DJ Hed was a key figure during the Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef back in 2024. He had the inside scoop on what Kendrick was cooking up, and he was consistent in warning fans about what was to come. While he was vague at times, he was mostly correct. At least when it came to all matters involving K. Dot.

When it comes to the Drake fandom, Hed is not a beloved figure. Instead, he is seen as someone who directly opposes the Canadian megastar. Regardless, Hed knows how to turn some heads on social media, and this afternoon, he did just that.

In a tweet, he revealed that he is excited about tonight’s ICEMAN release. It was here that he revealed Molly Santana is allegedly on the same song as Future. Subsequently, the Effective Immediately host claimed that Drake might have a second album planned tonight, called “Man Of Honor.”

“Gonna be a great night. Looking fwd to him reuniting w/ Future, heard Molly Santana is on the song w them,” DJ hed wrote. “+ alleged “Man Of Honor” (2nd album) droppin like an hour later. Hope we get some slaps.”

DJ Hed On Drake’s Rollout

Quite frankly, this is the first we are hearing of this. DJ Hed’s tweet hit the timeline like a Mack truck, and for the most part, fans don’t really believe him. After all, there is nothing that hints at Drake doing such a thing. Sure, Frank Ocean did this in 2016 with Blonde, but that doesn’t mean Drake is going to do it too.

If a second album really is on the horizon, then the timeline is going to be in complete shambles. However, at this time, it is impossible to say whether or not Hed has a real inside information, or if he is simply engagement baiting.

We will just have to wait and see what happens tonight at midnight.

Very Exclusive Air Jordan 3 “Playground Graffiti” Pack Surfaces Online https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/994961-air-jordan-3-playground-graffiti-pack-sneaker-news Thu, 14 May 2026 20:29:02 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=994961 The Air Jordan 3 "Playground Graffiti" pack features two low-top colorways with camo and graffiti-style printed uppers.

A closer look at the Air Jordan 3 “Playground Graffiti” pack surfaced, and the photos are generating a solid amount of attention. The pack includes two colorways, and both of them look pretty different from anything Jordan Brand has put out on the AJ3 recently.

The first colorway builds on a black base with a camo-printed upper that leans into earthy greens and browns. The second goes in a completely different direction, using a light pink and cream base with what looks like faded graffiti-style artwork printed across the panels. Both shoes use the low-top AJ3 construction, which already feels less common than the standard high version.

One of the more interesting details is on the heel. Each shoe features a Nike Air branding in a different color. The black pair gets a deep pink Nike Air logo. The lighter pair carries a soft blue version. That kind of asymmetry between the two shoes adds a small collector detail that people will notice in hand.

No official release date or retail price has been confirmed yet. The pack is described as ultra-exclusive, which suggests limited distribution rather than a wide SNKRS drop. Whether that means a select retailer release or something even tighter is still unclear.

Air Jordan 3 “Playground Graffiti” Pack

The Air Jordan 3 has been one of the more versatile silhouettes in Jordan Brand’s catalog over the past few years. The low-top construction used in this pack is less common than the traditional mid-cut version. That gives it a slightly different profile than what most people picture when they think of the AJ3.

The “Playground Graffiti” name fits the aesthetic of both shoes pretty well. The camo pair leans military and textural. The lighter pair goes in a more artistic direction with what looks like spray paint or mural-style graphics faded into the upper. The heel Nike Air detail on each shoe reads like a finishing touch meant for people who look closely.

NBA Ben10 Reportedly Shot In Baton Rouge Following April Shooting In Houston https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/994957-nba-ben10-shot-baton-rouge Thu, 14 May 2026 19:55:16 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=994957 Back in early April, NBA Ben10 was shot in an incident in Houston. Now, it has been reported that he was shot again.

NBA Ben10 has reportedly been shot for a second time in as many months, according to WBRZ News. If you may remember, Ben10 was shot in Houston last April. This subsequently led to the arrest of AllStar Jr.

