PinkPantheress Goes ‘Stateside' With Her New Single: Stream It Now
PinkPantheress was born in Bath, England, and raised in Kent, but on Friday (April 25), she came 'Stateside' for her latest single.
'Stateside' arrives three weeks after 'Tonight,' the lead single from her upcoming mixtape, Fancy That, which is out May 9 via Parlophone and Warner Records. The club anthem, which samples Panic! At the Disco's 2008 track 'Do You Know What I'm Seeing?,' hit No. 5 on Hot Dance/Pop Songs and No. 25 on Bubbling Under Hot 100. She joked that Doechii 'chewed' her up when performing the 'Tonight' dance backstage at H&M's inaugural music festival in Los Angeles earlier this month.

Fancy That will include seven more songs, but in a Reddit thread last week, the English singer-songwriter-producer said 'Stateside' and 'Illegal' were the songs she enjoyed creating the most. 'I really wanted to make music where it sounds like a statement is being made with the songs. I feel like that was what appealed to me, and it's something that I wanted to take on board,' she said in her Mixmag cover story in March, adding that listening to Fatboy Slim and Groove Armada while making the project inspired 'the size of the music.'
Fancy That is PinkPantheress' first project in two years since she dropped her debut studio album, Heaven Knows, which peaked at No. 61 on the Billboard 200. The 'Boy's a Liar' hitmaker dropped her debut mixtape To Hell With It back in 2021, and it reached No. 73 on the Billboard 200.

Doechii Styles Floor-length Braids With Miu Miu Look for 2025 BET Awards
Doechii was honored for her musical prowess and innovation on Monday at the 2025 BET Awards in Los Angeles, during which she received the award for Best Female Hip-Hop Artist. The 26-year-old rapper and singer, who earlier this year took home the Grammy for Best New Artist, celebrated the night with floor-length braids styled by her longtime hair architect, Malcolm Marquez. The 'Denial Is a River' creator collaborated with Marquez, drawing on her signature style and persona to create a fresh take. While the spiral braids on top of her head felt particularly familiar, the five-foot extensions swinging across her left shoulder were something new.

However, Marquez typically adds a braided element in many of her looks. Doechii's hair for the Grammy Awards was a braided crown extension tied on top of her head. Oppositely, Marquez put her in an afro for the 2025 Met Gala and flattened her hair, adding a front fringe and folding the spikey ends on top of her head for her Dazed cover shoot. Her BET Awards makeup was light, consisting of full brows, lash extensions, brown lip liner and a clear gloss. Doechii has famously worked with artist Dee, whose client list includes Ayo Edebiri, but it's not certain whether they were responsible for this glam. Doechii was also a Miu Miu girl on Monday, posing in an all-red, two-piece skirt and bandeau top set with the brand's yellow suede Arcadie bag, layered belts, colorful bangles and a Renato Cipullo Amethyst and Emerald Lucido Ring. Her acrylic nails were also the star of the show, square-cut and painted in an ombré red and gold on one hand and an iridescent amber on the other. Doechii's stylist Sam Woolf also put her in see-through, orange shades, wood hoops and Jimmy Choo sandals with purple flower accents. Back in February, Doechii made her rounds through fashion week, attending all of the major shows and opening the runway for Dsquared2's fall 2025 Milan presentation. Her runway debut saw her emerge out of an armored truck to her own track, 'Nissan Altima.' Instead of braids, Doechii's hair was teased up, blown out and curled, shining as the flood lights hit her.

Doechii blasts Trump, federal response amid LA protests
Hollywood is speaking out after mass protests in Los Angeles over federal immigration enforcement erupted over the weekend. While attending the 2025 BET Awards at LA's Peacock Theater, rap star Doechii used her acceptance speech to address the controversial demonstrations. "There are ruthless attacks that are creating fear and chaos in our communities in the name of law and order," said Doechii, 26. "Trump is using military forces to stop a protest." Tensions escalated June 8 after President Donald Trump deployed 2,000 National Guard troops on June 7, prompting backlash from public officials, including California Gov. Gavin Newsom, who said Trump's actions "flamed the fires" and that Trump "illegally acted to federalize the National Guard." ICE is carrying out a directive from President Trump to find immigrants living in the United States without legal status. The protests have sprung up against the sweeps the agency is carrying out in various neighborhoods. The federal response similarly prompted backlash from celebrities, who accused the administration of inciting the very violence it claimed to be addressing. Several stars have taken to social media to share information and resources, as well as to criticize the government's response to what they called peaceful protests. Celebrities tell all about aging, marriage and Beyoncé in these 10 bingeable memoirs Doechii, who won best female hip-hop artist at the BET Awards, shared her criticism of the Trump administration's response to the immigration protests in her acceptance speech. "I want y'all to consider what kind of government it appears to be when every time we exercise our democratic right to protest, the military is deployed against us. What type of government is that?" Doechii said. She continued: "People are being swept up and torn from their families, and I feel it's my responsibility as an artist to use this moment to speak up for all oppressed people: for Black people, for Latino people, for trans people, for the people in Gaza. We all deserve to live in hope and not in fear. And I hope we stand together, my brothers and my sisters, against hate and we protest against it." On June 8, Billie Eilish's brother and collaborator, Finneas, posted on his Instagram story about the protests, cursing at ICE and sharing that he attended a protest and was immediately met with force. "Tear gassed almost immediately at the very peaceful protest downtown-they're inciting this," wrote the songwriter, an LA native. Fashion designer Jeremy Scott also took to his Instagram story June 8 to call out Trump amid the federal government's response to the protests, suggesting the president's deployment of the National Guard, without city or state officials' request, was a means to changing the narrative behind Trump's recent feud with Elon Musk. Scott said Trump sent the National Guard to "scare peaceful protesters and make it a (national) news story. PR 101 folks." Singer and LA native Chiquis posted an Instagram video June 9, urging protesters to remain peaceful. "Your voice is powerful–use it with purpose. Protest peacefully, stand for justice, but remember: violence dims the light of the message. Stay safe, stay strong, stay united," she captioned the post. "Burning cars, throwing rocks at cops cars, vandalizing our city is NOT going to solve this." She followed the post on her story, sharing a video of demonstrators walking with signs earlier on Sunday, writing: "This is what you call a peaceful protest." Singer and "Mean Girls" star Reneé Rapp took to her Instagram story to curse out ICE, the Trump administration and everyone "complicit in ensuring that this happened," calling the federal response a "disgrace." And former "Catfish" host Kamie Crawford shared a lengthy pair of Instagram stories, expressing her sadness, exhaustion and shame for being less politically vocal as of late, but added, "immigrants are worth fighting for." "Even if you're someone who just wants immigration reform and better checks & balances, I think we can objectively see what's going on & agree that this is not the way. This is inhumane & it's harm," she wrote. "These are our friends, our neighbors, our families, our teachers, our TAXPAYERS. These are people. This isn't right."

Doechii denounces Trump while other stars at the BET Awards stay silent
In a room full of powerful, seasoned celebrities at the BET Awards in Los Angeles on Monday night, virtually all of them ignored the authoritarianism on the march in their host city. It was the budding rapper Doechii who exhibited rare courage and condemned Donald Trump's deployment of the military to Los Angeles in an effort to quell demonstrations against his mass incarceration and deportation agenda. 'There are ruthless attacks that are creating fear and chaos in our communities in the name of law and order,' she said. 'Trump is using military forces to stop a protest, and I want y'all to consider what kind of government it appears to be when every time we exercise our democratic right to protest, the military is deployed against us.' The Grammy-winning rapper's remarks, delivered in her acceptance speech for an award for best female hip-hop artist, constituted the only direct reference to the fascistic images unfolding in the city in an event that lasted nearly five hours. Where L.A.-bred icons like Kendrick Lamar, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg (who performed at a Trump inaugural event this year) took the stage and stayed silent on the matter, Doechii — a relative newcomer to the music industry — did not. The bravery was notable: Doechii potentially putting her fledgling stardom and rising popularity at risk to speak out. But with her speech, Doechii joins the ranks of other popular female rappers who have spoken out on social justice issues while prominent men in the industry twiddle their thumbs.
