Lil Durk Flexes Louis Vuitton Outfit Worth $40K

October 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Lil Durk’s come a long way from underground drill credibility to hip-hop superstardom, and you can tell by how he carries himself as a figure. Moreover, he is pretty well-known for his style, or at least his affinity for luxury clothing, items, and an overall cash-heavy lifestyle. However, maybe some of the Chicago MC’s fans didn’t expect for him to be the type of person to blow $40K on an outfit. But it’s clear from a recent video that he’ll do anything to get the drip he wants, and definitely knows how to rock it with a lot of confidence. Furthermore, The Voice showed off a head-to-toe Louis Vuitton look that cost him 40 racks, and we can’t blame him for wanting to show it off.

For example, from a pure fashion standpoint, this looks pretty nice: it’s color-coordinated, subtle from afar, but very extravagant upon closer inspection. Lil Durk’s LV overalls and bucket hat are covered in jewels that shine as bright as his many heavy chains. With simple white sneakers and a white T-shirt to top it off, he actually came through with a pretty nice look… even if it’s a bit over-the-top for such an uncomplicated vision. Regardless, this is what the “Pelle Coat” rapper wore to the Morehouse & Spellman College Homecoming on Thursday (October 25) in Atlanta, Georgia to shine on the crowd.

From previous live performances, we already know that he often brings some solid style to the stage. For example, Lil Durk recently held another installment in the Amazon Music Live series alongside Machine Gun Kelly, during which his Chicago sweatshirt repped for his city. In addition, he surprised fans at Chi-Town’s Soldier Field with a halftime show along with local children. The 31-year-old often puts on pretty special live spectacles, whether it’s for his style, his stage presence, or his in-the-moment raps.

Meanwhile, what would you rate Smurk’s fit out of ten? Was this a proper look for the standards of Louis Vuitton or did he miss the mark on some things? In any case, let us know in the comments down below. Also, keep checking in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on Lil Durk.

LeBron James Arrives At NBA Opener In $28K Pharrell-Designed Louis Vuitton Outfit

October 25, 2023 by newhiphopnews

LeBron James was dripped out ahead of the start of his 21st season in the NBA. His pregame outfit was a $28,000 worth of Louis Vuitton, mostly from his good friend Pharrell’s Spring/Summer 2024 collection. According to TMZ, that included a “$5k damoflage tweed chic collarless jacket, $1,250 pants, and $1,220 LV checker derby kicks,” as well as an $11K Speedy Bandouliere 40 and a $9500 briefcase. Anyone wanting to replicate LeBron’s look can do so when the collection goes on presale in December.

He wasn’t the only one rocking a signature look, however. Nuggets star Michael Porter Jr. rolled up in a signed Peyton Manning Broncos jersey. Meanwhile, Peyton Watson was embodying Coach Prime in another show of Colorado love. Elsewhere, sharpshooter Aaron Gordon hit up Ball Arena in a burgundy vest and shorts combo. The NBA heavily marketed the game as a rematch of the Western Conference Finals and as a definitive statement on the power players in the conference this season.

LeBron Scores 21 To Open Season 21, Lakers Fall

However, it wasn’t the season opener the Lakers were hoping for. While LeBron led the team with 21 points, they were soundly beaten by the defending champion Nuggets 119-107. Of particular note was Anthony Davis putting up a goose egg in the second half. This was despite Davis hyping the matchup as a revenge game for the Western Conference Finals earlier this year. Davis had gotten off to a hot start, scoring 17 points in the first half.

Overall, the Lakers once again proved no match for the Western Conference preseason favorites. Nikola Jokić opened the season with a triple-double as three Nuggets starters put up at least 20 points. Beyond LeBron, no Laker put up more than 18 points, leading Denver to extend their win streak against the Lakers to six. The Suns are up next for the Lakers, with Phoenix coming off a win against the Warriors. How do you think the conference is going play out this season? Let us know in the comments.

