Trapboy Freddy Revamps A Dallas Classic On “Oakcliff” Ft. Yella Beezy & More

by

It’s been over 10 years since Hotboy Star and Young Nino set Dallas ablaze by putting on for their neighborhood with, “Oakcliff That’s My Hood.” The regional anthem continues to shut down clubs within the region to this day, though it never witnessed that much success outside of the Dallas area. This week, Trapboy Freddy revamped the record, along with some assistance from its originators, as well as Smurf Franklin and Yella Beezy. “Oakcliff” is essentially a modernized take of the record that brings some prominent figures from the area to revisit the classic song.

The song was so big that apparently, people from outside of the area began claiming Oakcliff. “They started a fucking movement with that shit, bro,” Yella Beezy explained on HNHH’s On The Come Up of the impact of “Oakcliff That’s My Hood.” “Like, n***as that weren’t even from Oak Cliff, they were claiming that. Like, you had to really ask people their address, and who they knew, and what school, or who they hung with. Like, you had to dig into it because everybody wanted to false claim Oak Cliff at this time, when that song came out, you know what I’m saying?”

Check the song out below.

Quotable Lyrics
A thousand for a zip, 32 for a pound of purp
Ya n***a die, we fuck around and put your homie on a shirt
Got 80 thousand on my shirt, 30 for a block of work
I ain’t been up on that rap shit, I’ve been tryna been tryna wrap some shirts

Air Jordan 5 “Blue Bird” Set For October: First Look

by

Last year was a special one for the Air Jordan 5 as the silhouette celebrated its 30th anniversary. As many of you already know, the Air Jordan 5 is a sneaker that helped kick off the 90s which was a very special time for fashion and various aesthetic movements. With its unique shark teeth, the Jordan 5 became a classic Jordan Brand shoe that is underrated compared to some of its counterparts. Over the last year, numerous colorways have made their way to the market, and now, yet another has been teased.

According to the Instagram sneaker insider @zsneakerheadz, the new offering is called “Blue Bird” and it is a women’s exclusive. As you can see in the photoshop rendering below, the shoe is mostly comprised of a blue upper, while the midsole is white, and the shark teeth are silver. Even the tongue is silver which is mostly likely indicative of some 3M details that will truly shine in the right circumstances. Overall, it’s yet another dope and clean Air Jordan 5 colorway that fans can get themselves behind.

The post below claims the shoe will be released on October 7th of this year although the date is subject to change. With this in mind, keep it locked to HNHH as we will be sure to bring you all of the latest updates and information.

DJ Megan Ryte Employs Kranium, Casanova, And Rich The Kid For “Fly”

by

On “Fly,” Kranium, Casanova, and Rich The Kid talk about being so obsessed with someone that you just have to fly them out for a baecation. The artists seem so blinded by love on the track that money doesn’t matter, rapping, “Baby, fly with me, yeah, everything nice / You can get what you want, don’t check the price.” 

DJ Megan Ryte comes through on the track with a percussion-heavy, danceable beat, one that will inevitably become the sound of the summer as the weather gets warmer. Ryte, a multi-hyphenate artist and Renaissance woman of sorts, currently has her own show on New York’s legendary HOT 97 where she mixes current, trendy music on weekdays. She has traveled around the world as a tour DJ for years before making her own music, dropping two singles with notable names like Tory Lanez, Joey Bada$$, and Yung Bleu. 

Her debut album releases on April 16th and it is certainly not one to be missed, so be sure to listen to the new track and watch the accompanying music video below. 

Quotable Lyrics
I got a bae with a bae on the side
Baby girl, what’s your name? What’s your sign?
You could stay or you could just stay the night
We could hit the beach in Greece, I’ll pay for your flight

Cardi B Denied A Rumor That Eminem Turned Down A Collaboration With Her: ‘This Don’t Even Make Sense’

Cardi B has been dealing with a heavy dose of negative comments recently, especially after her Grammy performance of “WAP” and “Up” that once again left conservatives up in arms. It hasn’t stopped her success, in fact, much of the criticism toward her comes as a result of her achievements, like “Up” recently becoming the fifth No. 1 single of her career.

Despite this, people still find a way to try and paint her in a bad light, including a rumor that she dismissed recently on Twitter. The artist responded to a claim that Eminem turned down a potential collaboration with Cardi because “she doesn’t care about the culture or her craft.” Once Cardi caught wind of the tweet, she quickly shut it down.

“I get off the internet and ya makin sh*t up,” she said. “I haven’t sent no songs to no artist yet. Love his work and much respect. This don’t even make sense.”

