NBA YoungBoy Holds Hands With Male Fan, Viral Photo Reactions Pour In

by

NBA YoungBoy is known for being a boundary-pushing artist. As his legal team continues to fight for his freedom, the Louisana native is spending more time with his fans. Recently, one lucky listener crossed paths with both the controversial artist and Chrisean Rock’s ex, Lil Mabu, in the same Target store. After sharing a photo of their meet-up online, YB’s fan has been under fire for “holding hands” with the 24-year-old as they posed together.

As HipHopDX reports, the image surfaced online this past weekend (February 10,) at which time the OP wrote “Why I just ran into NBA YB and Mabu at Target?” he asked. Seeing as photos with the lyricists were captured separately, it’s unclear if the “MR. TAKE YA B*TCH” artist and shopping together, or just happened to coincidentally be in the same store.

As hate comments began pouring in, YB’s fan edited the caption on his post to read, “Crying on the net ’bout a pic, twisting the narrative sounds like a bunch of insecure bums who [get] no money” earlier this week. “Bruh, no one crying,” one user responded to @wltr.aa. “That s**t mad sus, wtf y’all doing holding hands? Also, your page [don’t] show you getting no money either, so who [are you] to talk? Pic is weird as s**t, how ’bout you explain why y’all holding each other’s fingers [while] crossing arms?”

Others had plenty to say in the comments as well. “Ni**as came to [your] page to hate ‘cuz they ain’t get a pic with YB,” one user speculated. “Y’all sorry [as f**k] 😂😂.” Another chimed in with, “You is not slick. I was at the same Target [and] you was being hella friendly to him 😂.” In response to this, the OP clapped back, “Lol, I just [asked] for a pic and went [back] to shopping weirdo.” Keep scrolling to read more reactions, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Beyonce Wax Figure Looks More Like Other Celebs, Social Media Says

by

Many have tried to imitate Beyonce over the years, but none have succeeded as flawlessly as they’d hoped – including Madame Tussauds. The world-famous wax museum has made numerous statues of the “Halo” hitmaker for their locations all across the globe, some more flattering than others. Their latest take on Queen B debuted today (February 8) in Blackpool. Now that photos of the creation are making rounds online, debate is ensuing about which other celebrities the waxwork looks more like.

On one hand, some think that this might be the closest Tussauds has come to bringing Beyonce to life. Others, however, think the brand has work to do in terms of the mother of three’s face card. Thankfully, her RENAISSANCE Era outfit was perfectly on point, and her hair looked as fabulous as ever. As you might’ve heard, Bey announced just a few days ago that her Cecred line is coming soon to help keep all of her fans’ manes looking full, fresh, and healthy.

At the same time that Bey arrived at the Blackpool museum, they also welcomed a new figure of pop sensation Lady Gaga. She and the Houston native previously worked together on “Telephone,” and now they’re sharing space again on the floor of the UK venue. It seems that little has been said about the House of Gucci actresses’ waxwork online, as it’s relatively close to her actual appearance.

Social Media Reacts

“They can never get her face right,” one Twitter/X user wrote after seeing Madame Tussaud’s latest attempt at recreating Beyonce’s beauty. Elsewhere, others pointed out that the statue seems to more closely resemble R&B songstress Tinashe, or King of Queens starlet Leah Remini. The hair and body are pretty close to Beyonce’s, but there’s obviously still work to be done in other areas. Keep scrolling to read more reactions, and let us know if you think the wax figure resembles Queen B or not in the comments.

Deion Sanders Inspires Yung Miami’s Latest Yams Era Look

by

As an Aquarius, Yung Miami is a professional at doing things in her own way. Other femcees who fall under this sign include Megan Thee Stallion and Justina Valentine, both of whom also take a distinct approach to how they move in the spotlight. For the latest chapter of her career, Miami is all about the Yams, which she’s been discussing frequently on social media, though not everyone is clear on exactly what to expect from the rapper-turned-podcaster in this era.

“The Yams Era is my Primetime,” the mother of two wrote on Instagram earlier this week in the caption of a promotional video. “In the Yams we do ginger hair… Focus on ourselves… And get money! Yams is the new lingo… To my fans, the YAMS… This is the new us,” Miami further declared of her rebrand. Since then, her socials have filled with more content promoting her work, including a reference to NFL icon Deion Sanders with her sporty outfit. “We ain’t got tomorrow. We ain’t got now. We ain’t got next,” she wrote beneath Tuesday’s (February 6) upload. “We got now. We ain’t coming no more. We’re here. #Yams 🍠🍠🍠.”

In the comments, a few helpful fans helped to explain Miami’s concept to anyone feeling lost. “From a marketing perspective: Yams – term coined for Miami back in the day,” one of them began. “Deion ‘Prime Time’ Sanders in his prime, Coach Prime is also from Ft. Myers, FL. Yams Era = Caresha in her ‘prime,’ she’s portraying paying homage to her roots, being in her prime, with a nostalgic feel. MY TAKE IMO 🔥🔥🔥 🍠.”

