The rapper’s latest prison snapshots, posted to Instagram, quickly lit up his comments section with disbelief, jokes and confusion.

One user wrote, “N#### look like a school desk.” Another asked, “Why would he do that to his face” while a third chimed in, “He’ll definitely be coming home to Chrisean. I’m sure she’ll be the ONLY one who’d find this attractive now.”

The photos come as speculation swirls around Blueface’s potential release.

Earlier this month, his father shared an update on Instagram, writing, “It’s been a long road y’all with good behavior he’s coming home next month about 35 lbs heavier.”

His mother, Karlissa Saffold Harvey, has already started planning a “coming home” party in anticipation of his return.

This latest post follows the ongoing saga between Blueface and Chrisean Rock, whose turbulent relationship has played out publicly for months.

After exchanging vows during a jailhouse phone call, the two split repeatedly.

At one point, Blueface had Chrisean evicted from his home after learning about her new relationship. His father packed up her belongings and moved them into storage.

Despite the eviction, Blueface later allowed Chrisean and their son to return temporarily, citing her lack of housing.

The two continued to argue over parenting and finances, with Blueface demanding she stay home and Chrisean insisting she needed to work.

Chrisean has since said she no longer trusts Blueface and has chosen to “disassociate” from him.

The drama escalated further when Chrisean claimed Kehlani told her she had once been intimate with Blueface—an allegation Kehlani strongly denied.

Blueface remains incarcerated at Lancaster State Prison as of Sunday (July 13).

Cardi B Fires Back At BBL Smell Rumors In No-Filter Rant

By: London JennnCategory: Rumors

Cardi B shut down viral gossip about her body in a no-holds-barred Twitter Spaces rant Friday (July 11) after rumors swirled that her Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) had a foul odor and allegedly drove a wedge between her and boyfriend Stefon Diggs.

“First of all, I don’t know who made that up,” Cardi said during the X (Twitter) Spaces chat. “But b####, that’s you … That’s on you, b####. That could never be me.”

The speculation kicked off earlier the week after Cardi wiped Diggs from her Instagram, prompting online chatter that the NFL star dumped her over what some posts called a “BBL smell.”

Some of the more viral claims quoted Diggs as saying her body “smelled like a trash bag” or “garbage truck juice.” Diggs, however, publicly denied ever saying anything of the sort, calling the rumors “cap.”

Cardi didn’t hold back as she addressed the claims head-on, reminding listeners of her past and her hygiene standards.

“B####, I was a f###### stripper; you had to smell good all the time,” she said. “I was raised by women, like please.”

50 Cent Trolls Lil Meech Over Allegations He Made Friend Take Rap For Gun & Drug Charges

By: London JennnCategory: News

50 Cent dragged Lil Meech through the mud this week after reposting claims that the BMF actor pinned gun and drug charges on a sleeping friend—then apologized and offered to pay him back.

The trolling began when 50 Cent shared a screenshot of Michael Rainey Jr.‘s Instagram feed, featuring highlights that included the Power Book II: Ghost star ringing the bell at the New York Stock Exchange and modeling for Tommy Hilfiger.

In the caption, 50 took a jab at Meech, writing, “I’m proud of you @michaelraineyjr. I looked at your page, oh s###! LOL SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DON’T USE DRUGS, AND SPEND ALL YOUR MONEY ON CHROME HEART JEANS.”

By early Saturday morning, 50 Cent doubled down, reposting footage and screenshots from an alleged former friend of Lil Meech who claimed Meech let him take the fall during a police stop.

One clip appeared to show bodycam footage of a search, while another post featured alleged audio of Meech apologizing for the incident.

50 didn’t hold back. He mocked Meech—whom he now calls “Meme”—with another caption that read, “SMH MEME is a private school kid he ain’t from the streets. oh my God, he didn’t hear the director say cut !”

50 Cent Taunts LiL Meech Over Rehab Claims

This isn’t the first time 50 Cent has gone after Meech. Their relationship soured in 2025 after years of collaboration on the BMF series. Since then, 50 has taken repeated shots at Meech online and in interviews.

He once posted a photo of Meech slumped in a wheelchair, soundtracked with Amy Winehouse’s “Rehab,” and claimed he had to send Meech to treatment during filming. “High as f### on set,” 50 said, blaming Big Meech—Meech’s father—for ignoring the issue.

50 also accused Big Meech of being an absent parent, claiming he never paid for acting classes and wore his son’s jewelry.

The feud stemmed from Big Meech appearing in a video with Rick Ross, one of 50’s longtime rivals, promoting Big Meech’s “Welcome Home” concert.

50 Cent has repeatedly stated that his efforts to help the Flenory family were taken for granted and that Meech was being “used” by others and left to fend for himself.

Beyoncé Show Turns Dangerous As Bug Scare Triggers Stampede

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Beyoncé drew tens of thousands to her Cowboy Carter tour stop in Atlanta, but the night ended in chaos when a bug sighting led to an escalator mishap that injured 11 people at a nearby train station. The incident unfolded just after midnight on Tuesday (July 15) at Vine City Station, adjacent to the Mercedes-Benz Stadium, where Beyoncé had just wrapped her sold-out show.

According to Stephany Fisher, senior director of communications for MARTA, “Just after midnight on Tuesday, July 15, 11 people leaving the Beyoncé concert at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in downtown Atlanta were injured on an escalator at Vine City Station.

One person suffered a broken ankle, seven people were transported to the hospital with cuts and scrapes. And one person declined transport. Two people requested medical assistance after reaching their destinations.”

I heard ppl screaming behind me and pushing all of us while on the escalator before it gave out. #cowboycarter #altanta #vinecity #atl #fyp #ccwt

The chain reaction reportedly began when a 10-year-old girl screamed after spotting a cockroach, triggering panic among the crowd. “There was someone who started to scream outside of the station. She was startled by a bug outside, outside the large crowd,” acting MARTA CEO Rhonda Allen told the transit board.

