August 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Sexyy Red could be coming to a city near you this fall. The “Pound Town” performer recently announced her first headlining tour, featuring 20 stops around the U.S. The fall 2023 “Hood Hottest Princess Tour” is scheduled to kick off in October with a performance in Boston, wrapping up in San Francisco in November. The tour poster also boasts the idea of some special guests, who have yet to be announced.

Sexyy Red will make notable stops in New York, Philly, Fort Lauderdale, Atlanta, LA, and more. The rapper will also make a stop in her hometown of St. Louis, MO on October 30, moving on to perform in Chicago on Halloween. It’s clear that social media users can’t wait to catch Sexyy Red live, as they’re sounding off on Twitter. “Imma be first in line,” one fan excitedly writes.

Her upcoming tour isn’t the only thing Sexyy Red has to be excited about. The 25-year-old is hot off the release of her new single alongside Sukihana, “Hood Rats.” Lil Durk also recently teased an upcoming collaboration with the female MC, which has yet to be announced. Earlier this week, she also hinted at a new remix of her hit Hood Hottest Princess track, “SkeeYee,” getting fans speculating in the comments section. The hitmaker recently linked up with Tyler, the Creator, posing for photos with the Grammy-winner. Fans had a field day with the photos, with some even joking that he got a BBL. He of course played along, claiming that the “cat is out the bag.”

After teasing her pseudo-fling with Drake earlier this summer, Sexyy Red was recently added as a supporting act on his tour. Drake and 21 Savage are making their way around the U.S. and Canada until the beginning of October. Earlier this week, she was even spotted staying “cozy” during soundcheck, rocking a white night gown and a bonnet. Stay tuned to HNHH for more updates on Sexyy Red.

Tyler, The Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw Headliners Revealed On Livestream

August 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Tyler, The Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival is making its grand return this year, and that means a grand reveal. Moreover, the festival’s official website and Twitch page are currently live-streaming the reveal of its lineup as of writing this article. The footage shows various people painting the names on a festival mural, and they’re still painting at the time of publishing. Still, there are already some exciting names on display, and we’re still waiting on some of the more big and mainstream announcements. Given all the anticipation for this upcoming spectacle on November 11 and 12 of this year in Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles, fans went into a frenzy.

Furthermore, this is Camp Flog Gnaw’s first iteration in four years, as it hadn’t ran since 2019. That year, performers and special guests included Tyler himself, A$AP Rocky, Lil Uzi Vert, a controversial Drake appearance, and many, many more. Unfortunately, tickets for this year’s run sold out lighting-fast, so you’ll be hard-pressed to find one if you don’t have yours already. Regardless, this creative and anticipation-building way to reveal its performers is bringing everyone along for the ride.

What’s more is that the Hawthorne creative and innovator revealed Camp Flog Gnaw’s return in perhaps the coolest way possible. If you didn’t already know, he had a cameo appearance in Baby Keem and Kendrick Lamar’s music video for their loosie, “The Hillbillies.” During it, they performed at Dodger Stadium and Tyler flashed a badge that read “Camp Flog Gnaw 2023,” and followed the video with an official announcement. With that in mind, many expect for the pgLang MCs to appear on this lineup very soon.

Meanwhile, it’s still incomplete, but let’s run through some of the many names already announced as of writing this article. There’s redveil, AG Club, Paris Texas, Ravyn Lenae, Fana Hues, Maxo Kream, Baby Rose, Left Brain, Teezo Touchdown, and a few more. If you caught this article early, find the link to the livestream below. If not, it’ll probably take you to the official full lineup once this stream wraps up. For more news and the latest updates on Tyler, The Creator and Camp Flog Gnaw, stay up to date on HNHH.

Teezo Touchdown Shares Cover & Release Date For New Album

August 10, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Teezo Touchdown is without a doubt one of the most exciting artists working today, with so much vibrance, creativity, and versatility as a rapper, singer, and writer. While he’s gained a lot of fans in the past few years, there’s nothing like a new album to open up the gates for further stardom. Moreover, the Texas native recently announced the release date for his next project, How Do You Sleep At Night?, and shared its cover art. The new LP is scheduled to release on Friday, September 8, and it follows great singles like “5 O’Clock.” If you’ve never heard of Teezo before, join the Rid the Mid campaign and check him out before this drop.

Furthermore, the album’s cover art shows about four different versions of the metal-haired creative laying down on a bed in black-and-white. He seems to be wearing a mesh shirt on the cover, and didn’t remove the nails from his long hair before saying night-night. It’s quite a trippy image, with all the Teezo Touchdown depictions blurring into each other in trippy fashion. Overall, it’s an evocative and eye-catching image that hopefully represents the imaginative and genre-blurring talents that the 30-year-old proved to channel time and time again.

