Kanye West Changes IG Profile Picture To Kris Jenner

by

Whether he comes down hard or drops subtle jabs, Kanye West isn’t letting up on applying pressure when it comes to Kris Jenner. There was a time when Ye saw Jenner as his mother-in-law, but once his split with Kim Kardashian went public, Ye didn’t mince words about Jenner’s influence.

During his previous rants on social media, West has made it clear that he has a bone to pick with the Kardashian-Jenner matriarch. Most recently, the very mention of her name reportedly caused Jenner to request that the mogul not mention her in his posts.

It looks like he honored that request and instead, took aim via his Instagram profile. It’s there that Ye made his profile photo a picture of Jenner, and while this doesn’t violate any rules, it can certainly get under someone’s skin.

West isn’t the only person who has Jenner on their radar; Ray J has been at it for weeks in an effort to clear his name. According to the singer, Jenner has led a campaign to vilify him in connection to the sex tape he released with Kim all those years ago. Ray has long insisted that he had nothing to do with the tape’s release and that Jenner orchestrated the entire ordeal.

Yet, Jenner recently sat down for a late-night talk show polygraph examination where she answered questions about being involved. She denied culpability and the test allegedly determined she was being truthful. This caused Ray J to pull out his receipts, including signed contracts.

Jamie Foxx Calls Out Podcasters, Says They’re Not “Philosophers”

by

Jamie Foxx shared a rant about podcasters and people who have a “loud fcking [sic] mouth” on his Instagram Story, Tuesday, prompting fans to theorize who he could have him so upset. One popular suggestion was DJ Akademiks, whose recent comments on older rappers and Reginae Carter have had countless people upset with him as of late.

“Just cause they got a podcast…don’t make them a philosopher,” the actor wrote. “Just cause they gotta loud fcking mouth… don’t make them the voice of the people.”

“He talking about you fam,” one user commented on a repost of the story by Akademiks, while many others shared the same sentiment.

As for what has had DJ Akademiks be the target of so much hate, he recently said that older rappers are “dusty,” comments he has since said were taken out of context. He also controversially discussed the dating life of Reginae Carter, the daughter of Lil Wayne.

One podcaster Foxx likely isn’t upset with is Joe Budden, considering that the rapper-turned-podcaster recently called Foxx “the most talented man on the planet.”

Foxx recently starred in the Netflix film, Day Shift, which was released last month. He’s also expected to star alongside Will Ferrell in the 2023 film, Strays.

by

When Nick Cannon isn’t working one of his many jobs, he’s in full time daddy mode with at least one of his nine children. Earlier this week, the TV host took to Instagram to celebrate his “brave” daughter, Powerful Cannon, as she got a cast taken off her right leg. He posted a video of the process, along with a photo of the joyful one-year old. 

“This little girl is so brave and strong,” he wrote. “Finally getting her cast cut off after truly living up to her name as a Powerful Queen Super Hero! A scary journey for Daddy to say the least but Pow kept me from being an emotional wimp! She is my hero!!” The Masked Singer host’s post comes on the heels of his other baby mama, Bre Tiesi, clapping back at critics who suggested that she get a nighttime nurse for their baby, at Nick’s expense. 

“KEEP MY PARENTING, MY KID AND MY BABY DADDY’S NAME OUT UR MOUTH,” she shared on her Instagram Stories. “Nick is NOT my sugar daddy. Nick is MY F–KIN CHILDS FATHER THAT IS ALL. Watch your f–kin mouth when you speak on mine!” Nick has yet to comment on Tiesi’s post. The Wild N’ Out host seems to be focused on the upcoming season of his hit MTV show, as well as the birth of the latest addition his family, Onyx Ice Cole Cannon with model Lanisha Cole. “I vow to protect, provide, guide and love this child to the best of my abilities,” Nick shared in a photo his newborn baby girl. 

Elsewhere in his brood, Nick Cannon is currently expecting his third with model Brittany Bell, his tenth overall. Abby De La Rosa is also expecting again, also marking her third child with Nick — his eleventh overall.

