Joe Budden Refuses To Back Down During Caitlin Clark Vs. Angel Reese Debate

by

Joe Budden is someone who has never shied away from inserting himself into some pretty massive debates. Overall, Budden has a podcast, so talking is kind of his whole job at this point. With that in mind, fans always expect him to be unfiltered with his thoughts on a particular subject. Most recently, Budden gave his opinion on none other than Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese of the WNBA. Both of these players are rivals and are currently competing for Rookie of the Year.

While Reese was a bit better than Clark early in the season, Clark has proven to be the better overall player. She is now leading the ROTY race, and fans are excited to see her prove herself in the postseason as the Indiana Fever continues to win games. Meanwhile, on the latest episode of his podcast, Budden dove into the Clark and Reese debate. As you can see below, he believes it is no context, and that Clark is Jordan, while Reese is Rodman.

Joe Budden Keeps It Honest

“I’m telling y’all, and I’m not trying to cause a kerfuffle, Caitlin Clark is a hell of a lot better than Angel Reese,” Budden explained. “Nobody ever said Ben Wallace could give Michael Jordan a run for his money. And [Reese] is grabbing all the boards in the world — hey, the double-double princess — and she got a podcast now, and she got a Reese’s Pieces deal. I’m telling y’all that Caitlin Clark, if we’re talking about a basketball… she has been on an absolute warpath since y’all left her off the Olympics. And I’m not just gonna ignore it because she’s white. She is smoking you b****** out there.”

Let us know what you think of Joe’s comments, down below. Do you agree that Caitlin Clark has been better than Angel Reese so far this year? Do you believe that it is inevitable that Clark will end up winning rookie of the year? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Cavalier & Quelle Chris Drop Off “Shining Brighter” Featuring Pink Siifu & Denmark Vessey To DSPs

by

Two long-running names in Brooklyn’s underground hip-hop scene are back with a new single, as well as a new project. Those two MCs would happen to be Cavalier and Quelle Chris. They have quite the chemistry together, working on tons of songs and records since the mid-2010s. This week, Cavalier and Quelle Chris have put forth “Shining Brighter”. It’s a sampler from their newest endeavor, Death Tape 2 | We Gon’ Need Each Other. The inaugural Death Tape was an EP called Black Cottonwood, and initially, it was a website exclusive release that you had to buy. However, it is now available on streaming as of December 8, 2023, nearly a full year after it came out.

For Death Tape 2 | We Gon’ Need Each Other, though, it seems that Cavalier and Quelle will not be releasing it on DSPs at all. Instead, you can purchase it, like the original, for $16.00. Although, the first one was a dollar cheaper at $15.00. However, to quench some fans’ thirst, Quelle Chris and Cavalier are delivering “Shining Brighter” to Spotify and the like. The single features Pink Siifu, as well as another reoccurring guest in Denmark Vessey. In fact, the latter is actually labeled as the third lead artist for Death Tape 2 | We Gon’ Need Each Other. If you want to buy the project, click the first “[Via]” link down below. Like most Cavalier and Quelle records, “Shining Brighter” is another unconventional hip-hop track. This one features a very unique instrumental with piano melodies dominating the instrumental. Check out the single below with the YouTube link.

As we reported yesterday, Isaiah Chance was recently in court where he could be seen bobbing his head to Yungeen Ace’s music. Overall, Ace and Foolio were foes who had a long history between them.

Since Foolio’s passing, Yungeen Ace has sworn off dissing his formal rival, however, he has gone back on that promise a few times, or so it seems. As for this case, it appears as though it is going to trial and could take a long time before any justice is seen.

by

Pat Mahomes Sr., father of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback and two time Super Bowl champion Patrick Mahomes who himself is a former MLB pitcher, pleaded guilty to his third DWI offense at Smith County Court in Texas.

Let’s not judge but sheesh, Mr. Mahomes needs help. His son has a $500 million dollar contract with three rings. He has a bunch of grandkids. Like, what’s up?

Anyway, the 54-year-old faces a third-degree felony charge.

Get this, he is expected to receive five years’ probation, with the possibility of up to 10 years in prison if he violates the terms of his probation.

