Doechii announces Live from the Swamp tour to mark the end of an era: 'Let's close it out together'
The Florida-born rapper made the album announcement during her Lollapalooza performance on Saturday. The self-proclaimed 'Swamp Princess' has spoken: We're nearing the end of the Alligator era. On Monday, Doechii confirmed the plan for her upcoming 'Live from the Swamp' tour to celebrate the one-year anniversary of her breakout mixtape, Alligator Bites Never Heal. The Tampa, Fla., native will kick things off in Chicago on Oct. 14 and conclude her run in Seattle on Nov. 11. She'll take 'Live from the Swamp,' her first headlining tour, to a total of 12 cities before closing this chapter of her career. 'One last time,' she wrote in a post on Instagram. 'this project just turned one, and before i disappear to create the next world, I'm going back on tour. the final chapter of this era. Thank you for the memories, the magic, the love. —let's close it out together.' Doechii first announced the tour during her performance at Chicago's Lollapalooza festival on Saturday. She ended her set by telling the crowd, 'Before we get out of here, I wanted to make an announcement. I'm gonna be going on tour on Oct. 14. What's up, y'all? Bye!' Cameras then followed the rapper offstage as she got into the driver's seat of a white Nissan Altima with the words 'Doechii Tour' written on it. With Alligator Bites Never Heal, Doechii boldly set herself apart from the pack; with its swampy sound and fierce lyricism, it's as polished as it is gritty. She's focused and self-realized, but she isn't immune to a meltdown either. Doechii is an artist recognized for her intentionality. When putting together the track list for Alligator, the 'Nosebleeds' hitmaker wanted to ensure that it gave an honest if imperfect picture of what she endured and when she endured it. 'It was important for us to go in chronological order of what has happened to me, how that has made me feel, how I overcame it, and where I am now,' Doechii told Rolling Stone in 2024. 'That was my goal — for us to hurt in the beginning, for us to heal in the middle, and for us to celebrate at the end. And that's why I feel it doesn't feel long, because you're on a journey emotionally.' It wasn't long before Alligator Bites Never Heal received wide recognition. It earned Doechii her first-ever Grammy win for Best Rap Album, making her only the third woman to ever receive the honor, following Lauryn Hill and Cardi B. In addition to receiving Grammy nominations for Best New Artist and Best Rap Performance for her track, 'Nissan Altima,' the mixtape earned Doechii her first top-10 charting album on the Billboard 200. She also took home the honor for Best Female Hip-Hop Artist at the 2025 BET Awards, at which she spoke out against the immigration raids in the U.S. Even with one of the year's most critically acclaimed releases, Doechii isn't keen on calling herself a superstar just yet. 'We don't really have a superstar of this generation just yet, because there hasn't been enough time,' Doechii told British Vogue last month. 'When I look at pop culture right now, I'm just trying to figure out, 'OK, what does a Doechii superstar look like? What does it take to make that?' I have no clue. I'm still figuring it out.' While Doechii hasn't disclosed much about her upcoming record, the rapper told Variety last year that she intends to release her debut studio album in 2025. Solve the daily Crossword