Nicki Minaj & Ice Spice’s “Barbie World” Mistakenly Announced As Grammys Best Rap Song, The Barbz Go Wild

by

It goes without saying that Nicki Minaj’s Barbz are a force to be reckoned with. This has been demonstrated time and time again, most recently with their explosive reactions to Megan Thee Stallion dissing Nicki on “Hiss.” Nicki was nominated for two Grammy awards this year, including Best Song Written for Visual Media and Best Rap Song for her Barbie collab with Ice Spice, “Barbie World.” Unfortunately, she didn’t secure either of them, leaving her Grammy-less.

Billie Eilish took home Best Song Written for Visual Media with her Barbie soundtrack contribution “What Was I Made For?” while Best Rap Song went to Killer Mike. His track with Andre 3000, “Scientists & Engineers,” featuring Eryn Allen Kane and Future came out on top, also earning him an award for Best Rap Performance. His sixth studio album, Michael, additionally scored Best Rap Album.

Recording Academy Wrongly Declares “Barbie World” As Winner

Needless to say, the Barbz are feral. To make matters worse, the Grammys’ official Twitter/X account mistakenly announced “Barbie World” as the winner of Best Rap Song. Some Tweets also suggest that the official Grammys website had it listed as the winner, leaving social media users to speculate. Some suspect that “Barbie World” was supposed to win, but someone on the inside stole the win away from Nicki.

This is obviously unconfirmed, but either way, they’re convinced. Some of Nicki’s peers have even hit social media since the announcement, suggesting that they have their suspicions too. Nicki herself has yet to weigh in, but surely it’ll be explosive when she does.

NBA YoungBoy’s Instagram Lights Up With Potential Album Announcement & Concerning Photo

by

NBA YoungBoy is isolated from the world on house arrest and has been for years now. Still, his influence in hip-hop and beyond remains undeniable. He continues to put out new music at a rate that few others can keep up with. Before January came to a close he responded to Charlamagne Tha God dissing him on The Breakfast Club that same month with a song called “Act A Donkey,” and all through 2023 the Louisiana native kept his listeners entertained with albums like I Rest My Case, Don’t Try This At Home, Richest Opp, and Decided 2.

Despite his numeric success, it’s obvious that YB’s mental health has been suffering lately. The controversial rapper’s attorneys have been fighting to grant him more leniency while he’s stuck at home in Utah, though his freedom is still a far cry from what the average entertainment industry icon has in their life. On Thursday (February 1), the father of 11 sparked concern with a new social media post showing him lying on the floor with a plethora of drugs around him. A white styrofoam cup of Lean sits by his head, and a bottle of open pills is spilled beside him. “And that’s why I don’t pick up my phone when it ring,” the multi-talent wrote in his caption.

Latto & Jennifer Lopez Collab Doesn’t Fly With All Listeners, Rap Diva Responds

by

Self-proclaimed “girls girl” Latto continues to expand her impressive resume of musical collaborators. For her latest release, the Atlanta-based artist jumped on the remix of Jennifer Lopez’s “Can’t Get Enough,” dropping off a red-hot visual to accompany the sensual song. “Call the doctor, I don’t see nobody but you / Do I still love you? Baby, is the sky blue? / Spoil a b**ch down and he faithful to me too,” Latto raps on her verse, making it clear that she accepts nothing short of the best in love and beyond.

As People reports, the “Put It On Da Floor” hitmaker was clearly excited to work with someone as legendary as Lopez. Between her discography, film credits, and endeavours in the fashion/beauty world, there’s little that the blonde beauty hasn’t done. While Latto is happy to now have joint songs with J. Lo, Cardi B, and Mariah Carey already under her belt, social media users are expressing discontent with the newly released remix.

Latto Gives Haters a Piece of Her Mind

“Love Latto to death, but who is making these decisions? 🫤,” a listener not feeling the “Can’t Get Enough (Remix)” asked on Twitter/X. When she saw the post, the 25-year-old didn’t take long to clap back. “Girl, I [got a] call that THEE Jennifer Lopez wanted to do a song [with] me? I made the decision, just like [you] would too. [The f**k] is [you] talm ’bout?” Latto wrote without missing a beat.

Latto’s internet critics aren’t the only ones she’s squaring up against this winter. According to a celebrity makeup artist, she and fellow femcee Coi Leray came to blows not long ago, with the 777 hitmaker coming out on top. The rumours have yet to be confirmed by either party, but you can still catch up on the gossip at the link below. For more music/pop culture news, tap back in with HNHH later.

