(AllHipHop News) Taxstone’s legal woes just got worse.
The popular podcaster is now formally indicted on weapons charges stemming from the now-infamous Irving Plaza shooting during a T.I. concert. In the fracas, Troy Ave was hurt and his bodyguard was dead.
The breaking info was obtained by popular gossip blog Bossip.
Taxstone, real name Daryl Campbell, has been charged with being a felon in possession of a firearm, and receiving a gun through interstate commerce. Through evidence, a jury decided to charge him because Taxstone’s DNA was allegedly on key parts of the gun used in the killing.
Troy Ave has not been charged with the murder of Troy Ave’s bodyguard Ronald “Banga” McPhatter.
Taxstrone faces 20 years in prison.

(AllHipHop News) Rapper Future appears to be using a new song to taunt basketball icon Scottie Pippen over his rumoured fling with the sportsman’s wife Larsa.
The retired athlete filed for divorce to end their 19-year marriage in October of 2016 and Kim Kardashian’s best friend appeared to move on with Future, enjoying a number of outings together in California and Miami, Florida, where the hip-hop star filmed a music video in December.
However, Scottie and Larsa Pippen have since worked out their marital issues and the couple reunited earlier this month, with the sportsman even gushing about their “stronger than ever” family of six on social media on Valentine’s Day.
Now Future has seemingly fired shots at the former Chicago Bulls star over the short-lived romance with his then-estranged wife in the lyrics for his new track “Rent Money.”
“I make blogs with ya b##ch cause I’m ruthless,” Ciara’s ex-fiance boasts on the song, while in another line, he spits, “I just slam dunked ya b##ch, hall of fame.”
Pippen was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2010.
He has yet to comment on the apparent lyrical jab.

(AllHipHop News) Clyde Stubblefield, known as the Funky Drummer, died at the age of 73.
Stubblefield is the most sampled drummer in history for his role in James Brown band and a specific break that has been sampled innumerable times.
Stubblefield died in a Madison, Wisconsin, hospital of kidney failure on Saturday.
Stubblefield, most popular in the 1960’s and 70’s, was world renown for playing jams for James Brown like“Cold Sweat,” “Say It Loud—I’m Black and I’m Proud,” “I’ve Got the Feelin’,” and other songs. However, it was the song “Funky Drummer” that made Stubblefield a Hip-Hop icon.
Public Enemy, Dr. Dre, LL Cool J, Run-D.M.C., Rakim, Beastie Boys, N.W.A. and non-Hip-Hop acts like Ed Sheeran, Sinead O’Connor, Kenny G and George Michael all sampled “The Funky Drummer.” Unfortunately, Stubblefield did not profit greatly in royalties.
Prince personally paid for $80,000 in medical bills for Stubblefield when he was ailing from bladder cancer in 2000.
On Instagram, Questlove said, “Clyde Stubblefield thank you for everything you’ve taught me. The spirit of the greatest grace note left hand snare drummer will live on thru all of us.”

(AllHipHop Rumors) You have to appreciate the camaraderie in Hip-Hop. It has always been there but to certainly has evolved. Young Thug and Drake seem to be really chummy in a way I didn’t know they were cool. No shade. Just saying. I can imagine its lonely at the top and Only a few people can relate. I am not sure exactly what sparked this proclamation by Thugger, but he felt the need for some reason.
“Thanks for this journey my brada… u 1 of the realist rappers I know… very GgenuinNe man and brada, I love the way u treat me and respect me and my heart!!! YOU R NUN LIKE THESE OTHER RAPPERS. I mean ALL OF EM…. And for that I’m with u foreva! ?”

The “Hold You Down” hitmaker, real name Khaled Mohamed Khaled, took to Instagram on Friday to thank the 36-year-old singer, and her husband Swizz Beatz, for the personalised white piano they gave to his three-month-old son Asahd.

The piano was also adorned with Alicia’s signature, and the handwritten lyrics to her 2007 hit No One over the top.
Asahd is seen sitting at his new piano in the clip shared on Instagram, hitting the keys with the help of those around him.
Alicia, who shares sons Egypt, six, and two-year-old Genesis with Swizz, has yet to comment on the elaborate gift.
Khaled and his longtime partner and fiancee, Nicole Tuck, welcomed their son back in October of 2016, and he famously shared the labour on his favourite social media app, Snapchat.
He played tracks from his new album Major Key in the delivery room as Nicole gave birth – and he posted clips online.
After his little boy made his grand entrance, DJ Khaled was clearly overcome with emotion, holding back tears and smiling in video footage featuring the caption: “I love you son!!!”
Asahd made his red carpet debut at the Grammy Awards earlier this month, wearing a little tuxedo, a bow tie and sneakers, alongside his mother and father.

