While hip-hop has a lot of power couples, few can match the business acumen shared by Keyshia Ka’oir and her husband Gucci Mane. Moreover, the two tied the knot around 2017 and have been going strong ever since, as they continue to show the world. For example, in the model, actress, and entrepreneur’s latest photo dump, she featured a few pictures of the two and of herself. “I love my man huni,” Ka’oir included as her post’s caption, with Gucci putting on his iconic million-dollar smile. It’s been a great year for the couple already, and hopefully the good times keep on coming for the Atlanta-raised MC and his wife.
Furthermore, the couple welcomed their second child into the world when Keyshia Ka’oir gave birth to daughter Iceland Davis in February of this year. “Im so thankful that my baby girl is here and she so pretty and healthy 2/8/23 7lbs 2oz ICELAND DAVIS,” Gucci Mane wrote in his celebratory post. Other than their first child, their son Ice, they have other children from other relationships. The rapper fathered son Keitheon in 2007 with Sheena Evans, whereas Ka’oir has two daughters and a son. Many fans expressed shock at hearing that news, but she explained that since they’re older, she doesn’t like to put a spotlight on them.
Of course, it hasn’t all been peaches and cream for the couple as of late. Earlier this year, Big Scarr’s family alleged that Gucci Mane didn’t pay for his funeral (the late rapper was signed to Gucci’s 1017 Records label). When Keyshia Ka’oir posted a receipt of a direct payment to a funeral home to defend her husband, the family didn’t believe it. They went on to say that Scarr was worth much more than what he allegedly paid and that it ultimately pained them more to have him ghost them.
Meanwhile, the Mr. Davis artist is coming out with his next album, Breath Of Fresh Air, in October of this year. During an interview, he spoke on how a lot of tragedy within hip-hop and his evolved lifestyle changed his views on what he called “drilling.” With Ka’oir and his children by his side on the cover art, it looks like it’ll be a much more personal and heartfelt affair. With that in mind, come back to HNHH for the latest on Keyshia Ka’oir and Gucci Mane.
Gucci is one of the biggest brands in the designer world. Although they have certainly undergone some controversies, they are still revered all over the world. The Italian fashion house has even been the subject of full-length feature films with Lady Gaga and Adam Driver. Overall, the brand will not be going away anytime soon. Even if you are not a fan of high fashion, there is nothing you can do about their chokehold on the luxury world. After all these years, they know how to keep things fresh.
For instance, Gucci recently teamed up with Adidas for yet another capsule. This is the second collection they have dropped, and it just so happens to have been released this week. If you are a sneakerhead, there were plenty of options to choose from. The Adidas Gazelle and Adidas ZX 8000 were heavily represented here. Moreover, there was also some apparel to feast your eyes upon. However, the piece that everyone is looking at is the Gucci x Adidas sneaker trunk, which can be found below.

According to Complex, this massive unit will cost you a whopping $120K. The trunk is massive as it contains a hard outer shell that is painted blue and white. Moreover, there is Gucci and Adidas branding throughout. Don’t worry though, you’re not just getting a trunk. You are also getting 12 pairs of shoes within this trunk. Every single pair is a unique colorway of the Gucci x Adidas Gazelle collaboration. Furthermore, it should be noted that the colorways here are a mix of the first capsule and the second one.
The trunk is what is called “made to order” which means you will need to contact Gucci or Adidas directly if you want it. Overall, this is the kind of piece you get if you have a lot of cash laying around. Not to mention, if you love the Adidas Gazelle and you love Gucci, these are an absolute must. You can check out the latest collection from these two brands, right here. Let us know what you think of this piece, down below.
A$AP Rocky is a true trendsetter who continues to show up at fashion weeks in unrivaled style. Thanks to his willingness to take fashion risks, the rapper can wear whatever he wants and make it work. Who could forget the 2021 Tribeca Film Festival in New York, when the “Fashion Killa” hitmaker donned a slim black double-breasted suit by Celine? Not only that, he added a string of white pearls by Galt & Bro draped in front of his tie? With his versatility, it’s little wonder high fashion brands have featured the rapper in their ads.
Recently, the rapper was confirmed to front the best-selling Guilty fragrance by Gucci alongside Elliot Page and Julia Garner. At the February Milan Fashion Week presentation for the label’s Fall/Winter 2023 collection, Rocky further demonstrated why his fashion week outfit portfolio attests to his status as one of the most stylish stars. We’ve compiled all the other times he’s shown up to shows with knockout looks to serve.

Rocky. is a champion of the street-style scene. The then face of Dior stood out from the trendsetting crowd during the fashion house’s couture and Fall 2017 men’s shows In Paris. He wore a fur bomber jacket, fitted pants with suspenders, and a T-shirt featuring a photo of the house’s founder. Included on the shirt was the phrase, “they should just let us rave,” which made for an undoubtedly cool ensemble. The rapper also channeled a young Michael Jackson in his white socks and red and black Nike x Vlone Air Force 1 sneakers. He topped it all off with a single statement ring to keep the look authentically Rocky.
Then, he put a modern spin on the Canadian tuxedo by attending the Fall 2017 show for Dior Homme. There, he donned a patterned jacket and trousers. He also wore a black turtleneck underneath the printed jacket, teaming it with white sneakers from the French label.

