Gucci Mane Sets Wedding Date

(AllHipHop News) Rapper Gucci Mane will wed his fiance Keyshia Ka’oir next year (17).

The hip-hop star popped the question to Ka’oir last month during the Atlanta Hawks vs. New Orleans Pelicans basketball game at the Philips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, and just last week, the rapper, real name Radric Davis, sparked rumours the couple had already exchanged vows when he posted a video on Instagram of a diamond ring on his finger and called Ka’oir his “wife.”

However, the 36-year-old has since taken to Twitter to announce he and his fiancee will head down the aisle on October 17, 2017.

The date is reportedly special to the rapper because it was his grandfather’s address in Bessemer, Alabama.

“1017 my granddaddy house,” he rapped on song Decapitated from 2013’s Diary Of A Trap God.

Gucci and Keyshia have been dating since 2010, after the rapper spotted his future wife in a copy of XXL magazine and recruited her for one of his music videos.

“We had our ups and downs, ’cause I would mess up and do stupid junk, but she had my back through all of it,” Gucci told The New York Times back in July.

Is This Jim Jones’ Response To Cam’ron Cutting Him Off?

(AllHipHop Rumors) Who on earth can bring Cam’ron and Jim Jones together?

It looks like Cam’ron and Jim Jones‘ brotherly beef is far from over.

Jim Jones looks like he still misses his estranged brother, while Cam’ron looks like he is fed TF up and done with Jimmy.

While Cam’ron has admitted he has certainly had his faults in the past, he expressed that today his real issue is the fact that Jim Jones is always putting their business in the public eye by putting it all over social media.

Cam even said that he thinks he’s done with Jim Jones in a respectful manner.

Jim Jones must’ve gotten wind of Cam’s recent interview with Angie Martinez, because he took to Instagram to send a few shots that appear to be aimed at Killa Cam. Jones said,

“Money doesn’t make you a real n-gga. Your character, actions, and loyalty make u a real n-gga. I know real broke n-ggas, and rich f-ck n-ggas.”

Waka Flocka’s Wife Has Been Catching Hell!

(AllHipHop Rumors) Well the world will forever be divided on the subject of cheating. What goes one in your household is your business, so you might as well do what makes you happy right? LOL

Waka Flocka’s wife, Tammy Rivera, has been catching hell lately for taking back her “dirty dog” cheating husband.

The Love and Hip Hop Atlanta star has been sharing her marriage views everywhere. Tammy has been ridiculed day in and day out for giving Waka another chance… well chances, causing Tammy to finally respond to the hate.

Tammy has expressed that she believes it’s “weak” for women to leave their marriage after their husband cheats.

I guess this is a whole new meaning to ride or die huh?

While many claim that Rivera is making excuses for Waka, Tammy assures all that she’s coming from a place of understanding as she told Bleu Bombshell,

“But then on the other side you have men who aren’t growing up with fathers, not making excuses for men to cheat, but you have men who never seen what a household is supposed to look like – my husband was never in a married household. He didn’t know. His mom was a hustler, you know what i’m saying, she was out in the streets she was the mom and the dad. He doesn’t know—he grew up in the industry. He had early stardom with his career, I think Waka was in his early 20s mid 20s when he dropped his first hit. So you have all these groupies, you have all these things but despite all of that, behind closed doors -this man loves me to death and I know he loves my child to death. He does anything for us.”

Tammy also says that her mother told her that she might find a man that has it all together and doesn’t cheat, however, it’s very hard to find real love. Because Tammy feels that she’s found real love in Waka, she refuses to give up on her husband.

Ladies if your man cheated once, would you stay? If he cheated several times, would you stay and “work on and repair” your relationship?

What’s most entertaining is the fact that the women that have so much to say in Tammy’s comments on social media, probably are getting cheated on or are involuntary sister wives themselves. Carry on.

Chance the Rapper Has Fans Choose His “Saturday Night Live” Setlist

(AllHipHop News) Chance the Rapper asked his fans to choose his setlist for his upcoming performance on “Saturday Night Live.”

The Chicago hip hop star is returning to the show almost a year to the day since his last appearance, and has reached out to his fans and followers on Twitter for help picking two songs from his latest album, Coloring Book.

“I’ve been trying to perform EVERY song from Coloring Book on television once,” Chance wrote on the social media site. “I’ve done 5 so far. What do you want to see me do on #SNL?”

The rapper has so far performed “Angels” on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert,” “Blessings” on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” and “Summer Friends” on “Good Morning America.”

It was recently announced he would be the musical guest, alongside host Casey Affleck, on the final “Saturday Night Live” on December 17.

Chance last performed on the show almost exactly a year ago on December 12, 2015. It’s been a busy week for the rapper, as he performed at the White House on Thursday (December 1) at President Barack Obama’s final National Christmas Tree Lighting.

Chance gave a rousing rendition of his track “Sunday Candy” as he helped celebrate the annual lighting of the National Christmas Tree with the president, a fellow Chicago native, First Lady Michelle Obama and their daughters Malia and Sasha.

Sasha was even spotted singing along to Chance’s track at the festivities.

Chance has known the outgoing president since his father was a state director for Obama when he was a senator in Illinois.

“I first met Chance when he was 8 years old, and so we’ve been family for a while,” the president recently revealed. Other performers at the National Christmas Tree Lighting in Washington D.C., which was hosted by Eva Longoria, included Kelly Clarkson, folk band The Lumineers, and country star Garth Brooks.

DMX Reflects On Being Offered A $1 Million Bonus To Release Two Albums In One Year

(AllHipHop News) Back in 1998, DMX pulled off a big feat by releasing two albums in one calendar year.

It’s Dark And Hell Is Hot arrived in May of that year, and it was followed by Flesh Of My Flesh, Blood Of My Blood in December.

Fader published an article about the creation of Flesh Of My Flesh, Blood Of My Blood.

Many of the people connected to the LP gave insight about the 3-time platinum project, including DMX.

“[Island Def Jam Music Group co-president] Lyor [Cohen] said if I could do another album in 30 days, I’d get a million-dollar bonus. That was the whole drive,” said X.

The Yonkers native added, “I wanted to get that bonus. So I wasn’t playing with that whole studio sh-t. I wanted to get it out. The first album had 19 songs, so I already felt like I was cheating a little bit by giving them less songs than on the first one.”

Both It’s Dark and Flesh Of My Flesh landed at #1 on the Billboard 200 album chart.

DMX became the second rapper to release two chart-topping albums in the same year, following 2Pac (aka Makaveli) dropping All Eyez On Me and The Don Killuminati: The 7 Day Theory in 1996.

Jeremih Removed From “Summer’s Over Tour” With PartyNextDoor

(AllHipHop News) The conflict between R&B singers Jeremih and PartyNextDoor will not continue, at least not during their nationwide trek.

Live Nation released a statement confirming Jeremih has been removed from the “Summer’s Over Tour”:

Live Nation’s top priority is helping artists and performers create great shows for their fans.  With this in mind, we’ve decided it’s best for the Summer’s Over Tour to continue without Jeremih, effective immediately. After multiple incidents we are left with no other choice. We do not support these actions or take these actions lightly. Ticketholders may request a full refund at point of purchase, which will forfeit access to the entire show. No partial refunds will be issued.

Jeremih blasted PND during his Dallas show on December 2.

“PartyNextDoor and his crew are some b-tch ass n-ggas,” yelled the “Oui” vocalist. “Tell him to pay that fake-ass budget they’ve been pressing at night.”

Prior to that moment, Jeremih walked off stage in Chicago, and he was accused of using a “fake” version of himself for a Houston stop.

Jeremih also accused someone of releasing pepper spray during his set in Texas.

“Pepper spray was put in the atmosphere last night on stage while I was performing in Dallas. Surprisingly no blogs picked that up,” he wrote on Twitter.

Earlier this year, Jeremih talked about doing a joint projectt with PartyNextDoor titled Late Night Party.

The 29-year-old Def Jam artist’s latest Instagram post was a celebration of the one-year anniversary of his solo effort Late Nights: The Album.

Happy 1 yr Anniversary to #LateNights The Album , everything I do is for mih fans! #LaterThatNight ?
