Doja Cat & Joseph Quinn Get Lovey-Dovey In London Amid Dating Rumors

August 20, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Things seem to be coming full circle for Doja Cat and Joseph Quinn as these two continue to fuel dating rumors. About two years ago, the Scarlet MC had the hots for Stranger Things 4 cast member, Joseph Quinn. While unbeknownst to him, The London, England actor was capturing the hearts of fans instead as Eddie Munson in his one and only season on the show. However, co-star Noah Schnapp tossed Doja Cat the alley-oop by passing the message on to Quinn. Sadly, things never came to be for them, as the rapper and singer went on to match up with J. Cyrus. A lot of her supporters have not been in love with their relationship, as the Twitch streamer has been accused of emotional abuse of his team.

Now, that relationship seems to be in the rearview mirror because Doja and Joseph have been linked once again. A couple of days ago, multiple reports from across the pond came through that they were spotted throughout London together. They attended an Osees concert at Dingwalls in Camden and were getting very touchy-feely. Then, another outlet says they saw them at a local pub in London getting a drink.

These bombshells were certainly sparking dating rumors, but now, things may be solidified. According to some new photo evidence from Pop Base via X, Doja Cat and Joseph Quinn can be seen holding hands while strolling down the streets of London. These two have not confirmed anything just yet, but it’s hard to imagine that these two aren’t an official item now. Fans seem to be believing it now too and it’s safe to say they are excited for Doja.

Cypress Hill To Bring Iconic “Simpsons” Joke To Life Alongside London Symphony Orchestra

July 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Today, musicians at the London Symphony Orchestra will make a joke from nearly three decades ago into a reality, and hip-hop fans can’t wait. The joke in question was featured on a 1996 episode of The Simpsons, and saw the group speculate that they had accidentally booked the orchestra, “possibly while high.” Ever since the episode aired, fans have been demanding a real link-up with the West Coast pioneers, a dream that will finally come true at the Royal Albert Hall.

It arrives just in time for the 30th anniversary of Cypress Hill’s 1992 album Black Sunday, and will feature performances of classics like “Insane in the Brain,” “I Wanna Get High,” and more. In a recent interview with BBC, B-Real expressed excitement over the eagerly awaited moment, crediting The Simpsons for giving them the opportunity of a lifetime.

“It’s been something that we’ve talked about for many years since the Simpsons episode first aired. So it’s very special for us. And it’s coming off the heels of our 30th anniversary for our Black Sunday album,” he told the outlet. “We’ve played a lot of historical venues throughout our career and stuff like that, but nothing as prestigious as this… We salute the Simpsons because if they had not written that episode, we probably wouldn’t be doing this.”

B-Real adds that the group has always strived to collaborate with “out-of-the-box artists,” despite any cultural differences that could come up. At rehearsals, for instance, the LSO reportedly thought that the term “Glock” was referring to a glockenspiel rather than a gun. What do you think of the London Symphony Orchestra performing Cypress Hill’s Black Sunday album to bring a Simpsons joke to life? Are you looking forward to hearing it?

Yasiin Bey, Earl Sweatshirt, And More Team Up For Gaza & Sudan Benefit Show In London

June 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Next week, various artists are scheduled to get together for a benefit concert in London. Proceeds from the performance will go to the people of Gaza and Sudan, regions currently experiencing crises. Yasiin Bey and Earl Sweatshirt are two of the artists currently on the lineup, along with Daniel Caesar, Blood Orange, King Krule, Clairo, Ramy Youssef, and several others. The concert will take place at London’s Troxy on July 4, and tickets are available for purchase now.

Poet and performer Mustafa shared a heartfelt message about the upcoming event on Instagram earlier this week, urging his followers to attend. “London! Sudan is calling. Gaza is calling. Every artist here is a hero of empathy, thank you for answering our call. Tickets are on sale at artistsforaid.org at 5pm today. There is a war, strike a chord, cry an answer,” he wrote.

As expected, the post has sparked a bit of a debate in his comments section, though most are praising him for supporting a good cause. This isn’t the first time fans have seen one of their favorite artists trying to help out, however. Earlier this month, Kehlani donated a whopping $550K in merch sales to the people of Palestine, Sudan, and Congo. She expressed immense gratitude for those who contributed to her fundraiser as she shared the news.

“555k. no words. thank you, to you. thank you @operationolivebranch thank you @nolcollective thank you @simsim.jpeg thank you God, thank YOU,” she captioned her Instagram post. “Free Palestine. free Congo free Sudan. land back. land back. land back.” What do you think of various artists getting together to host a benefit concert for the people of Gaza and Sudan? Will you be in attendance? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Travis Scott Asks Kai Cenat For A 24-Hour Live Stream Together During Europe Tour

June 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Travis Scott has been a fan of Kai Cenat’s content for a while now, so the idea of them doing a stream together seems pretty inevitable. Moreover, La Flame called Cenat during his recent livestream and proposed that they do a “24 hours in London” stream together. He even suggested that they go backstage for his July 11 sold-out stadium show in the city, indicating that the actual concert itself would be a big part of the stream. Overall, it’s nice to hear them be excited about meeting up regardless, but they might actually be onto something with this idea and could create something pretty cool to see for 24-hour stream standards.