Fisher added, “MARTA Police on scene said there was a scream, and witnesses said the person who screamed was reacting to an insect. I believe there’s also video on TikTok of a woman claiming it was a 10-year-old relative who screamed when she saw a bug.”

The sudden commotion caused the escalator to surge, resulting in a pileup of passengers. The equipment’s manufacturer, Schindler, later confirmed the escalator itself did not malfunction. “As previously stated, we are aware of the incident that occurred at Vine City Station on July 15. As reported during yesterday’s MARTA Working Session, the escalator was inspected by state officials the morning following the incident.

“And there was no indication of equipment malfunction; rather, preliminarily it appears that the escalator was overloaded beyond design capacity causing the unit to briefly accelerate. And the brakes to engage as part of the unit’s multi-layered, code-required safety system,” the company said in a statement.

Despite the chaotic ending, Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter tour continues to dominate the summer concert circuit. The genre-blending project has packed stadiums across the country, with critics praising her bold foray into country music and her ability to seamlessly fuse it with her signature sound.

Tee Grizzley’s Aunt Was Murdered in 2019—Now Police Think They Know Who Did It

By: Houston WilliamsCategory: Rumors

OK, this one’s a little confusing, but hang with us.

Detroit rapper Tee Grizzley has been carrying a heavy loss for years, the tragic murder of his aunt and manager, Jobina Brown, who was shot and killed in 2019 while sitting in a car with Grizzley on Detroit’s east side. Damn.

He survived, but his aunt didn’t. It turned into a cold case. Until now.

This week, police have officially charged a man with the murder, and he’s not just some rando. He’s a Chicago affiliate of the 600 crew with deep roots in the drill scene. They have strong ties to big names like Booka600 and Lil Durk.

Now here’s where things get weird.

Tee Grizzley has a known relationship with Booka600. In fact, Booka is the one who introduced Tee to Durk. All of this led to collaborations and even a joint mixtape. These were people in the same circle. WTH?

The man, named Woo, who was just charged in the murder is reportedly someone who grew up with Booka600. He’s been seen in music videos with 600 Breezy and other members of the crew. So how did a guy from Chicago end up in Detroit, allegedly gunning down Tee Grizzley’s aunt?

That’s what has everybody scratching their heads.

Police say shots were fired into a black Chrysler with Tee Grizzley and two others inside. His aunt, 41, was killed instantly. Authorities still don’t know if Grizzley was the intended target and don’t have a clear motive. Oddly, Tee Grizzley has never really addressed the shooting publicly and even once claimed he wasn’t in the car at the moment of the shooting. The report says he was.

So what gives?

Now the Iiternet sleuths and street commentators say there may have been beef between Woo and Booka. Grizzley was just caught in the middle, because how his homie get knocked for this case. Also, Booka was just promoting Tee on the gram a few weeks ago! Others believe it could’ve been mistaken identity or street politics. The idea that someone from Grizzley’s rap circle, extended or otherwise, was behind the murder is leaving fans stunned.

As for now, Woo has been charged and appeared in court. This situation is much more complicated than anyone thought. I am leaving the rest of this up with the news section. I’m tired.

Stay locked in.

Rapper Ca$h Out & Mom Convicted Of RICO, Sex Trafficking

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Atlanta rapper Ca$h Out can forget about picking up the microphone, because a Fulton County, Georgia jury just convicted the rapper of multiple counts in his RICO case over sex trafficking.

The rapper was found guilty of rape, pimping and aggravated sodomy as part of a years-long operation that prosecutors say trafficked women across Atlanta.

He was convicted on two counts of sex trafficking but cleared on a third. He was also acquitted of charges including sexual servitude, aggravated assault and maintaining a place of prostitution.

Georgia authorities accused Ca$h Out of spearheading a criminal operation alongside his mother and a third defendant.

His mother, Linda Smith, who also goes by “Mama Ca$h Out,” was found guilty of one trafficking count and acquitted of another and a prostitution charge.

Tyrone Taylor, the third man listed in the indictment, was convicted on all counts except pimping. Charges against Taylor included rape and aggravated sodomy.

The case, which unfolded in a Fulton County courtroom, exposed an organized sex ring stretching over the years. Prosecutors told the court that multiple victims were sexually assaulted by Ca$h Out and Taylor and coerced into prostitution.

Close to 60 witnesses were called, building a case centered on coercion, exploitation and alarming abuse. Several women testified that Ca$h Out or his mother took the money they earned from performing sex acts.

Some described being raped. One woman said she wasn’t allowed to eat unless she engaged in sexual acts for money.

Authorities also introduced a video from a prostitution sting as part of the prosecution’s evidence, arguing it illustrated the organized nature of the trafficking ring Ca$h Out led.

While the state charged Ca$h Out using RICO statutes usually reserved for mob-related crimes, prosecutors argued the organization operated like a for-profit criminal enterprise involving sex work and violence.

The trio is scheduled for sentencing later this year.

Ca$h Out rose to prominence with his hit single “Cashin’ Out” but had mostly slipped from the spotlight before authorities opened the criminal investigation in 2019.

Shannon Sharpe Folds To Tony Buzbee – Settles $50M Sexual Assault Lawsuit

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Shannon Sharpe has reached a private settlement in a $50 million civil lawsuit filed by Jane Doe, who accused the NFL Hall of Famer of rape, battery and deliberate infliction of emotional distress during a two-year relationship that ended in early 2025.

“Both sides acknowledge a long-term consensual and tumultuous relationship. After protracted and respectful negotiations, I’m pleased to announce that we have reached a mutually agreed-upon resolution. All matters have now been addressed satisfactorily, and the matter is closed. The lawsuit will thus be dismissed with prejudice,” Tony Buzbee revealed.

