Drake Hilariously Roasts The Clippers After Being Called A “Fan”

by

Drake is someone who can typically be found sitting courtside at Raptors games. He is the ambassador of the franchise and he was there for their massive championship win back in 2019. Overall, he loves the Raptors with all his heart and he will always have that adoration for them.

This season, the Raptors have had it rough. They started decently but at this point, some feel like they should just tank. Although they were great three years ago, many of their best players are gone. For some, it might just be time to tank for Victor Wembanyama.

Drake & The Clippers

Last night, Drake was courtside for his team’s loss against the Los Angeles Clippers. Of course, that Clippers team has a couple of players who were on the Raptors championship roster. Those two players are none other than Kawhi Leonard and Norman Powell.

Following the game, Drake and Powell shared a hug and some kind words. Subsequently, the Clippers posted about it on their Instagram page with the caption “Kawhi and Norm with a fan.” Never the one to let a joke pass him by, Drake hit back at the Clippers, saying “win a ring.”

If you are the Clippers, that diss is going to have to sting. In the entire history of the franchise, they have yet to win an NBA title. This is especially bad since the Raptors are a young franchise and were still able to win before them. However, if anyone has a better chance of winning a title right now, it would have to be the Los Angeles Clippers.

Drake is a funny guy, and you have to applaud the quick retort toward the Clippers. Unfortunately, the social media strategist is the one who will have to deal with the consequences.

ABC Is Facing Harsh Backlash After Mistakenly Paying Tribute To Late Migos Member Takeoff With A Photo Of Quavo

While recapping the events of the past year last night (December 28), producers of ABC’s The Year: 2022 made a rather embarrassing mistake. When honoring rapper Takeoff during the program’s In Memorium portion, a picture of his Migos bandmate, Quavo, was shown. As one could expect, fans were not thrilled about the mix-up.

“So I’m watching #TheYear on @abc and was caught off guard by the disrespect and ignorance of the programming,” said one Twitter user. “All black people don’t look the same and y’all got this one wrong, the person is the picture is clearly, clearly [Quavo], do better.”

Another Twitter user said the mistake shouldn’t have occurred, given that Quavo had a long, prolific run of notable guest verses a few years ago, and should therefore be easily recognizable.

“This sh*t lame as hell,” they said. “This man Quavo was the face of popular music 3-4 years straight. Ain’t no way y’all confused this man for Takeoff.”

After several fans voiced their chagrin about the mistake, ABC corrected the video and has since issued a statement on social media.

“We apologize for the unfortunate error in a previous version of ‘The Year: 2022,’” said ABC News Studios in a tweet. “It has been corrected.”

Drake’s Early-Career Lyric Book Is Now Up For Auction With A Lofty Asking Price

This year has been yet another momentous one for rap superstar Drake. Despite a few distasteful rap bars aimed at Megan Thee Stallion, the rehashing of an old beef with singer DRAM, and a lawsuit from Vogue magazine, the certified lover boy has had a great year. His latest collaborative album, Her Loss, with 21 Savage, earned one billion streams, and he surpassed Eminem to become the highest-selling artist in terms of singles.

However, there’s still one element of his craft, at least in the public’s eye, he perhaps hasn’t mastered — songwriting. Drake has praised other recording artists like SZA for her songwriting abilities and even spoke about the writing process with 21 Savage on their album. Still, since Meek Mill alleged recording artist Quentin Miller wrote all of Drake’s raps, it has stained his work in many people’s eyes. TMZ is stepping in to show that the Toronto native has always been a songwriter at heart.

The outlet got its hands on a few images of Drake’s early lyric books, which are now up for auction thanks to the charity, Moments In Time. Fans of the entertainer can purchase the item starting at $20,000.

Retrieved from the dumpster of Drake’s uncle’s Memphis furniture factory, the lucky purchaser will own several pages of handwritten lyrics from Drake. One of the pages revealed the lyrics to a song called “Come Spring,” which would later become “Come Winter” off his debut mixtape Room For Improvement.

Now that Drake and Meek Mill have reunited and with this lyric book sale, we wonder if the rumor of Drake not writing his own music will die off.

LeBron James Is Having Fun After His Latest Win

by

LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers have had their fair share of struggles this year. This is a team that came into their game against the Orlando Magic with a record of 13-20. It is a record that put them 13th in the Western Conference, which is just abysmal.

However, things somewhat got back on track last night as LeBron led the team to a solid 129-110 victory. The Magic boast some phenomenal young talents, although LeBron was too much to handle as he gave the Magic a 28-point performance.

LeBron James Is Loving It

Despite the losses this year, LeBron has been able to maintain a positive attitude. You can tell that he still loves the game of basketball and with his 38th birthday in just a couple of days, he will not be slowing down, anytime soon. In fact, he is closer than ever to getting that all-time scoring title.

After winning against the Magic, LeBron took to his Instagram page where he offered up some clips of the game. Overall, LeBron seemed to be relieved that his team got back into the win column. He captioned the clip with “that was fun tonight” which just goes to show that he still loves the game, despite the rough season.

