Playboi Carti Tries To Explain Himself In Wild Body Cam Footage Of Traffic Stop

by

Playboi Carti is as mysterious as ever these days, which means that seeing him in mundane situations we can relate to is all the more bizarre. Moreover, new footage recently emerged of a 2022 traffic stop in which a police officer pulled him and Ken Carson over for going 84MPH in a 35 zone. In the clip below, Iggy Azalea’s ex explained that they were “trying to get straight back home” with a female in the backseat who spoke unintelligibly. Then, he stepped out of the vehicle to continue the processing, and eventually got back to his vehicle. All in all, not the worst celebrity pull-over we’ve seen.

Elsewhere, though, Playboi Carti is catching flack instead of engagement due to his high placement in Complex‘s best Atlanta rappers list (at number 12). “I can’t get jiggy with that,” B. Dot expressed on Way Up With Angela Yee. “Playboi Carti couldn’t rap a GIF. Have you ever heard Playboi Carti’s music? He raps in like Batman sound effects. He sucks. Absolutely, he’s terrible. Am I alone in here? Okay. Nah, he’s terrible.”

Playboi Carti’s 2022 Traffic Stop

But B. Dot isn’t the only rap-adjacent commentator with some critical smoke for Playboi Carti, although this next example is much more personal. You may recall that Adin Ross invited him for a livestream which transpired for all of a couple of minutes before the rapper dipped, allegedly finessing him out of millions of dollars. In fact, “King Vamp” even seemed to reference this on a recently leaked song, as he seemed to include a call between him and Ross on the intro. We doubt that this particular version of the song will ever come out, but a bag is a bag, so who knows what happens?

But beyond all this criticism and speeding incidents, Playboi Carti fans remain very excited for what he’s got for fans. In fact, this might relate not just to his long-awaited album, but to some other collaborative and performance updates. The “FE!N” duo teased a “OOCACTUS” concert, and Carti and Travis Scott electrified die-hards with this hint. For the sake of preserving surprises, we wouldn’t put any money on this actually going down, but fans can dream…

Young Thug Dares Police Officer To Race Him In New Body Cam Footage: Watch

by

While Young Thug is in the middle of his RICO trial with the rest of YSL, we recently got footage of a much less serious legal hiccup. Moreover, body cam footage from 2021 surfaced online of a police officer pulling him over for speeding in his home city of Atlanta. During their interactions, Thugger pleads with the cop to not give him a ticket because he just got his license back and can’t deal with another speed bump. In fact, he even challenges the officer to a foot race, but he stands his ground and explains to him why this is important. Overall, it’s an incredibly regular conversation to have, and it’s nice to see that this wasn’t confrontational, presumptuous, or aggressive in any manner.

Furthermore, rappers in Young Thug’s position -– or frankly, Black U.S. citizens on a daily basis -– are far too often the subject of discrimination and undue persecution in the nation’s many facets of the legal and criminal system. Of course, the law is the law and accountability must stand, but it’s not hard to see when folks take it too far. One example of this is how the Atlanta trap pioneer is held to a double standard when it comes to his “gang ties” that are part of the image behind his music. Snoop Dogg can hit the Super Bowl halftime show stage while wearing Crip paisley; why is Thug villainized for what so many others do?

Regardless, the last update that we got concerning his innocence or guilt in the YSL RICO case was a recorded 911 call. The most recent hearing in Young Thug’s trial played this audio, in which the caller claims that he is the shooter in an incident. It’s unclear how much prosecutors or the defense will pursue this specific case or if it will simply be general reference for the larger proceeding. Either way, there are a lot of conflicting narratives at play.

Meanwhile, the “Metro Spider” MC continues to drop new music, such as his Strick and James Blake collab “KISSES MAKE SURE.” Even though it’s no replacement for his freedom, at least listeners can support him and put even a little money in his circle’s pockets while he can’t benefit from streams and engagement himself. We’ll see what the next few months hold in these regards. On that note, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Young Thug and the YSL RICO trial.

Playboi Carti’s Arrest Gets Reactions From Benji Blue Bills & Bear1Boss

by

Footage recently surfaced online of Playboi Carti’s arrest for speeding in 2022, and fans and fellow rappers alike had no shortage of reactions. Of course, since this was old footage, many took it much more lightly than if it had popped up around the traffic stop’s date. Still, many folks decided to clown his situation or speak negatively on it, including one Benji Blue Bills during a recent Instagram Live session. Specifically, he decided to take aim at the Opium boss’ attempts to get out of the arrest, and blasted this as bizarre movement from him. They have some issues to work out among themselves, so this is probably just an extension of that tension.