Kevin Gates’ Capris Keep The Internet Laughing: Watch

by

Kevin Gates is kicking off 2024 with all eyes on him. The controversial lyricist has been busy preparing for his upcoming album, The Ceremony to drop later this month. As with most artists, he’s been doing his due diligence in speaking with the press, even dropping by The Breakfast Club to update fans. At that time, the “2 Phones” hitmaker spoke candidly about his role in the lives of others as a healer. Though Charlamagne Tha God expressed his doubts about Gates’ ability to impact everyone he crosses paths with, his guest made it clear that he knows his energy isn’t for everyone.

What the multi-talent never fails to do, whether you’re a fan of his music or not, is keep us laughing. On TBC he did this by revealing the “d**k restriction” he’s put women on in the past for reverting to their toxic ways. Now, however, it’s Gates’ fashion choices that have some social media users cracking up. After he stepped out in an all-black ensemble consisting of capris, a tucked-in shirt, and layered socks, it’s obvious Kevin was feeling himself. Still, not everyone agreed with his creative decisions, and many weren’t afraid to tell him so.

Method Man & LL Cool J Spark Debate Among Thirsty Fans

by

No shortage of pressure comes with being a celebrity. From wanting to nail every performance in their respective crafts to being constantly scrutinized for their weight and physical appearance, being in the public eye certainly isn’t easy. Method Man and LL Cool J know this all too well, seeing as they’ve been American hip-hop heartthrobs for decades now. The peak of their careers took place before social media was at the forefront of our lives, but even now, Twitter/X users are sparking debates about which of the two entertainers is more appealing.

To be fair, both the Wu-Tang Clan alum and the “Mama Said Knock You Out” artist have a lot going for them. The former’s been married to Tamika Smith, who he shares three kids with, since 2001. Meanwhile, Cool tied the knot with Simone Smith in 1995, leading to the birth of four beautiful children. Regardless of their marital status, thirsty fans can’t help but lust after Method Man’s gym videos, or drool over LL’s muscular build.

As HipHopDX notes, many are divided between the rap pioneers. “Method Man is aging so much better but LL can still get. In conclusion: Both,” one person shared their opinion under @laugh_track_nat’s tweet. “I read an article where LL Cool J house was getting robbed and he squared up with the thief and beat his ass. So I’m going with him,” another submitted their vote in favour of the 56-year-old. “Hmmmmm. Can I go back and forth 😏?” someone else flirtatiously inquired, not wanting to give up either hunk.

Halle Bailey & DDG Bake Cookies, Her Behaviour Furthers Newborn Theories: Video

by

Whether Halle Bailey and DDG have a newborn to care for or not, they’re certainly feeling the festive spirit this Christmas. Ahead of the annual holiday, the YouTuber was talking about how “amazing” life is on his Twitter, meanwhile, his girlfriend has been notably shielding her stomach from public view, but still stepping out and enjoying life. At this point, Bailey is well aware of the rumours surrounding her and her uterus since the summer, though she continues to avoid addressing them. Instead, The Little Mermaid actress is letting her body do the talking as she bakes holiday cookies with her man.

In the video below, Bailey struggles to get up from the table where she and DDG are cutting gingerbread into shapes. Her slow movements, grunt, and grip on the black surface are just a few clues social media sleuths are using to back up their theory she just game birth. Others include the size of the Atlanta native’s chest, and her hands, according to eagle-eyed viewers.

“Beyonce taught her well, I f**k with it,” one person wrote in @theshaderoom’s comments. The mother of three somehow manages to be everywhere and nowhere all at once, especially keeping her family life as far away from the spotlight as possible. Seeing as the “Halo” hitmaker has long been a mentor to Halle and her sister, it wouldn’t be surprising for her to follow in Bey’s footsteps by setting boundaries with fans.

Offset Dermal Piercing Has Haters Branding Him A “Sassy Man”

by

While Cardi B has been hooting and hollering about her feelings on social media amid her reported split from Offset, the Georgia-born artist is keeping his mind occupied in other ways. Celebrating his birthday surrounded by beautiful women is one of them, though he’s vehemently denying any involvement with 6ix9ine’s ex, Jade, while turning up. A few months ago, Set’s wife, was feeling particularly brave and got two new piercings – her tongue and Monroe. Not everyone is a fan of the latter, but nevertheless, it seems to make Bardi feel more confident. Now, it looks like the father of five is taking notes from his ex, as he got a flashy new piece of facial jewelry as well.

Ahead of the holidays, Set’s IG story lit up with a new video showing off his fresh dermal piercing. While zooming in to show off the diamond sitting beneath his big, brown eye, “DON’T YOU LIE” from his recent SET IT OFF album was blasting. Apart from his cheek gem, the “Bad and Boujee” artist also gave us a look at the marijuana leaf-shaped piece he keeps in his inner ear, above other carats.