Teezo Touchdown’s How Do You Sleep At Night? Dropping On September 8

What’s more is that this seems like the perfect time to become a Teezo Touchdown fan if you’re not one already. Many listeners got their introduction to him thanks to “MODERN JAM,” a highlight off of Travis Scott’s massive new album UTOPIA. Teezo’s feature on that cut is reminiscent of André 3000’s acrobatic vocal inflections, with his own original charisma and vocal talents on full display. Maybe it’s a hot take, but he might just be the best feature on the whole project, because when has a Travis song ever had the energy that Teezo brought to the table?

Meanwhile, there are plenty of singles for you to enjoy and catch up on before How Do You Sleep At Night? drops. This will be a big year for him, and one that will likely put him at the forefront of chameleon-like musicians. Hopefully the album lives up to the hype. For more news and the latest updates on Teezo Touchdown, keep checking in with HNHH.

August 8, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Travis Scott will be officially embarking on the Circus Maximus Tour in North America, later this year. To promote his new album, Utopia, Scott announced the run of concerts on Tuesday morning. He’ll be making stops in Chicago, Boston, Atlanta, Las Vegas, Houston, and more cities from September through November, this fall. On Instagram, he also noted that an announcement for European dates will come soon.

The tour announcement comes after Scott performed in Rome, Italy on Monday night. While running through his Utopia songs, Scott also welcomed Kanye West to the stage. In doing so, he praised the legendary rapper as the “greatest of all time.” Together they performed “Praise God” and “Can’t Tell Me Nothing.”

The Circus Maximus Tour will be Scott’s first time hitting the road in this capacity since the Astroworld: Wish You Were Here Tour in 2018-19 when he brought along Gunna, Sheck Wes, and Trippie Redd. It was also when the tragic crowd rush occurred during his Astroworld Festival performance, the legal ramifications of which, he is still facing.

Joell Ortiz Announces Release Date For New Album “Signature”

August 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Joell Ortiz of Slaughterhouse fame has spent a lot of time working on his next album- and it’s coming out very soon. Moreover, the lyrical master recently announced that his new project Signature will be releasing this Friday, August 11. Of course, given previous singles like “Holy Ghost” with CyHi, “Doors Up,” and “OG,” this should come as little surprise to die-hard fans or casuals alike. What’s more is that this upcoming LP is a full-on collaboration, with the Brooklyn MC enlisting a sole producer behind the boards. L’Orange has lent his adept and vintage sound to each single so far, and will likely give us much more sonic bliss to delve into.

Furthermore, fans expect to be once again blown away by the 43-year-old’s entrancing flows and authoritative demeanor. His sound is one plucked straight out of the hardcore East Coast brand of potent bars and grippingly grimy narratives. Given all that Joell Ortiz has been through and learned throughout his life, his perspective is always a vivid and self-aware one. For example, many of his songs reflect on his unwavering hunger as a rapper and his developing age and outlook.

Joell Ortiz Announces Signature Release Date

However, some fans who heard these singles might find that there’s something familiar about them. That’s because Signature seems to be a revamped take on his 2021 album, Autograph. In fact, all the previous singles have two-year-old equivalents on that tape. Still, don’t let that fool you into thinking that there’s nothing to explore or be excited about here. Even the most hardcore Joell Ortiz supporter will find new life in his verses thanks to the darker, more unique production from what singles indicate.

As such, make sure to give Signature a listen when it lands on your preferred music consumption portal on August 11. If you’re a longtime listener, you’ll enjoy listening to these songs with a fresher context and implication given the differing beats. If you’re new to his artistry, then get excited: there’s so much more to digest, unpack, and enjoy. On that note, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Joell Ortiz.

NBA YoungBoy & Rap Snacks Team Up For Official Snack Collaboration

July 13, 2023 by newhiphopnews

NBA YoungBoy is one of the hottest rappers in the game right now; does that mean he likes his chips spicy? Guess we’ll find out, since Rap Snacks recently announced that they welcomed YB into the food company’s family by releasing his own Rap Snack soon. While we don’t have any information on what flavor it’ll be as of writing this article, fans wasted no time in guessing. Whether it was legitimate answers like garlic or spicy nacho or more outlandish, meme-centric options like cigarette butts or gunpowder, this is clearly not your typical Rap Snack. In addition, the Black-owned brand also introduced Kodak Black to their repertoire, so we’ll see what these two MCs bring to the dinner table for a pre-meal delight.

