Rihanna & ASAP Rocky Fuel Marriage Rumors Thanks To RiRi’s Recent Interview Comments

October 12, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Rihanna and ASAP Rocky are always providing insights into their relationship, but they’re usually pretty light or general comments on their family dynamic, relationship, and parenthood. Fans still want to know other specifics, though, especially when it comes to whether they will tie the knot… Or if they already have. On that last point, social media once again launched marriage rumors thanks to a recent E! News interview that the Barbadian superstar participated in at a Savage X Fenty event in Nordstrom in Los Angeles. When the reporter expressed that she loves seeing Riri as a mother, she had this to say: “Motherhood, wifehood-ish – wife-ish-hood.”

“Just being a home body, I love it,” Rihanna said of her and A$AP Rocky’s overall family dynamics. “I love to be a home-maker. I have a lot of women in my home right now. And I just like to to be exciting and celebrate things. I’m trying to build new traditions for our little family that we built.” “Hello?! Spooky season,” she replied when the interviewer asked about some of the family traditions she’s excited to maintain. “That’s up, upfront. Next is Thanksgiving with my in-laws, ’cause that’s not a thing in Barbados. And then Christmas is a very, very big thing for us. So we’re going to do it up. All the thing you’re going to do, girl. I ain’t no different.”

“That’s my family for life, regardless,” the “Diamonds” singer clarified when the reporter asked about that “in-laws” title suggestively, yet another speculative hint about marriage. Regardless of all the theorizing, fans are just happy to see Rihanna and A$AP Rocky build their life and celebrate each other and their family. Also, it’s not like a ring is the end-all, be-all factor of a healthy and loving relationship.

“It’s crazy how we find balance with our chaotic schedules,” ASAP Rocky told Billboard about Rihanna. “[The relationship] is going great. I don’t think there’s a more perfect person because when the schedules are hectic, she’s very understanding of that. And when the schedule’s freed up, that’s when you get to spend [the] most time together. It’s all understanding and compatibility.”

GloRilla Claims That People Say Rihanna Is Her Twin

October 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s an exciting week for GloRilla because she’s about to drop her debut album, Glorious. It’s coming on the heels of her Ehhthang Ehhthang mixtape, so she’s really looking to maximize her 2024 without a doubt. Just a couple of days ago, the Memphis rapper revealed the project’s tracklist and it’s a pretty stacked one at that. Features will include Megan Thee Stallion, Latto, BossMan Dlow, Sexyy Red, Muni Long, T-Pain, and more. It’s also going to have 15 songs and it’s dropping this Friday, October 11. It’s going to be interesting to see how it compares to her previous tape, as it was a solid release.

But given how rock steady she’s been this year, we expect it to be a better project overall. Overall, we are excited for it, but maybe not as much as someone else. If you remember, Rihanna was yearning for it this summer. In fact, she even DM’d Big Glo asking when her album was dropping. She has not been shy about her support for the “Yeah Glo!” hitmaker, as she recently was vibing heavily to “TGIF,” one of the lead singles to Glorious.

The Internet Wants To Know Who Is Saying GloRilla & Rihanna Are Twins

Glo has been extremely thankful for RiRi’s love, and she’s been on the record expressing how much respect she’s got for the R&B legend. You could almost say they love each other like sisters. This comparison has been floating around the internet for a little while that they physically look pretty similar. Glo’s aware of it, partially thanks to her grandmother, but also due to the masses, so she claims. She stated this in a recent interview surrounding the release of her album and the internet isn’t buying that one bit. ““People” Just Be Saying ANYTHING ,” one IG user says. “Ain’t nobody said no sh** like that ,” another adds. Personally, we do see it just a little bit, but we want to hear your opinions.

What are your thoughts on GloRilla claiming that people say she looks like Rihanna? Do you see any sort of resemblance? Are you excited for Glorious this Friday? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding GloRilla and Rihanna. Finally, stay with us for everything else going on in the music world.

Glorilla Recalls Seeing Rihanna Dance to “TGIF” on IG: ‘People Be Saying That’s My Twin’

October 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

GloRilla is still amazed that Rihanna made a video of her “TGIF” banger. In a conversation with Billboard, GloRilla revealed her reaction while showing some love to Beyoncé.

“Riri [was] asking for the album and dancing to the song,” GLo said. “She don’t be dancing to people’s song. When she did that, I was like, ‘Wow,’ ’cause you know, people be saying that’s my twin. They be hatin’ on me. I love Rihanna. I’m a big fan of Rihanna. I love Beyoncé. I’m the biggest fan of Beyoncé. This was my third time meeting her and she’s always so sweet every time. I love her.”

