Lil Baby Explains Why He Will Never Get Legally Married

by

Lil Baby has been doing press at an unprecedented level in promotion of his new album WHAM. The rapper typically likes to keep to himself, but he has been incredibly forthright about his personal life and his stances on various topics. One of the most intriguing topics came about during an appearance on the Lil Yachty podcast A Safe Place. Lil Baby was asked whether he would consider getting married at some point in the future. He made it clear that legally speaking, he has no interest in tying the knot.

Lil Baby has nothing against romance, but he doesn’t feel the need to go through the legal steps needed to become man and wife. That’s what he told Lil Yachty, at least. “Prenups don’t mean nothing,” the ATL rapper asserted. “It’s no thing that you can marry a woman and then she don’t get nothing.” Baby added that he would prefer to establish a marriage on his own terms. He wants to go about his love life without the financial risks that come with paperwork. “It’s ways for her to get something, regardless once y’all get married,” Lil Baby noted. “I give a girl $10 million ring, $10 million wedding, no paperwork.”

Lil Baby Doesn’t Want To “Share” His Finances

Lil Baby believes that a personal vow should be more than enough to bind two people, romantically. “That’s my offer,” the rapper asserted. “I vow til death do us part, we married.” Lil Yachty tried to pose different situations in which being legally married would benefit the rapper. Lil Baby wasn’t going for it, though. Even if he was in an accident, or sent to prison, the rapper said he “wouldn’t give a damn” about the benefits. He also wanted to account for the possibility of feelings changing with a partner as he gets older. “That could change when I get older,” the rapper noted. “I don’t really see that.”

Lil Baby also discussed his stance on “snitches” during his Safe Place discussion. He told Lil Yachty that he does not make music with rappers he considers to be snitches. His reasoning? He doesn’t feel like his lyrics would come across as convincing in collaboration with someone who doesn’t share his values. “It boils down to what we rapping about,” he explained. “We can’t rap about that if you did that. If I was making Christmas music, then I don’t give a damn what you did.”

Papoose Clarifies Fat Joe’s Recent Remarks About Remy Ma Drama

by

Papoose has addressed Fat Joe’s recent comments on the drama between him and his wife, Remy Ma. After Joe broke his silence on their recent spat by recalling going to dinner with Remy, Papoose clarified that he wasn’t present. Joe discussed their relationship during an interview with Math Hoffa on the My Expert Opinion podcast.

“[Remy Ma] never tells me her personal relationship business, but what I know is I left y’all last night, we went to Brooklyn Chophouse, she treated 10 grown men to dinner, and I woke up in the morning and my phone was going crazy,” Fat Joe said. “They was like, ‘Yo, look what’s going on. I’m like, what the f*ck?’” After the comments circulated online, Papoose took to his Instagram Story. “Peace to my brother @fatjoe I think y’all misunderstood his interview,” he wrote, as caught by AllHipHop. “I was not at @brooklynchophouse with them, I do spend thousands of dollars there regularly. I love that place!”

Elsewhere during the Math Hoffa interview, Joe explained that he is helpless to resolve their dispute. “What I can’t do is stop it, or they won’t listen to me,” he admitted. “The first time she ever asked me for advice, I said, ‘Listen, it’s different. You have a husband, this is your husband’. Nobody come to my house, tell my wife sh*t. This is your husband, I can’t get in the middle of that sh*t.” 

Fat Joe Weighs In On Remy Ma & Papoose

Remy popped off on Papoose on social media, last week, alleging that he had an affair with Claressa Shields. This resulted in numerous posts being fired off at each other in the following days. Check out Fat Joe’s comments on Remy Ma and Papoose below.

Lil Durk & India Royale Reportedly Got Secretly Married Months Ago

by

Lil Durk is facing a difficult uphill battle behind bars, as he awaits trial for alleged murder-for-hire conspiracy. But he apparently went through another massive life update as of late that, in the long run, is likely much more important to him. Moreover, according to DJ Akademiks, the Chicago rapper married his longtime girlfriend India Royale in secret, which we presume happened quite a while ago. The media personality made the revelation while going through some court documents related to Durk’s case, particularly a line that painted him as a “devoted husband” around the 15:15-minute mark of the Twitter video below.

Of course, India Royale made her support for Lil Durk during this difficult time very clear, whether it was in person or via social media. For example, she recently shared a picture of all of his children together, as she was supporting one of their football games and made it a family occasion. In addition, Royale also attended one of Smurk’s court hearings, so that solidarity is not exclusive to just Internet engagement. We’ll see how this relationship continues to evolve, if she speaks on their marriage, and whether or not they face any more bumps in the road.