Mexican band Latin Mafia helps carry the flag for Latin music at this summer's Lollapalooza
On the last night of Lollapalooza Sunday, festival goers had a choice to make: A$AP Rocky, Sabrina Carpenter or Latin Mafia. Latin Mafia, formed in 2021, is a Mexican indie pop band of three brothers, twins Milton and Emilio and Mike de la Rosa. Their debut Lollapalooza performance on the Grove stage in Grant Park was, in a word, hectic: Milton and Emilio each ripped off their shirts, one of them scaled the stage's scaffolding and the other threw himself into the crowd. The band brought out Omar Apollo, a Mexican American alternative artist, to join the ruckus. Latin Mafia's appearance at Lollapalooza felt, to many, like a tribute to Latin music. The band, after all, is not nearly as famous as 2023 headliner Karol G, who, along with artists like Bad Bunny, have brought Latin artists more of a mainstream following in the United States over the last few years. Alongside The Marías, Young Miko and Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso, the de la Rosa brothers made sure that Latin music was heard at this summer's festival. Many of their fans, though, said they wished that Lollapalooza organizers C3 Presents could do more to highlight Spanish-language performers — especially given that Latino and Hispanic people make up nearly 30% of Chicago's population. 'Being Mexican, it's awesome to see artists that are also Mexican on stage,' said Giselle, a 26-year-old from Chicago who asked to use only her first name. 'I wish that there was more, because there's good music being made in our community, and I wish that they were given the spotlight a little more.' Chicago residents Jose Perez, 38, and Kat Diaz, 30, worked a bar at Lollapalooza but managed to make it to Latin Mafia's and Young Miko's performances. They have both worked Sueños, too, the Latin music festival earlier in the summer in Grant Park also organized by C3 Presents. While Sueños gives Chicagoans the opportunity to celebrate Latin music, Perez and Diaz both pointed out that Lollapalooza draws in a much bigger crowd and therefore provides more exposure for its performers. 'To have a platform here for Latin music would be huge, not only for Latinos, but for the general population, because it's growing so much,' Perez said. Noah Estrada, 27, who lives in San Diego County, has been to a number of music festivals over the years, including Coachella in Southern California, Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas and Portola in San Francisco. Estrada has noticed that these big festivals tend to bring out the same Latin performers, as if they 'travel in packs.' 'It's whatever's trending that year,' he said. 'You'll get The Marías and some of these other big Latin names together all at once, instead of on their own.' (María Zardoya, lead singer of The Marías, was born in Puerto Rico and often incorporates Spanish into her songs). Latin Mafia, for instance, performed at Coachella in 2024. Estrada appreciates how they use synthesizers in their unique sound, and being half-Mexican, he has a bit of a sentimental reason for choosing the band to be his Lollapalooza closer. The crowd that gathered to hear Latin Mafia took over The Grove, shouting excitedly in Spanish when Milton or Emilio urged them on. Almost everything the band members said or sang during their show was in Spanish, which didn't seem to pose a language barrier for anyone in the crowd. Jailine Cortez, Samantha Quiroga and Natalie Reyes, who are all 26 and live in Chicago, bought tickets just for Sunday. Reyes and Quiroga have been to Sueños several times, but never Lollapalooza, until now, because it didn't seem to have much of a draw for Latin music fans. As Latin Mafia sang its final number, the brothers passed around a Mexican flag. 'I love to see Mexican representation anywhere in the world,' Giselle said. 'It makes me so proud.' As he walked up and down the stage, singing in melodic Spanish, one of the twins wrapped the flag around his shoulders. The red, white and green trailed behind him like a cape.

Who Is Luiza Rozova? Putin's Alleged Love Child Breaks Silence
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Elizaveta Krivonogikh, also known as Luiza Rozova, has gone public with sharp criticism of Russian President Vladimir Putin—her alleged father—more than a year after vanishing from social media. Now living in Paris under a new name, she's distancing herself from the Kremlin and the luxury lifestyle she once displayed online. In a series of Telegram posts obtained by the German newspaper Bild, Krivonogikh wrote about a man "who took millions of lives and destroyed mine." The 22-year-old did not name Putin directly, but the reference was widely interpreted as her first public break with the Russian leader. "It's liberating to be able to show my face to the world again," she added. "It reminds me of who I am and who destroyed my life." A New Life in Paris Born in St. Petersburg in 2003, Krivonogikh has been long rumored to be the daughter of Putin and former cleaner Svetlana Krivonogikh. After Luiza's birth, her mother's financial fortunes rose sharply. While there has never been official confirmation of Putin's paternity, Krivonogikh's patronymic—Vladimirovna—and past investigative reports have fueled speculation for years.

In this pool photograph distributed by the Russian state agency Sputnik, Russia's President Vladimir Putin visits the Valaam Monastery on Valaam island in the northern portion of Lake Ladoga, on August 1, 2025. On right, Elizaveta Krivonogikh. More Getty Images / Telegram She once posted regularly on Instagram, sharing photos of private jets, elite nightclubs and designer fashion. But her account disappeared around the time Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. Now, according to multiple reports, she goes by Elizaveta Rudnova and works at two Paris art galleries—L Galerie in Belleville and Espace Albatros in Montreuil—both known for hosting anti-war exhibitions. She graduated from the ICART School of Cultural and Art Management in 2024 and helps organize shows and produce video content. Caught Between Politics Krivonogikh's new life has not been without controversy. Russian artist Nastya Rodionova, who fled Russia after the invasion of Ukraine, ended her collaboration with both galleries after learning of Krivonogikh's involvement. "It is inadmissible to allow a person who comes from a family of beneficiaries of the regime to come into confrontation with the victims of that regime," Rodionova said in a public statement. Krivonogikh defended herself, asking, "Am I really responsible for the activities of my family, who can't even hear me?" Some in the Paris art community have supported her. Dmitry Dolinsky, who runs the association that oversees both galleries, told Bild: "She looks like Putin, but so do 100,000 other people. I haven't seen a DNA test." Others described her as cultured and committed to her work. Her mother was sanctioned by the United Kingdom in 2023 over her ties to Putin's inner circle. Krivonogikh has since traded designer labels for activism, signaling a full break from the image she once embraced. "My life is ruined," she wrote recently, referencing the man she holds responsible for both personal and national destruction. She now appears focused on rebuilding her identity—and making it clear that she wants no part of the legacy she inherited.
