Lil Durk Poses With His Money

by

When it comes to the current generation of hip-hop leaders, few had more curious yet inspiring trajectories than Lil Durk. While he’s been in the rap game for over a decade, it wasn’t until recently that he became a superstar in the genre and truly saw the career heights he envisioned. Moreover, his grind continues through features, tours, community efforts, and more when he’s not dropping a new album (although that’s going to change soon). Still, it’s understandable that he would want to celebrate amid the hustle. As such, he recently posted some pictures on Instagram of him posing with huge stacks of cash, captioning the post with “all the lames clicking up …Smurk said it it’s stamped.”

However, as much as he flexes his material possessions, it doesn’t take away from other, more profound aspects of his life. For example, he recently opened up about his therapy process to XXL during an interview. “Being more open,” Durkio said of his goals and what he’s looking forward to in his future personal life. “Being more open to letting [my new manager] Pete [Jideonwo] in,” he said. “Moving certain people out the way. That’s the best feeling. Therapy, the kids, the new team, all that. But the best feeling is really just starting over.

“I got a therapist so I cope different,” Lil Durk continued. “I don’t show emotion. So, some people will be like, ‘Man, you can’t hold it in.’ And I just can’t talk to nobody usually. You gotta be careful how you tell people, what you tell people, because they can use it against you. They can find out your weaknesses. So now, when I talk to the therapist, then it start getting more emotional. But like somebody on the street, you’ll never even see me shed a tear.

Furthermore, the interviewer also asked him whether his proximity to death, even in the music industry, is what led him to seek therapy. “Nah, I think I had to go to therapy fresh out the womb,” Smurk remarked. “We learn to hold all our s**t in. S**t, I’mma keep it 100 with you, it wasn’t my forte when people mention it to me. I’m stuck how my pops think. I challenged myself to go to therapy. S**t, that’s like a whole new step in a whole new generation. That’s growth.” With that growth comes a new perspective on your old lifestyle, and so he balances healing with taking pride in his accomplishments.

Chris Brown Posts Up With His Three Kids

by

Chris Brown just warmed fans’ hearts with a picture of him and his three children: daughter Royalty, 8, son Aeko Catori, 3, and daughter Lovely Symphani, 1. Moreover, the children laid in Brown’s arms as he put on a goofy smile for the snap, and people gushed over their cuteness. Of course, this pic came amid the R&B star’s continued presence in the headlines for many more reasons. For example, many fans took note of his lewd and provocative choreography at Rolling Loud Thailand, which got fans either feeling sweaty or slightly uncomfortable.

However, a lot of discussion around Brown these days centered around his controversial collaborations, as well. One of these was “Freaky Friday” with Lil Dicky, who remarked on the race-swapping concept of the track and reckoning with Brown’s history of abuse. As a big fan of the “Yeah 3x” singer, Dave said that he felt touched by Brown giving him props, and said that song opened many doors for him. Also, he said that he “knows his heart is good” at the end of the day, referring to people criticizing him for working with a past abuser.

In addition, Chlöe addressed her fans’ backlash to her collab with Chris Brown for similar reasons. She remarked in a podcast interview that she “always just [wants to] let the music speak for itself. And to be honest, no matter what I do, people always find things to say about it, so I’m used to it. I just choose to ignore it. People have every right to their opinions, freedom of speech, and it’s up to me to choose what I give my attention and energy to. Everything I’m doing is ordained by God, and I’m walking in my purpose, and anybody who has a problem with that can kiss my booty.”

Meanwhile, the 33-year-old just let fans know that another collaboration is on the way, this time with Ciara. “ME AND @ciara got some [fire] coming,” he shared to Instagram. Time will tell whether reception to it differs from those recent examples. No matter what side of that debate you fall on, at least it seems like his children are by his side. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Chris Brown.

Ice Spice Post Removed By IG For Using Her Real Name

by

Instagram took down a post from Ice Spice, this week, that featured the rapper’s real name, Isis. She complained about the move from the social media platform on Instagram, earlier this week. “Ayo Isis,” the original post read with an eyes emoji. “Can’t type my name is ode,” Ice Spice wrote while sharing the news on her Instagram Story.

As for Instagram’s explanation, the site shared the following message with Ice: “It goes against our Community Guidelines on violence or dangerous organizations. Our guidelines encourage people to express themselves in a way that’s respectful to everyone. If you think we made a mistake, you can ask us to review our decision.” They clearly mistook Ice Spice’s use of her own name for that of the infamous terrorist group of the same name.

They also cited examples of the types of content they typically remove. They listed “Photos or videos of extreme graphic violence,” as well as “Photos or videos that encourage violence or attacks on anyone based on their religious, ethnic or sexual background,” and “Specific threats of physical harm, theft, vandalism or financial harm.”