Of course, Kai Cenat has done plenty of these in the past, similar to his sleepover streams with the likes of Kevin Hart and Druski. Still, there’s nothing like some killer hip-hop crossovers and fun, often comical content to engage fans and provide some awesome, albeit sometimes criticized moments for better or worse. Throwing such a big event as Travis Scott’s “Circus Maximus” tour on top of that just sounds like a massive recipe for success that we’re sure they’re probably ironing out the details of right now. Regardless, even if this 24-hour London stream doesn’t happen, we know that the two are in close contact and would likely always be down to do something together.

Travis Scott Calls Kai Cenat With An Idea

Elsewhere, folks might remember that Travis Scott has been more of a supporting character in the Kai Cenat universe. For example, he was one of many who called into 21 Savage’s stream with the Twitch giant, betting $10K on the Slaughter Gang CEO beating Kai in a game of 2K. They haven’t been the main event together yet, and spending 24 hours in London sounds like quite the bombastic way to do so. They’d get into enough antics on the streets touristing around, let alone at a concert.

Meanwhile, we know from Travis Scott’s recent arrest that he’s a bit of a party animal, so we’re sure that this stream would be great fun. Hopefully they work everything out before July 11 and they can make this one of the biggest rap crossover streams so far. After all, it’s not every day that Kai Cenat gets to match his coverage and content with something as big as a backstage pass to a blockbuster show. What’s next, a studio session stream?

Nicki Minaj Hypes Wireless Fest Set, Explains Why She Chose It Over Another “Pink Friday” Tour Stop In London

February 25, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Nicki Minaj has hyped her upcoming headline set at Wireless Fest in London. “Instead of doing another arena show in London after we sold out in the first week, I opted to do Wireless Festival. This year’s show will be a billion times more special, creative, beautiful, cohesive, ugh! I’m so excited. I’d like to tell you guys thank you in advance. Last year was so meaningful but won’t compare. Just wait & see,” Minaj wrote on Instagram. Minaj has been a regular feature at Wireless for over a deacde.

Wireless Fest takes place in London’s historic Finsbury Park this July. Other headliners include Future, 21 Savage, and Doja Cat. Minaj is currently set to play the O2 Arena in London on May 28. Are you attending the Pink Friday 2 Tour? Are you excited? Let us know in the comments.

Meanwhile, A video of Anne Hathaway dancing to “Anaconda” has gone viral amongst Minaj’s fans. The video, taken from an Instagram story, shows Hathaway getting low to the iconic part of Minaj’s catalog before bashfully waving off praise from the gathered crowd. However, the Barbz in particular have gone absolutely wild for the video. Some praised Hathaway for her taste, others for her dance moves. Meanwhile, a number of other fans have pointed to it as evidence of Minaj’s legacy.

Of course, it’s been a rough couple weeks for Minaj. After being shaded on Megan Thee Stallion‘s “HISS”, Minaj hit back with a diss track of her own, “Big Foot“. However, the general consensus was that she had lost the beef. Not only were people now questioning her many dubious links to sex offenders, but “Big Foot” flopped in comparison to “HISS”. Furthermore, “Big Foot” even debuted below Ben Shapiro’s terrible rap debut on the Billboard Hot 100.

Bobby Shmurda Gets Into Fight After London Club Performance

February 18, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Bobby Shmurda loves to party, and if you didn’t know that, just look at his wild Dubai Christmas celebrations and you’ll see how deep this goes. However, it’s not always peaches and cream for him out in the clubbing world, even when he’s tapped to perform. Moreover, the rapper and his crew recently hit up the Proud Cabaret in London, England in the early hours of Sunday (February 18). According to TMZ, he performed two songs at around 4AM local time, and then got into an intense argument with the club’s promoter that resulted in a whole lot of pushes, shoves, and him allegedly spitting on someone in the crowd.

Furthermore, it seems like Bobby Shmurda and company left promptly after this, and nothing else transpired as the night went on at the Proud Cabaret. In addition, no reports of injuries emerged from this, so it seems like it was all just a brief scuffle and nothing more. Fortunately, this isn’t a very common occurrence when you look at the track record, as there are a lot of other instances of antics that are less combative. For example, you may remember a viral clip of him hilariously falling down at a club last year.

But the New York MC’s notable behavior isn’t reserved for just the club; the media allegedly got a fair share of it, too. “Yo, I waited… I think, like, ten hours for Bobby Shmurda when he just got out,” DJ Akademiks recently claimed. “I slept at the studio waiting for this n***a. They kept telling me, ‘Oh, his jet is coming.’ They’re like, ‘Yo, when he lands, he wants to pull right up there.’ I’m like, ‘Can’t you just tell me when he’s actually even here?’ They’re like, ‘Nah, yo, just be on standby.’ Alright… The artist feels like the business doesn’t exist without them. And partially, they’re right. But because of that inflated self-importance, like, what intuitively happens is that they pretty much start devaluing everyone’s contributions. Yeah, of course, [it’s ego s**t.] Most egotistical -– I can’t figure out no other genre where there’s a complete selfishness.”