Usher has a lot in his arsenal: songwriting ability, gorgeous vocals, an array of hits, and impeccable style. For the recent Louis Vuitton show at Paris Fashion Week, you know that he just had to show his skills in the last category. Moreover, the R&B superstar pulled up in a beautiful black kilt, which caused a lot of conversation among trolls on the Internet mad about gender-fusing fits. In addition, he kept the monochrome look up with shiny loafers and an LV blazer, under which he wore a white button-up shirt. In addition, the Chattanooga-raised artist donned puffy socks and what looks like a silver rose-adorned headpiece to complete the look.

Furthermore, now that we mentioned all of his capabilities, it’s going to be exciting to see them all come together very soon. Usher and the NFL recently announced that he will headline the Super Bowl halftime show next year in Las Vegas, which is a great move considering his wide-spanning discography and showmanship. Fans are very excited to see how he pulls the setlist together, as well as how it will visually play out when it comes to outfits and stage design.

Recently, Usher recalled how Jay-Z was the one who let him know that he’d be getting on the biggest stage in the U.S. “But when I got this call… he said, ‘It’s time, it’s magic time. You know, it’s time for you to have that moment,’” the 44-year-old told Zane Lowe. “I’m like, ‘What are you talking about?’ He’s like, ‘The Super Bowl.’ I’m like, ‘Oh, you ready? Absolutely.’

“And it was like this was destined to happen,” he continued. “I think that everything that led up to that moment, going to Las Vegas for my residency for the last two years. The legacy, obviously, that is the music, the celebration of entertainment in that place. It’s the City of Lights. You know, it’s always been a place where entertainers go and find love and passion, connection to their fans. So for the Super Bowl to have made its way to Las Vegas while we were in Vegas, having such an amazing two years…” For more news and the latest updates on Usher, stay logged into HNHH.

Pharrell Speaks On Being Shocked By Louis Vuitton Appointment

August 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Pharrell is currently the lead designer over at Louis Vuitton, which is a huge accomplishment. Of course, he takes over from the likes of Virgil Abloh, who was an absolute legend. From Off-White to Louis Vuitton, Abloh made a massive impact on the fashion world. Overall, he remains a revered designer whose influence will never go away. That said, some were surprised that Pharrell got the job at Louis Vuitton. However, he has been making the most of it and has already come through with his very first collection.

Recently, Pharrell spoke about his role with Louis Vuitton and how he was just as surprised as everyone else about the appointment. He describes a conversation with LV CEO Pietro Beccari who was aggressive in offering him the role. Regardless, he was happy to accept. “It wasn’t an interview or anything,” Pharrell explained. “It was like, ‘Will you accept this position? Will you accept this appointment?’ I’m looking at the water and I’m just like, ‘What?’”

Pharrell Reveals How He Got The Position

However, Pharrell did not that he was surprised Nigo wasn’t given a chance. “I’ve been championing him for a minute,” Williams revealed. “And whenever me and Alexandre [Arnault] talk about LV, we would always just talk about different people. I’ve always been in the background, just advising. I never thought that it would be me.”

Overall, it is going to be interesting to witness Pharrell’s journey in this new role. We cannot wait to see what he produces in the future. Let us know your thoughts on his work with Louis Vuitton, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the fashion and music industries.

Pharrell Williams Says He Feels Like He’s Known Beyonce For “Many Lives”

August 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Pharrell Williams has opened up about his deep relationship with Beyoncé. His comments came while discussing the jumpsuit he helped create for her Renaissance World Tour. Pharrell currently serves as the Men’s Creative Director for Louis Vuitton. Furthermore, he helped create a bejeweled jumpsuit that Beyoncé wore during her current tour. While doing that, he also spoke about the connection he feels with the music superstar. Beyoncé and Jay-Z showed out in Paris earlier this year to support Pharrell’s first Paris Fashion Week show as the LV Creative Director.

“Beyoncé is a rare spirit,” Pharrell began. “The idea that I know her as a human being and have known her for all this time and our connection, I feel like I’ve known this person for many lives.” Of the jumpsuit, Pharrell said he wanted to create something totally unique and totally Beyoncé. “The idea here was to give her something that allows her body to set the template,” he stated. “Not only its shape and its form, which is basically informed by her spirit. Your body is literally a spiritual encasement. Continue to celebrate her shape and her form, but also make her feel free at the same time.”

