Kanye West Fans Think He’s Aging Backwards Thanks To Impressive New Photos

October 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West has been spending most of his time in Tokyo lately working on his upcoming album, Bully. According to Touré, he’s perfecting the project in a hotel room, and living an “upper-class homeless” lifestyle. He appears to be enjoying it thoroughly too, as evidenced by new clips and photos making their rounds online.

In them, Ye and his wife Bianca Censori are seen walking down the street in all-black outfits. Censori stunned per usual, but the Chicago rapper’s appearance was what’s grabbed fans’ attention the most. Social media users note that he looks far younger than usual, even compared to other recent photos.

“That’s 2016 Kanye and you can’t tell me otherwise,” one Twitter/X user jokes. “Kanye aging backward,” another says. Someone else even compared three different photos of Ye taken at different times. “Kanye has started using AI on himself cuz there is no way this is the same person,” they insisted. At the time of writing, it remains unclear exactly why Ye is looking better these days. It could potentially have something to do with his current lifestyle, however. Reportedly, he’s spending a lot of time by himself working on Bully.

“It’s a concept album and he plans to be the only producer on it. Traditionally, Kanye is the product of a team, there are producers helping him, there are writers helping him, he comes with the big ideas but there’s others in,” Touré revealed earlier this month. “Not this time. This time, Kanye is gonna make this pretty much by himself. A fresh chapter in his life because in Tokyo he can be who he wants to be… This album is 100% him.” What do you think of fans insisting that Kanye West is “aging backward” after spotting him out in Tokyo? Do you agree that he’s looking great these days? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Megan Thee Stallion Flaunts Her Figure In New Instagram Thirst Trap

October 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Megan Thee Stallion might have a new mixtape coming soon, but that doesn’t mean she’s ignoring her Instagram feed in the meantime. Moreover, she recently treated fans to some new hot shots in an all-black ensemble comprised of a tight button-up, leggings, and new short hair. The Houston femcee had folks like SZA, Halsey, and more thirsting for her in the comments section. With how defined her figure looks in the photos, it’s not hard to see why. Also, Tina Snow’s always been a big sharer online, so these are just the results of her many workout videos and life updates.

But elsewhere, fans are dragging Megan Thee Stallion into seemingly unrelated scenarios, such as Nicki Minaj’s recent denial that she got Megan’s former best friend Kelsey Harris to model for her shoe line amid their beef. “The fact that @TheShadeRoom posted this LIE 5 days ago & im just now finding out,” Nicki Minaj wrote on Twitter on Sunday (October 6). “chiiiiii LOL!!!!!!! I love being booked & busy. ‘Models for my collection’? She posted a photo in my sneakers. Me, nor my company knew anything about it until she posted it.

“So she did what many ppl did when they received my sneakers, they posted a photo in them,” Nicki Minaj continued about Megan Thee Stallion’s former friend. “Kelsey def went all the way out with this professional looking backdrop tho. But she is in no way professionally connected to my sneaker brand. No matter what yall pay the Shaderoom to post, plz remember that I did a sold out record breaking tour. And was then ASKED to do a 2nd leg. Too busy & too successful for the clownery. […] Btw, did Kelsey not tell them she wasn’t modeling for the line barbz? Did she just let them think that? I gotta get caught up yall.”

Meanwhile, an upcoming documentary series on Megan Thee Stallion should give fans an interesting insight into her many endeavors. Whether it will hit with fans obviously remains to be seen, but we’d bet on it being a compelling look. Let’s see what other Instagram antics Meg gets into, whether they’re sultry or not.

Doja Cat Fans Can’t Get Enough Of Her Messy New Look

July 11, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Doja Cat got right back to social media after an Iggy Azalea-dissing hack, and showed off a new look for fans to fawn over. Moreover, she shared a couple of lo-fi snapshots to her Instagram page showing off a ruffled new haircut both with and without what seems like a night vision filter, and her followers were quick to praise the style. Just look at the comments of the IG post below and you’ll see a whole lot of fire emojis, impressed statements, and remarks about the Los Angeles creative’s beauty and fashion sense. We’re sure that another revamp is just around the corner, as she never likes to box herself in for too long.

