Lana Del Rey’s father Rob Grant says he’s “happy to be the first nepo daddy”

Lana Del Rey’s father Rob Grant has said that he is “happy to be the first nepo daddy” as he prepares to release his debut album.

As announced in February, Grant, 69, is due to drop the 14-track ‘Lost At Sea’ on June 9 via Decca Records. You can pre-order/pre-save it here.

He’s already previewed the project with the singles ‘Setting Sail On A Distant Horizon’, ‘Poetry Of Wind And Waves’, ‘The Mermaids Lullaby’ and ‘Deep Ocean Swells’.

Del Rey – real name Lizzie Grant – will feature on the record’s title track and another song called ‘Hollywood Bowl’. Her frequent collaborator Jack Antonoff is credited as one of the album’s producers.

During a new interview with GQ, Rob Grant – who is said to have had “no kind of formal musical training”, per an official blurb – responded to the online reaction to his new venture.

“The nepo daddy thing I love,” he told the publication. According to the article, Grant first encountered the concept – a play on the ‘nepo baby’ label – within his Instagram comments.

“I’m happy to be the first nepo daddy,” he continued.

Del Rey then claimed that Mitch Winehouse – father of the late Amy Winehouse – was actually the first ‘nepo daddy’, having tried to make it as a jazz artist following Amy’s tragic death.

Grant said that “they didn’t have nepo babies” back then. “It’s only because of the whole nepo baby thing. Who wrote that story?” he asked, seemingly referring to the 2022 Vulture article that sparked the debate.

Del Rey replied: “Someone without a brain. It’s just another way to rile simple folks up.”

Grant, who has launched his own ‘nepo daddy’-branded merch, said: “Nobody wants to give anyone any credit for doing anything. God forbid that you actually have talent. People don’t want to acknowledge that. They will find a way to undermine you and to really make you feel bad about yourself.

“So the nepo daddy thing, I love that. Hell, I’ll sell you hats, T-shirts, canvas bags, you name it.”

Other celebrities to have weighed into the ‘nepo baby’ discourse include Liam and Noel Gallagher, Lily AllenZoë KravitzBono‘s daughter Eve Hewson, Diddy‘s son King Combs, and Jamie Lee Curtis.

In other news, Del Rey has shared a previously-unreleased single called ‘Say Yes To Heaven’, which was recorded back in 2013. Her ninth studio album, ‘Did you know that there’s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd’, arrived in March.

Lana Del Rey is set to top the bill on the Other Stage at Glastonbury 2023 next month before headlining London’s BST Hyde Park series in July.

UV-Sensitive Swooshes Amplify The Nike Blazer Mid ’77

Over the years The Swoosh has toyed around with the aesthetic of color-changing details underneath the light and warmth of UV rays. While seldom in their offerings, the Beaverton-based brand is kicking off Summer 2023 with an expressive collection of footwear infused with shifting tones.

Embarking upon a Navy, golden yellow and orange palette, the Nike Blazer Mid ’77 remains removed from the typical color blocking of its upcoming contemporaries with a dominant crisp white contradiction. Save the dark navy blue quarter overlay, bright orange tongue tab and equally vibrant yellow collar lining, the upper’s remaining real estate assumes a clad-colorless ensemble. Enacting a necessary contrast alongside the suede grey mudguard and cream-colored sole unit, the model’s UV-sensitive materials touch down along the mid-foot Swoosh which shifts between an ivory cobalt blue hue.

Bearing an all-new sunshine motif breaking through a zipper, the latter inclusion at the heel tab and atop the pair’s silver cellophane packaging signals the beginnings of a UV-inspired collection spanning the brand’s lifestyle archives – which is set to include both the Air Force 1 Low and Nike Dunk Low. While we await further release details, in the meantime enjoy official images of the grade school-exclusive Nike Blazer Mid ’77 “UV Color-Changing” below.

Charlamagne Reflects On Getting Yelled At By Diddy

VladTV recently interviewed Charlamagne Tha God, and The Breakfast Club host opened up about the time Diddy gave him an earful for his on-air comments. The comments made by Charlamagne surrounded the promotion of Diddy’s 2010 album with Dirty Money, Last Train to Paris. “I’ll never forget Diddy yelling and screaming at me,” he shared, “This is before I recognized, truly, the power that the platform was commanding.”