Lil Durk Reportedly Married India Royale In Secret

As for Lil Durk’s federal case in particular, India Royale’s support means much more now given the court’s recent denial of his bond package. The offer as a whole reportedly comprised of an approximate value of $3.3 million. “We were obviously disappointed, but will continue to fight on,” his lawyer Jonathan Brayman stated to The Chicago Tribune concerning this bail denial. “[He] remains confident and optimistic about the future. He deeply appreciates the outpouring of love and support he has felt since his arrest.”

There are many other narratives and angles to consider, such as the use of lyrics in court or Lil Durk’s philanthropic efforts as of late. It’s a federal case, so obviously all these elements became much more complicated and salacious. But as far as his bond with India Royale, this may be a tough time for celebrations, but we’re happy to hear that they took this step in their relationship. Especially now, that union is special.

Lil Scrappy Admits He Doesn’t Like Bambi Anymore

by

Lil Scrappy says he doesn’t like his ex-wife, Bambi, anymore, but won’t go so far as to use the word, “hate.” He explained his feelings for her in a video posted on social media after Bambi shared a picture with a man by the name of Rayface, as noted by The Shade Room. “I just do not like her,” Scrappy revealed in the post.

“That’s the difference,” he continued. “Hate is a strong word, strong word. I just don’t even have the energy for that sh*t anymore. It’s about getting money and taking care of them kids man. I don’t even look that way. I just keep moving, get my money. Do what I’ve been trying to do for the longest, like I’m doing it.” He never explained the timing of the post.

Many fans on social media appear to be taking Bambi’s side in the feud. “Every man hates a woman that makes him stand on business,” one user wrote when Hollywood Unlocked shared the clip on Instagram. Another added: “First off he looks like he’s in a jail cell getting high. Secondly Bam is the only one to give you your FLOWERS LITERALLY when it comes to being a dad. You just don’t like her cause she’s not one of ‘them’!!! What a [clown emoji].”

Boosie Badazz’s Fiancée Admits She Would’ve Prefered To Be Married Before Having Kids

by

Boosie Badazz’s fiancée, Rajel Nelson, recently discussed her feelings about having a child with the rapper before they officially get married. As caught by The Shade Room, she admitted on Instagram Live that she originally planned to be married before welcoming her first child, but credited God for putting her in this situation.

“I did say I would like to be a wife before I have a kid, but God has blessed me to have a kid before I got married and that it okay,” she began. “This is my baby. I made it. So, I’m gonna just– you know. I made my bed, so I gotta lay in it. And, I would never do anything to stop this from happening because this is a blessing that God gave to me no matter what I said. I said it’d be nice to be married before I am here, but that didn’t happen just yet. I’m not discrediting myself for being pregnant. I keep seeing everybody keep saying, ‘You need a ring. You need to be a wife.’ The majority of y’all in the world are bastards. That doesn’t mean you’re not a blessing from God. That don’t mean God don’t love you.”

The explanation isn’t stopping criticism from users on social media. “Not judging her for having a kid before marriage but I’m definitely judging her for having a kid with Boosie,” one user wrote in the comments of The Shade Room’s post. Another went further, adding: “I’m sorry, she sounds crazy. Allowing a man to deposit his seed into you with the intention of creating life without being married KNOWING that is what you initially required and desired should not be so easily taken lightly.”

Rajel Nelson Discusses Her Relationship

Nelson’s latest rant on social media comes after the couple announced the gender of their child, last week. The two are expecting a baby girl. Check out Rajel Nelson’s full comments on the idea of marrying Boosie Badazz below.

GloRilla’s Tweet About Wanting To Be “Single & Celibate” Generates Mixed Reactions

by

GloRilla is back at it again with another post about dating and everything that comes with it. According to AllHipHop, the Memphis rap superstar sent out a tweet on X regarding waiting for the perfect guy to come along. Single & celibate until God send me my husband🤗🫶,” she said on the platform. The celibacy journey is something that she’s been talking about. At the top of the year, one of her goals for the year was to go without having any sexual activity for 90 days. It even became a topic of conversation with Complex‘s own Speedy Morman. However, around Halloween, she sent her fans and the internet into a frenzy over some pictures on Instagram.

It was her wearing what is now known to be a fake baby bump. People were especially shocked due to her previous feelings she shared with Charlamagne Tha God about having kids. Big Glo did try to keep the act going by denying that she wasn’t faking her pregnancy. However, it was eventually all put to rest fairly quickly. All of these past posts are why this tweet is maintaining some traction right now. Additionally, though, it’s because some have a major problem with her using “celibate.”

Usually, when someone is celibate, it means that they have never had sex of any kind and never will. It also means not having a relationship of any kind either. It may be a nitpick to some, but quite a few people are taking issue with it. One X user replies, “Women will post this while still getting head in the regular.” Another adds, “You not celibate🤦‍♂️stop using the word wrong.”