Furthermore, Doja Cat’s sensibilities in the wardrobe world extend to her surprising skills at quickly and engagingly dealing with outfit malfunctions mid-performance. For example, she recently turned a faulty mini-skirt into a mini-part of a concert, ripping it off as she performed and putting that frustrated energy into her vocal performance. Of course, mishaps like these aren’t necessarily uncommon across performers. But few artists can say they handled them as uniquely and as entertainingly as this example.

However, one thing that artists usually can’t control when they’re on stage performing is how much the crowd knows their material or is willing to engage with it live. During her recent tour, Doja Cat also expressed some visible frustration with how a festival crowd wasn’t singing along with her. We’ve all seen headlines about rappers and musicians acting out at live performances when it comes to the crowd, and some are more measured while others go all out. But it doesn’t change the bizarre feeling it must give, so we can’t blame them for letting that show every once in a while.

Meanwhile, Doja Cat will probably continue to switch up her styles despite some folks’ criticism, including a recent Azealia Banks rant against her. No troll has been able to stop her so far, and we don’t see a change on its way anytime soon. The question is whether these new looks will pair up with new material or if it’s just an unrelated personal style choice. It’s a killer one, so we’re not mad either way.

21 Savage Looks Different In New Photos, Fans Think Latto Is Responsible

March 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Earlier this week, DJ Khaled took to Instagram to tease his new album, which will feature various high-profile artists. Drake, Travis Scott, 21 Savage, and more are expected to appear on the upcoming LP. To get fans excited he shared some fun photos of him and 21 Savage, cruising around on motorcycles and cooking something up in the studio. Followers aren’t entirely focused on the DJ’s new project, however. Countless users took to the comments section to weigh in on 21 Savage’s appearance, arguing that he looks different than usual.

While some insist that the difference in his appearance is simply due to his age, others think his rumored boo’s cooking skills could be to blame. “Latto whatchu feeding him,” one fan asks in 2cool2bl0g’s comments section. “Why does 21 look like that now,” another wonders under Khaled’s original post. Anyone else see that?”

Of course, it’s fun to imagine that Latto throwing down in the kitchen is what led to the rapper’s transformation. With that being said, however, the duo has yet to even confirm that they’re an item. Moreover, many fans note that it’s completely normal for one’s look to change over the years, as nobody stays the same forever.

While 21 Savage and Latto’s rumored relationship continues to spark debate, he seemingly debuted a new tattoo earlier this year, which many commenters believe is a tribute to the “Put It On Da Floor” performer. The tattoo, which is located behind one of his ears, says Latto’s birth name, “Alyssa.” Latto is speculated to have a similar tattoo of his name “Sheyaa,” also behind her ear. What do you think of social media users blaming Latto for 21 Savage’s apparent new look? Do you agree that she’s responsible? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Donald Glover’s New Look At The Oscars Draws Mixed Reactions From Fans

March 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Over the weekend celebrities gathered in bulk for the Oscars. Though the event is meant to highlight the biggest and best films of the year, music was well represented. The Academy gives out an award for Best Original Song, which saw Billie Eilish, Jon Batiste, and Mark Ronson all performing. Eilish ultimately took home the award for the second time already in her short career. But one place where musicians were even more well-represented were some of the after-parties.

As you’d expect, a lot of focus was placed on outfits and looks. Halle Bailey showed up looking stunning even as her film The Little Mermaid failed to secure any nominations. Ice Spice looked great in a black see-through dress but still found herself having to defend her fashion choices online. But Childish Gambino was one of the most surprising, as he debuted an entirely new look. For the event, he showed off a new haircut, substituted his full beard for just a mustache, and donned a red AMIRI suit. While the fit was attention-grabbing, once the surprise of the change wore off fans had mixed reactions. Check out Glover’s new look from over the weekend below.

To say fans were divided about the look would be an understatement. Some thought it was hilariously wrong and tried to crack jokes. “That n*gga look like he made a fortune off of selling corduroy seatbelts” a tweet about the fit reads. Others thought that some of the vintage elements of the fit worked well for Glover in particular. “This outfit matches his name perfectly, don’t know how to explain it” another comment reads.

Following recent comedic film success, Donald Glover floated the idea of returning to stand-up comedy to his fans. It’s been a long journey for the comedian stepping into the worlds of music and acting but many were excited by the prospect of his return to comedy. What do you think of Donald Glover’s new look? Are you hoping that a change in style may signify some new material from the rapper and singer soon? Let us know in the comment section below.