Teddy Riley Says Soulja Boy Owes Daughter Nia Riley An Apology: “We Had An Altercation”

by

Their relationship has long been over, but it isn’t exactly out of mind. Soulja Boy and Nia Riley’s romance was introduced on a global scale years ago when they appeared on Love & Hip Hop Hollywood together, but quickly, their romance unraveled for a television audience. Soulja was said to have been cheating on his girlfriend, but more recently, Nia alleged that while they were together, the rapper abused her.

Nia claimed there was a time when he hit her while pregnant and shared a story of Soulja pointing a gun at her. Her father, Teddy Riley, caught up with VladTV and was asked about the accusations.

“Well, let me say this: Soulja Boy knows who I am and he knows I’m deep. He knows I’m very deep,” said the music icon. “We had an altercation, I was called a lot of names, and I got an apology. I’m lookin’ for an apology for what he’s done to my daughter. I’m lookin’ for that. As a man, I’m lookin’ for that and I think she deserves it.”

He continued: “‘Cause here’s someone who really stuck behind him, did [Love & Hip Hop Hollywood] for him, ’cause she thought this was gonna happen and it’s gonna be them. I watched them live together and I ain’t know all that was goin’ on.”

Things took a turn on Twitter as Vlad and Soulja had a brief exchange. Something prompted the media giant to write: “Hey @souljaboy, VladTV was already hot when we gave YOU your biggest interview. And unlike that SayCheese screenshot you showed, you don’t even have a top 20 interview on [VladTV’s YouTube]. Stop having weekly temper tantrums about me & sit down with me in person anytime.”

Soulja retweeted the message and added, “I made you, Vladimir.”

Akbar V’s Twitter Account Suspended After Cardi B Fallout

by

The internet was ablaze from morning until evening thanks to Cardi B and Akbar V’s epic blowout. The two women haven’t had much public contact with one another, but after Akbar landed herself a feature on Nicki Minaj‘s “Super Freaky Girl (Queens Mix),” she soon found her name being entangled with Minaj’s former foe.

There are some who have alleged that for days, Akbar has been subliminally shading Cardi with posts until finally, the Bronx rapper bit back.

The explosive fallout was witnessed in real-time by fans and admirers of both women. Cardi even shared a look at a sex tape of Akbar while Akbar countered by involving Offset in the drama. After she fired off a few insults, the Migos star jumped online to set her straight, denying allegations that he called her with angry messages.

In the follow-up, people noticed today that Akbar’s Twitter account has been suspended. This has caused all kinds of speculative reports and posts, as people weighed if Cardi deserved to be suspended, as well. Others suggested that Cardi’s team is in cahoots with the powers that be.

It is unclear if Akbar will receive her account back, but this isn’t the first time she’s dealt with matters like this.

Ari Fletcher Addresses Rumours About Moneybagg Yo, DreamDoll, Meek Mill, & More: Watch

by

On the latest episode of Dinner with the Don, 27-year-old Ari Fletcher had plenty of rumours to address, and the mother of one didn’t hesitate to get vulnerable when discussing everything from the current status of her relationship with Moneybagg Yo to the online gossip about her and DreamDoll’s alleged feud.

While working on cooking an at-home KFC Bowl with her friend Tuson, he asked The Don, “Are you single?”

Ari promptly looked up at him and responded with, “You know, I’m in between jobs,” with a shrug and a smile, earning a laugh from everyone in the room.

While that comment didn’t exactly answer the question, she would later reveal in the episode that she did, in fact, break up with her rapper boyfriend, although she didn’t specify exactly why. “I did break up with that motherf*cker,” she confirmed while stirring ingredients together.

“Yes, I did! Yes, I did, because he had me f*cked up!” she went on, although when asked if she plans to take her ex back, her friend chimed in and said, “Who knows what the future gon’ hold.”

