Quavo Roasted For His Acting In New John Travolta Movie, But He Doesn’t Mind

by

Quavo is now an actor, as folks are talking about his role in a new John Travolta action movie about a heist gone wrong and all the antics, dangers, and thrills that unfold as a result. Cash Out released this Friday (April 26) in select theaters and for rentals on VOD, and as is typical for a more B-movie type of experience, there were plenty of critical but also amused reviews and takes on it, particularly his performance. Still, it seems like the former Migo is letting all of that slide, as he called himself “Quazel Washington” in the comments section of a DJ Akademiks post which included a clip from the film, which you can see below. Can’t wait for his next roles in The Book Of Huncho, The Discriminizer (listen to “pick up the phone” for context), and of course, Training Quay.

Furthermore, there were a lot of comments on Quavo’s performance in particular all over social media, not just under this Ak post. Many of them came from Chris Brown fans, who found yet another reason to claim that their fav is destroying him in their beef. Whether you’re on Breezy’s side or Huncho’s, their back-and-forth has rivaled even that of the “Big Three” debacle that really just turned into the “Big Two & Guests” feud involving Kendrick Lamar, Drake, and J. Cole. If nothing else, at least they’ve quickly and firmly responded to each other’s diss tracks and are sticking to the script.

Quavo Comments On His Acting Skills Under This Post

Elsewhere, Quavo and Chris Brown’s ex-partner-in-common, Karrueche Tran, recently responded to all this beef, given that much of it is allegedly over her. “I don’t feel,” she told a reporter at an airport recently. “It is what it is, I’m living my life. Working, paying my bills, taking time for myself and that’s all that matters. What else is going on, I ain’t got nothing to do with it. I’m living a peaceful life that’s all I want. No! No comments. I just don’t want any parts, I want peace and happiness. I want to work and thrive.”

Meanwhile, what do you think of the “Over H*es & B***hes” MC’s acting chops in Cash Out? Does he have a future in film or should he stick to the music videos? Either way, let us know in the comments section down below. Also, stick around on HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Quavo.

Kanye West’s Ex-Employee Accuses Him Of Discriminating Against Black Donda Academy Staff

by

Kanye West’s Donda Academy endeavor has resulted in several lawsuits thus far, the latest coming from a former security guard for the school. The ex-guard, Benjamin Deshon Provo, claims to have allegedly suffered “severe emotional distress” due to West’s behavior. Per court documents obtained by Page Six, he’s seeking unspecified damages.

“Kanye and members of his management team subjected Provo and other black employees to less favorable treatment than their white counterparts,” the lawsuit reads. “Specifically, Kanye frequently screamed at and berated black employees, while in contrast, he never so much as raised his tone of voice toward white staff.” Provo additionally accuses Ye of ridiculing Black employees for wearing locs. According to the former employee, he did so as part of his Muslim faith.

“Kanye and members of his management team required Provo to choose between these critical aspects of his self-identity and financial stability,” the lawsuit continues. “Indeed, at the direction of Kanye, Provo was given the ultimatum, cut his hair, or be fired.” Provo additionally alleges that books by Black leaders like Martin Luther King Jr. were banned from the school.

Unfortunately, these are far from the only shocking allegations against West made by former Donda Academy employees. Ex-teachers have previously accused Ye of wrongful termination, not allowing students to go outside or use chairs, and much more. It’s even been alleged that the school’s curriculum omitted various major pieces of history, including the holocaust. What do you think of Kanye West being accused of discriminating against his Black employees? What about the other allegations from former Donda Academy staff?

Again THANK YOUUUUU thank YALL.” The summer-ready single has fans looking forward to what’s to come on her mixtape, and speculating about a few of her lines.

Drake Seems To Troll Kendrick Lamar Yet Again As He Waits For A Response

by

Well, it seems like Drake is far from done with trolling Kendrick Lamar again on social media amid their rap beef, for which the latter still has yet to drop another track responding to the former’s two disses. Moreover, some fans think that his latest Instagram Story is actually targeting rival. This is due to what Drizzy is wearing in the “fit pic”: a sweatshirt of Compton Community College, where K.Dot’s wife reportedly (and allegedly) attended, and chains that (allegedly) are or at least resemble Tupac Shakur’s. No caption, no song attached: just a mirror selfie. That’ll definitely show him…

Furthermore, what was once the most exciting and potentially expansive hip-hop “civil war” the genre’s seen in decades now turned into a coup d’état… on both ends. On one hand, you have the “20 versus 1” against Drake, which he’s been able to effectively dismiss despite Future, Metro Boomin, and company’s attempts to unite to “take him down.” On the other, there’s Kendrick Lamar’s lack of response, and how much of the rap community now doubts if he can “hold the crown” if he can’t clap back in a beef he technically started. But it’s fair to say that, for rap fans with no horse in this race, both outcomes have been disappointing to some degree.

Drake’s Latest (Alleged) Kendrick Lamar Troll

For one, Drake’s consistent trolling of Kendrick Lamar is starting to backfire at least a little bit, as putting all this energy with no response is really putting him in a 50 Cent antic category that he was right on the border of. Add onto that a removed diss track that used Tupac and Snoop Dogg’s A.I. voices and you’ve got plenty of reason as to why hardcore rap nerds, casual fans, and the industry at large is either feeling skeptical about this approach or mostly interested in the spectacle of it all. Of course, the Compton lyricist’s lack of response is patient and somewhat confusing, but above all, it speaks volumes as to his confidence in his superiority and his refusal to play into social media bait. But it’s also harder to swallow when he’s been wanting this for years.

Meanwhile, with rumors that this was all to promote a supposed new album from the pgLang creative, that would certainly be a sad reality to cope with that many fans are fearing right now. If all the smoke is for marketing or to give yourself a boost, weren’t there less combative, incendiary, or genuine ways of building hype? It’s clear that the only thing that can get things back on track is a response, or at least something from Mr. Morale, but it’s definitely been an interestingly bizarre dynamic to witness. On that note, come back to HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Kendrick Lamar and Drake.

Ryan Garcia Accuses Gervonta Davis Of Sleeping With Floyd Mayweather’s Daughter Yaya

Gervonta Davis and Floyd Mayweather’s feud continues to heat up, and Ryan Garcia recently hopped online to add fuel to the fire. Recently, Mayweather took to Instagram to throw shade at “young boxers,” which prompted Davis to respond. He took this as a direct shot at himself and quickly clapped back. He accused Mayweather of owing various other boxers money, alleging that he’s hiding out in Dubai to avoid paying what he owes.

Since then, Davis has shared various subliminal posts directed at Mayweather online, making it clear that he doesn’t plan to back down. 50 Cent even jumped in on the beef on Instagram this morning to make similar allegations. Now, Ryan Garcia has gotten involved, dropping some interesting allegations on Clubhouse.

“I already knew about it, once Gervonta f*cked Floyd Mayweather’s daughter,” he said. “That’s not even a secret, that’s not something I’m exposing.

While some fans are shocked by Garcia’s latest claim, others argue that it doesn’t come as a surprise, as it was previously speculated that the two were in a relationship. At the time, however, both of them denied it.

As for how Mayweather has responded to Davis’ accusations, he took to his Instagram Story last night to share a clip of the young athlete dancing. “We always knew he had sugar in his tank,” the caption reads.