A slew of celebrities showed up to see Kim Jones’s debut collection for Dior Homme Spring/Summer 2019 during Paris Fashion Week. KAWS collaborated with the designer to build a massive floral Lattice structure for the label’s runway show. It was the focal point for many high-fashion clothing and accessories.
In addition, Kim Jones’ first runway show was a watershed moment in design. It furthered the convergence of streetwear and high fashion. Being a former face of the brand, Rocky showed up to the event wearing a slouchy grey Dior suit and a mesh undershirt with the label’s iconic monogram pattern. He further complimented his white suit with silver accents and wore silver Dior sneakers to create quite a slick outfit.

Italian luxury manufacturer Gucci showed its autumn 2023 collection with Rocky, Salma Hayek, Halle Berry, and others in the front row. It was a day after appointing the rapper as the face of its cult-favorite Gucci Guilty fragrance brand. At the event, Rocky sported a modern twist on classic menswear. Dressed in the current trend of wide-leg pants, which he wore with an oversized navy blue double-breasted pinstripe jacket, a white shirt, and a black tie, Rocky accessorized with several jewelry pieces. He even went as far as to have the Gucci logo woven into his hair as a tribute to the fashion house. Rocky also wore square-toe boots to finish off his outfit.

At the presentation of Raf Simon’s first Calvin Klein collection during New York Fashion Week, Rocky stood out thanks to his brightly colored ensemble. Simon transitioned to Calvin Klein after holding the position of creative director for illustrious fashion houses such as Jil Sander and Christian Dior. Rocky dressed in the slick style of a classic cozy-boy look for the presentation. He accessorized his look with an orange vintage zip-up jacket by Calvin Klein, a red bubble coat by Balenciaga, and a matching fanny pack. His bottoms were a complementing shade of red to the color of the VLONE x Nike Air Force One Highs that he had on his feet.
Prada Spring/Summer 2020 Fashion Show In Milan

Attending this Prada presentation marked Rocky’s first public appearance after his conviction for assault In Sweden. He was jailed for approximately one month before being released. Rocky wore a navy blue jacket by the brand at the event over a black tee with navy blue shorts. For the upscale event, he partnered with black and yellow chunky socks and black oxfords. He wore diamond tennis bracelets and rings to top off the ensemble.
Fashion month is quickly coming to a close, but that doesn’t mean the stars are done serving looks quite yet. From New York to London, we’ve seen several of our favourite recording artists and entertainers sitting in the front row during runways. Of course, fashion week wouldn’t feel right without acknowledging a few serves from the style icons themselves, Rihanna and A$AP Rocky.
The expecting parents didn’t attend any of the clothing presentations earlier this month. This is likely due to the Bad Gal’s hectic schedule ahead of the Super Bowl. After taking some time to recover from her legendary Halftime show, she and her beau took a trip to Milan. Their 9-month-old son came along for the journey. Cameras caught them stepping out in style all around the beautiful Italian city.
On Friday (February 25), Rihanna dressed to the nines for an evening on the town with Rocky. It remains unclear where they wound up spending the night, but the 35-year-old certainly looked glamorous. Her skin tone was perfectly complimented by the high-slit silk orange dress. She wore it under an oversized bomber jacket hanging off her shoulders. Were it not for her flashy silver heels and matching accessories, the outfit would likely appear far more casual.
The “F*ckin’ Problems” rapper channelled a slightly different vibe than his date, donning light wash jeans in a unique silhouette. The soon-to-be father of two kept warm under a leather jacket, also seemingly layering with a plain white t-shirt. While obviously cool, Rocky’s evening outfit has nothing on the dapper suit he rocked while attending the Gucci runway.
Gucci’s Celebrity Guests

Hours before he and Mamihanna hit the town, the 34-year-old was one of the special guests at the Fall/Winter 2023 fashion show. His look consisted of wide-leg trousers, a pin-striped double-breasted blazer, a crisp button-up shirt and a tie. To prove his love for Gucci even further, Rocky had the brand’s logo braided into his hair in various places.
Earlier this month, the New Yorker was named as one of the faces of the company’s “Guilty” fragrance line. He’s been a longtime supporter, previously appearing in ad campaigns with the likes of Tyler, the Creator and Iggy Pop. Keep scrolling for a closer look at A$AP Rocky’s Gucci braids, and to see photos of the other celebrities at the brand’s latest runway show this weekend.

