WHAT HAPPENED IN HIP HOP IN 2014? As the year draws to a close and you're dusting off your gym membership, it's easy to forget all the great things that have happened in the last twelve months. Here is our round up of all the weird and wonderful things that made up 2014.. ONE TO WATCH LITTLE SIMZ Here at Guestlist we're always looking for the next big thing! The newest star to explode on the scene is flying the flag for Team UK. Introducing, Little Simz, hip hop one to watch for 2015. Here's what you need to know: Age: 20 Endz: Islington, North London Output: 4 mixtapes and 3 EP's Making an impression across the pond, Simz's latest EP Blank Canvas was debuted on Jay Z's Life + Times website. She has toured with hip hop heavyweight Schoolboy Q and headlined her own show in New York. As the list racks up it is clear to see why Little Simz is sure to be on critics lists and hip hop heads radars. Ambitious and talented, Simz has a vision for herself, "to become an entrepreneur and humanitarian", and is using music as a tool to open multiple doors. Skilled lyricists Kendrick Lamar and Andre 300 have hailed her content and flow. You can expect her music to be defiant, witty, and dare I say the F word, feminist. Simz explains her dislike at being labelled a 'female rapper' as 'you wouldn't describe male rappers that way'. Simz has clearly laid her foundations this year and is set to take off in 2015, we'll be watching her closely.

Chris Brown and Karrueche are no strangers to a break up but both say this time it's for good! The newly single pair both took to Instagram to voice their opinions to fans and Chris Brown revealed some of the juiciest gossip of the year! According to Brown, Karrueche only visited him once during his latest prison spell in which he served 4 months for violating the terms of his probation. Further to this, Brown spectacularly claims Karrueche had taken 'secret trips toToronto to go on dates with Drake'! This isn't the first time that Drake has been at the centre of a couple's demise, given his track record with Rihanna. As if that wasn't enough, Brown took to Instagram again last Monday, to apologise to Karrueche for the accusations and the pettiness, statingthat he loves her and that he is 'young and dumb'. Can Karrueche forgive and forget? NEWS SPLITSVILLE Chris Brown and Karrueche Tran call it quits again… HIPHOP/ RNB
