Hit-Boy’s production discography is immaculate, and as he concludes a year in which he has supplied Nas, Big Sean, Don Toliver, Nardo Wick, Russ, Cordae, Conway The Machine, Sada Baby, Tee Grizzley, Maxo Kream, and countless others with top-tier beats, Hit-Boy is already eyeing his next collaborator for 2022.

On Thursday, the Grammy Award-winning producer gave his fans and followers a lot of insight into the music that he is currently working on, from a half-finished album with Snoop Dogg to an album worth of material ready to go with both Roddy Ricch and Don Toliver. However, the biggest surprise of the day came when Hit-Boy revealed that he may have something in the works with Playboi Carti.

In one of his recent Instagram posts, Hit-Boy shared a screenshot of his DMs with the Whole Lotta Red artist, and although most of their conversation is redacted, one final message from Carti is visible: “I’m with u 4Ever.”

For the post’s caption, Hit-Boy wrote, “My brudda @playboicarti tapped in we haven’t worked since ‘Other Shit’ off his first album. y’all @ my boy and tell him y’all wanna see us back in.”

Revisit Hit-Boy and Playboi Carti’s previous collaboration, the Playboi Carti track “Other Shit,” below, and let us know in the comments if you’re excited to hear what the artist and producer are working on.

This season has not been a good one for the Los Angeles Lakers as they have taken numerous missteps. The team is currently sitting at a record of 17-19 which puts them on the verge of being ousted from playoff contention. It’s a harsh reality for a team that brought on a ton of veterans this season, including Rajon Rondo who played for the Lakers when they won the title back in 2020.

Unfortunately, Rondo hasn’t experienced much playing time this season, and it seemed like the Lakers simply weren’t interested in changing that. Now, those suspicions have been confirmed as it was revealed by Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN that Rondo has been dealt to the Cleveland Cavaliers in exchange for Denzel Valentine.

As Woj reports, the Lakers will probably waive Valentine so that they can have an open roster spot that can be taken up by anyone of their choice. It remains to be seen who the Lakers will seek out here, although it should be interesting to see what the Lakers decide to do in the early stages of 2022.

Of course, the trade deadline is also coming up soon, so that will only make things more interesting. With that in mind, keep it locked to HNHH for all of the latest updates from around the NBA.

In November, reports circulated that Trey Songz had been named in a sexual assault investigation in Las Vegas, and now, another accusation has been raised against the Passion, Pain & Pleasure artist.

Dylan Gonzalez, one-half of the Gonzalez Twins, hit Twitter with a serious allegation against the Grammy-nominated R&B singer early on New Year’s Eve. Gonzalez and twin her sister, Dakota, played basketball at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas during the mid-2010s until pressure from the NCAA led them to choose their music career over the college basketball campaign. However, Dylan Gonzalez’s tweet is not the music update that her supporters were likely expecting.

At 12:41 a.m. on Friday, Gonzalez wrote, “Trey Songz is a rapist. Lord forgive me I Couldn’t hold that in another year. See you in 2022.”

In the hours following her tweet, she has only reposted the message to her Instagram account, so there is currently no more information or details to explain her accusation against Trey Songz. At this time, the Grammy-nominated artist has not responded to Gonzalez’s claims, which arrive weeks after he was also named in a $20 million sexual assault lawsuit.

See Dylan Gonzalez’s tweet below.

It doesn’t look as if Bow Wow will be slowing down anytime soon, so for any ladies thinking that they will be able to cuff him up, he recently shot down that idea once again. The rapper has been tied to several women in the industry from Angela Simmons to Ciara to Kiyomi Leslie to Joie Chavis to Erica Mena to Keyshia Cole to Blac Chyna, and while he came close to marriage, Bow admitted to The Breakfast Club that he isn’t made for monogamy. 

“I’m not the type of man that goes backwards,” he said before being questioned about his relationship with Angela Simmons. “That’s my dog. I just saw Ang—me and Ang have a, it’s a crazy connection. That’s my dog. Anything she need, whatever she need, she got it.”

He admitted that Angela could be his soulmate, but Bow admitted that he “just [has] a type.” He added that Angela “is a great type” but he still likes to hit the club scene and go out and party. The Breakfast Club hosts wanted to know what type of woman could capture Bow Wow’s attention or even lock him down. 

“This is gon’ sound crazy, and I know this is…” Bow began before Charlamagne Tha God chimed in and said, “You’re a whore.” The rapper seemed to co-sign. Bow said, “I feel like God has made so many beautiful women, that for me to just be with one person… It’s just tough for me. I have a problem. It’s just hard.”

He even gave an example, revealing that he was recently at a club with an unnamed woman that angela Yee knows, and while Bow said the woman was the hottest in the room, he couldn’t help but flirt with someone else. Check out the clip of his interview below.

After a brief segment of his interview with Big Facts Podcast went viral, Nardo Wick returned with an explanation. In the clip, Nardo was speaking about his lack of motivation to find steady employment because he was making more money in the streets. “I would look at it like, I go rob a n*gga and get this much, why would I go to work?” he questioned as the podcast hosts laughed. 

While it isn’t something that seems as if it would cause an uproar, Wick decided to issue a response after receiving backlash for his remarks.

“Im not tryna influence nobody to go rob nobody, they asked a question about MY PAST and I answered it,” the rapper penned. “That’s what I was doing when I was 15-16 years old, A product of my environment. My mama had just came home from prison and it was a hard time for us and we ain’t have nothing. I would never tell or try to convince a young black man or anyone period to crash out!”

“I changed my life and started taking rapping serious because I knew that I wouldn’t make it if I kept doing what I was doin,” he added. “There is nothing wrong with a job, robbing ain’t cool at all and I ain’t try to make it seem cool I was speaking on past events.” He called his actions “young and dumb” and said he “changed for the better.”
