Nicki Minaj’s Security Clash With Paris Paparazzi

June 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Nicki Minaj has been having a bit of a rough time around her European tour. The most noteworthy incident came last month when she was arrested in Amsterdam. Videos of her arrest made the rounds online which caused fans to speak out on behalf of Minaj against the treatment she received from police there. When she was later freed she took to social media to further explain the ways that she had been victimized. The ordeal caused her to half to cancel a show in Manchester and the second show she had scheduled for Amsterdam, though the former was eventually rescheduled.

This time she’s in Paris, where many a celebrity in the past has had run ins with the notoriously aggressive paparazzi. In fact, the reputation of the press there may have something to do with why Nicki Minaj’s security reacted to hostile to someone trying to take pictures of he there recently. Video made the rounds online earlier this week of an interaction between a photographer and Minaj’s security. They use various tactics like shining flashlights, standing between her and the camera, and even getting physical to put some distance between them. Check out the clip of her security dealing with the paparazzi below.

Nicki Minaj also recently announced a new leg of her Pink Friday 2 tour. After her European leg she will return to North America for another round later this year. In the meantime, she had fans wondering if a divorce was inbound. It was all because of a tweet she made earlier this week. A simple post reading “Yes, Single” left fans wondering. They debated if new music was on the way of if Minaj had become newly single herself.

What do you think of the tactics Nicki Minaj’s security used to deal with paparazzi during a recent show in Paris? Do you plan on seeing her in the second North American leg of her tour later this year? Let us know in the comment section below.

Bianca Censori Switches Up Her Fashion With Shocking Look In Paris

March 2, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Bianca Censori entered the pop culture sphere in great part due to her mostly lewd, provocative, and controversial fashion choices since marrying Kanye West. It’s been a big point of debate and even concern among some fans, with a lot of headlines and gossip swirling around their relationship dynamic and how style is indicative of that. However, the former Yeezy architect’s latest outing with Ye in Paris, leaving the Ritz Paris on Saturday (March 2), is a complete departure from what she’s known for with her outfits. She donned a long-sleeve purple sweater, slicked-back hair, leggings, and high heels, and many remarked on how we usually see so much of her body -– often, more than what we bargained for.

According to a TMZ report on the matter, the couple were on their way to fly out of Paris following Ye’s run of listening parties in Europe for Vultures 1, his Ty Dolla $ign collab album. As for the Chicago artist, he wore a black hoodie over his face, a black leather jacket, navy slacks, and what look like black Air Force 1s at first glance. Bianca Censori shocked Parisian onlookers all throughout their time there, so this is a big departure from what we know from her closet finds. Maybe it’s the mark of a new era, or just a one-off instance.

However, we know there’s at least one person out there who, if reports are accurate, is happy with this change. A Daily Mail report suggested that Bianca Censori’s family, particularly her father Leo, wants to talk to Ye about her fashion choices and how he turned her into a “trashy commodity” away from her formerly close loved ones. “Bianca’s father Leo wants to have a proper sit down with Kanye,” an alleged source remarked. “And ask him what the hell he is thinking when he parades Bianca around like a trashy naked trophy pony.

“He wants to ask Kanye what he would do if his daughters North, or Chicago, were seen in public half-naked in outfits encouraged by their husbands,” they went on. “He knows that there is no way in hell that Kanye would allow this for his daughters so it makes no sense why he would encourage this for his own wife. No man should ever encourage the woman that he loves to walk out in public and present herself like this. That isn’t love. That is control.” You can see pictures of this new look for Bianca Censori with the “Via” link below. For more news and the latest updates on her and Ye, log back into HNHH.

Playboi Carti’s New Mask For “VULTURES 1” Paris Listening Party Draws Slipknot Comparisons

February 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

One of the odd things about the rollout for Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign’s VULTURES rollout has been the theme of wearing masks. Ye is the one leading the charge in all of this as he was first spotted wearing an all-black cover. It featured a see-through area for his eyes and it must have been fairly breathable because of how often he wore it in public. Then, he went full Jason Voorhees with the famous white hockey mask. Playboi Carti is now doing the same as he was seen wearing a mask resembling the iconic heavy metal band Slipknot.

