When Slayr came out and said that this collaboration was not actually in the cards, things escalated. DC The Don began insulting Slayr on his X page, which promptly led to some strong responses from Slayr. Ultimately, fans were quick to react, noting that this could have been solved privately.

“Slayr is like me if I was never athletic attractive or knew how to dress,” DC The Don wrote on X.

“Failed NBA experiment cries because after blowing up in 2017 he is still at the same level at where he started,” Slayr replied.

Slayr & DC The Don Beef

This is an important time in Slayr’s career, as he was recently placed on the XXL Freshman List. Overall, this is a big honor for up-and-coming artists. It just goes to show that he is putting on for the underground. Of his contemporaries, he is the most likely to become a mainstream success.

As for DC The Don, he has been an underground artist for almost a decade. However, he has a dedicated fanbase which has allowed him to make a career out of music. Quite frankly, it is a shame to see these two beef. They could have made a dope song together.

Of course, there is always an opportunity for both men to let bygones be bygones. Although it is probably too soon for that, all things considered.

New images of his next signature shoe leaked online. The Nike LeBron 24 appears in a white and gold colorway. @carterwangchina shared close up photos of the shoe in hand.

Gold trim wraps around the ankle collar. White knit fabric covers most of the upper. A tonal white swoosh sits quietly on the side. It’s a subtle look for a moment that feels anything but subtle. This is LeBron’s first shoe tied to a new team.

For years, his signature line lived under the Lakers’ shadow. That chapter is over now, whether fans are ready or not. He’s heading east, landing next to Joel Embiid and Jalen Brown in Philadelphia. It’s a fresh start most people definitely didn’t see coming.

The LeBron 24 is expected to drop this fall. That puts it right in line with opening night. Naturally, fans are already looking ahead. A 76ers themed colorway feels almost inevitable at this point. Nike has leaned into player moves with colorways before.

Given everything happening around LeBron, this shoe carries extra weight. Basketball fans and sneakerheads are both locked in right now. For now, this white and gold pair is the first real glimpse. It’s a small preview of a much bigger story still unfolding.

Nike LeBron 24

Overall, the shoe keeps things fairly simple. White knit fabric dominates most of the upper. Gold trim runs along the collar for contrast. That combination gives the shoe a clean, premium feel.

The swoosh stays tonal rather than standing out sharply. Little else competes for attention in this early look. That restraint suggests Nike may save bold colors for later drops. A team-specific colorway would of course lean into 76ers branding colorway with red, blue and black.

For now, this pair works more as a neutral starting point. Fall timing keeps the release tied closely to opening night. Fans will be watching closely as more images arrive.

Brown is slated to be sentenced in October. Furthermore, his affray charge has a maximum sentence of three years. This is a steep penalty, and fans are anxious about how this is going to play out in the courts.

According to Bradford Cohen, a high-powered attorney for the likes of Kodak Black, Brown probably has nothing to worry about. On X, he delivered his analysis on the guilty plea. In his mind, Brown’s legal team saved him from lots of trouble.

In fact, Cohen believes Brown will be coming home. He is out on bail right now and performing as part of The R&B Tour. That said, the lawyer believes Brown will probably get a suspended sentence as this is his first offense in the UK system.

Bradford Cohen On Chris Brown

“The Chris Brown plea is a masterclass,” Cohen explained. “Three heavier counts dropped, left with affray — a 3-year max the court almost never maxes out. First UK conviction, guilty plea credit, no trial. I’m calling it now: suspended sentence, he goes home.”

A suspended sentence is when the court allows you to go on probation as opposed to going to prison. However, if you violate probation, you are sent to prison. It’s a best-case scenario given the potential maximum sentence of three years that he is staring down.

This case is ongoing, so stay tuned to HNHH for updates.

Ultimately, Charleston White felt like his stunt proved that he had the heart of a lion. During a conversation with Akademiks, he explained that he’s “Michael Jackson Bad” and more courageous than someone like Tupac.

“J. Prince Jr. a hoe, he a p*ssy,” he said. “Me and him done bumped heads before. I done bumped into Rap-A-Lot in Austin, I done bumped into ‘em in Dallas, I done bumped into ‘em in Miami. But I ain’t never went to their hood. I went to they hood, my n***a, by myself… I really think I’m bad, n***a. I’m really Michael Jackson bad, n***a. Tupac couldn’t do this because he had to get M.O.B and Death Row.”

