One of the Internet’s new favorite words these days is “rizz,” although it’s probably already old to some people at this point. Regardless, it means “charisma” in the basic sense, and it’s a meme these days because… it’s a funny word, how could it not be? Regardless, Chris Brown recently posted a video on Instagram labeling himself a “Rizz God,” whatever that means. Of course, the singer’s recent investigations, resurfaced allegations, and online reckoning contradict any shred of charisma. However, as he continues to tour around the world and find fans at every turn, his statement is unfortunately undeniable.
Furthermore, the R&B star’s been in the middle of a lot of backlash and controversy these past few weeks. It all started, seemingly, when Chlöe announced a collab with him. After fans responded with Brown’s history of abuse and violence, he went on various rants and beefed with everyone from Kiely Williams to a gaggle of white celebrities that he posted online. In fact, things seem to balance out between an accusation or attack at him, and waves of defensive fans online. Despite the negativity and adoration, Brown seems to sit comfortably in the middle, letting it all phase by. This newest video, for example, is really just him having fun and nothing more.
For those of you unfamiliar, the video references some TikTok audios and challenges that “show you how to flirt.” Hence, the “Look At Me Now” star’s exaggerated facial expressions and overacting come off quite comical. However, nothing could’ve really predicted that Chris Brown would one day call himself a “Rizz God,” even though that’s exactly what he would do. While it’s often funny to see celebrities tap into viral trends or lingo, the polarizing conversation around him makes it tough to fully enjoy.
Still, he’ll continue his Europe tour dates throughout March, where fans can see the “rizz” for themselves. As an excellent overall performer, it should be a treat for his fans. However, it seems like more and more people are getting tired of his antics, so time will tell how his career legacy evolves. With that in mind, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Chris Brown.
A feud is brewing in the producer world between Hitmaka and Hit-Boy. It began on Wednesday during Hitmaka and Jim Jones’ press run for Back In My Prime when they appeared on Hot97. During the conversation, Hitmaka said that he’s a better producer because he’s on the radio more often. “I’m on the radio. Hit-Boy not on the radio,” Hitmaka said. “If you play the soundtrack to your life for the past four, five years on radio – I know it’s gotta be frustrating with ‘em my name is so similar, my brother.”
During the same interview, Jim Jones backed Hitmaka and suggested the two go hit-for-hit in a Verzuz battle. However, it seems like Hit-Boy has little interest in entertaining a battle so instead, he took his issues to the booth where he called out Hitmaka, and a few other producers. “I just seen Yung Berg smoke on the wave/ I should do him like Trick Trick and snatch Hit out his name,” he raps. “I’m like Debo on this cruiser/ How you got no credits without co-producers.”
After Hit-Boy lashed out on wax, Hitmaka immediately slipped into the comment section where he expressed his disappointment. Hitmaka was far from impressed by Hit-Boy’s upcoming diss track, especially since he felt the references and bars sounded dated. “This is nasty and punchlines from over a decade ago,” he wrote. Hitmaka added that the diss record won’t land Hit-Boy on regular radio rotation. “Still won’t be on radio I expect from u king,” the 37-year-old producer added.
Following a four-hour period of listening to Hit-Boy’s snippet on loop, Hitmaka made it abundantly clear that he thought it was a weak attempt at a diss track. He said that he felt as though Hit-Boy was attempting to mimic Kendrick’s verse on Big Sean’s “Control.” “Is this your like attempt to do whatever Kendrick did on that big Sean record for producers???” He wrote. “U ARE A TERRIBLE ARTIST. SEND ME BEATS PLS.” Hit-Boy has yet to fireback at Hitmaka’s latest comments, though it doesn’t seem like everyone agrees with the “Thot Box” producer’s assessment. Check out Hitmaka’s comments above.
SZA wowed fans with a stunning fit that showed off her body for her recent show in Atlanta. Moreover, her tour faced a bit of hiccups along the way, but still remains an overwhelming success for the SOS star. For this recent show, she donned a full dress with another body on it and behind it, with varying shades of blue, yellow, and red. It’s quite the colorful and stylish look, with even Cardi B complimenting her body on Instagram. In fact, the “WAP” hitmaker showed SZA some love just a couple of days after popping out at one of her shows.
