Cardi B Sparks Pregnancy Rumors With Impact Awards Outfit Following Offset Reconciliation

by

Cardi B sparked pregnancy rumors on social media after rocking an oversized black blazer and floor-length sheer skirt to Hollywood Unlocked’s annual Impact Awards ceremony on Friday night. She was present at the event to accept the “Inspiration” accolade, at which time, she gave an impassioned speech to not only thank Jason Lee for the honor but to call out her haters as well.

Afterward, users on X (formerly Twitter) began theorizing that she’s expecting another child with Offset. “Cardi b is currently roughly 5 months pregnant,” one fan wrote, as caught by Bossip. “She won’t drop the album in the next two months because she will be full blown pregnant and can’t tour. She will drop the album in 4 months right before she deliver then go on tour 2 months post partum.” Another added: “Cardi is so annoying wtf are you doing pregnant when cheating allegations were just a few months ago stop pissing me awfffffffff.”

As for her acceptance speech, she began: “I just want to say thank Jason [Lee] so much for this award. I’m really my biggest critic and I always say this, ‘Nobody has it harder than in the industry and in every genre than a female rapper, and I’m going to tell you why. You have to have the best verse. Not only that, you have to kill the charts. On top of that, your personal life has to be perfect, or then the opp b****es are going to use that against you.”

While it doesn’t appear that Cardi has addressed the pregnancy rumors, she’s still been active on social media. Over the weekend, she asked fans whether they’d be interested in her dropping a Spanish album, before confirming that she’d be down to do so. “Ok after my English album,” she wrote on her Instagram Story. Be on the lookout for further updates on Cardi B on HotNewHipHop.

Rubi Rose Announces She Is Single & Ready To Mingle After Short-Lived Relationship With Druski

by

Rubi Rose and Druski (Drubi) have seemingly split up, after the Kentucky femcee emphatically labeled herself as single. To many, this may not come as a surprise, as people were quick to question the validity of their relationship. But whether you want to believe that it not, this confirms that they were indeed an item. This news comes courtesy of The Shade Room, and this relationship update was revealed during Paris Fashion Week. In short and blunt fashion, Rubi Rose was asked what her favorite love song was, given they were in the aforementioned city.

“Um, f*** love“, she told the interviewer. However, she was not referring to the song by XXXTENTACION. Instead, she was sharing how she has seemingly been feeling lately. Before abruptly walking away, Rose made it known that she is not with anyone anymore. “Okay, I’m single, guys”. The Shade Room is also saying that Druski has yet to speak out about this breakup and that neither of them were following each other on Instagram.

But instead of just moving on from the star comedian, Rubi is supposedly ready to make herself totally available again. In a clip reshared from HOLLYWOOD UNLOCKED off her IG story, the model was sporting her figure in a sultry fashion. She captioned the video, “Responding to DMs”, with a link attached. When you click on it, it takes you to her version of a Linktree. It includes shortcuts to her OnlyFans, Snapchat, as well as the music video for “Deserve To Die”. Given the fact that the track deals with men cheating on women, some are speculating that Druski was possibly getting with someone else. Regardless, it will be interesting to see what happens between them.

What are your thoughts on Rubi Rose saying that she is now single? Do you think that her relationship with Druski was truly real? How do you feel about her seemingly making herself available already? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Rubi Rose and Druski. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the worlds of music and pop culture.

Camila Cabello Debuts One Of The Two Drake Collaborations From Her Upcoming Album Live

We’re now just days away from the release of Camila Cabello’s upcoming album, C, XOXO. It’s set to drop this Friday, but before that, Cabello has unleashed a preview of “Uuugly,” which is one of two Drake collaborations on the album.

Cabello performed at Rock In Rio Lisboa yesterday (June 23), where she played the interlude track between songs (while bikers did tricks on stage, no less). It’s a brief, atmospheric tune that sees Drake delivering smooth sung vocals.

In a May interview, Cabello talked about working with Drake, saying, “He’s the f*cking GOAT, so it felt like shooting for the stars. I showed him the album when I felt comfortable enough and he really liked it. [The feature] came out of a non-transactional place. He had this idea of a song called ‘Hot Uptown,’ and it just felt like I was in the city. I was in Miami.”