This extravagant piece was worn for the latest VULTURES 1 listening party in Paris this past weekend. Chris Fehn was the member of the band who popularized the “Pinocchio nose” headgear. He is now a former bandmate, but his iconic look still lives on. Plenty of those comparisons were made in the video below as Playboi Carti went with a black leather look compared to Fehn’s silver one.

Some fans respected the choice, while others made the obvious but still funny jokes to the fictional character. However, a few people were a little annoyed with Carti trying to be something he is not. “Bro thinks his genre is rock,” “Getting more corny by the day,” were just a few of those type of remarks. One person even went as far as to say that he wore that mask because “he lied ab dropping music too much.” That last one is true though, where is Music!?

What are your thoughts on Playboi Carti’s new mask for the Paris listening party for VULTURES 1? Is this the better face covering, why or why not? Do you think Kanye West inspired him to wear masks for the performances? Is the album still in your rotation and if so what songs? We would like to hear what you have to say, so be sure to leave your takes in the comments section. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Playboi Carti and VULTURES. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on around the world of music.

Kanye West Performs “N****s In Paris” At “Vultures” Concert In Paris

February 26, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West performed his 2011 hit single, “N****s In Paris,” during a Vultures concert in the French city, earlier this week. A clip of the moment has been circulating on social media in the time since.

When 2Cool2Blog posted the video on Instagram, fans had plenty of praise for Ye. “kanye like boobby shmurda …. yahll wanna play games in the states… imma take my talents overseas,” one fan responded. Another remarked: “To all artists he’s showing you the way that y’all still don’t follow him that’s sad.”

West and JAY-Z dropped “N****s In Paris” with the rest of their collaborative album, Watch the Throne, back in 2011. The song has since reached Diamond certification from the RIAA, marking over 10 million sales. Speaking with XXL at the time, Ye revealed that a trip to Paris inspired him to make the song. “I am where art meets commercial,” he said. “The sweet spot between the hood and Hollywood. Having a conversation with Karl Lagerfeld and Jay-Z within the same hour. When we’re in Paris dressing all crazy at fashion shows, we listening to Jay-Z. Jeezy in Paris, that’s what it is.” Check out the clip of West performing the song in Paris below.

West teamed up with Ty Dolla Sign for his newest collaborative album, Vultures 1, earlier this month. The effort features Playboi Carti, Rich The Kid, Travis Scott, Chris Brown, Lil Durk, YG, and more artists. West says that it is the first of three planned projects in the Vultures series.

Kanye West Announces “Vultures” Listening Party In Paris

February 18, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kanye West and Ty Dolla $ign will be repping their new collab album Vultures for the rest of the year, it seems. Moreover, the former just announced another listening party -– sorry, “listening experience” -– for the project or its supposed sequels, this time in Paris’ Accor Arena next Sunday (February 25). Earlier this week, the duo announced two other listening events in Italy for Vultures, scheduled for February 22 in Milan and February 24 in Bologna. As such, it looks like they really want to ramp things up ahead of Vultures 2. Whether that even ends up dropping is anyone’s guess, but fans are holding onto hope.

Furthermore, European fans may want to hop onto these parties if they’re big Ye and Ty fans, because they don’t know for sure when they’ll get to listen to Vultures in its intended form. Of course, the release of this album came marred with sample clearance issues, distribution disputes, disappearances from streaming services, and a whole lot of drama. As is typical for a Kanye West rollout, it was the hottest topic for a moment, and then everything just kind of fell back into place. Unfortunately, we can’t really pinpoint what there is to learn from all this.

For folks on the other side of the Atlantic, though, they might have another chance to see Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign perform. Rolling Loud California announced that they will perform at the festival on March 14, which is days after Vultures 2 is supposed to come out. Will this sequel project actually come out, and will the duo actually show up to perform at this rap festival? Again, it’s a tough call to make, and betting on the Chicago artist’s word is mostly a fool’s errand.

Meanwhile, the first installment’s commercial performance has been unsurprisingly impressive, although Billboard doesn’t seem to count it for its charts. Maybe they don’t want to give Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign any more press for the antisemitic bigotry associated with the rollout. Or, some fans think, their distribution model could’ve played a part, but either way, fans are still bumping it. We’ll see how these listening events keep the story going. For more news and the latest updates on Vultures, stick around on HNHH.