Ice Spice’s original post featured a picture from the music video to her song, “Princess Diana (Remix),” featuring Nicki Minaj. The original track was featured on Ice’s debut EP, Like..?, back in January. The remix is the second that Ice Spice has worked on this year, following her appearance on PinkPantheress’ “Boys a Liar Pt. 2.” That song earned the young New York rapper her first top three song on the Billboard Hot 100. Ice Spice is undoubtedly hoping for similar success with her latest remix.

Of working on the track, Nicki wrote on Twitter over the weekend, “GM guys. This song has recently been proven by an independent study to increase your dopamine leading to a better quality of life- curing anxiety & depression within the first 90 mins they said.”

Saweetie Stuns In Red Dress, Shows Off Curves On Instagram

by

Once again, Saweetie stunned her Instagram followers with some new pictures showing off her body in a red dress. Moreover, she notably doesn’t show her face, leaving herself up to the imagination while still impressing many with her outfit. Furthermore, she included some videos and photos of her walking around in it, ingeniously storing what looks like a Chanel lipstick, and raising a glass for herself. What’s more is that the 29-year-old is still hard at work both finalizing and teasing her debut studio album. While she’s tried to update fans whenever she can, a recent E! News interview illuminated her thought process a little more.

“I feel like a debut album is not something you just put out,” Saweetie remarked as she spoke on Pretty B***h Music and its constant delays. “It’s not something you play with. I’m a Cancer so I like to overthink sometimes, but I think you have to be really careful with that and I take my art really serious. I’ve been through a lot of interesting experiences. So, I wanna put that all into my album in the most artistic and organic way.”

Saweetie Is Looking Glamorous In New IG Post

Still, another aspect that the “Icy Girl” grappled with recently is how many have interpreted and perceived her fame. Not only that, it’s especially the case considering her state of origin. While she went through some career ups and downs, she feels as motivated and confident as ever to own a title that she feels she doesn’t deserve to self-proclaim. “I don’t want to self-proclaim the ‘Queen statement,’” Saweetie told Bootleg Kev. “But when I’m in certain cities or certain areas, they’ll just call me this and call me that. I’ve been called the ‘Queen of California’ and many queen things. It’s not something I’m trying to title, that’s why I had another voice say it on my [‘Single Life’] project. I don’t like it when people self-proclaim.”

Meanwhile, Saweetie recently appeared on an episode of the game show “That’s My Jam,” facing off karaoke-style against Will.I.Am. Unsurprisingly, they rapped along to many classic hip-hop tracks and seemed to have a good time. Hopefully the rapper’s next musical output won’t be restricted to a TV show. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest on Saweetie.

Rick Ross Is Ready For A Hoedown In His Cowboy Boots

by

Rick Ross is usually one to show off his drip, but this is a whole new level of style. Moreover, he recently posed for some pictures in some cowboy boots, an accompanying cowboy hat, and his recently purchased (and massive) Jesus piece. With that, the Miami rapper showed off quite the fit, with many also commending him for his weight loss. More importantly, though, the fit is fitting for him to walk around his Fayetteville, Georgia property, which he refers to as “The Promise Land.” Given his recent cattle-wrangling activity, it seems like Ross is ready to tailor his style aesthetically to his surroundings.

Furthermore, the 47-year-old recently made headlines because his neighbor complained that his buffalo wandered into her yard. Not only that, but they apparently messed up some of her garden and she claimed they posed a threat to her young family members. However, Rick Ross was quick to clarify that his buffalo aren’t violent, and thanked the community for helping to get them back to his estate. With that, he seemed to fit into the boots and hat a bit after achieving classic cowboy status.

Rick Ross Shows Off Cowboy Boots

“Everybody that wanted a statement and a response for my bulls, my cows [and] a couple of buffaloes that got away in the community, this is my response,” Rick Ross remarked in a video. “I always return stray animals. Make sure to always keep a collar on your animal. And mine don’t have a collar ’cause you know it’s mines. So when you see my buffalo, give it a carrot. Give it an apple. They’re so kind and so peaceful. Thank everybody for watching. Thank everybody for making sure all my animals got back into the Promise Land…all my neighbors, Fayetteville, y’all the best, boss.”

Meanwhile, Ross also recently worked on his kickboxing skills, which isn’t particularly cowboy-like behavior, but a wanderer’s got to defend himself. “You see, when I go wild, ‘cause I don’t want to train just to be training in the streets,” he said in a training video. “Ain’t no – all that tap s**t. I go buck wild. So if you don’t know me, when I nut up on you, it’s what I’ma say, which is gonna be horrendous… So when I start training at this intensity level, I take my shoes off, so I don’t kick my homie like that. Another n***a, I ain’t gon’ spare you, I’ma kick you. I’ma kick you and punch you in the head. So come on, n***a.” Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest updates on Rick Ross.