A$AP Rocky is the new face of Gucci’s bestselling Guilty fragrance. Starring alongside Elliot Page and Julia Garner, the rapper is dressed in signature Gucci silhouettes in the campaign. A$AP Rocky is a longtime fan of the Italian label. He has previously sported Gucci monogrammed babushka scarves, Horesbit sliders, dalmatian-emblazoned tracksuits, and Prince of Wales blazers. He made an appearance in their Fall/Winter 2020 campaign alongside Tyler, The Creator, and Iggy Pop. A$AP Rocky has also attended several Gucci fashion shows, including the Gucci x Adidas show in Milan last February.
The Gucci Guilty scent has a recognizable peppery, mandarin-laden smell. The fragrance has been a hit since it first launched back in 2010. The Gucci label has a history of promoting big names to front their campaigns. Some of these celebrities include Harry Styles, Lana Del Rey, Miley Cyrus, Dakota Johnson, and most recently, Ryan Gosling. The campaign was lensed by British photographer Glen Luchford who has previously captured A$AP Rocky for Calvin Klein’s Spring 2019 campaign.
For the campaign, A$AP Rocky can be seen sporting an ivory ruffled button-up blouse. Overtop, he wore a black diamond-adorned velvet jacket. Sticking to Spring/Summer 2023 trends, an enormous floral brooch was attached. This brought in the floral patterns that the Gucci label is known for flaunting. Furthermore, this look and campaign follow the rapper’s appearance at Super Bowl LVII. He cheered on his partner Rihanna while she brought the house (or stage) down. His look for the night consisted of a custom red, white, and blue NFL leather varsity jacket by designer Jeff Hamilton. The jacket featured an embroidered image of Rihanna’s tattooed hand holding a football.
Additionally, he accessorized with a Fenty-branded trucker hat, and a pair of massive khaki pants held up by his favorite “GRIM” belt. Finally, he completed the look with square-toed boots. Gucci is holding its Autumn/Winter 2023 showcase in Milan this Friday. A$AP is supposed to attend the show, as well as Elliot Page and Julia Garner. We can only assume that he will show up in a look nothing short of iconic for the presentation. The new Gucci Guilty campaign is launching on March 1st. Stay tuned for updates and more details on the campaign on HotNewHipHop, as well as our Instagram and Twitter accounts.
A new interview with BMF artist Bleu Davinci revealed that Gucci Mane wasn’t brought into the collective due to his criminal past. Moreover, Cam Capone News recently interviewed Davinci, who’s Black Mafia Family’s sole label artist. Furthermore, Capone asked him how they met the Atlanta rapper in the first place. In his explanation, Davinci went over the difference between their enterprise and the multiple lanes that Gucci strode. While his story was candid and didn’t necessarily antagonize the “Lemonade” star, many brought snitch allegations forth in the comments.
“Gucci’s a street n***a, he just be outside all the time and s**t, you feel me?” he began. “Gucci was like a part-time jackboy, part-time dope dealer, part-time rapper, Gucci was a slash man. I knew Gucci before I knew Jeezy, know what I’m saying? So Gucci used to always be in the clubs and s**t. Gucci already be in the club. On the wall, looking at n***as with a drink and s**t with his hat down and s**t like that, trying to get him a victim. You feel me? You know, he was cool. Meech knew him, he was cool.
Why Gucci Mane Didn’t Get Down With BMF

“He even used to try to get down with the mob,” Bleu continued. “But Meech was telling n***as like, ‘Nah, man that n***a be out there robbing n***as and s**t, you feel me? We can’t handle n***as that’s known robbers getting down with the s**t.’ It wasn’t just that he was no robber, but n***as know that he gon’ get down on a n***a, you feel me? We just kind of wasn’t doing that at the time. He always been friendly, you know what I’m saying? Always been the homie. So when they made “So Icy,” we was promoting Jeezy.”
Meanwhile, many in the comments called out snitch behavior for mentioning Gucci’s crimes. “Is this snitching ?” one commenter asked. “Cause no one knew Gucci was a known robber.” However, others opted to look at the bright side. “Even tho he a rat it’s good to hear both sides of story,” one user expressed. Regardless of where you stand, come back to HNHH for the latest news on Gucci Mane and BMF.
Gucci is set to present the first stand-alone men’s collection in three years and the first lineup since the departure of creative director, Alessandro Michele. The show is set to take place just after the holidays at Pitti Uomo in Florence and then in Milan. Men’s fashion week runs from January 13th to January 17th.
The five-day event includes 72 events comprised of 21 runway shows and 31 presentations. Gucci is perhaps the most highly anticipated live show, which will open the season at 2 p.m. CET. The show will represent Gucci’s first exclusively men’s collection following three years of coed runways. Though the brand has not yet named a new creative director, the bar remains high.
Italian fashion week is forecasted to reach a turnover of 96.6 billion euros this year, up 16 percent compared to 2021. This is a 4 percent increase against previous estimates of a 12 percent increase year-on-year. Inflation has certainly played a role in fueling revenue growth as prices of end products have increased only 3 percent, entailing that the 16 percent gain in 2022 sales is to be attributed to growing volumes of fashion goods. However, 2023 predictions may read impractical due to volatility in the market and outside variables.
U.S. exports have skyrocketed 54.1 percent in the first nine months of the year, comparable to China’s lower-than-expected growth in, which grew 18.8 percent. This deep dive into menswear, largely set in motion by Gucci’s stand-alone line is a new endeavor that holds great potential for fashion markets. Evolving, modifying, and experimenting with the fashion consumer is how many of fashion’s traditions are solidified.
