Kevin Gates Posts NSFW Childbirth Video On Instagram

by

Congratulations to Kevin Gates and Dreka Haynes on the birth of their child. However, in 2013, Gates told Complex, “It really doesn’t make sense to say [how many kids I have]. Not in a bad way, but it’s not like the public will ever get to see my children.”

Well, it seems that Gates’ opinion has changed after he posted a very explicit video to his Instagram story. HotNewHipHop has chosen not to share a link to the video. However, the video is a very graphic clip taken from the birth of Gates’ newest. When say we graphic, we mean that it puts most sex ed videos to shame. Gates’ wife Dreka Haynes is visibly giving birth in the clip. You have been warned.

Twitter Melts Down Over Kevin Gates Video

Safe to say, people weren’t jazzed about the video. “DO NOT LOOK AT KEVIN GATES INSTAGRAM STORY. TRUST ME.” writes one user. A number of users posting gifs and videos implying they were going to kill themselves so they could forget having seen the video. We’re all for the miracle of childbirth but damn, maybe not your Instagram Story? What makes it even worse is that it’s on his story. There’s no way to know what he posted until you click on it and have witnessed it for yourself.

Again, this is what Gates said in 2013. “I got some children. I’m real real close with them. I lay in the bed with them, hold them, love on them. It really doesn’t make sense to say [how many kids I have]. Not in a bad way, but it’s not like the public will ever get to see my children, and if they do see them, they aren’t going to know they’re mine.” How can you say that and then put your wife’s whole deal on the internet like that? There’s a whole baby coming out of her and you’re just like, “hell yeah, let’s put this on Instagram”

Freddie Gibbs’ Pregnant Ex-GFs Twitter Exposé Earns Him “Spreadie Gibbs” Nickname

by

It’s been an undeniably tough few days for Indiana-born rapper Freddie Gibbs, who was the victim of a Twitter exposé at the hands of his ex-girlfriend earlier this week. According to Destini, better known online as The Fit Mami, her former lover spent months discussing the idea of starting a family with her, but when she actually became pregnant, feelings suddenly changed. In a string of sweets, the adult actress claimed that, after Gibbs told her he wasn’t ready to become a father, she told him that she couldn’t be in a relationship with someone who wanted her to get an abortion.

While she did take a trip to the clinic to consider terminating, Destini found out at the appointment she was further along than anticipated and instead opted to continue on with her journey to motherhood. The 40-year-old’s ex says that he hasn’t checked in on her since their last conversation, despite her attempts to contact his team and others around him. Feeling helpless, she turned to social media to share her story, which has since gotten plenty of attention online. It seems her recount even led Gibbs to block her, as she made note of in an NSFW tweet shared on Friday (May 5).

The Fit Mami’s Twitter Antics Continue

“Blocking me on Twitter while I have a picture of you spreading your asshole in my phone is insane,” The Fit Mami wrote yesterday morning. “Imma spare them that one though.” True to her word, the salacious image has yet to see the light of day, though it has caused “Spreadie Gibbs” to begin trending on Twitter as ops of the “Gang Signs” hitmaker troll him online over the allegations.

Elsewhere on her profile, the expecting model has urged users to stop begging her to see the photo, while also condemning those criticizing her decision to move forward as a single mother. “This is a baby we literally PLANNED,” she reminded them. “My heart was in it. I’m pro-choice but I could not go through the procedure knowing I purposely brought this baby here. My child will be taken care of REGARDLESS.” Read more of what Destini had to say about Freddie Gibbs and her decision to keep their baby below.

Nick Cannon’s Exes Are To Thank For His “Toxic Origin Story,” Father Of 12 Says

by

Not only does Nick Cannon have a dozen children in his life to take care of, but the California native also has six baby mamas to consider when making major life decisions. Mariah Carey, Brittany Bell, Abby De La Rosa, Bre Tiesi, LaNisha Cole, and Alyssa Scott are the women he co-parents with. Understandably, his relationship with some appears to be stronger than others. He and De La Rosa work together at The Daily Cannon, but Nick and Carey are known to have their spats. Elsewhere, Cole was recently left to deal with watching the actor forget their daughter’s name during an interview.

He’s obviously not perfect. Still, the 42-year-old tries his best to show up for his kids. He even rented out Six Flags to celebrate his eldest set of twins’ birthdays. He shares much of his life and has always been candid about how being a father of 12 impacts his busy schedule. Cannon has also regularly been outspoken about his love life, as we saw on Twitter this past Thursday (May 4). In the early morning hours, he used the platform to get a few things off his chest. Mostly he spoke about past romances that have shaped him into the man we see before us today.