21 Savage Kicks Off First European Tour With Sold-Out Paris Show

November 17, 2023 by newhiphopnews

21 Savage is officially taking his superstar status internationally for the first time. It’s a celebration of his permanent status as a legal resident of the United States, which was announced earlier this year. Savage was famously arrested by ICE in 2019. The move shocked many fans as almost nobody knew at the time that he was originally born in the UK. Now after dealing with his citizenship proceedings for years he’s finally able to tour Europe.

The tour is now officially under way following the first show last night. The show saw 21 Savage making his debut in Paris with a sold out show at Zenith. The night was packed full of guest performers and netted great reviews online from hundreds of fans in attendance. He’s set to play seven more shows in five different countries stretching out until the end of the month. Check out a clip from last night’s Paris show below.

21 Savage’s Europe Tour Is Underway

21 Savage spent the past few months traveling across America with Drake on the “It’s All A Blur” tour. The two teamed up for a collaborative project called Her Loss last year that spawned smash hits like “Rich Flex” and “Spin Bout U.” Now, the album broke a pretty major record. It officially passed Kanye West and Jay-Z’s Watch the Throne to become the most-streamed collaborative rap album on Spotify.

Earlier this month, rumors that have been swirling all year began to re-emerge. Many fans have speculated that 21 Savage and Latto could be dating. The pair collaborated on a song last year and internet sleuths think they can prove they’ve been hanging out. Latto continues to post teases about her mystery man and 21 Savage is the one most fans online have singled out as the most likely. What do you think of 21 Savage making his Paris debut and kicking off his European tour? Let us know in the comment section below.

Keke Palmer & Baby Leodis Enjoy Paris Amid Darius Jackson Drama

November 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Keke Palmer has had a busy month so far, filing for a restraining order from ex-partner Darius Jackson and for full custody of their seven-month-old son, Leodis. She accuses the fitness trainer of abusing her, nearly hitting her with a car, trespassing into her home, and more. For obvious reasons, the allegations have sparked outrage. She’s since been met with an outpouring of support from fans and peers alike, as she navigates the difficult circumstances.

Luckily, she appears to be doing well amid the fallout, recently visiting Paris with Leodis. In new photos, the adorable duo is seen dodging rain under an umbrella, and Keke’s all smiles with her little one. She rocked a black and red dress with a pair of cozy boots while Leodis kept it casual with a sweet knit beanie. Of course, the two of them paid the Eiffel Tower a visit, later venturing off to the Quai Branly Museum. Clearly, the performer’s not letting her ex’s alleged control issues keep her down any longer, and has been quick to get back to living her life to the fullest with her son.

Things are already looking up for the new mother, and fans love to see it. Her Parisian escape isn’t the only thing she has going for her these days, either. Keke also just recently announced that she’ll be hosting the 2023 Soul Train Awards. On top of hosting, she’s also scheduled to perform alongside artists like Coco Jones, Fridayy, BJ The Chicago Kid, Muni Long, and more. The awards show is set to air on BET on November 26.

Obviously, they don’t call her Keke “Keep a Bag” Palmer for nothing. What do you think of Keke Palmer and Leodis’ Parisian adventure? Are you glad to see her out and about amid recent drama? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Usher Performs With Offset At His Paris Residency: Watch

October 3, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Usher’s return to music has included a whole bunch of storylines. One of the biggest pop culture news stories of 2023 was the drama including Keke Palmer and her ex Darius Jackson. That got messy, but Usher has made it clear he wants no more parts in that. Additionally, he has been talking a lot about his lengthy residency in Las Vegas and he was just picked to perform during one of the grandest sports events. He will be hosting the Super Bowl Halftime Show, but he had more news to share on top of that.

After a five-year album hiatus, he will be making a return with a new album on the day of the big game. His last release came back on October 12, 2018. It was a short collaborative project titled “A” with trap-producing legend, Zaytoven. We still have five months before that all happens, but it is great to see one of the most beloved R&B legends make a ceremonious comeback. He continues to ride this amazing winning streak with a recent performance during his residency in Paris.