Lil Tjay Is In Album Mode, Hints At A Broken Heart

by

As he previously teased, Lil Tjay is officially in album mode, although it seems things have changed in his life since his last update. Moreover, he recently posted some pictures of him in Denmark, plus a TikTok of a hyped crowd watching him perform in Hamburg, Germany. However, his caption hints at him missing a special someone by his side, which might just motivate him even more to bring fans heat. “I USED 2 WANNA CEE THE WORLD WIT YOU… ALBUM MODEEEE,” he captioned his slideshow. Maybe that’s just to build conversation around his drop, and if so, it’s certainly working.

Amid his European tour, many of his rap peers gassed him up in the comments, like Scorey and PGF Nuk. What’s more is that the hinted heartbreak might even be a reference to some of his earlier material. Furthermore, in the chorus of his track “In My Head,” he raps, “These feelings been stuck in my head, ain’t too big on love, but with you, I’m all for it. See the world, me and you, we can tour it.” As such, whether it’s a direct reference or not, maybe he’ll take a different thematic approach to love on his album’s new cuts.

Lil Tjay Hints At Being Disappointed, But Excites Fans With Latest IG Post

However, that doesn’t mean that the New York MC is completely averse to love at this point- or that he dodged rumors of a romance between him and Ice Spice. For those unaware, these speculations sparked when he gifted his “Gangsta Boo” collaborator a Richard Millie watch around Valentine’s Day. Even though many fans were excited about a new Big Apple couple, sources close to Spice said that it was just a gift to celebrate their collab. Of course, the song saw massive success, so it is worth a $150K time reader, but the timing ironically suggested something deeper.

Meanwhile, that caption could also refer to friends in his inner circle not being around anymore, albeit for very different reasons. Recently, the 21-year-old exposed someone in his camp for snitching on him. Whether it’s for heartbreak or betrayal, at least Tjay seemed to distract himself from those feelings with a great tour around Europe. Regardless, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Lil Tjay and his next album.

Rubi Rose Posts Stunning Thong Pics Showing Off Backside

by

Rubi Rose is building quite the reputation these days for many different reasons, but one of those is that people can’t seem to quench their thirst for her. Moreover, she recently posted some pictures of herself in a thong that left commenters stunned. Whether it’s on a boat or on a jet ski, she looks gorgeous from every angle. What’s more is that fellow rappers like Lola Brooke, Doechii, Flo Milli, and many more couldn’t help but leave some comments in awe. Given how much she’s been in the news cycle recently, it’s no wonder many are going crazy over her looks, career trajectory, or otherwise.

For example, GloRilla recently gushed over Rose’s looks while talking to Angela Yee. Not only that, they specifically discussed the idea of threesomes, which Glo and Yee said they’ve never been in. When identifying her ideal partner in that situation, the Memphis MC said it would have to be her, another girl, and her man (but not her main man). Then, she said that she would want that third partner to be someone who looks like Rubi Rose, indirectly shooting her shot with her.

Rubi Rose Is Teasing Her Admirers In New IG Post

Also, the Kentucky-born MC was the subject of dating rumors with French Montana, who many think is yet another suitor. Furthermore, these speculations stem from a dinner date that people spotted the two on, and they quickly theorized. However, she shut these rumors down with a simple and pointed message, and a lot of her admirers probably let out a sigh of relief at her availability. “Dang… i can’t go out to eat now,” she remarked on Twitter to her many followers. For what it’s worth, the Bronx rapper hasn’t responded to these rumors of him dating the 25-year-old.

Despite these longing feelings for Rubi, she’s dealing with drama surrounding her ex DDG and her claims that he cheated on Halle Bailey with her. On his end, he recently responded to this drama in diss-track fashion. “H*es screenshotting, that s**t lame. Keep her on the side, she could never be my main,” he rapped on the track. “She just wanna make it, she be f***ed for the fame. Posting pictures naked, baby, you should be ashamed. Tell them n***as do they research, I could fall off and come right back like it’s rebirth. Don’t believe the Internet, it’s not that b***hes t-shirt.” Regardless of that feud, come back to HNHH for updates on that and the latest from Rubi Rose.

Cardi B Shows Off Backside In Latest Instagram Post

by

Cardi B’s latest Instagram post saw her show off her backside and curves in typical Cardi fashion: by impressing the whole comments section. Moreover, she posted a picture looking back and holding herself in position, captioning her post with “Nothing on me light.” Of course, this not only inspired passionate reactions from stunned fans, but also other people in the music industry. As one of the most dominant and popular artists when it comes to social media, it’s hardly a surprise to see people show Cardi love. However, if there’s one thing that she should also get credit for, it’s her versatility and honesty as a public figure.

