Dionne Warwick recently paid Kelly Clarkson a visit on her talk show, where the two musicians praised one another. During the discussion, Warwick opened up about how she found out that Doja Cat had sampled her song, “Walk On By,” for the latter’s Scarlet single, “Paint The Town Red.”
As it turns out, Doja didn’t need permission for the sample — so Warwick found out through a sweet story about her granddaughter.
“I didn’t know it had been recorded by her,” she said. “My granddaughter called me and says, ‘Grammy, do you know you’re on a record with Doja Cat?’ I said, ‘Doja who?’”
“Well, apparently, it’s a major hit for her,” Warwick added.
Clarkson then confirmed how much of a hit that Doja’s “Paint The Town Red” is, “Oh no no, it’s huge.”
“I’m thrilled,” Warwick continued. “I hope ‘Walk On By’ is as good for her as it has been for me… They’re great songs, and finally [the kids are] being exposed to some good music.”
Back in 1964, Warwick’s “Walk On By” had reached No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100. Decades later, Doja Cat earned her first solo No. 1 hit by incorporating it into “Paint The Town Red.”
Check out the clip of Dionne Warwick talking about Doja sampling her above.

In a recent interview with Angela Yee, Nick Cannon found himself navigating the waters of controversy surrounding hip-hop mogul Diddy. For those who have been keeping up, Diddy’s reputation has been cast in a complicated light due to a shocking federal lawsuit filed by R&B singer Cassie. The lawsuit, reported by the New York Times, alleged a disturbing decade-long pattern of control, abuse, and even rape. Leaving the public stunned and prompting denials from Combs. What unfolded next was a rapid-fire resolution, as Diddy settled the staggering $30 million lawsuit in just one day.
Cannon’s candid remarks shed light on the internal conflict many in the industry now face. The Wild ‘N Out star grappled with completely disapproving of Diddy’s alleged behavior. While still caring for the person behind the controversy. “I think it’s… man. We all sit here in this game for a long time. And there’s a lot of things that we probably don’t know the details on,” Cannon expressed. As the interview unfolded, Angela Yee pressed Cannon on his feelings towards Cassie amid the turmoil. “I mean, how do you leave a nice comment for Cassie with everything that’s been happening with Diddy?” she inquired. Cannon’s response signified the struggle faced by many celebs on the sidelines. He’s grappling with the revelation of alleged misconduct by someone they know.
“I don’t agree with the behavior, but I care for the person,” Cannon admitted. This internal tug-of-war became even more palpable with the revelation that Diddy swiftly settled the $30 million lawsuit within a mere 24 hours. Cassie’s lawsuit, painting a chilling picture of a decade-long ordeal, sent shockwaves through the industry, prompting a reevaluation of the narratives surrounding influential figures. Diddy’s quick settlement added a layer of complexity to the unfolding saga, leaving many questioning the truth behind closed doors. “When you think about all that Diddy has done for the culture,” Cannon said.
“We all on the outside looking in, and when you start to hear stuff, you don’t know how to feel because you know these people,” Cannon continued. Nick Cannon’s candid commentary serves as a snapshot into the industry’s struggle to reconcile personal relationships with the harsh realities of the public eye. The Diddy controversy, intertwined with Cassie’s explosive lawsuit and subsequent settlement, serves as a stark reminder. Even in the world of glitz and glamour, the shadows can hide painful truths. And not everyone may be ready to fully accept it.

The accuser, recognizing the sensitivity of the matter, has pleaded for her identity to remain hidden throughout the legal proceedings. In a statement, she expresses, “I do not desire to publicly disclose my identity as a victim of sexual assault because this matter is highly sensitive.” This request highlights the profound impact that such cases can have on the lives of the individuals involved, extending beyond the courtroom. The woman mentioned that she was willing to share her name with Foxx and his legal team but desired to keep her identity confidential from the public.

During a recent interview with VladTV, Vanilla Ice reflected on the time he spent with Pablo Escobar. Surprisingly, he wasn’t aware of what the Colombian drug lord did for a living, assuming that he was simply a businessman. According to Vanilla Ice, he had some good times with Escobar and his crew, calling him nothing short of a “great” guy in person.
“I hung out with Pablo Escobar many, many times,” he began. “And Juan Almeida, Pepe Nunez, Ralph [‘Cabeza’ Linero] and everybody from Cocaine Cowboys. We were all friends.” He went on, describing how Escobar and his friends would make frequent visits to his home. “They would land helicopters in my house constantly on Star Island, come into my house, I had food just for them in the refrigerators,” he explained.
“They would take me in the helicopter and we would go to all these great events, race boats and look at all the cool stuff that they were making,” he continued. “I never [asked] questions, we didn’t have Google, I don’t know who these people are. I thought they were businessmen. They liked to race boats like I did.” Vanilla Ice says that overall, Escobar was a joy to be around, despite what one might expect. “Pablo was a great person in person,” he explained. “This sounds ridiculous! First of all, I had no Google. You don’t go up to people and go, ‘What do you do for a living?’”
“I have no idea, bro. The guy’s loaded, he has a [Ferrari] Testarossa, I had a Porsche that’s smoking. We raced. I raced Pablo Escobar. I smoked him. We would go out and race boats. We were always on boats. They was always a bunch of bikinis floating around everywhere,” he added. What do you think of Vanilla Ice’s account of hanging out with Pablo Escobar?

