Ice Spice Responds To Being Among The Most-Searched Artists Of The Year

by

Ice Spice has had a major year. The 23-year-old MC skyrocketed to the top of the charts with her high-profile collabs, becoming on of the most talked about celebrities of 2023. She’s even found herself in the running for multiple Grammy awards, which is quite the feat considering how new she is to the industry.

The Bronx native teamed up with Nicki Minaj, Taylor Swift, and more, with her tracks dominating social media. Despite this, Ice Spice has managed to stay humble, which is one of the things that fans love about her. With that being said, Google recently unveiled a list of their most-searched celebrities of the year. She ranks at No. 2, just behind Jason Aldean. Other artists to make the list included Sexyy Red, Peso Pluma, Kim Petras, Sam Smith, and more.

Ice Spice Blames “Nosey” Fans

She shared her cheeky response to the news on Twitter earlier this week. “Nosey much ?” she simply asked. It looks like the “Munch” performer plans to continue her streak of capturing internet users’ attention in the new year, too. Back in November, she took to Instagram to tease a new project she has on the way. “Y2K! ?/?/24,” she captioned the carousel. While she didn’t share many more details of what she has in store for fans, it’s safe to say that they can’t wait.

Ice Spice was obviously one of the internet’s biggest celebrity crushes this year, but that doesn’t mean she doesn’t have crushes of her own. During a recent conversation with Doja Cat, she revealed that the first celebrity she ever set her sights on was Usher. She finally got to see the R&B icon in person at the Met Gala this year, and was taken aback by how “gorgeous” he is. What do you think of Ice Spice’s reaction to learning she was among the most-searched celebrities of 2023? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Karlissa Saffold Reacts To Son Blueface “Rescuing” His Son From Chrisean Rock’s Friend

by

Drama surrounding Chrisean Rock and Blueface got off to a really wild and dangerous start this week. Moreover, apparently on Sunday night (December 3), he “rescued” their child Chrisean Jr. from his babysitter, Rock’s friend, at 4AM after he found out that she allegedly was out on the town with a man. Karlissa Saffold, the rapper’s mother, took to Instagram recently to react to this, but that’s not the whole story. At the time of writing this article, news broke about the Baddies Starr going on Instagram Live with Jaidyn Alexis, claiming that Blue actually beat her friend up. Not only that, but she claimed that he got into a car accident with their son, so this is all very nasty stuff.

“Y’all text my son and tell him that’s a set up,” Blueface’s mother expressed. “I seen my friend do before. Y’all just pray [prayer hands emoji]. You can’t kidnap your own baby in California. Stop telling me to go get her they baby. She said she don’t never want me with him. His daddy got him Just pray for the baby and the outcome [prayer hands emoji]. I’m here if and when they need me other than that call John. You do not need no birth certificate in California. He has that DNA paperwork she gave him.”

Blueface’s Mom Speaks On Him “Kidnapping” His Son

However, these aren’t the only players chiming in on this scandal that are directly related to this inner circle. For example, Chrisean Rock’s sister Tesehki blasted her friend Marsh, presumably for allowing this to happen while she took care of Junior. Still, without much other context, it’s a hard situation to call and one that will likely dominate all their social media pages in the near future. “Bring Marsh to me I see she aint learn her lesson the first time. Time to eat baby!!” Rock’s sister tweeted.

Meanwhile, this all comes amid a recently streamed fight between Blue and his boo and other baby mama, Jaidyn Alexis, plus rumors that the two broke up. With this in mind, this situation could cause even further conflict, spats, and chaos in everyone’s lives. Hopefully this all goes down while Junior is safe, sound, and as removed from these consequences as possible. On that note, stay posted on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Blueface and Chrisean Rock.

Blueface’s Adult Content Preferences Had Jaidyn Alexis Feeling A Type Of Way

by

Blueface and Jaidyn Alexis recently popped out as special guests on popular streamer N3on’s live session, and it was quite the bizarre crossover. At some point, the topic of adult films came up, and it seems like the media personality asked the California rapper about what he likes to watch. To that, he answered “ebony,” which had his girlfriend fire off a pretty indignant reaction, asking why he’s got to do all that. The “Bleed It” MC retorted with the claim that she likes similar content, and said that it’s “hard” for him to watch other races have intercourse. “I think you should shut the f**k up,” Alexis snapped back.

