Jada Pinkett Smith Fends Off Home Invasion By Herself: Report

February 10, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Jada Pinkett Smith, according to law enforcement sources who spoke to TMZ, just faced a pretty potentially harrowing experience in her L.A. home. Moreover, she reportedly scared off two men in hoodies who climbed up to her balcony to attempt to break into her home. When they saw that the actress was home a little before 8PM, her presence and her acknowledgement of the men made them run away. Then, police arrived at the scene, and the culprits had already sped off and could not be found while officials responded to the incident. It’s unclear whether this was a targeted attack against Will Smith’s partner or just a couple of guys trying to hit some nice homes in Los Angeles.

Furthermore, deputies apparently opened an attempted burglary report, and launched an investigation into Jada Pinkett Smith’s case. However, one aspect of this brush with danger that folks asked questions about is whether Will Smith was there. Cops don’t believe he was (although they can’t confirm for sure), and social media users took this as a chance to re-open the conversation around their relationship dynamic. You might recall how much of a hot topic this was towards the end of 2023, and how much we learned about confirmed or alleged developments in their romantic life.

Of course, this also involved people calling Jada Pinkett Smith out for her revelations about Tupac Shakur. That was among the spiciest and most gossip-fueling aspects of her Will Smith reveals last year, and one that isn’t fully resolved yet. Regardless of all this, we can imagine that this was a very scary situation, and that the Baltimore native would much rather deal with Internet drama than with burglars. Hopefully this doesn’t keep existing as a trend, as folks like Keanu Reeves and Lena Waithe faced similar incidents recently.

Meanwhile, the Smiths’ marriage seems stronger than it was in recent years, and that’s all that folks needed to hear. Maybe this is another situation that influences how they move, how they spend time together, or what their dynamic will look like. Only time will tell at the end of the day.

Playboi Carti, Kanye West, & Bianca Censori Link Up In L.A.

February 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Playboi Carti was spotted meeting up with Kanye West and his wife, Bianca Censori in Los Angeles over the weekend. The two appeared to be filming a music video together, along with Luka Sabbat. Ye hid his face from the paparazzi by rocking both a Michael Myers mask and a Jason Voorhees mask.

When OurGenerationMusic shared a picture of the group together, fans expressed their excitement for a collaboration. “Carti gotta link with a distributor for a release date,” one fan commented. Another was less optimistic: “At this point Carti just fk wit Ye on the strength, at this point I doubt if they make anything else together.”

Carti and West’s link-up comes after the two recently collaborated on the single, “2024.” Ye handled production on the song alongside ojivolta and earlonthebeat. While Carti is preparing for the release of a new album, so is West. He’s scheduled to drop his Ty Dolla Sign collaborative effort, Vultures, on February 9, 2024. That date is the latest after several delays to the project. Carti will be making an appearance on the tracklist with the song, “Fuk Sumn.” Other collaborators across the album include Chris Brown, Future, Freddie Gibbs, Quavo, Lil Durk, Young Thug, and more. Nicki Minaj was expected to appear on the song, “New Body,” but she rejected West’s clearance of the track. She explained online that she meant “no disrespect,” but that the “train has left the station.”

Quavo & Lana Del Rey Sighting Sparks Relationship Rumors

February 4, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Quavo and Lana Del Rey were spotted out in Los Angeles this week, sparking rumors of a potential relationship. The pair were spotted walking together and were later seen laughing in the back of a chauffeured vehicle. Could this be the next big musical power couple? It’s unclear how the couple met but safe to say, people are confused by the pairing.

“This wasn’t on my 2024 bingo card!” one X user wrote. “This is so random…watch them get married and have five kids,” added another. The link-up also led people to contemplate how it might affect their onward musical projects. “She gonna make a song about BBC and summer time sadness,” theorized one user. However, others were surprised it had taken her this long to date a Black man. “Honestly I always wondered why never [she] dated a black guy she always seem to be one of those white girls that do,” said someone else. However, rumors did once persist about Del Rey and A$AP Rocky after he starred in her “National Anthem” video.

Quavo Surprises Fans With Fashion Week Concert

— Rap Alert (@rapalert6) February 4, 2024

Del Rey is from New York City, where Quavo surprised fans during fashion week last year. The former Migos rapper drew a massive crowd in the center of New York City as the former Migos rapper pulled up for an impromptu concert. The Atlanta rapper is in the Big Apple for New York Fashion Week but decided to make some headlines away from the runways. In a clip uploaded to social media, Quavo could be heard performing “Hotel Lobby” to the assembled crowd. Furthermore, the concert appears to come courtesy of SideTalk NYC, the viral “one-minute street interview” show.