Charlamagne continued, “This is when he dropped the Last Train to Paris album and I gave him ‘Donkey of the Day’ for that album. I’m like, ‘Yo, this shit is shake weight music.’ Once again, being an asshole because people loved that album! But I’m just f*cking with him.” The host revealed, “He came to the station hot. Like, ‘Go out the back door, Charlamagne’ type shit.” He went on to say, “I remember when I finally had a conversation with Diddy about it … Shawn Prez put us on the phone. And Diddy was like, ‘Bro, you can’t do that on my first week.’”

Charlamagne Trashed Diddy’s Album

Charlamagne went on to claim Diddy said, “‘I’m a big boy, I can take criticism of the music, but not on my first week when I’m tryna get these first week numbers up. You come out and you shit on my project like this, people might not go check for the project.’ And that was one of the first times I was like, ‘Oh shit, he’s right, you know?’”

In the interview, Charlamagne also discussed the recent departure of his fellow Breakfast Club host, Angela Yee. “She left Breakfast Club because she got the opportunity to do her own nationally syndicated show,” he revealed. “Way Up With Angela Yee is a nationally syndicated show it comes on 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. right after The Breakfast Club, and I think that would be hard for anybody to pass up … Angela Yee never got the opportunity to host her own show on terrestrial radio,” the host explained.

GloRilla’s New “Lick Or Sum” Single Samples “Slob On My Nob”: Stream

In 2022, Memphis-based rap diva GloRilla made her mark on the world thanks to the far-reaching success of “F.N.F. (Let’s Go)” and its remix. On top of that, she also delivered her debut EP, Anyways, Life’s Great… which saw her link up with Cardi B for another fan favourite, “Tomorrow 2.” So far, this year has seen her showing out with equal intensity. We’ve heard her deliver collaborations like “On Wat U On” with Moneybagg Yo and “Internet Trolls” alongside Hitkidd.

On Tuesday (May 23), Big Glo stood out from the New Music Friday crowd with her latest single. “Lick Or Sum” came along with a twerk-filled music video this afternoon. It samples 2000’s “Slob On My Nob” from Tear Da Club Up Thugs, Three 6 Mafia, and Project Pat. Filled with NSFW lyrics, the nearly two-and-a-half-minute-long track is sure to be heavily quoted on social media over the coming weeks.

While she handles the rhyming by herself, the new video finds her linking up with plenty of friends, letting loose and having fun while dancing along to her soon-to-be summer anthem.

If you are a fan of the Air Jordan 5 Low, then you are a brave soldier. Overall, this is not the kind of silhouette that gets a ton of love from fans.

Dricus Du Plessis Doubles Down After Israel Adesanya Backlash

Dricus Du Plessis has been fighting for a decade, but only recently made the jump to the UFC. 14-2 in the EFC Africa and KSW promotions, he is 5-0 since his UFC debut at Fight Night 178. While he is yet to get a title fight, it only feels like a matter of time.

However, Du Plessis has been making headlines for different reasons in recent days. At UFC 285 in March, where Du Plessis defeated Derek Brunson, the South African fighter made comments about how he and Cameron Saaiman were “African fighters” and that he would plans on taking a belt “back to the continent”. This earned the ire of the Nigerian-born, and current UFC title holder, Israel Adesanya. Adesanya, the reigning middleweight champion, expressed his desire to punish Du Plessis in the Octagon.

Du Plessis Responds to Adesanya, Fuels Fight Speculation

“I never said it wasn’t my intention,” Du Plessis told Submission Radio. “It wasn’t my intention because that’s not what I said, there was no intention involved. It was look at the facts what I said. I’ve never said the words ‘more African’ in my life. I didn’t say they were not African. I stated facts asI am the only one in title contention ever born in Africa, live in Africa, reside in Africa, and train there every single day. That was my statement. Some people say I’m backpedaling, I never backpedaled. I’m sticking with that because that is the facts. I don’t care how it came across, I care about what the fact is and what I said and that’s what I said.”

He continued, directly addressing Adesanya. “It seems to have struck a nerve with Israel Adesanya,” he continued. “It seems like he likes to be whatever fits him best considering nationalities. He’s referred to himself as a Kiwi, he’s referred to himself as Chinese, he’s referred to himself as a Nigerian. At the end of the day, he’s born in Africa, he is African but he does not reside here and that is the fact. That is what makes me and him different.” The comments have fuelled the potential for a title fight between the two men at UFC 293 in September. However, that is somewhat in doubt, given Du Plessis’ current plan to fight Robert Whittaker at UFC 290. This is a developing story and you’ll find any updates here at HotNewHipHop.
