It's The Boombap

In December of 2023, HoneyKomb Brazy and two associates were pulled over by police in Alabama, and soon after charged with possession of a firearm. Reportedly, upon searching the vehicle, officers found a Girson MC28 SA 9mm pistol and a Smith and Wesson MP 15 AR pistol. One of the rapper's associates, bodyguard Miguel Hall, pleaded guilty to the federal gun charge in May of this year. At the time, Brazy appeared ready to go to trial to fight the case.

Now, according to new legal documents obtained by XXL, HoneyKomb Brazy has pleaded guilty as well. Reportedly, this is part of a plea deal that also saw both the defense and prosecutors recommend a sentence of between two-and-a-half and three-and-a-half years behind bars. He's scheduled to appear in court on October 25, where Judge Kristi DuBose will hand him his sentence.

HoneyKomb Brazy Pleads Guilty To Gun Charge

As for Hall, he's scheduled to learn his fate in September. He could be facing up to 15 years in prison. Reportedly, he was previously prohibited from owning a firearm due to a past protection from abuse order. Aside from a hefty prison sentence, Hall could also be looking at a $250K fine and three years of supervised release. Per his plea deal, the prosecution will not bring any additional charges against him and will recommend a shorter sentence.

The news comes after it was revealed last January that authorities had been monitoring Brazy on social media. This was due to the fact that he was a "subject of multiple investigations for years." Reportedly, Special Agent Evan Fisher found out where Brazy was the night of his arrest based on his posts, though he didn't specify why he was a person of interest.

Fans are criticizing French Montana for getting close to Donald Trump's daughter-in-law, Lara Trump. Lara is married to Trump's son Eric and, like the rest of the Trump family, has been criticized for her views. One issue the Trump family feels particularly strongly about is immigration. Montana is Moroccan from a Muslim household, immigrating to the United States with his family when he was 13. He was not a full US citizen until 2018, at the age of 34.

French Montana took to Instagram to post a photo and a video of him and Lara Trump in the studio together. Trump is also the co-chair of the Republican National Committee. She delivered a speech at the Republican National Convention earlier this month, giving an unsurprising endorsement of her father-in-law's reelection campaign. Fans criticized Montana for the move, believing it directly contradicts his own history as an immigrant. "Project 2025 literally says they want to ban Muslims and send all the immigrants back to their homeland, so good luck with that," said one of the top replies to Montana's post. At the beginning of Donald Trump's presidency, he signed an executive order banning travel from six primarily Muslim countries. Project 2025, the conservative "to-do list" in the event of a second Trump term, outlines further plans to restrict their rights in the United States.

French Montana Criticized For Becoming Friends With Lara Trump

French Montana is far from the only rapper to show support for Donald Trump. Kodak Black recently reiterated his views, which he first publicized after Trump pardoned him in 2021. Benny The Butcher confirmed his stance earlier this year, even saying he had an opportunity to meet Trump. He declined the offer. Sexyy Red said she wanted Trump back in office on a podcast appearance in October 2023, a stance she has held ever since. She performed with a giant "Make America Sexyy Again" hat on stage at Rolling Loud California earlier this year.

French Montana's latest move comes shortly after he associated with another far-right figure: accused rapist and social media personality Andrew Tate. Montana brought out Tate during a recent festival appearance in Romania and said, "Romania loves you, my brother." He then dedicated a song to Tate, who later asked those in attendance to chant "escape the matrix." Montana has had an interesting last two weeks, and based on the replies to his latest post, disappointed many of his fans by aligning with two highly controversial figures.

Earlier this week, Bianca Censori popped out for lunch at Chateau Marmont with her husband Kanye West. As expected, the Australian model turned heads with yet another one of her signature scandalous looks, possibly raising some concerns for staff at the Hollywood hotspot. Censori rocked a tiny pair of shorts which she complemented with some black heels and a revealing white bikini top.

While this is certainly no surprise, as Censori has become known for her jaw-dropping outfits, she reportedly violated the hotel's dress code. According to XXL, they expect guests to dine in business casual attire and are fairly strict about enforcing this. Nonetheless, Ye's other half arrived nearly nude and received not a single complaint.

Bianca Censori Turns Heads With Latest Fashion Statement

It's to be noted that this was far from the most risqué fashion statement Censori has made as of late, and not her first lunch at the luxury hotel either. Earlier this month, for instance, she took edgy to a new level by skipping official bottoms and instead sporting a thong. She later stunned in a sheer nude mini dress, which she paired with some long stockings, heels, and a tan hat. At the time, Ye didn't appear interested in drawing too much attention, as he shielded Censori from photographers near the entrance.

At the time of writing, it remains unclear whether or not the staff at Chateau Marmont minds Censori shamelessly defying the dress code. So far, they've yet to comment on her latest look. What do you think of Bianca Censori violating the Chateau Marmont's dress code with her scandalous date night look? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

If you want to be able to succeed and live a fulfilling life, you are going to need a hardworking mindset. That is something that Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, Big Sean and DJ Premier certainly have, as all four music titans land on one track called "Ya Don't Stop". This is the latter's newest release, and it follows-up "Gonna Be Me (the friendship song)" with O.A.R. and Brady Watt most recently. However, it also comes after collaborations with Chance the Rapper, Nas, Snoop Dogg and Daz Dillinger, as well as Russ. With so many big-time voices and just three minutes of run time, how does it all come together?

