J. Cole Air Balls Three-Point Attempt During Second BAL Game

by

J. Cole is one of the best rappers on the planet and his latest album The Off-Season is a testament to that. However, while Cole has certainly put in work on the music side of things, he is currently in Rwanda where he is living out his dream of playing professional basketball. On Sunday, he made his debut in the Basketball Africa League and today, he got to play his second game as the Patriots took on GNBC. In the end, Cole’s team won the game to improve their record to 2-0, however, Cole himself struggled throughout the game.

In the clips below, you can see Cole perform a huge block early on in the match, although this proved to be his only notable play. In another clip posted by Ball Is Life, Cole bricked a three-point shot, and then on his second attempt, he ended up getting an airball.

At the end of the game, Cole finished with 0 points, 0 assists, 1 rebound, 1 steal, and 1 block in the span of 16 minutes. While it wasn’t the greatest showing, Cole’s team still won the game which is the only stat that really matters at the end of a match.

Cole still has between one to four games to go with the Patriots, and we’re sure he will be motivated to prove that he belongs amongst the other stars in the league.

In late 2020, it was rumored that ASAP Rocky and Rihanna had started dating. Indeed, the two are a happy couple, and in a new GQ profile, Rocky offered an update of how things are going by declaring that she is “the one.”

The piece notes that when Rihanna was mentioned to Rocky, “he starts beaming like a teenager whose crush just accepted his prom invite.” It also notes that Rocky calls her “the love of my life” and “my lady.” Later, he was asked what it’s like to be in a relationship and he responded, “So much better. So much better when you got the One. She amounts to probably, like, a million of the other ones. […] I think when you know, you know. She’s the One.”

He also seems open to the prospect of fatherhood, saying, “If that’s in my destiny, absolutely. I think I’m already a dad! All these motherf*ckers are already my sons — whatchu talkin’ ’bout! [laughs] Nah, but like, I think I’d be an incredible, remarkably, overall amazing dad. I would have a very fly child. Very.”

Elsewhere, he spoke about visiting Barbados (from where his father emigrated to the US) with Rihanna, saying it was a moving experience: “It was like a homecoming thing. It was crazy. I always imagined what it would be like for my dad, before he came to America. And I got to visit those places, and believe it or not, there was something nostalgic about it. It was foreign but familiar.”

Kevin Abstract Signals Brockhampton’s Final Run & Talks “Technical Difficulties”

by

In April, Brockhampton dropped off Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine, the group’s first album since its lauded 2019 effort Peaches. Featuring artists such as A$AP Rocky, Charlie Wilson, Danny Brown, and SoGone SoFlexy, Brockhampton’s new album was received massive critical acclaim and debuted at the eleventh spot on the Billboard 200. Unfortunately for fans of the boy band, the game-changing collective reportedly only has one album left in its queue.

However, this isn’t the first time the group has alluded to being in final album mode. According to Complex, Brockhampton frontrunner Kevin Abstract previously dropped the bombshell that Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine would be BH’s second-to-last record, and today, the Arizona Baby artist hit Twitter to further elaborate on Brockhampton’s soon-approaching coda.

Over a series of tweets, Abstract touched on the group’s forthcoming final album while denying any skepticism that Brockhampton’s members were parting ways due to any drama or negativity. In the first tweet, he prefaces the group’s imminent departure by saying, “we all love each other and we wanna continue making the best music we can.”

“everybody just getting a lil older and got a lot to say outside of group projects,” Abstract continues. “we’ve dedicated the last ten years of our lives to making music together this next project we’re just doing what’s rite.”

After confirming that Brockhampton’s follow-up to Roadrunner: New Light, New Machine will be the band’s final offering, Kevin Abstract also revealed that they still hopes to treat fans with Brockhampton’s scrapped Technical Difficulties project, even if it arrives after the group’s official final album.

“still wanna try to get technical difficulties out at some point…just hella samples to clear,” Abstract says. “so i wouldn’t even be surprised if that came after the last album…But we really want that out.”

Are you bummed out that Brockhampton is nearing its final album or are you merely excited to hear what the group has in store for its swan song?

Eminem’s Cult Horror Classic “Relapse” Kicked Off With “3 A.M”

by

Twelve years ago to this day, Eminem returned from a lengthy hiatus to release Relapse, his first album since 2004’s Encore. Produced in near-entirety by Dr. Dre, who turned in some of the most cinematic and disturbing work of his career, the project emerged as a loosely conceptual homage to horror. At the center stood an accented and maniacally depraved Slim Shady, firmly entrenched in the persona of a fictitious serial killer and determined to sow carnage.

Following “We Made You,” a clear attempt to follow the tradition of a “radio-friendly” lead single, “3 A.M” arrived to set the record straight. Fueled by a menacing Dre instrumental, Em whips together labyrinthian flows as he weaves violent tapestries. Drawing clear inspiration from notorious Silence Of The Lamb antagonist Buffalo Bill — the killer who may very well be Eminem’s main inspiration, alongside Psycho’s Norman Bates — Em set the table for an album that would one day become widely regarded as a cult classic.

In fact, it’s become increasingly common to see Relapse regarded among his best bodies of work — a contrasting opinion to his own, which still seems rather tepid about the project. Here’s hoping that Em can begin to see Relapse in a new light; as fans already know, its long-lost sequel currently remains indefinitely vaulted. Yet as any good horror aficionado knows, Em included — nothing stays buried forever. 

QUOTABLE LYRICS

Out the corner of his cornea, he just saw ya run
All you want is to rest ’cause you can’t run anymore, you’re done
All he wants is to kill you in front of an audience
While everybody is watching in the party, applauding it
Here I sit, while I’m caught up in deep thought again
Contemplating my next plot again
Swallowin’ a Klonopin while I’m noddin’ in and out on the ottoman
At the Ramada Inn, holding onto the pill bottle, then

PlayStation x Nike PG 5 “PS5” Gets New Release Date: Details

by

If you are a gamer, then you probably know just how difficult it’s been to try and secure a PlayStation 5. The console has been extremely hard to track down especially with such a high demand on the market. Sony has been unable to keep up with the demand in terms of manufacturing, and these days, gamers are getting frustrated. Luckily, sneakerheads are going to have the chance to get the next best thing, in the Nike PG 5 “PS5” collab which pays homage to Paul George’s love of gaming.

In the images provided below, you can see how the shoe has a mostly while upper although there are blue and black highlights throughout, which pretty well demonstrates how the PS5 aesthetics are being tied in. There are PlayStation logos here, as well as PG’s own insignia, which helps bring all of the branding and video game motifs together.

The shoe was originally going to come out on May 27th although now, it has been delayed until June 17th, where it will be released through the Nike SNKRS App. Let us know what you think of this new collaboration, in the comments below. Also, stay tuned to HNHH for more sneaker news.

Nicki Minaj Spikes Overall Crocs Demand By A Huge Percentage

by

We previously reported that after Nicki Minaj returned to social media wearing her bright pink Crocs with Chanel-inspired accessories, the Barbz rushed over to buy several pairs of their own, crashing the website and ultimately spiking sales by 4900% for pink clogs. New figures suggest that the Queen’s follow-up moves, which included her flaunting black and blue Crocs on the ‘Gram, have brought about a similar sales spike for Crocs, which means that Nicki is pretty much single-handedly bringing back everyone’s favorite ugly (yet insanely comfortable) shoes.

According to the latest statistics from The Sole Supplier, Nicki Minaj has caused a global spike in Crocs sales, speaking to her influence and power across the globe. As the Barbz continue spending their money on Crocs, the report notes that there has been an average 3000% increase in demand for the shoes. 

Having sported blue and black Crocs in her most recent photos and videos, Nicki has personally attributed to a 1330% sales spike for blue clogs and a 2400% surge for the black ones. She’s been accessorizing her kicks with tons of flashy Jibbitz too, with reports noting a 170% increase in popularity for those. 

At this point, it sure seems as though Nicki could become the next major ambassador for Crocs. She’s basically carrying the brand on her back as it is.

What do you think of these numbers? Pretty impressive, right?

Nike LeBron 8 Low “Sprite” Set To Return This Year: Details

by

LeBron James is one of the greatest basketball players of all-time and throughout his historic career, he has given fans some pretty incredible sneakers. One of those shoes is the Nike LeBron 8 which is in the midst of celebrating its tenth anniversary. The shoe was immensely popular during LeBron’s time in Miami and we got a whole bunch of great colorways during that era. Among those models was the Nike LeBron 8 Low, which eventually came out in a “Sprite” offering.

Now, it is being reported by Sneaker Files that the LeBron 8 Low “Sprite” is going to be making a comeback this year, much like various other LeBron 8 offerings. In the images below, you can see that the shoe is mostly covered in blue although the hints of yellowish-green help deliver a look that is undeniable Sprite-inspired. It’s one of those colorways that will flash on the court and we imagine there will be a lot of people wearing these this summer.

A release date has not yet been announced although it is believed these could be dropping sometime in June. Let us know what you think of this new model, in the comments below.

Please keep living in your truths & know I am sending so much love your way.”

Demi has been receiving a lot of support from their fans after making the announcement, trending on Twitter as supporters send messages thanking them for revealing their true selves to the world.

It takes a lot of courage to make such an announcement. Congratulations to Demi Lovato on coming out as non-binary.