A post shared by Tony Buzbee (@tonybuzbee)

The case, filed in Nevada in April, was led by attorney Buzbee, widely known for handling hundreds of lawsuits involving Sean “Diddy” Combs.

Filed under a pseudonym, the plaintiff claimed that Sharpe raped her in October 2024 and again in January 2025, even after she said “no” multiple times and cried through the encounters.

“A woman can say ‘yes’ to consensual sexual relations with a man ninety-nine times, but when she says ‘no’ even once, that ‘no’ means no,” the civil complaint read.

Sharpe labeled the suit a “shakedown” and denied all the accusations, pointing instead to what he said were consensual interactions that involved sexual role-play.

Buzbee released multiple audio files alleged to feature Sharpe making threatening remarks, including one where he’s heard saying he would “choke the s###” out of the plaintiff.

The fallout for Sharpe was swift. Sharpe stepped away from his role as commentator on ESPN First Take and canceled his eight-city Nightcap NSFW Tour with Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson.

From Beats to Bets: Why Hip-Hop Fans Are Vibing with Online Pokies for Real Money Wins

By: Staff WriterCategory: Uncategorized

Hip-hop culture and online pokies for real money wins have created an unexpected yet perfect blend. This dynamic combination has transformed the digital casino world. The connection runs deeper than chance and stems from shared values of risk-taking, dreams of luxury, and the excitement of big wins.

Amazingly, online casinos embrace this cultural fusion today. They feature games that capture hip-hop’s creative spirit and energy. Some include graffiti-style slots and games based on the luxurious lifestyles of hip-hop stars. Let us explore this unexpected bond and its impact on hip-hop fans and the gambling industry.

Why Hip-Hop Fans Are Drawn To Online Pokies

Hip-hop represents more than music. It embodies a lifestyle of self-expression, hustle, and authenticity. This lines up with online gaming’s bold and strategic nature. Interestingly, the virtual reels of casino games also offer players a sense of control. It is similar to the confidence expressed in hip-hop lyrics.

Moreover, the cultural connection goes deeper. Dice games were common in many neighborhoods of hip-hop artists. So gaming metaphors flow through the genre naturally. In fact, artists like Jay-Z, Kendrick Lamar, and The Notorious B.I.G. use gambling to symbolize life’s bigger challenges.

Music-themed online pokies also create a perfect mix for hip-hop fans. The games have high-energy soundtracks and attractive visual elements like urban-inspired aesthetics. Not only that, but they also have symbols representing hip-hop culture’s iconic items. This includes gold chains, luxury cars, and high-end sneakers. All these attract more hip-hop fans to online pokies.

What Makes Hip-Hop Themed Slots So Engaging

The genre’s spirit is perfectly captured in hip-hop-themed online pokies. They feature immersive design elements that go way beyond the reach and influence of basic background music. These games blend visual aesthetics with authentic soundtracks. This creates an experience that resonates deeply with fans of the culture.

In addition, music acts as the heartbeat of these games. Hip-hop-themed pokies blend actual tracks from renowned artists, unlike typical slots with repetitive sound effects. For instance, the slot, Snoop Dogg Dollars, plays a hip-hop soundtrack and voiceovers of the rapper. They improve the gameplay experience by adding varied tones and energy to each roll.

The games also feature progressive jackpots and cascading reels that mirror hip-hop’s dynamic nature. Titles like Loaded offer impressive prizes that line up with the genre’s celebration of success. For fans who want both style and substance, online pokies real money brings that energy to life with real stakes. Overall, these games get what hip-hop is about: expression, risk, style, and stacking up wins.

The Role Of Influencers And Social Media

Social media has emerged as a battleground where hip-hop and gambling culture collide. It creates powerful ways for fans to find online pokies for real money wins. Hip-hop artists have evolved beyond making music. Some now serve as gambling influencers with massive reach. 

Some rappers occasionally also stream on platforms like Twitch or Kick while playing virtual games and engaging with fans. These streams give fans unprecedented access to watch their favorite artists win big or lose it all immediately. This creates deeper connections that traditional marketing cannot match. 

Social platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube have also multiplied hip-hop’s gambling influence. Artists show live gaming sessions to millions of followers. It makes betting seem normal in entertainment. Several hip-hop music videos also feature or have casino scenes and high-stakes gambling. They shape how audiences view the lifestyle.

Opportunities And Challenges Ahead

The fusion of hip-hop and online pokies creates exciting possibilities but also raises serious concerns. 

The online slot scene has changed dramatically and rapidly. Modern technology creates immersive experiences that appeal to hip-hop fans. Some casinos today offer tailored musical environments and AR/VR technology. This helps players connect more deeply with the games.

However, the slot industry faces major regulatory challenges. Laws about gambling differ across regions, from getting licenses to rules about ads. Hence, many hip-hop-themed casino games must adapt to strict gambling laws in different places. 

Protecting vulnerable people also remains a big concern. Young fans of hip-hop face higher risks from gambling ads that feature artists they love. Furthermore, managing intellectual property makes growth harder. Getting rights to music or artist brands needs complex and costly agreements. Smaller platforms often can not afford to work with popular artists, which limits opportunities for collaboration.

The Beat Continues

Hip-hop culture’s merger with online pokies goes beyond a simple trend. It reflects a natural development of shared values. The future of this cultural blend hinges on the ability of both industries to balance new ideas with responsibility. Players looking for genuine experiences will find more sophisticated hip-hop-themed games, while developers must work within complex rules to protect vulnerable groups.

EXCLUSIVE: UMG Slams Salt-N-Pepa—Says Rappers Don’t Own Their Music

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Salt-N-Pepa launched a lawsuit in federal court to reclaim the rights to their most iconic recordings, but Universal Music Group says the pioneering rap duo never owned those rights in the first place.

