The Kid LAROI Pulls Out Of Lil Baby’s Tour Amid Canceled Dates

July 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Things just got quite turbulent for Lil Baby’s upcoming “It’s Only Us” tour- but maybe it won’t stay that way. Still, that’s an optimistic perspective, since another big change to the nationwide trek just broke on the Internet. Moreover, it seems like The Kid LAROI will no longer be accompanying the rapper on his journey across the United States. As of writing this article, the other supporting acts, namely Rylo Rodriguez, GloRilla, Gloss Up, and Hunxho, remain on board for the 24 or so dates of the concert series. Furthermore, these reports come after it was revealed that Baby dropped some cities from the tour, reportedly due to low ticket sales.

To elaborate, Lil Baby specifically canceled shows for Las Vegas, Sacramento, San Diego, Salt Lake City, Phoenix, Minneapolis, Pittsburgh, Indianapolis, Denver, and Louisville. For those who bought tickets to these shows, his team will fully refund the purchases, and some of the new dates aren’t even on sale yet (the new Philly and New York shows go live on Tuesday, July 18). Regarding The Kid LAROI, though, it’s unclear whether this contributed to his exit from the tour. He hasn’t spoken on it as of writing this article, although the Atlanta rapper posted the updated tour lineup on his Instagram page.

However, in brighter news, Lil Baby brought on none other than Teyana Taylor to co-produce and creative direct the tour. “He say ‘ITS ONLY US’ I say ‘IT’S ONLY UP’ from here!” she announced on social media. “So let’s turn s**t up a notch! Go time @lilbaby. Thank you @lilbaby & @qcmceo_p for trusting @theauntiesinc to creative direct & co-produce The #IOU tour! This one will be one for the books fasho!! Musical direction, choreography, production, visual content, wardrobe, stage presence, whew you def in good hands with one hell of a village & I can’t wait for the world to see how much fun we have with this s**t! @lilbaby @theauntiesinc @humanprsn. ‘IT’S ONLY US’ TOUR COMING TO A CITY NEAR YOU #IOU #Theaunties #Aspiketeyjoint.”

Meanwhile, it’s no doubting the fact that the 28-year-old has the fanbase to pack some stellar shows. It’s unclear whether this was a result of overestimated performance or some other logistical issue. Nevertheless, at least it’s not all bad news concerning the “It’s Only Us” tour. Stay up to date on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Lil Baby and The Kid LAROI.

Rihanna & ASAP Rocky Embark On Shopping Trip In L.A.

July 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Rihanna and ASAP Rocky went out together on a shopping trip in Los Angeles on Friday. For the evening, Rihanna rocked a white short bodycon dress accented by a pair of white sunglasses and silver hoop earrings. She also brought along a snake-skin patterned handbag. Rocky, on the other hand, went with a black leather jacket and dark sunglasses. The public appearance comes as Rihanna is pregnant with the couple’s second child.

Rihanna and Rocky welcomed their first child back in 2022. They avoided publically revealing their son’s name for a year before it was eventually reported to be RZA. They later confirmed the reports to be true and that their son is named after the Wu-Tang Clan legend.

RZA, the rapper, described Rocky and Rihanna going with his name as a “great honor” during a recent interview with CNN. “[It’s] a great honor to know that there’s another generation that’s not even of my own household that feels the strength and the inspiration of that name,” he told the outlet. “RZA isn’t only a name, it’s a title. So it’s an honor and I salute her and ASAP and their family. All the blessings in the world from me.”

As the couple awaits the arrival of baby number two, Rocky recently called Rihanna his “wife” during a live performance at Spotify Beach at Cannes Lions in June. Us Weekly reported afterward that the two have discussed the idea of tying the knot. “They’ve talked about getting married down the line,” a source told the outlet at the time. “[They] both think of each other as the one they’re going to spend the rest of their life with.” Check out pictures from Rihanna and ASAP Rocky’s recent shopping trip here.

6ix9ine’s Alleged Baby Mama Says He Ghosted Her, Wants Child Support

July 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Recently, a woman claiming to be the mother of 6ix9ine’s child appeared on the We In Miami podcast. During her appearance, she says the rapper ghosted her when she went into labor, claiming that he was trying to “hide” her and their child. The woman, Roz Verde, says that she now wants child support.

“As soon as I told him my water broke that n***a ran,” Verde claims, “He has not come to see me.” She continues, explaining that she feels as though she has no choice but to put him on child support. “I’m a b*tch that need to be put up, period,” she says, “I’m not struggling and I’m not working hard.” Verde goes on, claiming that she wants the rapper to pay her $50,000 per month in child support. She then jokingly asks the rapper to “come back” to her, claiming that she doesn’t want to make him pay child support.

Alleged Baby Mama Wants $50K Per Month

Verde explains that she believed 6ix9ine would have provided her with “some hush money or something” for keeping their alleged offspring a secret. “It’s slightly transactional,” she says, “I’m not gonna lie.” She says that though the rapper used to be “consistent” with their relationship, the birth of the child changed everything. It’s currently unconfirmed whether or not the child is actually 6ix9ine’s. When the podcast’s host asks Verde if they’ve done a paternity test, she simply shows him a picture of the child, asking him “have you seen my baby?”

