Last week, Jess Hilarious finally confirmed that she’ll be a permanent host of The Breakfast Club. The exciting announcement followed plenty of speculation, and even rumors that she would be off of the radio show for good. To celebrate, the comedian shared a dramatic video of her sitting on a throne between her co-hosts, DJ Envy and Charlamagne Tha God.
Amid the announcement, Jess Hilarious has been met with congratulations and praise from countless fans and peers. Her predecessor Angela Yee even gave her a shoutout on Way Up recently, noting that it’s not an easy gig. “Today I think that we should shine a light on Jess Hilarious for joining The Breakfast Club,” she said. “Congratulations to her, I know it’s not an easy job.” Now, yet another powerful woman has provided her with a co-sign, Kamala Harris.
“Jess Hilarious, it’s Kamala Harris,” she begins in a new clip, shared by Charlamagne Tha God on Instagram earlier today. “Congratulations on joining The Breakfast Club, I know you’re gonna be great. Your voice is so important. Have fun with Charlamagne and DJ Envy and thank you all for being just such an important voice for so many reasons.” As expected, the message has viewers split. Either way, it’s an exciting and unexpected endorsement. “The Most Powerful Woman In The World Will Be Listening to @breakfastclubam Per Usual. Thank You Madam VP. Tomorrow Morning the @jesshilarious_official era begins,” Charlamagne Tha God captioned the clip.
Jess went on to share the clip on her own page, writing, “Thank you Ms. Vice President @kamalaharris I will not disappoint… oh I’m coming with it for sure.” What do you think of Jess Hilarious becoming a permanent host of The Breakfast Club? How about Kamala Harris congratulating her? What about her reaction? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.
February isn’t getting any hotter for the northern hemisphere, but that doesn’t mean that the soul is getting colder. Moreover, we rounded up the very best of the best new music of the week on our new R&B Season playlist update in this genre’s field. While sometimes that genre barrier can become a little blurry, this next collaboration and artist falls firmly in that camp. Of course, we’re talking about “The King Of R&B,” Usher, and his newest team-up with Pheelz, their single “Ruin.” However, while the vocals definitely fit within that style, the Afrobeat-inspired beat makes for a uniquely breezy take that shows off a lot of vocal strength.
Next up on our R&B Season playlist update is the new Zacari song, “Ocean,” which is a another smooth and pleasant jam. Of course, the vocalist does very well switching between lower tones and high-pitched falsettos, which gives some nice dynamism to the guitar-led beat. Also, additional production elements such as flanging, atmospheric synth pads, and more add to the emotive punch of the song and make it stand out from a typical ballad. Overall, it’s an easy add to a driving playlist or for more chill vibes.
Speaking of atmosphere, we’d be remiss not to shout out SAFE’s new song, “Same Night,” on this week’s R&B Season playlist update. It’s another romantic cut that finds strength in its warbled samples and slow, reverb-drenched drum beat with sharp snares and crisp hi-hats. Not only that, but his vocals never overwhelm the instrumentation and vice versa, and it’s a very nice balance between tense swells and melancholy valleys. Even though it’s not the most eventful track here, it’s exactly the kind of mood-setting that much of this genre champions so well.
Finally, we wanted to give a nod to Daniel Caesar’s soft and patient cover of “Waiting In Vain” by Bob Marley, off of One Love – Music Inspired By The Film. This reimagining is definitely more sultry and less joyful than its original, but its strong sentiment and narrative core still holds on tight. Let us know in the comments what your favorite release on our R&B Season playlist update was this week -– and what else we missed, too. Check out the playlist above and, as always, log back into HNHH for more great music drops around the clock.
50 Cent has declared his loyalty to ex-president Donald Trump, calling him “the answer” while slamming New York City Mayor Eric Adams for his policies.
The 66th Annual Grammy Awards have arrived, and a lot of artists have a lot on the line this year. SZA racked up nine nominations to lead all artists, while Phoebe Bridgers and Victoria Monét are tied for second with seven nods apiece. After them, all with six nominations each, are Miley Cyrus, Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo, Brandy Clark, Jon Batiste, and Jack Antonoff.
If you’re wondering why a certain artist isn’t nominated, one thing to remember is that to be eligible for this year’s awards, a work must have been released between October 1, 2022 and September 15, 2023. (Or, maybe they were eligible but just got snubbed. Sorry!)

Antonio Brown has crowned infamous Instagram star Celina Powell CTESPN‘s “Cracker of the Month” after she got a tattoo of the wide receiver’s face on her cheek. Powell is of course best known for her wild IG antics, alleged relationships with a host of hip-hop stars, and recently spent significant time in prison for a 2022 parole violation.
