Big Scarr’s Girlfriend Calls Out His Family For Allegedly Shooting Music Video At Funeral

by

It’s only been a few weeks since Big Scarr tragically passed away at just 22 years old. According to reports from his family, the 1017 rapper died from an accidental overdose of prescription drugs.

Unfortunately, the weeks following his death have been messy. It all began when the late artist’s siblings publicly called out his label boss, Gucci Mane, for ghosting the family. This is allegedly after he offered to cover the costs of the funeral soon after his passing.

Now, the late rapper’s girlfriend is joining in to call out his family for their mishandling of his passing. Additionally, she goes on to accuse them of shooting a music video at the funeral service.

“Y’all really FAILED Alex as family & friends. Y’all aired ALL his personal business out, from the preparation to the funeral till afterwards. Wtf happened to privacy?? Flexing in his jewelry like it’s yours. PUT HIS SH*T UP! He not here to put it on you so don’t wear that sh*t. EMBARRASSING as hell,” she writes in the lengthy Instagram post on Monday (January 9).

“It’s only one BIG SCARR he can never be duplicated! Can’t even grieve in peace! Too much clout chasing going on! Sh*t disgusting!” she continues afterwards.

Furthermore, the family also accuses the “Wake Up in the Sky” rapper of asking for Scarr’s 1017 chains back.

However, Gucci’s wife, Keysha Ka’oir took to her Instagram account to defend her and her man. In the post, she subsequently shares a photo of a receipt from a funeral home for $10,000. “PAYMENT DIRECTLY TO FUNERAL HOME! Leave my husband alone!” she writes. “We also sent FLOWERS & not even a THANK U,” she says in a separate post to her Instagram Story.

Scarr’s sister, Alexandra Woods, says that they did receive the $10,000 payment. However, she says it’s not enough. “That’s why we said he didn’t help.. That wasn’t enough. My brother funeral was 60K in all,” she allegedly says in an Instagram Live.

The “Havin Fun” rapper’s father has since spoken out, defending Gucci Mane amid all of the drama. “Certain things were said that shouldn’t have been said. It was wrong. Man-to-man, I wish someone would’ve just dialed my number and talked to your guy, 100. All this out of control. Gucci and them the best thing to ever happen to my son,” he says explicitly in an Instagram post.

Scarr dropped his debut album, Big Grim Reaper, in April of 2021 and was a prominent member of Gucci’s label, 1017 Records. Rest in peace Big Scarr.

50 Cent Apologizes To Megan Thee Stallion For Trolling Her Over Tory Lanez

by

There were several takeaways from the Tory Lanez case, but a social media reaction from 50 Cent caused havoc. Fif is known for trolling his famous peers during some viral moment, but his criticism of Megan Thee Stallion while Lanez was on trial rubbed the public the wrong way.

In one post, he suggested that Megan was the new Jussie Smollett. “Damn i’m confused all this sh*t going around [shrugging shoulders emoji],” Fif wrote in the caption. “Don’t know what to think. LOL.”

In another, he shared a meme of Lanez chasing Megan while using a still from Boyz n the Hood. “Run Ricky,” he added as the image was from the scene of a character being shot during a drive-by.

People were outraged and accused 50 Cent of being insensitive. The usually unapologetic Power player did something out of the ordinary during his recent appearance on Big Boy’s Neighborhood—he apologized for his remarks.

“I’m gonna apologize to Megan Thee Stallion,” said Fif. “I said some things—and it was because on social media I posted things that, when she said, she was with [Gayle King]. She said, ‘Were you intimate with Tory Lanez?’ And she said, ‘What? No.’ I was like, ‘Ah, she lyin’.’”

From that moment, 50 Cent pegged Megan as a liar, so he decided to make fun of her.

“Little things would pop up and I wasn’t being supportive of her,” he added. “The only reason why I felt like I should apologize to her is because when I heard the phone conversation.” Fif was referring to the jail call between Lanez and Kelsey Harris. It convinced him that Megan was telling the truth.

While 50 Cent received a tongue-lashing from people across the globe, no one reacted as vehemently as Chika. She penned a series of tweets to the media mogul and others who agreed with his criticism of the Houston hitmaker.

Meanwhile, Lanez was found guilty of three counts related to the shooting. He is reportedly scheduled for sentencing on February 28.

Freddie Gibbs Has Four Albums In The Works

by

Freddie Gibbs is proving to have an overwhelmingly successful career in the rap game. As he ventures off into other creative endeavors such as acting, music has always been his main focus.

He’s apparently working on four different projects right now. The Indiana native made the announcement in a recent lengthy interview with XXL.

“Alchemist & Madlib ain’t goin’ nowhere, keep that in mind. Me and Boi-1da in the studio now, real heavy. I’m making the best music of my life, so it’s no reason to stop. And I’m the king of R&B, so I gotta do that [too],” he says in a part of the interview.

Of course, the “Crime Pays” rapper has full-length collaborations with both The Alchemist and Madlib in his discography. In 2014, he linked up with the Madvillain producer for Piñata. Five years later, the duo blessed fans with its follow-up, the 15-track Bandana.