6ix9ine, on the other hand, has been showing off his new relationship on social media as of late. Recently, he went live on Instagram with the Dominican artist, Yailin La Más Viral. The couple also appeared on a podcast earlier this month, where they discussed his previous beef with Cardi B. 6ix9ine claims that his ex girlfriend, Jade, was responsible for the feud. Both he and Yailin La Más Viral say that they’re now Cardi supporters.

The Weeknd Reveals Lil Baby Collab On “The Idol” Soundtrack

June 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

“The Idol” soundtrack might just be the best part about the HBO series, or at least that’s what people online suggest. Regardless of your thoughts on The Weeknd’s show, his latest announcement on what its original music will feature (or rather who) should get you even more amped. Moreover, Abel Tesfaye recently confirmed that he and Lil Baby will release their first official collaboration as part of “The Idol”‘s soundtrack. This follows other high-profile collabs with the likes of Playboi Carti, Madonna, JENNIE from BLACKPINK, and many more on the project. Still, you might be thinking, “Haven’t I heard these two together before?”

You would be right, as the two didn’t officially collab together on a track of their own. However, the Canadian superstar and the Atlanta trap leader both appeared on Kanye West’s track “Hurricane” from his 2021 album Donda. Not only was that a fan-favorite hit (that still doesn’t touch the original leak in this writer’s eyes), but a commercial smash as well. As such, expectations are high as to what the upcoming “False Idols” could be, and the potential for it to be the best song on the whole soundtrack for rap fans.

The Weeknd Teases Lil Baby Collab

In other “The Idol”-related news, The Weeknd recently broke down what he and the rest of the team intended with it. “We’re playing with genres with this show, we’re doing exactly what we wanted to do,” he remarked to Variety. “And none of this is a surprise. I’m excited for everyone to watch the rest of the show. It’s almost educational, that this is what comes with being incredibly famous. You’re surrounded by people who you’re not sure what their true intentions are, even if it seems like they’re good. You just never know.”

Meanwhile, the 33-year-old continues to respond to fan hate on Twitter concerning the show’s themes, writing, and acting. Unfortunately, a lot of that negative discussion has caused people to not be super invested in the quality tracks that have formed part of the soundtrack. Perhaps this new collab is what will bring it to the forefront of discussion. On that note, keep checking in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on The Weeknd and Lil Baby.

Gunna Seemingly Unfollows Lil Baby & Lil Durk On Instagram

June 23, 2023 by newhiphopnews

While it’s still pretty unclear, it seems like the beef between Gunna, YSL, and others in the hip-hop world continues to manifest itself. Moreover, eagle-eyed fans noticed that the College Park MC unfollowed Lil Baby and Lil Durk on Instagram. Not only that, but this comes months after Baby unfollowed Wunna on IG, and while The Voice still follows him as of writing this article, he took larger steps to blast his plea deal in the YSL RICO case. “Now I don’t sit up here and play games, man,” he told DJ Akademiks during a podcast interview. “That man told. You should have went in there and kept your mouth closed.”

In addition, this news comes after Gunna seemingly dissed the two for switching up on him on his new album‘s single, “bread & butter,” though he since denied it. Maybe things are more contentious now thanks to alleged leaked calls from Young Thug telling Lil Durk and Lil Baby to respond to Gunna’s alleged disses on his new album, BUSINESS IS BUSINESS. “Yo, aye Wham, if you thinkin’ about responding to the little s**t that buddy put out, I want you to respond on my album,” Thug allegedly told his fellow Atlanta MC. “I’m droppin’ this spontaneous album on the same day he drops his album. I’m going to name this s**t BUSINESS IS BUSINESS.”

Also, here’s what Thugger seemingly told Lil Durk. “Aye Durk, I’m dropping this surprise album on the same day buddy drops his album,” he allegedly stated. “That s**t coming up soon. I need a verse from you. If you feel like you want to reply to what that n***a sayin’ of something, man, don’t do it. Drop it on my album. I’m droppin’ an album the same day that f**k n***a drop. Send your verse in. I want you and Wham on the same song.” However, it’s worth noting that neither Smurk nor Baby appear on the album’s final tracklist.

Meanwhile, in a new song snippet, Lil Baby seems to have directly dissed Gunna and others who took plea in the YSL case. “Some n***as taking pleas at trial I know that slime ain’t happy,” he raps in a new video clip. With all this in mind, it’s interesting that YSL still promoted a Gift & a Curse and that Gunna reposted Thug’s countdown for BUSINESS IS BUSINESS on his social media. While many don’t see the reciprocation from Thug, he did once share a link to Wunna’s music on social media recently, and Gunna clearly only cares about him and not the other former collaborators sending shots at him. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Gunna, Lil Baby, Lil Durk, and Young Thug.

Latto Says She Wants To Marry & Have A Baby

May 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Latto says that she wants to get married and have a baby so she can settle down on a farm with chickens, pigs, and other animals. She discussed her plans for the future during a recent interview with Harper’s Bazaar. The conversation began with her discussing her given name, Alyssa Michelle Stephens, and why she isn’t a fan of it.