The legal fight centers on Salt-N-Pepa’s attempt to terminate UMG’s control over works like Hot, Cool & Vicious and Very Necessary, which include chart-toppers such as “Push It,” “Whatta Man,” and “Shoop,” among others.

The group served a termination notice to the label in May 2022, claiming the Copyright Act allows them to regain ownership after a certain number of years.

However, UMG rejected the filing and responded with a motion to dismiss on July 17, 2025, stating that the group had no legal standing.

UMG’s main point is that Salt-N-Pepa never directly signed away the rights themselves. Instead, contracts for those albums were inked back in 1986 by producer Herby “Luv Bug” Azor through his production company, Noise In The Attic.

UMG says that makes NITA the author and copyright holder, not Salt-N-Pepa.

“Because plaintiffs, as alleged, did not grant rights in the recordings, they may not terminate any such grant,” attorneys for UMG argued in court records. Under 17 U.S.C. § 203, only the original author or the person who handed over the rights can terminate that agreement.

Even if Salt-N-Pepa were somehow able to regain control of the original recordings, UMG claims it would retain ownership of remixes—especially the heavily licensed versions of smash hits like “Push It.”

The label notes that those are considered “derivative works,” which are protected separately and permanently under existing contracts.

To make matters more complex, Salt-N-Pepa are also accusing UMG of “conversion,” a legal term for wrongfully taking or controlling someone’s property.

However, UMG argues that copyright law doesn’t permit such a claim in New York and contends that the Copyright Act supersedes it anyway.

UMG also urged the court to pause all discovery in the case, stating that reviewing decades-old contracts, email chains, and documents is unnecessarily expensive and premature.

The label believes the entire case should be dismissed without going to trial.

A federal judge will decide whether the lawsuit moves forward or is dismissed, according to court filings made on July 17, 2025.

Clipse Brothers Pusha T & Malice Dog Travis Scott On National Television

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Pusha T and his brother Malice didn’t mince words when asked about Travis Scott during a rapid-fire segment on MSNBC’s The Beat with Ari Melber, brushing off the rapper with a pair of blunt responses that lit up social media.

When Melber tossed out Scott’s name alongside Hip-Hop heavyweights like Pharrell, JAY-Z and Kendrick Lamar, Pusha T responded, “Who is it?” while Malice followed with, “I don’t do that.”

The moment came during a fast-paced round of word associations, where the Clipse duo offered quick takes on some of the genre’s biggest names. Pharrell was dubbed “visionary,” JAY-Z earned “goat” and Kendrick Lamar was labeled “craftsman.” But when Travis Scott’s name came up, the energy shifted fast.

Melber, known for weaving rap lyrics into political commentary and earning respect from the Hip-Hop community, didn’t flinch. The Emmy-winning journalist has interviewed everyone from Meek Mill to Fat Joe and is often praised for his deep knowledge of rap culture. His show has become a go-to platform for artists looking to speak on both music and social issues.

The Clipse brothers’ dismissive remarks toward Scott weren’t followed by any clarification. While neither Pusha T nor Malice elaborated, the moment added another layer to the long-standing friction between Pusha and Scott.

A post shared by The Beat with Ari Melber 📺 (@thebeatwithari)

The beef between Travis Scott and Clipse, primarily fueled by Pusha T, erupted after an incident during the recording of Clipse’s new album, Let God Sort Em Out, in Paris. While Clipse and Pharrell were working in the studio, Scott entered, eager to play tracks from his soon-to-be-released UTOPIA album.

“He sees me and Malice there, and he’s like, ‘Oh, man, everybody’s here,’” Pusha T recounted. “He’s smiling, laughing, jumping around, doing his f###### monkey dance. We weren’t into the music, but he wanted to play it, wanted to film [us and Pharrell listening to it].”

The situation escalated when Scott played the song “Meltdown” but deliberately omitted Drake’s verse, which contained a diss aimed at Pharrell.

Pusha interpreted this as a breach of loyalty, declaring, “He don’t have no picks, no loyalty to nobody. He’ll jump around whatever he feels is hot or cling onto whatever he feels is hot. So, that’s where my issue comes in—like, dawg, don’t even come over here with that, because at the end of the day, I don’t play how y’all play. To me, that really was just like…he’s a w####. He’s a w####.”

Pusha T retaliated lyrically on the Clipse single “So Be It,” unleashing pointed barbs: “You cried in front of me, you died in front of me/Calabasas took your b#### and your pride in front of me/Heard Utopia had moved right up the street/And her lip gloss was poppin’, she ain’t need you to eat.”

The verse references Scott’s high-profile breakup with Kylie Jenner and alludes to her success outside of their relationship, even threatening, “But I got the video, I can share and A.E. it/They wouldn’t believe it, but I can’t unsee it/Lucky I ain’t TMZ it, so be it, so be it.”

“When I posted it, she said, ‘Mom, I cannot believe you did that,’ and I was like, ‘Alaynna.’ It just shows you have a lot of confidence. I’m just showing, you know, other children that you have confidence and it’s OK to have confidence,” Durham said.

The viral push reached another level when Project Pat reposted the footage on his own platforms, which helped spread it even further, with users from all over praising Alaynna’s confidence.

“I was just watching a movie and my friend Bella. She called me and said, ‘You know, you’re viral?’ And I’m like, ‘No, I’m not,’ and she said, ‘Go check your mom’s TikTok.’ I said ok, and I went to check it. I’m like, how did I get to this?” Alaynna recalled.

The video first appeared online during the weekend of July 2025 and has continued to trend across various platforms.

Samuel L. Jackson Teams With Sylvester Stallone To Play Ruthless Crime Boss In New TV Series

By: Mike WinslowCategory: News

Samuel L. Jackson is stepping into new territory with crime and redemption as he takes the helm in NOLA King, his first lead role in a television series debuting through Paramount+.