At the same time, Fletcher clarified that the reason for her and the Memphis-born rapper’s drama has nothing to do with any infidelity. “That whole little thing, it wasn’t about no cheating, it didn’t have nothing to do with nobody else,” she clarified. “It was just between me and him.”

When she was asked about her friendship with DreamDoll – who she’s rumoured to have been beefing with lately – the YouTuber made it clear that while she has a lot of love for Dream, she’s “straight on her right now,” but that doesn’t necessarily mean they’re on the outs.

As for the gossip floating around that Fletcher had found herself a soccer player to spend time with after declaring herself a single woman, she shut those down quickly. “No, I do not know that man, y’all,” she insisted.

“Seriously, we just went to a soccer game because it was something that we’ve never done before, and I guess the passes we had just so happened to be his,” the model explained.

Finally, the Chicago native addressed the Meek Mill speculation that arose during New York Fashion Week, after the two celebrities posted up separately in similar-looking hotel rooms. The “FWM” artist had previously denied the claims shortly after they wound up on various blogs, and now Fletcher is doubling down on his response.

On September 16, George Albert Stone III, better known as EST Gee, dropped his latest project I Never Felt Nun. The 21-track album features guest appearances from hip-hop headliners Machine Gun Kelly (“Death Around The Corner”), Future (“Shoot It Myself”), Jeezy (“The Realest”), Bryson Tiller (“Sabotage”), and Jack Harlow (“Backstage Passes”). 

The project has been well received so far – particularly the Harlow and MGK tracks – and to celebrate their success, George came through with a luxurious surprise for his fellow artists.

In the past, GQ Magazine had EST Gee sit down to examine his astounding collection of chains, rings, watches, and more.

The Louisville rapper began by showing his “G” pendants and chains, priced at around $10,000 each. His newest piece at the time was a custom letter pendant in yellow gold and covered in round-cut diamonds, engraved with the letters “EST.” Gee explained to viewers that the letter “G” represents the latter part of his name and the “EST” stands for “Everybody Shine Together.”

In addition to these, the 28-year-old owns an array of Cuban links and baguettes; most of the former are made of entirely white gold, ranging in price from $35,000, all the way to $65,000.

Many of these chains also feature round-cut diamonds in various patterns, with his most expensive pieces weighing in at a full kilo. As for his baguette chains, they are slightly smaller and tend to be either white gold or yellow gold.

George didn’t forget to open wide and show off his permanent grill, which he said came in at $24,000. Fully diamond in a honeycomb pattern, the rapper is not afraid to flash his 24k smile to the world.

EST Gee will be sure to add some new pieces to his collection following the release of I Never Felt Nun.

Cardi B & Akbar V’s Explosive Feud: Everything You Need To Know

by

It all began with a subtweet.

As she rang in the last week of September, Cardi B came across a shady tweet from Atlanta-based rapper Akbar V, leading her to subliminally clap back. At the time, the mother of two likely had no idea of the storm of drama that would proceed in the following hours.

Akbar V Works with Nicki Minaj

It’s no secret that Cardi’s star has shone brighter than Akbar’s for most of their careers, especially since Bardi won Grammy for Best Rap Album with her debut project. However, Akbar’s felt especially extra braggadocious recently after landing a feature alongside names like BIA and JT on Nicki Minaj’s “Super Freaky Girl (Queen Mix).”

The Barbz and the Bardi Gang have long pinned their favorite artists against one another. Now that Akbar made it clear where she stands in the battle between Cardi and Nicki, it’s not exactly surprising to see her feud with the “Be Careful” artist, though we didn’t foresee things getting this catty.

Subliminal Twitter Shade

Akbar’s initial tweet from yesterday’s blowout read, “If @chartdata ain’t say it we ain’t believing the CAP.” The light Twitter jab came just as Cardi B and GloRilla’s “Tomorrow 2” hit #1 on Apple Music. The tweet led many to believe that she was throwing shade at Bardi. “Count all the times Chart Data posted [you],” the Grammy Award-winning rap diva clapped back.

