J Prince Believes It’s ‘A Good Idea’ That NBA YoungBoy Takes Drake Off His ‘Enemy List’

Despite being on house arrest in Utah, Baton Rouge rapper YoungBoy Never Broke Again has been menacing the rap world for the past several weeks, taunting would-be rivals like Lil Durk, Soulja Boy, and Drake. And while it appears they’ve mostly ignored his attention-baiting antics, there’s at least one person who took him seriously enough to take action.

However, unfortunately for fans of rap beef, J. Prince decided to put YoungBoy and Drake on a video chat to see if they could work out their differences. The Houston rap impresario posted a photo of himself with the young rapper, detailing how he encouraged him to take Drake off his “enemy list.”

“As you all can see, I had a good time kicking it with the homies in Utah,” he wrote.

On behalf of the lil Homie YB, me and my brother Birdman were able to have a real conversation face to face. We talked about the past, the present, and the future. But most importantly, we left each other with a mutual respect moving forward. Even though I wasn’t there for a meeting with bird man I must say the lord works in mysterious ways. With that being said, I must address the song where my name and drakes name were mentioned. To the lil homie, as I said to you privately, I say to you publicly that Drake is my son, he roll with me. Therefore, I think it’s a good idea to take him off your enemy list because the truth of the matter is that we got nothing but love for [Lil] Durk and your accomplishments. When I put Drake on that facetime call with you, my intent was for y’all to move forward, not backward. “Two things we get every day is a chance and a choice. The choices we make determine our destination.

The trouble appeared to stem from NBA YoungBoy’s new mixtape, Richest Opp, which featured the song “F**K The Industry Pt. 2.” The “How To Rob”-style track found the prolific spitter calling out names. While most of his ire was directed at Lil Durk, it seemed Drake’s association with the Chicago rapper was enough to earn a dismissive bar or two.

“B*tch, I send them hitters to hit at you, boy, don’t say sh*t to me / Talk to Drake ‘cross FaceTime, he wasn’t feelin’ me,” he raps on the song. “Told me that he f*ck with Durk, damn, that sh*t was gettin’ to me / Told me that he like the sh*t I’m doin’, but can’t do sh*t with me / So when we cross our ways, f*ck what you say, b*tch, you my enemy.”

To be fair, Drake already takes enough heat for his associations with Chris Brown and Baka Not Nice, one of whom is on his label. With YoungBoy’s seeming inability to keep himself out of trouble for 6 consecutive months at a time, that’s one collab the Canadian just might continue to avoid.

Lil Durk Says J. Cole Feature “Went Crazy” Despite Not Being Into Lyrical Rap

Despite just being a single, “All My Life” from Lil Durk and J. Cole is already one fo hip-hop’s biggest moments of 2023. Whether it’s fan acclaim or other artists giving them their flowers, everybody emerged with exceeded expectations from this collab, which were already high. What’s more is that Smurk himself has already talked about what the feature means to him and how it impacted him. During a recent interview with RapCaviar, he remarked on how Cole didn’t even have to go that hard for the collab. Fortunately, it ended up with one of the more notable verses of the year from both MCs.

“Nah he went crazy,” Lil Durk expressed when it came to J. Cole’s feature. “I had to listen to it like four times. You know I ain’t super big on lyricist-type rappers. With Cole, [he] was one of the ones, like him and Jay, you gotta play them 50 times to catch what they’re saying. Like, if you listen to Lil Wayne right now, and you heard some s**t ten years ago that you just catch onto today. But he definitely gave me one of them verses and I appreciate it. ‘Cause he ain’t even have to, for real. He could’ve gave us anything.

Lil Durk On J. Cole’s “All My Life” Verse

Of course, this isn’t the first time that the Chicago MC spoke on J. Cole’s greatness on that track. “The number one thing, he smoked my a** on that, for one,” Lil Durk admitted. “Barely. That barely happens. But shoutout to Cole, shoutout to [Dr.] Luke. We made it happen.” In addition, other rappers like 21 Savage also had a lot of praise for the North Carolina spitter’s contributions in particular.

“Cole just went so crazy on that verse wtf,” the Atlanta MC wrote on Twitter. Furthermore, a lot of fans also had much to say about the Almost Healed artist’s lyrical display and thematic cohesion. It’s not like those traits are rare for The Voice, but they are always a treat to see when contrasted with his grittier and more boastful bars. For more updates on J. Cole and the latest news from Lil Durk, log back into HNHH.