The 76-year-old screen icon will portray Russell Lee Washington Jr., a character set to make his debut in the third season of Tulsa King, which is scheduled to arrive in September.

The spinoff expands on the world built by Sylvester Stallone‘s Dwight Manfredi, introducing Jackson’s character as a federal prison acquaintance sent by the Renzetti crime family on a dark mission: eliminate Manfredi.

But what starts as a hit job turns into something more layered.

“Nola King follows Russell Lee Washington Jr. who, after befriending Dwight Manfredi (Stallone) during a 10-year stint in federal prison, is sent to Tulsa by New York’s Renzetti crime family to take Dwight out once and for all,” a synopsis from Paramount+ reads. “Inspired by what Dwight created in Tulsa and impressed with the possibilities of second chances, Washington returns to New Orleans, the home he abandoned 40 years ago, to rekindle his relationship with his family and friends, and to take control of the city he left behind.”

A post shared by Sly Stallone (@officialslystallone)

Jackson has kept quiet publicly about the series. Still, Stallone expressed complete confidence in Jackson being the right man to drive the expansion of the franchise.

“(Co-CEO of Paramount Global) Chris McCarthy came to me with a game-changing idea: to elevate my show beyond a mob boss series, creating a dynamic, family-driven franchise,” Stallone said. “I was immediately on board. Sam Jackson is the only choice to anchor this new adventure in NOLA, and David Glasser and 101 (Studios) are the perfect partner to bring it to life.”

NOLA King not only gives Jackson his first lead role in a full TV series but also adds to the growing list of projects born from Taylor Sheridan’s creative incubation at Paramount+. Sheridan will also serve as executive producer on the show alongside Stallone and Jackson.

Though Jackson previously headlined projects like The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey and both were limited series rather than ongoing commitments. This move signals a broader commitment to the small screen with an ambitious premise steeped in legacy, power, and second chances.

The third season of Tulsa King is expected to premiere in September on Paramount+.

Snoop Dogg Becomes Co-Owner Of Swansea City A.F.C. Soccer Team

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Snoop Dogg sealed a deal to become a minority owner of Swansea City A.F.C., a Welsh soccer club competing in England’s second-tier league, giving the team a splash of Hip-Hop stardom and international spotlight.

The 53-year-old rap mogul and entrepreneur steps into the football world alongside notable names like Croatian midfielder Luka Modrić and American investors Brett Cravatt and Jason Cohen.

Their collective investment signals a push to enhance the club’s brand and reach.

“My love of football is well known, but it feels special to me that I make my move into club ownership with Swansea City,” Snoop said. “The story of the club and the area really struck a chord with me. This is a proud, working-class city and club. An underdog that bites back, just like me.”

With over 100 million followers across his digital platforms, the Hip-Hop icon plans to boost Swansea’s profile well beyond the UK, helping the club cultivate fans and business across borders. Executives hope that expanded visibility leads to new revenue and strategic growth.

“It is very exciting for us as a football club to formally welcome Snoop Dogg as a co-owner and investor into Swansea City,” said CEO Tom Gorringe. “Dogg is passionate about this project and helping us continue to raise the profile of the club to as wide an audience as possible.”

To commemorate his involvement, Swansea installed a custom mural of Snoop, painted by artist Hasan Kamil, inside the West Stand of their stadium.

During past interviews, Snoop has openly discussed his interest in the sport and his fondness for football culture. He’s worn jerseys from numerous clubs over the years, but he told Swansea’s management that this feels different.

“During our conversations, Snoop spoke about having worn many football shirts without ever having felt a club to be the right fit for him,” said the team’s ownership group. “We are delighted that putting on a Swansea shirt has proven to be that right fit.”

The club confirmed the mural unveiling and Snoop’s official inclusion in the ownership team on June 1.

Nicki Minaj Says She’s “Snitching”—Summons FBI, CIA & Politicians Over Alleged “Threat”

By: Houston WilliamsCategory: Rumors

What is going on with Nicki Minaj lately? It’s honestly hard to keep up with everything, especially this latest situation involving her, SZA and now a rapper (or content creator?) named Mack Wop.

You probably already know the basics, but there’s something new bubbling up. Mack Wop is a TDE artist I’d never even heard of before now. He said something that rubbed Nicki the wrong way.

“Nicki, relax… Relax before you get put in the blender like your boy did.” – Mack Wop

It was a reference that she apparently took as a threat, and now she’s tagged the feds in several posts hoping they investigate or even arrest him.

Yup, she really tagged the Feds. And some politicians, too. Check it.

And Rep. Luna entertains this on Twitter.

Please call my cell? Before this goes on, let’s talk about Luna. Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R‑FL‑13) is a conservative and a hardcore Trump loyalists in Congress. She entered the House in January 2023. She has co-sponsored resolutions to expunge Trump’s impeachments and has proposed carving his face on Mount Rushmore.

Luna consistently votes “America First,” supports election denial claims, opposes abortion rights and pushes conservative economic and foreign policy agendas. Is it time to say she’s also a Barb? Maybe.

But it goes further. Somehow this now involves Tory Lanez.

This all happened on Thursday (July 17), Assata Shakur’s birthday. I just watched a long post about how the government actually persecuted Assata, and now I see Nicki is trying to get a dude jammed up. This sucks. Mack Wop is no Assata, and Nicki sure isn’t J. Edgar Hoover.

Still, it’s sad to see Black folks coming at each other like this—especially when there’s real chaos in the world right now, with Trump and everything else going on.

But back to the mess.

This whole thing is spiraling fast. Mack Wop seems to be enjoying the spotlight. He’s leaning into it heavy. Some people online are saying he might actually have a real federal case coming, but honestly…I doubt it.

