Blueface Goes Face-To-Face With TikTok Star Ahead Of Boxing Match

by

With celebrity boxing matches fetching millions of dollars, it should be no surprise that a plethora of artists are looking to get into the ring. Boxing has proven to be a very lucrative business endeavor and Blueface understands that better than anyone. In fact, he recently signed a contract with the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championships, where he will get to experience his first-ever fight on July 23rd. Blueface has been teasing this for a while now, and on Friday night, he finally got to go face-to-face with his opponent.

The opponent in question is TikTok comedian Kane Trujillo who doesn’t exactly look like the fighting type. The man is a lot smaller than Blueface and during the faceoff, he seemed more interested in cracking jokes than actually engaging in any sort of fight.

“Told them bring me anybody an they brought me spiderman I didn’t choose him he chose me,” Blueface wrote on Instagram. Based on his recent Instagram videos, it looks like the artist is taking the sport seriously and his training has been nothing short of impressive. Perhaps if he wins his first fight, he will get some more high-profile opponents in the future.

After all, Blueface is a natural athlete and this fight will provide a platform for him to showcase his talents.

Chauncey Billups Set To Become Blazers Head Coach

by

Chauncey Billups was a solid player during his time in the NBA and ever since his retirement, he has become a respected assistant coach who has done some impressive work. He is currently an assistant coach on the Los Angeles Clippers, who are currently in the midst of their best playoff run in the history of the franchise. Billups knows how to relate to his players, and as a result, he has been considered for various head coaching positions.

This past week, Billups and San Antonio Spurs assistant coach Becky Hammon became finalists for the head coaching job with the Portland Trail Blazers. Last night, it was reported that Billups had been chosen for the job and as of right now, he is working out a new contract with the Blazers. The contract is expected to be finalized over the weekend.

Billups will now get to coach a team that features the likes of Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum. While the Blazers always end up making the playoffs, there is no denying that they have had issues when it comes to escaping the first round. With this in mind, Billups is coming in with big expectations, especially since Lillard could decide to leave if the results don’t come fast.

Stay tuned to HNHH for more news from around the NBA.

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Reportedly Robbed By Three Gunmen

by

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope has been a solid player for the Los Angeles Lakers over the past few years and he was instrumental in the team’s massive championship win back in 2020. He has cemented himself as a fan-favorite in Los Angeles and heading into next season, he will be a key part of the Lakers’ depth. Unfortunately, the NBA star went through a very scary incident on June 17th at his home in Los Angeles, according to TMZ.

In the report, it was revealed that Caldwell-Pope was chilling with some friends in his driveway, when all of a sudden, three men pulled up with guns and demanded that KCP and his friends give up their goods. In the end, the men made off with a watch, jewelry, and some other goods. In total, $150,000 worth of items were stolen. Thankfully, KCP and his friends were unharmed in the incident.

As it stands, the Los Angeles Police Department is looking into the situation although for now, it doesn’t seem like they have any leads on who the perpetrators were. When it comes to KCP, he has yet to make a statement on the matter, although we’re sure he is taking some time to himself after such a traumatic experience.

In the aftermath of this incident, we hope KCP is doing well, as you never want to see this sort of thing happen. Hopefully, he is able to get his stuff back.

Doja Cat & J.I.D Offer An Unexpected Collab On “Options”

by

Doja Cat has become one of the biggest names in pop and hip-hop over the past couple of years and for good reason. She has a knack for writing hit songs and leading up to the release of Planet Her, fans were expecting more of her signature sound. Yesterday, the project was released to the masses and while Doja Cat finds herself experimenting on the album, there is no doubt that her pop aesthetics are still here. There are some dope tracks to be found here, including “Options” which contains an amazing feature from J.I.D.

This song is immediately recognizable thanks to the flute melody that plays in the background. Doja rides the beat well as she mostly finds herself rapping throughout the first portion of the song. From there, she gets into her singing bag, all while J.I.D makes his appearance in the second half of the song. J.I.D’s verse is multifaceted and has two distinct flows that switch up seemingly out of nowhere.

Overall, it’s another dope Doja Cat track and you can check it out, below.

Quotable Lyrics:

We don’t speak, just fuck a twice a week
And if she like freaks, we must try a threesome
Do it on the beach, in the sand, let me see sumn’
Seashells on the shore, I’m a beach bum

Quotable Lyrics:

I’ma travel the globe, you keep the block hot
Driver, open the door for me, my hand hurt
