Snoop Dogg Responds To Backlash Over Pointing Gun At A Trump Clown In Music Video

(AllHipHop News) Snoop Dogg does not seem to be too concerned about the critics of his new “Lavender” video.

The Hip Hop legend posted a short vid on Instagram letting the world know he is not going to speak directly about the backlash over the image of a Donald Trump clown being shot at with a prop gun.

“Y’all want to ask questions and interview me. But guess what? I got nothing to say, mate,” said Snoop in the IG clip.

He went on to post footage and photos with Brooklyn rapper Desiigner.

Yesterday, Donald Trump responded to the imagery in the BADBADNOTGOOD “Lavender” music video.

“Can you imagine what the outcry would be if [Snoop Dogg], failing career and all, had aimed and fired the gun at President Obama? Jail time!” Trump tweeted.

That led to both Bow Wow and T.I. responding to the president on social media.

“Ayo [Donald Trump] shut your punk ass up talking sh-t about my uncle [Snoop Dogg] before we pimp your wife and make her work for us,” wrote Bow Wow on Twitter before deleting the tweet.

In an Instagram post that is still on his page at the moment, Tip declared, “[Snoop Dogg] is a F-ckin Legend u F-cking Tangerine Tanned Muskrat s###### skin, Lacefront Possum fur Wig wearing, Alternative fact, Atomic Dog diarrhea face ass man!!!! Leave our legends names out ya f-ckin old ass puppy p### smelling ass mouth & continue to focus on dividing minorities, building barriers, alienating immigrants, & f-ckin this country up like u been doin…. #UWannaBeDictator #PresidentialLevelF-ckBoy.”

Meek Mill Posts “Just Stop It” After Reports Of Arrest At St. Louis Airport

(AllHipHop News) Meek Mill was reportedly charged with misdemeanor assault after an altercation at St. Louis International Airport.

According to TMZ, the Dreamchasers leader got into a fight with an airport employee that wanted to take a picture with Meek.

Two individuals that worked at the airport were also charged, the website reports.

Since the news story broke, Meek has continued to post on Instagram.

In one post, he wrote, “Just stop it…… cut that internet off for a few hrs and go achieve something ?.”

He added in a second IG post, “Locked in the slammer nope popped up in Miami ?.”

The supposed airport employees, Justin Card and De’Angelo Webb, spoke with TMZ.

Card accused Meek and his entourage of approaching him after the rapper refused to take a picture with him the previous time he was in the airport.

“Two dudes walked up on me and was like, ‘You still trying to fight me?'” said Card. “I was scared. I’m at work so I’m defending myself cause I know he finna punch me. So I swung first.”

However, Card later stated, “They threw the first punch.”

Just stop it…… cut that internet off for a few hrs and go achieve something ?

Kim Kardashian Breaks Down Recounting Paris Robbery Ordeal

(AllHipHop News) Kim Kardashian is convinced the men responsible for her horrifying robbery ordeal had been following her throughout her trip to Paris.

The reality TV star was bound, gagged, and held at gunpoint in October as armed men stormed her private hotel suite in the French capital and made off with millions of dollars’ worth of jewellery and electronics.

In January, French authorities conducted a series of raids and arrested 17 people in connection to the crime.

They subsequently filed charges, including armed robbery, kidnapping, and weapon possession, against 10 suspects.

Kim gave her testimony to a French judge during a meeting in New York in February, and now fans will get to hear her side of the story in this weekend’s (March 19) episode of her family show “Keeping Up With the Kardashians.”

In an extended preview, which aired on U.S. breakfast show “Today” on Wednesday (March 15), Kim insists it wasn’t a coincidence the thugs picked an evening she was home alone, without security, admitting her social media posts may have helped them determine the best time to strike, as her sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Kendall Jenner were enjoying a night out.

“What I think happened now, after thinking about it so much, is that there was probably a group of guys that was following us the entire trip,” she shared. “I was Snapchatting that I was home, and that everyone was going out. So, I think they knew (bodyguard) Pascal (Duvier) was out with Kourtney, and that I was there by myself.”

“They had to have known we were leaving that day,” Kim continued. “They had this window of opportunity and just went for it.”