Charleston added that he’s the first person to have this type of arrogance, boldness and disrespect toward the guys in the street. “I really think I’m bad and showed up at Fifth Ward, n***a,” he continued. “When I realized where I was at, I did not run.”

J. Prince’s Response

After Charleston White’s stint in Fifth Ward, J. Prince spoke out. 

“Never allow a maggot to draw you down to its level,” a message from social media read. “A maggot will always beat you at being a maggot. Eventually, maggots become flies, eating s**t, agitating others, and spreading contamination until their last days. I’ve lived with roaches, rats, and flies most of my life, all trying to eat off my plate. Eventually, the universe rewarded them all. ‘And no weapon formed against me shall prosper.’ To all the human rats, roaches, and flies who keep campaigning, eventually you’ll be elected. Congratulations. #JPrinciples.”

As you’d expect, solitary confinement comes with its own restrictions and TMZ recently reported on the Admission and Orientation Inmate Handbook at FCI Fort Dix. This document explains the protocols involved with solitary confinement, which is described as “Disciplinary Segregation.” Ultimately, he won’t have access to a number of privileges, and that might even include having personal property taken away from him. 

He will have access to the essentials — blankets, mattress, shaving material, toilet paper, and a pillow. However, outside of that, it seems like he’ll also have access to reading material and a staff doctor who will visit him daily. When it comes to visitation, he’ll only be able to get one visit weekly, if he has access to this privilege. Diddy should also expect regular updates on his housing situation.

Ultimately, Diddy will have an update of things that he won’t be able to have as a result of his “Disciplinary Segregation,” along with a list of potential sanctions he’ll face based on each infraction. It’s still unclear how much time he’ll be doing in the hole. But we’re sure that will be revealed in the near future.

Diddy’s Prison Fight 

Apparently, it all began when Diddy got dissed by another inmate, leading him to supposedly retaliate and “hold his own.” Unfortunately, part of Diddy’s conditions for early release depend on good behavior and something like this could potentially screw things up for him. 

We’ll keep you posted on any further updates regarding Diddy and his current situation. Sound off in the comments with your thoughts.

The Bronx rapper hit the ‘Gram to share her side of the story. Apparently, she intended to touch the stage, but the problem was that the contract was never completed, even though she was billed as a headliner.

“See yal & im sorry things didn’t work out last night. i was booked for 1 song but contract wasn’t done despite promoting me as a main performer for weeks.. i’ll try my best to make it up to u all thx for understanding,” she wrote on X.

The responses showed that many of her fans were anticipating seeing her on the stage that night. However, they also seemed much more understanding than you’d expect most online fanbases.

What’s Ice Spice Been Up To?

Outside of Summer Jam, Ice Spice has maintained a presence in the media over the past few months, even though we haven’t received much music from her.

Moreover, it appears that Ice Spice landed a verse on Ye and Ty Dolla $ign’s unreleased song “New Body,” which initially included a Nicki Minaj feature.

The YouTuber has since moved to Los Angeles, and he is now covering the D4vd-Celeste Rivas murder case. Last week, preliminary hearings were held to determine whether or not this goes to trial. Some disturbing evidence was presented last week, and it led to some petrified reactions in the courtroom.

As Trap Lore Ross explained on his YouTube page, it was one of the most harrowing things he has ever seen. In fact, Ross was in tears while describing the horrific scenes.

Trap Lore Ross Is In The Courtroom

The YouTuber has been spending hours in the courtroom every single day and has had to sit through hours of horrific and disturbing images. After taking some time to truly reflect on what he saw, Ross admitted that it has been difficult. He says that it’s been a traumatic process and that sometimes the images come to him randomly when his mind is elsewhere.

Trap Lore Ross went on to say that this is beyond anything else he has ever covered. Despite covering some pretty brutal cases over the years, he feels as though this is worse than anything he has ever seen.

He went on to say that the person responsible for Celeste Rivas’ death deserves the death penalty. At this time, a trial has yet to be confirmed in the D4vd case. However, it is likely to go down that path.