While the collaboration with Eminem isn’t one that’s been put in motion yet, Cardi did tease the existence of other songs with artists that have yet to be named. “Since they like to make up LIES about me cause their so obsessed just know this,” she added. “Y’all laughing about this fake rumor but wait until y’all see these next collars (winking emoji).”

Beyonce Had More Than $1 Million In Property Stolen From Storage Units In Multiple Heists

Earlier this month, Beyonce became the most-awarded singer in Grammy history after picking up four wins at the 2021 edition of the music awards. While that was certainly a high moment for her, it occurred around an unfortunate event with the singer’s belongings. On Saturday, TMZ revealed that Beyonce was robbed of more than $1 million worth of property from her storage unit after two heists earlier this month. Law enforcement told the publication that thieves went through multiple storage units in the Los Angeles area that were filled with various items the singer owned.

TMZ added that while the units were rented out by the singer’s production company, Parkwood Entertainment, the missing items from the first heist, which included expensive handbags and dresses, all belonged to Beyonce. Within a week of this first robbery, the thieves returned for a second time and went through three units in the same facility. This time, they took off with handbags, kids toys, and photos that were owned by one of Beyonce’s stylists. The “Black Parade” singer is not the only artist to recently have their things stolen from a storage unit. Earlier this year, Miley Cyrus lost clothes, family photos, and mementos after her storage space was robbed.

While Beyonce set some records of her own at this year’s Grammy Awards, she also had a hand in notable moments with other artists. With “Brown Skin Girl” winning Best Music Video, her daughter Blue Ivy, who appeared in the visual, became one of the youngest Grammy winners in history. Beyonce and Megan Thee Stallion also became the first female winners of the Best Rap Performance award thanks to “Savage.”

King Von’s Accused Killer Lul Tim Reportedly Released On $100K Bond

by

The death of King Von was a particular tragedy that the hip-hop community is still reeling from. The budding Chicago rapper was shot and killed in Atlanta after an altercation with a member of Quando Rondo’s camp. Lul Tim, an affiliate of Quando, was arrested for Von’s murder and has remained in prison since he was apprehended by authorities.

It seems that Lul Tim was released on bond, according to members of Quando Rondo’s camp. Two accounts that are among the 10 followed by Quando Rondo’s Instagram account posted photos of Tim in celebration of his alleged release. “Ain’t no more free lul tim. Welcome cacc cuz,” Jumpout Blacc wrote on his IG. Another account @333pab also shared a celebratory post, “@lul_timm3 Pluto otw next welcome home cuz!”

Outlets like SayCheeseTV and VladTV have reported that Lul Tim, real name Timothy Leeks, was released from jail on $100K bond. SayCheeseTV said that he was released last night and shared his mugshot.

Though Quando Rondo hasn’t made any public comments regarding Lul Tim’s reported release, he’s continuously shown his support for him since the murder of Von in November. Just a few weeks ago, as fans called for Rondo to be more compassionate towards Von’s family, Rondo said that the late Chicago rapper “got himself in that situation.”

We’ll keep you posted on any updates regarding Lul Tim’s case.

Miley Cyrus Spends Night Out With Yungblud, Romance Rumors Fly

by

On Thursday, Miley Cyrus was spending a night out in Los Angeles at the famous Rainbow Bar and Grill celebrating the 15th anniversary of her classic television show Hannah Montana. Paparazzi photos and eyewitness reports say that Yungblud and Miley Cyrus were cozying up to each other at the restaurant, with him laying his legs across hers and putting his finger in her mouth. Cyrus was also seen taking shots at the restaurant, which could be a contributor to why the two were being so flirty. 

 

“She was very happy and in her element. She was belting out songs at the table and full of life,” an eyewitness told E! Online. “There was a vibe between them and they didn’t take their eyes off of each other,” said another eyewitness. According to a source close to Cyrus, the two are not together, stating, “Miley and Yungblud were definitely flirting with each other, but they are not dating. It was just a fun night out with friends, but there is definitely chemistry there.”

Miley may have fallen off the wagon again with her drinking after telling Rolling Stone that while she had broken her sobriety during the COVID-19 pandemic, she was attempting to stay sober again. “Then by 27, [November 2019] I was pretty much fully sober. Then, like a lot of people during the pandemic, I fell off,” she said in January. “It was really a struggle. Mental health and anxiety and all that. I lost myself there, and now I’m back on five weeks.”

While it doesn’t seem like there’s a confirmed romance between Miley and Yungblud yet, a relationship could certainly be on the horizon. This is currently a developing story, so we’ll keep you updated if anything new goes down between Miley and Yungblud. What would you think about this potential celebrity couple? Let us know your thoughts down in the comments.