According to the new report, Ben10 and two others were shot in Baton Rouge during a shooting on Wells Street. A private vehicle took three men to the hospital. Their condition is currently unknown.

NBA Ben10 Taken To Hospital

The shooting from back in April led to weeks of social media back and forth, with AllStar Jr. issuing diss tracks against the likes of J Prince JR. It was alleged that AllStar Jr. was being robbed by a group that included Ben10. That is when AllStar took out his gun and began firing, injuring Ben10 in the process.

Ben10’s condition since that time has been relatively unknown. There has also been quite a bit of speculation. For instance, following a photo of himself in the hospital, there were rumblings that Ben10 may have been paralyzed by the shooting. Memo600 and others were seen making light of the situation on social media.

Numerous VladTV interviews have referenced the shooting, including interviews with 6ix9ine and DJ Akademiks.

For now, there is very little information to go off when it comes to the most recent Ben10 shooting in Baton Rouge. At this time, all we know is that the artist is in the hospital. For now, there is no suspect, and authorities are currently in the midst of their investigation.

This is a developing story, and we will be sure to bring all of the latest and relevant updates.

Eminem’s Ex-Wife, Kim Scott, Arrested Two Days After Pleading No Contest To Drunk Driving Charge https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/994947-eminem-ex-wife-kim-scott-arrested Thu, 14 May 2026 19:19:23 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=994947 Just two days after a no-contest plea, Kim Scott, the ex-wife of Eminem, has found herself back in custody for suspected DUI.

Eminem’s ex-wife, Kim Scott, is going through yet another bout of legal trouble, and it could not have come at a worse time. As we reported just a couple of days ago, Scott pleaded no contest to two misdemeanor charges. These charges were for impaired driving and failure to report an accident, according to TMZ.

On Wednesday night, Scott was arrested yet again for suspicion of driving under the influence. As per Chesterfield Township PD Detective Sergeant Joseph Field, it is being said that Scott struck a parked car. This accident took place in the 21 Mile Zone near Detroit. It also took place at night, just after 9 PM.

Scott was then taken to the Macomb County Jail in Mt. Clemens, Michigan, where she was booked. However, TMZ is reporting that Scott has since been released.

The original incident that landed Scott with two misdemeanors was quite similar. She crashed into a parked car while her son and three friends were in the car. Subsequently, she drove home and crashed into her garage. Scott took a breathalyzer test at the scene as police reportedly found liquor in bottles throughout the car.

For those who may remember, Eminem and Scott had a tumultuous relationship. The two were married for a couple of years between 1999 and 2001, before getting back together briefly in 2006.

Overall, this is a very sad story, and we hope Scott can get the help she needs.

This is a developing story that we will be keeping tabs on. Stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the hip-hop world.

The Air Jordan 7 “Miro” Has Been Pushed Back https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/994948-air-jordan-7-miro-sneaker-news-2 Thu, 14 May 2026 18:42:26 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=994948 The Air Jordan 7 "Miro" has shifted from a June release to July 2026, with the return of the sneaker building anticipation.

The post The Air Jordan 7 “Miro” Has Been Pushed Back appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
The Air Jordan 7 “Miro” has been pushed back. It was originally scheduled to drop sometime in June, but the release has shifted to July 10th per Sneaker Bar Detroit.

The shoe takes its name from Joan Miró, the Spanish painter known for his bold use of primary colors and abstract shapes. That influence shows up clearly across the upper. The design pulls in red, yellow, blue, green, and black against a white leather base. Also there are multicolored laces tying the whole look together.

The style code for the sneakers is IQ6573-100. A retail price hasn’t been officially confirmed. That being said, given the AJ7’s recent pricing history, expect it to land somewhere in the $200 to $220 range.

The “Miro” is part of a broader push from Jordan Brand to revisit art-inspired colorways on classic silhouettes. The AJ7 is a good canvas for that kind of project. The shape already has a lot going on, so a busy graphic treatment doesn’t feel out of place on it the way it might on a cleaner silhouette.