Fans were overjoyed by the surprise concert. Additionally, many were surprised (and excited) to see that True Religion, Quavo’s fashion line, may be making a return. “If you stopped wearing Tru because rappers did you corny ,” one person said. “Damn… true religion back??? I just roasted a Walmart worker for ….. nvm… Go crazy,” added another. However, some people pointed out the double standard that Quavo could do this and be fine but Kai Cenat was arrested for “the same thing”. On this note – the Quavo concert was probably planned, while the Cenat giveaway was not. Meanwhile, people were not fully rioting at Quavo’s concert.

Orlando Brown was reportedly kicked out of TAO in Los Angeles on Sunday night and berated staff on his way out. The incident was caught on video and published by TMZ the following morning. In the clip, the former That’s So Raven star screamed, “f*cking demon,” among other insults while filming the staff himself.

Sunday’s incident is far from the first time Brown has made headlines for his antics. Earlier this month, he sat down for an interview with Capone News in which he claimed to have “created” the Illuminati and was offended by people “devaluing” it. “If I’m Jesus I would think I did [create it], yeah,” Brown explained before going on a rant about being “best friends” with Diddy. Back in October, he also accused 2Pac’s accused killer, Keefe D, of being the same person as the rapper. “He is Tupac,” he declared. “Can’t arrest him if he’s the man that died!” Check out the latest clip of Brown circulating online below.

Brown made a name for himself by playing Eddie Thomas in That’s So Raven in the 2000s. He also appeared in Family Matters, Two of a Kind, and more shows over the years.

Britney Spears Allegedly Banned From Los Angeles Hotel For Swimming Topless

January 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Following the end of her controversial conservatorship, Britney Spears re-entered the public eye in a way she hadn’t been in years. Despite that increased attention though, it can sometimes be tricky to get a handle on what exactly she’s doing these days. She often shares posts to her Instagram but fans have repeatedly questioned the authenticity of some of the claims she’s made on the platform. There are also reportedly very few people in her inner circle according to reports published last year.

Now, a new report has emerged making the claim that Britney Spears was banned from a hotel. The place in question is a Four Seasons hotel in Los Angeles. According to Hollywood Unlocked, she was banned from the hotel “due to complaints about her ‘bizarre behavior’ and instances of stripping off by the pool.” Spears reportedly stays at the hotel often and the staff have allegedly been frustrated by some of her antics. While it’s just reports right now, there’s reason to believe they could be true. Spears has been long known to spend time at the hotel and even once shared a topless picture taken there to her Instagram. Check out the full report below.

In the comments, most of the fans seem to be on Britney’s side. “notice there no pic..not even blurred security vids nothing..hmm” one comment reads expressing doubt in the reports. Others just call for the often troubled pop star to be left alone. “She is LIVING! Leave her tf alone” and “LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE !!!!!” two additional highly upvoted comments read.

News about Britney has been pretty quiet in recent weeks. She’s continued to share new content to her social media for her fans. Additionally, Justin Timberlake recently began playing show again where he addressed some of the backlash from Spears’ memoir. What do you think of the reports that Britney Spears was banned from a Loa Angeles hotel? Do you think they’re true? Let us know in the comment section below.

January 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West and Bianca Censori were accosted by a stranger in Los Angeles on Monday in a video published by TMZ. While stepping out together on Melrose Place, a man approached them and repeatedly shouted “You ain’t sh*t, boy!!!”

“He thinks he’s so smart, so new, so nifty. You ain’t sh*t, boy!” he yelled as the couple got into a car. From there, the man called out Playboi Carti as well and labeled himself a God. It’s unclear who the man is or why he is upset with the rapper.

In addition to the incident, Ye also posted pictures of his wife getting into the car on social media. “WET,” he captioned the post, referencing the shirt she was wearing. Under that, she rocked tight black shorts with what appears to be a circular harness space at the front. In the comments section, fans appeared tired of seeing Censori take up West’s Instagram page in recent days. “We’ve seen enough of your naked wife bro give us some music,” one user wrote. Another added: “Kinda miss when your posts were abt tryna win Kim back.”

The incident comes as West continues to prepare for the release of his next album, Vultures, alongside his collaborator, Ty Dolla Sign. The project has faced numerous delays in recent months while dealing with clearance issues. The latest release date set for the project is February 9, 2024. Jpegmafia recently shared a photo of him meeting up with Ye, sparking rumors he’ll make an appearance on the tracklist. We’re not permitted to post the video of Ye and Censoir directly on HotNewHipHop, but if you’d like to see them, you can do so by clicking the “Via” link below.

