Rihanna’s Iconic Instagram Profile Picture Is Gone After A Decade And Fans Are Mourning The Tragic Loss

For years now, the most iconic part of Rihanna’s online identity has been her Instagram profile image. You know the one: It’s a simplistic and relatively crude illustration of an expressionless character with curly hair on its head. As Vulture notes, the image dates back to 2014, so it was there for Anti, it was there for the launch of Fenty Beauty, and it was there for the births of Rihanna and ASAP Rocky’s two children.

Now, we are at the dawn of a new era: Over this past weekend, Rihanna changed her Instagram profile image. Now, instead of the classic doodle that has graced her account for a decade, we have a photo of a Fenty product, being held by what looks like a stick-figure hand, perhaps belonging to the beloved illustration.

There is a degree of devastation among Rihanna’s fans over this change. One shared an “In Loving Memory” video that has racked up 2.8 million views, reading, “I was deeply saddened to hear of your loss. Please know that you have my heartfelt condolences. In this time of grief, may you find strength and solace in the embrace of family and friends who care deeply for you.”

Check out that and other reactions below.

Kanye West Receives Truly Bizarre Character Description From White Nationalist Nick Fuentes

Back in 2022, Kanye West found himself amongst white nationalists. People like Milo Yiannopoulos and Nick Fuentes were key figures of his anti-semitic musings. Overall, fans were not amused by these associations. Eventually, Milo became the Yeezy Chief of Staff, which still confuses some. Meanwhile, Fuentes is still on a high from his days hanging out with Ye. Whenever he has the opportunity, he will talk about Kanye and the vibes he got from him. For instance, on a live stream with Sneako, Fuentes spoke about Ye and the way he allegedly switches up how he acts amongst different people.

“He would have to kind of tone up the Blackness when he was with other Black people. I noticed this,” he said. “When he was with the Black people, he would kind of tone up how Black he was acting. When he knew he was safe, when he knew it was a judgement-free zone and he could be himself, that’s when he realized his mom was a professor. And he didn’t come from Chicago, he came from Hyde Park. Big difference.”

Fuentes is speaking with extreme prejudice when he says this kind of stuff. After all, he has been adamant about his white nationalist positions. Furthermore, he even went so far as to say that deep down, Ye is a white autistic person. It’s all very bizarre and a great indication that Ye should have never gotten himself involved with the likes of Fuentes and his ilk. “He came from the campus of University of Chicago,” Fuentes continued. “He liked art, he liked poetry. You know, he’s like a white autist in many ways. He’s got the soul of a white autist. That’s what fuels his genius; not playing into this gang banger, ‘I fucked your bitch’ whatever.”

Let us know what you think of Nick Fuentes and his comments, down below. What did you make of Kanye aligning himself with these kinds of people back in 2022? Do you believe that this was the biggest misstep of Ye and his entire career? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Suge Knight Says Drake’s Use Of A.I. 2Pac Is A “Bad Look,” Calls Out Snoop Dogg For Late Rapper’s “Downfall”

Suge Knight criticized Drake’s use of A.I. to create a verse from the likeness of 2Pac and Snoop Dogg on his latest Kendrick Lamar diss, “Taylor Made Freestyle.” Not only did he think using ‘Pac as a “pawn” was lame, but he also blamed Snoop Dogg for the late rapper’s demise and said putting them on a song together is a “bad look.” Knight discussed the track during the latest episode of his Collect Call podcast.

“Young people do what young people do. It’s y’all turn, but regarding the homie ‘Pac, he wasn’t no chump,” he said. “Putting him on a song and dissing Kendrick [Lamar] for everybody entertainment — that ain’t how it go. Then putting him on a song with Snoop, who was a part of his downfall and exit, ain’t ever a good look. ‘Pac was a king on that chessboard. He never was a pawn, so he can’t make him be a pawn now.”

Snoop Dogg also reacted to the track, sharing a video of himself on Instagram seemingly confused by the drama. “They did what? When? How? Are you sure? [Sigh] Y’all have a good night,” he said after the song dropped. “Why everybody calling my phone, blowing me up? What the f*ck— what happened? What’s going on? I’m going back to bed. Good night.” Additionally, 2Pac’s brother, Mopreme Shakur, told TMZ he wasn’t a fan of how Drake weaponized the late rapper for a beef.

With Donald Glover devoting much of his energy to acting in recent years, the future of his music as Childish Gambino has remained uncertain. There has been some clarity lately, though: Earlier this month, Glover broke down his plan for his final two albums as Childish Gambino. Now he has shared even more about what his upcoming Gambino goings-on will entail.

During a recent GILGA Radio broadcast, an advertisement-style announcement said, “Childish Gambino New World Tour this summer. Coming to an arena near you. Are you ready?” Glover later shared an Instagram post about it, featuring a simple graphic for The New World Tour and a link to a website, thenewworldtour.com. There, there’s an email sign-up form to be updated with more information when it becomes available.

So, to summarize: What we know about the tour right now is that it’s called The New World Tour, it will take place in arenas, and it’s set to kick off this summer. Dates and information about tickets have yet to be revealed.

Elsewhere during that same broadcast, Glover teased two new songs, one featuring Kanye West and the other featuring Kid Cudi. As NME notes, the Kudi collab is called “Warlords” and previously leaked in 2021.