After the video, Rihanna contacted the Memphis star via IG DM with a playful question. Hmm, about her next project’s release date.

Rihanna kind of had the hilarious audacity to ask, “You got all summer sis! I know dis wild hypothetical, but when the album drop?”

Fans, being overly sensitive fans, were a bit more concerned with the long gestating drop of Rihanna’s own album, R9, than that of Glo’s debut body of work.

GloRilla’s album will drop on Oct. 11.

Why Did Kendrick Lamar & Rihanna Turn Down Coachella 2025?

October 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Over the past few years, there’s been a lot of discussion over the future of Coachella festival, as the massive music fest tries to find its way in an increasingly fractured music landscape. While this year’s headliners — Doja Cat, Lana Del Rey, and Tyler The Creator — put on an impressive show, there were still reports that the fest sold way fewer tickets than normal. And now, in another blow, it turns out the fest was reportedly unable to secure a pair of A-list headliners to ensure a sellout in 2025: Kendrick Lamar and Rihanna. So why did they turn down Coachella?

According to Bloomberg, from which the report originates, both artists are way too busy to put in the sort of work it takes to put together a Coachella-headlining-worthy set.

Kendrick is, of course, using those resources to build his Super Bowl Halftime Show headlining set, and preparing to go on a major stadium tour afterward. Meanwhile, Rihanna, who is presumably still working on her ninth album as she raises two boys with ASAP Rocky, doesn’t “need the money or the exposure.”

So what does that mean for Coachella?

Paul Tollett, president and CEO of Goldenvoice, Coachella’s organizer, is apparently searching high and low for headliners that can restore the festival to its former glory, but Bloomberg writes that Coachella may be “a victim of its own success.” The fest needs to book the biggest names to set itself apart and meet the expectations fans have set for it after 20 years, but those names don’t need Coachella anymore — they can make more from their tours or movies or multimedia empires (in one example, Bloomberg notes Coachella pays between $8 and $12 million for headliners, but Beyoncé and Taylor Swift can make $15 million).

That leaves Goldenvoice in a tough spot, for sure, but the good news is: Your favorite artists are thriving — and there’s plenty of room for new artists to move on up.

Kendrick Lamar & Rihanna Reportedly Turned Down Headlining Coachella Next Year

October 7, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Kendrick Lamar and Rihanna fans are desperate for a new album, but it looks like they might not have much to promote… Right? Well, according to a recent Bloomberg report, Goldenvoice’s president Paul Tollet is shopping around for Coachella 2025 headliners, and asked the “LOYALTY.” duo if the would be down. Apparently, they turned the offer down, although this doesn’t necessarily indicate that they won’t be coming out with something soon. This report also claimed that K.Dot will go on a stadium tour in 2025, and his Super Bowl halftime show next year also suggests that he’s got something to roll out.

As for RiRi… We’re all out of guesses. We don’t know if she’s just really working that hard on perfecting her next record over the course of almost a decade at this point. Also, Rihanna continues to grow her business empire and her family, so she has plenty of extracurricular reasons to maybe leave the music to the side at this point. Die-hards hope that this isn’t the case, but at this point, we have to be pessimistic rather than blindly hopeful.

In addition, we also need to compare this reported Coachella rejection to the Super Bowl halftime show. When Rihanna performed last year, she didn’t follow it up with an album release, which was very disappointing even for the fans hyped about her pregnancy reveal. As for Kendrick Lamar, he’s got his headlining slot coming up in New Orleans on February 9, one that the Barbadian singer is very excited for. Of course, this doesn’t guarantee an album rollout, or even new material. But we can’t imagine that the Compton lyricist didn’t attack Drake with a plan to have this lead into something larger or what he really wants to talk about and share with the world.

Whether or not you think Kendrick Lamar deserved the Super Bowl slot is another story. Regardless of that debate, he and Rihanna continue to be at the top of people’s “most anticipated albums” list. Coachella-goers next year sadly won’t see them on the main stage, but this speculative discussion around their next moves will continue regardless of a “yes” or “no” answer. As such, no report or theory will close the door or open it when it comes to their next record, unless either of them says anything to the contrary.

Rihanna Laughs At Reporter Who Asks If She Attended Diddy Parties: Watch

October 2, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Diddy knows everybody in the music industry. He’s been one of the most well-connected moguls of the last three decades. Anyone who has made it big has been photographed with him, or has interacted with him at some point. Rihanna is no exception. The pop icon was recently leaving a party when journalists approached her and began asking her about the Diddy scandal. She was asked whether she had ever attended one of the mogul’s alleged “freak offs,” and she gave a characteristically Rihanna answer.

