Adam22 Takes Victory Lap After Drake Confirms His Previous Comments With NSFW Video Leak
Adam22 is someone who comments on hip-hop every single day. However, sometimes, his comments go viral because of how outrageous they are. Overall, not everyone is a fan of the commenter and his antics. That said, he is now being praised for the prophecy he foretold months ago. Previously, Adam claimed that Drake had large private parts. At the time, this was a statement that raised quite a few eyebrows. Now, he appears to be proven correct after a video of Drake began surfacing early this morning.
In the NSFW video, Drizzy can be seen sexting someone. It is unclear how this video got leaked and who even possessed it to begin with. Following the leak, Drake seemingly confirmed that it was him in the video, to Adin Ross. Subsequently, Adam22 has decided to weigh in now that people are going back to his previous words. “I will never lead you astray,” Adam wrote alongside a screenshot from a HipHopDX article. Needless to say, Adam is feeling pretty good about his inside sources. Anybody would take a victory lap in this situation.

Adam22 Is Feeling Good
For now, it remains to be seen whether or not Drake will come out with a statement on what went down. After all, this is an embarrassing situation to have to go through. Not to mention, it is a huge invasion of privacy that would certainly make anyone weary about making another such video in the future. The one silver lining is that no one is making fun of Drake here. Instead, most people are speaking in reverence and respect. Ultimately, that is pretty rare in these situations. No matter what, this is a unique situation that has gone extremely viral. It’s been a while since a story shocked the timeline like this one.
Let us know what you think about all of this, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will continue to keep you informed on all of your favorite artists and their upcoming releases. 2024 is poised to be a great year.

Keefe D’s Nephew Confessed To 2Pac Killing, Former Cop Alleges
Keefe D’s nephew, Orlando Anderson, allegedly bragged about the killing of 2Pac just days afterward, according to retired Compton Gang Unit Officer Robert Ladd. Ladd explained to VladTV that multiple informants claimed Anderson boasted about the murder.
“Within the next few days [of the shooting], we started getting calls from informants,” he said. “And our first ones were saying, ‘Hey it’s Keefe [and] Orlando was the shooter.’ They’re telling us that Bubble Up and Big Dre were in the car. This is days after. This is informants telling us. And it’s just not us; other people had informants too. [Former Compton Police chief] Reggie Sr., this guy in charge of the narcotics unit, Bobby Baker — they were also getting calls with the same information.”

Keefe D Appears In Court For 2Pac Killing
He continued: “So it wasn’t just us getting information about this. We were told that Orlando came back and started to brag about it — not Keefe D, not Big Dre, not Bubble Up. It was just Orlando. Everyone’s telling us, ‘Orlando’s coming back, he’s bragging about killing them.’ You know, rightfully so, probably. But this is within his own gang. So then the word spread and people start calling us.” Check out Ladd’s full comments on the investigation below.
Robert Ladd Discusses 2Pac Murder Case
While Anderson was shot and killed in an unrelated gang shootout in 1998, Keefe D was arrested and charged in connection with the murder, last September. His trial will begin on June 3. Be on the lookout for further updates on Keefe D on HotNewHipHop.

Killer Mike Reveals Son’s Kidney Transplant Went Smoothly: Report
Killer Mike’s son, Mikael “Pony Boy” Render, has just undergone a successful kidney transplant after waiting three long years to find one. This update comes courtesy of TMZ and numerous other sources. This all went down hours after Mike’s successful outing at the 66th GRAMMY Awards. He would take three of the four rap categories for his first solo album in over a decade with MICHAEL. If Killer Mike’s son being rushed to the hospital for the procedure was not enough, he was also arrested on the premises of the award show.
He physically got into it with security at the Crypto.com Arena and he recently released a statement that things got a little out of hand. But, he thinks everything should be fine on that end. While that is a bit of an uncertainty, Killer Mike’s son’s health is for sure on the up and up. Mike told TMZ that “Pony” “did really well.” He says Pony will be in recovery for a few hours before he’s moved back to his hospital room, but they’re already seeing some positive signs — Mike says it “looks like the kidney is already working.”

Additionally, Mike revealed that his 21-year-old boy will be in recovery for a few hours. However, the doctors are seeing tremendous progress. The Atlanta rapper says that it “looks like the kidney is already working.” While Killer Mike did say he was “elated” when they found a match, we can only imagine the stress. We wish his son a speedy recovery going forward.
What are your thoughts on Killer Mike’s son and his kidney transplant going well? Is this a sign that things will clear up for the Grammy-winning rapper? Are you still shocked he was arrested at the award show? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this.

Lisa Ann Responds To Matt Rife Show Arrest With Photographic Evidence That She Is Innocent
Lisa Ann is a former adult film star who has remained extremely famous since her retirement. Overall, she is a name that carried a lot of weight back in the day, so she still has a fanbase. Moreover, she hosts podcasts and even has some skin in the game when it comes to sports gambling. Needless to say, she continues to do quite well for herself. However, she did find herself at the center of controversy the other day as she ended up getting arrested while attending a Matt Rife comedy show.
The show was at Radio City in New York, and Rife had made it so no one was allowed to film him. Security claims that Lisa Ann had her phone out which subsequently led to her getting escorted out and detained by the NYPD. The actress posted a video of the arrest on social media and proclaimed her innocence. Now, she is following that up with a photo of herself in the crowd at the event. In the post, she makes the claim that she was not the one holding the phone.

“In this photo, I am seated facing the stage with my arm over my chair watching the show. The person on the phone was not me,” she wrote. Furthermore, Lisa Ann issued a statement where she thanked fans for their support. She also expressed empathy for security workers and their role at events. However, she did note that the arrest left her “bruised both physically and emotionally.” It was clearly a traumatic moment for her, and we hope she is doing okay.
Let us know what you think of this situation, in the comments section down below. What are your thoughts on no phone policies at shows? Do they make sense in today’s day and age?

D.A. In Young Thug & Donald Trump Case Allegedly Had An Affair With Prosecutor
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who is prosecuting Young Thug, is facing another call for her to be removed from Georgia’s election interference case against former President Donald Trump. The demands stem from allegations she had an affair with Nathan Wade, a special prosecutor she hired in the case. Willis and Wade have admitted to having had a romantic relationship but deny it caused a conflict of interest.
In a new filing, lawyers for former state GOP chair and Trump co-defendant David Shafer brought up a speech she made in January referencing Wade. Willis noted that Wade, who is Black, is the only one of her special prosecutors facing backlash, while the other two on the case are white. “The obvious intent of her remarks was to inject and infect the jury pool in Fulton County with unfounded allegations that anyone who dares question her or Mr. Wade’s conduct must have done so for racist purposes,” the motion argues. “These comments constitute prosecutorial, forensic misconduct and warrant her removal and that of her office from the prosecution of this case.”

Willis previously admitted to the “personal relationship” with Wade in an affidavit but claimed it began in 2022, after his appointment in the case. Her office said she “has no financial conflict of interest that constitutes a legal basis for disqualification,” and “has no personal conflict of interest that justifies her disqualification personally or that of the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office.”
