Shakira Walks Off Miami Stage After Confronting Fan’s Inappropriate Filming”

Shakira left the stage at a Miami club after catching a fan attempting to film up her skirt while she danced to her new song, “Soltera.” 

The superstar was at LIV Miami to preview the single and appeared to be shooting a video with Winnie Harlow, Anitta, Lele Pons, and Danna. A fan video posted to Twitter showed her interacting with the other female artists before taking the stage. While performing her signature hip-gyrating moves, she noticed an unknown fan filming under her brown lace dress, pulled it down, and signaled for him to stop. 

Shakira then gestured to the crowd, wagging her fingers to show that she saw the inappropriate behavior, and tried to continue dancing. However, when the person persisted, she called for the music to stop and left the stage, visibly upset. She was escorted off by the same group of women that helped her on stage. 

Fans and the general public were quick to decry the videographer’s behavior as “creepy” and “inappropriate,” amongst other things.

Shakira, however, appears to have chosen to focus on the positive aspects of the evening, sharing fun backstage videos to her Instagram account from the night in question.

No release date for “Soltera” has been announced, marking her first new music since her March 2024 album Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran.

However, the North American leg of Shakira’s Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran world tour kicks off on November 20 in Palm Desert, CA and ends in Detroit on December 15.

Jay Critch Gets Into “1 Vs 6” Brawl With Trollers In New York

by

Overall, Jay Critch comes across as one of those MCs who stays to himself for the most part. He’s rarely causing drama in the public eye and seems pretty humble. Unfortunately, the Brooklyn veteran has occasionally gotten tangled up in some street fights here and there. It’s nothing that’s too out of the ordinary in general, but for some reason that’s what seems to be a reoccurring thing here and there. For example, around this time two years ago, Critch went viral for getting into it outside of a New Jersey nightclub alongside some of his boys.

Ironically, the Humble Giant is making headlines for the same reason again as video footage below shows. It isn’t much, as the clip is only five seconds. But it appears that Critch was jumped in the streets of New York as an assailant hits him in the face with what is said to be his shoes. Like the NJ debacle, there isn’t any word on how things unraveled. But unlike last time, we have some physical evidence of Critch and one of his alleged “6” attackers jawing at each other after the fight online.

A post shared by Akademiks TV (@djakademikstv)

“I popped on U first 1 vs 6 and left chains. U Lost”, the MC says to the user dottydot_ on IG. He then replies, “@jaycritch 😭😭 I beat you out ua sneakers before they even got there, and I let you have ya chain”, he began. “I took it off ya neck…. You thought it was lit when you backed out that camera dummy”. Later, to try and put away any doubts that Critch wasn’t telling truth, he added on his IG Story, “End of story!”, with his aforementioned quote above. Maybe this time we will learn the cause of this brief and viral clip.

What are your thoughts on Jay Critch getting jumped and punched in the face in New York? What do you think escalated this brawl? Whose side do you believe more in this debate? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Jay Critch.

The Alchemist Hypes Fans Up With Tracklist & Cover Art For New Album “The Genuine Articulate”

by

The Alchemist is dropping a new album on Friday (September 20), and fans couldn’t be more excited about yet another release in this prolific catalog. The legendary producer led the rollout with the single “Ferraris In The Rain” featuring ScHoolboy Q, indicating that this will boast many lyrical performances from him as an MC. Now, he shared the jagged but slightly regal cover art for the project, as well as the features for it. Across 8 tracks, Uncle Al will spit verses alongside Action Bronson, Big Body Bes, Havoc (all love to Mobb Deep, RIP Prodigy), Conway The Machine, and Larry June.

Moreover, this should make up for the disappointment that many fans expressed when Eminem released the Expanded Mourner’s Edition of his new album The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce). Many fans hoped that The Alchemist would lend some production to new deluxe cuts, but this was sadly not the case. Their strong bond has led many to beg for more collaborations, but it looks like they’re saving those for a very special occasion. Hopefully that’s sooner rather than later…

The Alchemist’s The Genuine Articulate: Cover Art & Features

What’s more is that The Alchemist’s prolific streak obviously doesn’t just refer to his projects and releases as a solo or collaborative artist, but also to his production work with other musicians. For example, he recently produced A$AP Rocky’s latest Don’t Be Dumb single, “Ruby Rosary” featuring J. Cole. It was a welcome surprise as a team-up, with the tender, eerie, and languid beat contrasting with Rocky’s typically animated delivery. Of course, Cole does his thing, too. We can’t wait to see what comes next, especially if it’s as new and exciting of a joint effort as that.

Fortunately, we already have a good idea of what that could look like. Big Sean recently revealed that he and The Alchemist are working on a full collab project. The latter just produced the former’s “Together Forever” off of his new album Better Me Than You, and they previously linked on “Palisades, CA” off of the beatsmith’s Larry June joint LP The Great Escape. We can’t wait for Friday and beyond!

Today In Hip Hop History: EPMD Dropped Their Fifth LP ‘Back In Business’ 27 Years Ago

by
Albumism EPMD BackInBusiness MainImage 2x1

On this date in 1999, one of Hip Hop’s greatest duos of all time, Erick and Parrish Making Dollars, released their fifth full length studio album Back In Business on Def Jam. EPMD were making stellar albums together since Hip Hop’s “Golden Era” and were actually the artists who appeared on the very first copy of The Source Magazine. So this album was actually a bittersweet one, being that Erick, who had now launched Def Squad while PMD maintained the Hit Squad banner, the two put out this album after feuding for the previous three years.

Getting back to their regularly scheduled program, EPMD did most of their own production and, of course, had Grandmaster DJ Scratch, contribute behind the boards along with newcomers Agallah and Rockwilder. Guest appearances included guest appearances from Def Squad members Keith Murray and Redman, while Hit Squad member Das EFX made an appearance on one track.

The album’s only standout track was the radio friendly “Da Joint”, which is partially why the album didn’t receive the critical acclaim that was given to their previous four projects. For the first time in their career, the “Brothers from Brentwood” underdelivered to their fans and most believed that their deliberate hiatus created a disconnect that couldn’t go unnoticed.

Salute to Erick, Parrish, Redman, Keith Murray, DJ Scratch, Rockwilder, Agallah and everyone else involved in this important piece of Hip Hop history!

Latto Attempts To Change Narrative Around “Brokey” By Presenting An Opportunity To Blue-Collar Workers

by

Early last month, Latto put out her highly anticipated project, Sugar Honey Iced Tea. Overall, the LP has seen some praise from fans and decent reviews from critics. However, one of the record’s songs has been stirring up some debate online for its lyrical content. That track is “Brokey” and listeners have appeared to take its words out of context, at least according to Latto. In all honesty, topics like this, especially in trap music, are extremely common. We feel people are making mountains out of molehills, but still, here’s the issue at hand. The issue that fans have with it is that they feel Latto is dissing all of the blue-collar workers who can’t always provide luxuries to their partner or don’t get enough from their partner.

“B****es gotta wait till they birthday to go out of town“. “Brokey / Yeah, I talk a lot of s*** (Haha) / He like, “Who you think you is?,” n****, not your b**** / Brokey“. These are just some of the bars that are setting some off. So, Latto is looking to change the discourse surrounding “Brokey”. According to Uproxx, the Columbus born artist sent out a challenge to her “hard workers” out there and it’s paying out quite a bit of change.
