Torae Drops Dope New Video With 3D Na’Tee, Respect To Terence Crutcher

As we have pushed forward this year, Torae’s second album has slipped from the consciousness a bit. However, the newest visuals for “Crown” will remind everybody how dope Entitled truly was. This album cut opposes police brutality and pushes the positive agenda of royal blood in African DNA. Furthermore, the video features lady lyricist 3D Na’Tee

In a statement, Torae explained the meaning behind the video.

“I was really on the fence about dropping this video today. We shot ‘Crown’ last month with plans to release it this week, then #TerenceCrutcher happened. Immediately I thought we can’t drop the video now, it’s in poor taste. However the more I mulled it over, the more I felt it was the perfect time to release this visual. These are the harsh realities we are facing as black men & women in this country every single day. The fact of the matter is today “Crown” is a music video I willingly filmed, tomorrow I could end up the same way in a video shot by a bystander.”

The Game Says He’s “Torn” Over Meek Mill Beef Following Murder Of Terrence Crutcher (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) Compton rapper The Game says he’s “torn” after dropping his second diss track against Meek Mill “Pest Control,” following the controversial murder by Tulsa police of unarmed black man Terrence Crutcher.

“I find it a little difficult to be actually beefing with another African-American artist, because on one accord I should be on this Black Lives Matter push and this cops killing African-Americans thing and then on the other side I got this beef with Meek going.  So it’s kinda like I’m torn, it makes me look bipolar man,” The Game told TMZ when asked about the recent tragedy.

Earlier today Game dropped another track taking aim at Meek’s head  “Pest Control,” which features more hardcore rhymes aimed at the Philly rapper over the smooth and melodic instrumentation of Young M.A’s “OOOUUU.”

The heated beef revolves around The Game’s belief that Meek Mill told Sean Kingston that his crew was involved in the robbery of Kingston at a club in June.

Check out The Game’s response to the recent killing of Terrence Crutcher and the new diss track below.

Michel’le’s Biopic ‘Surviving Compton’ Trailer Shows Dr. Dre Choking Her Out!

Michel’le’s biopic will finally hit TV next month. The singer who rose to fame in the late 1980s Hip Hop world alongside N.W.A., is ready to tell her story in ‘Surviving Compton’: Dre, Suge & Michel’le’, a Lifetime original movie.

The movie will show the singer’s tumultuous life in and out of the limelight, and it will also show her success with N.W.A, as well as her relationships with Dr. Dre and Suge Knight. The movie will also chronicle her life of alcohol and drug use as well.

Although ‘Straight Outta Compton’ failed to show Michel’le’s violent relationship with Dr. Dre, her Lifetime biopic will.

Dr. Dre did eventually apologize for his past violent behavior involving Michel’le, Dee Barnes, and any other women that he hurt.

The trailer for the movie shows Dr. Dre choking Michel’le in the studio and even threatening to kick her a** in front of others.

We aren’t sure how good the film will be given Lifetime’s biopic history, but we do know it’s going to bring back attention to a lot of crazy occurrences during the era.

Surviving Compton premieres Saturday, Oct. 15 at 8 p.m. ET on Lifetime.

Rapper Ice-T Explains Why He Never Eats Before A Show and Reveals Plans For New Body Count Album

(AllHipHop News) Ice-T was put off eating before performing after a particularly horrific incident involving gumbo.

The 58-year-old musician and actor will be hitting the road later this year with his band Body Count.

While he makes sure he is prepared before taking to the stage, he always performs with an empty stomach, recalling one nasty situation during an interview on "Late Night With Seth Meyers" last night (September 19).

"I don’t eat before shows. I had a bad incident one time, I was at Lollapalooza back in the day and this lady served us gumbo (a fish stew popular in Louisiana) during lunch and I went on stage, in front of like 20,000 people, with full blown diarrhea," he laughed.

