Gunna Wows Dubai With Exciting Performance, Kills His “Top Off” Rendition

December 17, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Gunna is taking his talents overseas, and his first of two Dubai performances this weekend was quite the show. Moreover, he performed at the Coca-Cola Arena on Saturday (December 16), and will also perform on Sunday (December 17) to open the desert resort Blu Oasis. As such, the (former?) YSL affiliate has a lot to look forward to in the United Arab Emirates and other parts of the world. In fact, it’s very heartening to see him delve into other genres and scenes that weren’t within his Atlanta trap wheelhouse. For example, Sarz and Asake recently brought the College Park native on for an Afrobeat cut, “Happiness.”

Furthermore, following his comeback album this year after his YSL RICO trial controversies, seeing him switch his style up has ranged from surprisingly great to mildly entertaining– at least, in this writer’s opinion. More genres, world influences, travel experiences, and just general growth as a person will surely yield a lot of happiness, greatness, and success for Gunna. After all, his current space in the rap game, although still established and unwavering, seems destined for conflict. Lil Baby turned against his former partner like many other MCs, and while they’d rather see Wunna fall, it’s clear that he won’t let any narratives stop him on his journey.

Regardless of all that, Gunna remains as compelling of a performer as ever, running through verses with methodical pace and making sure every word is felt. Beyond that, it seems like he’s going to take things pretty chill this holiday season. Out of the many people in the 30-year-old’s life with which he will celebrate it, one specific new addition to his circle has fans particularly interested. He recently threw P Litty, his new boo, a fun birthday shindig, and we’re happy that he has someone making his wish come true this winter.

Meanwhile, the Drip Season hitmaker was almost in a car crash recently, and he took it as a sign to update us on new music. Apparently, we might get new material sooner than we think. Do you think there’s another hit album from him coming up in 2024? Let us know in the comments and check back in with HNHH for more news and updates on Gunna.

Bianca Censori’s Balenciaga Shoes Break Necks During Kanye West Dubai Shopping Trip

December 8, 2023 by newhiphopnews

No matter who the woman in Kanye West’s life is, you can bet your bottom dollar she’s always going to be wearing something that pushes boundaries. We witnessed the Graduation artist transform Kim Kardashian’s style throughout their relationship, and brief flings with socialites like Julia Fox and Chaney Jones brought forth unforgettable style moments too. Perhaps the boldest fashion choices we’ve seen from the rapper have been during his marriage to Australian architect Bianca Censori. Ye has obviously switched up his style considerably, but he also had an in-house team designing very revealing looks for his wife to wear around Europe all through the summer.

After causing a stir in Italy and other countries, the controversial couple jetted off to Dubai, where West has been busy working on his album with Ty Dolla Sign. Between studio sessions, he spends some of his free time at the mall with Censori. She was recently out wearing some eyebrow-raising Balenciaga pumps; the $1,200+ shoe is from the brand’s Spring 24 collection and is made of faux fur.

Bianca Censori’s Style is Seriously Unique

As you may recall, the foreign fashion house faced plenty of backlash not so long ago for endangering children in their bondage bear advertising campaign. Much to the internet’s surprise, they were able to redeem themselves (at least in the eyes of celebrities), hosting a star-studded runway presentation this weekend with plenty of bold new looks. Ye and Censori weren’t in attendance, though Kardashian and Kendall Jenner were there.

Kanye West hasn’t completely cleaned up his reputation after spending much of 2022 berating the Jewish community, but he certainly doesn’t have as many enemies as he once did. As the father of four continues to spend time in the Middle East, we’ve seen him reconnecting with old friends like Lil Durk and signing autographs for eager fans. Read what Timbaland recently had to say about the fellow production legend at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Kanye West & Real Estate Agent Dine In Dubai

December 2, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West is still in Dubai, and a recent dinner prompted speculation that he might want to purchase a property there. Moreover, he chopped it up over some food with real estate agent Marcel Remus, and the two appeared in a couple of snaps that surfaced online. While the details or nature of this conversation weren’t publicized, there are a couple of different considerations that could inform this meeting. One is that the Chicago rapper is interested in acquiring more real estate, whether that’s in the United Arab Emirates or in other parts of the world. It doesn’t have to be for him, either; he could be figuring out a way to get some other form of permit, ownership, or lease.

Of course, this last possibility points towards an infamous part of Kanye West’s past few years– which is saying a lot. Furthermore, he tried to organize concerts a couple of times already this year, if every single report about it is accurate. However, these efforts dodged Ye at every turn, despite the alleged proximity of his collab album with Ty Dolla $ign and his own solo work. Even though the hate train has died down a bit, he still has a lot to answer and atone for if he is to fully return to the public’s good graces.