Nick Cannon Thanks His Former Lovers on Twitter

“Shoutout to all my toxic people that ever broke up with somebody because they thought somebody was about to break up with their somebody,” he wrote. It remains unclear if Cannon was being sarcastic and laughing at the complicated nature of modern dating, or dishing about a situation he’s been experiencing in his own life. “To all my exes, thanks for the toxic origin story,” Cannon added in another tweet an hour later. “Gladly turning into the villain all y’all want me to be!”

As AllHipHop notes, Nick Cannon has been linked to some beautiful famous faces aside from his baby mamas. The list includes the likes of Kim Kardashian, Christina Milan, and Selita Ebanks, just to name a few. Do you have any exes who have notably contributed to your origin story? Let us know in the comments, and tap back in with HNHH later for more pop culture news updates.

Joel Embiid Returns But Sixers Suffer Blowout Loss

by

After missing the past two games, Joel Embiid was finally able to return to the court for the Philadelphia 76ers. The Sixers had managed without him in Game 1 against the Boston Celtics, largely thanks to James Harden. Harden had put up 45 points to steal a road win in Boston. However, the Sixers needed Embiid back on the court to stand a chance at weathering the Boston storm long-term.

However, the Sixers’ Game 1 win put the team in a good position. Rather than utilize Embiid to play catch up on their Eastern Conference rivals, they could use their MVP to extend their lead. The Sixers have not progressed past the Conference Semifinals since the 2000-01 season. They are 0-6 in the second round of the playoffs since that season. Two of those series losses have come against the Celtics.

Celtics Rout Sixers

So about capitalizing on that lead with Embiid back. Understandably, Doc Rivers played his MVP cautiously. The center had 15 points, 3 rebounds, and 5 blocks in 27 minutes. However, no one was able to set up to replace his productivity, even with Rivers using all but one of his bench players. Tobias Harris led the team in scoring with 16 points. Meanwhile, Philly’s nine bench players saw a combined 97 minutes on the floor but only managed to add 26 points, 14 rebounds, and 6 assists. Embiid and Harris were the only Sixers starters to reach 15 points.

The real story of the game came from the Celtics’ defense. After allowing the Sixers to sink 17 threes in Game 1, Boston forced an awful 6-for-30 shooting night from behind the arc in Game 2. While Jayson Tatum put up just seven points on a foul-riddled night, other Celtics stepped up offensively. Jaylen Brown led all scorers with 25 points while Marcus Brogdon added 23 from the bench. The resulting 121-87 drubbing becomes Philly’s fourth-worst playoff loss in team history. Ironically, the worst playoff loss, a 40-point loss in 1982, also came at the hands of the Celtics. However, the Sixers will get the chance to bounce back at home as the series moves to Philadelphia. The Sixers went 29-12 at Wells Fargo Center during the regular season. Game 3 is set for May 5 at 7:30pm.

Lakers Put Up Historic Performance To Top Warriors

by

After dominating the Memphis Grizzlies in the first round of the NBA playoffs, the Los Angeles Lakers had made their intentions clear. They may be the seven-seed, but they are no underdog. Meanwhile, the Warriors overcame an 0-2 deficit to top the Sacramento Kings in the first round. After Draymond Green’s mid-series suspension, the Warriors came alive. Behind Steph, Klay, and their deep supporting cast, they flashed their potential once again.

Those two series victories set up an all-star, all-California second-round series. However, despite the tantalizing premise of LeBron versus Steph, the two teams have surprisingly little playoff history. This 2023 series is just the eighth playoff matchup between the Lakers and Warriors. Furthermore, it is the first time they have met in the playoffs since 1991. Heading into Tuesday’s Game 1, the Lakers led the Warriors 24-11 in playoff matches.

Lakers Prevail in High-Scoring, Historic Matchup

The Lakers came into this matchup knowing that if they wanted to stand any chance of winning, they needed to lock down on defense. Specifically, they needed to defend the perimeter in a way they hadn’t against the Grizzlies. They would also need to dominate the backcourt paint to ensure Steph and Klay didn’t spend the whole night being fed second chances. In this regard, they absolutely succeeded. Anthony Davis pulled down 19 defensive rebounds on a 23-rebound night. He also recorded the first 30-20 game by a Laker since Shaq. LeBron also put up a double-double, with 22 points and 11 rebounds.

However, the Warriors never let the Lakers run away with the game. Despite increased perimeter defense, Golden State made some history of their own. Steph, Klay, and Jordan Poole became the first trio in NBA playoff history to all make at least six threes in a game. In fact, with 9.1 seconds remaining, Poole had the chance to tie the game at 115. However, his three-point attempt from 28 feet out didn’t sink and the Lakers held on for a 117-112 win. This was just the tenth loss the Warriors had suffered at home this season. Despite the disappointment, they have shown that they can keep pace with the Lakers. The series will resume on Thursday.

