EXCLUSIVE: Tekashi 6ix9ine Ordered To Forfeit Cash From Drug Deal

(AllHipHop News) The Feds are after a paltry amount of cash Tekashi 6ix9ine earned while he was running wild with the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods.

In addition to slapping the rap star with a $35,000 fine, the Feds are going after $2,000 6ix9ine made brokering a drug deal in Brooklyn back in the summer of 2018.

Just like the gang’s imprisoned Godfather Mel Murda, Tekashi 6ix9ine will also have to send his money to Treasury Assets Forfeiture Fund.

If he doesn’t pay the money, the Feds could start seizing his assets and property, although its doubtful Tekashi 6ix9ine would have a problem paying off his fines since he reportedly signed a record deal worth an estimated $10 million.

During his sentencing on December 18th, Tekashi 6ix9ne, born Daniel Hernandez, offered to pay the medical bills for several people whom he victimized as a member of the Nine Trey.

Tekashi 6ix9ine was sent to prison for two years after he decided to cooperate with the Feds in a RICO conspiracy against the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods.

Tekashi 6ix9ine’s testimony helped secure plea deals and convictions for all 12 of the defendants charged in the case. 

Tekashi 69 Will Be A Permanent Snitch! Does DaBaby Have A Sex Tape? Meek’s Baby?

(AllHipHop Rumors) Tekashi 69 will be home some time next year and, oh boy. will the world be a bit crazier than it is now. Well, guess what? There is more to this whole thing – just when you think you have heard it all. It seems like all that singing to the Feds has gotten Tekashi a permanent job snitching on people. TMZ reports: “In addition, 6ix9ine must continue to cooperate with the U.S. Attorney’s Office once he’s released from prison in any ongoing investigations where he might be useful.” That basically means he is stuck helping the cops/feds and others as they see fit. 

I could be stupid, but I think this casts a different view on his re-entry back into the game. Right? It is one thing to be a former snitch, but to continue to be a snitch at the beck-n-call of the feds!? WHEW!

Da Baby: It wasn’t me…

DaBaby has a sex tape or does he? I am glad he didn’t get up on this when it first broke. Too many rappers in compromising positions. Who wants to see ASAP Rocky naked or having sex. Well, apparently a lot of people, but not me. And that goes even more for DaBaby! Nobody wants to see all that! And DaBaby has made it clear that ya’ll didn’t see him either. 

I didn’t even understand what DaBaby was saying, but I gathered the facts from the people responding in the comments. And other reports. LOL! But the comments were comedy and really showed how thirsty women are! It ain’t just men! 

Is Meek Expecting A Baby With His Girlfriend?

Milano, Meek Mill’s girlfriend, is rumored to be with child and that would mean that it is quite possible that Meek will be a father again. They have been dating and all has been well. When they robbed her store, Meek came to the rescue and called out the robbers. She made the announcement publically so I am sure Meek knew she was gonna do it. 

Kanye West Debuts “Mary” Opera In New York With Major Tweaks

(AllHipHop News) Kanye West premiered a revised version of his latest opera “Mary” in New York on Sunday (December 22nd).

The rapper’s most recent production took place earlier this month at the Miami Marine Stadium and was accessible only via motorboat, and the star later revealed plans to take the production to the Lincoln Center for a second staging.

Along the way, the “Gold Digger” star made several changes, introducing an elaborate new set with tall rows of what looked like wheat on either side of the stage concealing the orchestra, and in the center of the stage underneath the choir, which was on a riser at the back.

Kanye once again appeared in the performance, sitting on a chair in front of a music stand downstage right as narrator, while the silver outfits from the Miami show were replaced with skin-colored T-shirts and sweatpants reminiscent of his Yeezy line.

Songs in the production, which included new arrangements of older Kanye songs and Christmas classics, were also placed in a different order than in the first production, and each audience member was given a program complete with each biblical reading, as well as each of the songs being performed, so they could follow along throughout the show.

While the show once again began over an hour late, the acoustics were significantly improved and there were far less technical blunders this time round.

TV personality Gayle King, comedian Michelle Wolf, and fashion designer Dapper Dan were all in attendance to support Kanye, along with his wife Kim Kardashian and daughter North West, who was reportedly a hit with the audience as the six-year-old made her way to her seat. 

Smino Drops ‘High 4 Da Highladays’ Two-Pack

(AllHipHop News) Smino showed up right on time for any smokers that may need a few moments to destress during those tense family get-togethers this week. The St Louis-raised rhymer dropped off a two-pack of weed-friendly tunes.