As such, Kanye West’s low-profile stay in Dubai, as well as his international travels over the past year or so, came as no surprise. After all, it’s got to be more private and easy to avoid paparazzi and hecklers overseas… even if they find you anyway. Regardless, he probably got has bigger things on his mind, such as his relationship with his wife Bianca Censori. Apparently, the two recently went through a rough patch, but the 46-year-old and the architect are moving past that.

Meanwhile, his new song “Vultures” got him in more hot water for its references to Jewish women. It seems like this is an inescapable reality in this narrative, which is disheartening to see. Hopefully Ye keeps laying low, especially if he’s just going to keep fanning the flames of his controversies. For more news and the latest updates on Kanye West, stick around on HNHH.

Dwyane Wade Lives Large In Dubai In New Instagram Post

November 29, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Dwyane Wade posted up in Dubai, flaunting a lavish new look. Wade rocked an open black button-up, and aviator sunglasses with a custom chain. “The confidence makes others uncomfortable,” Wade wrote on his story posts as he drank champagne and vibed to music. Wade, who was spotted at a Marquette game in Hawaii last week, was in Dubai after attending the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Despite this, people still took the opportunity to roast his fit online. “Him living his zesty life,” one person wrote. “He’s so cringe, but go off sis,” added another. “He look like a hit dam auntie,” noted a third. Wade’s flamboyant style has often led people to speculate that he is secretly queer. These unsubstantiated rumors have only been furthered in recent years by Wade’s unconditional support of his daughter Zaya, who is trans.

However, Wade is not the only celebrity who has recently spent time in the luxury Middle Eastern city. Meek Mill was also recently spotted in Dubai. Rocking braids, Meek posted up with an unknown female companion in the city, posting a collection of photos of the two of them. These photos got mildly raunchy, including one in which Meek stands behind the woman while she is bent over in front of a window. However, both individuals are fully clothed.

The trip comes just a few weeks after Meek took the internet by storm. Fans lost it as Meek got horny on main on social media. On the evening of November 10, Meek told social media about one of his deepest fantasies. “I want an older rich freaky bad cougar…it’s my fantasy,” the 36-year-old rapper wrote. While X users were initially stunned, they quickly rallied to turn the post into one of the weekend’s biggest talking points. Several people took it as an opportunity to shoot their shot. “I’m 58 [heart eyes emoji],” one user replied.

Kanye West & Bianca Censori “Getting Back On Track,” Won’t Return To The U.S. For Christmas: Report

November 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

For a minute, it looked like Kanye West and Bianca Censori’s marriage was crumbling less than a year after it started. There’s been consistent concern about the amount of control the father of four has over his wife, and while she returned to Australia to visit family a few weeks ago, those closest to the architect reportedly sat her down for an intervention. While insiders initially said Censori was waking up to the troubling nature of her relationship, she’s now back in Dubai with Ye, and sources say they won’t be returning to the U.S. for the upcoming holiday season.

“Ye has loved being out of LA. He’s never been a huge fan of the city and has no immediate plans to return, despite having a place here and his Yeezy HQ,” someone close to the “Ultralight Beam” artist told The U.S. Sun this week. “Bianca has spent time back in Australia. They’re getting back on track and planning what to do for the holidays.” Apparently, the pair are looking at heading back to Italy for Christmas, where West is renting a spot, though we have to wonder if they’ll be allowed back in after their nearly-nude escapades around the country.

Currently, the designer is considering having his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, fly to Europe with their four children so they can enjoy the holidays as a family. “It’s up in the air at the minute,” the outlet’s insider dished. For now, Ye is focusing on living in the moment in Abu Dhabi, where he’s been reconnecting with old friends like Lil Durk and Ty Dolla Sign.

Since he started spending more time in Dubai, Kanye West has been looking notably happier. We’ve seen footage of the Yeezy founder chatting with fans and posing for photos with his eldest daughter, North, who’s been visiting her dad while he works overseas. Elsewhere, footage of West dancing to his latest single, “Vultures,” with Chris Brown went viral, though the reasons weren’t exactly flattering. Read what critics are saying at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Meek Mill’s Mystery Woman On Dubai Trip Had Him Going Bad For Her: Photos

November 26, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Meek Mill recently hit up Dubai for some international travel, and the baddie that accompanied him had him feeling pretty excited. Moreover, he posted some pictures of them together for which he posed quite seductively, saying that he’s “a different breed” “with the braids.” As such, the Too Good To Be True artist seemed to have a great time, and maybe their socials will show us what else they got up to in the city. Given the recent release of the Rick Ross collab album in question, we’re sure he has plenty of reason and motivation to celebrate. However, the Philly MC also reckoned with some less than positive stories and narratives in his life as of late.