“These n***as trying to suck d**k in the police car,” Benji Blue Bills expressed with a laugh, who recently “reacted” to Playboi Carti’s diss against him. “Aye, man, these n***as trying to suck d**k not to go to jail. ‘Officer, is there anything I can do to not go to jail? Anything? You sure there ain’t nothing?’ Face a**. Them n***as say, ‘Jail? Jail?!’ Come on, bruh. Ain’t no gangster moving like that, man. These n***as be fool, man. ‘Officer, is there anything I can do to not go to jail?’ Man, you was speeding, you wasn’t even doing s**t. You was speeding!”

Elswhere, rapper Bear1Boss recently revealed, as the new footage showed, that he actually met Playboi Carti at the same jail he was getting booked at. Furthermore, you can see his excited reaction in the clip below while the Atlanta rage pioneer stands silently and stoically. “I was locked up with Carti he said Dnt tell nobody wtf did that do for me [crying-laughing emoji],” the KEY! collaborator tweeted once this body-cam footage sprouted up online. It must be quite the bizarre experience to meet one of your favorite rappers in the slammer.

Meanwhile, this might go under many fans’ radar given all the hype around the “King Vamp” MC’s next album. That will take precedent over a lot of this drama, especially since it resurfaced from over a year ago. We’ll see if more details emerge about this, but we’re much more interested in release updates from him. On that note, come back to HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Playboi Carti.

Playboi Carti Arrested For Speeding In 2022 In Newly Leaked Footage: Watch

by

While Playboi Carti doesn’t have anywhere near the level of legal troubles as some rappers out there, he’s still had his issues. One of which was a 2022 arrest after being pulled over for speeding. But he wasn’t just driving a few over the speed limit. According to the officer who pulled him over he was going 133mph down a stretch of road with a 55mph speed limit. The extremely fast speed probably has something to do with why the incident resulted in his arrest.

Now nearly two years later, body cam video of the incident has surfaced online. In the video, Carti attempts to justify his driving but the officer who pulled him over isn’t having it. Surprisingly, fans in the comments seem to understand just how dangerous Carti’s behavior was. “Lmao can’t even be mad at the cop n*gga was gunning it,” one of the top comments on the post reads. Others came through with jokes about the whole situation. “Should’ve used the baby voice he would’ve walked,” one fan jokes in reference to Carti’s notorious high-pitched rapping. Check out the full video and variety of fan reactions below.

Recently, Playboi Carti has been dropping a string of new songs on YouTube that has fans hyped for a potential new era. One of those elements is supposed to be a tour but it’s been repeatedly delayed. The most recent delay came just this week and while there wasn’t an official explanation provided fans think they know what’s up. Homixide Gang are supposed to be included on the tour alongside Ken Carson, Destroy Lonely, and Carti himself. But they’re currently wrapped up in a lawsuit with Live Nation spawning from an on-stage incident last year that would make touring difficult.

Playboi Carti hasn’t confirmed when he is planning on releasing a new album but fans are loving the new singles. His last record came out more than 3 years ago on Christmas Day 2020. What do you think of the newly unearthed video of Playboi Carti being arrested? Do you think the police were right to arrest him for driving so fast? Let us know in the comment section below.

Sexyy Red Slammed For Speeding While Pregnant, Shows Off Growing Bump

by

Despite being well into her second pregnancy, Sexyy Red has continued to put out new bangers on a regular basis and grace the stage with her signature seductive dance moves. The hitmaker clearly hasn’t allowed her growing child to stop her from making strides in her career, or living her best life. She’s coming off of an impressive year, after all, securing collabs with the likes of Drake, Lil Durk, Kevin Gates, and more.

Rolling Stone even crowned “SkeeYee” the best rap song of 2023 in their year-end list, a major feat for the breakout star. While fans are proud that Sexyy Red hasn’t let pregnancy slow her down, some feel as though she might have taken this sentiment a bit too literally. Recently, she shared a clip on Instagram from behind the wheel of a Mercedes, hitting shocking speeds of up to 130 miles per hour.

This has earned the “Pound Town” performer a fair amount of backlash, as some social media users think it was a reckless move, particularly since she’s expecting. “Mother of the year,” one Twitter user quips. “Some women shouldn’t be allowed to carry a life in their body,” another writes.

Sexyy Red has yet to respond to the backlash, but she did provide fans with an update on her growing bump. In a new clip, she’s seen posing in a mirror from the safety of her home. The St. Louis native rocks a figure-hugging dress, her belly on full display. “I’m bout to pop yall,” she captioned the clip.