Frank Ocean Shows Off New Look: Fans React

January 31, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Frank Ocean showed off a new look on social media, Wednesday, by posting a selfie featuring a new hairstyle. Fans have been sharing some praise for the look in response; however, most just want new music from the elusive singer. He hasn’t released a new project since 2016’s Blonde.

“He been out the way for 7 years and that’s the longest his hair got?” one fan joked in the comments when The Neighborhood Talk shared the picture. Another wrote: “I didn’t even realize I missed this man until I saw this photo..” Other users complained more seriously about the lack of new music from Ocean. “Man this n***a must’ve just said forget music. We been waiting for damn near a DECADE!” one wrote.

Ocean teased having a new album in store when he performed at Coachella in 2023. “It’s been so long, but I have missed you. I want to talk about why I’m here, because it’s not because of a new album. It’s because… not that there’s not a new album, just like… but there’s not right now,” he said on stage during the performance. Outside of the announcement, the show didn’t go over well with fans. It started an hour late, featured no new music, and ended early due to the festival’s curfew. A live stream of the set was also cut last-minute. Amid all of the complaints, he canceled a second performance at the event the following weekend. Further news didn’t come until November of last year when Ocean teased a snippet of a new song on his Instagram Story.

YFN Lucci Looks Unrecognizable In New Mugshot From Prison

January 28, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It looks like YFN Lucci finally got that haircut that the court promised him before his trial a couple of weeks ago. Moreover, a new mugshot surfaced of him online on Sunday (January 28), and people were very quick to comment on his bald head after sporting a long and wild look while in the pen. “tf, ain’t this n***a have a full head of dreads like yesterday [crying emoji],” one fan wrote under DJ Akademiks’ Instagram coverage of the picture. “N***a went from Kodak to magic Johnson overnight,” another added, while others had some more pop culture references to give. “He Look like CJ from Grove St [crying laughing emoji],” a user joked.

Furthermore, this follows the news that YFN Lucci received a 20-year sentence in his RICO case. However, given that he will be eligible for parole in just a couple of months -– and the State’s letter to the pardon and parole board that reflects a lack of objection to an early release -– he could be out in three and a half months. Of course, this is all quite muddy thanks to our broken legal system, and many things could occur to slow this down. But the Atlanta native at least has some bright light at the end of the tunnel, and that’s more than most ever get in U.S. prisons.

Meanwhile, another point of contention that came up concerning YFN Lucci recently is his past romance with Reginae Carter, Lil Wayne’s daughter. The two went out before his arrest, and many fans asked her after this sentence whether she’d take him back. Unfortunately for any shippers out there, she seemed to shut down the idea altogether, although that doesn’t reflect a lack of care and support. “I’m not tied to no man, I’m single. I’m Tired of the speculations . And I’m not looking back . At all . Send me everything new,” Carter tweeted.

In addition, the rap world reacted with fervor upon the news of Lucci’s sentence -– and some with boastfulness. For example, 50 Cent took credit for this sentence because he recommended his lawyer, and it ended up working out. Surely more MCs and media figures will respond to all this in the near future, especially as he might find freedom sooner than anticipated. With that in mind, stay up to date on HNHH for the latest news and updates on YFN Lucci.

Jaidyn Alexis’ New Look Wows Fans As Blueface Admits How Protective Of Her He Is

December 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Jaidyn Alexis has earned praise from across her fandom as she posted up in a racing jacket and new wig. Alexis paired the jacket with a black crop top and her signature “Jaidyn” pendant chain. “She always been a pretty woman she just receives a lot of hate,” one person responded on Instagram. However, not everyone was complimentary. “Don’t like Ebony prn and hates black women but wears perm Yaki someone make it make sense! Don’t wanna be us but wanna look like us!,” one person argued.

Meanwhile, Blueface admitted on X, formerly Twitter, just how defensive he is about Alexis. “When I heard the word “Jaidyn” come out his mouth now that’s where he fucked up at that ones going to cost you every time I turn to a savage bout Jaidyn,” the rapper admitted. However, commenters were quick to point out that Blueface is not exactly a paragon of virtue when it comes to treating his baby mama right.