Fans online were quick to roast Powell alongside Brown. “if you get a tattoo on your face you have instantly lowered your rating out of ten by 6 points. She just went from a 4 to a -2. amen,” one X user wrote. Many people also pointed Powell’s pornographic history. This included an appearance on Plug Talk, the sexually-loaded podcast from Adam22 and Lena The Plug. However, some people also went after Brown, suggesting he had targeted Powell because she would haven’t sex with him.
Meanwhile, Brown continued his streak of general weirdness with an appearance on the popular YouTube show 20 Girls Versus… During a conversation with one of the contestants, Brown asked her if she could “suck a golf ball through a coffee straw”. The girl was thoroughly confused, as was the show’s host. What Brown meant to say was “can you suck a gof ball through a water hose”, a line from the film Full Metal Jacket.
It’s bit the first time that Brown has gotten weird about romance. Last year, Brown asked people not to “spin his words” after namedropping Keke Palmer in a series of raunchy tweets. “These all are rap lyrics. Please do not spin my words. Spin your money . Ima Rappa,” Brown wrote a few hours after a collection of tweets went viral. The posts in question referred to running a woman “like the Olympics”, referring to the colloquial group sex of “running a train”. The one that got people in arms concerning Palmer read “I don’t drink Arnold PALMERS I sip Keke Palmer Ya dig”.
Kanye West and Westside Gunn continued highlighting their respect for one another recently, and commemorated the occasion with some new snaps. Moreover, they both went to the grand opening of 424’s Melrose Place store with Guillermo Andrade on Friday (February 2) in Los Angeles. “SUPER HEROES,” the Griselda MC captioned an Instagram post featuring some pictures and a fit check video of the occasion. Speaking of fit checks, the Chicago artist chose to don his new white Jason mask to complement his all-black outfit, and it makes for quite the intimidating presence. Of course, if you’ve been attentive at all when it comes to Ye news these days, you recognize this garb.
This new Jason mask is exactly what Kanye West wore to Travis Scott’s Orlando concert, where he performed for his CIRCUS MAXIMUS tour. Fans obviously went wild for him when he appeared, despite how fans already had put the pieces together before the show started. While it’s very energizing, it’s also hard to look at through a screen without thinking of all the 46-year-old’s current public controversies. Yet that’s always been a point of compromise and conflictive feelings when it comes to him.
Not only that, but peers like Westside Gunn’s continuous support probably urges him to continue and move past these inflammatory incidents. For better or worse, a lot of people are telling Kanye West to keep going, and both his fans and Flygod’s would love if the “Keep My Spirit Alive” spitter hop on wax together again. In fact, maybe the Yeezy mogul puts Gunn on a Vultures volume last-minute, and we know very few people would complain. Here’s hoping that Ye atones for what he’s done and we can enjoy his artistry more purely.
As for the Buffalo native, he has an unreleased collab with A$AP Rocky that the Mob’s frontman played during a recent orchestral performance. As such, And Then You Pray For Me might be his last album, but he’s not going anywhere. Who knows what these two will cook up next? To find out, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and more updates on Kanye West and Westside Gunn.

Ciara’s now able to go outside more following the birth of her third child with Russell Wilson, Amora, back in December of last year. However, that doesn’t mean that it’s any easier to take care of the newborn, or that the couple doesn’t have to think of their kids in every waking moment. Fortunately, though, they’ve found fun ways to show love to their family and take care of them before going on their duo adventures. Moreover, the R&B singer recently posted a video on Instagram of the two dancing to the rhythm of how the football player rocked Amora to sleep, which was just so wholesome to see.
Furthermore, this adds to the adorable content that the couple has been keeping admirers up to speed with on social media. Even though it’s a parasocial relationship at the end of the day, this is exactly what a lot of people want to brighten their days. Russell Wilson and Ciara are one of the most admired couples on the Internet, and they are individually bright stars in their own right. If nothing else, it’s at least something that music fans and sports fans can bond over that doesn’t involve an argument about Taylor Swift on NFL broadcasts.
However, it hasn’t all been peaches and cream in The Evolution hitmaker’s life in particular as of late, although most folks aware of this are on her side. Stunna Girl recently blasted her after her song “Stand Up,” which uses an unauthorized sample of Ciara’s “Goodies,” was taken down from YouTube. Of course, a lot of fans understand that, if someone doesn’t clear a sample, it’s in their right to take according action. Still, it opened up an interesting conversation around alleged double standards in sampling and the proper way to handle situations like these.
Meanwhile, we’re sure that the 38-year-old will keep stunning with her post-pregnancy glow, and that she’ll find a good balance between parenthood and free time. After all, as a superstar, that balance is key to staying grounded and responsible in both aspects. Whatever happens, and whatever they decide to share, we’re here for it. With that in mind, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Ciara and Russell Wilson.