An earlier teaser for the new series featured Kanye West’s wife breaking down as she recounted the terrifying incident to her sisters Kourtney and Khloe.

“‘They’re going to shoot me in the back. There’s no way out’,” the mother-of-two recalled of her frantic thoughts at the time. “It makes me so upset to think about it.”

Kim’s scary experience prompted her to take a break from the spotlight for the remainder of 2016, but she resumed her promotional duties with a trip to Dubai, United Arab Emirates in January.

She was noticeably absent from Paris Fashion Week last month after deciding she was not yet ready to return to the city.

Azealia Banks Admits To Biting Bouncer’s Nipple and Gets Probation

(AllHipHop News) Rapper Azealia Banks has avoided jail time by striking a plea deal in her assault case.

The “212” hitmaker was accused of spitting at and biting a female bouncer outside a nightclub in 2015.

A bench warrant was issued for her arrest earlier this month after she failed to show up for court.

However, the warrant was rescinded when the 25-year-old appeared the following day.

She was subsequently released without bail and on Wednesday (March 15) she agreed to a plea deal on a third-degree assault charge.

“Did you intentionally cause physical injury to Christine Soares by biting down on her breast?” Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Ann Scherzer asked Banks.

“Yes,” she responded.

According to reports, she was given a deferred no-jail sentence and was ordered to complete an anger management program, mental health treatment, and abide by a full order of protection.

If she does not violate any conditions of the plea agreement the assault charge against her will be reduced to disorderly conduct.

She faces up to a year behind bars if she does not adhere to the plea terms.

She is due back in court in June for a hearing on her progress.

Banks’ erratic behavior has been making headlines for all the wrong reasons for months – she engaged in a social media feud with Bajan singer Rihanna over controversial U.S. President Donald Trump’s so-called Muslim ban at the end of January, and her lawsuit against Russell Crowe, in which she accused the Australian actor of spitting at her and calling her derogatory names at a Beverly Hills party in October, was thrown out by Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office just before Christmas.

Rihanna Passes Elvis Presley On The List Of Most Top 5 Hits

(AllHipHop News) Rihanna takes over the fifth position on the list of all-time Top 5 hits on the Billboard Hot 100.

The Bajan singer now has 22 career singles to make it into the Top 5 on the chart which passes Elvis Presley’s 21.

“Love on the Brain” rose from #6 to #5 on the most recent Hot 100 tally.

At the moment, Rihanna only trails The Beatles (29), Madonna (28), Mariah Carey (26) and Janet Jackson (24).

The Anti album creator is also in third place (30) on the list of acts with the most Top 10 hits, behind only Madonna (38) and The Beatles (34).

In addition, Rihanna is in the Top 10 of the Hot 100 records for most cumulative weeks at number one, most Top 40 singles, and most consecutive weeks in the Top 10.

She stands alone as the only artist to have a #1 Hot 100 single on seven consecutive studio albums.

Wale Has A Message For The Up-And-Coming Rappers & Insta-Thots

(AllHipHop Rumors) Listen up kids! Wale has a message for all of you continuously jumping in his social media DMS…. DON’T!

“Public service announcement: if you a rapper or entertainer or anything jumping in my DMS and asking to get on is not the best way because it’s so many people in them dms asking about music and all of that. That doesn’t really display your hunger jumping in the DMS and be like can I open for tour or can you sign me. If you know of anything you know that I’m working with Phil Ade right now and I’m working on my album. That’s really all I have time for. So basically find other means man. Like I’m not trying to be rude or nothing like that, and I’m not trying to be stuck up…but just asking that’s not how that works, and one more please stop getting mad when n-ggas read your messages and don’t reply because half of y’all girls that DM me do the same thing to n-ggas. So when a n-gga do it to you, you don’t like it, and you are only doing it because I got a lil name and sh-t,” said Wale

Well it’s clear that Wale definitely wanted to get some things off of his chest. Do you agree with Wale? Should aspiring rappers take another route other than trying to hit celebrities up on social media? What do you think is the best way for a rapper to get on these days?

Common Drops A New Spoken Word Piece In Hopes Of Preventing Blindness

(AllHipHop News) Chicago rapper Common continues to use the platform he’s built as an award-winning rapper and actor, to do good for the community.