Ice-T will finally appear on Rick & Morty, eight years after Dan Harmon voiced a parody version of the actor and rapper. Ice will appear in this week’s episode, voicing a character named “Magma Q”. Based on the naming convention, the character appears to be a member of the same elemental alphabet race as “Water-T”, the Ice parody Harmon voiced back in season 2. However, Ice has repeatedly taken to social media to shoutout the show for his season 2 portrayal.
However, getting the actual Ice-T on the show has long been a goal of Harmon’s. “I love Ice-T and it would be a fantasy come true to have him come and do Ice-T or Water-T or any other character. He could be Vice President or whatever. It would be great to work with him sometime. I love his voice. That’s why I do a dumb impression of it,” Harmon said.
Of course, a major shakeup occurred before the current season of Rick & Morty. Justin Roiland, the show’s co-creator and voice of many of the show’s principal characters, was removed after facing allegations of domestic violence. While the charges against Roiland were dropped, he has not rejoined many of the projects he was removed from. Instead, Rick and Morty are now voiced by separate actors. Ian Cardoni now plays Rick while Morty is portrayed by Harry Belden. Fans have largely been receptive to the change.
The season has been more of the same wacky shenanigans that fans have come to expect from the show. However, the formula appears to be starting to tire with audiences. The season currently holds a 44% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It’s unclear, however, if this is a genuine reflection of the show or a protest by Justin Roiland loyalists. While the new voices have been mostly well-received, some have called them “weird”. Meanwhile, others have railed against what they see as an example of “cancel culture”.
21 Savage is currently making his way around Europe on a mini tour, after finally receiving his green card earlier this year. Most recently, he headlined a show at London’s O2 Arena, sharing an exciting announcement with the crowd. He announced that he’s got a new album on the way, advising listeners to get prepared.
“My album finna drop,” 21 Savage revealed. “So, y’all get ready.” Fans have been waiting for his third album for years now, and it’s safe to say they can’t wait to hear what he has in store for them. This isn’t the first time he’s hinted at an upcoming project this year either. He got followers talking with a cryptic Tweet in August. “It’s time,” he wrote simply, along with a slew of side-eye emojis.
21 Savage didn’t provide the crowd with many more details of the project, thus leaving its release date a mystery. He was just recently spotting filming what appears to be a new music video in Brixton, however, suggesting that it could be just around the corner. He’s yet to drop anything on his own in 2023, but regardless, he’s had quite a year. He teamed up with Drake for the It’s All A Blur tour in support of their joint album, Her Loss, which was wildly successful. The LP also has them in the running for multiple Grammy Awards, including Best Rap Album.
Tracks from Her Loss are nominated for Best Rap Performance, Best Rap Song, and Best Melodic Rap Performance. He’s nominated once again in the Melodic Rap Performance category for he and Burna Boy’s collab, “Sittin’ on Top of the World.” His Spotify listeners also came through this year, earning him a staggering total of six billion streams. What do you think of 21 Savage’s recent announcement? Are you looking forward to hearing the rapper’s upcoming album?

Lil Wayne is back in the legal realm of accountability, and it’s not just because of his possible connection in the YSL RICO trial. Moreover, it’s because his former bodyguard Carlos Christian sued him for alleged assault and threats with a firearm, according to legal documents obtained by TMZ. Specifically, Christian claimed to police that the rapper punched him in the ear and threatened to shoot him with a semiautomatic rifle. Furthermore, these are claims that the ex-security team member took seriously given his former client’s history, as he served time for weapons charges.
However, maybe this story doesn’t sound all that new to you, and you would be somewhat right in that assumption. This all went down back in December of 2021, when Christan called law enforcement to Lil Wayne’s house in Hidden Hills, California due to the alleged dispute that reportedly occurred there. Still, when they arrived, sources close to him denied any such escalation and claimed that he didn’t even own a gun in the first place. As of writing this article, the Welcome 2 ColleGrove artist hasn’t responded to this whole ordeal.

Regardless, from what these alleged legal documents detail according to TMZ, Carlos Christian has prepared a full case against him with the help of his legal team. For example, he claims that Lil Wayne’s alleged attack and threat cost him medical expenses, lost him wages, and caused emotional distress given this supposed experience. Now, Christian plans to make the “Oprah & Gayle” artist pay up for this with punitive and compensatory damages. It’s unclear if this will be a quick resolution or if Weezy will want to take this up in court.
Meanwhile, all this comes as his beef with Young Thug might become a relevant part of his RICO case along with YSL. That depends on the prosecution and how the court will admit that evidence, and it’s still far too early in the process to call. Let’s just hope that this lawsuit comes to an amicable end and that this “he said, she said” gets cleared up. On that note, come back to HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Lil Wayne.