Cardi B Shuts Down La La Anthony Beef Rumours: “She Has Helped Me A LOT!!!”

by

Last evening’s Met Gala appeared to go down without any drama or major incidents – though there were plenty of cats (and a cockroach) on the red carpet. On hosting duty for Vogue was La La Anthony, who spoke with a number of celebrities about their designer outfits for the evening. Among them were Ice Spice, as well as Cardi B, who’s been friends with the Power actress for some time now. Of course, it’s well known that Anthony is popular within the Hollywood circle, as she has close relationships with stars like Kim Kardashian and Ciara, just to name a few.

Despite her obviously being well-liked, internet trolls still tried to start beef between the Invasion of Privacy rapper and La La after seeing a video of their interview on Twitter. “It’s so obvious that she can’t stand her😭💀,” one of them wrote, getting attention from Cardi herself, who didn’t hesitate to clear up the speculation with a quickness. “Not true,” she wrote on Tuesday (May 2). “I talk to La La more than any celeb… She knows everything!!! If you ever need something she knows all the contacts,” the mother of two gave the socialite her flowers.

Cardi B Denies Disliking La La Anthony

According to Cardi, Anthony has “helped [her] A LOT!!!” amid her come-up in the industry. Aside from shutting down slander this afternoon, the New Yorker also shared a photo dump from last night on her Instagram feed, thanking those involved in the making of just one of her many stunning looks. “I love this dress soo much 🎀. And YES pink reminds me of Chanel,” her caption reads.

“Whenever they drop any shades of a pink collection I go buy it lol… @miss_sohee thank you so much for this beautiful dream dress. Thank you so much @kollincarter for putting it together.” Check out Cardi B’s latest IG post commerating her time at the 2023 Met Gala below, and let us know if you like her dress in the comments.

A$AP Rocky Tweets At Woman He Jumped Over Ahead Of The Met Gala

by

A$AP Rocky and Rihanna may have been fashionably late to the 2023 Met Gala, but the soon-to-be father of two didn’t hesitate to make waves in a big way in the hours ahead of the event. While apparently on his way to get ready for his night out with the Bad Gal, the Testing rapper walked through a crowd waiting in a queue with his hood up and sunglasses on in hopes of maintaining some degree of anonymity. As he neared the end of the lineup, Rocky braced himself to jump over the waist-high gate, unfortunately using the face of a woman beside him as leverage.

In a video taken of the incident, she’s obviously angered by the confusing interaction, especially considering she’s wearing glasses that easily could’ve broken her nose, or themselves. Once A$AP turns around to reveal his identity, however, her body language immediately changes to utter shock when she realizes which famous rapper just had his millionaire hands on her face. As the footage continues to circulate online, many have been laughing at the New Yorker’s antics, while others are encouraging the woman to take legal action against him.

A$AP Rocky Surprises Fans in New York

After taking a minute to recover, the woman – who’s now been identified as @youareasapmadz on Twitter – posted about the major moment online. “A$AP ROCKY JUST USED ME TO JUMP OVER THE BARRICADE HELLO,” her first post on Monday (May 1) night reads. “A$AP Rocky just literally jumped over me,” Maddy wrote in another one, this time including a selfie so people might recognize her from the viral video.

Elsewhere on her profile, the “victim” made it abundantly clear that she has no plans to take legal action against the entertainer. “Stop asking if I’m suing A$AP,” she begged curious users. “Literally how would I do that?” Maddy asked, pointing out that she doesn’t have much of a case as she doesn’t seem to have sustained any injuries.

Kehlani’s Something In The Water Festival Set Trends On Twitter

by

Coachella is obviously one of the biggest festivals to take place in the spring and summer months, but after it ends there’s still plenty more excitement and live entertainment to be seen. This weekend, Pharrell Williams’ Something in the Water is taking place in his home state of Virginia, and the lineup is seriously stacked, to say the least. Things began on Friday (April 28) with Kid Cudi headlining the Solar Stage while Mumford & Sons took over the Lunar Stage. Earlier in the day, patrons also saw NLE Choppa, Doechii, Skrillex, Wale, and Kehlani, among others.

The latter R&B diva’s set obviously made an impression, as she began trending on Twitter on Saturday (April 29). Many in attendance have been sharing beautiful snapshots they captured of the sultry vocalist on stage, while others have been uploading videos of their favourite performances from her roughly 40-minute-long setlist. Thankfully, the entire thing was on a live stream, allowing fans of Kehlani to tune into their incredible show from the comfort of home.

Kehlani Kills Their Something in the Water Performance

There were some slight technical difficulties in the beginning, but ultimately, the “Did I” hitmaker put on a show that won’t soon be forgotten. “Kehlani’s microphone stays on,” one YouTube user pointed out after watching the stream. “She’s gonna show up ad sing! So underrated.” Aside from just sounding good, ‘lani also captivated viewers with their alluring good looks and obvious glow.