Of course, YoungBoy usually sticks to his music rather than rack up extracurriculars, so this is an exciting move for him. What’s more is that it could be one of many routes he recently embarked on to spread his branding and image around outside of the many mixtapes and albums he releases. For example, rumors surfaced online of the Baton Rouge rapper making his own sneaker. That’s just based on a shoe he wore being engraved with “Grave Digger” on the tongue, and it’s unclear whether it’s just a custom pair or a sneak peek at an upcoming release.

Still, it’s not like the 23-year-old necessarily needs any of these partnerships to go to the next level. After all, his cult and dedicated fanbase is a steady stream of revenue, engagement, and support that many artists would probably drop hundreds of thousands for. By that same token, though, it’s a group of diehards that will most likely (and now literally) eat up anything that YoungBoy puts out, so the more they can connect with, the better. In any case, if these new Rap Snacks don’t do it for you as a fan, at least the three YB projects out this year so far keep you fed.

Meanwhile, the Richest Opp rhymer recently released a new track titled “I Need To Know.” Furthermore, it formed part of the Never Broke Again compilation project, Green Flag Activity, Vol. 2. Perhaps he prepared some other projects for us in 2023 as well. On that note, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on NBA YoungBoy.

Britney Spears Announces Memoir, “The Woman In Me”

July 11, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Britney Spears will be releasing a memoir titled The Woman in Me on Tuesday, October 24th, 2023. Gallery Books, an imprint of Simon & Schuster, will be publishing the work. Spears shared an announcement video for the book on Instagram, Tuesday.

“Britney’s compelling testimony in open court shook the world, changed laws, and showed her inspiring strength and bravery,” Jennifer Bergstrom, Gallery Books Senior Vice President and Publisher, told PEOPLE. “I have no doubt her memoir will have a similar impact — and will be the publishing event of the year. We couldn’t be more proud to help her share her story at last.”

The book promises to reveal “for the first time her incredible journey (and) strength at the core of one of the greatest performers in pop music history,” while also showing “the enduring power of music and love — and the importance of a woman telling her own story, on her own terms.” The press release also described The Woman in Me as “a brave and astonishingly moving story about freedom, fame, motherhood, survival, faith, and hope.”

Spears first teased the idea of writing a memoir in 2022, after the infamous legal battle she endured to end her conservatorship. Simon & Schuster later won a bidding war for the rights by offering Spears $15 million. It is available for pre-order now. Check out Spears’ official announcement below.

The announcement of Spears’ memoir arrives just days after she made headlines for an altercation with the security team for San Antonio Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama. She claimed to have been “back-handed” in the face by a security guard in Las Vegas. Las Vegas police later determined that the singer inadvertently “hit herself in the face” while reaching for the 19-year-old.

Cam’ron Announces New Mixtape & Hints At A Mase Collaboration

July 10, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Cam’ron says that he’s dropping a new mixtape on Friday, July 28. In an Instagram post on Sunday, the Dipset rapper teased a song from the project and hinted at having a collaboration with Mase on it.

“Just warming up. @itiswhatitis_talk mixtape July 28…,” he captioned the snippet. “#IIWII the new DEATHROW[.] WELCOME TO THE ROW N-GGA[.] We just got to summer leauge too!! Vegas we here!!! And by da way the old MURDA BACK!!!! @rsvpmase.”

Cam’ron Performs With Mase

As for the unreleased song, Cam’ron played the preview while recording himself in his car. “No gossiping, I don’t deal with side talk/ I don’t look for spots, man, I park on the sidewalk/ I told the cop, ‘I don’t care, I like to risk it/ I’ll have another car here before you write the ticket,’” he raps.

The announcement of new music comes after Cam’ron recently launched his sports talk show, It Is What It Is. While discussing the show with Good Day New York back in May, Cam’ron hinted that it could mark a shifting of his focus away from music. “So look, Hip Hop is 50 years old and I’ve been doing this [25 years], so if you don’t reinvent yourself, you’ll be looking at a 1997 Cam’ron,” he said at the time. “I’m like, ‘I love sports and I need to be on television.’ People always offer me things to do on television. So I’m like, ‘Let me create my own show, not somebody giving me a show, and see how it goes.”

Mase also serves as a co-host on It Is What It Is, something Cam also touched on during the Good Day New York discussion. He explained: “Mase got me my first record deal, ever. So doing this show and creating this show and having him be a part of it, it felt like I’m giving back to him for helping me even be an entertainer. I may not have been where I’m at if [Mase] didn’t take me to Biggie Smalls [The Notorious B.I.G.] and get me my first record deal… I wanted to pay him back, and hopefully, this show will do that.”
