1090 Jake Allegedly Has $100K On His Head, Claims Ralo Didn’t Snitch

by

1090 Jake has made a name for himself in the world of hip hop through his coverage of high-profile artist’s legal troubles. The internet personality frequently puts rappers on blast for allegedly “snitching,” which it turns out, they aren’t fans of. According to him, there are a lot of people who want his voice to be silenced, and some of them are willing to go to great lengths.

During a recent interview with VladTV, 1090 Jake opened up about his newfound “villain” status, noting how he was set on avoiding drama by not being a rapper. Unfortunately, his current path hasn’t saved him any of the trouble that comes along with that kind of career, and may have actually caused him more. He even says he once heard that he has a $100K bounty on his head. As for where the rumors originated, he says he isn’t sure. “I don’t think the city would matter. I think it’s just wherever, f*ckin’ $100k is $100k,” 1090 Jake explained following the revelation. “It’s just rumors that just floated in my direction but it’s like, you know, that’s what comes with the YouTube world. You make more enemies than you know of.”

1090 Jake Speaks On The Downsides Of His Career

Elsewhere in the interview, 1090 Jake was asked about Ralo. The Atlanta-born performer’s currently behind bars for various money laundering, drug, and gun charges. Earlier this year, his paperwork leaked, resulting in him getting hit with his own set of snitching allegations. According to 1090 Jake, however, the allegations are false.

The personality alleges that Ralo tried to pay someone to take fake charges in attempts to get his own sentence reduced, but his plan never worked out. Fortunately for Ralo, he’s scheduled to be released next month. What do you think of 1090 Jake allegedly having $100K on his head? How about his claims that Ralo didn’t snitch?

Ice Spice Gets Bible From Fan After Betty Boop Show, Rubi Rose Thirsts For Her

by

Ice Spice recently held a pretty lewd and salacious Halloween performance in New Jersey recently, though we think the only real difference between this and other shows is the Betty Boop costume she was wearing. Either way, something about this performance had fans wanting her to reconnect a little more with some more… traditional values. Moreover, the Bronx rapper recently posted a good old King James Bible on her Instagram Story, which a fan gave to her after this concert. Of course, this falls in line with the sometimes misogynist and often controlling view that people have on how femcees should act and what they should promote.

If it wasn’t clear by now, then we don’t know what could convince you that she’s not here for any of that. Also, it’s worth noting that Ice Spice is also still getting used to the massive amount of fame she got in what feels like record time. After all, when you’re still traveling all the time and barely have time to settle down, it can be tough to think about how you want to present yourself and not giving into others’ wishes. So take that Bible with as much or as little energy as you want, Princess Diana; we won’t blame you.

Furthermore, it’s also hard to break away from successful formulas when even one of the Internet’s most popular current muses is lusting after you. Rubi Rose recently took to Twitter to thirst for Ice Spice, tweeting on Sunday (October 29) that she’s “sexy as f**k.” If you know anything about the Kentucky rhymer, it’s that people online shoot these same comments at her all the time. Real recognize real once again, or at least she’s acknowledging that the Like..? hitmaker deserves the confidence and satisfaction she feels.

Kanye West Stoically Posts Up With Smiling Fan In Saudi Arabia

by

Kanye West once again refused to smile for a fan selfie while in Saudi Arabia. The rapper agreed to take a picture with an unidentified VIP dressed in traditional garb. While the man is smiling happily, Kanye is neutral at best. Ye was in the Middle Eastern nation to attend the high-profile boxing match between Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou. He has spent the last few months living in Italy with his wife, Bianca Censori.

Fans were surprised to see West at the event, which led to some confusion over what the rapper was wearing. Eagle-eyed fans on social media spotted what appeared to be an old logo for the Premier League, England’s top soccer league, on West’s shirt. This led fans to speculate what black jersey with yellow stripes he was rocking. It appears that the most likely answer is a Liverpool goalkeeper’s jersey from the early 2000s.

Kanye was one of several celebrities who were in attendance for the showdown between champion boxer Tyson Fury and MMA veteran Francis Ngannou. Many experts believed that, given it was Ngannou’s boxing debut, this would be an easy victory for Fury. However, that wasn’t the case. Ngannou proved a valiant foe bell to bell, even knocking down Fury in the third round. Despite this, Fury’s experience won out, with the British boxer edging his Cameroonian opponent on points in a split decision.

Fury was humble in victory, a rare occurrence from one of the world’s best active fighters. “That definitely wasn’t in the script. He’s a very awkward man and he’s a good puncher and I respect him a lot. He wasn’t coming forward. He was standing back waiting for me. He’s given me probably one of my toughest fights in the last 10 years. He’s a good boxer, He’s a lot better than I thought he’d be and he gave me a good fight. I would like to do it again down the line, and I’m sure Francis would like to do it as well.” The fight should serve as a wakeup call for Fury, who has long complained about the lack of a competitive fight. He is next due in the ring later this year or early next year for a historic unification fight against Oleksandr Usyk.

Will Smith & Pepa’s Old Date Story Leaves Fans Demanding A Reunion

by

On a recent episode of Will Smith’s Class of ’88 podcast, he and Pepa recalled going on a date together back in the day. Obviously, their relationship didn’t pan out. Pepa went on to marry Treach while Smith tied the knot with Jada Pinkett Smith. Now, however, it appears as though both of them are single, leaving fans wondering what would happen if they gave each other another shot.