In our opinion, DJ Premier has another successful offering here with "Ya Don't Stop". Leading up to it's release, some fans were pointing out that Ross and Wayne were going to be on this record. This would not even be a subplot a few years ago. However, with Drake being is Rozay's crosshairs and Weezy mostly being okay with The Boy (maybe?), things are different. Thankfully, the chemistry is solid all around. Big Sean ties everything up nicely with his catchy hook that centers the song's focus on grinding to live lavishly. Wayne probably has the best performance of everyone, as he continues to shred his feature appearances lately.

"Ya Don't Stop"- DJ Premier, Lil Wayne, Rick Ross, & Big Sean



Quotable Lyrics:

I don't stop, I can't stop, I won't stop, I can't breathe
Especially when your knee is on top, deep breath (Uh)
Microphone drop, I keep going like the freeway
Shoutout Freeway, it's the Roc
I got guns like Fortnite, a sharp tongue for sword fights
I look like a born again Christian Dior, right?

The NBA recently announced plans to sign a new TV rights contract with Amazon as part of their media rights negotiations. This means that TNT will be the network losing their rights to broadcast games, which they've held since 1989. Charles Barkley, co-star of the award-winning Inside The NBA, shared a statement regarding the NBA's media rights negotiations with TNT. He made his disappointment in how things went very clear.

"Clearly, the NBA has wanted to break up with us from the beginning. I'm not sure TNT ever had a chance. TNT matched the money, but the league knows Amazon and these tech companies are the only ones willing to pay for the rights when they double in the future. The NBA didn't want to piss them off," said Barkley in his statement, shared by Bleacher Report. "It's a sad day when owners and commissioners choose money over the fans," he added. Barkley has often stressed that the worst aspect of Warner Bros. Discovery (TNT's parent company) losing its NBA rights is that it immediately puts many people out of work. He, like many fans, believes it's unfair for people to suffer because of two multi-billion dollar businesses fighting each other.

Earlier Friday, TNT announced that they planned to take legal action against the NBA. They referred to the NBA's rejection of their offer "unjustified," adding that they believe keeping NBA coverage on TNT is in the best interest of fans. Charles Barkley told The Athletic that he hoped TNT decided not to pursue a lawsuit. "If you have to sue somebody to stay in a relationship, do you think that is a healthy relationship?" Barkley also previously announced that he intended to retire from television at the end of the 2024-25 season. He has been on the air since 2000, joining TNT after retiring from a Hall of Fame basketball career. However, he sounded less committed to those original comments when his money came into question.

Barkley, who is in the third year of a 10-year contract worth $210 million, could become a free agent if Warner Bros. Discovery fails to honor the full terms of his deal. "TNT Sports has to come to me ASAP and they have to guarantee my whole thing or they can offer me a pay cut, which there is no chance of that happening and I'll be [a] free agent," Barkley told The Athletic. "My thing was, 'Wait, y'all f*cked up, I didn't f*ck up, why do I have to take a pay cut?'" If TNT loses rights to the NBA, Inside the NBA will cease to exist in its current form. It would be a bleak ending to one of the most beloved sports shows of all time.

It's no secret that Ice Spice and Nicki Minaj are a match made in heaven musically, but according to the "Phat Butt" rapper, they're not exactly the best of friends when they aren't collaborating. During a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Ice Spice opened up and her and Nicki's bond. She said that while they're not on bad terms, they're not the closest either, despite making multiple hits together.

"We don't have the closest relationship, you know? But we're definitely good," she explained. "We're mutuals. We had smash records together. I love us together. I think the world does too." Ice Spice continued, sharing her thoughts on some text messages leaked by an ex-friend of hers, Baby Storme. In the texts, Ice Spice seemingly expressed her frustrations with Nicki, calling her "ungrateful and delusional."

She appeared to confirm that these were real in her chat with the outlet, though she said this doesn't change her overall feelings towards Nicki. "I don't really think she cares about sh*t like that coming from a random girl," she explained. "But what I said in those texts was just in a moment of frustration around contract negotiations. I could have chose different words. But at the end of the day, regardless of how I felt in that moment, [Nicki] is still somebody I respect as an artist, and I'm always going to admire everything she's done for me and the culture."

If there is one thing that will always remain true in life is that we are all going to grow up. It is a natural process that we all must endure. It really is a sobering reality that some people are not ready to come to grips with. Some rush into adulthood, while others would rather push that inevitable truth as far down as possible. It seems like rap superstar Nicki Minaj is a part of the latter's camp as evidenced by a recent tweet. "So, ummm....WE'RE the adults now? Goodness, it all happened so fast. Do yall offer summer school? Night school?", she questioned.

A lot of her fans were in agreeance with the Pink Friday 2 artist. One Barb writes, "Girl I just stream blessings and continue moving forward". "I'm too damn grown now & it's kicking my behind slowly but surely. Working full time, completing my masters, paying my car payment. Nobody ever told me it comes this fast", another adds. However, there are also a fair share of commenters who are simply floored by Nicki's Twitter thoughts.

