(AllHipHop News) Two more women have come forward to accuse St. Louis rap star Nelly of sexual assault.
Two women claim they were victimized by the rapper on two different occasions, in an amended complaint filed by a lawyer for Monique Greene.
Monique Greene filed a lawsuit against Nelly on Monday, seeking an injunction against the rapper to stop his abuse of his female fans.
Greene claims she was raped by the rapper on his tour bus last October in Washington.
But the police declined to file charges because Greene said she would not testify against the rap star after her identity was leaked to the press and she was victimized online.
Greene also claimed Nelly was intimidating her through his statements to the press, which led her to her decision not to file charges.
Two new women identified only as Jane Doe and Jane Doe 2, detailed some of Nelly’s alleged bad behavior in the lawsuit.
Jane Doe 1 is a mother who is “happily married” and a member of the U.S. Military who was stationed in the United Kingdom for three years.
Jane Doe 1 said she bought VIP tickets to a Nelly show in the United Kingdom. She met with the rapper backstage, where he invited her to an after-party.
Nelly ushered the woman into a secluded area, where he allegedly accosted the woman, by putting his hand up her skirt, over her objections.
“Jane Doe 1 had no intention of becoming a victim. She was a well trained member of the military. She firmly took Defendant Nelly’s hand, removed it from under her skirt and pushed it back down to the side of his leg,” the lawsuit says.
The other woman in the lawsuit identified as Jane Doe 2 is a mother of three children, who is not married but is in a long-term committed relationship.
The woman, who is also based in the U.K., claims she was assaulted by Nelly after a show at Cliffs Pavilion in Essex England country in December of 2017. That would be just two months after the news of Monique Greene’s original charges hit the press.
Jane Doe 2 said Nelly offered her to come backstage, and she accepted, believing her friends had arranged something special for her birthday.
But things went awry, when Nelly brought the woman into another room, isolated from her friends.
“This time Defendant Nelly closed the door, stood in front of it, and dropped his trousers. Jane Doe 2 told him to pull his trousers up. Defendant Nelly started masturbating and said, ‘you want this d##k don’t you,” according to the complaint.
Jane Doe 2 said she made light of the situation and told Nelly that he picked the wrong woman, but the woman said Nelly became aggressive, put his hands down her shirt and ripped her top off.
Jane Doe 2 told him to pull his trousers up and they “could forget this ever happened.” The woman claims Nelly pulled his pants back up, but a short time later drop them and whipped out his penis again and started masturbating in front of her.
He said he wanted “to come in” her mouth and “all over” her, but Jane Doe 2 continued to evade and refused his advances.
When Nelly put the woman’s hand on his e#### penis, Jane Doe 2 to claims she snapped.
“Who the f##k do you think you are,” Jane Doe 2 told the rapper. That only excited Nelly more according to Jane Doe 2, who says Nelly forced his e#### penis into her mouth.
“Jane Doe 2 jumped back, twisted and fell backwards into the shower curtain. She was able to scramble out of the room. As she exited Defendant Nelly yelled, ‘c###!’” and allegedly warned her he would find her if she went to authorities.

(AllHipHop Rumors) Another one bites the dust. Word on the street is that the rapper known as Canibus has retired. Some of you weren’t even born when Canibus was popping. But he was momentarily one of the elite emcees. Remember his famous beef with LL Cool J? If not, look at the videos below. Anyway, apparently a producer – the infamously known as Domingo – tried to solicit the battle rapper for some bars and he said he’s focusing on his family. Look below.
THANK YOU, CANIBUS. Germaine “Propane” Williams was a member of The HRSMN, Sharpshooterz, Cloak N Dagga, The Undergods, and one-half of T.H.E.M.

(AllHipHop News) News broke this week that Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson of The Roots was named in a $2 million lawsuit over alleged racial discrimination. Cameramen Kurt Decker and Michael Cimino allege Questlove had them fired from NBC’s The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon because they are white.
Quest is denying any involvement in Decker and Cimino’s dismissal. The musician’s rep told Billboard:
Questlove denies the ridiculous allegations made in this lawsuit. Racism is REAL and exists throughout the world and for these gentlemen to claim victim is not only disrespectful to Questlove and his band mates, but to all that truly endure racism on a daily basis. As NBC already stated, the decisions made regarding these employees were made by NBC, alone.
The Roots have been the house band for The Tonight Show since 2014. They previously served in the same capacity for Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

(AllHipHop News) Erykah Badu found herself as a trending topic throughout the day on Wednesday. The online chatter was sparked by an interview Badu did with Vulture where she expressed that she could see something good in Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.
The singer took to Twitter to respond to some of the backlash she received for those comments. One tweet was addressed to “Black and Jewish” users on the platform, and another tweet was directed at the press.
“Say what u must. Dialogue is cool. I invite it,” wrote Badu. “But please do me a favor if you can, Black & Jewish Twitter, just don’t use the word ‘problematic’ any more. Y’all using that too much… oh and read the article.”
She later posted, “The media is banking on our ignorance. Know we won’t read the whole thing. They’ll use controversial quotes w/trigger words as Click Bait. We [love] controversy. So Blogs choose easiest thing to ‘spin’. Get you mad. Help you get a little rage out. They get more adds. The message lost.”
UPDATE:
Badu returned to Twitter to offer another statement:
People are in real pain. So I understand why my ‘good’ intent was misconstrued as ‘bad’. In trying to express a point, I used 1 of the worst examples possible, Not to support the cruel actions of an unwell, psychopathic Adolf Hitler, but to only exaggerate a show of compassion.

(AllHipHop News) “The Wire” star Michael K. Williams has accused a former friend of attempting to extort $450,000 from him.
The actor, who played Baltimore tough guy Omar Little in the acclaimed TV crime drama, was sued by his former associate Michael Kimbrew last year.
Kimbrew claims that in 2010 the 51-year-old star signed a deal allowing him to become a partner in his production company, entitling him to 20% of Williams’ earnings.
Williams has now filed court documents demanding the lawsuit against him be dismissed, according to The Blast.
In the legal papers, Williams accuses his ex-pal of filing the suit in a bid “to exploit his one-time friendship.”
The filing reads: “Kimbrew is a one-time driver and ‘hanger-on’ of Williams, who, having had his demands for money repeatedly rejected by Williams, now seeks to extort hundreds of thousands of dollars from Williams (by filing the complaint).”
The actor has accused his former associate of threatening his accountant and menacing him with the prospect of a “long drawn out ugly legal battle in the media and in the court system” if he failed to pay up.
In his original complaint, Kimbrew alleged that Williams’ money woes left him destitute after “The Wire” ended in 2008.
He claimed the actor would frequently stay on his couch and then signed the deal that made him a partner in the star’s production company.
He alleges he is owed $450,000, as his percentage of his former friend’s $2.5 million earnings from subsequent projects.
The case is still ongoing.

According to TheBlast, two cameramen, Kurt Decker and Michael Cimino, claimed they received an unsolicited, racist, misogynistic text sent from a stagehand on the set.
The two men claim they were fired after they complained to one of The Roots’ managers and another producer for “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.”
Decker and Cimino claim Questlove flexed his power and had NBC “fire all of the Caucasian employees involved in the incident.”
Kurt Decker and Michael Cimino are each seeking $1 million in damages from Questlove and NBC.

The new Spotify landmark hit headlines on Tuesday, the same day Drake’s pal, basketball icon LeBron James, became the youngest player in NBA history to score 30,000 points in his professional career.