However, GloRilla’s fans were more supportive of her decision to wait for the right guy. “Single, celibate, and trusting God’s timing. When it’s meant to be, it’ll be.” “Same. It’s the best way to be. Sooo many diseases out here.” You can say what you want about the wording, but we are happy to see the femcee finding love on her own terms.

Kodak Black Shares His Oddly Blunt Thoughts On Marriage

by

Kodak Black loves a lot, but he’s certainly no romantic. Recently, a recording of him in what seems like a luxury watch store surfaced in which he talks about why he could probably never get married, and the reason why certainly raised some eyebrows for good and not-so-good reasons in the comments section of the post down below. “I don’t think I could ever get married, bro,” the “Versatile” rapper remarked. “I don’t think I love p***y that much.” Considering that he has four children (and is reportedly expecting another one) with multiple women, he probably doesn’t mean what some people thought he meant with that last comment.

However, these comments come at an interesting time for Kodak Black, whose baby mama Daijanae Ward recently spoke on his alleged relationship with their two-year-old daughter. “He wouldn’t know ‘cause he don’t be around her,” she claimed during a recent Instagram Live session. “He don’t know how the f**k my baby act, he don’t even know her. […] If he kept his hands to himself, she wouldn’t be so scared of him.” Those are all just allegations, though, and ones that Yak has yet to respond to or address at press time.

Kodak Black Reveals His Stance On Marriage

Elsewhere, Kodak Black is clapping back at people who expressed concern with reports of him popping pills during a Kai Cenat stream. “Y’all be so f***ing butt-hurt,” he reportedly remarked on Instagram Live after this backlash. “Y’all don’t like a n**** anyway. […] I’m just Yak, bro. Ain’t s**t changed, that’s how I came in this b***h… I wake up like this. If anything, give me drugs. Give me drugs, and I’ll chill. When I’m not high, when I ain’t higher than a b***h, I’m vibing. When I’m high, I’m in my coma, bruh. I ain’t talking to nobody ‘cause I’m getting high.”

Fans mostly worry about this alone, but we’ll see if Kodak Black’s thoughts on long-term and legal commitment even change in the near future. Despite all the controversy and conversation, he continues to drop music and feed fans waiting for his next era. So we’ll see what’s next in this saga and if there’s an upturn in any way.

Common Gets Candid About Potentially Marrying Jennifer Hudson

by

Common and Jennifer Hudson have been going strong for several months now, and it looks like the duo is not opposed to taking things to the next level. During a radio appearance last month, the rapper said that if he were to get married, Hudson would be his wife. He’d have to be positive that it was the best decision for both of them, however.

Earlier this week, Common appeared on The Jennifer Hudson Show. Of course, Hudson had some follow-up questions. “I was asked about marriage, and I just answered honestly,” he explained. “I said—you know what? You told me a quote that your mother said. ‘A man knows what he wants.’ And I was just saying my true feelings about—listen, Jennifer is the person. If I should be married, it will be to Jennifer Kate Hudson. I was just being honest.”

As for how Hudson feels about all of this, she claims her late mother would approve. “My mother was right,” she said. “I think if she had met you, she’d say, ‘I don’t know about the rest of them but that Common is alright with me.’ That’s what she would say! And I would agree. I think it’s a beautiful thing. I think you’re a deserving man. And I support that idea. That’s a beautiful idea… In due time. If it ever gets to that place.”

“I’m listening to God more and more,” Common also added. “I know what purpose is. And I feel like this [relationship] is purpose right here.” What do you think of Jennifer Hudson interviewing Common on her show earlier this week? What about his remarks about marriage? Do you hope to see the happy couple tie the knot sometime in the near future? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

The Foo Fighter leader made the shocking announcement on his Instagram page on Tuesday. “I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her,” he wrote. “I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness. We’re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together.” He turned comments off for the post.

Back in 2007, Grohl revealed how he met Blum during an interview with Q Magazine, as resurfaced by Uproxx. “Taylor [Hawkins] and I were hanging out at the Sunset Marquis whiskey bar,” he recalled at the time. “Taylor was the looker. I mean, girls would send him drinks. Some bombshell comes up and starts talking to Taylor. I was just out of a Tenacious D session. I’ve got Vans trainers on, no socks, dirty shorts and a dirty T-shirt, surrounded by beautiful Hollywood. She waved her friend Jordyn over. I was like, ‘Oh my God. Not a chance!’ So I’m just having some drinks and acting like a jackass. And by the end of the night I was pissed and I’m staring at her going, ‘You’re my future ex-wife.’ So she gave me her number: ‘Jordyn, your future ex-wife.’”