6ix9ine Clowned Online For Gay Porn Star Lookalike Confusion

6ix9ine was not in gay porn, but that’s not what trolls online would have you believe. The controversial rapper is known for his colorful appearance and crazy antics. He often makes headlines for his outlandish behavior. Sometimes, it’s for making statements people think are ridiculous. Other times, it’s because of his continued use of slurs. However, he found himself trending online for an unexpected reason recently. Apparently, 6ix9ine bears an extremely strong resemblance to a gay porn star.

The hilarious incident unfolded on Twitter, of course. An explicit video featuring a porn actor who bore a striking physical resemblance to the Brooklyn rapper began to circulate on the platform. Although the video has since been deleted, it sparked further discussion about 6ix9ine’s sexuality. Fans who jumped in on the conversation shared a photo of the real rapper kissing another man on the cheek. This led to conversations and trolling surrounding the rapper’s sexual orientation, adding to the viral moment and the online buzz surrounding him.

6ix9ine Offered $50 Million To Fight Lil Durk

Unfortunately, 6ix9ine’s offer to fight Lil Durk probably didn’t help the situation much. In fact, some were already trolling the rapper about his sexuality for his comments on the situation. It all started when Durk offered 6ix9ine $50 million to settle their beef in the ring. “I don’t want you hurt or dead you a kid from the burbs I got 50 million my own money without help to fight you on tv in dubi, we can double the money 3 rounds,” Lil Durk wrote in a DM to the Brooklyn rapper. However, 6ix9ine wasn’t having any of it. He said that Durk was only asking him to do it because he had an album to promote.

“It’s so funny because I know you on album press run,” 6ix9ine said in response. “U need anything to promote this album since nba young boy not biting the bait. But I wanna fight you for now money pussy. For Free. Come to Miami let’s get a hotel room and just throw down 1 on 1.” Lil Durk, of course, declined the offer. Many fans pointed out that it was odd that 6ix9ine said they should meet in a hotel room. What do you think of the latest round of trolling that the rapper is experiencing? Let us know in the comments below!

Lil Durk Attends Swearing In Ceremony For New Chicago Mayor

Lil Durk has been making moves to make lives better. Last week, Lil Durk and J. Cole finally released their collaboration, “All My Life.” Interestingly, some speculated that this track could potentially become Lil Durk’s first number-one hit. The two rappers also filmed a music video for the song, which features a chorus of children singing the hook. The single’s production was helmed by renowned pop producer Dr. Luke.

In the song, Lil Durk reflects on his journey to fame and his determination to reshape public perception of him. In an interview with XXL, Durk expressed that the track serves as a reflection of his recent experiences and his desire for personal growth. Additionally, he discussed the challenge of finding the right artist to feature on the song. Durk explained, “Dr. Luke produced it. We were just trying to figure out who would be the perfect fit for the second verse… I feel like Cole can bring the energy that I’m looking for to it.” The song is a marked change and very much the opposite direction of Durk’s supposed rival, NBA YoungBoy. The rapper seems to be focusing on the betterment of his life and the lives of those around him.

Durk Shows Up In Support Of The New Mayor Of Chicago

Recently, it was reported that Lil Durk had met with the mayor-elect of Chicago. While some suggested that this might be part of album promotion, the rapper was clear that it had nothing to do with his music. “It ain’t album promo it’s saving kids lives,” Durk said in a comment on a picture of himself and the Chicago mayor-elect. Well, at the very least, it looks as though the two forged some sort of connection in their initial meeting.

Today, Lil Durk attended the swearing in ceremony for the new Chicago mayor. The two posed for pictures together after the event. In the post above from DJ Akademiks’ Instagram, the rapper shakes the mayor’s hand and makes small talk with the politician and his staff. It is unclear what the two have planned after their meeting and Durk’s subsequent visit to the ceremony. However, it does seem that the rapper wants to do everything he can to improve the lives of Chicago’s children. What do you think of Lil Durk’s new venture? Let us know in the comments!

Lil Durk Alleges That Record Labels Have Tried To Pay Him To ‘Beef With’ Other Rappers For Promotion

Lil Durk is almost healed from the past traumas of losing his friends and family to gun violence, or so his forthcoming album’s title suggests. But, unfortunately, in hip-hop, beef is what moves the promotional needle forward. The rapper has had his fair share of high-profile feuds, including longstanding tension with NBA YoungBoy and social media disputes with Tekashi 69 and Soulja Boy. Still, Durk alleges that he has been offered money to participate in a few. Taking to Twitter, he wrote, “Labels try to pay me to beef. I just can’t fake it. I’m different. I’m him. Unpredictable.”