High 4 Da Highladays includes “Sleigh” featuring Masego and “Kushmas.” Over nearly six minutes of music, Smino ties together marijuana enjoyment and spending time with a woman with the Christmas season.

Smino (born Christopher Smith Jr.) made significant noise around this same time last year when he released the critically-acclaimed NØIR album on November 8. 2018. The Zero Fatigue leader’s discography also includes the projects S!Ck S!Ck S!Ck, blkjuptr, and blkswn.

This year saw Smi contribute to Pivot Gang’s You Can’t Sit With Us, Chance The Rapper’s The Big Day, SiR’s Chasing Summer, and Doja Cat’s Hot Pink. Plus, he made it onto “1993” and “Sacrifices” off Dreamville’s Grammy-nominated Revenge of the Dreamers III compilation.

One person took the opportunity to suggest that the 27-year-old was homosexual. An IG user named @_rastabrown wrote, “Did anybody see how he dub’d all the females lol GAY.”

Alsina fired back with a lengthy post which started by referring to @_rastabrown as a “bull dagging butch.” The “Today” performer then defended himself for interacting with his fans.

He went on to say, “Whewwww the loneliness & misery jumped out my nigxa! We’re days away from 2020. Yal folks gotta stop using gay as some type of slur & term of degradation. Especially when it’s who & what YOU are. Take a look in the mirror & learn to love yourself.” 

Meek Mill, DJ Khaled, Michael Rubin & More Host Holiday Shopping Spree For Kids

(AllHipHop News) REFORM Alliance co-founders Michael Rubin, Meek Mill, Clara Wu Tsai, and Robert Kraft, as well as Hip Hop star DJ Khaled and Brooklyn Nets player Caris LeVert, hosted a VIP experience for over 50 children. Each of the kids has a parent in prison for technical probation violations, who has been incarcerated for technical probation violations or had their probation extended due to a technical probation violation.

Philadelphia 76ers partner Rubin, Mill, Wu Tsai, Khaled, and LeVert started the day by taking the young people from Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Harlem, and New Jersey on a shopping spree at the NBA Store in Manhattan. Meek also traveled to Philly to host his own holiday toy giveaway for 3,500 kids and families at the Martin Luther King Recreation Center.

In addition, Rubin and New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft flew the children and their guardians to Foxborough, Massachusetts on the Patriots’ charter plane to watch the team play the Buffalo Bills for the AFC East division title on Saturday. After arriving at Gillette Stadium, the kids were able to meet Kraft and quarterback Tom Brady on the field before the game and watch warm-ups from the sideline.

The REFORM Alliance is a nonprofit organization committed to advancing criminal justice reform and changing laws and policies that perpetuate injustice. Rubin and Mill introduced plans for a bipartisan bill proposal to address issues with technical probation violations and penalties that people in Pennsylvania receive while under probation. The Pennsylvania State Legislature is expected to vote on their bill soon.

Is Stevie J Talking About Faith Evans In His Twitter Rant?

(AllHipHop Rumors) Stevie J had some sh*t to get off his chest on Saturday night so he decided to vent to Twitter.

The Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta star is known for his creeping ways on the reality show and being part of the infamous “creep squad,” his beef with his two baby’s mothers, and his transition to hubby to r&b singer Faith Evans.

The internet did give Stevie and Faith a little side eye when they announced their marriage. I guess we never thought Stevie would settle down anytime soon.

Well not sure if the two love birds who were very open about how in love they were are doing too good right about now. At least that’s what his tweets are alluding to. 

You know someone is mad when they run to social media to post some subs. At first, I thought he was talking about the Puerto Rican princess aka Joseline Hernandez and child support when he posted about sending $5k a day. 

A few hours later, Stevie was back on Twitter claiming someone hacked his accounts.

“Update: me listening to R9 by myself and refusing to release it,” wrote Rihanna on Instagram. The message was a caption for a video of a dog in a box appearing to dance to House of Pain’s “Jump Around.”

Rihanna’s last official album was 2016’s Anti. That LP went on to be certified 3x-Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. The project hosted the #1 smash “Work” featuring Drake.

(AllHipHop News) Two famous Oakland0bred vocalists linked up a new song titled “All Me.” Kehlani recruited Keyshia Cole for the collaboration.

“I’ve never had a song hype like this before it dropped. I’ve never had this much energy for a musical release! This is so incredible. I just wanna say thank you, this is some really epic sh*t,” tweeted Kehlani.