Day two of the festival is officially underway, and attendees are more than excited to catch headliners Lil Wayne and Pharrell’s Phriends later this evening. Before they close things out, acts like Latto, Coi Leray, the Jonas Brothers, Lil Yachty, and Summer Walker are due to entertain the crowd. Sunday will also bring more live performances from some of our favourites, which are sure to result in more viral moments and flowers given. Scroll further to see more photos and videos from Kehlani’s time at Something in the Water. For more pop culture and music news updates, make sure to tap back in with HNHH later this weekend.

Mac Miller Trends On Twitter After Jack Harlow Makes Eminem Comparison On “Jackman”

by

Of the new albums that have arrived so far this weekend, arguably one of the most talked about so far is Jack Harlow’s Jackman. The 10-track, featureless effort chiefly shows off the Kentucky native’s pen game after a lukewarm reaction to his sophomore LP, Come Home The Kids Miss You. Of the titles on the tracklist, one that’s earned a significant amount of attention so far is the second, “They Don’t Love It,” on which he cleverly compares himself to Eminem – an artist he’s looked up to for most of his life.

“Ya boy’s strivin’ to be the most dominant ever / The hardest white boy since the one who rapped about vomit and sweaters,” Harlow rhymes on his latest release. While his biggest fans would obviously agree with that statement, so many were ready to argue with the “WHAT’S POPPIN” hitmaker that one of his contemporaries’ names began trending on Twitter today (April 29). According to many, the late Mac Miller is undeniably the one who deserves that moniker, not him.

Jack Harlow Calls Himself “The Hardest White Boy” Since Eminem

“Until Jack Harlow drop a verse like Paul Wall on ‘Sitting Sideways,’ or give us albums like Mac Miller he can respectfully shut the f*ck up,” one certainly upset user wrote. Another chimed in with, “Mac Miller was better than both of y’all if we being honest,” not-so-subtly dissing both Harleezy and Slim Shady. Elsewhere, others markedly begged fans to leave the fallen Circles artist’s name out of the conversation. They’ve previously done this during other online discourse, involving names like Pete Davidson, Ariana Grande, and Kanye West.

Thus far, other fan favourites from Jackman appear to be “Gang Gang Gang” and the project’s longest effort, “Blame On Me.” This is the first full-length work we’ve heard from the 25-year-old since last year’s album. Of course, he did come together with DJ Drama on “Mockingbird Valley” at the very end of March. Scroll further to read more Twitter reactions to Jack Harlow’s braggadocious bars on his new surprise project. Afterward, tell us who your personal favourite of the three white lyricists is in the comments below.

AI Biggie Covers Nas’ “N.Y. State of Mind,” Twitter Is Divided

by

Some of our favourite artists have already dropped off noteworthy new music in 2023. Unfortunately, their releases as of late are chiefly being overshadowed by the songs coming out via artificial intelligence. From hearing Kanye West take on Hit-Boy’s “2 Certified” thanks to technology to heavy hitters like Drake and Michael Jackson covering Ice Spice’s “Munch (Feelin’ U),” the entertainment has been endless, albeit damaging to the music industry. Earlier this week, a video of the late Biggie Smalls rapping Nas’ “N.Y. State of Mind” began circulating online, sparking plenty of debate amongst the hip-hop community,

The 1994 cut previously arrived on the New Yorker’s Illmatic album and remains one of the most popular in his discography to this day. Of course, The Notorious B.I.G. lost his life just three years after this, and though he and Nas had plans to collaborate (the latter previously revealed on The Breakfast Club that he “got too high” in the studio for anything to come to fruition), it ultimately never came to be. This is the closest we’ll probably ever to see to a joint effort, and while some users are loving Biggie’s flow on his friend’s song, others are frustrated with AI’s presence in the industry at the moment.

Biggie’s Unofficial “N.Y. State of Mind” Cover

♬ N.Y. State of Mind – Nas

“This made me realize Nas has the greatest flow of any rapper ever,” one Twitter user said, markedly praising the 49-year-old. Another, less pleased listener chimed in, “The gap between Biggie’s flow and Nas’ flow is f*cking me up right now. This sounds so much worse than his voice on his flow lol. Too much energy with the wrong tone.” Elsewhere, someone argued that the computer-generated audio fails to “capture Big’s essence one bit.”

Apart from the comedic, discourse-causing covers, we’ve also heard brand new lyrics written and beats crafted for Champagne Papi, The Weeknd, and more, rivalling some of their previous releases in the hearts of fans. In wake of this, music labels are beginning to take action in defence of their artists to protect their work and vocals. Keep scrolling to read Twitter’s reactions to the viral Biggie AI cover, and be sure to share your thoughts in the comments afterward.