Pharrell also revealed that he had created outfits for Blue Ivy as well. Blue has accompanied her mother for much of the tour’s North American leg. Furthermore, the 11-year-old has earned widespread praise for her dancing and other on-stage antics. However, it’s not been exclusively positive news from the tour.

A stagehand has been called out after a video from Beyoncé’s show in Boston appeared to show the man grope the singer’s ass during her performance. As she was being lowered into a large vehicle that served as part of the set design, the production assistant is very clearly seen his hand resting on the royal backside. This sent the internet into a frenzy, with many people joking that the man was getting fired. These reactions were exacerbated by additional video of Julius, Beyoncé’s longtime security guard, chasing after the singer after the incident.

Travis Scott Shows Off $120K Louis Vuitton Trunk From Pharrell Auction

July 12, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Travis Scott recently took to Instagram to show off some pricey Louis Vuitton to his followers. In an Instagram Story posted today (July 12), he showcases a rainbow LV trunk, which he reportedly purchased at Pharrell’s auction last year. The auction featured various pieces of clothing, jewelry, and more, bringing in over $5 million. A Travis Scott fan page was able to link the trunk posted by Travis to the one auctioned by Pharrell last October. The trunk sold for $121,250.

Pharrell’s auctioned LV trunk isn’t the only notable arm candy Travis has been spotted with recently. In the past few months, Travis has been spotted various times alongside security personnel holding a briefcase labeled UTOPIA. Some fans think that the highly-anticipated upcoming album will be released later this month. Earlier this week, he announced that he’d be performing at the the pyramids in Egypt on July 28. Some believe this will also be the day that he’ll finally drop the LP.

Travis Scott has continued to tease UTOPIA, as well as the eagerly-awaited LP’s features. Previously, it was speculated that The Weeknd would appear on the album, after he shared a photo on Instagram alongside the briefcase. Recently, this news appeared to be confirmed by the co-founder of XO Records. The album is also believed to feature Young Thug, Westside Gunn, Swae Lee, and more.

Pharrell has been showing off his own Louis Vuitton lately, being photographed with a bright yellow speedy bag reportedly worth $1 million. The “millionaire speedy” is part of Pharrell’s first collection as the creative director of menswear at LV. In June, he revealed that “Every part on the bag is [gold].” “The teeth on the zipper is gold, all the hardware, every rivet. This is gold. Obviously diamonds. This chain is real. It has a real strap but you know — so be it, so be it,” he explained.. He debuted the collection last month at a runway show which was attended by countless celebrity guests.

Pharrell Flexes On Kendrick Lamar With “Millionaire Speedy” Bag

July 9, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Recently, photos that show Pharrell Williams flexing his Louis Vuitton Speedy are circulating the internet. In the photos, Pharrell shows the bag to Kendrick Lamar, appearing to be in the process of explaining details. The bag, dubbed the “Millionaire Speedy,” is reportedly worth $1 million. Kendrick seems to be impressed by the expensive, bright yellow duffle. The bag is meant to “[conjure] the attitude and hustle mentality of Canal Street in an everyday icon conceived for every walk of life,” according to a LV press release.

“Every part on the bag is [gold],” Pharrell explained in June, “This is different.” He continued, “This is called the Millionaire. It comes with millionaires.” “Every bit of the bag is gold like the zipper,” he also says, “the teeth on the zipper is gold, all the hardware, every rivet. This is gold. Obviously diamonds. This chain is real. It has a real strap but you know — so be it, so be it.”

Pharrell Shows Off His Million Dollar Louis Vuitton

The striking bag is part of Pharrell’s recently-debuted Louis Vuitton Spring-Summer 2024 menswear collection. He showcased the collection, his first as the new LV men’s creative director, last month during Paris Fashion Week. Since then, Pharrell has been photographed carrying the bag, which is “cut from crocodile leather and affixed with both a chunky gold chain and diamond padlock, all handmade in one of LV’s fairly young leather ateliers,” various times. It’s that the Neptunes artist is proud of the flashy, and pricey, creation.