"So imagine standing on stage, holding your butt cheeks, and you’re trying to tell people to go crazy like, ‘(strained voice) Oh yeah, alright!’ And when the show was over, one fart would have been disaster. Never again, so I don’t eat right before a show ever!"

Ice-T has become more famous for his recurring role in “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” than his music over the past few years.

But he is looking forward to getting back to his roots when Body Count's tour kicks off, and has upped his exercise regime in preparation.

"I mean, you’ve just got to have your cardio up and it’s just like Broadway – once you get past that first night on tour it just falls in place, you know," he smiled. "But the crowd, you get the energy, you just go out there and do what you do." Body Count are also currently working on their upcoming album Bloodlust, for which they have once again joined forces with producer Will Putney.

The chance to team up with Putney again was too good an opportunity to pass up, with Ice-T admitting in a recent interview:

"Will Putney is like a member of the band and has an excellent ear. He’s a great producer because he captures the true essence of our band’s sound. Once we are done writing the song it’s his job to step in and make it sound better. He helps move the record in the right direction."

Chris Brown’s Baby Mama Blasts Him For Taking Care Of Grown Men

As you know Chris Brown isn’t letting random people in his Calabasas mansion anymore.

Breezy’s new guest policy is so strict that even his roommates have to submit written requests that have to be approved before their guests can come by.

CB’s baby mama, Nia Guzman, isn’t too happy with the way Chris Brown conducts himself or how he spends his money. Guzman decided to subliminally blast him for taking care of grown men but not his family!

Nia claims Brown has an entire entourage of bottom-feeding wannabe somebody men in his circle.

Chris Brown has had a very troubled career, so he may want to consider cutting people out of his life and reevaluating his circle.

Kevin Gates recently said that he doesn’t believe in taking care of other grown men, and he doesn’t care how you feel about it. Nia wasn’t shy about letting it be known that she certainly agrees.

Young M.A. Weighs In On Game and Meek Beef; LGBT Website Slams Both Rappers

(AllHipHop News) Young M.A. may have the hottest record of the year with her hit single “OOOUUU,” but at the moment, it’s how rappers Game and Meek Mill are using the instrumental that is turning heads.

The Brooklyn bred emcee offered up her opinion on the escalating beef between Game and Meek Mill, over allegations that Game’s crew robbed R&B singer Sean Kingston for $300,000 worth of jewels in June.

Game claims that Meek and his people snitched to police, something Sean Kingston, his lawyer, Meek and even the LAPD have denied.

Still, Meek dropped a scathing diss towards Game over Young M.A.’s#### “”OOOUUU,” while Game just replied in kind with a nasty record for Meek, Sean Kingston and Beanie Sigel too on a remix called “Pest Control.”

“Y’all worried about some petty ass rap beef meanwhile we out here droppin like flies,” Young M.A. posted on her Instagram page today (September 20). “It’s f##ked up how the media and blogs puts so much effort and energy into ‘Rap beef’ and ‘drama’ but not focus on what’s really going on! You could hear about 2 rappers going at it for days.. Weeks.. Months… But you’ll stop hearing about an unarmed black man that just got killed by police in 3 days smh.. This world is f##k up!!”

While the openly gay rapper criticized the media and Hip-Hop fans for hyping up the beef, LGBT website The Advocate took up for the community and slammed Game and Meek for their gay bashing during the feud.

Meek’s diss is laced with gay slurs, while Game has been making fun of Meek on social media, with insults that are offensive to the LGBT community.

“Whether this beef between the two is being led by toxic masculinity, homophobia, a need for attention, or a combination of them all, the disses between the two rappers are laden with overt and covert antigay sentiments and slurs, instead of actually focusing on, you know, music.” wrote The Advocate’s Orie Givens.

Givens’ take is that the back-and-forth between the rappers is bad for the LGBT community.

“As the mess between these two rappers plays out on Instagram, the ones who are most negatively affected by it are LGBT hip-hop fans,” Orie Givens said.

Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine Heading To Court In Royalty Dispute Over Beats Electronics

(AllHipHop News) Rap icon Dr. Dre and his Beats Electronics co-founder Jimmy Iovine are heading back to court over a royalties dispute.

Former hedge fund manager Steven Lamar claims he played a key role early on in the firm’s existence by introducing Dre and Iovine to celebrated industrial designer Robert Brunner, who was brought on board to help develop the popular design of their early headphone line, and securing funding from investors.

However, the stars sued Lamar in 2006 amid a contract issue, and accused him and his associates of planning to launch their own Beats audio products without Dre’s involvement.

The two parties subsequently reached a settlement, which granted Lamar a four per cent royalty on the original headphones, but when he tried to claim additional compensation for alternate designs last year, his claim was shut down by a Los Angeles Superior Court judge.

Lamar challenged the decision and took his case to a California appeals court, where an official overturned the ruling, stating the royalty agreement was “ambiguous” enough to revive the dispute with a jury trial.

Dre and music label executive Iovine sold the Beats brand to Apple bosses in 2014, securing a whopping $3 billion for the company.

The Game Admits To Having Sex With Khloe Kardashian, Kim Kardashian & Blac Chyna

(AllHipHop News) While still in the middle of his public drama with Meek Mill, The Game may have just ignited more controversy. 

Game’s song “Sauce” included him rapping that he “f-cked three Kardashians.”

The Compton native appeared on The Wendy Williams Show today, and Wendy asked him about his lyrics claiming he slept with members of the Kardashian clan.

At first, Game refused to acknowledge which of the sisters he had sex with. But the 1992 album creator eventually acknowledged who he has been in bed with.

“Sometimes it gets late at night, and you know… and it just, people… I don’t know,” responded Game when asked if he had sex with Khloé Kardashian.

When the conversation turned to Kim Kardashian, Game said, “Kanye is a really good friend of mine and they got really beautiful kids. I don’t want to disrespect their family.”

Game was quick to answer “no” when questioned about Kourtney Kardashian and Kris Jenner.

He also replied that Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner were “not Kardashians.” So who was the third Kardashian that Game was referring to on “Sauce”?

“It was three. It gets a little tricky. [Blac] Chyna ain’t married yet,” said Game about Rob Kardashian’s fiancee. “It’s all good if it’s facts.”

Cops Dispute The Game’s Claim Meek Mill “Snitched” About Sean Kingston Robbery

(AllHipHop News) Maybe it is the definition of the word “snitching” that is causing confusion in The Game versus Meek Mill situation.

Game has insisted Meek spoke to police about associates of the 1992 LP creator allegedly robbing singer Sean Kingston.

However, TMZ reports law enforcement sources are saying neither Game nor Meek’s names were included any reports about the crime.

In a video, Game also stated that police arrived at his door to discuss the case. Again, police have stated that is not true.

Apparently, Game got connected to the June $300,000 jewelry robbery through Kingston’s mother.

She reportedly wrote on social media that the “92 Bars” rapper was possibly part of the suspected plot because he was at the Penthouse club the night of the incident.

In addition, Game alleged Kingston told him directly that Meek blamed Game for the theft. Both Kingston and Meek have denied that accusation as well.

Kingston and Meek also suggested Game started – what they see as fraudulent assertions – just to promote his upcoming album release.

The Game & Meek Mill’s Dreamchasers Artist Omelly Clash On Social Media

(AllHipHop News) At one time, rappers would battle on wax. Now they are more likely to battle on social media.

The Game’s ongoing feud with Meek Mill did include respective records from the two spitters, but Game is also continuing his takedown of the Dreamchasers crew using Instagram.

The California native turned his targets to Omelly. Game called out Meek’s right-hand man for jumping on the “OOOUUU Remix” diss track.

In a video of Omelly’s highly criticized freestyle on Sway In The Morning, Game wrote in the caption:

Omelly also took shots at Game on the social network. He posted videos making fun of his rival, but later added a tweet that read:
