2 Chainz, Rita Ora, Kreayshawn, & MGK Get ‘Wild’ in Tampa

Rita Ora and 2 Chainz

Rita Ora got up close with 2 Chainz at WiLD 94.1’s “Last Damn Show 14” in Tampa, Florida, over the weekend. The two hit the stage at the Tampa Bay Times Forum along with Snoop Dogg, Lupe Fiasco, and more. The “R.I.P.” singer signed one fan’s ass and kicked it backstage with Kreayshawn, who debuted her new pink and black haircut.

Machine Gun Kelly wreaked havoc during his raucous set. Toward the end of his performance, the “Wild Boy” jumped on top of a brand new Scion, leaving a dent on the roof. After realizing the damage, he came back to autograph the $30,000 car, writing, “One small step for Kells, one big step for my wallet. I fu**ed up!”

Check out more pics from the WiLD weekend below.

The WZRD frontman plays guitar riffs on the punk-influenced record. “It came together really organically, just how punk music does come together in a whatever, f**k it type of mood, and it ended up becoming something really cool,” said Kreay, whose mother was in an underground punk band.

In addition to Cudi, the album features the 2 Chainz-assisted “Breakfast (Syrup),” with contributions from Chippy Nonstop, V-Nasty, Sissy Nobby, Jean Baptiste, and Diplo.

Rap-Up TV: Kreayshawn Plots Azealia Banks Collaboration, Addresses Haters

Kreayshawn just wants everyone to get along. In Part 2 of our exclusive interview, the “Gucci Gucci” rapper calls for unity amongst her fellow females in the hip-hop community.

“The more we band together, we won’t be looked at as a rarity in hip-hop,” said the Bay Area native, whose debut album Somethin ‘Bout Kreay arrives Tuesday.

She’s already plotting a collaboration with Azealia Banks, who apologized for lashing out at her on Twitter. “It’s gonna have her crazy swag on it and it’s gonna have my swag on it,” said Kreay of their yet-to-be-recorded collabo. “It’s probably gonna be something that has to do with the ’90s since we’re both in love with ’90s style.”

Kreayshawn will hit the road with Rye Rye, Honey Cocaine, and Chippy Nonstop on her “Group Hug” tour this November. “I definitely wanted to do something for the girls and I think there’s so many females in the music game that we all kinda get separated from each other and it makes it seem like we’re less of an entity.”

But despite her positive message, not everyone is rooting for her. “A lot of people who hate on me are those weirdo bloggers who write extensive blogs about all this fake shit they made up, so I usually don’t read blogs,” she explained. “When people say stuff like, ‘You suck,’ I just be like, ‘You suck.’”

When she’s not in the studio, Kreayshawn is writing a book and planning for her future, which includes buying stock and saving for her kids’ college education. “I want to save money for my future so I can [have a] cushiony lifestyle.”