Common has endorsed a new initiative called “See America,” which is aimed at raising awareness about blindness in America.

“With many Americans not viewing eye health as a priority and believing that they look after their health by eating well and exercising regularly, they are failing to consider their eyes as part of their every day, or even annual regimes, Common said.

The campaign, which is underwritten by Allergan, intends to teach Americans about the value of eye health.

Comment linked up with “See America” to create a new spoken word video, exclusively for the campaign.

“The hope is that this video will raise awareness and inspire Americans to change their routine,” Common added.

Meek Mill Gets Into Airport Brawl With Employees Over A Photo

(AllHipHop News) Rapper Meek Mill could be heading back to prison for a long time.

The Philly native was just arrested in St. Louis (March 15) after becoming involved in a dispute in the airport.

According to TMZ.com, Meek Mill got into a scrap with an airport employee, who was trying to take a picture with the rapper.

For some reason, the situation escalated into a fist fight.

Cops were called and Meek and two airport employees were hit with misdemeanor assault charges and ordered to appear in court at a later date.

The arrest could complicate things for Meek Mill, who is on probation for weapons and a drug conviction.

The rapper has also had long-standing issues with his probation officers stemming from a case he caught in 2008.

In July 2014, Meek was sentenced to six months in prison for a number of infractions.

Those included booking concerts out-of-town, not providing his probation officer with a working phone number, posting a photo holding a gun on Instagram and publishing derogatory posts about his probation officer and prosecutor on Twitter.

Akon’s Luxury Tesla’s Security System Foils Car Thief

(AllHipHop News) R&B star Akon recovered his luxury Tesla car hours after it was stolen from his home.

According to editors at TMZ.com, a burglar stole the “Locked Up” singer’s Tesla Model S electric vehicle, but was forced to abandon the car when its security system shut it down.

Sources close to the musician tell the gossip website the car thief took the car from Akon’s Los Angeles home on Saturday after his garage door was accidentally left open.

However the criminal was reportedly foiled when he parked the car and was unable to restart it due to its security features.

The vehicle was swiftly located using its inbuilt tracking device.

TMZ reports that as the singer is currently in Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, family members filed a police report and the matter is now under investigation.

The 43-year-old singer is just the latest high profile victim of crime in the Los Angeles area, with Canadian singer Alanis Morissette, basketball star Nick Young and TV dog trainer Cesar Millan all having their properties burgled.

Papoose Got Caught Showing Nicki Minaj Some Attention On Instagram!

(AllHipHop Rumors) Either Papoose got caught slipping, or he’s just petty as hell. I’m going to go with the latter.

Unless you’ve been under a rock, you know all about the ongoing beef between female rappers Nicki Minaj and Remy Ma.

Remy Ma’s husband, rapper Papoose raised some eyebrows when he was cuaght liking a few comments under a recent photo of Nicki and Drake. Just when you think the drama and feud will completely die down, something else happens.

The comment was a fan tagging someone else in the post, so this looked like a clear slip up since the “like” hearts are all to the side when you are scrolling through comments.

Apparently Papoose liked something else with the same post also, and screenshots have been floating around of the likes.

Most people, including myself, like stuff sometimes to be petty and let the person know that you saw them trying to be slick, so maybe this is why Papoose was over on Nicki’s page lurking.

In your opinion do you think it’s even anything to cause a fuss about? Was Papoose under the pic/ on the associated page trying to get some views of that azz? Pap and Remy are very calculated individuals, so we don’t even know if this was planned, or was this simply an accident. Carry on.

Legal Battle With Top Dawg Prompts Indie Artist To Write An Open Letter To Kendrick Lamar

(AllHipHop News) A buzzing independent rapper who recorded a track with Kendrick Lamar has penned an open letter to the artist, in an attempt to sort out an ongoing legal dispute.

Jonathan Emile is locked in battle with Top Dawg Entertainment, over a song he recorded with Kendrick Lamar, back in 2011.

Jonathan claims his representatives contacted TDE, and managed to land a coveted feature from Kendrick Lamar, and Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith approved the verse himself.

“After the verse was delivered and the payment was made, all communication ceased. I had my lawyers reach out to your lawyer at the time Josh Binder, Interscope and Top Dawg Entertainment,” Jonathan Emile writes in his open letter to K-Dot.

