RZA Shocks Fans With Classical Music Album, “A Ballet Through Mud”

September 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

RZA has gone in a new direction with his latest album, A Ballet Through Mud, which sees him collaborating with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra as led by Christopher Dragon. Rather than a hip-hop release, RZA taps into the genre of classical music for the project. “I found my old book of lyrics that were written from the age 14 to 19, and I wanted to find a way to put music to it, so I started that as the foundation, storytelling in a way that was not just confounded to the lyrics,” he told BET of the decision. “It was almost like the story started lyrically, and then I wanted to express it without having to say anything.”

Speaking with PEOPLE for a new interview, RZA also revealed that Andre 3000’s recent flute album, New Blue Sun, served as an inspiration for his new project. He began by recalling meeting up with the legendary rapper during the COVID-19 pandemic. “We both talked about [our albums] and went on our way and, of course, he did it. He put [New Blue Sun] out,” RZA said. “And I think the beauty of his is that it didn’t take as many people to translate. That’s the glitch when you’re dealing with an orchestra of 60 people. But when his album came out, it just inspired me to keep going. Like, ‘Yo, I’m going to put mine out as well.’” Check out A Ballet Through Mud below. Be on the lookout for further updates on RZA on HotNewHipHop.

RZA Switches Genres For New Album

Tracklist:

Aeolian Beauty
Clear Sky After Storm
A Ballet Through Mud
Winds From the West
Divine Intervention
Freedom of Movement
Soft Footsteps
Good Night 1st Movement
The Night Dances When You Least Expect It
Moving Meditation
The Lotus Arrives

Snoop Dogg on a Mission to Find Martha Stewart Her Perfect Match

September 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Snoop Dogg and Martha Stewart Recreate 'Titanic' Scene

In a heartwarming display of friendship, rapper Snoop Dogg is determined to help his longtime friend, lifestyle mogul Martha Stewart, find the love of her life. According to sources, Snoop, 52, has taken it upon himself to play matchmaker for the 83-year-old television icon, who has yet to find a lasting romantic relationship.

Snoop and Martha’s unlikely yet endearing friendship has been well-documented over the years, from their popular cooking show collaborations to their joint appearances at various events. Now, Snoop is reportedly going above and beyond to ensure his bestie finds happiness in her personal life.

Sources close to the pair reveal that Stewart has been leaning on Snoop for relationship advice, and he’s enthusiastically jumped at the opportunity to help her find the man of her dreams. “He can’t understand why a beautiful soul like Martha hasn’t snagged a guy when she looks so great and much younger than her age,” insiders shared.

Despite her success and charm, Stewart has had a few love interests over the years, but none have blossomed into serious relationships. The options presented to her have been less than ideal, with sources noting, “The options haven’t been good in terms of serving up a guy who’s sexy and charming and eligible.”

But Snoop isn’t one to back down from a challenge. The rapper is said to be encouraging Martha to get out of the house and take on new projects, all in the hopes that she’ll meet someone special along the way. He’s even taken on the responsibility of vetting potential matches for her, ensuring that only the most suitable candidates make the cut.

With Snoop’s unwavering support and matchmaking efforts, fans are hopeful that Martha will soon find the romance she deserves. Their friendship, already a beloved example of two very different personalities coming together, could now lead to a new chapter in Stewart’s life—one filled with love and companionship.

As Snoop continues his mission, it’s clear that his bond with Martha goes beyond their shared love of cooking and entertaining. It’s a testament to the power of true friendship, where even the most unexpected connections can lead to beautiful outcomes.

Kanye West Sells Malibu Beach House at Massive Loss, Takes $36 Million Hit

September 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West, known for his bold artistic vision and extravagant lifestyle, has made headlines once again—this time for a significant financial setback in the world of real estate. The rapper and entrepreneur, who purchased a luxurious Malibu beach house for a whopping $57.3 million in 2021, has sold the property for just $21 million, resulting in a staggering $36 million loss.

The oceanfront property, which West had gutted with the intention of completely overhauling, was snapped up by California-based real estate crowdfunding firm Belwood Investments. Public records show that the sale took place last month, marking a dramatic decrease in value for the once high-profile purchase.

West’s decision to buy the Malibu home was part of his broader portfolio of real estate investments, reflecting his penchant for acquiring unique and high-end properties. However, his plans to remodel the house were never fully realized, leaving the property in a gutted state at the time of sale.

The loss is a rare and substantial one, even for someone with West’s financial clout. It underscores the risks involved in high-stakes real estate ventures, particularly in the luxury market where properties can fluctuate drastically in value based on factors like location, condition, and market trends.

Despite the significant financial hit, West remains one of the most influential figures in entertainment and business, with a net worth that still stands strong. Whether this loss will impact his future real estate ventures remains to be seen, but it serves as a reminder that even the most successful entrepreneurs are not immune to the risks of the market.

As for the Malibu beach house, its new owners at Belwood Investments have yet to announce their plans for the property. Whether they will carry out West’s original vision or take it in a new direction, the future of this oceanfront estate will be one to watch.

Pras’ Fails To Earn Retrial In Political Conspiracy Case After AI Scandal

September 1, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Pras Michel’s attempt to get a retrial due to his lawyer’s actions during his political conspiracy case was unsuccessful. U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly decided that his defense attorney using generative AI for his closing arguments wasn’t enough to warrant a serious miscarriage of justice. The AI program notably attributed lyrics from Diddy’s song, “I’ll Be Missing You,” to Michel, among other errors. Despite this, Kollar-Kotelly didn’t feel the mistakes were enough to impact the jury’s ruling.

“Michel does not explain how this mistake—the mistaken attribution of a Puff Daddy song in the closing argument—resulted in prejudice. Specifically, Michel has not shown that there is a reasonable probability that the result of his trial would have differed had Kenner correctly attributed a lyric to him,” Kollar-Kotelly said, as caught by AllHipHop. “Notably, the content derived from the AI program did not relate to any evidence in the case, only general sympathetic statements and one lyrical quote.”

Pras Arrives At His Trial In Washington D.C.

WASHINGTON, DC – MARCH 31: Pras Michel, a member of the 1990’s hip-hop group the Fugees, arrives at U.S. District Court on March 31, 2023 in Washington, DC. Michel is on trial for his alleged participation in a campaign finance conspiracy. (Photo by Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images)

The jury in the trial found Michel guilty on a total of 10 counts. They include conspiracy and acting as an unregistered agent of a foreign government. The prosecution accused him of funneling money from Malaysian financer Jho Low into influencing various United States government actions. He allegedly pumped money into Barack Obama’s 2012 reelection campaign as well as influencing an extradition case on behalf of China during Donald Trump’s presidency.

The judge didn’t set a date for Pras’ sentencing, but he’s currently out of jail until that happens. He recently made headlines for dropping a Lauryn Hill diss track after the Fugees canceled several tour dates. Be on the lookout for further updates on Pras Michel on HotNewHipHop.