This isn’t the first time an Air Jordan 7 has leaned into an art world reference. The “Flint” and “Bordeaux” colorways have always carried a certain collector appeal. Jordan Brand seems to be targeting that same audience here with the Miro.

Overall, July is the new target. More final details on the exact drop date should surface in the coming weeks.

Joan Miró was a Catalan painter and sculptor who became one of the most recognized figures in surrealist and abstract art during the twentieth century. His work is known for bold primary colors, simple shapes, and a playful visual language that still reads as immediately recognizable today.

Further the Air Jordan 7 “Miro” borrows from that world in a pretty direct way. The white leather upper serves as the canvas, with splashes of red, blue, yellow, and green spread across the panels.

The multicolored braided laces add another layer of detail. A gold Jumpman sits on the ankle, and the midsole stacks red and yellow near the outsole.

Finally, the vibrant color scheme and lovable silhouette position the July release perfectly.

Trespasser Arrested At Chris Brown’s Home After Trying To Start A Fire https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/994941-chris-brown-trespasser-arrested Thu, 14 May 2026 18:25:12 +0000 https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/?p=994941 Chris Brown had another incident occur at his home, as a man was arrested for trying to start a fire on his property.

Chris Brown went through a harrowing experience on Wednesday night as a trespasser made his way onto the singer’s property. According to TMZ, the man was eventually arrested by police. It was revealed that the man had allegedly attempted to start a fire at the home.

All of this went down in the San Fernando Valley neighborhood of Tarzana. Police were called to the home by a neighbor, who spotted the man hop a fence into the property. This all went down at 7 PM PST, which means the sun was still up. There was no way the man could have hidden himself from others.

Someone in Chris Brown’s home reportedly confronted the man, and once the police arrived on the scene, he was arrested for trespassing. According to the neighbor who called the cops, the trespasser was known to the community and was considered to be a problem.

Above, you can hear the police call from a separate incident that allegedly took place outside of Chris Brown’s home just a few weeks ago. This particular incident involved Brown’s security guard. Shots were allegedly fired at the scene.

This recent trespassing incident comes days after Brown released his new album, BROWN. It is an album that has proven to be extremely polarizing. Pitchfork gave it their worst score of the 2020s so far. Meanwhile, Brown has since responded to the review with laughing emojis.

Ultimately, this is a bizarre situation, and we can only imagine what must have been going through the singer’s head at the time.

This is a developing story that we will continue to follow.

UPDATE: According to TMZ, the same trespasser was arrested again on Thursday morning.

The post Tony Yayo Reveals Who Got Drake & Future To Squash Their Beef appeared first on HotNewHipHop.

]]>
With ICEMAN just a few hours away, there’s still major speculation about who will appear on the album. A few names have popped up in the rumor mill, including Lil Baby and Karol G but perhaps the most significant artist Drake may have collaborated with recently is Future. As you’re fully aware, Future and Metro Boomin’s album, We Don’t Trust You, is what effectively set off the mass anti-Drake campaign that persists today with “Like That,” the single that included a fiery and combative verse from Kendrick Lamar. 

However, Drake and Future might be back on good terms–weird but kind of expected. But how they got back on good terms remains the question lingering on everyone’s mind. According to Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda, it would not have happened without the assistance of some of Atlanta’s finest, namely 21 Savage and Big Bank.

“Drake supposedly shot a video with Future and Big Bank and 21 Savage is the reason that beef is squashed,” Yayo said before being the latest voice to fuel rumors of an ICEMAN collab. “Future will be on the Drake album. I told y’all n***as, ICEMAN is back. Stand up f*cking Canada.”

Tony Yayo Shares Why Kendrick’s Music Was Removed From DSPs Briefly

On the topic of the recent Kendrick Lamar songs being removed from platforms briefly, Yayo explained that both Drake and Kendrick are bigger than the machine. “Sometimes when you go against the machine, the machine goes against you,” he added. “We don’t know what it is but we know that he’s going to do numbers. When we hear the Future and Drake record, it’s going to be one of them. The video is going to be crazy.”

