Maino Recalls His Ex-Girlfriend Getting Shot During Taxstone Shooting

Maino recently told his side of the story of Taxstone’s shooting, an incident amid a Troy Ave beef which hit the podcaster with a 35-year prison sentence for his role in the incident. During his latest appearance on VladTV with DJ Vlad, the host first clarified some false reports about the New York City rapper playing a role in the shooting. They posited that he actually had nothing to do with it at all, although the MC and Vlad revealed that he does have a personal connection to it. Apparently, his ex-girlfriend was also shot during this incident, and while he didn’t speak on what he saw as a witness to the shooting, he did contextualize his thoughts on the matter.

“I said exactly everything that I said about it already, I don’t want to keep harping on that,” Maino began. “And I don’t want to keep giving life to n***as that I don’t believe even deserve life, you know? Once you work out a deal with the prosecution and get on the stand for your own wrong deeds, to work out a deal with the prosecution and go get on the stand and point your finger at another n***a, it ain’t no me and you. We ain’t into nothing.

Maino Speaks On Taxstone Shooting With DJ Vlad

S**t happens, though, Vlad,” Maino continued. “That’s the thing, like… You know, I come from a world where we’ve had gunplay accidents, right? ‘Cause I see things on the Internet. ‘N***as shot your girl!’ I’m like, ‘What?’ She got hit by mistake, right? When I was 14 years old, I shot my friend in the stomach by mistake. We was playing with the gun, some s**t happened, and then I shot him in the stomach by mistake. I didn’t mean to shoot him.

“We still friends to this day,” Maino explained. “I’ve had a lot of gun accidents. That’s not the only [one]. S**t happens. When you playing in some type of life and you a young n***a, things can happen. When you outside and you involved in back-and-forths with other Black males, and you playing with guns and s**t like that, s**t can happen. Everybody knows that. Friendly fire is a thing, right? I’ve watched that happen many times. […] When you understand the context of that, then you can understand who I am and the way I deal with things. So when you talk about her getting hit, she wasn’t hit on purpose.”

Bronny James Thirsts Over Parker Whitfield With Flirtatious IG Comment

Bronny James couldn’t help but comment on a picture of Parker Whitfield on Instagram, labeling her “so pretty,” as caught by TMZ. The flirty remark comes after the two attended the Paris Olympics together, earlier this month. That move quickly sparked dating rumors on social media. While Bronny is the son of NBA star LeBron James, Parker is the daughter of the daughter of Salli Richardson-Whitfield and Dondré Whitfield. Outside of the trip to France together and the fact that several members of the James family follow Parker, further details on their relationship are unknown.

At the Paris Olympics, Parker joined Bronny as they watched his father, Steph Curry, and Kevin Durant, as well as the rest of Team USA, take home a gold medal. LeBron’s performance throughout the tournament ended up notching him the Olympics MVP award. It’s his third time winning a gold medal with Team USA.

Bronny’s Instagram comment comes after the Los Angeles Lakers selected him in the second round of the 2024 NBA Draft. The team’s owner, Jeanie Buss, recently said that the “sky is the limit” for the 19-year-old. “We have to let the kid have an opportunity to play and prove that he should be in a Laker uniform,” Buss said on the Petros and Money radio show. “And everything that we’ve seen from him and about him and his work ethic, just some of the things he’s had to overcome being the son of a big star. He works hard, he’s dedicated. He really wants to do this. And if we can have a roster of players with that same mentality, then I think the sky is the limit.”

Antonio Brown Reveals Why He Broke Up With Keyshia Cole: “You Know You Older Ladies”

Antonio Brown is one of the best wide receivers to ever play in the NFL. However, his antics were a huge reason for why he was held back from truly being the greatest ever. Overall, it is uncertain if Brown will even make the Hall of Fame. After all, Canton is probably worried about what Brown might say during his induction speech. He is someone who is extremely unpredictable and you never know what is going to come out of his mouth next.

That was certainly the case over the weekend when Brown sat down with the Aunt-Tea Podcast for a conversation with the likes of Tokyo Toni, Tia Kemp, and Karlissa Saffold. At one point during the conversation, Brown spoke on his relationship with Keyshia Cole. It was a short-lived relationship and Brown has his reasons why. Essentially, he claims that Cole wanted something serious and he didn’t. He also made the generalization that older women want to be “boo’d up.”

Antonio Brown Gives His Take

Tokyo Toni disagreed with Brown’s assessment. Meanwhile, fans over at The Neighborhood Talk felt like Brown was being disrespectful, especially since he is 36 years old and should be looking to settle down. “Dude you 36… almost 40. Calm down,” one person wrote. “He talking bout older ladies like he some young tender lol sir u unc as well,” said another. Needless to say, even in retirement, AB remains a controversial guy.

Let us know how you feel about this explanation from Antonio Brown, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that he has been doing too much as of late?

Floyd Mayweather Fires Ref In The Middle Of His Pointless & Underwhelming John Gotti III Rematch

Floyd Mayweather has been engaging in some truly ridiculous exhibition matches as of late. Overall, these matches do not have an official winner and most of the time, they are simply a money grab. That was certainly the case over the weekend as Mayweather had a rematch against John Gotti III. If you remember, the last time these two fought, Gotti tried to fight Mayweather in between rounds and was subsequently expelled from the match.

In this latest fight, it was a referee who was actually removed from the proceedings. As you can see in the clip down below, Mayweather was given a penalty by the match’s original ref. However, Mayweather got angry and began to yell at the official. Eventually, he fired the ref and told him to get lost. From there, a new ref came into the fold and the match continued. It was all very bizarre, but that is par for the course when it comes to these exhibitions where the stakes are simply too low.

