Ice Spice Gets Her Chain Snatched, Says Man Taunting Her In A Video

by

She’s a relatively unproblematic newcomer, but a man claims he’s snatched Ice Spice’s chain. Ice stormed the Rap game with her “Munch” hit, putting her on the map as a formidable contender. She’s the latest artist to receive the meteoric rise treatment, increasing visibility with every release. Her first year in the mainstream found Spice posing for Beyoncé’s Ivy Park campaign, and she’s hit festival stages across the globe. However, with newfound fame also comes haters, and a group of men claimed they robbed the Like…? star.

A video of a group dangling a “Queen” chain in the camera lens surfaced online. “We got Ice Spice chain,” one of the men said. “Stop playin’ with me. Pull up. Y’all know where we at.” He then mocked the way Ice Spice raps, echoing his previous remark about her going to him to get her jewelry back. The clip ended with laughter but didn’t explain where this alleged robbery occurred.

Ice Spice Fans Jump In

Reactions quickly poured in, and unsurprisingly, the group was called out. People were confused—and disgusted—by the men bragging about snatching a chain from a woman. The public was also divided about the validity of the encounter. Some ran with it as truth, while others believed the alleged thieves were clout-chasing. Even if it was just jokes, the men now find themselves on the wrong side of Ice Spice fans.

Further, it was noted that Ice Spice has a signature chain, and the one in the video certainly wasn’t it. Spice’s necklace is a blinged-out, exaggerated version of her face, and after copping the piece, she wears it just about anywhere she goes. Her fans couldn’t accept that the “Queen” necklace belonged to the rapper and advised people not to believe everything they see on the internet. Since going viral, there hasn’t been a response from Ice Spice or her alleged assailants. We can only imagine it may be a rough day for them because all clout isn’t good clout. Whatever the truth, fans hope Ice Spice is doing okay. Check out the video above.

Jake Paul Trainer BJ Flores Shot During Robbery

by

Jake Paul has had a large team around him ever since breaking into the fight game. One of the people that has stood by him during this time is his trainer, BJ Flores. Overall, Flores has done a great job with Jake. Although Paul lost his last fight, there is no doubt that Flores has been able to turn Jake into a bonafide fighter. It isn’t easy getting a former YouTube star prepared for the ring, however, he has managed to do it, which is definitely worthy of some praise.

Unfortunately, Flores went through a very scary experience while out in Medellin, Colombia recently. Essentially, Flores was in the passenger seat of a car when he was simply stopped at a light. Subsequently, two armed men with motorcycles approached the car and pointed a gun at him. These men were trying to get his watch and his wallet, although they were unsuccessful. However, Flores was shot in the thigh. This forced him to rush to the hospital.

BJ Flores Speaks Out

“They shot me one time in the leg and I defended myself the best way I could,” Flores explained. Consequently, Flores will now have to get surgery on his leg. As you can see in the video above, courtesy of TMZ, Flores has a bullet lodged in his thigh. This is incredibly scary, however, it seems like he is going to be okay. “Thank you for the well wishes,” Flores said on Instagram. “I will learn from this….. Be safe out there please. Life is precious. I love you all.” At this time, Jake Paul has not given any commentary on what took place.

Traveling to South America can be quite dangerous. Colombia is known for these kinds of occurrences, and it is always important for people to stay safe while traveling. Central and South America have actually received numerous “do not travel” advisories as of late. This is due to growing tensions between the cartel and local governments. Be sure to keep it locked to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the sports world.

XXXTENTACION’s Accused Killers Took Photos With Cash Robbed From Late Rapper: Report

by

As we wait for more updates regarding Young Thug’s YSL RICO trial, another celebrity case has taken over the spotlight. Nearly five years after the tragic death of XXXTENTACION, the rapper’s murder suspects ate facing their day in court. Thus far, the details the jury has heard – including a video of the gruesome moment he was shot – are harrowing. At this time, more information only continues to come.

In this handout provided by the Miami Dade County Corrections, Rapper XXXTentacion, also known as Jahseh Dwayne Onfroy poses for his mugshot after being charged with seven new felonies stemming from a 2016 domestic violence case on December 15, 2017 in Miami, Florida. The new charges are for witness tampering and harassment. (Photo by Miami Dade County Corrections via Getty Images)

In a 2018 report, TMZ revealed that three of the four suspects knew each other beforehand. They also weren’t shy about flexing their money on social media. Weeks before X’s death, Dedrick Williams posted a video that sees him, Robert Allen, and Trayvon Newsome sifting through bills. Interestingly, Michael Boatwright wasn’t a part of these posts. However, he seemingly took a moment to pose with the money taken from the 20-year-old during the South Florida robbery.

Law&Crime Executive Producer Cathy Russon has been tweeting from the courtroom in the midst of this week’s trial. On Thursday (February 9), she had several updates to provide. Among them was Newsome yelling at Allen (who’s now acting as the state’s witness) while walking to the holding area. “There he is working with the police!” the former exclaimed. “You’re working with the white man now!”

Elsewhere in her coverage, the Twitter reporter revealed the aforementioned image of Boatright allegedly posing with money that was taken from XXXTENTACION just hours before. “Defendant turned state’s witness testifies this is X’s cash and photo taken after the homicide,” she explained in the caption. Another photo in the same thread sees Newsome smiling big while holding a stack of $100 bills in his hand.

“Pictures taken a couple days after #XXXTentacion murder. Shows defendant #MichaelBoatwright and #RobertAllen flashing a lot of cash,” Russon points out in another post. She also notes that the latter seen in the final photo has testified that the money belonged to the “Jocelyn Flores” artist. At the end of the thread, the journalist shares a picture of the gun Williams had on him during the assassination. This was also confirmed as per Allen.

Earlier this week, jurors also heard the Broward County native’s uncle recount the day of his death. As you may recall, X had his family member in the vehicle with him at the time of the tragic incident. Surprisingly, he even managed to make it out of his nephew’s luxury vehicle alive. Read everything Leonard Kerr had to say on the stand here, and check back later for more hip-hop news updates. RIP.