She added, “And this was accidental. this wasn’t my planned single, this [isn’t] a part of the [rollout] for my album… I put a snippet up & y’all made it viral. I’m putting it out because of y’all. Thank you!!!!” 

Kehlani’s name became a Top 5 trending topic on Twitter on Monday morning. The two stars then interacted on the social media platform in response to a reaction video about “All Me.”

O.T. Genasis Adds His “Never Knew” Music Video To Pornhub

(AllHipHop News) Last week, O.T. Genasis threatened to add his “Never Knew” video to Pornhub after the clip was pulled from YouTube. The Long Beach rapper apparently did post the vid on the pornographic site.

“Took my video off YouTube…Now let me see you take it off PORNHUB LOL,” wrote O.T. Genasis on his Instagram page.

There has been speculation that Keyshia Cole may have had “Never Knew” taken down from YouTube because the song is a remake of her single “Love.” The R&B singer recently expressed that she wanted her “classic” to be left alone.

“Damn Keyshia it’s like dat? I thought u was from da Bay? I thought it was California love A n*gga can’t have fun no more lol,” wrote Genasis on a previous IG post.

Future And Lori Harvey Are A Wrap!

(AllHipHop Rumors) We thought it would last forever, didn’t we? Lori Harvey and Future allegedly started a relationship out of the ashes of her soiree with Diddy. That was scary to some and interesting to others. Then came perceptive: the relative of Steve Harvey was no dating Future. Well, she apparently moved in with Future and it looked like it was in stone. Lo and behold, it was not meant to be. 

She and Future are kaput, allegedly. The word on the streets of Los Angeles is that she is now back in Steve Harvey’s mansion. Lucky for her, Future also lives in LA – but a penthouse. Steve Harvey rents and Future owns. Which is better? Steve renting apparently absolves him of having to pay astronomically high property taxes in a Hollywood home over 11k square feet in size. Future’s home is considerably smaller, but he owns it. I don’t know which is better but …

I hope Lori gets herself together and cuts the mess out. 

EXCLUSIVE: Salt-N-Pepa Settle Legal War With Spinderella

(AllHipHop News) Legendary rap group Salt-N-Pepa and their DJ Spinderella have settled a nasty lawsuit.

Spinderella sued Salt, real name Cheryl James-Wray and Pepa, born Sandra Denton in July, claiming the duo jerked her out of $600,000 in unpaid royalties over the past decade.

Spinderella, real name Deidra Roper, also sued for being kept in the dark about an upcoming Lifetime documentary series about the group. 

She also went after money she should have earned from the group’s 2018 residency at Caesar’s Paris Hotel in Las Vegas.

Things got nasty in August when the “Push It” hitmakers accused Spinderella of launching a smear campaign, while maintaining they had “always tried to do right by Spinderella.”

AllHipHop has confirmed Salt-N-Pepa and Spin have been able to resolve their differences. 

All upcoming dates related to the trial have been canceled.

Now, Salt-N-Pepa and Spin’s lawyers just have to formalize their settlement with Judge Karen Gren Scholer by December 31st. 

Iggy Azalea Announces Her & Playboi Carti Are Done Amid Pregnancy Rumors

Sooooooo, she not pregnant?

On Friday, Iggy took to the gram to let us know she’s entering the new year a single woman posting, “I’m single” on her story.

We feel you sis. We feel you.

Well not too long after, she posted a message stating how sorry she was for putting her and Jordan (Playboi’s) business out and she loves him and always will.

 

Not too long ago, there were rumors she and Carti were expecting a baby together and she was six months pregnant. Iggy did quickly post something to her Instagram showing off her not so pregnant belly reminding us that her body was still snatched.

We were lowkey rooting for this relationship following her breakup with NBA star Nick Young, who went back to his ex.

What y’all think? Is she pregnant and entering the new year single or was that just a rumor? Do you think she will get back with Carti?

Kids Book Company Claims Jay-Z Took “99 Problems” From Ice-T; Wants Lawsuit Dismissed

(AllHipHop News) The company battling Jay-Z in Australia for using his lyrics and a kid’s book is fighting back in court.

In November, Jay-Z’s lawyers in Australia filed a lawsuit against online retailer The Little Homie and the book’s author Jessica Chihaover over their book “AB to Jay-Z.”

The mogul claims they were infringing on his copyright for using lyrics from his classic song “99 Problems” in one of their books, which teaches kids how to learn the ABCs.

The Little Homie hit back at Jay in court, claiming the lyrics are not even his since he licensed the hook from Ice-T, who released the original version of “99 Problems” in 1993.