Heading into the new year, the Lakers are going to need to put up some big numbers. A win streak is most certainly needed, however, without Anthony Davis, it is going to be hard. Regardless, LeBron James will at least be able to run up his numbers which will get him that much closer to Kareem’s long-standing record.

Let us know what you thought of James’ performance last night, in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from the sports world.

“If he did have anything to do with that sh**, it shouldn’t have been no beef whatsoever after the shit happened. If there was any guilt on his side, he should’ve kissed Meg’s a**.

The “Thug” rapper also poked fun at Tory’s height. He suggested that Lanez only pulled a gun on Megan because he’s shorter than her. “No way in life will I ever pull out a gun for a situation with a woman.” Slim Thug has been vocal about his affinity for Megan Thee Stallion since she hit the scene back in 2019. He was frequently seen in the Traumazine rapper’s comment section under several of her thirst trap photos. 

Thug decided it was time to shoot his shot at the Megan under a clip of her rocking Savage X Fenty lingerie. “Wear it for me,” he wrote. “Let me be yo video ho.” Slim Thug’s comments come on heels of Tory Lanez being found guilty in his trial against Megan Thee Stallion. The Canadian rapper was charged with assault with a semi-automatic firearm, carrying a loaded and discharging a firearm with gross negligence.

“I like true crime, period, the entire genre,” 50 Cent told the outlet. “If you don’t read the news, if you’re not in the current events, [then you should]. I do.”

The series focuses on Pedro and Margarito Flores and how they became the government informants who brought down El Chapo.

50’s co-host, Charlie Webster, also discussed the process of making the podcast with PEOPLE. Webster says the two would speak with the twins in a discreet “safe house” with security posted outside.

“We did speak to them separately, but to get them in this house, we thought it was so important to really show who they are by them being together,” he said.

Webster continued: “We also wanted to tell the reality of what so many young kids get brought up in and how it can turn out.”

“This is just the first one for me and Charlie,” 50 added. “You’re going to see more.”

As for music, 50 says that he’s got “new music ideas,” but has no plans on releasing anything as of now.

“I mean, I really enjoy the music,” Jackson says, “But the audience is changing. My core audience was in college in 2003. They’re grown now and they may have the drink that you would have in the nightclub in the privacy of their home now. They are my television viewership now. That’s who’s watching.”

50 Cent released his last album, Animal Ambition, back in 2014.

by

Gervonta Davis is going to be fighting against Ryan Garcia later this year in what should be a huge fight. Firstly, he must take care of business on January 7th against Hector Luis Garcia. This is a match he is expected to win, however, this fight could now be in jeopardy.

According to TMZ, Davis was arrested for domestic violence last night, and as of right now, he is still in prison. Overall, he was hit with a battery domestic violence charge. This is certainly not good, and fans are now curious as to what this means for his future.

Gervonta Davis Updates

At the time of writing this, the allegations that led to Davis’ arrest have not been made public. However, it is known that Davis was arrested in Florida and is currently in Broward County. He ended up getting his mugshot taken, but very little else is known at this point.

For now, he is expected to post bail, although it has yet to happen just yet. It is an unfortunate situation all around, especially since Davis has been arrested for domestic violence before. In 2020, Davis was arrested after punching his ex-girlfriend while attending a sporting event.

Joycelyn Savage’s Father Denies R.Kelly Baby Rumors 

by

Joycelyn Savage’s dad is coming forth after rumors surfaced that his daughter gave birth to R. Kelly’s child. Timothy Savage slammed an Instagram account claiming to be his 26-year old daughter, announcing that she welcomed daughter “Ava Lee Kelly 12.08.22.”

The alleged faux account shared a second post pretending to be Joycelyn. “My baby girl Ava when you were born and my whole world shined so bright. I knew that it was no longer about me anymore it was about us . Though the world is cold , I promise to always protect you . I am so happy to be your mother & you bring me so much joy.”

However, Timothy says the page is fraudulent and that his daughter has not welcomed a child with the incarcerated singer. “My daughter Joycelyn is not pregnant,” he shared on Instagram Live. “This is 100% accurate. Rest assured. I am investigating this to the fullest and other people are too.” Savage’s video didn’t end there. He went on to call out the folks responsible for posting the unknown baby in the IG photo. “The little baby on the account is a pretty little baby. If I had a granddaughter, I would be the first to say I love this child, no matter what the situation is. These people are evil, cruel people. To take a horrible situation and try to make some profit off of it.”

“My daughter has been hidden away from everyone, due to the circumstances. And it’s not right.  If it was the case that my daughter had a child, [she] would come forth and be happy about it. But as we both know, my daughter has not responded. I have messaged that [Instagram] to see if that was my daughter. It has not responded in the proper way.” 

Fans quickly slammed the seemingly concerned father, accusing him of reading from a script and not being genuine. Check out Timothy’s full video and share your thoughts below.