From what I can tell, his “blender” comment was more about the Kendrick versus Drake rap beef than anything directed at Nicki. Some say it refers to some other online poster. And there’s talk that he doesn’t even leave his house, so make of that what you will. Streamers unite.

Still, a senator has now said she’s forwarding everything to the FBI. Yes, really.

So yeah…this is where we are. Check out some of the madness for yourself and let me know what you think. Is this legit? Or is it just another day in the rap soap opera?

Skepta Unleashes “Round 2” On Joyner Lucas

By: Houston WilliamsCategory: News

Skepta wasted no time. He’s fired back at Joyner Lucas with his new diss track “Round 2,” escalating a war of words between the UK grime legend and the US representative.

Coming off the heels of Joyner’s “Nobody Cares,” Skepta came back with a no-frills verbal assault. Over a dark production, Skepta flexed his global status, reminding fans of his triple platinum success in the states and more. He mocked Joyner for only going platinum “rapping in third person.”

He dismissed Joyner’s win over Tory Lanez stating, “I beat you in two lines.”

“I don’t do gimmicks. I do Guinness,” Skepta raps, blending nods to London nightlife and grime. The track dives deeper into UK slang and puts his foe on full blast.

“Round 2” arrives just days after Skepta’s guest appearance during Drake’s headlining Wireless Festival set.

Skepta’s Lucas dis drew mixed reviews, but many felt the whole battle was useless. Joyner Lucas’ “Nobody Cares” also received mixed reviews. Many have felt the beef needlessly pits UK grime against American Hip-Hop.

The ball is now in Joyner Lucas’ court.

EXCLUSIVE: 50 Cent Sues Ex For Millions, Says He Owns Her Life Story

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: Exclusives

50 Cent’s ex-girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins is staring down a federal lawsuit after allegedly promoting tell-all content online that violates a contract signed with the rapper’s publishing imprint, G-Unit Books.

AllHipHop has exclusively learned Tompkins sold the exclusive rights to her life story—including her name, likeness, personal experiences and all related publicity uses—to G-Unit Books back in 2007.

In return, she reportedly received $80,000 and was promised future royalties.

The document refers to those rights as “unconditional, irrevocable, exclusive and perpetual,” leaving no room for public commentary or monetization outside of the company’s control.

However, G-Unit Books now claims Tompkins broke that agreement by posting and sharing a series of interviews and videos that delve into her past with 50 Cent and their son, Marquise.

She claimed the rapper hit her while she was pregnant with Marquise in 1996, that he was physically and verbally abusive during their relationship, hit her in front of her daughter and “beat the mess” out of her in another altercation.

“Capitalizing on her recent notoriety from a ‘viral’ post commenting on testimony in the high-profile ‘Diddy’ trial, Tompkins has repeatedly and deliberately exploited the very rights she conveyed to G-Unit Books,” a complaint obtained by AllHipHop reads.

According to 50 Cent’s attorney Reena Jain, “Tompkins’ behavior was intentional—she explicitly referenced the very agreement she breached while she actively breached it, stating it was something that was ‘going to have to be worked out legally.'”

G-Unit’s legal team argues the damage goes far beyond financial injury.

The core value of those rights, they say, came from their exclusivity, which no longer exists once personal information circulates online.

“Jackson purchased these rights to preserve them for use in future biographical or autobiographical projects, but also in part because he was concerned that Tompkins would attempt to monetize their history and his name. His concerns were ultimately proven correct,” Reena Jain added.

The company is asking the court to do four things: order Tompkins to remove and stop promoting any media tied to her life story, award damages of at least $1 million, require her to cover their legal expenses and grant any other appropriate relief.

The contract also included a clause requiring Tompkins to indemnify G-Unit Books for any losses due to breaches, placing even more weight on her alleged violations.

GloRilla Set To Take Over WNBA All-Star Weekend

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

GloRilla will bring both street anthems and Southern flair to the national stage when she performs at halftime during the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game in Indianapolis on July 19.

The Memphis rapper, who has quickly climbed the ranks in Hip-Hop, was tapped by the league to deliver a high-energy set at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, amplifying the entertainment factor of the weekend’s marquee event.

The league announced her performance on X, making it official ahead of the WNBA Live festivities. Game tipoff is scheduled for 8:30 P.M. ET and will air on ABC, ESPN+ and Disney+.

GloRilla’s halftime appearance places her in the thick of what’s expected to be one of the largest All-Star celebrations in league history.

Two of the WNBA’s brightest names, Caitlin Clark and Napheesa Collier, will captain the respective All-Star rosters after leading fans’ votes. Clark’s presence in her home arena adds another level of excitement to an already packed venue.

Adding to her momentum, GloRilla will headline her own show, the “Glo Bash,” on July 25 at Memphis’ FedExForum, marking her first major homecoming event.

Team Clark and Team Collier will feature standouts such as A’ja Wilson, Paige Bueckers, Sabrina Ionescu, and Aliyah Boston. Rhyne Howard and Satou Sabally, originally part of the lineup, were ruled out due to injuries, with Kayla McBride named as one of the replacements.

Beyond the basketball, event organizers have infused the game with innovative rules. A 28-foot four-point shot zone is back, live substitutions will occur mid-play, and a shortened 20-second shot clock is in effect.

Teams will receive automatic points for fouls outside the final minutes, removing free throws from most of the mix.

For viewers tuning in from home, the televised broadcast includes over 20 camera angles, mic’d-up players, and on-court interviews. Additional ESPN content will stream simultaneously across platforms.

The weekend also features WNBA Live, a multi-day fan experience packed with music performances, interactive games, and celebrity appearances, held from July 18 to 19 in downtown Indianapolis.

GloRilla takes the spotlight just before Team Clark goes head-to-head with Team Collier in what promises to be a fast-paced matchup on July 19.