“SHEESH,” Latto commented with a thirsty emoji. Also, Mariah The Scientist chimed in, who usually draws eyes to her not just for her great music, but her occasional thirsts for Young Thug. Still, it seems like her eyes were all on Cardi this time. “I want u to be mine and no I’m not playing,” she commented on the “Hot S**t” MC’s sultry image. Between her incredible feature run recently, her other business ventures and partnerships, and just being a fun person to follow, the 30-year-old is living large.

Cardi B Is Proud Of Her Gains

Not only does she enjoy (and is clearly proud of) the fruits of her success, but she also speaks earnestly about correcting her wrongs. Recently, she opened up on multiple occasions regarding her community service work. “Community service has been the best thing that has happened to me,” she tweeted. “Almost like a spiritual journey because sometimes I leave these centers in tears. Those people that we leave behind they just need somebody to talk and a lil push and YOU might be able to change their life forever.”

“Part of growing up and maturing is being accountable for your actions,” she stated to PEOPLE. “As a mother, it’s a practice that I am trying to instill in my children, but the example starts with me. I’ve made some bad decisions in my past that I am not afraid to face and own up to. These moments don’t define me and they are not reflective of who I am now. I’m looking forward to moving past this situation with my family and friends and getting back to the things I love the most — the music and my fans.” Regardless, come back to HNHH for the latest sultry snaps and more updates from Cardi B.

Tay-K Shares Heartfelt Letter From Prison On Instagram

by

After years behind bars, every glimpse we get into Tay-K’s case is a treat for longtime fans. Even though his incarceration is highly debated for many reasons, it’s still heartening to see an artist continue connecting with fans despite their circumstances. Moreover, the Texas MC recently posted a letter he wrote from jail reflecting on his journey. While he spoke of his struggles and frustrations, the 22-year-old’s words served more to inspire and provide a positive outlook.

“Yo!” he excitedly began his letter. “I’m sitting here thinking about all my fans, I love and miss y’all. I know there’s a lot that I haven’t directly spoke on and there are many things my fans know. But I’m not sure everybody else does. I’ve been here for five [and a half] years now and I feel indebted to y’all for going so crazy behind me. It’s still crazy to me that I never had a chance to live outside as an adult, I’ve been locked up and in and out of the ‘justice’ and CPS system for my whole life.

Tay-K’s Prison Letter

“Not sure if y’all know, but I got sentenced as an adult to 55 years in prison for a crime where I wasn’t even the shooter, I wasn’t even alleged to have a gun,” he continued. “I was never even suspected to have pulled a trigger or hurt anyone. I was young and didn’t have no positive figures around. Now that I’m older, I know how important focusing on leading by example is. I love my fans and I don’t want anyone to think I’m promoting or really recommending violence.

“That’s why I really dedicate a lot of my time in here to using the success of my music to have a positive impact on other young artists,” he concluded. “Even if it’s something small like taking a phone call or writing a letter to keep them positively inspired. Regardless of my situation, the movement is Eternal. #RR4L #FREEM3. Perpetually, Tay-K.” Regardless of his case’s status, come back to HNHH for the latest news and updates on Tay-K.

Kanye West Deletes New Instagram Post, Leaving Fans Confused

by

Especially since he quickly deleted the post, Kanye West’s latest Instagram post left many scratching their heads. On Friday (March 31), he posted a picture of a man with no caption, and many in the comments had no idea who he was. Thanks to some sleuths and more knowledgeable sources online, fans identified the person as Mark Miner, Vice President and Creative Director at Adidas. As of writing this article, it’s unclear why the Chicago rapper would post this, and we’re probably not getting answers anytime soon. However, considering the recent news that a former Yeezy employee sued Ye, maybe there’s something deeper in his post.

Furthermore, Dora Szilagyi, who claimed to be a Director of Product Innovation at the company, also claimed that she never got a severance package that the mogul owed her. Not only that, but she says he made her quit her job at Adidas and would get $275,000 if fired without cause. Upon that happening in December of 2021, Szilagyi allegedly never received the package according to her lawsuit. In fact, she believes Kanye never intended to pay her in the first place, just rope her in to leave a more secure position.

Kanye West’s Deleted IG Post

Given Adidas’ massive profit losses, unsold inventory, and other complications as a result of them dropping Ye, maybe this post was another way to publicly instigate them back into a conversation. However, the fact that he deleted it so promptly indicates that something may have happened behind the scenes. As his social media page proved to be quite erratic this week with a bizarre apology post regarding Jonah Hill, maybe this won’t be the last we hear from the 45-year-old on the Gram these days.

Speaking of these days, Kanye’s been relatively low-key compared to the explosive statements of last year that rendered his public favor at an all-time low. Between paparazzi run-ins and outings with wife Bianca Censori, he seems less keen to make too much of a scene. While people still look for any glimpse to him possible, posts like these point to consistently inconsistent behavior. As such, only time will tell how his career continues and how relevant he’ll remain in the public eye. On that note, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Kanye West.