Despite the fact that the two hadn’t actually @’d each other yet, Cardi moved the feud offline. Cardi gave her new nemesis a call – something Akbar V clearly wasn’t pleased about. “Who gave this ho Cardi B my number?” she asked in another now-unavailable post. “Gotta be one of y’all weird ass hoes?”

Clearly, the phone conversation didn’t solve much. The Invasion of Privacy artist was back to complaining about “hoes that throw rocks and hide their hands” by Monday mid-afternoon (September 26). “Been subtweeting me for months and now you wanna make it about another woman as a shield. Stand on your shit!!!” the “Hot Sh*t” rapper urged Akbar.

Parenting Police and Sex Tape Scandals

After some urging from Cardi, the “Real Atlanta” artist took her foe’s advice. The two began engaging in an all-out Twitter war, pulling out all the stops. The two traded bars regarding such parenting techniques and shared screenshots from previously leaked sex tapes.

“See the difference between me and [you is] I had n***as wanting to put babies in me while I was in the jungle,” Playboy‘s Creative Director wrote to Akbar V. “But I said to myself I won’t put my kids in the same hoods I was raised in, let alone ABANDON THEM.”

As things became increasingly heated, the “WAP” hitmaker took things to a place that some would describe as “too far.” She shared footage from Ak’s previously leaked sex tape on her social media page. “Tell me that you love me,” the Georgia native can be heard requesting of her partner in the clip – a line that Cardi has gone on to make fun of incessantly.

Akbar first expressed anger and disappointment at her fellow rapper’s decision to post the clip (especially since her children might see it again). However, internet sleuths showed Cardi that she previously used an image from the sex tape as cover art. The revelation caused the Cardi Tries host to question the sincerity of Akbar’s desperate plea for the video’s removal.

Offset’s Beef With Lil Baby

It was bad enough that the two women felt the need to bring their children into their beef. When the “Female Kanye” brought CB’s husband, Offset, into the conversation, things really started to pop off.

“Y’all check on Cardi’s hubby, [he] keep getting caught cheating cause her head trash and p*ssy week,” Akbar taunted. “P*ssy weak? Baby, you the one [with] five baby daddies,” Cardi clapped back.

“You gave Thug head and the head wasn’t even good enough for him to stick his d*ck in you. He told you [you] gotta lose weight first. You lost the weight and [he] STILL DIDN’T F*CK YOU [crying laughing emojis].”

After Offset’s name unwillingly entered the chat, he felt compelled to share some words with Akbar. “Somebody check on Offset, he still ain’t got his chain back from #4PF,” she wrote.

If you’re not familiar, AV was referring to the “Ric Flair Drip” artist’s apparent feud with Lil Baby, which most recently made headlines just last month as Baby seemingly threw shade at Set over his lawsuit aimed at Quality Control over his artist rights.

The Migos member claims that he bought himself out of his deal with the label at the beginning of 2021. Subsequently, P and Quality Control released a statement to Rolling Stone denying his claims. “Not only are the accusations in this lawsuit false, they are totally detached from reality. Offset remains a part of QC,” it read.

Offset Joins The Chat

Seeing Lil Baby’s name associated with his clearly didn’t please the 30-year-old rapper as he hopped on Twitter to aggressively lash out at Akbar.

The mother of five alleged that she received a call from the father of five, but he quickly denied it. “Bitch that’s not my number,” ‘Set clapped back. “Why would I call you when bitch already handling you lame ass hoe?”

“Offset calling talking bout [you] shouldn’t have put me in it n*gga, all I got to do is make one call. Three letters, #4PF. [You] gonna shit on yourself like [you] did behind compound,” Akbar alleged in reference to a rumor that the “Bad & Boujee” rapper was attacked by Lil Baby’s crew in 2020.

From the sounds of things, the Atlanta-based artist plans to craft a diss track, which Cardi teased will only “chart on Twitter.” Seeing as Akbar’s account is still suspended, though, it’s unlikely that even that will happen anytime soon.