For example, he recently called out Trippie Redd out of the blue, and had some harsh words for the Ohio hitmaker. “This guy no good!!!” Meek Mill wrote on his IG Story over a picture of Trippie. “I ain’t even know you said my name…. If you f**k with me f**k this guy right here…. I wanna stand on n***as freely saying my name make it tight outside! I ain’t even know you said my name I seen you get pulled in a room by the gangstas in la you was scared. But let’s see how tough yall guys are! I can’t believe these Philly young bulls gassed you to say my name! ‘ look like you repping the devil ima show you how trying god is @trippieredd.”

On the other hand, the Dream Chasers boss also recalled his very first rap battle, during which he very much got destroyed. “My first time rap battling — this some real s**t — that n***a made me cry,” Meek Mill shared. “I was like a bada** young boy at the time. We was battling, but it wasn’t about the battle. My whole hood was laughing at me and I never got laughed at about s**t. You can’t mess with my sneakers, nothing! I turned around and peeped with my eyes, got that lump in my throat, I started crying and walked off. I said, ‘All y’all n***as gonna be banging my s**t!’”

Meanwhile, what do you think about this recent post? Will we see this mystery woman more or is this a chapter in the book of the cougar fantasizer? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments down below. For more news and the latest updates on Meek Mill, check back in with HNHH.

Bianca Censori Goes Braless For Dinner With Kanye West Amid Break Rumors

November 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Seems like they’re not on a break anymore; Kanye West and Bianca Censori recently went out for dinner in Dubai at Chef Nobu’s restaurant location there. Moreover, the rapper met with the culinary expert and they all seemed to have a pretty good time together from what new pictures and videos indicate. While he was the subject of a lot of camera flashes, Bianca also called a lot of attention due to her braless white bodysuit look, keeping up her history of ruffling feathers and revealing a lot with her fashion. Regardless, this is their latest international adventure on Ye’s path of reclusion, possible new music, and dealing with he firestorm of his controversies.

Furthermore, this is something that allegedly caused the couple to go on a break just about a week ago. While things seemingly patched up since then, it also came amid reported rumors that Bianca Censori’s friends staged an intervention concerning her relationship with Kanye West when she recently went to her native Australia by herself. Maybe that’s what caused the alleged break in the first place. It’s all speculative, but at the very least, any issues going on behind the scenes aren’t apparent on their regular outings.

Meanwhile, Kanye West’s new single “Vultures” is the first tangible instance we have of his Ty Dolla $ign album legitimately materializing. It’s been a rough road up until this point, with canceled shows, pushed-back release dates, a search for a distributor, and very little remorse for his past comments that make fans less excited for new music. Amid all this, the Chicago rapper’s relationship with Bianca Censori has been relatively stable up until recently, when these rumors of a break swirled. But things already became complex long before then.

After all, plenty of ink’s been spilled over the past few months concerning their alleged relationship dynamic. Even though it’s all been part of the gossip train, it’s hard to not see the context it provides for some of the antics they get into. We just hope that they’re not playing for the cameras and feel free to support each other and nurture their own endeavors. If you’re curious, check out vids and pics from the Dubai dinner in the “Via” link below. Also, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Kanye West and Bianca Censori.

Kanye West, Bianca Censori, Ty Dolla Sign & Chris Brown Party In Dubai: Watch

November 23, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West recently hosted a party in Dubai, and as one could imagine, it boasted quite the guest list. In a new clip, the hitmaker is seen holding his wife Bianca Censori close as they groove to Chris Brown and Young Thug’s 2020 track, “Go Crazy.” What’s more, they were accompanied by Breezy himself, who appears to have been in good spirits. Both Ye and Censori were also all smiles, appearing to have a great time at the event.

The couple were also joined by Ty Dolla Sign, who’s currently working on an upcoming collaborative album with Ye. The two performers have been teasing the project for some time now, even dropping off a new song called “Vultures” earlier this month. They previewed the song, which featured Lil Durk, a few days prior to its release. They later officially released the track, and listeners quickly noticed that Durk was missing. He seemingly responded to being cut on Instagram yesterday. “Be lucky I’m humble,” Lil Durk wrote. “Look at it as your blessing.”