“No one would get back to us. Your team, and Top Dawg, in particular, was always difficult to deal with especially after the song was recorded.

“TDE took a long time to respond to emails, they didn’t answer many of our questions, and they ignored our continued requests to sign the paperwork,” Jonathan Emile continued. “Your career trajectory since then has been astronomical, so we assumed you were just busy and I continued to work on my album.”

Jonathan Emile claims he scrounged together the money to pay for a lawyer to get the proper paperwork drawn up and signed, but he claims that after TDE received the payments, communication began to grind to halt.

According to Jonathan Emile, he finally decided to put his album The Lover/Fighter Document out anyway, since he went through the proper legal channels.

But, after the release and the single begin to gain some buzz, Universal Music Group and Top Dawg himself, ordered Jonathan Emile to take the single down, which was eventually yanked from all of the major streaming platforms.

“I informed him that I had every right to have the song released and that there was nothing I could do because it was live on the internet and scheduled for iTunes release. I proposed to remove the song if I was refunded, but Top Dawg refused,” Jonathan Emile wrote.

 

Jonathan Emile said ultimately, his lawyer helped him win the case, and Top Dawg allegedly admitted that he ordered the song be taken down because he felt “disrespected.”

The case wound through the court system in Canada, and Jonathan Emile eventually won a verdict against TDE, according to his letter.

However, Jonathan Emile claims the label has failed to honor the verdict, prompting his open letter and his pleas to Kendrick Lamar.

Take a look at the full open letter over at DJBooth.net.

Faith Evans Is Hands On With Biopic About Her Own Life

(AllHipHop News) Singer Faith Evans is developing a biopic about herself.

The “Love Like This” star’s film will reportedly be based on her 2009 memoir, “Keep the Faith,” and will center on her career and personal life, including her marriage to late rapper The Notorious B.I.G.

But one subject that won’t make it into the film is her physical fights with rapper Lil’ Kim and other women over her husband’s affairs.

“I’m the executive producer on it, and I’m working closely with the screenwriters,” she told The Breakfast Club. “It’s definitely not going to be something other than what I would want to see. I like to be very tactful – but honest.”

Evans has since reconciled with Lil’ Kim, but the film will touch on what the singer was going through at the time of the affair.

“If I do decide to show something that was in my book – for example, the situation with me and Kim – I was very clear this is what I felt then because of obvious reasons, but I don’t feel that way anymore,” she continued.

The biopic will reportedly premiere later this year.

Woman Claims Miguel Sexually Assaulted Her

(AllHipHop Rumors) Now I’m never one to victim blame, or discredit folks off the rip, but I can’t help but think that this one doesn’t sound right.

So a woman is claiming that singer Miguel sexually assaulted her as he allegedly pulled one of her breasts out at a show.

Now listen, I’ve seen and heard all kinds of things first hand in this industry, hell in the world, and I don’t put anything past anyone, but here’s why social media isn’t believing this woman’s story.

The woman makes a video fondling herself and rubbing on herself trying to be sexy while telling us the story of what allegedly happened between her and Miguel. I don’t care if a woman was butt naked, that doesn’t give the man the right to touch them, but many wondered that if this really happened to the woman, why would she try to post a seductive video on the ‘gram instead of notifying the police. The woman recorded a video saying,

“Went out to this one club ran into the singer Miguel and I went up to him and I introduced myself and asked him if we can take a picture. He was like yeah sure he was super cool at first. And I was like you know I just want to introduce myself to you. My name is Xian Bass. I’m a student at the University of New Mexico. I’m majoring in health and human services. I’m really passionate about sexual health and sexual education.. getting folks tested. I love your song “Adorn”. I’ve made myself orgasm to it many of times, and I love the song. Thank you. So cool we take a selfie; cute little photo. But right after we take the photo he reaches his hand down my shirt, and takes my breast out of my top….I froze because it was so sudden.”

We weren’t there, so it’s not completely fair to weigh in on the incident. Surely there may be camera footage or witnesses who were nearby right?! Miguel seems to be happily in a long-term relationship, the woman doesn’t seem like his type, and he doesn’t seem like the type to do anything like this, but you never know! Hmmmmm what are your thoughts? Do you believe her?