What’s funny is that this was a surprisingly common topic in recent headlines, so this is now Blueface’s narrative when it comes to media coverage. His mother Karlissa Saffold also spoke on his adult search leanings, which is even more uncomfortable to hear than it is to describe. “My son say he jack off to the people that look like his mama,” she said on IG Live this past weekend. “He say he like the ebony b***hes, I can’t make this s**t up. I don’t give a f**k how much wine she give me, I can’t make this up. I seen it girl. She got mad when he said he like ebony. B***h, your baby ebony.”

However, it’s possible that this will only further drive a rift in between the couple, who are apparently on a rocky path. Many social media users speculated that they broke up after Blueface deleted many pictures with her from his Instagram page. With this recent stream in mind, maybe this is just part of their media plan to keep clicks rolling in and stir up the pot. After all, their antics are part of why they’re so famous, and folks can’t get enough of the drama.

Meanwhile, we’re sure that the 26-year-old can find new ways to go viral. For example, he recently made his private jet stop flight just so he could get some McDonald’s… and it cost him $10,000. Nothing like a good burger, we guess. For more news and the latest updates on Blueface and Jaidyn Alexis, come back to HNHH.

Joe Budden On Sexyy Red’s New Song “Free My N***a”: “I’m Off The Boat”

by

Even though Sexyy Red conquered 2023 with her hits, it seems like her latest one, “Free My N***a,” is even getting some fans off her side. Moreover, The Joe Budden Podcast recently discussed the release, and its titular host in particular was not a fan at all. Sure, it’s not like this crew absolutely loved her music before, but they liked it and had love for what she’s doing. However, we have to distinguish this disappointed reaction from the blind hatred that the St. Louis MC gets online no matter what she puts out there. Still, criticism is criticism, and the hosts debated on the longevity of her career and what her art centers around.

Furthermore, Joe Budden and his companions posited that it feels like someone forced Sexyy Red to make this record. To paraphrase them, say what you will about Hood Hottest Princess, but at least those songs on that album felt like they were hers. In comparison, they believe that the 25-year-old forced “Free My N***a,” and it didn’t come off as genuine or skilled as a result. Of course, this is just speculation at the end of the day, but it was a much more nuanced discussion than what sadly and typically plagues her Twitter mentions.

The Joe Budden Podcast Tears Into Sexyy Red’s “Free My N***a”: Watch

Elsewhere during their episode, The Joe Budden Podcast also discussed CyHi The Prynce’s new music video for “Mr. Put That S**t On.” In it, the rapper jokingly depicts this podcast, specifically and seemingly taking aim at Budden for their years-long beef. Before you get too quick to assume, there’s an explanation for this that CyHi offered. According to him, this was meant to show how media discussion and criticism impacts the creative process both ways, and wasn’t necessarily a dig at the Slaughterhouse affiliate.

Meanwhile, we know just how harsh Joe Budden can be when it comes to his critique of music. In fact, it was a surprise when this year’s biggest rival for the podcaster, Drake, dropped a new EP and he chose to not comment on it at all. Despite receiving disses on those tracks, it’s clear that– for the most part– the 43-year-old only speaks on things when he’s passionate about their importance. For more news on him and the latest updates on Sexyy Red, log back into HNHH.

D.L. Hughley Says King Harris’ Outburst Was “Insulting”

by

This past holiday weekend was maybe a bit up and down for T.I. and his family. He brought his loved ones out to the New Orleans Saints and Atlanta Falcons game. It turned out to be a good one, with both vying for possession of first place in the NFC South. The Falcons would emerge victorious, certainly making T.I. a happy camper. However, a family feud went down during the game and it has gone quite viral since it happened on Sunday, November 26. It was recorded on Instagram Live so a ton of eyeballs saw it, including comedian D.L. Hughley.

Another celebrity who caught wind of it was Charleston White. He shared his thoughts on it like he always does with everything that is trending. “God damn it, I told T.I. he should kicked that boy’s a** last year. If T.I. woulda kicked that boy’s a** last year, that boy wouldn’t have had to jack him up today. You had that boy showing out at the Falcon game and embarrassing the family.”