She also spoke about “Uuugly,” saying, “Why does he have his own song? Because selfishly, I just want to hear Drake on my own album [laughs]. I love that for me — it’s like that rebellious mood. Who says I can’t do that? It’s Drake talking his sh*t.”

C, XOXO is out 6/28 via Geffen/Interscope. Find more information here.

Latto’s Rumored Album Title May Have Been Inspired By Ice Spice And Naturally, Fans Are Losing Their Cool About It

by

Oy vey. Just when you thought Kendrick Lamar’s Pop Out concert in LA finally brought the fractious energy of early 2024 to its natural conclusion, another one of the many, many examples of rap beef this year resurfaced over the weekend to potentially keep the bad vibes rolling into the summer.

According to fans attending Latto’s Birthday Bash concert in Atlanta, the “Big Energy” rapper teased the title of her next album during the show. It’s supposedly called Sugar Honey Iced Tea, and here’s why fans think it has to do with Ice Spice and her beef with Latto. Latto later seemingly confirmed that she does have something by that name “OTW” and with a CD emoji attached, it does appear to be an album.

Obviously, the phrase “sugar honey iced tea” has long been used as an acronym for a certain bad word referring to poop. This is significant here because Ice Spice’s most successful Y2K! single this year so far has been “Think U The Sh*t (Fart),” which the Bronx native admitted is a diss song about Latto. While Latto already addressed Ice Spice with her own combative single, “Sunday Service,” fans have interpreted Latto’s album title as a direct response to Ice’s accusation, acknowledging that yes, she does think she is “the sh*t.”

Naturally, everyone is being very chill about this… oh, wait. No. Of course, they aren’t. In any event, you can watch Latto’s Birthday Bash in full up top, and check out just some of the reactions to her album’s potential title below.

Pop Smoke Murder Trial Faces Delay Due To Alleged Killer Failing To Negotiate Plea Deal

by

The murder case of Pop Smoke still persists, and the court just found a new obstacle in their way on the path to justice. Moreover, the court issued a new start date for the trial of Corey Walker, the case’s sole adult defendant and the New York drill rapper’s alleged killer. Apparently, Walker failed to reach a proper plea agreement in time with prosecutors, and must now wait a bit longer for his trial unless he and his legal team are able to mitigate this. It’s been over four years since Pop tragically passed away following a home invasion, but we seem no closer to giving his loved ones peace and his supposed killers accountability.

Furthermore, this follows the recent news that one of Pop Smoke’s alleged killers actually got out of prison recently, seemingly for his 21st birthday. The individual pleaded guilty a couple of years ago, so it looks like he completed his sentence and now walks the streets a free man. Social media posts indicated this online, and this is one of the other underage defendants that served time in juvie. It’s unclear whether these developments will cross over in some way or if one’s release has nothing to do with the other’s attempts at a plea deal.

“Negotiations fell through,” Corey Walker’s attorney Deion Benjamin told Rolling Stone of the Pop Smoke case. “But there’s still a possibility we’ll come to an agreement. A few things need to be ironed out; if they don’t get resolved, we’ll go to trial.” Jury selection will begin on August 6 if they can’t reach a plea agreement.

“We didn’t know each other at all, but it was you who changed my life..” an alleged witness to the crime said of Pop Smoke. “I never thought that I would become a witness to a murder and someone’s death. February 19, 2020 the worst night of my life.. I will never forget your smile when you turned on the movie Hitch..I will never forget how scared we were that night when we looked into each other’s eyes and realized that we were about to be killed. I remember what I thought at that moment (am I really going to die and my mother will never see me again) God gave me a second chance ..that’s 4 years of depression 4 years were so hard. But I thank God for life.I will never forget you.. you will forever be in my heart.”