Also, the “Kill Bill” singer took to Instagram to thank ATL and clear up some confusion around her Philly show. “Atlanta owes me NOTHING !” the 33-year-old captioned a recap post of the show. “Only 9 more shows left to go ! thank you so much SOS tour #SOLDOUT I ain’t even know the music cut off [crying emoji].” That last comment refers to her audio cutting out during her performance of “Love Galore,” but the crowd still screamed and sang along, keeping the energy up.
“Philly the concert is gonna be THIS YEAR not 2025,” she added in the comments. “lol the date is already settled I dunno why Ticketmaster sent that !” Even with those small bumps in the road, everyone seems to be loving the TDE artist’s latest live outings. For example, at this recent Atlanta show, Yung Miami was one of a few stars who went to enjoy the spectacle. Furthermore, fans spotted the City Girl dancing along to her performance, where even the slowest song becomes a banger with the rest of the crowd pouring their heart out.
Meanwhile, success just seems to build, and build, and build commercially for SZA’s latest album. SOS recently spent its tenth week atop the Billboard 200 chart, a remarkable feat for any artist. Considering the near-six-year gap in between this albumand Ctrl, its longevity isn’t surprising, but nevertheless impressive. After all, when fans wait over five years for something and it’s this good, how could they not make up for lost time? Regardless, as always, come back to HNHH for the latest news and updates on SZA.
Iggy Azalea is catering to her skater fans in a new thirst trap promoting her OnlyFans, which she posted to Instagram on Wednesday (March 8). Moreover, in the picture, she crouches with a skateboard next to her, which has a red-tinted picture of her on the back. Also, she wears a leathery lingerie set and stares at the camera, as if to dare fans to enter a new giveaway. “Hotter than hell skate deck & display case competition just went live on my OF,” she wrote in the caption. “This deck is 1/1 [fire emoji]. Winner in 48hrs!”
Furthermore, Azalea recently detailed the success of her adult platform, and also the weird requests she’s gotten along the way. “They’ll send me like six hundred dollars just to send a voice note,” she told Andy Cohen. “Like, ‘I’d never suck your disgusting little f***ing d**k! Is that even a d**k? I wouldn’t even let my dog lick that d**k.’ They’ll be like, ‘Goddess Iggy. Please, please, please, please. I know that you don’t have time for my tiny little thing, but please can you just tell me what you think about it?”’ And don’t you f*cking message me again unless you give me fifty dollars next time.”
Iggy Azalea Reaches Skater Crowd In OnlyFans Thirst Trap
Sure, that might seem like a little much from the “Fancy” artist, but she spoke to Emily Ratajkowski about finally having some agency over her money after years in the industry. As such, it’s understandable that she’d treat success with such power. “I’ve made a lot of people so much money off my body,” Azalea told the model. “I got the smallest cut off my own f***ing body, and my own work, and my own ideas. It’s been commodified and I wasn’t even the main f***ing benefactor of it. So, f**k this,” and with that in mind, she started her OnlyFans to have more agency of her profits.
Regardless of what you think of Iggy’s move, at the very least it draws all that money into her pocket. Behind-the-scenes industry movements can get incredibly murky. Even with those pressures weighing down on her, the mother of one will likely continue to see success. Still, whatever life brings her next, stick around on HNHH for the latest on Iggy Azalea.
The news about Shawn Kemp has earned a reaction from just about everyone, including 50 Cent. Following Kemp’s Wednesday night arrest and the footage that emerged afterward, the Internet erupted with opinions, memes, and general reactions. However, 50 Cent’s response to the arrest of Shawn Kemp was less humorous. The Power EP shared a headline surrounding Kemp’s felony arrest, urging people not to jump to conclusions. “I don’t know what’s going on here, but don’t judge this brother till all the facts come out,” 50 Cent wrote on Instagram.
Fif’s post earned a few reactions from his peers in the rap world. Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith, CEO of Top Dawg Entertainment, shared a flurry of laughing emojis. “@50cent the NBA got some real shooters out there,” he wrote. Meanwhile, Fat Joe left five laughing emojis at the bottom of the page. Many fans also left comments comparing Kemp’s situation to Ja Morant, who the Grizzlies confirmed would be away from the team for at least four more games following his Instagram Live debacle.