Back To Business

For the husband and wife’s part, they shut down the “Cold Summer” artists’ claims about their past fidelity struggles the best way they know how – with some NSFW Instagram snaps.

“I fight for my bitches and I’m fighting over d*ck too,” the Hustlers actress captioned the photo dump, which finds her looking as glamorous as ever in a backless black dress, showing off her bodacious behind and colorful tattoo as she leans in close to her longtime partner.

Who do you think would have a better diss track, Cardi B or Akbar V? Sound off in the comments below, and tap back in with HNHH later for more hip-hop news updates.

Boosie Looks Back On Life Before Prison

by

Baton Rouge rapper Torrence Hatch, A.K.A “Lil Boosie”, recently went on Revolt and reflected on some of the decisions he’s made in the past. When asked if he would have made different choices the rapper responded with: “I woulda done everything different. I woulda took rapping serious, like, 8-9 years ago. I woulda done it totally different if I could take it back, ’cause I ain’t wanna go to jail man.”

On October 22, 2008, Hatch was arrested after police found marijuana and a Glock in his car. Boosie pled guilty to the drug charges and was sentenced to two years in prison.

The rapper was electronically monitored and placed under house arrest between the time of his plea and sentencing; unfortunately for the 39-year-old, his sentence was doubled once authorities found out he had broken house arrest, thus, violating his probation. In the summer of 2010, Boosie was also charged with first-degree murder. He was 26 at the time.

In late 2009, during his last few hours as a free man, the controversial figure would sit down and talk about his life decisions before being put behind bars soon after. “They’re treating me on who they think I am,” he said at the time. “They judging me on Boosie Bad Azz, not Torrence Hatch.”

The “Wipe Me Down” recording artist explained to Revolt that there’s a difference between the music he makes and the life he actually lives. He also went on to explain the reason for breaking his house arrest, stating that he was sued by promoters for missing his concert dates and was worried that if he missed more shows he wouldn’t have the money to support his family. Boosie was a father of seven at the time, with one more on the way.

“I had to go do these two shows these last two days to feed my family,” Hatch recalled.

The Louisiana-born star is 39 now, and while he wishes he would have done things differently in the past, he understands that he put himself in those situations. “I ain’t wanna go to jail bro. But that’s how it goes, you know? I chose that life,” Torrence admitted during his Revolt interview.

That said, prison may not have been a complete waste of time for the rapper. Boosie has since gone on record to say he wrote over 1,000 songs while locked up, check out more on that here.

Rachel Dolezal’s OnlyFans Account Is A Tribute To Rihanna’s Fenty Lingerie

by

Rihanna’s name has been everywhere over the past few days after the 34-year-old shared the exciting news on Sunday (September 25) that she’ll be performing at next year’s Super Bowl Halftime Show.

Since then, we’ve seen the Bad Gal hit up the studio with her boyfriend A$AP Rocky to prepare for her upcoming return to the stage, and now, she’s being linked to a wildly unexpected place – Rachel Dolezal’s OnlyFans account.

On Monday (September 26) evening, leaked photos surfaced online from the controversial activist’s NSFW account, revealing that some of the content she shares on her profile finds her posing in lingerie from Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty line.

“Welcome to my OnlyFans page, where I post creative content and interact with fans more than on any other platform,” Dolezal’s bio reads. “Subscribers get to see how my sensual side pairs with my creative spirit through intimate images inspired by colour, light, and lingerie on the weekends.”

After the photos surfaced online, several social media users expressed shock over seeing the 44-year-old acting so provocatively, but as TMZ reminds us, she’s not exactly a stranger to controversy.

As you may remember, Dolezal was swept up in the middle of major backlash in 2015 after she was outed for posing as a Black woman for years, despite being born to two white parents.

After the truth came to light, the OF creator stepped down from her position with the NAACP, although it’s been noted that she still openly identifies as an African-American woman.