Later in the day, he returned to the platform to post, “Automatic support get y’all munyun (money) together all that other cap is bap,” many fans believing that Durk was closing out his initial post.

Over the past few years, the “All My Life” rapper has begun to publicize his advocacy work. While some have criticized his motives, Durk has maintained that it is to showcase his positive work, highlighting that he is much more than the beef he’s been linked to. Some of those efforts included meeting with his hometown Chicago’s mayor-elect Brandon Johnson, to discuss programs for the city’s children. Another was the formation of his HBCU-focused scholarship.

21 Savage Gives J. Cole His Flowers For Verse On Lil Durk’s “All My Life”

All My Life” by Lil Durk and J. Cole might just be the most anticipated and buzzed-about hip-hop drop of the week. Of course, ever since the Chicago native teased a collab with the North Carolina lyricist at the Dreamville Festival in early April, fans clamored for it to release. Now, ahead of Durk’s next album Almost Healed, this single will hold them over and keep them excited for what’s to come on that project. Of course, such a notable collab was bound to turn heads within the industry as well. For example, 21 Savage recently took to Twitter to praise the “on the street” MC for his contributions to the track.

“Cole just went so crazy on that verse wtf,” 21 wrote on Twitter shortly after the song’s release. Listeners definitely agree, as the social media platform flooded with awed and impressed reactions to the collab. It’s definitely a more introspective and heartfelt offering than some of Lil Durk’s more overtly aggressive or boastful tracks. However, that’s not to say that such themes were never there in the first place. J. Cole and 21 Savage also have songs and tours together, which makes their respect for each other that much more meaningful.

21 Savage Praises J. Cole’s Verse On “All My Life” By Lil Durk

In addition to the Atlanta MC, Smurk himself also had some words to say about J. Cole’s verse. In fact, he had a pretty hilarious admission to make, and goes to show that rappers have to be humble when necessary, as well. “The number one thing, he smoked my a** on that, for one,” Lil Durk expressed. “Barely. That barely happens. But shoutout to Cole, shoutout to [Dr.] Luke. We made it happen.” From what people like 21 Savage have said, it’s not hard to see why.

Meanwhile, the “One Mic, One Gun” rhymer recently popped out at Young Nudy’s concert in Atlanta to play a standout collab of his own. The two performed “Peaches & Eggplants” off of Nudy’s recent album, Gumbo. Hopefully he can link with either Durk or Cole soon, and maybe he will be the one with the highlight verse this time around. Regardless, log back into HNHH for the latest on Lil Durk, 21 Savage, and J. Cole.

Lil Durk & India Royale Team Up For Mother’s Day

Many people online believe that Lil Durk and India Royale are back together after a few different teases. First, there was a picture of a mystery woman on an Instagram post from the Chicago MC that got many theorizing. Moreover, the two just uploaded a video together for Soulé, a creole-infused soul food restaurant in Chicago, ahead of Mother’s Day. Presumably from their message, the two are paying for mothers’ food at the location, and wished all the mothers out there a fantastic day. Regardless of whether they’re back together or not, the two clearly have more important and beneficial things on their mind together.

Another reason why many think that Smurk and India are back together is because they were recently spotted on a stroll. Given how much the rapper lamented the loss of the relationship, hopefully they are focusing, if anything, on building a solid and amicable relationship together before diving into anything. After all, it’s entirely possible for them to just be on the best terms and support each other in their endeavors. In fact, the entrepreneur reposted the music video for Lil Durk’s most recent drop, the single “All My Life” with J. Cole.

India Royale & Lil Durk Are Giving Back To Their Community On Mother’s Day

Furthermore, this continues the two’s streak of community efforts to help uplift those in need in any way they can. Considering how much many families struggle in their day-to-day, free meals mean a lot, especially on a mother’s special day. Another one of Lil Durk’s charitable works was giving Howard University $350,000 in scholarships and grants. Ultimately, many fans are waiting for official confirmation on their relationship and whether they’re back together. However, it’s great to see them focus on other things as well and use their joint platform for more pressing needs.

Unfortunately, there are those out there that would rather bash them, even if it’s just because of rap beef proximity. NBA YoungBoy recently dissed both of them in a savage Twitter tirade, for which he had no business dragging Royale into. Regardless, it seems like Durk is largely unfazed by his attacks, and clearly saving his energy for more fruitful endeavors. Regardless, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on Lil Durk and India Royale.