Police booked Shawn Kemp on Wednesday afternoon around 2 p.m. after reports of gunfire at the Tacoma Mall. The former Sonics player was taken into the Pierce County jail on a felony drive-by charge and no bail has been set yet. Police said they responded to a call after gunshots were fired between the occupants of two different vehicles. They said one individual, who they initially described as a 53-year-old, fired shots at the other vehicle before the alleged victims fled the scene. Police also recovered a gun on the scene.
Around the time of his arrest, footage of the altercation emerged online. A man in a red jacket appears to be arguing with a man in the video. At this point, the individual in the red jacket tries to pull away from them. Another video appeared to show a man raising his arm before alleged gunshots rang out. We’ll keep you posted on any more updates surrounding Kemp’s case. Check out 50 Cent’s comments on Kemp’s situation above and sound off in the comments with your thoughts.
It’s been two years since the world received the heartbreaking news of DMX’s passing. In April of 2021, the beloved rapper suffered a fatal heart attack and passed away surrounded by family at White Plains Hospital. The Ruff Ryders have announced an event in his honor, an “NYC Ryde Out”. A save-the-date flyer was shared on the official Ruff Ryders Instagram account with the caption “On April 9th please join the Ruff Ryders Family as we celebrate and remember our brother DMX and all our fallen Soldiers with our NYC Ryde Out!”.
A “Celebration of Life Memorial” was previously held for Earl Simmons on April 24th, 2021. Close friends and family gathered at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn to send the rapper off in love. Hours before the service, X’s casket was transported in a monster truck that read “Long Live DMX” on the side. The Ruff Ryders bike crew followed behind in numbers in a sentimental yet action-packed scene. Whereas his memorial service was limited to family due to Covid-19, the crew invites the public out to celebrate their fallen soldier.
Initially, the Ruff Ryders began as management for DMX and The Lox. After signing with Def Jam, Ruff Ryders Entertainment, the label. The roster includes Swizz Beatz, Eve, Cassidy, and more. Besides the music, Ruff Ryders is a motorcycle club and a group that has stood in solidarity with The Darkman. Their impact on the culture runs deep as their love for their comrade. Today, Ruff Ryders Lifestyle is very active in the community and various social spaces.
The “Ryde Out” event is scheduled for April 9th, on the two-year anniversary of X’s death. The group invites fans and friends to bring their loved ones for a day of “food, fun games and music”. The comments are full of fans eager to celebrate a rapper who is, without a doubt, a legend in the game. For more information about the ride out check the flyer on the Ruff Ryder’s official Instagram. The Ruff Ryders will announce more details about the event in the near future.
For about two years now, Latto and 21 Savage have been a mystery to us all. After countless clues and speculations, the Atlanta rappers continue to deny they are in a relationship. The “Lottery” artist tries to keep her personal life private while the Slaughtergang CEO is never one to talk much. Hence, who knows if they are together? However, there’s plenty of evidence that shows at some point they were in each other’s lives.
First, rumors started in December of 2020 when both artists posted pictures in what looked like the same location. Neither party confirmed, but fans were adamant they were together. Two years later, eyes are still on them, and they both remain that they are not in a relationship. Here’s what we know about Latto and 21 Savage during the past few years.
21 Savage reposted a picture of Latto on his Instagram story. In the photo, it looks like Latto just left the Hermes store as she is walking with a Hermes bag, throwing up the peace sign. She is all smiles looking at the camera in a comfortable outfit.
The “a lot” rapper couldn’t keep his thoughts to himself as he wanted to express his admiration for her. He posted the picture with the message: “No makeup [heart eyes emojis] dam u fine it’s only 1 way I can come bout you twin [crying laughing face emoji]”. Immediately, Savage deleted the post, but it was too late as fans started to speculate. Many accused them of lying about their relationship as both rappers continue to deny being together.