Meanwhile, he does have a pretty good relationship with the press, participating in interviews often despite what this tale would have you assume. During a recent sit-down, the 29-year-old spoke on his imperfect commitment to celibacy and how he’s choosing to live his life these days. We’re glad that in this case (video of which you can see with the “Via” link below), it was just a quick confrontation that didn’t get any more serious. For more news and the latest updates on Bobby Shmurda, stay posted on HNHH.

Morgan Wallen Links Up With Jose Canseco’s Daughter, Relationship Rumors Swirl

December 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Morgan Wallen, who has dominated the music charts this year, is now the subject of relationship rumors regarding the daughter of a baseball great. Wallen was spotted at the five-star Chiltern Firehouse restaurant and hotel in London’s Mayfair district alongside Josie Canseco, daughter of A’s great Jose Canseco. The pair reportedly had a “great time” for around two hours before Wallen left, per TMZ. It’s unclear how the pair became acquainted.

Wallen’s dating life has been something of a mystery since he split from ex-fiancee Katie Smith. He had brief flings with Paige Lorenze and Megan Moroney. However, TMZ was unable to ascertain if his dinner with Canseco was anything serious or just two friends grabbing a meal. Wallen has a son, Indigo, with Smith. Meanwhile, Canseco’s exes include Brody Jenner and Logan Paul. It remains to be seen if and when they will link up again in the near future.

Morgan Wallen Links Up With Jimmy Butler

However, Canseco isn’t the first famous face relating to the sports world that Wallen has hit up this year. Jimmy Butler shared a brief moment with Wallen after a concert Wallen did in Toronto in September. Obviously, that’s a long way for Butler to come given his base in Miami. However, the two men were clearly very happy to see each other. They reportedly chatted for a few minutes before going their separate ways after the show.

As mentioned, Wallen has been absolutely crushing it this year. His album, One Day At A Time, spent 15 weeks at #1 on the Billboard 200. That included an 11-week run between March and June. He has also spent #16 weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Last Night”. That includes a dominant 10-week run between May and July. The song most recently topped the chart for two weeks in August.

21 Savage’s Stage Exit Goes Viral As Fans Clown The Rapper

December 2, 2023 by newhiphopnews

21 Savage has gone viral as he continues to tour Europe. At the end of his first-ever concert in London, Savage awkwardly jogged off stage. What made the sight all the more bizarre was that Savage kept yelling “Keep screaming till I leave the stage” to get the audience hyped up. The way he runs off stage is very reminiscent of the way that Weasel runs in The Suicide Squad – it’s all limbs and awkward gaits. Check out the hilarious video below.

Fans were quick to (lovingly) clown the rapper. “Everything about this is hilarious,” one person wrote on social media. “This is why Savage the best, he always doing funny sh-t like this,” added another. Savage has received an electric welcome across Europe as he embarks on his first-ever international tour. Finally getting his green card has allowed Savage to plan concerts beyond the US for the first time in his musical career.

Furthermore, the night before his concert, Savage received a huge welcome at the Emirates Stadium as Arsenal honored the British-born rapper. Arsenal presented Savage with a custom #21 Savage jersey. The #21 jersey is currently worn by Fábio Vieira, who joined the Gunners from Porto in 2022. After the game, Savage also linked up with Emil Smith Rowe, Arsenal’s 23-year-old midfielder. Also following the game, the Emirates Stadium made sure to play Savage’s bar from “Circo Loco” about the team winning the Premier League.

Savage couldn’t have picked a better game to attend. Arsenal dismantled French side Lens, scoring six goals to officially win their Champions League group. However, Arsenal have one more match in the group stage. The Gunners travel to the Netherlands to face second-place PSV in mid-December. Furthermore, Arsenal currently sits at the top of the Premier League. A late goal at away against Brentford over the weekend moved them one point clear of Manchester City.

21 Savage Invites Central Cee, J Hus, And Others On Stage To Celebrate Return To London

December 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Last month, 21 Savage took off on his first-ever European tour. It came after a multi-year fight to establish his permanent American citizenship to ensure that he would be allowed to return to the country once the tour finished. A few years ago, fans were shocked when Savage was arrested by ICE and the information went public that he was originally born in the UK. Now, he’s finally making his return to the country with a massive show at London’s O2 Arena.

He’s been on tour across Europe all month where his shows have been getting rave reviews. He made a splash with his debut Paris show which featured a number of high-profile guests and throughout the entire month he’s been playing hyped shows across the continent. He even took the time between shows to work on a music video. Clips made the round earlier this week of Savage in Brixton shooting a music video with a number of extras on motorcycles. But he seems to have saved his biggest show for last.

21 Savage also racked up 5 nominations for the 2024 Grammys. Four of them come from his collaborative album with Drake Her Loss.

He also scored yet another nomination for his Burna Boy collaboration “Sittin’ On Top Of The World.” What do you think of the guests 21 Savage brought out during his first ever show in London?