In 2018, The Alchemist and Freddie linked up with Curren$y for a short, collaborative album, Fetti. The Indiana native and the decorated producer re-united in 2020 for a full-length release between just the two of them, Alfredo. They saw a nomination for Best Rap Album at the 2021 Grammy awards for their effort. However, Nas and Hit-Boy took the award home for the first album of their collaborative trilogy, King’s Disease.

Furthermore, the 40-year-old is still fresh off the release of his latest album, $oul $old $eperately. Serving as his fifth solo studio album, the project finds Gibbs making music with both his past and more recent sounds in one place.

Although he’s yet to make a full-length project with Boi-1da, the pair have collaborated in the past. Most recently, the Canadian producer has a production credit on “Space Rabbit”, off of $$$.

After implying that his 2022 album would be his final one, it’s certainly surprising to hear this news. “As of right now, I feel like I gave the world what it needed with $$$. I just wanna sit down and live life with my people…” he said during an AMA session on Twitter in October.

On Sunday afternoon (January 8), TMZ spotted the ASTROWORLD rapper stepping off of his private jet in L.A. for the first time since the split. According to the tabloid news site, a few expensive designer backs were accompanying him.

The news of their recent split began to pick up steam across social media just last week. According to reports, Jenner went to Aspen to spend time with family and friends over the holidays. Her and the “goosebumps” rapper were apparently supposed to be together for the most wonderful time of the year.

However, they are reportedly focusing on being co-parents to their two children. “This has happened so many times before, they’re known to be on again off again, but always remain friends and great co-parents,” says a source from Us Weekly.

Of course, the power couple were first together from April, 2017-October, 2019. In February of 2019, however, rumors accusing the Houston native of cheating began to circulate. He denied the allegations and they remained together for a several months, before reportedly deciding to take a break.

Only a few months later, in February of 2020, reports that they were attempting to rekindle their relationship made waves in the pop culture world.

In February of 2018, they welcomed their first-born child together, Stormi Webster.

Last February, the duo publicly announced the birth of their second child. After initially naming the kid Wolf Webster, they have since retracted and reportedly want to find a different name.

Do you think we’ll see Travis and Kylie getting back together again? Comment your thoughts down below. Finally, make sure you stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest music and pop culture updates.

Tyrese Defends Will Smith After Eddie Murphy Golden Globes Joke

by

It was a quip made in good fun, but Tyrese felt it necessary to stand up for Will Smith. The 2023 Golden Globes was arguably one of the most uncomfortable of its broadcasts to date, but Eddie Murphy lightened the atmosphere by joking about Smith. Murphy was honored at the ceremony with the Cecil B. DeMille Award, and during his acceptance speech, he mentioned Smith’s unfortunate Oscars moment.

The acclaimed actor gave aspiring creatives advice for success. Then, he added: “It’s very simple. You just do these three things: pay your taxes, mind your business… and keep Will Smith’s wife’s name out of your f*cking mouth!”

The joke was well-received, and quickly, outlets and social media sites shared clips. When Murphy spoke with Entertainment Tonight, he briefly touched on mentioning his famous friends.

“I’ve worked with Jada,” he said. “I love Will. I love Will, and I love Chris — and it’s all love.”

It seemed light-hearted enough, but Tyrese didn’t appreciate Smith continuing to be at the center of jokes. He shared a photo of himself with the Fresh Prince icon and praised the actor.

“I’m still team WILL SMITH there’s nobody on this earth that will ever influence me to ever have a change of heart towards the BIGGEST INFLUENCE in my life,” Tyrese wrote.”

That wasn’t all. The Fast & Furious star returned with a video about his thoughts. It seems he believes it’s time to leave the Will Smith Academy Awards jokes in 2022.

50 Cent Details Confronting Tyler Perry About Mo’Nique’s Career

by

50 Cent helped Mo’Nique pick her career back up but that only came after a difficult conversation with Tyler Perry.

At the time, Mo’Nique struggles to find work in the entertainment industry after failing to thank Lee Daniels during her Oscar speech for Precious. She also claimed that Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry blackballed her.

However, 50 Cent was adamant about reviving her career. He encouraged the Black film community to cast her in new films while pushing back against cancel culture.

“We only [supposed] to cancel shit that ain’t good for the culture. We need you to WIN again now MO’NIQUE,” he wrote.

During his recent interview on Big Boy’s Neighborhood, 50 Cent discussed helping Mo’Nique and his conversation with Perry following the incident. While the famed filmed director initially asked Mo’Nique to apologize for “blackballing” claims, Fif offered another perspective to Perry.

“Like, Mo’Nique, why is she cancelled? I had to revisit that,” he explained. He was confused that she was out of work for 13 years because of something she said.

“I know Tyler wouldn’t support that,” he continued. “He never told nobody not to work with her… When I talked to him, he was like, ‘Nah, I never told no one not to work with her.’ And I said, ‘But you’re Tyler Perry and you never told anyone to work with her.’ He was like, ‘I never looked at it like that.’”

50 Cent recalled telling Perry that, in this instance, he needed to recognize how powerful his influence is on the industry.

