4th of July

Jay-Z Sports $7 Million Watch At 4th Of July Party

by

Earlier this week celebrities showed out in bunches for Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin’s 4th of July party. Names like Jack Harlow, Lil Baby, Travis Scott, Coi Leray, and more showed up. As attention-grabbing as the list of names was the dress code. The party was an all-white affair that saw stars showing up in sleek bright white outfits. Even among a sea of notable fits though, Jay-Z stood out.

In the wake of the party while digging through all the photos fans noticed a piece Jay-Z brought with him. According to HipHopDX, the “Empire State Of Mind” rapper supplemented his fit with a rare Patek Phillippe watch worth more than $7 million. That figure comes from another one of the watches which sold at an auction. Back in April of 2022, someone picked it up for $7.7 million. There were plenty more flashy watches to be seen at the event. Both Lil Baby and DJ Khaled pulled out pricey wristwear for the occasion, but everyone’s drip was dwarfed by Hova’s.

Jay-Z’s looks didn’t just get attention at Rubin’s party. He recently showed up at Paris Fashion Week in support of Pharrell. It was the rapper and producer’s debut as the Head of Menswear for Louis Vuitton. Jay-Z performed after the show alongside Tyler, The Creator, and Pharrell himself. During his performance, he played his song “N*ggas In Paris” which features Kanye West and fans took notice when West’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian was singing along in the crowd.

Jay-Z also showed up in Paris for a different reason, to relax. He was spotted on Beyonce’s Instagram relaxing with the singer after she wrapped up the European leg of her Renaissance tour. Despite Jay’s notoriously private approach to life, he’s been showing up often recently. It wasn’t even the only time in recent weeks he made a memorable appearance on Bey’s Instagram page. What do you think of Jay-Z’s pricey watch from a 4th of July party? Let us know in the comment section below.

In celebration of the 4th of July, Fanatics CEO Michael Rubin threw a party that had celebrities showing out by the dozen. The hip-hop world was well represented with Jay-Z, Travis Scott, Lil Baby, and Jack Harlow in attendance. The most eye-catching thing about the gathering was the all-white dress code. Celebrities showed out with some of their finest fits to the function. Now, Coi Leray has taken to Instagram to share both her outfit and her thoughts on the function.

Coi Leray dropped some pictures of her outfit and various photos of herself with other celebs at the party. The most notable shows the “Players” rapper side by side with Justine Skye and Kendal Jenner. In the caption, she explains how much fun the gathering was. “Greatest party ever I forgot I had a phone !!!! Thank you so much @michaelrubin for having me !!!! I’m blessed to be surrounded by so many amazing humble talented people.” Even more, stars showed up in the comments of her Instagram post. Most notably, French Montana who made his thoughts pretty concise with a single shooting star emoji.

Coi Leray Slays In All White

Coi Leray just dropped her sophomore album COI. The album got attention before it even dropped with its strange feature list. David Guetta, Saucy Santana, Giggs, Lola Brooke, James Brown, and Skillibeng. The album continued being talked about when the underwhelming first-week sales numbers came in. The album sold just 10k units which was only good enough for a #102 debut on the Billboard 200. Since her song “Players” has been a big hit all year those numbers felt disappointing to many.

Before that, Coi Leray took to the BET Awards with an outfit that honored women in hip-hop. The moment became a point of contention with fans once the album’s bad sales dropped. Many fans saw the performance as a wasted opportunity to promote her new album further. What do you think of Coi Leray’s outfit at Michael Rubin’s party? Let us know in the comment section below.

Snoop Dogg Explains Independence Day To Boosie Badazz

by

Boosie Badazz faced a bit of backlash after celebrating the 4th of July. The Louisiana rapper took to Instagram on Wednesday morning mid-haircut to ask his followers to educate him on the federal holiday. Although it’s commemorated as the day when America became an independent nation and adopted the Declaration of Independence. However, there’s a complicated history behind the holiday for Black Americans. While the 13 colonies gained freedom from the British Colony in 1776, Black Americans were still enslaved and weren’t free until 1863, which many commemorate with Juneteenth.

However, Boosie didn’t necessarily realize the history behind the holiday. “Aye, I need somebody to educate me on July 4th,” he said. “Everybody in my DM saying I should not celebrate Fourth of July if I love my Black people. But I don’t really know the meaning of Fourth of July. I always thought it was some war shit. I need to be educated on the Fourth of July, bro. Because I’ve been celebrating the Fourth of July in the hood with fireworks since I was born. If I’m celebrating some wrong shit, I need to be educated.”

Snoop Dogg Educates Boosie Badazz On 4th Of July

Boosie captioned his post, “HOW IM A [SELL] OUT? I ACTUALLY DONT KNOW‼ ALL I KNOW IS FIREWORKS.” However, Snoop Dogg came into the comment section to provide a brief history lesson for Boosie Badazz. “It’s ya oppresses freedom celebration we weren’t free yet and that’s why call me Nefew I’ll game u up,” Snoop Dogg wrote in the comment section. He added, “Juneteenth is our holiday of last free slaves.”

Boosie Badazz wasn’t the only rapper who celebrated 4th Of July. Michael Rubin hosted his annual party in the Hamptons where hip-hop’s A-Listers joined in on the festivities. Jay-Z and Beyonce attended, along with Meek Mill, Lil Baby, and more. Additionally, Kim Kardashian, Lori Harvey, and more also came through to party at Rubin’s event. Boosie didn’t necessarily have the same level of star-studded guests but he certainly enjoyed his time with his family.