April 2021-Fans see 21 Savage’s shadow in Latto photo
Latto yet again hit the Gram up with a few alluring photos. The Queen of Da Souf rapper posted the pictures with the caption, “He love it here.” It’s interesting she uses the caption as there is clearly a man taking these photos. In one of the pictures, you can see a shadow of the photographer.
Fans picked up on this and determined the photographer to be 21 Savage. It is said to be the Atlanta rapper because of the silhouette’s hair. Latto’s comments were flooded with fans saying it has to be 21. Obviously, neither party confirmed the rumor.
July 2021-Latto addresses Dream Doll’s “Tryout”
Bronx rapper Dream Doll released a song titled, “Tryouts”. In this song, she mentions and shows love to many female rappers in Hip Hop. Latto was included on the list as she had a few lines for the “Big Energy” artist. She raps, “And Mulatto, yeah, that’s my lil’ honey bun/Asked her how many times she came, she said, ’21 21’.”
Nice wordplay from Dream Doll as she puts together both rappers and also, ends it with Savage’s adlib. Although Latto didn’t say much about the song, she had nothing but praises for Dream Doll.
“I think Dream Doll is dope, and I’m so proud of her elevation. She comes from a reality TV show. I come from a reality TV show so it’s like I’m rooting for her.”
21 Savage has not made a comment on the song either. Honestly, either Dream Doll knows something, or it’s just rap. You decide.
On his 29th birthday, 21 Savage received a special birthday cake. Evidently, the NSFW cake was heart-shaped with a note that read, “Lemme suck that d***”. Hence, once fans saw this, they immediately pointed the finger to Latto. The “Bank Account” rapper also showed off his room which was decorated with red balloons and roses as well as lit candles spelling 21.
Per usual, Savage is tight-lipped and did not reveal who did this for him. Fans are accusing Latto of this stating that the message on the note is something she would say. The 777 rapper might be keeping this her little secret or maybe she didn’t do this at all. We can only wonder.
December 2021: 21 Attends Latto Birthday Party
21 Savage attends Latto’s 23rd birthday party. It was a celebration to say the least as the Clayco County rapper was gifted a brand new Richard Mille watch to go with a brand new Lambroghini. Furthermore, a fireworks display was also a part of the night.
Fans assumed the “Jimmy Cooks” rapper put together the fireworks show and brought her the lavish gifts. Latto was overwhelmed with excitement as 21 looked on. He attended the party in theme, dressed as a Cowboy.
March 2022: “Wheelie”
Latto collaborated with 21 Savage for their second song together, “Wheelie”. They last collaborated on “Pull Up” off Latto’s debut album, Queen of Da Souf. “Wheelie” comes with a video and is the second single off her sophomore project, 777.
Even though she was on tour opening up for Lizzo, Latto still managed to attend 21 Savage’s 30th birthday party. It was a “Freaknik” themed event with many stars in attendance. After he attended her birthday party, Latto returns the favor.
December 2022: 21 Savage Denies Relationship
21 Savage speaks on his status in a conversation on Clubhouse.
“I’ve been hot for a long time. I don’t do all the antics and s***. I don’t got a celebrity girlfriend.”
You have to look at the key word here. The 30 year old rapper said he doesn’t have a “celebrity” girlfriend. That may mean he does have a girlfriend, but she isn’t famous. Latto is one of the hottest artists out, so, maybe he isn’t in a relationship with her.
January 2023: 21 Lil Harold Slips Up
Slaughtergang artist 21 Lil Harold sat down with Hot 107.9 where he got caught up in a sneaky question. He was asked if he has someone in his corner like 21 Savage has Latto. The young artist somewhat agreed with the radio host before realizing what he did. MiAsia, the host, continued to ask if 21 Lil Harold thought the rumored couple were cute, to which he agreed.
”They cute together, but….them folks, they single. They friends.”
February 2023: Rhonnie Lee Confirms; “Sheyaa” tattoo
Celebrity stylist Rhonnie Lee confirmed that Latto and 21 Savage have been dating for years. Lee has styled many artists and now styles Moneybagg Yo. On Instagram, one user questioned why the two rappers have admitted their relationship to the public. Lee replied that they love each other.
“They’re together have been for years now! Not something I heard something I KNOW! This woman he loves her & Vice verse!”