ICYMI, Mahomes Sr., who was arrested before Super Bowl LVIII, has had a history of legal troubles related to driving under the influence. In 2018, he pleaded guilty to a DWI charge and served 40 days in jail. His criminal record also includes a 2014 charge for possession of an open alcoholic container in a vehicle, which resulted in a fine.

Mahomes Sr. who had a lengthy MLB career, is scheduled to be sentenced on September 23. He also faces an upcoming pre-trial hearing in October for driving with an invalid license.

Gotta hand it to Patty Mahomes Jr. He is one of the greatest NFL players ever and his pops is literally the definition of a distraction. Hopefully they all figure this out.

Netflix has released the first trailer for Tyler Perry’s upcoming World War II film, “The Six Triple Eight”. The film, written and directed by Perry, is based on the true story of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, the first and only all-Black Women’s Army Corps unit to serve overseas during the war.

Let’s make no mistake, the WACs were vital to the war effort. The most important war this country ever fought. That part.

Leading the charge is Kerry Washington starring as Major Charity Adams, the battalion’s commanding officer. It’s an ensemble cast that includes Ebony Obsidian, Milauna Jackson, and Kylie Jefferson, among others, with appearances by Susan Sarandon, Dean Norris, and Oprah Winfrey.

“The Six Triple Eight” tells the story of these unsung heroes who overcame racism, sexism, and grueling working conditions to serve their country. Despite facing numerous obstacles, they were determined to deliver hope and shatter barriers. 

Here’s the official rundown:

“THE SIX TRIPLE EIGHT is inspired by the first and only Women’s Army Corps unit of color to serve overseas in WWII. Despite facing racism and sexism – and grueling working conditions – they were committed to serving their country with honor and distinction. Given an extraordinary mission and united in their determination, these unsung heroes delivered hope and shattered barriers.”

Behind the camera the film is produced by Perry alongside Nicole Avant, Angi Bones, and others, the film will feature an original song titled “The Journey” by Diane Warren, performed by H.E.R., with choreography by Debbie Allen. “The Six Triple Eight” is set for a limited theatrical release on December 6, followed by a Netflix premiere on December 20.

Sounds like an important story. Let’s see how Perry tells it.

Today In Hip Hop History: Junior Mafia Released Their Debut Album ‘Conspiracy Theory’ 29 Years Ago

TodayinHipHopHistory:JuniorMafiaReleasesTheirDebutAlbum'ConspiracyTheory'YearsAgo

On this date in 1995, the hometown crew of Notorious B.I.G. aka Biggie Smalls, which was composed of Lil’ Kim, Lil’ Cease, Nino Brown, Chico Del Vec, Kleptomaniac, Capone, Bugsy and Trife and Larceny of The Snakes, who called themselves Junior Mafia, dropped their first album entitled Conspiracy Theory on the Undeas/Atlantic imprint.

With Biggie being one of the first East Coast artists to put his homies on from his Bed-Stuy block, Conspiracy Theory served up a suffix of hits featuring the “King Of NY,” which helped to further catapult his stardom, but introduce an entire crew of microphone astute Brooklyn kids that launched an entire movement of their own. JM also introduced a female emcee from BK that would forever change the landscape of Hip-Hop for women; Lil’ Kim.

Some of the sure shot singles from this monumental project include “Player’s Anthem” featuring Notorious B.I.G. and Lil’ Kim, “I Need You Tonight” featuring Biggie’s then-wife Faith Evans and of course the anthemic “Get Money”.

Salute to Junior Mafia, Lil’ Cease, Lil’ Kim, “Un” Rivera and the entire Junior Mafia squad for dropping this eternal Hip-Hop classic!

Keefe D Denied Bond Again In Tupac Murder Trial, Judge Suspects Illegitimate Bail Money

by
Screenshot 2024 08 29 at 7.20.32 AM

Reputed gang member Duane “Keefe D” Davis has been denied bond once again in the ongoing Tupac Shakur murder trial, with the judge suspecting that the bail money could be ill gotten gains.

Clark District Court Judge Carli Kierny rendered her decision yesterday(August 27), mentioning that the $750K that Cash Jones aka Wack 100 offered to put up for Davis’ bond could launch an investigation.

“I have a sense that things are trying to be covered up,” Kierny said.