A post shared by Usher (@usher)

According to HipHopDX, it is an eight-day stay and he is making the most of it. Right after performing “Ni**as In Paris” as a witty reference to that iconic Jay-Z and Kanye West track, he brought a Southern legend. “Bad and Boujee” began to play and out came Offset. In the video above from Usher’s Instagram, he is dancing and having a blast with him in front of the rabid fans. The Texas singer captioned the post, “We from the SOUTH yeah THAT WAY @offsetyrn.” Maybe both will work together on a song together?

What are your initial thoughts on Usher bringing out Offset to perform during his Paris residency? Do you think both of these artists will be on each other’s next albums? Is Usher making a big comeback right now? We want to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.

Bobby Shmurda Pops Champagne In Paris

August 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Bobby Shmurda’s living large these days, moving away from the rap game but still making sure his name isn’t forgotten. After all that he’s been through and many years of fans clamoring for his freedom, it’s still heartening to see him enjoy life. Maybe he’s still looking for his hat, though, because he recently hit up the City of Love and posed in front of the Eiffel Tower. To celebrate his Paris visit, the rapper got on the shoulders of an unspecified man, perhaps a local or just someone traveling with him. Moreover, he had a bottle of champagne and popped it all over the street amid incoming traffic.

Furthermore, his friend didn’t pass up the opportunity, and it was actually Bobby Shmurda who got off, not even waiting until he told him to do so. Before that, though, the man took a couple of swigs from the bottle and seemed to be enjoying himself a lot. The Brooklyn native shouted out another city legend (and the city of Paris itself) with his background music choice for the clip. Of course, what else was he going to play if not Kanye West and Jay-Z’s “N***as In Paris?”

However, it’s not like Bobby Shmurda’s media presence is entirely flexes and lavish times. For example, during a recent podcast interview, he wanted to specifically reach out to fans with some general but important life advice. Overall, the 29-year-old wants people to avoid negative criticism or situations by not basing themselves on what people say. He’s learned a lot throughout his life, especially when it comes to picking your battles and putting yourself first.

Meanwhile, Bobby might not be as prolific or hard-working of a rapper as he once was, but he still has a valuable perspective. Hopefully he continues to share that wisdom with others, especially a younger generation that might not know about his story. More importantly, though, hopefully he just keeps enjoying life as he should. On that note, stick around on HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Bobby Shmurda.

Latto Dressed In Eye-Popping Pink Out In Paris

July 5, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Female rapper Latto stopped by the Eiffel Tower and other Paris attractions for an impromptu Instagram photo shoot. She was out in France for Iris Van Herpen’s Paris Fashion Week Runway Show. However, she took some time to herself to go shopping for some Chanel and to pose in a pink outfit that accentuated all of her curves. “Oui oui,” she says in the photo dump caption, complete with a lipstick mouth emoji.

The outfit Latto had on was nothing short of eye-popping. Her curly hair was done up, allowing her bangs to fall forward. Reflective shades and a pearl choker necklace with the Coco Chanel logo in silver adorned her face and neck. Her top, however, was the show-stealer: A double Chanel bandana enlarged to fit Latto’s chest, tied in the back, with the bottom flowing in the Parisian wind. Pink short shorts and thick, fuzzy pink heels completed the extravagant look.

Latto Is Quickly Becoming A Fashion Icon

This isn’t the first time Latto has shown out as a fashionista. She showed up to the runway show as a beautiful butterfly. She’s also shown her appreciation to rap peer Cardi B with a $10k Chanel bag. Coincidentally, she has her own Chanel bag in this photo dump. A big fan of Coco Chanel, Latto believes there’s such a thing as “too much.” She ends the collage with a fun pose beside her friend, fashion model Brooklyn Nikole.

In other Latto news, she’s been posting a buttload of photos on her Instagram, literally. She’s been performing at various concerts around the world and hitting up the fashion world more often now. Basically, Latto is living the rap life she’s always dreamed of. She even brought the pink vibes to Poland, where she posed on a pink couch. (The rapper also signed a fan’s backside during a performance; Poland absolutely loved her while she was in the country.)
