(AllHipHop Rumors) I don’t know about the internet sometimes. The Game has been doing “The Game” for a very long time. First of all, we are always impressed by his lyrical dexterity. We are also impressed by his ability to beef with people are win – lyrically. Sure he’s put hands on some folks too, but we ain’t talking about that. We also are waiting for his album Born To Rap, but a recent lawsuit loss may delay that release. 

Well, remember when The Game rapped like Nip on that song with Dom Kennedy? No? Check it out. 

So, I didn’t mention this when it dropped even though the internet was killin’ Game, because they said he was trying to sound like the late Nipsey Hussle. I think that was the point! He’s doing a song with Dom Kennedy, who was one of Nip’s closest homies! So, I didn’t bat an eye. I think that the way Game mourned Nip so publically and THEN that, it got them all gussied up! LOL! 

Well they are all gussied up again now, because The Game has got a new hairdo that closely resembles his fallen comrade. Check it out!

These guys were friends! So, I am going to say The Game is still in mourning. They are looking at the hair and the beard and that is what causes them to have jokes! Real talk, their hair does not even look that close. The Game has had different cornrow type of hair. And I am realizing that I have spent too much time talking about men’s hair styles! LOL!!!

(AllHipHop News) Singer Cece Peniston has accused Lizzo of stealing her music.

Just a few days after producers Justin and Jeremiah Raisen claimed the hip-hop and R&B sensation had nabbed a lyric for her chart-topping hit “Truth Hurts” from them, “Finally” star Peniston has offered up another plagiarism allegation.

She has re-shared claims she previously made about Lizzo’s#### “Juice,” stating: “This is a clear example of #copyrightinfringement. Cece Peniston versus @lizzobeeating y’all check this out.”

She alleges the repeated “Ya Ya EE” line in Lizzo’s “Juice” is a copy of her phrasing in “Finally,” her 1991 hit.

But she made it clear she’s still a big fan of Lizzo’s.

Ironically, Lizzo has filed to trademark the phrase “100 percent that b##ch” from “Truth Hurts,” which the Raisens have claimed legally belongs to them.

“This is a really a sensitive issue ..I love #lizzos music and artistry,” Cece Peniston added. “My concern is that lyrics and melody that I wrote in my song #finally are now a part of her song ‘juice’ and I would like for us to resolve this in a positive manner.”

(AllHipHop News) Mary J. Blige has been added to the A-list cast of the upcoming Aretha Franklin biopic, “Respect.”

The R&B singer, who picked up a Golden Globe nod and Oscar nomination for her role in 2017 drama “Mudbound,” will join Forest Whitaker, Marlon Wayans, Audra McDonald, and Tituss Burgess in the movie, which will star Jennifer Hudson as the late Queen of Soul.

Respect director Liesl Tommy is raving about the final cast for the movie, which will depict the late soul legend’s career from her days as a child singing in her father’s choir to international stardom.

“I am thrilled with the incredibly talented cast we have assembled for our film, and I’m so proud that Ms. Franklin entrusted us to tell her story and to share it with the world,” the filmmaker told Deadline, noting producers worked with Franklin on crafting the movie before her death. “As a storyteller, hers is the kind of story we all dream of telling. Her music has inspired me since I was a little girl, and the milestones of her life and career have shown us all how to strive and thrive.

“To have this powerhouse group of actors – and the phenomenal talent of Jennifer Hudson in this iconic role – means we have the chance of making this film as transcendent as her glorious life and legacy.”

Aretha passed away last year, aged 76.

Respect will begin filming on November 1 and is slated for release in theaters next summer.

(AllHipHop News) Wendy Williams took a moment to look back on her “very tough” last 12 months, as she received her star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame earlier this week.

The TV personality filed for divorce earlier this year, after reports suggested husband Kevin Hunter’s longtime mistress, Sharina Hudson, had given birth to his baby while Williams was battling substance abuse issues in a sober home.

Wendy later confessed in an interview with Andy Cohen she was aware of “a lot of things” about Hunter’s “double life” throughout their marriage, but added his fathering of a child was “unforgivable.”