Judge Kierny stated that she got two nearly identical letters from the entertainment company that Wack said had sent him the money, but one of the letters was signed by someone with no affiliation to the aforementioned business. Kierny had previously denied Davis’ bond because she contended that he and Wack could possibly profit off Davis’ life story.

Wack admitted to putting up 15% of the $750K, but says that the offer wasn’t based on any previously agreed upon business dealings. Prosecutors later uncovered an interview with VladTV from earlier this summer, where Jnes talked about capitalizing on Davis’ story.

“It’s only $75,000,” he said in the clip. “I’ve been thinking about going to get him with the stipulations that I’ll do the series on it.”

In his defense, the 44-year-old record exec told the court, “That’s what I said to Vlad, but Keefe D is already involved with somebody. I have no contracts with him. Before you go on Vlad, you have a discussion about what you’re going to talk about and what needs to be said to draw up views. There’s nothing about Vlad and nothing about YouTube that says that we’re being truthful about what we’re saying for entertainment.”

Keefe D, who has been diagnosed with cancer, is the only person to ever be charged with Tupac’s 1996 killing in Las Vegas 27 years ago. Despite pleading not guilty, he claimed that he planned the shooting several times, including in his book Compton Street Legend released in 2019.

After Ludacris Drinks Glacier Water in Alaska, Scientist Says He’ll Be Fine

by

ICYMI, Ludacris caused a stir online when he posted a video of himself drinking untreated water from an Alaska glacier. 

I think what’s really funny is how he was dressed like he just popped out for a cook out on a 65 degree spring day with a varsity jacket, jeans etc. Ge said he had on ice cleats but dude was on a GLACIER. Like, c’mon.

Anyways …

Fans expressed concern that he could contract the parasite giardia, which can cause serious illness. 

Yikes. But scientist-ing by tweet ins’t so scientific tbh.

Okay here’s the SCIENCE behind giardia. Symptoms of giardiasis can be serious. They include diarrhea, stomach cramps and dehydration. Ick. Then it can spread from one person to another. This happens through contaminated water, food and or surfaces. The Centers for Disease Control Prevention aka the CDC, remember those folks that fought for us during the pandemic, suggests people should avoid swallowing water while swimming and always boiling it or filter the water from lakes, springs or rivers before drinking it to prevent getting sick with well, giardia.

However, glaciologist Martin Truffer from the University of Alaska in Fairbanks dismissed these worries, calling the concerns “ludicrous.” Ha. See how he did that.

Truffer explained that drinking water from a melt stream on a glacier is one of the cleanest sources of water available. Gotcha.

“He’s totally fine,” Truffer said, adding, “There’s just really no concern on these glacial streams about safety.” 

Ludacris, who was in Alaska to perform at the state fair, described the glacier water as “the best tasting water I’ve ever had in my life.” Is that right?

The rapper explored Knik Glacier and later joked about being a “water snob” in a video before his Minneapolis concert.

While the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention advise against drinking untreated water from natural sources due to risks like giardia, Truffer assured that glacier water is exceptionally pure. Well, let’s decide for ourselves.

Giardia from untreated glacier water, or nah?

SEE IT: Jimmy Butler to Star in New Netflix Docuseries ‘Starting 5’ Alongside LeBron James, Anthony Edwards and Others

by

Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler will be featured in a new Netflix documentary series titled “Starting 5”, set to premiere on October 9.

Gotta admit, this looks fire.

The series will provide an inside look at the lives of several NBA stars, including LeBron James, Anthony Edwards, Jayson Tatum, and Domantas Sabonis.

Kinda overdo, a show like this but if you don’t know the NBA is super strict with authorizing access to the teams, and hence the stars during the season. Brand protection and it makes sense.

“Starting 5” will go beyond game footage, showcasing behind-the-scenes moments from the players’ daily lives, both on and off the court. Like Hard Knocks but multiple teams and focused on stars only.

Butler, known for his vibrant personality and media day antics, including last year’s viral “Emo Jimmy” hairstyle, will likely captivate viewers with his off-court endeavors.

The series may also delve into Butler’s various side projects, including his coffee brand “Big Face Coffee,” his appearances in commercials and music videos, and his passion for sports like soccer and tennis. He’s gonna be a riot.

As the Miami Heat prepare for the upcoming season, fans can look forward to getting a closer look at Butler’s life through this highly anticipated Netflix series.

Well here’s the trailer:
