Kevin Durant is easily one of the best players in the NBA right now and he has been having himself an incredible comeback season. While he may have been injured for a solid month, he is finally back in the lineup and he is already making the Nets look like the championship team we all knew they could be.
Considering the team’s big three hasn’t been able to play a lot of games together, there have been concerns that the Nets wouldn’t have a lot of chemistry. While in an IG chat with Bansky, Durant spoke about these chemistry questions, noting that everyone on the team is extremely talented and smart when it comes to basketball, which makes the process that much easier.
“When you’ve got high IQ players it’s not hard to figure s—t out,” Durant said. KD isn’t kidding as Kyrie Irving and James Harden are all guys who make their teams better. Now that they get to play with each other, the Nets are looking unstoppable, and even when one of them is out of the lineup, the squad still gets things done.
Once Harden returns from his injury, the Nets will be at full strength and the entire league will have to deal with a juggernaut.
Hip-hop legend DMX put the Ruff Ryders on the map. The management company turned record label was one of the biggest brands in the music industry during the late-1990s and early-2000s, and DMX was the dog at the head of the pack. Upon the news of Earl Simmons’ death on Thursday, his former labelmates went […]

Hip-hop stands united in their appreciation for the late DMX, who passed away earlier today at the age of 50. The sheer volume of tributes from his friends and collaborators speaks to the impact of his legacy, not only as an artist but as a man. A highly spiritual lyricist unafraid to honestly assess the complexities of life, the work of Earl Simmons will forever stand the test of time.
Look no further than the voices of his fellow artists, many of whom took to social media to pay respects. For some of them, DMX was a collaborator, a constant threat on wax to those with a competitive mindset. For others, he was a formative influence, the mind behind brilliant albums like It’s Dark And Hell Is Hot, Flesh Of My Flesh, Blood Of My Blood, …And Then There Was X, The Great Depression, and Grand Champ.
On the day of his death, many in the hip-hop community have come forward to pay homage to DMX’s memory. In his honor, a collection has been assembled below. Included are many kind messages, images, and tributes penned by dozens of rappers, several of whom had the chance of working directly with X during his lifetime. We at HNHH would like to offer our sincere condolences to DMX’s family in this difficult time, and echo the sentiment that is so strongly being reinforced by rap fans everywhere: DMX is forever.

Today has been a very difficult day for many throughout the hip-hop community as rap legend DMX has passed away at the age of 50. Last Friday, it was reported that DMX suffered an overdose which triggered a heart attack. While the paramedics were able to revive him, he ended up sustaining brain damage, and this morning, he suffered organ failure. Not long after this report surfaced, DMX’s family put out a statement saying that he had passed on.
Since that time, many throughout the hip-hop world have sent their condolences to the star who was able to touch a whole generation of rap fans. His music will forever be iconic and there is no doubt that his fans will be blasting some of his greatest works today.
Now, the sports world is also offering their prayers for X, who was heavily influential on a lot of the world’s best athletes. When the news broke, LeBron James shared his condolences, saying “X 4L!! Rest In Paradise LEGEND!!” Stephen Jackson also shared an image of one of his tattoos, saying how DMX inspired him to get it. “[DMX] inspired me to get this tat 17 yrs ago. Words that stuck with me. Rest Easy Big Dog. Gone but never forgotten. Prayers and condolences to DMX and his family,” he said.
Trae Young, Adrian Peterson, Torrey Smith, and Miles Bridges were among various other athletes who paid homage to X. It’s clear he inspired millions of people, and he will never be forgotten.
Rest In Peace X.
Back in November, Jake Paul went out and absolutely destroyed former NBA player Nate Robinson in a boxing match. The fight was the precursor to Mike Tyson’s big comeback and in many ways, Paul was able to upstage Tyson with his dominant victory. Since that time, Robinson’s loss has become a huge meme all over the internet and Triller has been hoping for the hype of that fight to be continued with Paul’s next battle against Ben Askren.
In fact, Triller is now capitalizing on the NFT space as they have turned Paul’s knockout into an NFT that is being auctioned for $10 million, according to TMZ. This NFT will also come with the final 30 seconds of the Paul vs. Askren fight which could prove to be a massive win for whoever is able to cop this new NFT.
Over the last couple of months, NFTs have absolutely dominated the cryptocurrency space although, in many respects, the hype seems to be manufactured. Realistically, anyone can go on YouTube and download the Robinson knockout for free. Meanwhile, some are willing to pay eight figures just to own a glorified MP4 file. Perhaps the most revolutionary part of NFTs isn’t the tech behind it, but the fact that you can make money off of them.
Either way, we’re sure some rich tech-bro out there will shell out the money for this, much to the delight of Triller.

Over these past couple of years, the Nike SB Dunk Low and High have been receiving a ton of great new colorways. This is primarily because the shoe has undergone a massive resurrection after a few years of low popularity. Celebrities continue to wear SBs and now, the younger generation is being exposed to one of the most classic lines in Nike’s storied past. With the Spring in full swing and the summer almost here, Nike is taking the opportunity to get colorful with an all-new “Hawaii” offering.
As you can see in the images below, the shoe has two shades of blue that are swirled throughout. From there, we have some extremely nice pink flowers that are placed along the silhouette, leading to a classic aesthetic that will make you think of GTA Vice City, and of course, the great State of Hawaii. The laces and Nike swoosh are beige which leads to a nice final piece of contrast.
In terms of the release date, these will be coming out on April 9th for $120 USD. Let us know what you think of this new model, in the comments below.

Deshaun Watson is currently in the midst of facing numerous allegations and lawsuits that claim he was frequently sexually assaulting massage therapists. One woman named Ashley Solis came forward and shared her story with the public. Since then, Watson’s attorney filed a motion with the judge to force all of the other women to also identify themselves. According to Pro Football Talk, the judge has actually taken Watson’s side, and now, they are asking that the women reveal themselves.
Attorney Tony Buzbee is vehemently against this as he noted that Solis has received numerous death threats since coming forward. In fact, another woman who shares the same name as Solis has also been receiving these threats in a case of mistaken identity. With this in mind, Buzbee wants the women to remain anonymous so they can avoid such harrassment.
While this is a small legal win for Watson, he is still facing some extremely serious allegations and as a result, he has lost numerous endorsement deals. This is a story that continues to develop every single day, and it could be months until all of this is resolved.
In the meantime, stay tuned to HNHH as we will be sure to always keep you informed.