And as she collected her honor, the host of the popular “The Wendy Williams Show” discussed how she navigated the dark times, which also included a feud with rapper 50 Cent.

“The elephant in the room is that I’ve been having a very, very tough year,” she shared, as she was presented with her star by radio presenter Elvis Duran. “But slowly, but surely, I’m climbing out of the pit and this is one of those monumental days that makes me say, you know, if you don’t believe in yourself who will believe in you?”

She continued: “Sometimes life is a very lonely path and you’ve got to make some hard decisions.”

Wendy also took the opportunity to honor her son Kevin Hunter, Jr., who was arrested after getting into a fight with his dad in May amid divorce proceedings, as she tearfully said:

“There’s one person here that knows, you know, there’s no place like home, right?

“A little burning food in oven, time to run up to the grocery store, let’s go. Just mom,” she sobbed, before adding, “Thank you Kevin.”

Republican Politician Under Fire For Dressing As Kanye West In Blackface

(AllHipHop News) Some “old” photos have come back to haunt Republican candidate Karl Eversmeyer.

Eversmeyer is running against incumbent Democrat John Wisniewski for a seat on the Westampton Township Committee in Burlington, New Jersey.

But Eversmeyer is now facing controversy as photos of him wearing dark makeup on his face and hands surface.

According to the Burlington County Times, these photos are from November 1st, 2009 when he attended a Halloween party with his wife.

The flicks from a decade ago have been raising major questions about his prior statements and perspectives.

Karl Eversmeyer said he was dressing up as Kanye West in a baseball cap and white button-down shirt, while his wife dressed as Taylor Swift in a Supergirl.

Eversmeyer and his wife were reenacting an incident that took place at the infamous MTV Music Video Awards when Ye rudely interrupted Swift’s acceptance speech saying she didn’t deserve it.

“I wasn’t thinking about (race) at all. (My friend) wanted us to go all out for his Halloween party, and I did. I was voted best costume,” Eversmeyer noted.

Eversmeyer also said the fact that most of the people at that party were black proved he wasn’t a bigot.

Karl Eversmeyer remained defiant in the face of mounting criticism over the outlandish costumes he wore with his wife.

“An apology is an admission of guilt. I’ll never lie and say I’m guilty of being a racist. But today now knowing the history of blackface and that it’s not culturally appropriate, I’m better educated and will not wear anything like that again,” Karl Eversmeyer said.

EXCLUSIVE: It’s On – Nicki Minaj To Battle Tracy Chapman In Court In May 2020

(AllHipHop News) Tracy Chapman will finally have her day in court against Nicki Minaj next year.

A legal war between the two pop stars erupted after Nicki initially tried to get permission to sample Champman’s song called “Baby Can I Hold You.”

Nicki wanted to include the song on her album Queen but Chapman flatly denied the request, just weeks before the LP was released.

Nicki’s version, which was ironically titled “I’m Sorry” featuring Nas, ended up being leaked to popular New York DJ Funkmaster Flex, who premiered the unreleased record on his Twitter account.

The “Fast Car” singer filed a lawsuit against Nicki Minaj in October for copyright infringement, claiming she should be responsible for the leak. 

Nicki’s lawyers shot back and insisted the rapper, did nothing wrong, claiming the sample falls under the fair use category of copyright law.

The pair failed to settle, so last week, Tracy Chapman told the judge she needed more time to make her case because Nicki was stalling.

Tracy’s lawyers maintained Nicki Minaj was holding on to text messages allegedly sent to Funkmaster Flex, as well as other pertinent documents.

Nicki’s legal team cited a split with former manager Gee Roberson in April as one of the reasons for the delay.

Yesterday (October 18th) Judge Virginia Phillips shot down Tracy Chapman’s motion to delay the case until June of 2020 to gather more evidence.

A Pre-Trial Conference is set for May 18, 2020, at 2:30 p.m. and the trial will commence on May 26, 2020.

Joey Crack had made recent appearances in “Night School” starring Tiffany Haddish and the Netflix television show “She’s Gotta Have It.”