While he surely looked to be doing well in Dubai recently, some worrisome headlines about Ye just surfaced earlier this week. Reportedly, he was worried that his former personal trainer, Harley Pasternak, was “following” him. According to sources, the two of them ran into one another at a hotel in Dubai, sparking the reports. They have had their fair share of issues in the past, which explains why he might have been concerned.

Later reports, however, suggested that Pasternak was actually the one concerned about being in close proximity to Ye. Sources, who were reportedly at the hotel at the time, claim that Ye approached Pasternak for a hug, prompting him to ask staff to call security. What do you think of Kanye West, Bianca Censori, Ty Dolla Sign, and Chris Brown partying in Dubai together? Are you looking forward to Ye’s upcoming collaborative album with Ty Dolla Sign?

Harley Pasternak “Following” Kanye West In Dubai, Rapper Reportedly Believes

November 21, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West has spent years building his legacy, and though more than one speedbump has set him back over the years, he’s still wary of anyone with seemingly bad intentions coming too close to his empire. 2022 in particular was a year full of paranoia for the “Runaway” rapper, who took aim at virtually everyone previously a part of his inner circle. Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson certainly felt the heat – as did Ye’s former personal trainer, Harley Pasternak. At the time, the fitness mogul was allegedly threatening to “drug [him] to Zombieland” if a “loving, open conversation” couldn’t take place between them.

“First, you and I sit down and have a loving and open conversation. You don’t use cuss words and everything that is discussed is based in fact, and not some cr*zy stuff that d*mb friend of yours told you, or you saw in a tweet,” the reality star reportedly texted West in the past. “Second option. I have you institutionalized again where they medicate the crap out of you, and you go back to Zombieland forever. Play dates with the kids just won’t be the same.” It’s understandable why the father of four was concerned about his safety in the past, and now, he’s feeling nervous once again as Pasternak is staying at the same hotel as him in Dubai.

Kanye West Has Concerns About His Ex-Trainer at His Hotel

Footage obtained by DailyMail shows the personal trainer hanging out in the building’s lobby on Monday (November 20). The outlet notes that Yeezy and his kids are currently staying together, and Pasternak’s behaviour comes across as “extremely suspect.” A source tells them, “We have grave concerns as to what this creepy operative is doing in Ye’s hotel. The timing is extremely suspect. We are very concerned indeed about his motives and intentions.”

Kanye West is a long way from home as he deals with his anxiety surrounding Harley Pasternak’s presence at his hotel and his seemingly crumbling relationship with Bianca Censori. Thankfully for the 46-year-old, his eldest daughter, North West, has been overseas alongside him, providing plenty of comfort to her hero. See a recent photo of the duo together at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

Jayda Cheaves Too Turnt In Dubai, Socialite Loses A Shoe & Falls On Her Way Home: Watch

November 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

For single women, there’s no time like a girls’ trip to let loose and have fun. Jayda Cheaves is reminding us of that during her time in Dubai with her besties. The group is currently travelling for Dess Dior’s birthday celebration, and Cheaves has been having tons of fun showing off her bikini body and designer outfits while out on the town. Following this weekend, a video of the mother of one has been circulating on blogs, showing that she might’ve had a little too much fun during a recent outing.

In the clip, Cheaves appears to be white girl wasted, wearing only one of her cute pink boots. Thankfully her other shoe wasn’t lost – another woman in their party carried it while attempting to help Lil Baby’s co-parent make it back home safely. Despite their best efforts to hold her up, Wayda’s friends couldn’t quite stop her from nearly sliding into the splits in what looks like their hotel lobby.

The blonde beauty was able to laugh off the hilarious moment, though many people in the comments expressed concern for her safety. “I would be so scared to be drunk like that in Dubai, they look you up for anything,” one IG user speculated. “Baby you couldn’t pay me to play in Dubai . Them folks stricter than Judge Judy,” another quipped. Before long, Cheaves dropped by to give us an update after her wild night out and address her critics.

Jayda Cheaves Addresses Drunken Video

“This was lite compared to the things we seen at 5 PALM!” Jayda Cheaves promised haters in @theshaderoom’s comments. “Everybody relax. A time was OVERLY had. It feels great to be able to get lit and lt loose overseas,” she added. “Dubai is a TIME and isn’t what y’all try and make it seem. Finish enjoying your Sunday love bugs.” Would you get as lit as Jayda Wayda did in the UAE? Let us know in the comments and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