T.I. Pulled Over By Georgia State Trooper Following Argument With Tiny: Watch

by

T.I. and Tiny Harris are one of hip-hop’s most well-known couples, and they go through peaks and valleys like any other relationship. Moreover, recent news emerged that a Georgia state trooper pulled him over for speeding, which he said was because of the woman in his passenger seat. However, in video footage of the incident, we never see the woman in question, so it’s unclear if it’s really his wife or not. Regardless, according to Live PD Hardcore, an officer made a traffic stop after they saw a Range Rover speeding on the Atlanta highway.

“You just flew past my door at a very high rate of speed. You drove on the shoulder back there and almost struck that car,” they told the rapper, and asked him to exit the vehicle. “She was getting on my nerves,” T.I. responded, referring to the unidentified woman in his passenger seat. “I apologize. She was getting under my skin. I just wanted to get home as fast as I could so we can get out of the car, and I can go to my space and she can go to her space.” Again, we don’t know if this is Tiny, but unless this exposed an even more scandalous story, this is the next best theory.

T.I.’s Traffic Stop: Watch

Furthermore, T.I. struggled to provide the car’s registration because he apparently bought the Range Rover that same day. While footage of this came out in early December, the officer’s dash cam video doesn’t have the specific date of the traffic stop. Still, the trooper confirmed some information with the car dealership’s owner, and dismissed King and Domani’s father with three citations. As of writing this article, he has yet to address this situation publicly, so hopefully that means that everything smoothed out both in terms of the pull-over and the argument with Tiny.

Meanwhile, the trap music pioneer is feeling quite reflective these days with some family drama to consider. In addition, he recently reflected on his squashed beef with Gucci Mane, and how he feels he waited too long to make it happen. With that in mind, what’s another rap beef that you wish would end with a buried hatchet? Let us know in the comments and come back to HNHH for more news and updates on T.I.

Blueface’s Mom Caught Speeding With Tints As Police Pull Her Over On Live

by

The more we get to know Karlissa Saffold, the easier it is to understand why Blueface’s behaviour is so questionable at times. It seems he learned many of his toxic traits from the reality starlet, who’s never held back on publicly bashing her son or his two baby mamas. Saffold’s opinions on people are fickle and tend to be in alignment with how Blue sees the world so that she might stay in his good graces. Of course, they still often come to blows, with the father of three most recently having to put his mother on blast for dissing Jaidyn Alexis’ BBL.

When she’s not chiming in on whatever drama is unfolding with Blue and those around him, Saffold loves to share her daily life with her followers. This past weekend, it seems she ran into a rough patch when a police officer pulled the rapper’s mother over for speeding and having tints on her vehicle. Rather than recount the moment with a story time after, Karlissa’s assistant began live streaming the awkward encounter on the side of the road.

Karlissa Saffold Takes Advantage of Being Blueface’s Mom

“I was flirting with him, he was cute as f**k,” the woman behind the camera tells her boss. “He kept telling me to get back, I’m not going to jail for y’all! That’s Blueface’s mom, she didn’t do nothing wrong,” Saffold’s staff member insists while waiting outside the whip. “I’m just saying, we can try to get out of the ticket,” she further speculated.

As Karlissa Saffold narrowly avoids conflict with law enforcement, her son is also doing what he can to stay out of trouble. Earlier this month, Blueface was granted a 24-month suspended sentence for his role in a strip club shooting, meaning he can avoid a hard time if he’s able to keep a good head on his shoulders and avoid being around weapons. Unfortunately, it seems his second baby mama and her new boo are doing all they can to provoke him. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Video From Marquise Brown’s 2022 Speeding Arrest Released

by

Marquise “Hollywood” Brown received a less-than-ideal welcome to Arizona after being traded to the Cardinals last year. In August, the wide receiver was arrested for speeding. Reportedly, Brown was going 126 MPH in a 65 MPH zone. After being detained on Arizona State Route 101, Brown was booked into Maricopa County Jail for a Class 3 misdemeanor. The punishment for Brown’s arrest was not made public. Furthermore, Brown was not punished by the NFL for the incident. “We are aware of the situation regarding Hollywood Brown and have reported it to the NFL office as required,” the Cardinals said in a statement. “We will comment further as appropriate.”

Brown was traded on Draft Day 2022, moving from Baltimore to Arizona along with a third-round pick in exchange for a first-round pick. While the move reunited Brown with his college quarterback Kyler Murray, he had a down season in the desert. He was unable to replicate his 1000-yard season from 2021 and finished the year with 709 yards and three touchdowns. However, 2023 should be a bounce-back year following the departure of the previous WR1, DeAndre Hopkins. Despite this, people are once again talking about Brown’s arrest after TMZ obtained and released the arresting officer’s bodycam footage.

