Nardo Wick’s Brother Reportedly Enters Insanity Plea Over Florida Burglary

by

Nardo Wick and his family are in a tough situation right now following his brother Hayward Biggins’ arrest for attempted burglary back in March. Moreover, Ring camera footage below is what allegedly identified Nardo’s brother as the shooter in this incident. While the rapper had nothing to do with this incident, his community still expressed outrage, as this burglary apparently took place near his home. Nevertheless, Biggins and his legal team reportedly filed for an insanity plea in this situation, which means that he seeks mental help in recovering from this incident but doesn’t think that he’s directly responsible or accountable for it given his struggles.

However, this isn’t the only contentious and dangerous situation involving one of Nardo Wick’s close associates these days. For example, some members of his entourage apparently beat up a young fan when he tried to ask for a picture, which drew a lot of controversy online. Many debated whether or not this was a proper response, and most people agreed that Nardo’s team took this way too far in this incident. Still, this is another situation that the Jacksonville MC had nothing to do with, and he quickly spoke out about this fan.

“I don’t condone what happened to my fan George after my show in any type of way,” Nardo Wick expressed on social media. “I expressed to him and his momma how sorry and concerned I am that it happened to him multiple times before anything [hit] the internet. And I sent his mama my number instantly the night it happened. And I was even gone make a post to find out who he was before his mama text me. I can’t control another grown man actions. I aint know that was gone happen and I was mad when it happened.”

At least those responsible turned themselves in for the attack, so it’s clear that they understood that something was very wrong here. Regardless, we’ll see whether a similar situation happened with this shooting case’s insanity plea and whether Nardo Wick will speak out about it again. In any case, hopefully these situations resolve themselves sooner rather than later for the sake of everyone involved.

Travis Scott Lets Kevin Durant Know That His Album “Utopia” Will Be “F***ing Insane”

by

Kevin Durant is one of many fans waiting patiently for Travis Scott’s next album, the highly anticipated UTOPIA. Moreover, he recently revealed during the latest episode of podcast The ETCs with Kevin Durant that Travis actually spoke to him about it. According to La Flame, UTOPIA might rank as one of his best projects yet, although we know very little about it. In fact, Travis moved with such secrecy and mystery regarding UTOPIA that even a star basketball player is finding access a bit difficult. Regardless, Durant said that he’s still trying to hear some snippets ahead of its launch.

“I didn’t hear it, and I want to ask for some songs,” the 34-year-old expressed. “But I know for a fact he won’t send them, so I might have to catch him in the studio one of these days before it comes out, but he’s telling me that it’s f***ing insane.” Of course, the “Road to UTOPIA” has been long, arduous, convoluted, and rarely updated until recent reports. Still, it remains one of the most anticipated projects of the year.

Kevin Durant On Travis Scott’s UTOPIA: “He’s Telling Me That It’s F***ing Insane”

Unfortunately, the rollout for this new album was cut short when ten people tragically lost their lives at the Astroworld Festival in 2021. Before that, the “goosebumps” rapper teased the project only through mentioning its name, whose futuristic allure got fans excited. Back in August of 2022, after many months of restraint, the artist announced a one-week residency at a Vegas nightclub. However, now things look much clearer, as Travis and other sources hinted towards the album’s soon-to-come drop.

“We have a new Travis Scott record, expected to come in June,” Epic Records CEO Sylvia Rhone said during an acceptance speech at Billboard‘s Women In Music event this year. Meanwhile, Scott outlined upcoming releases from his Cactus Jack camp, which could actually push UTOPIA back depending on how those prior releases go. “Sheck Wes, You Know The Scouts is on the way, we got Faygo about to put out a lil EP that’s on the way,” he said during an NBA All-Star Weekend event this year. “And right after that, UTOPIA. So we came here with that message and I can’t wait for these motherf***ers to drop this s**t.” Let us know if you’re looking forward to UTOPIA in the comments and come back to HNHH for the latest on Travis Scott and Kevin Durant.

Post Malone Borders On Unhinged In The ‘Insane’ Video

by

This past Friday, Post Malone released his fourth album, Twelve Carat Toothache. The fourteen track collection is a reflection of the “Sunflower” singer’s eclectic tastes and features a number of collaborations including “One Right Now” with The Weeknd, “Cooped Up” with Roddy Rich, “I Like You (A Happier Song)” with Doja Cat, and “Love/Hate Letter To Alcohol” with Fleet Foxes. The album explores the emotional wavelengths we’ve all been riding in the past two pandemic-addled years and it’s never for a lack of honesty from Malone.

Now, the rapper has just released the new video for “Insane,” and it sees Posty bordering on unhinged. In the clip, Malone is barefoot and wearing only his house pants in the evening poolside. He dances maniacally to the track, either mimicking inebriation or feeling himself after knocking back a few. He vigorously smokes a cigarette and puts his hand down the front of his pants multiple times a la Al Bundy. But if he’s teetering in the balance, he’s doing so in a sheerly blissful state throughout. It’s a pure expressionist moment from Posty as he cheekily raps lines like, “I got 20, 30 strippers in the Sprinter van / It’s a little cramped to try to teach me how to dance.”

Watch the video for “Insane ” above.

Twelve Carat Toothache is out now via Republic Records. Listen to it here.