Donald Trump Diagnosed With Debilitating Circulatory Issue Ahead Of 80th Birthday

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: AHHplus

Donald Trump underwent a full vascular workup at the White House after noticing swelling in his legs, leading to a diagnosis of chronic venous insufficiency, a condition common in older adults, according to a letter released Thursday (July 17) by his physician.

The 79-year-old had a “comprehensive examination, including diagnostic vascular studies,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said, reading directly from a memo written by Capt. Sean Barbabella, Trump’s doctor. The letter confirmed that “bilateral lower extremity venous Doppler ultrasounds were performed and revealed chronic venous insufficiency, a benign and common condition, particularly in individuals over the age of 70.”

The evaluation followed Trump’s report of “mild swelling in his lower legs” over the past few weeks, Leavitt said. Despite the diagnosis, Barbabella noted there was “no evidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or arterial disease,” and all lab results were “within normal limits.” Trump also had an echocardiogram, which showed “no signs of heart failure, renal impairment, or systemic illness.”

Chronic venous insufficiency occurs when vein valves in the legs don’t function properly, causing blood to pool. It affects roughly 150,000 people annually, with risk increasing with age. Symptoms may include swelling, aching, varicose veins or skin changes. Treatment ranges from medication to surgical procedures in more advanced cases.

“This is a pretty normal part of aging, and especially for someone in the overweight to obese category, which is where the president has always been,” said Dr. Jeremy Faust, an emergency medicine professor at Harvard Medical School, in an interview with CNN. “But the bigger concern … is that symptoms like this do need to be evaluated for more serious conditions, and that is what happened.”

Cardiologist Dr. Bernard Ashby told CNN that while the diagnosis is not immediately worrisome, it could be a sign of something more.

“Even though he’s diagnosed with a benign condition, venous insufficiency, by itself doesn’t necessarily mean it’s benign,” Ashby said. “The question is, what’s causing the venous insufficiency?”

Ashby praised the medical team for “covering all their bases” by ruling out heart failure and other related issues. Dr. Chris Pernell, a public health physician, added that age, weight and a sedentary lifestyle are all contributing factors.

“If a person is older, a person is overweight, a person is not engaging in regular physical activity or exercise, if a person is sitting or standing for prolonged amounts of time, you can get chronic venous insufficiency,” she said. “And while it is not life-threatening, it can be debilitating.”

Leavitt also addressed visible bruising on the back of Trump’s hand, attributing it to “frequent handshaking” and his use of aspirin. Barbabella confirmed in the letter, “This is consistent with minor soft tissue irritation from frequent handshaking and the use of aspirin, which is taken as part of a standard cardiovascular prevention regimen.”

The letter concluded with a clean bill of health: “President Trump remains in excellent health.” Trump turns 80 next month and will then be the oldest U.S. president in history.

Nicki Minaj Fat Shames TDE President As Online Feud Gets Uglier

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Nicki Minaj escalated her war of words with Top Dawg Entertainment to another level by mocking the weight of label president Punch in a now-viral tweet, which has intensified a public standoff with singer SZA.

“TDE EXEC ALLEGEDLY WENT TO DR. NOW for his weight loss journey & they just called him & said it’s time to do the loose skin part now. Allegedly,” she wrote, continuing a string of insults aimed at both Punch and SZA stemming from a feud that began earlier this month.

Tensions worsened after SZA pointed out that her SOS Tour grossed over $113 million, which actually bested the $108 million earnings from Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday 2 tour.

After one of Minaj’s supporters questioned her success, SZA fired back with, “I get bullied by millions online every day then step my ass out onna packed stadium tour where ppl show me REAL love . IN REAL LIFE . My parents are healthy and I’m the most successful I ever been. GET SOME F###### PERSPECTIVE n BARK AT THE WALL !!!”

The feud began after Nicki Minaj accused SZA of being “fake” and dismissed her artistry, claiming she relied on auto-tune and wasn’t a real icon. Minaj escalated the situation by resurfacing old tweets, which she claimed were dissing Beyoncé and Rihanna by SZA.

SZA countered with receipts. She posted a texting exchange from 2020 showing Minaj’s team reaching out for a possible collaboration.

“You’ve asked for features twice to no response,” SZA told her. She also reminded the Barbz that she co-wrote lyrics for Minaj’s “Feelin’ Myself.”

Nicki Minaj is a Young Money veteran, like rapper Drake, who’s currently embroiled in an ongoing feud with ex-TDE artist Kendrick Lamar.

SZA, meanwhile, remains focused on her international tour with Kendrick Lamar on the Grand National Tour, with the next leg heading to Paris.

Guide To Best Weed In D.C. Certified By Granny Za’s

By: Brxton LeeCategory: Uncategorized

Washington DC might be best known for its politics, but there’s another green wave sweeping through the capital. A rising cannabis culture. Over the years, DC has carved out a unique and evolving marijuana scene that’s unlike anywhere else in the country.

This refreshing cannabis culture is making life a lot simpler for those who suffer and a lot more fun for those who are constantly seeking out the most exhilarating experience. 

In this guide, we stroll through DC’s streets and peek at the unfolding culture, discuss the latest rules and regulations, and guide you to the best weed in DC. 

What the Cannabis Culture in DC is Like

The city’s cannabis culture is like no other. Yes, consumers do still tread carefully when they are indulging in the pleasures. Mostly because they fear stigma. But the overall vibe for these, once taboo, products is mostly positive. Consumers are more open about this part of their lives and openly celebrate it. DC even hosted a National Cannabis Festival in July 2025 that celebrated the legalization of weed with live music and fun exhibitions. 

With so much positivity and many supportive communities to join, you will certainly find your place, whether you are a medical or recreational consumer. 