She sure seems confident, but no one confirmed this to be true.
Recently, it looks like Latto has a new tattoo. Behind her ear, she has the word “Sheyaa” tattooed. 21 Savage’s legal first name is Sheyaa. This is all fans needed to see as they took to social media to discuss the tattoo.
Let us know if you think Latto and 21 Savage are in a real relationship in the comments.
Nia Long sent fans into a frenzy with her latest Instagram thirst trap. The You People actress posted from vacation in Japan and it has the internet in a chokehold. Aside from her wildly successful, long-lived career, Long is known for being absolutely stunning. In the words of JT, all she has to do is “post a pic and make ’em sick”…literally. Seemingly nude and according to her caption “in her element”, Nia Long has viewers in a daze, and rightfully so.
Nia has had a very busy past few months as she starred in two films released within days of the other. In January,You Peopledebuted at #1 on Netflix, and Missing was also met with success. Back in September, news of her then-fiance Ime Udoka’s affair was made public and it reportedly had a “devastating impact” on her family. Needless to say, some downtime was needed and Nia long clearly took the opportunity to let her hair down. The post has racked up nearly 300 thousand likes and counting.
Since the Boyz n the Hood star’s break up, fans have been trying to figure out her relationship status. Dating rumors sparked after she was seen walking hand in hand with R&B singer Omarion at the premiere for “You People”. She quickly shut down speculations with a public disclaimer, “Everybody simmer down… I’m single AF”. She told The Cut that she currently has no interest in a serious relationship, despite the public interest. She said, “My mind is not even there at all. I want to go out and have amazing, important, deep, thoughtful conversations.”
As one user expressed in the comments, Nia is “the only reason to have an IG account today.” The love is loud and overflowing for the Fatal Affair star. What we have all known since the 90s still rings true, Nia Long is one of the most beautiful women of our time. As for a relationship, she just wants to “enjoy the moment”. She told The Cut, “For the last 22 years, I’ve been pouring out. But at a certain point, you’re like, Woo, I’m looking a little tired. Even if I can’t see it, I can feel it. So I try to pour into myself and let everyone know this is a ‘do not disturb’ period.”
2023 is already shaping up to be an undoubtedly big year for Power actor Rotimi, who welcomed his second child with fiancée Vanessa Mdee days ago. He shared the exciting news with fans on social media, not holding back while expressing his obvious joy and love for his family. Their latest arrival is named Imani and comes less than two years after their first, Seven, was born in September 2021.
As ESSENCE notes, it was at the outlet’s festival that the lovers previously met in 2019. At the time, Rotimi brought another woman along as his date but wound up leaving her behind in favour of Mdee, who was living in Tanzania at the time. Once their relationship became serious, she made the move to Atlanta to be closer to her famous partner. “I feel like we’ve been together for lifetimes,” the 34-year-old explained back in 2020.

“So, this is just this body and I just met her again on this earth. It felt like that from day one, and I’ve never had a connection that instantly. [I told her] I don’t want you to go back to Africa. I want you to stay with me,” Rotimi added, revealing the undeniably deeply romantic nature of their connection. Throughout their relationship, he’s regularly given Mdee her flowers, especially when it comes to carrying and mothering his children.
On Monday (March 6), the “In My Bed” hitmaker was happy to let social media know that he’s finally a father of two. “I Still Can’t Wrap My Mind Around To Think I’m Here To Announce The Beautiful Birth Of My Daughter Imani,” Rotimi’s heartfelt caption reads. “I’m Overwhelmed With Love Today @vanessamdee You Are Nothing Short Of A Superhero! Our Second Child Together & Seven Now Has A Little Sister To Watch Over,” he added before thanking God for the beautiful blessings in his life as well.
After recovering from giving birth to Imani, Mdee also had some sweet content to post. In a video, we see each member of their growing family put one hand down at a time, from biggest to smallest, reminding the world that they’re now four instead of three. “What shall I render to JEHOVA? FATHER GOD JESUS CHRIST MASTER HOLY SPIRIT THANKYOU YOU’VE BEEN SOOOOOOO GOOD TO ME,” she expressed her gratitude.