At the end of last month, an independent fashion designer came forward to accuse Pharrell of stealing one her designs. The designer, Kellie Ford, had previously shared a TikTok where she’s seen turning a Louis Vuitton shopping bag into a purse. The TikTok went viral in 2021, and Pharrell just recently shared his similar design at his debut as LV men’s creative director. Though it’s unconfirmed whether or not Pharrell took inspiration from Ford’s creation, it’s clear that the two bags look pretty similar.

Pharrell Williams Stuns With Family In Photo From His Louis Vuitton Show

July 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

As Louis Vuitton’s new creative director for menswear, Pharrell Williams ins enjoying a lot of success right now. Most recently, for Paris Fashion Week, the Virginia creative hosted a star-studded show of his collection, making for quite the luxurious affair. However, the biggest stars present were none other than the 50-year-old’s family. His wife Helen Lasichanh attended, along with their eldest son Rocket and their five-year-old triplets. Of course, they all attended the show in matching tuxedos, which was as fashionable as it was adorable. With a bright future ahead for the designer at LV, we can only expect many more cute family pics to come.

However, that’s not to say that the Neptunes producer’s tenure hasn’t been without its slight hiccups. For example, an independent fashion designer claimed that Pharrell and Louis Vuitton stole her shopping bag-turned-luxury bag idea for their new collection. While many argued that it wasn’t her place to profit off of the brand in the first place (although it was never clarified that she sold them), hopefully they at least acknowledge her creativity. After all, some of the biggest names in fashion got their start by revitalizing and reimagining items from the biggest brands at the time.

Pharrell Matches With His Family

Regardless, the PFW Louis Vuitton show also brought about some waves in music, albeit for relatively unrelated reasons. Pusha T and No Malice previewed an unreleased Clipse single at the show, on which Push took apparent shots at Jim Jones. He responded with a diss track of his own, and now it’s up in the air whether the feud will continue with a response from Pusha. As such, whether you’re a fan of fashion, music, or rap beef, there was something to admire about Pharrell’s first event leading LV.

Meanwhile, the “Down In Atlanta” star is holding on to that title with some humility. When Swizz Beatz called him the new Louis Vuitton Don, he declined that moniker and stood by Kanye West still claiming that spot. Instead, he called himself the Pupil King, and if he’s still learning and growing, the future can only hold even more exciting things for him. With that in mind, log back into HNHH for the latest news and updates on Pharrell Williams.

Rihanna Stuns In Pharrell’s First Louis Vuitton Video: Watch

June 26, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Rihanna is one of the most fashionable artists in the entire world. Overall, she has been to numerous fashion shows and even has her own lines of clothes. For instance, Savage x Fenty has been a huge name in the business. However, as we reported over the weekend, she is stepping down from the line and has handed over the CEO reigns to someone else. Hillary Super will take over, marking a huge shift after five years with the brand. Either way, it is clear that Riri has plenty of other projects on the horizon.

Additionally, as you can imagine, Rihanna was just in Paris for Fashion Week. This edition of Fashion Week was particularly huge as it marked Pharrell’s first collection with Louis Vuitton. The Spring/Summer 2024 show was a huge one as there were performances from Jay-Z, Pharrell, and even new music from Clipse. Riri and ASAP Rocky were on hand for this show, and their presence was most definitely felt. Now, however, Rihanna is front and center in the latest Louis Vuitton campaign video.

Rihanna In Another Campaign

This new video was posted on YouTube today by the official Louis Vuitton channel. Throughout the 41-second clip, Rihanna can be seen in the street repping the new LV line, while also carrying some handbags. In a statement, the brand said the campaign was “created to alter perceptions, challenge history, and evolve an existing legacy. Personified by a pregnant Rihanna – a symbol of human empowerment and the quintessential everyday icon – the men’s campaign reflects the re-contextualization at the core of Pharrell Williams’ approach to the maison.”

For those of you out there who enjoy high fashion, this new campaign is probably very exciting. It will be interesting to see what else Pharrell is able to do over the coming years. Let us know your first impressions of Pharrell’s first LV collection, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.