The Latest DC Cannabis Legislation

The latest changes in legislation are making cannabis more accessible than ever. Yet, consumers still need to step within boundaries or they could face penalties, charges, or even jail time. Let’s take a look at the most noteworthy rules and regulations that every consumer should know about.

Age Limitations

The age limitations haven’t changed since these products were first legalized. You still need to be 21 and over to be able to buy or consume these types of products, whether it is in flower or processed form.

Possession and Usage Regulations

Adults can only have up to 2 ounces of cannabis flower in their possession. They can grow a maximum of 6 plants, of which only 3 may be fully mature. You can also only gift up to 1 ounce of dry flower to another adult. 

As for usage, it is still best to indulge at home. Public use is strongly prohibited, and consumers can only receive their treatments on private property. 

The “Gifting” Market is Shutting Down

Since 2023 – 2024, DC authorities have started cracking down on unlicensed stores that gift cannabis with purchases of merchandise. A great many unlicensed dealers and recreational stores have been shut down, leaving only a few fully authorised dispensaries still operational.

If you want to buy weed legally within Washington, DC, then it is best to follow the right protocol. This applies to both recreational and medical consumers. The only legal route is by using the medical market. Fortunately, this process is quite simple.

Register as a Medical Patient

Any consumer needs to register as a medical patient with the ABCA (Alcoholic Beverage and Cannabis Administration). Consumers can self-register directly on their website or at the ABCA offices. Both DC residents and non-DC residents can apply.

DC Residents

Simply fill out their online questionnaire to apply for your medical cannabis card. Applicants will instantly receive a temporary digital registration card. This allows you to immediately buy from dispensaries for up to 30 days. In the meantime, your authorised digital card will be emailed to you. This card can be valid for up to 2 years. 

Non-DC Residents

Those residing outside of DC can also apply for a medical cannabis card. The procedure is the same, but the medical cards are different. There are five different cards in total that each vary in their validity periods. You can apply for a 3-day card, 30-30-day card, 90 90-day card, 180-day card, or 1-year card. 

For the application process, you will need a government-issued ID card and a photograph or selfie.

Visit a Licensed Dispensary

Once you have your temporary or permanent digital cannabis card, you can start shopping. It is important to only visit a fully licensed dispensary like Granny Za’s. When you present your card, you will be able to purchase anything the store offers. 

Buying Tips and Considerations

Image credit: Granny Za

You no longer have to be concerned about cash-only transitions when you visit these stores. Modern dispensaries accept debit payments. What you should be concerned about is product type. The selections at good dispensaries are truly baffling, and it can be difficult to make the right decision if you are still new to cannabis. Here are some important considerations.

Consult With Dispensary Staff

It is best to start your journey by consulting with the dispensary staff. Most employees at dispensaries are very knowledgeable and can help guide you towards a suitable treatment. If you are dealing with a complex condition, then it can be good to book a session with a cannabis consultant. These experts can advise a tailored long-term treatment plan that will offer you the best possible benefits.

Start Slow

Any cannabis veteran will recommend starting slow. Intense dosages can be overwhelming and might even result in an unpleasant experience. It is always better to start low and gradually work your way up to a more potent dose.

Consider the Consumption Method

There are lots of different ways to get your daily treatments. The most common consumption method involves smoking flower buds or joints. Vapes and cartridges have, however, gained a lot more popularity and offer a more pleasant experience since there are a lot more flavours to choose from.

You can also get your treatment o##### or topically. Topical treatments like creams are great for treating surface pain or skin ailments. Edibles or concentrates can also be consumed o##### and can be just as effective as smoking, yet offer longer-lasting results.

The different consumption methods can play a huge part in your overall experience and are worth exploring. 

Why Granny Za’s Is The Best Dispensary in DC

Embarking on your cannabis journey is going to be one of the best experiences you’ve ever had. But your experience can only be positive if you focus on a licensed dispensary that distributes trusted, quality products.

Granny Za’s is the best weed dispensary in DC to trust if you want the best buying experience and a positive outcome.

Ja Rule Gets Back At 50 Cent Over Viral Concert Video

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Ja Rule lit up social media Thursday (July 17) after aiming another jab at longtime rival 50 Cent, bragging about his touring income and mocking the rapper’s recent ticket promotion overseas.

Ja Rule went after 50 Cent because he posted a viral video to his Instagram featuring a phone conversation between a woman and her man, in which she asks if he wants to attend a Ja Rule concert, and everyone laughs at the high ticket prices.

@iamjas92

The post, which has since been deleted, still struck a nerve with Ja Rule.

“Ya’ll going to that Ja Rule concert???” he wrote alongside a video of his live performance posted to X, formerly Twitter. “Imagine trying to clown someone currently on tour making 6 figures a show you n****s cooked… \@50cent take notes like you been doing this what a REAL performer looks like… lmao.”

Ja Rule continues the “Where The Party At” tour, a run through North America with acts like Nelly and Eve. The outing is scheduled to finish in September.

Last month, Ja Rule clapped back at 50 Cent’s regular taunts by claiming the G-Unit boss was experiencing slow sales on his “Legacy” tour after fans claimed the rapper was offering a two-for-one ticket sale promotion to fill up empty seats.

When a supporter of 50 responded to Ja’s criticism by saying, “His tickets sold out, Ja Fool,” Ja clapped back with, “You sure bout that??? Ain’t nobody coming to see you Otis… I mean, Curtis.”

The online antics between the pair, who have been feuding for almost 30 years, continued when 50 Cent posted footage of a massively packed Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and writing: “How do you win a fight, if you’re fighting someone who is too stupid to know they lost? Just keep hitting them till they stop moving.”

Ja Rule’s “Where The Party At” tour wraps up in September 2025 in Little Rock, Arkansas.

It’s super corny, but it would be so fun to dress up a little dude.