“I don’t really like my name. Often, I ask my mama what the hell she was thinking? Because how (do) you birth a star with a regular name? What?” she sighed. “Before I was rapping, I really thought I was that girl, like 10 years old. She should have just named me something more star quality to it. Alyssa Michelle Stephens, huh?”

From there, Latto explained that she has a list of names she has in mind for her future daughter. “I have this whole long list of what I’m gonna name my daughter,” the 24-year-old said. She added that she can’t wait to “get married and have a baby.” She further explained: “I really just want to go out and get a house in the country and have like 10 dogs and maybe like some chickens and pigs and horses – as pets. And just have my kids… that’s the goal. But not tomorrow.” Elsewhere in the interview, Latto spoke about her performance with Mariah Carey, working with Trina and Saweetie, and more.

Latto Discusses Her Plans For The Future

The interview for Harper’s Bazaar comes just weeks after Latto’s music reached 1 billion streams on Spotify. In doing so, she’s had numerous hit songs in recent years. The lead single from her second studio album, 777, titled “Big Energy,” peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100. It marks her song with the most streams on Spotify. She also won the BET Award for Best New Artist in 2022.

Young Thug Supposedly Listening To Lil Baby In Court

May 5, 2023 by newhiphopnews

No matter what crazy court antic hits the YSL RICO case next, at least Young Thug has his headphones in on occasion to drown out the noise. Moreover, he was recently filmed singing along to an unspecified song during court proceedings. However, once fans pieced things together, they actually found that Thugger was rapping along to “Heyy” by close friend and frequent collaborator Lil Baby. Overall, with his hand motions and expressions in mind, at least it looked like he was enjoying himself as he recited the banger. Also, it’s good to see that he’s still bumping his fellow Atlanta MC during all his struggles.

Unfortunately, Young Thug’s relationship with other iconic collaborators is, at the very least, unclear. Furthermore, fans expressed confusion when they found that the “Metro Spider” artist linked Gunna’s latest album on his Instagram bio. Just when fans thought they reconciled after his plea deal, the link disappeared from the social media page altogether, which only added more fuel to that fire. Still, that could mean anything, and it’s also unclear who made that change on the account.

As far as Young Thug’s struggles, he reportedly faces pretty insufficient conditions in prison, raising concerns for his health. One of these crucial aspects is his nutrition, as the food at Fulton County Jail was deemed unhealthy by his attorney. Reportedly, he makes do with chocolate and chips to stay fed and full as he awaits his trial. In addition, complaints emerged surrounding limited access to sunlight, exercise, and other key components of mental and physical health. As such, his attorney Brian Steel recently filed a fourth motion of bond for the rapper, yet his previous attempts proved unsuccessful. Hopefully, if only for the sake of his health, this time will be different.

Meanwhile, Thugger’s older brother Unfoonk reportedly violated his plea deal conditions, resulting in another arrest. Without a doubt, plea deals have been at the center of most conversations surrounding this case. What’s clear is that, whether within or outside prison, Thug does have people rooting for him in the industry. Sometimes it takes a song to be reminded of that, especially when other factors become so complicated. Regardless, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and updates concerning Young Thug.

Lil Baby Takes His Family To Hawks & Celtics Game

April 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It’s far from uncommon to see Lil Baby posted up courtside during an NBA basketball game, but this time he brought the whole family. Moreover, Baby captured a video of him with his loved ones, presumably including his kids and other members. Of course, the Atlanta MC isn’t one to always be flaunting his family around on the ‘Gram, and likes to keep things private from what his social media presence indicates. However, given that the Atlanta Hawks were facing elimination from the playoffs against the Boston Celtics, perhaps this was a special occasion. Unfortunately, their home team lost to the Celtics, but that’s easier to digest when you’re so close to the action.

Furthermore, the “Hats Off” rapper popped out with former girlfriend Jayda Cheaves at multiple Hawks games this season. Many debated whether Jayda should still be around him, but at least their relationship is amicable and friendly in the first place. They also link up often at social gatherings, so it’s clear that things are smooth between them, which helps the family. Unfortunately for the 28-year-old, things just got a lot more complicated.

First off, Instagram model Daliesha Keyes allegedly faked a paternity test and claimed that Lil Baby fathered her child. When she first revealed the DNA test, fans thought that the MC was now a father of three. Since then, reports suggested that Keyes’ claims were false to begin with, and Baby didn’t even have to say anything about it. Also, that news broke just days after his baby mama Ayesha Howard explained why she would never get back with him.

Meanwhile, fans caused an uproar after pictures of the It’s Only Me star and Khloé Kardashian dining together surfaced. Not only did it take a lot of people by surprise, but it also fired up relationship conspiracy theorists. After all, many out there believe in such a thing as the Kardashian Curse. After those photos spread on social media, many think that his career might flop. However, if he has “Sum 2 Prove,” it’s that he can keep dropping great gems- which he did as recently as this week. Regardless, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Lil Baby.