The questions were quick and direct. “Did you attend any of P. Diddy’s parties,” the singer was asked while being escorted by her security. “Were you involved in any of the ‘freak offs’?” It was the second line of questioning that elicited a response. Rihanna couldn’t help but crack a smirk, and she can be seen and heard mumbling the phrase “that’s crazy” as she gets in her vehicle. The timing of her response was not lost on the journalists, who can be heard laughing behind the camera. The singer might find the whole thing crazy, but this question has seemingly become the norm for fans and journalists.

Rihanna Dismissed The Questions As Being “Crazy”

Rihanna and Diddy have not have many interactions over the years. At least, publicly. They have been photographed together at parties and public events. They exchanged niceties during the 2014 iHeart Radio Music Awards when they were both onstage. Diddy also commented on the domestic abuse that Rihanna suffered at the hands of Chris Brown. Unsurprisingly, the mogul’s comments have aged very poorly in light of the allegations made against him. “We know sometimes those relationships get ugly, you know,” he said during a 2009 appearance on Ellen.

People want to know who was and wasn’t involved with Diddy’s alleged crimes. Joe Budden, a man who gets paid to talk about other artists for a living, felt the need to set the record straight during his podcast. “For the last time, can y’all take me off the list of names that y’all think is on these tapes,” the ex-rapper asked. “I ran the jokes long but I thought the joke was a joke because of who I be.” Then there was Trick Daddy. The Miami rapper went on Instagram Live and threatened to beat up the next person who asked if he ever attended a Diddy party. “I’mma slap the sh*t out you,” he asserted. “They don’t like my kind at them parties.”

Naomi Campbell Clarifies Rihanna Beef Rumors

September 30, 2024 by newhiphopnews

We’ve seen this year how far celebrity beefs can go, but we forget that so many of them are just rumors that don’t have much to go off of. Ironically enough, this fuels the idea of a feud even further. This was the case for Rihanna and Naomi Campbell, two superstars in their respective (multiple) fields that have crossed paths plenty of times before in amicable ways. Still, at one point in the road, fans speculated that there was a rift, possibly starting in 2017 due to their common ex, Hassan Jameel. However, Campbell recently dispelled these beef rumors outright.

“I’m not about to let the world pit two Black women against each other. We are two women with two children, mothers,” she reportedly stated, according to The Jasmine Brand. For those unaware, this narrative recently resurfaced due to Naomi Campbell and Rihanna crossing paths at an Alaïa show during New York Fashion Week. RiRi seemed to walk past Campbell and stylist Law Roach without saying hello, and a subsequent social media interaction between the pair had fans speculating that they were shading the Barbadian superstar in response.

At least now we know that these beef rumors are just hearsay. Also, Naomi Campbell has much larger problems to handle than a speculative Rihanna beef. She received a ban from her trustee position at her charity Fashion For Relief due to alleged financial misconduct, a disqualification that reportedly lasts five years per The Guardian. “Fashion for Relief, which has been removed from the register of charities, was set up for the purpose of poverty relief and advancing health and education by making grants to charities or other organizations and by giving resources directly to those affected,” the UK’s Charity Commission stated. “The inquiry saw no evidence that trustees had reviewed the charity’s operating model to ensure fundraising methods were in the charity’s best interest and costs were reasonable relative to income generated.”

Meanwhile, Rihanna recently bonded with another celebrity mom, Nicki Minaj, over an adorable video of her son RZA. If she and Naomi Campbell ever really get into it, we know how they could find common ground.

Naomi Campbell Shuts Down Rumors of Tension with Rihanna After Alaïa Show

September 29, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Two weeks ago, social media buzzed with speculation that supermodel Naomi Campbell and celebrity stylist Law Roach were shading Rihanna after the singer appeared to walk past them without acknowledgment while sitting front row at the Alaïa fashion show. The brief moment, captured on camera, sparked rumors of tension between the two icons.

However, Naomi Campbell has quickly downplayed the drama, addressing the circulating rumors head-on.

In an interview with The New York Times, Campbell dismissed the idea of a feud, saying, “I’m not about to let the world pitch two Black women against each other.” She emphasized the importance of unity, adding, “We are two women with two children, mothers.”

By speaking out against the fake beef, Naomi Campbell is making it clear that there is no animosity between her and Rihanna, focusing instead on solidarity and respect. As two influential figures in the fashion and entertainment industries, both women continue to inspire with their work, their motherhood journeys, and their unwavering grace in the face of public scrutiny.
