held. According to reports, the incident occurred Friday (Dec. 15) during a Mobb
Deep performance in Belgium. The fan began fighting with security after being
kicked out of the VIP area of the club. According to sources, a the fan returned
to the venue with friends after leaving the club and the collective sprayed the
VIP area with bottles, injuring G-Unit member 40 Glocc. The rapper received a
cut on his hand after one of the bottles ricocheted off the wall, hitting him.
A brawl ensued, yet Mobb Deep and 40 Glocc left the club safely. The Belgium show
was one of a series of performances on Mobb Deep’s European tour. Mobb Deep will
appear in Athens, Greece tonight (Dec. 20), Dublin, Ireland on Thursday (Dec.
21) and Munich, Germany on Friday Dec. 22). Once the tour wraps, 40 Glocc will
return to the United States to promote his upcoming mixtape. The DJ Whoo Kid hosted
project will hit stores in January. Popular
Brooklyn record store Beat Street has officially closed its doors, citing a downturn
in record sales. According to reports, the legendary store, which was opened in
1995 on Fulton Street, could not compete with the Internet, a trend that has also
forced the shutdown of numerous mom and pop stores and majors like Tower Records,
which will close all stores by the end of 2006.
WWE champion rapper John Cena is preparing for a battle, with Britney Spears’

a challenge to Cena. "The real Kevin Federline never backs down from a challenge,"
Federline said on Monday Night Raw in Washington, D.C. "Make all your jokes,
because New Year’s Day I’m the one who is going to be laughing. Oh yeah, Cena,
my name is not K-Fed, it’s Kevin Federline, b***h, and I want some and I’m gonna
get some."