“Okay, you were very nice,” Pepa said of their date. “This was the date you won and beat us out. You was so happy. You was like let’s go celebrate. Then we were out and you saw a homeless person. You gave the homeless person $100. And it was so nice. Then, we went to the Hollywood sign.”

“I think you and Treach had been broke up for a minute,” Smith added. “So, in my mind when I was like trying to spit my game but I ain’t really have nothing. Cuz my concern was I was gonna get killed.” On top of the sweet story, Pepa previously opened up about her fling with Smith in a 2009 interview with Global Grind, revealing that she had some regrets. She had nothing but flattering things to say about Smith, and expressed curiosity about what her life would have been like had she chosen him over Treach.

“I thought Will was really cute, and we would hang out a lot on the road. He liked to take care of me and never let me spend a dime. He was that kind of guy, real generous,” she revealed. “I sometimes kick myself when I think about what could have been. He was so nice to me, but I really wasn’t feeling him. I guess I couldn’t appreciate a nice guy like Will Smith. He wasn’t thug enough. I was attracted to thugs and hoodlums. Will was too nice to me.”

Brent Faiyaz & Mariah The Scientist Take Over Our New “R&B Season” Playlist Update

by

It’s starting to get real chilly… well, in certain parts of the world, anyway, but it helps that our R&B Season playlist updates are always hot no matter the weather. Moreover, we rounded up the best of the best soulful cuts to drop this week, and we have some great albums and singles to go over. First up is Mariah The Scientist, who dropped her ten-track effort To Be Eaten Alive, a brief but nonetheless lush experience. Specifically, the track “Out of Luck” combines classic R&B melodies with a peppy and vibrant instrumental that is as groovy as it is sensual. With other appearances from her boo Young Thug, 21 S*vage, and Vory, it’s a well-rounded and above all tender offering.

However, speaking of features, there’s one placement on our R&B Season playlist update this week that wipes that category clean. In contrast to this last highlight, Brent Faiyaz just dropped the feature-heavy album Larger Than Life, and it’s… well, larger than life. Tracks like “Outside All Night,” with its dusty strings, trap-inspired beat, and vocal harmonies, provide some really creative interpretations within the genre. It helps, too, that A$AP Rocky and N3WYRKLA come through with some energetic and gorgeous guest contributions, respectively.

HNHH R&B Season Playlist: Stream

Furthermore, this week also graced our R&B Season playlist with some throwback vibes for the 2000s crowd. If you miss classic soul and hip-hop fusions that are glamorous, poppy, and confident, Mary J. Blige and Vado fulfilled your wishes with the single “Still Believe In Love.” On the flip side, if you connect more strongly with the atmospheric and intimate R&B of contemporary fame, Majid Jordan’s new song “Violet” might be right up your alley. We say “might” because it’s a seven-minute slow burn, but its wavy guitar lines, synths, and subtle singing is still potent enough to captivate.

Meanwhile, on the underrated releases end of things, we also have Chxrry22’s new project Siren, on which the woozy “Favorite Girl” with Offset is a clear standout. In addition, there’s LOONY’s new single “Counting Thunder,” whose instrumentation is a more rock and indie-inspired take on rhythm and blues songwriting. Let us know what your favorite track from this R&B Season playlist update is- and which ones we missed this week- down in the comments. Check out the playlist above and come back to HNHH for more great music releases each week.

Lizzo Honors Tina Turner With Halloween Costume

by

Lizzo chose to go old school with her Halloween costume, replicating an iconic costume from pop iconic Tina Turner. The black, bejeweled dress is reminiscent of Turner’s looks from the mid-70s. “Honoring Tina Turner❤️‍🔥,” Lizzo wrote on Instagram while showing off the costume in a very Turner-esque pose. Fans loved the costume, despite Lizzo’s recent controversies.

Turner passed away in May, at the age of 83. According to a representative of the artist. Turner died peacefully at home in Switzerland. Lizzo’s costume is synonymous with the 1970s and 80s, the era that Turner became a true household name. During the 1980s, Turner released two top-five albums and four top-five singles. Turner won eight Grammys during her lifetime and was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice. First, she was inducted alongside her ex-husband Ike in 1991. Then she was inducted as a solo artist in 2021.

Chloe Bailey Stuns As Catwoman For Halloween

However, Lizzo wasn’t the only person wowing their audience with their Halloween costume. Chloe Bailey stole hearts like a master thief as she dropped her Catwoman look for Halloween. A tight leather corset (with some bat-like embellishments) and thigh-high leather boots showed off Bailey’s bountiful curves and embraced everything we love about Selina Kyle. In the comments of Bailey’s Instagram post showing off the outfit, many people likened her to the somewhat infamous portrayal of the character by Halle Berry in 2004’s Catwoman. However, the white stitching on Bailey’s legs is also very reminiscent of Michelle Pfeiffer’s take on the character in the 90s.

However, as much as the costume has people dying to see Bailey adopt the feline mantle on screen, that might remain a dream for now. Zoe Kravitz currently holds the title of Catwoman, having brought the role to life in The Batman. Furthermore, Kravtiz is expected to reprise the role in the sequel that is in the works by director Matt Reeves. Despite this, maybe the internet can get its wish with Bailey taking on the role in James Gunn’s new DC universe.