With only a few hours to go, Drake plans to launch the final episode of the ICEMAN livestream series at 9:45 p.m. EST tonight. Fans will be able to tune in via YouTube. So far, a few songs that are supposedly on the project have been leaked so we’ll see if tracks like “1AM In Albany” appear on the final tracklist.” Check out Tony Yayo’s comments above.

Stephen A.

Smith is one of the biggest names in sports talk television, and he has a ton of pull when it comes to ESPN.

Stephen A. Smith is one of the biggest names in the sports television world, and with that comes a whole lot of power. While he may not make all of the decisions at ESPN, his influence certainly speaks volumes. If he wants something to happen, he can make it happen with some phone calls. Unfortunately, for him, there are just certain things he can’t control.

For instance, about a year ago, Shannon Sharpe was ousted from ESPN. Following rape allegations and a subsequent lawsuit, ESPN felt as though it needed to let him go. Since that time, Sharpe has continued to host Club Shay Shay and Nightcap.

However, during an episode of Out The Mud, Stephen A. Smith made it clear that he would love to have Shannon Sharpe back on the team.

“I’m always going to want him back. The company knows I want him back,” Smith said. “If we can get him back, I want him back. I ain’t apologizing for that to nobody.”

Stephen A. Smith Wants Shannon Sharpe Back

Smith then eventually went on to say that while he has made his stance clear, he does not hold all of the power in this situation. Instead, it is his bosses who get to decide who works at the network.

“I’m the executive producer, but I’m not an executive VP of the company,” Smith explained. “I have bosses to answer to. They have to make that decision.”

Smith’s revolving door of co-hosts has been under scrutiny as of late. Mostly due to the recent reunion between him and Skip Bayless. This turned out to be a massive ratings hit, and the fans have been hoping for Smith to reconnect with Bayless permanently.

If that can’t happen, then the fans would also love to see Sharpe get another chance. After all, he is a knowledgeable and compelling personality who knows how to make good TV.

Young Thug won’t let the world forget about Lil Durk as he awaits trial. The two rappers formed a strong bond over the course of their careers, never holding back their support for each other, especially in times of need. For Thug, he could count on Lil Durk to keep his name alive and well during his incarceration amid the YSL trial. And clearly, Young Thug has no problem returning the favor.

As Lil Durk awaits his murder-for-hire trial, Young Thug pleaded for divine intervention, writing, “Free smurk please god.”

Unfortunately, some of the responses weren’t exactly what he wanted. A few of them accused him of ratting, while others claimed that he turned his back on NBA Youngboy. 

“This is why YoungBoy is king slime. You’re a rat and betrayed your SMM brother to dick ride a Chicago outsider,” one user wrote

Thug hasn’t responded to the backlash. However, he is keeping Durk in his thoughts during this time, clearly.

Lil Durk’s OTF Has A New CEO

Although everyone is basically waiting until August for Durk’s trial to start, there have been a few new updates. Most recently, his label, OTF (Only The Family), appointed a new CEO, Cedrick “SB” Earsery, who previously served as the COO and the manager for Durk.

“Only The Family has always been rooted in exactly that, family,” Earsery reportedly stated in a statement obtained by AllHipHop. “Everything we’ve built, every door we’ve opened, stems from that foundation. My mission as CEO is to bring it back to its truest form. Creating hope and real opportunity for young people in inner cities and beyond. Showing them that no matter where you come from, your path doesn’t have to define your ceiling. […] The name says it all, Only The Family. That’s not just branding, that’s our blueprint. I want to return this collective to what it was always set out to be: a place rooted in purpose, where young people can see something different for themselves and have the infrastructure to pursue it.”

Lil Durk’s trial is reportedly expected to begin on August 25th. We’ll keep you posted on any further updates.