"Nicki go to bed baby", one X user bluntly states. Others were coming at the musician for just being one of the older ones in the industry. "You been an adult for like 40 years". "Baby you the new elderly". However, same came to her defense, pointing out her responsibilities as a mother while working in a demanding industry. "Since yall wanna act all ignor@nt, imma explain! When you have a kid, and now you have someone you're responsible for, it's a different type of "Being an adult." It'll done on you differently that you're the adult now ". Clearly, this started a huge debate across social media, and it leads us to wonder where y'all stand.

Back in June, Rubi Rose revealed that she and Druski had gone their separate ways following a few months of dating. She appeared to be going through it at the time, telling interviewers "F*** love" when asked about her favorite love song and declaring that she was single. A few weeks later, Druski was asked about the split at the BET Awards. He opted not to say much.

During a recent appearance on the Big Tigger Morning Show, however, the comedian finally opened up about the breakup. "Yeah, I'm single, man," he revealed. "God blesses you sometimes with situations. It's a learning situation. That's what it's all about." Druski continued, explaining that he simply may not have been ready for the relationship and all that it came with.

"[There wasn't] nothing bad that happened," he said. "We just, you know - she's a beautiful girl. She's doing great in life, man. She's making money, I'm doing the same... I learned that when you got a bad b***h, you can't really...when you have a beautiful woman, of that caliber...it comes with a lot. And I don't know if I was prepared yet."

Luckily, Druski sees the breakup as a valuable learning experience and plans to use all of his new insight in future relationships. "I learned a lot from it, so I think I'm coming out of that [relationship] - you better have them pockets ready," he also added. "I ain't saying that's what happened - you just gotta be ready. Because you don't know when you're gonna have to be pulling that wallet out..." What do you think of Druski and Rubi Rose breaking up after months of dating? Are you surprised or not?

NBA YoungBoy had been on pace to have one of the most productive years of any rapper this year. The Baton Rouge, Louisiana native was pumping out single after single on his YouTube page, with several of them landing on his first record of 2024. Compliments of Grave Digger Mountain might not be his strongest work, but him being so productive early on further proves that there are hardly any more hardworking than him. Unfortunately, his constant run-ins with the law continue to rear their ugly head. Back in April, while on a house arrest in Utah, he was arrested for orchestrating a fraudulent drug ring. However, this latest self-inflicted obstacle is not stopping his release pattern because NBA YoungBoy is back with "Tears Of War".

This marks the 24-year-old's first solo release in about four months, with "Catch Him" (YouTube exclusive) being that last track. However, in terms of overall songs, it's the most recent one since his collaboration with Sean Kingston, "Why Oh Why". Surprisingly, "Tears Of War" sees YB rap with great passion (unsurprisingly) over a No I.D. instrumental (Jay-Z, Pusha T, Drake). Additionally, the record is nearly six-minutes long, which on its face will make a lot of listeners groan. However, NBA really holds his own as he details his mental state, reservations he has with the things/people he loves (the streets, Yaya Mayweather), and much more. Fans are praising and we feel it's well-deserved in this case.

Want me for to change but I'm caught up and I'm thuggin'

Snoop Dogg and Pharrell Williams both carried Olympic torches Friday morning in the last leg of the 2024 relay. The relay, an Olympic tradition, ends with the lighting of the cauldron at the opening ceremonies, signifying the beginning of the Paris Games. More than two months after the Olympic flame was first lit in Greece, Snoop took his torch through a stretch of Seine-Saint-Denis in France. In a video of the scene, the legendary rapper waves to fans in attendance and dances while holding the torch.  

"I look at this as a prestigious honor and something I truly respect," Snoop Dogg previously told the Associated Press after he was asked to do the relay. "I would have never dreamed of nothing like this. I'm going to be on my best behavior. I'm going to be on my best athleticism. I'll be able to breathe slow to walk fast and hold the torch with a smile on my face, because I realize how prestigious this event is." Pharrell was the final bearer of the torch before the flame makes its way to the Olympic cauldron. He carried it to the top of the Basilica Cathedral of Saint-Denis.

For Snoop Dogg and Pharrell, they are two more celebrities who've had the honor of holding the Olympic torch. K-pop singer Jin held it earlier this month. Muhammad Ali, Magic Johnson, the Williams sisters, and others have held it in the past. The torch relay, which started with the 1936 Summer Olympics, spans multiple countries and people from everywhere in the world. It is viewed as a symbol of unity and friendship, becoming a lasting tradition during what is always a joyous time for the participating countries.

Snoop Dogg holding the torch is the latest example of what has been a successful year for the legend. His revived Death Row Records is building out its roster. Snoop introduced Charlie Bereal to fans on Wednesday, a signing that went over well with his audience. He announced Missionary, the Dr. Dre-produced spiritual successor to his debut album Doggystyle, was on the way. Snoop is among the most accomplished artists of all time. And now, he can call himself a former Olympic torch bearer as well.