Joe Budden Claims He “Passed The Baton” To Pusha T & Kendrick Lamar To Take Down Drake

by

Joe Budden says Kendrick Lamar’s victory over Drake in their recent feud was a group effort and that he “passed the baton” to Pusha T who then passed it to the “Not Like Us” rapper. He made the admittedly narcissistic comments during a conversation on the JBTV After Hours show on X (formerly Twitter) Spaces. Budden and the Toronto rapper have famously been feuding for many years, while Pusha T dropped his iconic diss track, “The Story of Adidon,” back in 2018.

Budden began by admitting that his comments may “come off the wrong way” or “sound narcissistic,” but further argued: “I don’t think any one man takes down Drake. I think that was a baton. I think I passed the baton to Push. I think Push passed the baton to Kendrick and the job is done now. That’s how I feel in my head and in my heart.”

When DJ Akademiks shared Budden’s comments on Instagram, plenty of Drake fans popped up in the comments section. One top response reads: “What they all FAIL to realize is Drake has something that NONE of them have…. THE WOMEN & POP CULTURE!!!! dont @ Me… this IS NOT a RAP Battle!!!! Its the Music Business!!!!” Others echoed similar sentiments about Drake’s continued popularity. Another wrote: “This further proves that Drake won.. these guys are doing their best to build these narratives and it’s only proving that they ALL begging, wack & weak individuals looking to fight Drake for solely being successful.”

Lil Durk Set Ablaze Following His Support For The Chicago Sky

by

The WNBA continues to receive more eyeballs on its product this season. When you have a global star like Caitlin Clark, it becomes a lot easier to market your brand. Lil Durk is starting to catch on to what the league is building, as he pulled up to support his hometown Chicago Sky (6-9). Last night, Angel Reese and her crew took down the Indiana Fever (7-11) in perhaps the most exciting game of the season. After falling behind by 15 near the end of the third quarter, the Sky chipped away at the deficit. They eventually went up four with 27.8 seconds remaining to hold on, 88-87.

Angel Reese was a big part of their success, notching 25 points, 16 rebounds, on an efficient 8-12 shooting night. Lil Durk might have been a catalyst as well, as he performed at halftime. Vic Mensa and G Herbo were also in attendance, as part of a Juneteenth celebration promotion. After picking up the massive W, Smurk joined the team in the locker room to show them love, according to AllHipHop. “We locked in now. Y’all had a good game today and I’m gonna be at more of the games supporting y’all”, Durk said. This energy from the Chicago native is nothing new, as he originally welcomed Reese and Kamilla Cardoso to the squad.

Lil Durk Can’t Support The Chicago Sky Without Getting Flamed

Even though this was a sweet moment for the team and the league, fans were still finding something funny. In this case, it was Lil Durk’s height and outfit of choice. According to the internet, the hitmaker stands 5’7″, which comparatively is pretty short to a lot of WNBA athletes. Reese is 6’3″, so with an eight-inch height discrepancy, X users were quick to point that out. Durk and the Sky forward linked up for a picture which led to obvious jokes. As for his get-up, some were saying he was wearing a Snuggie, or trying to impersonate a political leader in some European country.

What are your thoughts on Lil Durk being made fun of while supporting the Chicago Sky? Who had the funniest joke in your opinion? Is the WNBA going to be one of the biggest major sports leagues in the next couple of years, why or why not? Was this the best WNBA game of the season so far? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Lil Durk and the WNBA. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the worlds of music and sports.

Young Chop Seemingly Fights A Fellow Jail Inmate In New Body Cam Footage

by

Young Chop has been in jail for a while now, and while we’re sure that a lot of conflicts emerge in there, this is the first one that we know of publicly. Moreover, new body cam footage leaked online from April 10, and seemingly shows him fighting with another inmate in a cell. The Chicago drill producer apparently swung at his fellow inmate from behind, and they then got into a one-on-one scuffle that the officer in question attempted to halt. It’s very unclear what prompted this or whether or not this is part of a larger issue or altercation, but either way, it looks like he wasn’t able to sneak a swing on his colleague successfully.

Furthermore, Young Chop has unfortunately faced a lot of difficulties and obstacles in the 2020s decade so far. For one, he had to reckon with this jail time, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic and for multiple charges including probation violation and animal cruelty. Another reason is that Chop sadly lost his brother Johnny May Cash to violence, which followed some possible tension with other individuals from the city. Hopefully this documented fight was just a one-off incident and he doesn’t have to deal with that as he heals from other circumstances.