Blueface’s Current Prison Experience Described In Detail

January 22, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Blueface is currently in L.A. County Jail following an arrest that occurred a couple of weeks ago at this point. Overall, Blue is currently in jail because he broke the terms of his probation. This all stems from a 2021 assault case that could have been a lot worse for the rapper. Regardless, he is now behind bars, and he is scheduled to be there for quite some time. In fact, it is believed that he will have to remain in jail until July. That means he will be away for a total of six months while drama continues to follow him.

Luckily for him, it appears as though his current stay in jail isn’t as bad as it could be. According to TMZ, Blueface has been put in a situation that allows him to enjoy more freedom compared to other inmates. Firstly, he is not in general population. Instead, he is in the “administrative segregation area.” Furthermore, he has his very own cell to himself and he is allowed to leave it for up to seven hours per day. Classes are being offered, and he can take part in them as he sees fit.

Blueface In L.A. County Jail

As for his commissary, there are plenty of options for him to enjoy. With contributions to said commissary, he can get himself donuts, pepperoni, cookies, bear claws, some tuna, cajun chicken ramen, and even some Texas beef. When he is out of his cell, there is a shared unit for the inmates in his wing. There is a library and even a television in this area of the prison. Needless to say, there isn’t a lack of entertainment for Blueface, who has appeared on television shows himself.

Let us know what you think of Blueface and his situation, in the comments section down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world. We will always keep you informed on your favorite artists and all of their upcoming projects.

Kanye West And Bianca Censori Bundle Up For Walk Around Los Angeles

January 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s been a turbulent time for Kanye West so far this year. Even though we’re less than two weeks into 2024 there’s already been plenty of trouble for the rapper. He reportedly owes nearly a million in taxes and is facing a new lawsuit after punching a fan seeking out an autograph. All the while texts from former collaborator and ally Pusha T leaked online leading fans to speculate that they have beef.

While all of this has been going on West has been spending plenty of time with girlfriend Bianca Censori. He’s been repeatedly posting pictures of her in some notable outfits, some of which are quite scant. In one particularly strange post, he promised that 2024 was a year for “no pants.” In the accompanying picture of Censori that came with the post, she lived up to that promise. Now the pair have been spotted making their way around Los Angeles in a new series of pictures shared by TMZ. Check out the pictures at the link below.

Kanye West And Bianca Censori Out And About Again

While all of this is going on, West has reportedly been working on a new album. The project is called Vultures and it’s a collaboration with Ty Dolla Sign. It was originally slated to be released in December but has gone through a series of new release dates ever since.

The album was supposed to be released tonight January 12, but that release date was eventually wiped from online copies of the record. Earlier today though, a new potential release date appeared. The album is now expected to be released next week on January 19. What do you think of new photos of Kanye West and Binaca Censori back in Los Angeles amid some cold weather? Let us know in the comment section below.

X4 Arrested, His Instagram Story Suggests

December 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Up-and-coming Los Angels rapper X4 recently took to his Instagram Story– or perhaps someone from his team did– to suggest that he’s currently in prison. Moreover, on a black background, his account simply posted “FREE X4,” and no other details about this alleged arrest emerged as of writing this article. For those unaware, the West Coast MC is among many other lyricists bubbling in the underground right now, one who’s poised to become a big name. For example, he recently released his debut mixtape The Most Important, on which he displayed some creative flows, charisma, and potential to hone his craft.

Furthermore, this arrest is especially disheartening amid the holiday season, as this is a time for family that unfortunately can’t stop harsher realities. Sadly, X4 is not alone in this struggle, as many other rappers and artists either faced arrests from authorities or are in the middle of legal trouble. One other recent instance of this is that of HoneyKomb Brazy, whom officials arrested just a few days ago on Wednesday (December 20). This reportedly relates to various gun and drug charges, and we’re still waiting to see whether this will halt this career or whether it can be sidestepped with accountability.

X4 Reportedly Arrested

A post shared by No Jumper (@nojumper)

Fortunately, we have other cases apart from X4 in rap’s legal space that took on more positive connotations, at least when only looking at an artist’s freedom and not the validity of their crimes. Quando Rondo was able to secure bond for $100K, and will reportedly now be on house arrest for the holidays. As such, we expect that he’ll be able to spend time with his loved ones at least a little bit and use this time to cool off and reflect. Hopefully the up-and-comer is able to achieve similar conditions, and then fully hold himself up to his accused behavior.

Meanwhile, other hip-hop figures seek to change the legal conditions that currently constrict them. There is perhaps no better contemporary example of this than NBA YoungBoy’s house arrest, which is still subject to modifications. Within the coming days or weeks, we might get more info on what happened with X4. For more news and the latest updates on that, keep checking in with HNHH.