Mo’Nique will appear in the second season of STARZ’s BMF, executive produced by 50 Cent. Check out the episode 1 recap here.

Tyga Owes Exotic Car Company $1.3M Over Late Lambo & Bentley Payments: Report

by

A car company claims Tyga still hasn’t coughed up a default judgment from a 2016 lawsuit surrounding a pair of exotic vehicles.

Choice Motors Credit wants $1.3M from Tyga, stemming from a judge granting them default judgment. The company claimed Tyga was behind on payments for two high-end cars. The two vehicles listed are a 2013 Lamborghini Aventador and a 2014 Bentley Mulsanne.

A judge ordered to cover the costs of the vehicles — $390k for the Lamborghini and $91k for the Bentley.

Since he hasn’t paid yet, they want the “Rack City” rapper to pay the full amount including the interest incurred. Rather than $481K, Choice Motor Credit wants their full $1.3M from the rapper.

So far, Tyga hasn’t responded to the recent claims made by Choice Motor Credit.

Unfortunately, the Young Money rapper’s no stranger to trouble with car companies. In 2021, the rapper agreed to a payment plan after his Rolls Royce and Ferrari were repossessed. Midway Rent a Car, Inc claimed that Tyga owed $267K for the Ferrari and another $174K on the Rolls Royce. Though they admitted Tyga was making regular payments, he allegedly stopped after a few months.

Ultimately, Tyga and Midway Rent A Car agreed on a payment plan with the latter demanding a $43K payment for the Ferrari and an additional $84k on the Bentley. Both parties agreed to a settle in Dec. 2019 on a payment plan that would last 12 months or longer.

“The matter remains settled and Defendant is timely on his obligations or has asked and been provided accommodation due to financial hardship by deferring several monthly payments under the settlement agreement,” the legal documents read.

We’ll keep you posted on anymore updates surrounding Tyga and Choice Motor Credit.

by

Ice Spice is undeniably one of the hottest names in the game right now. Ever since the arrival of her viral single, “Munch (Feelin’ U)” last August, she’s demanded everyone’s attention through her catchy songs and charisma.

On Tuesday (January 10), a snippet of one of her unreleased songs began circulating on social media. The track is allegedly a collaboration with fellow Bronx rapper, Lil Tjay.

However, the 23-year-old caught wind of the unauthorized leak. Taking to her own Twitter account, she expresses her feelings about it. “stop leaking my sh*t lmfaooo this a bop tho,” she says in a quote tweet of the since-deleted snippet.

Since the aforementioned “Munch (Feelin’ U),” the Bronx native has dropped two other highly successful singles. The first of which is yet another viral hit in “Bikini Bottom,” arriving in October last year. The SpongeBob-inspired track continues to be popular on TikTok. Her most recent and her first release of 2023, is “In Ha Mood.”

Additionally, she also appears on one of Maryland rapper B-Lovee‘s singles from last year, “One Time.” J.I the Prince of N.Y and Skillibeng feature on the posse cut as well.

Ice Spice has yet to release her debut project. However, it seems as though she’s gearing up to release a six-song EP sometime soon.

“I’m about to put out an EP. It’s about to be, like, six songs. Bikini Bottom’s on there, and then there’s some that people haven’t heard. It’s gonna be a vibe. Visuals coming with it too,” she says while appearing on the Rap Caviar podcast in November.

It will certainly be interesting to hear her first project. Hopefully it arrives in the near future.

by

Chrisean Rock says that she didn’t hit Blueface with a bottle of Hennessy, as is being rumored on the internet. Instead, she has clarified that she struck her partner with a “glass cup.”

“It was a glass cup stop trynna play me cuz if I hit him with a henny bottle dat boy wouldn’t be alive…,” she tweeted on Tuesday.

The rumors stemmed from a clip taken from their reality show, Crazy in Love, which went viral on social media. A recent episode shows the damage of the alleged incident.

Chrisean appears to be trying to get glass out of the “Thotiana” rapper’s head.

“I’m getting the glass out,” Chrisean tells him.

“You can’t just rip it like that,” he replies.

“I’m not ripping it, I’m getting it out,” Chrisean responds, before adding, “I’m ’bout to go and get a vacuum. But I didn’t want to be that rough.”

The incident is the latest in a long line of examples of concerning domestic violence in their relationship. In the first episode of Crazy in Love, Blueface got into a physical altercation with Chrisean’s dad. Last month, Chrisean shared a photo of Blueface with two black eyes, which she claimed to have given him.

All the serious moments have caused fans to criticize the airing of Crazy in Love in the first place. Blueface responded to their haters in a post on Twitter, earlier this week.

“I love when I spot a mf who said me [and] rock doing a show was a bad idea but they watching the show full circle,” he wrote.

Check out the viral clip as well as Chrisean Rock’s response below.

Rihanna’s makeup artist Priscilla Ono discussed the look in a press release from Fenty Beauty.

We kept the eye minimal and mixed different rose gold tones on her lips, cheeks and body for an all-over sheen.”

As for A$AP Rocky, the rapper went with a “compact wool and satin jacket and trousers and brushed leather lace-up shoes,” according to a release.