Otherwise, fans may begin to turn on him even more.

Stunna Girl is still recovering from her bullet wound after getting shot in the chest, but it seems like she’s past the hard part of this process.

Another celebrity that spoke out about Stunna Girl was Ahna Mac, but for very different and sadly beef-related reasons. “I really told y’all God don’t play about me,” she said on Instagram. “Every b***h that do some evil nasty s**t to me, I tell them. Even if I don’t fight them, you’re gonna get it. Now this b***h got shot. Ain’t s**t funny about that, but I told b***hes karma is real. Like no shade, b***h, you be wishing death on people. I really hope you don’t make it through, b***h.”

Meanwhile, in other Stunna Girl news, she previously raised eyebrows for some wild Ray J and Wendy Williams claims. “Instead of constantly being worried about me, Ray J needs to focus on what he did to Wendy Williams. She ain’t been the same since u took her on that drug binge gang,” Stunna claimed on Instagram.

“Speaking of things I watched this past week, which I guess I’ll say watched, but I refused to watch again — the ‘Somebody Save Me’ music video is out and I did watch the thing,” Hailie said. “I watched it in its entirety. I don’t think I can do it again. I definitely cry every time I hear it at all. Between that and ‘Temporary’ … I mean, I can’t. I audibly sobbed I think for both songs, but especially ‘Temporary.’”

She continued: “Watching the [‘Somebody Save Me’] video back and listening to the songs, I feel like my parents did such a good job growing up where I didn’t realize how bad things were. But now, as an adult in hindsight, it’s so scary to think about. I think that’s why I get emotional so much just thinking that that could have happened. And obviously that’s the point of the song. But I will say, if you’ve ever lost an addict or loved one, I feel for you.”

GloRilla Takes Swift Action Following R-Word Controversy

One of Memphis’ leading ladies, GloRilla, has been one having such a fantastic 2024. It’s been a mini resurgence of sorts, with some people out there feeling that her career was on the downswing. However, those theories are currently out the window as she has put out hit after hit it seems. “Yeah Glo!”, “TGIF”, and “Wanna Be” are just a few to list off. Unfortunately, the uber-confident MC put herself in a little bit of controversy this past weekend. GloRilla posted a snippet of an upcoming single on her social media and in the preview, she drops the R-word.

Me and my b**** r******d,”, she openly states on what figures to be a song titled “Holon”. This led to heaps of backlash. “Why are we still using the R-word in 2024? I can’t get with this one”. “Ion like that R-word so it’s a no for me”. These are just a couple of disappointed reactions from fans online. Some were trying to defend her word usage. However, it is a very sensitive thing to say in any context. In fact, the Special Olympics says it’s even a form of hate speech.

So, with GloRilla seeing all of the hate and perhaps coming to a realization that she did make a mistake, she took quick action. According to AllHipHop, Big Glo took to Instagram to re-tease the future record with the new change, “Me and my b**** go naughty“. This has since pleased a lot of people and see this as a sign of maturity from the young artist. “Awwww she changed the lyrics just in case it did hurt someone’s feelings 👏🙌”, one user replies. “I love how you changed the R word out the song. I wasn’t offended but that’s real. Very mindful… very cutesy, very demurrrrrre”, another adds.

What are your thoughts on GloRilla removing the R-word from him recently teased track? Do you think this show’s that she’s mature? Or do you think she should’ve never used that word in the first place? Do you think this will go on to be another hit for her this year? Is the Memphis rapper having the best 2024 of any femcee? 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 GloRilla.

Drake Backtracks After Teasing Round 2 With Kendrick Lamar

Drake may have been the one to label the Kendrick Lamar battle as “good exercise” and step away from their back-and-forth, but he apparently is still itching for another round. Moreover, a lot of his new “100 GIGS” material, whether its tracks or its footage, is about his place in the rap game amid his many beefs this year. Not only that, but Drizzy’s social media activity via his @plottttwistttttt IG burner also indicate that he’s feeling quite boastful and confident. In fact, he posted a Story of Rasheed Wallace proclaiming: “We will win Game 2,” which obviously sent many fans into a frenzy. Even DJ Akademiks tweeted the same thing this morning (Monday, August 26).

However, it seems like Drake only wanted to make this bold prediction for just a little bit, as he deleted this Instagram Story quickly. As such, Kendrick Lamar fans and OVO supporters alike are now theorizing as to what he could be leading up to. As for the latter group, they think that the 6ix God will eventually release footage of him “plotting for a week and feeding the information” to K.Dot during their battle, which he claimed on “The Heart Part 6.” Another theory is that this isn’t literally about a second round, but rather about him rising above his many rap rivals and still seeing massive success despite their efforts.

Drake’s Since-Deleted Boast About “Winning Game 2”

Either way, it looks like Drake doesn’t want to boast about this “Game 2” any further, but the message was already clear. As far as other “100 GIGS”-related content, he also has been dropping some previously released videos as new footage. These include of Kanye West at OVO Fest 2013, plus Aubrey and J. Cole buying CDs of Born Sinner upon its release that year.

Meanwhile, there are also rumors that Kendrick Lamar will drop something very soon, but it’s anyone’s guess as to whether it will have anything to do with Drake. Some fans think that he’ll be more than happy to engage again, especially if his sworn enemy is on a high horse online right now, albeit a since-deleted one. Others doubt that the Compton lyricist will pick the carcass apart again, and argue that silence speaks volumes. We will see…