D.L. Hughley Reacts

Now, D.L. Hughley has some words about it. He caught up with TMZ Hip Hop at the LAX airport as he called King Harris’ actions “insulting.” He also addressed what T.I.’s son said about growing up in the trap and having roaches crawl over him. In a quite hilarious statement, Hughley says that the only roaches around him were paid actors as he was living a much easier life than he made it seem to be. Seeing as how Hughley has children, he knows that his own would not act like that.

What are your initial thoughts on D.L. Hughley’s comments about King Harris’ freak out at the Atlanta Falcons game this past weekend? Do you think that T.I. and Tiny deserve more blame than King? What can Harris do to correct his own behavior? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this.

King Von’s Sister Shuts Down DJ Playing NBA YoungBoy At Her Party: Watch

by

Many speculate that King Von was wrapped up in a contentious feud with NBA YoungBoy ahead of his 2020 passing. It’s even rumored that it prompted the Atlanta shooting that cost the Chicago rapper his life. While this remains alleged, as none of it is confirmed, tensions remain between YB and the late performer’s loved ones. King Von’s sister Kayla B, for example, continues to make it clear where her loyalty lies.

Recently, she even shut down a DJ at her own birthday party, who appeared to have a questionable read on the room. In a new clip, the DJ is heard starting to play one of NBA YoungBoy’s songs, when she stops him in his tracks. “No YoungBoy, no YoungBoy,” she tells him. “Cut it out!”

Kayla B Tells DJ “No YoungBoy”

While some social media users think she overreacted, others argue that she deserves not to be reminded of her brother’s tragic death at what’s supposed to be a celebration of her own life. She also allegedly just had a run-in with YB’s ex-girlfriend Arabian, which could have added to the bad taste in her mouth. The rumored altercation took place earlier this month, according to reports, and Kayla took to Instagram Live to vent about it shortly after.

“I walked past [the line to the club]. This f*cking b*tch punched me in my motherf*cking mouth. Never in a million years I ever thought a b*tch would ever just run up on me and punch me in the back of the head. Like after she punched me I tried to swing back like this…the security guards was holding her back. And then that’s when she was doing all that. Y’all tried to jump to me,” she alleged. What do you think of King Von’s sister’s reaction to the DJ playing NBA YoungBoy at her birthday party? Do you think she overreacted, or should he have known better?

Tyrese’s Ex-Wife Samantha Lee Reacts To Explosive Joe Budden Interview

by

Earlier this week, Tyrese sat down with Joe Budden on his podcast. The performer opened up about everything from his career to his family, and of course, his messy divorce. Tyrese hasn’t shied away from airing his complaints about his ex-wife, Samantha Lee, amid the entire process. He’s previously accused her of only ever being with him for money, called her a liar, and even compared her to former president Donald Trump.

Regardless, he had plenty more to say about the downfall of their marriage during the interview, as well as the issues they’ve had since. At one point in the interview, he shared his thoughts on the child support his ex asked of him, claiming that it was entirely too much. “We never spent $20K a month on my daughter when we were together,” he said. “Who spends that kind of money on a kid? […] What the f*ck do you suddenly need that kind of money for?“

Samantha Lee Says She Now Knows How To “Handle” Tyrese

After the interview dropped, Samantha Lee shared her thoughts online, claiming that it convinced her to change her approach to dealing with Tyrese. “I can forgive you for what you have done, and I thank you for showing me what you’re capable of,” she said. “Now I know how to handle you.”

It appears as though she isn’t the only one moving a bit differently these days, however. During a recent livestream, Tyrese explained that since the interview, he’s been getting messages claiming that Budden and his crew are speaking poorly about him behind his back. He says that the things he’s going through are serious, appearing fed up with being treated like a joke.

Tyrese Upset By The Joe Budden Podcast Crew’s Comments

“Joe has been going at me cr*zy, and everybody has been making me the butt of the joke,” he said. Apparently, he even reached out to Queenz Flip to try and work things out, but it’s unclear whether or not he’s heard back. Tyrese has continued to promote the interview on social media despite this, noting how it’s sure to ruffle some feathers.

Megan Thee Stallion Plays A Scrapped Song For Fans, With Mixed Reactions

by

In recent years, fans have become much more used to hearing material from artists that they previously wouldn’t have. Sometimes that comes through leaks with artists like Playboi Carti and Kanye West having extensive leak catalogs. Other times it comes from tracks played live that later get reworked into studio cuts. Or sometimes the artist themselves just has some scrapped or currently unfinished material that they want to share, which was true of Megan Thee Stallion on a recent Instagram live.