Jaidyn Stakes Her Claim On Blueface

A post shared by HOLLYWOOD UNLOCKED (@hollywoodunlocked)

Despite their often strained relationship, the pair are often seemingly inseparable. In October, Alexis staked her claim on Blueface, calling the rapper “her d-ck” despite new rumors about him. She made the bold claim in a video posted to social media, where she was vibing with Blue, and the rapper was claiming that he “wasn’t going nowhere”. However, several people have claimed that Blue has in fact been going places. First, there is Chrisean Rock, who claims that she and Blue were hooking up mere days before he proposed to Alexis.

Furthermore, Alexis’ assertion came the same week as a video showing Blueface snuggling up to an unknown woman. The video just showed the pair cuddling, but knowing Blue’s history, there’s every chance that things went further than that. However, Alexis’ reaction showed that she’s not fazed by the allegations and rumors. Furthermore, nothing more came of those infidelity allegations. Although, Blueface was of course quickly embroiled more drama involving Chrisean Rock.

Chloe Bailey’s Hairdresser Stuns Social Media As “In Pieces” Artist Debuts Short Style: Photos

December 5, 2023 by newhiphopnews

When it comes to her sense of style, Chloe Bailey seems to prefer outfits that make her feel grown and sexy. Some who have been following her from a young age take issue with this transition in her wardrobe, but real fans are here for every era we’ve seen from the Atlanta-born artist so far. We know that both Bailey sisters love their locs – Halle even incorporated hers into her role as The Little Mermaid earlier this year – but that doesn’t always afford them the ability to try out other styles. Thankfully, they’ve got a stylist on deck who’s a pro at temporarily hiding their famous inches so they can switch things up for a night or two.

For her latest public appearance, Chloe was asked to sing at the Kennedy Center in celebration of the iconic Dionne Warwick. Perfectly on theme as always, the “Pray It Away” hitmaker somehow hid her long locs under a short black wig that beautifully pays homage to timeless beauties of the past. It’s a far cry from how we usually see Bailey, but still, the internet can’t help but commend her hairdresser for being able to pull off such a feat.

Chloe Bailey Hides Her Locs to Sport a Bold New Style

We obviously adore her hair, but the Swarm starlet’s pink ball gown is worth mentioning too. The blush colour makes her tan skin glow, and the simple silver accessories only add more understated glamour. “Timeless . What an honour it was to sing and celebrate Dionne Warwick at the Kennedy Center in front of the President and many of my inspirations,” Bailey wrote on Instagram while commerating the special moment. “Unforgettable night. Can’t wait for you all to see .”

While Chloe Bailey continues to impress us with one show-stopping performance after another, her little sister, Halle, continues to deal with constant pregnancy speculation. By now, it’s obvious that the 23-year-old doesn’t want to talk about whether she’s with child or not, despite the internet being very ready for that conversation. Read more about that at the link below, and let us know if you think Chloe managed to pull off her short black hair or not in the comments.

Alabama Barker’s Bright Blue Hair May Be Her Best Look Yet

September 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

For years, the Kardashian-Jenner family has been at the centre of entertainment news, with each sister bringing her own unique gossip-worthy headlines to the table. Kim keeps busy with her four children, law school, and her various business endeavours, while Khloe has two little ones and a fashion brand of her own to oversee. Elsewhere, the younger two siblings, Kendall and Kylie, are best known for modelling and makeup respectively. As for the family’s oldest, Kourtney, she recently married Travis Barker, making her a step-mom of Landon and Alabama Barker, not to mention the baby currently growing in her belly.

It seems that Alabama has some big aspirations for her future, and now that she has both the Barker and Kardashian names affiliated with her, there’s no telling where she’ll go. For the most part, the 17-year-old seems to be networking in the industry the old-fashioned way – attending parties where she crosses paths with other nepo babies and celebrities, as well as making her presence felt on social media.

Alabama Barker Switches Up Her Hair Colour Again

Barker’s most recent TikTok post certainly has our attention, as it shows her rocking a hair colour that’s totally different from her usual blonde inches. While dancing along to a song with her friend, the controversial content creator throws stacks of cash. She looks to be wearing just a waist trainer and bra above her sweatpants, and the all-black ensemble only makes her new bright blue locks stand out more.

As some TikTok users continue to debate whether Alabama Barker looks her age or not, others continue to express disappointment in her attempt at launching a rap career. Regardless of what the internet has to say, the socialite seems to have the full support of her famous father, as well as her mom, Shanna Moakler. Read what the latter had to say about Alabama’s future plans at the link below, and check back later for more music/pop culture news updates.