However, hopefully there are brighter days ahead for Young Chop, who has still been able to occasionally drop new music during his time in jail. For example, he released the mixtape Under Surveillance back in 2021 as he dealt with some of these issues, bolstered by singles and hot collabs. While it’s been pretty radio silent since, it’s also very understandable that the focus is more on his physical and criminal obstacles. After all, things seem much bigger than what any one artist is able to fix or mitigate.

Meanwhile, we wonder if Young Chop’s animosity towards Kanye West remains or if prison has changed his assessment a bit. Regardless, he surely developed some very interesting perspectives on the world and how it changed since his legal issues began. Maybe that’s what prompted this prison fight in the first place. We’ll probably never know for sure, but hopefully his eventual freedom will show this new mentality.

Kendrick Lamar Jokes That ScHoolboy Q’s Daughter Is Already Taller Than Him During “Not Like Us” Shoot

by

Kendrick Lamar joked that ScHoolboy Q’s daughter is already taller than him during a wholesome moment at the music video shoot for “Not Like Us.” “You taller than me and some mo’ sh*t… you grown, that’s crazy man,” the Los Angeles rapper remarks in a viral video from the day. Lamar has been reuniting with numerous West Coast artists to film the highly-anticipated video.

Many fans on X (formerly Twitter) were loving the reunion between Lamar and Q’s family, but not all responses were so positive. Others questioned why it had been so long since seeing each other. “Q stays in California .. so how long has it been since Kendrick seen Q if he’s shocked his daughter has gotten taller. Idk man this don’t seem like someone that’s been locked in wit LA,” one user wrote. Another added: “The fact he hasn’t seen Q daughter in that long… don’t sit right with me…. i really feel like he switched up on rock soul and Q and they just always loved him no matter what.”

Asian Doll Bombarded With Hate After Rehashing Beef With Foolio After His Untimely Passing

by

The Florida hip-hop circle and the community at large lost another rapper too soon this past weekend. Foolio became the fatal victim during an “ambush” shooting at a Tampa Holiday Inn, leaving three additional people with injuries. He was celebrating his 26th birthday and it appeared to be a pretty publicly known event, as the MC was making his location quite available online. Lewis Fusco, his lawyer tragically confirmed the news via Instagram and to local news stations in Jacksonville. With so little information about Foolio’s involvement, as well as how sensitive things are right now, Mr. Fusco advised everyone to give his loved ones some space. “We will not be making any additional statements until further notice. “Please respect his family during this difficult time. Rest in peace @julio_foolio”.

Well, that wish is not being respected by fellow rapper from Dallas, Texas, Asian Doll. Prior to Foolio’s, death, him and Doll were beefing, especially around 2021-2022. The former’s presence on social media was one of instigation, and he seemed to start things with the TV star in ’21. Foolio shared a short video around this time in which he said, “Real s***. If somethin’ ever happen to me, bro, don’t be an Asian Doll. If you know what we was on and we didn’t talk like that, don’t be extra. For real. Don’t be on that Asian”. He made that statement after she was grieving the loss of her then boyfriend, King Von. A lot of people online thought Asian Doll was being too dramatic, and Foolio was in that camp, too.

She responded with some harsh words, saying, “But when some do happen to you watch nobody give no f***. Get off n**** d**k tho fan a** n****”. Distastefully, Asian Doll tweeted out a “🚬” after the Foolio news, and even though it seems to have been deleted, fans are letting her hear it. Some are getting super disrespectful, with one user stating, “When it happens to her it’s a parade in every city”. Others are claiming she just wants her shine. “Y’all leave her she tryna be relevant haha 😂”. Our continued well wishes go out to Foolio’s family and friends during this difficult time.

What are your thoughts on this tweet from Asian Doll after Foolio’s passing? Do you think she should stop the subtle jabs at him, given everything that has happened, why or why not? Were you aware of their beef before this tweet? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Asian Doll and Foolio. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.