Overnight, she played a banger for fans during a livestream that she says has been scrapped. The decision to leave the song on the cutting room floor may have proved wise as reactions from fans were largely mixed. “Bro Nicki got big ass influence over the women rap game . They hate on her , then copy what big queens be doing . Smh,” one of the top comments reads accusing her of copying Nicki Minaj. “Sorry but all her music sound the same… same flow, same rap etccc,” another comment reads. Check out the snippet she shared and the various fan reactions to it below.

Megan Thee Stallion’s Scrapped Song

After a very quiet first half of 2023, Megan Thee Stallion revved up her release in recent months. First came her highly anticipated second collaboration with Cardi B. Following their 202 smash hit “WAP” the pair teamed up for a second time on the track “Bongos.” The song is still in the Hot 100 more than two months after its release sitting at #72 this week after peaking inside the top 15.

Earlier this month she shared her brand new single “Cobra.” The track saw her getting personal and vulnerable in a way she hasn’t often before on record and garnered acclaim from fans and critics as a result. It’s also still on the Hot 100 sitting at #63 this week. What do you think of Megan Thee Stallion playing a scrapped song for fans and getting an underwhelming response?

50 Cent Suggests “Surviving Diddy” As His Next Executive-Produced Show Or Film

by

The recent allegations against Diddy caused a firestorm in pop culture, which some seem eager to explore… or exploit. Moreover, his rival 50 Cent commented a lot on these developments, suggesting that this would be the first part in a long series of reckonings. In fact, it seems like he might’ve been right, as the Bad Boy mogul now faces a lot of consequences for these claims. Furthermore, these range from other label executives facing accusations, brands distancing themselves from him, and a whole lot more. All in all, the G-Unit boss looked at all this and thought, “Wow, this could make for a great addition to my cinematic universe.”

“I Told you they was coming, in 5,4,3,2,1 SMH,” 50 Cent wrote on Instagram on Wednesday (November 22), sharing various headlines of the fallout of Cassie’s now-settled lawsuit against Diddy. “This is a movie (SURVIVING P DIDDY) OR (DIDDY, DO IT OR NOT) executive produced by Curtis 50 Cent Jackson coming soon!” Of course, given his experience with producing hit shows and other entertainment, we can’t really tell whether he’s joking or not. Still, knowing the Queens icon, there’s probably a very real chance that he’ll at least attempt to get it green-lit.

50 Cent Hints At Executive Producing Something About The Diddy Situation

One of the things that 50 Cent alluded to was the sexual assault lawsuit that former Bad Boy president Harve Pierre was hit with on Wednesday from a Jane Doe. In it, she claims that Pierre groomed and sexually assaulted her. While Diddy escaped mention in the suit, it does name Combs Enterprises, Bad Boy Entertainment, and Bad Boy Records as codefendants. “We have recently become aware of a lawsuit filed in New York by a former employee,” a Bad Boy company representative stated. “The allegations are from many years ago that were never brought to the attention of the company. Neither the plaintiff nor the executive are current employees of the company. We are now investigating the allegations, and our top priority is the safety and well-being of our employees.”

Meanwhile, the Get Rich Or Die Tryin‘ MC’s post also named Macy’s as one of the brands phasing out their Diddy partnership. Overall, no matter how you slice it, this is a very ugly situation. We’ll see if some form of media comes out analyzing it… and whether it’s respectful, good, or beneficial to begin with. Still, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on 50 Cent and Diddy.

Young Fan Blown Away By Meeting ASAP Rocky & Rihanna

The moment was certainly one for the books, and the boy is sure to cherish it for quite some time. Social media users can’t blame him for being swept away by the experience, and are celebrating the pair’s heartfelt gesture. They have their own little ones at home, so ASAP Rocky and Rihanna likely knew how special the mini meet and greet would be to the boy. There were even some rumors circulating recently that the duo was expecting their third child soon, however, those were purely based on false claims made by a random user on Twitter.

The rapper did make it clear during a recent interview that he holds his children close, revealing that he feels Riot and RZA were his and Rihanna’s best work yet. “I think we do a real great job at collaborating and making children. I think that’s our best creation so far. Nothing’s better than that, I don’t think,” he told Complex earlier this month.