Brown Arrest Video Released

The video shows the arresting officer acting incredibly aggressively with the NFL receiver. After pulling Brown over, the officer moves to Brown’s vehicle and begins attempting to open the door while demanding that Brown “get out of the car right now.” When asked “why the hell he was going that fast,” Brown explains that he was going to football practice. As the officer continues to chastise Brown, Brown, who appears very compliant and polite, repeatedly explains that he is “new here.”

The officer appears calmer once back in his cruiser with Brown, referring to him as “bro” and explaining how to identify the carpool lanes, which Brown was also reportedly driving in. It’s not an especially exciting arrest video, as Brown is very compliant and eager not to anger the officer. That’s a major contrast to the recently released arrest video of DJ Hernandez. In that arrest video, the former college QB is seen asking officers to “shoot me” before being tased as he tried to approach them.

Jordan Addison Cited For Going 140mph In A 55mph Zone

by

Jordan Addison, a rookie wide receiver for the Minnesota Vikings, has reportedly been cited for reckless driving by Minnesota State Police. According to law enforcement officials, Addison was stopped on I-94 outside Minneapolis at 3:07AM on July 20. A state trooper had caught Addison’s Lamborghini Urus traveling at 140mph in a 55mph zone. The rookie was cited for speeding and reckless driving. “This remains an open investigation,” MSP officials said.

Of course, there has been a lot of focus on football players and dangerous driving in the last few months. An investigation found that, despite tragic deaths in January, a culture of reckless driving appears to have emerged at the University of Georgia. Furthermore, former Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs is looking at 3-10 years in prison after he killed a woman in a 2021 car crash. It is believed that Ruggs was going 120mph when he struck the vehicle driven by Tina Tintor. Tintor and her dog burned to death in the resulting crash.

Addison Citation Blow To Vikings Preparations

Addison was selected 23rd overall by the Vikings in the most recent draft. The 6″0 receiver spent the 2022 season at USC, having previously played two seasons at Pitt. Once regarded as a top-10 pick, Addison was unable to reproduce his top-tier numbers from 2021 in his final college season. He finished 2022 with 875 yards and 8 TDs, down from 1593 yards and 17 TDs the year prior.

He joins a receiving core that is looking to put on a more complete display compared to last season. Addison is supposed to be the headliner alongside Justin Jefferson, who is widely regarded as the best wideout in the league. It’s unclear if Addison’s citation will affect his presence at training camp. However, it’s far from the start to his NFL tenure that he was likely hoping for. As for the incident itself, the Vikings released a brief statement. “We are aware of last night’s traffic incident involving Jordan Addison and are gathering additional information,” the team said.

Marquise Brown Sentenced In Speeding Case

by

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marquise Brown received his sentencing for a speeding case. TMZ has reported that Brown will pay a $473 fine. In February, Brown pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of excessive speeding. Brown was arrested in August of 2022 on these charges. According to police, the Cardinals receiver was caught going 126 mph in a 65 mph zone. The NFL star was driving a 2020 Mercedes during the incident. The incident took place in Maricopa County.

In 2022, Brown finished his first season with the Arizona Cardinals. After spending his first three seasons with the Baltimore Ravens, he was traded to Arizona. Brown competed in 12 games for the Cardinals. Grabbing just three touchdowns on 709 receiving yards. The speeding incident took place before the 2022 regular season began. However, an incident of this magnitude could’ve still weighed heavy on the Arizona star. With so much happening in his life, it’s easy to say that Brown was distracted in 2022. One can only hope Brown sees a more positive 2023.

Marquise Brown Avoids Jail Time In Speeding Incident

Brown’s 2022 campaign was hit with injuries and this incident. The young receiver is hopeful for a turnaround in 2023. “Hollywood’s” biggest season came in 2021 with the Ravens. The Lamar Jackson-Marquise Brown connection was a deadly combination for Baltimore. Brown finished 2021 with over one thousand yards receiving and six touchdown catches. A healthy Brown would be a huge factor for an Arizona team that is looking to fix a struggling offense. Just how will Brown fit in a new-look offense in the desert? A talent like Brown would be easy to plug into any offense.

It seems as if Brown understands the ramifications of his actions. Brown will hopefully put this incident behind him. Only time will tell if Brown has learned from the 2022 incident. While looking ahead to the 2023 season, will Brown have a clear mind? Will the Cardinals right the ship under a new regime? The aforementioned injuries of 2022 are hopefully behind him as well. Can Brown return to his 2021 form? Let us know in the comment section below. For the latest news on the happenings of the NFL, stay with us at HNHH.