The company also denied that they are infringing on Jay-Z’s trademark, saying they printed a clear disclaimer stating the use of the artists’ names does not constitute an endorsement of their book.

So far, it appears Jay-Z is the only artist to challenge The Little Homie for lifting lyrics.

The Little Homie is also selling books featuring lyrics from Beyonce, Nas, and even gangster rapper 50 Cent.

Da Baby Said Dat Ain’t His Junk Exposed In Leaked Video! 😳

(AllHipHop Rumors) The internet, well ladies of the internet, mouths dropped and eyes went big after a leaked video of Da Baby holding his s###### was floating around on Twitter.

I mean everybody could not believe that laid before their eyes. You gotta actually see the video to know what I’m talking about.

The “Suge” rapper basically crushed the hearts of all ladies on the internet who saw the video saying in a three word tweet, “ion send nudes.”

Well damn, if it ain’t his, then whose is it? 

The guy in the video sure does sound like him. 

But then again, whoever that is in the video is playing Da Baby’s music in the background which makes me think if the person is trying to really make people believe that it is the rapper’s s###### in the video. 

Why would he play his own music? Kinda weird.

Word is, the video belongs to a p### star. But, who knows?

What y’all think? Do you think it’s Da Baby in that video?

Blueface Apologizes To Woman Caught Up In Chain-Snatcher’s Beat Down

(AllHipHop News) Rapper Blueface as involved in some drama during a performance over the weekend.

The rap star was doing the show at the Blue Moon Hookah Lounge in Los Angeles when some overzealous dudes in the crowd attempted to snatch his chain.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B6WfwC4liVL

The result was all-out chaos, as Blueface’s entourage beat the hell out of the guy who was trying to make off with his necklace.

Footage of the event shows Blueface’s crew stomping out the guy in the middle of the show.

Unfortunately, a woman who wasn’t involved in the attempted robbery was caught in the middle of the mele.

Blueface issued an apology to the unidentified woman after footage of the fight hit the internet.

According to reports, the guy who was stomped on suffered a few broken ribs and was sent to a local hospital for treatment.

Damon Dash Accuses Jay-Z Of Robbing Him And Enslaving Roc Nation Employees

(AllHipHop News) Damon Dash has accused Jay-Z of running off with the Roc brand and doing him dirty.

Damon, Jay-Z and Kareem “Biggs” Burke famously founded Roc-A-Fella Records in 1995.

In addition to releasing records by Jay-Z, the label had a stable of some of the best-known rap artists and the Rocawear fashion empire.

Years later, the trio would split up the businesses over a growing rift between Jay-Z and Damon Dash and ultimately control of the company.

In 2004 Roc-A-Fella was sold to Def Jam for $10 million dollars.

https://www.instagram.com/p/B6MegCQpuS9

Damon accused Jay-Z of devaluing the brand by disassociated himself with it, only to launch a new “Roc” brand – Roc Nation in 2008 – in a $150 million deal with Live Nation.

Damon said the root of the problem was Jay-Z’s ego. According to Dame, Jay-Z could not share the spotlight with his former partner.

“He wanted to be the boss and have people work for him for 25 years straight, which is what happened,” Damon told 92.3’s Big Boy during a recent interview.

It’s doubtful the legendary trio will ever reconcile either according to Dame.

“No matter what, I feel he robbed me. Period. And no matter what, I’m always gonna feel that way,” Damon said.

Cardi B, Nicki Minaj And Megan Thee Stallion On The Same Song? And DaBaby!

(AllHipHop Rumors) Normally, I don’t take kind to this type of stuff, but this time I am going to give it up. Pause. I did my normal look around the internet and saw that there was a song with Cardi and Nicki Minaj…AND Megan Thee Stallion! And I was running to hear it! I think my mouth watered on my tee-shirt a little bit too. And the end result was THIS…. 

I am cracking up! I looked at the video and saw my ratchet bae Cardi in all of her glory! And then some dudes start rapping and I am like….”WHO TF IS THIS?” Then I keep looking. No Nicki. No Da Baby. No Megan. Only Cardi! These dudes just trolled the whole world, saying that this song existed but just long enough that non of the people included could refute it. Now, I thought by default, this means Cardi WAS in on the gag, but we don’t know that for sure. They certainly pooled their money together to get her on the song in all her glory. 

Now, the song is pretty short. Do you think there is more with the other three artists? I would say no, but if they got Cardi, they may be able to get some of the others. Still don’t know their rap name so that’s a piece missing in the puzzle. 

So, whoever yall are…I hope this works out for you!!!