Kevin Hart & Druski Seen At Michael Rubin’s Party

by

Michael Rubin hosted his white party on the 4th of July, and all of the celebrities came out to play in the Hamptons. While plenty of hip-hop stars graced the party and got decked out in all-white for the festivities, two comics were also there. Kevin Hart and Druski brought their charm to the party (if not exactly the drip). While it’s difficult to hear the video, the assumption is Kevin is dogging on Druski’s outfit, which is clearly not all-white and a little too liberal with the print patterns.

“I never knew Druski’s face was this big,” Kevin Hart says to the camera as he gets real close. His comment stems from the somewhat tiny cowboy hat Druski is wearing, his head popping out of his shirt as well. Kevin gave him one of his patented confused/disgusted stares before issuing the comment. Druski couldn’t help but keep laughing. The duo seemed to be having a wonderful time at Michael Rubin’s Hampton hang. And what respected comedic pair wouldn’t dog on each other?

Kevin Hart has simply been Kevin for the last couple of years. Ever since his infidelity back in 2017, he’s stayed in his lane as one of the best comedians in the world. He has talked about mental health with Method Man, has given props to Ice Cube, and has wondered with Jadakiss: How many chains are enough? No doubt he kept the jokes flying towards Druski — and everyone at the party, to be honest. (No one is safe when Kevin Hart is in the vicinity.)

Druski is currently blending comedy with hip-hop, bringing Kodak Black out onto the stage during his Florida tour dates. He also defended Chloe Bailey for poor album sales. Druski and Kevin Hart are funny men in their prime. They’re invited to Michael Rubin’s exclusive party and hamming it up with hip-hop celebrities. They are stars in their own right, for sure. But mixing them in with the kings and queens of rap makes for an even better evening.

Jay-Z Shows Up In All White To Michael Rubin’s 4th Of July Party

The stars showed out in absolute bunches to one particular 4th of July party this year. Michael Rubin, CEO of sports merchandise company Fanatics threw a party packed full of guests dressed in all white attire. In attendance were major names like J-Lo and Ben Affleck, Justin Bieber, Tom Brady, and many more. Hip hop was also pretty well represented at the event with names like Travis Scott, Jack Harlow, and Lil Baby in attendance. One of the biggest stars to make their way to the party was Jay-Z.

The rap legend doesn’t pop up in the public light that often. Jay-Z recently made an appearance on wife Beyonce’s Instagram. The pair were relaxing in Paris following the end of her Renaissance tour. It was familiar territory for the couple who had also recently been spotted in the city for Paris Fashion Week. They were in attendance for Pharrell’s debut collection as Head of Menswear at Louis Vuitton. Subsequently, Jay-Z even gave a live performance after the show where Kim Kardashian got caught singing along to a track that features her ex-husband Kanye West.

Jay-Z’s All-White Fit

Recently one of Jay-Z’s biggest hit songs reached yet another astounding milestone. “Empire State Of Mind” a collab between him and Alicia Keys was certified 9x platinum. The track comes from Jay’s 2009 album The Blueprint 3 and is among his most well known tunes. While in Paris for the Louis Vuitton show Jay and Bey linked up with a number of celebrities in attendance. Despite that, the crowd afterwards still had some trouble during Jay-Z’s performance. After repeatedly trying to get the crowd to clap along, their failure to stay on beat eventually made him just give up.

Jay-Z’s most recent studio album came out all the way back in 2017. 4:44 saw the rapper processing many of the relationships he had with people like Beyonce, his children and even his own mother. What do you think of Jay-Z pulling up in style to Michael Rubin’s 4th of July party? Let us know in the comment section below.

Chief Keef’s July 4th Driveway Fireworks Display Went Terribly Wrong

by

The fourth of July is supposed to be a patriotic holiday celebrating the signing of the Declaration of Independence before the founding fathers sent it off to King George (their timing was terrible; the first fighting of the American Revolution started days before it reached its destination). But for many Americans — let’s just say “most” of us — it’s really a day off work in which we get to eat unconscionable amounts of barbecue, get exceedingly day drunk, and/or blow some stuff up. Namely: fireworks. Lots and lots of fireworks.

And despite the fact that fireworks are illegal in many municipalities for obvious reasons, that hasn’t stopped people from “celebrating” July 4th with impromptu displays in driveways, backyards, parking lots, and/or in the middle of the street. It certainly didn’t stop Chief Keef, who set off an impressive display in his own driveway on Monday, surrounded by his friends and fleet of muscle cars. Unfortunately, there was just one problem: Chief Keef is by no means a pyrotechnics expert and things almost immediately went wrong, spraying fireworks all over the driveway and sending people ducking for cover behind the cars.

Look: it’s not completely funny. After all, 11,500 Americans were hospitalized with fireworks-related injuries in 2021 alone and that was a drop from the year before. There’s a reason private fireworks are illegal. But on the other hand, if you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes, and there is little as amusing as watching instant karma, provided nobody actually gets hurt. Maybe Keef and co. have learned their lesson and will invest in a specialist next year. Still, we’d rather see our favorite rappers playing with fireworks than with guns, so viva la revolution until next year.

Watch the video above.
