Don’t expect any Jack Harlow fan hookups. While the rapper thought they were “so cool” in his days as an up-and-comer now that the “stakes are high,” he doesn’t want anything to do with them. Instead, he’s all focusing on his career and his upcoming album, Come Home the Kids Miss You.

Jack Harlow would’ve hooked up with a fan a few years ago but not now

During a 2021 GQ Hype interview, Harlow explained that as he’s become more famous there are certainly “more opportunities” for dating and hookups. However, he’s not jumping at all of them. “Ironically enough, you close up a little as the stakes are high,” he said.

Harlow continued, saying just a few years earlier the situation probably would’ve been different. 

“So a girl I would have invited back to my hotel three years ago, I wouldn’t do it now,” he said, before adding that there’s “a stigma around it.” The Kentucky-born rapper went on, reflecting on how his feelings have shifted over the years.  

“I remember when I was younger and seeing artists bigger than me talking about how there were girls that wanted him just because he was a rapper,” he said. “I thought that was so cool. I couldn’t wait till girls wanted me just because I became an artist. Now I have no interest in that.” 

The rapper believes dating ‘can be hard’ as a celebrity

No Harlow fan hookups. So what about dating? The “Industry Baby” rapper told the publication “dating is good” and that he’s single. Although he did admit that as a celebrity, dating can be challenging. 

The three-time Grammy nominee revealed that what comes with fame and fortune can lead to sleepless nights.

“Look, I have no problem with selfies and so on,” he said. “In fact, I am a bit of an attention w**** when it comes to that stuff. It’s when you are on a date, that’s when it can be hard to be someone of notoriety.” 

So while he likes the attention he receives, Harlow prefers to keep his personal life private.

The Reason Jack Harlow Gave Up Drinking

The “First Class” rapper has new music on the way. Harlow is releasing Come Home The Kids Miss You in May 2022. The album’s lead single, “Nail Tech,” is already a success despite Harlow calling it his “least favorite” track on the album

Not only is he dropping a new album, but Harlow has big goals. One of them is to become “the face” of his generation. Will he hook up with fans along the way? It’s probably unlikely given his previous comments but ultimately it’s up to the “Whats Poppin” rapper.
