It would be astonishing at this point if JJ Redick weren’t the Los Angeles Lakers’ next head coach. Redick’s obligation to call the NBA Finals for ESPN this week presents a dilemma for both parties, as the Lakers are delaying their coaching search until after he concludes his broadcasting responsibilities. The problem is that holding off will just highlight how obvious Redick being the frontrunner is. There would be no need to wait until the Finals are done if they were keen on employing James Borrego.

From now until a decision is made, Redick will be the subject of inquiries regarding the Laker’s position. I have to admit, it would be hilarious if they announced Borrego in place of Redick in late June. In an appearance on GoJo and Golic on Wednesday, the player-turned-podcaster/broadcaster did not exactly put an end to rumors that he is the guy. He stated that while his emphasis is on the NBA Finals. He said, “As for Shams, that will be addressed once the season’s over.” Redick continued, “That is all I have to say.”

JJ Redick Addresses The Lakers Rumours

JJ Redick stressed that his top concern was his Finals broadcasting job and that he was not considering rumors that the Lakers were interested in hiring him to fill their coaching position. Redick will announce the NBA Finals alongside Mike Breen and Doris Burke starting on Thursday. “My focus is on the NBA Finals,” Redick said on “GoJo and Golic” on Wednesday. “In terms of Shams, that will be addressed once the season is over. I’ll just say that.” Redick is currently their first choice based on all the indications. According to league insiders, the Lakers have been seriously considering two possibilities over the past few weeks: Redick and Pelicans associate coach James Borrego.

“I am so fortunate that I am in this position and I get to call these Finals with Doris and Mike,” Redick continued. “My day-to-day right now is consumed with calling games, the 19 different podcasts I feel like I have, my obligations to all of our partners.” Redick continued saying, “Hold on, I don’t mean any job. I mean jobs.” His admission might imply that the ESPN pundit is being pursued by multiple NBA teams this offseason. Despite spending 15 seasons in the NBA as a player, Redick has never held a head coaching position in the league. Last year, the Toronto Raptors expressed interest in hiring him as their new head coach.

Sean Kingston Swarmed By Reporters While Leaving Jail: Watch

by

Late last month, Sean Kingston’s Miami mansion was raided by authorities in connection to a lawsuit. He’s accused of stealing thousands of dollars worth of jewelry, furniture, vehicles, and more. The performer was not home at the time of the raid, though his mother Janice Turner was taken into custody at the scene. Hours later, Kingston was arrested on various charges. The charges include alleged grand theft, fraud, criminal use of personal identification, violating probation, and more.

Turner was released days after her arrest, followed shortly after by her son. He posted a $100K bond before walking out of the Broward County jail yesterday. In footage captured from his release, he’s seen surrounded by a crowd of eager reporters as he makes his way toward a Cadillac Escalade SUV. He dodged multiple questions about his charges, also attempting to keep a low profile with a white t-shirt wrapped around his head. Reportedly, he had his mother, sister, a personal security guard, and more waiting for him outside the jail for roughly an hour.

Sean Kingston Remains Quiet As He’s Asked About Charges

While Kingston opted to keep quiet when asked about the several charges he’s facing, his attorney Bob Rosenblatt is “very confident” that they’d come out victorious in a jury trial. “Well, I don’t know who is claiming they owe money. You know, we were aware of the watches, we are aware of the TV issue,” he told CBS News Miami earlier this week. “If there are other issues I’m not sure about… It’s a breach of contract. There’s no fraud here. There’s no organized fraud at all.”

What do you think of Sean Kingston posting a $100K bond after his arrest for alleged theft, fraud, and more? What about the hitmaker getting swarmed by reporters on his way out? Are you surprised he dodged their questions or not? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

It’s not the first time Lloyd has joined Ashanti on stage recently. Last month, he sang to her and Nelly’s unborn child on stage in Philadelphia. On Instagram afterward, he wrote: “Dear Baby Haynes, you are surrounded by love, by good energy, and by ppl who have prayed for your piece [sic] of mind way before you were born. One day I will tell you of the times I got to sing to you while still in your mothers belly, of how your mommy changed my life, and of how your dad was there for me when I needed a little love and guidance. Can’t wait to meet you and make you laugh. Inshallah, Your Uncle Ladi [infinity emoji, heart emoji, baby emoji].” The post clearly left a mark on Ashanti, who wrote in the comments section: “Omggggg I’m cryinggggg and u know I don’t cry… Thanku Ladi love u soooooooooo much!!!!! Such beautiful and meaningful words… I truly appreciate you so much. I’m literally crying.”

NLE Choppa Under Fire For Latest Inappropriate “SLUT ME OUT 2” Performance

by

NLE Choppa’s new singles have people talking. The most popular of them has been “SLUT ME OUT 2.” The song is a sequel to his surprise hit “SLUT ME OUT” from last year. It’s caught on in some strange ways. The song spawned a viral dance that popped up pretty consistently at graduation last month. Videos flooded the internet of various fans of different ages doing Choppa’s now viral walk associated with the song while walking on stage accepting their degrees.

Some were surprised that such an NSFW song was influencing school graduations. But “SLUT ME OUT 2” has popped up in a lot of unexpected places. One of which was a video of Choppa performing the song alongside basically the last people you’d expect, his parents. Despite the extremely raunchy content of the track, Choppa doesn’t appear to give much thought to who he performs it for. That was the case again recently when he found himself facing criticism online for performing the song at a bat mitzvah. But Choppa had an answer to the accusations of a double standard existing in rap. Check out the whole conversation the video sparked online below.

Fans online seeing the video criticized the rapper’s decision to perform the song for such young children. They also brought up the fact that female rappers are routinely criticized when younger children are exposed to their music, claiming there’s a double standard. “I performed the clean version to this song at the bat mitzvah actually !! And the kids rapped the curse words loud and clear in front of their parents any way !!” Choppa responded, defending his actions. That was just one of multiple tweet responses he made defending his decision to perform the song.

What do you think of NLE Choppa’s defense for performing a version of his song “SLUT ME OUT 2” during a bar mitzvah? Do you think there’s a double standard between male and female rappers regarding inappropriate material? Let us know in the comment section below.