(AllHipHop News) Big Sean has shot down reports that a fan allegedly slapped him after an incident during an album signing event.
Big Sean tried to quell the chatter over the incident, which happened at the FYE record store in Queens, New York as he signed copies of his hit album I Decided.
A video shows an unknown man on the floor of FYE on Friday after being taken down by security guards.
The cops immediately shut down the signing and cleared out the entire FYE after the incident.
Big Sean hit up Twitter and claimed the man was patient from a mental hospital who had just been released.
“Look I never comment on this type of s##t, but they can’t do me dirty and say a fan smacked me or no s##tblike that,” he wrote. “Some guy waited in line in the cold since 10am, bought my CD, when I signed his CD n (sic) shook his hand he TRIED to hit me off guard.”
the dude was released from a mental hospital last week, has a long record of mental illness n was off his meds. Very serious issues

(AllHipHop News) Even in the rain, crowds of excited fans packed into the Sneaker Politics store to see an exclusive performance by NOLA’s own Juvenile and Mannie Fresh.
Taking the stage in the new Sneaker Politics store among a sea of cameras, Juvenile and Mannie Fresh performed some of their biggest hits like “Back That Azz Up” to a crowd of fans who rapped along.
Juvenile and Mannie Fresh helped launch the new Reebok Classic x Sneaker Politics x Humidity Workout Lo Clean, a collaboration between Reebok Classic, Sneaker Politics and local skate purveyor Humidity Skate Shop.
The Workout sneaker has a special history in New Orleans.
Mannie Fresh and Juvenile were big fans of the style coming up, nicknaming it the “solja,” which inspired Reebok to bring down custom Workouts in 1999 for Juvenile’s music video for “I Got That Fire.”
The new Reebok Classic x Sneaker Politics x Humidity Workout Lo Clean pays homage to this history with its unique design.
The white upper is made of crackled white leather to show the “age” of a Classic, with camo stripe piping, a camo liner and gold logos.
The flame printed insoles also refer to this golden era of late 90s rap, inspired by fire imagery on album covers at that time.
The Reebok Classic x Sneaker Politics x Humidity Workout Lo Clean retails for $110 and is now available for sale in Kids and Men’s sizes at the Sneaker Politics store (216 Chartres Street, New Orleans) and online.

(AllHipHop News) Brooklyn rapper Troy Ave recently showed off footage of his damage Maserati after it was shot up with him inside of it, on Christmas Day.
Troy Ave was sitting in the car with his girlfriend, when an unknown gunman snuck up to his parked car on a Brooklyn street on December 25, 2016.
The assailant opened fire on the bright red luxury vehicle, shattering its windows and causing major damage to the vehicle.
Troy Ave was shot twice in the incident, while his girlfriend escaped with no injuries.
So far, investigators have yet to charge anyone in that incident on Troy’s life.
“Blood in tha Foreign! some is mine, most is Jesus,'” Troy Ave said. “I’m blessed.”
The rapper was also involved in a deadly altercation with podcaster Taxstone, during a deadly altercation at Irving Plaza last May.
Troy Ave’s bodyguard Ronald “Banga” McPhatter was shot and killed in a green room and four other people were struck, including Troy Ave.
Troy Ave, born Roland Collins, is currently free on $500,000 bail.
He has pleaded not guilty for his role in the shootout, while Taxstone is being held without bail on weapons charges.
However, Taxstone could be charged with first-degree murder, since his DNA was found on the Kel-Tec 9mm used in the shooting, which was also connected to the radio host through an investigation conducted by authorities.
Troy Ave is also preparing to drop a new mixtape series called “DopeBoyTroy” Volume1.
Check out the footage of Troy’s damage Maserati below:

(AllHipHop News) Willow and Jaden Smith have a first, with their appearance together on the cover of Interview Magazine.
The two siblings sat down for an in-depth Q&A session with none other than Pharrell Williams.
In the interview, the pair discussed a number of issues, from growing up famous, to their parents being their role models, to their ten-year predictions for the future.
According to the pair, growing up growing up as the famous son and daughter of actors Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, was not easy.
However, the two siblings, who have been famous since they were born, manage to deal with the pressures of fame and normalizing their lives, since they are “aware.”
“Like, okay, I’m in New York right now. I’m not posting an emoji of a plane on Instagram, like, ‘New York,’” explained Jaden. “I don’t want anyone to know that I’m here in New York. And by the time this comes out, I won’t be. We don’t like people to really know what’s happening with us or what we’re into. The only thing that we want to keep people updated with is that we want to keep the kids that are following us, the kids that are looking up to us updated on what we’re learning and what we’re thinking about life
Check out the full feature with Interview Magazine here and take a look at some highlights below:
On Where they see themselves in 10 years:
JADEN: Gone.
WILLOW: I feel that. I see myself in the mountains somewhere in a tent cooking a squirrel.
Pharrell: Who are your biggest inspirations?
WILLOW: My parents. Growing up, all I saw was my parents trying to be the best people they could be, and people coming to them for wisdom, coming to them for guidance, and them not putting themselves on a pedestal, but literally being face-to-face with these people and saying, “I’m no better than you, but the fact that you’re coming to me to reach some sort of enlightenment or to shine a light on some- thing, that makes me feel love and gratitude for you.”
JADEN: I 100 percent agree with Willow on that one. My parents are definitely my biggest role models. And that’s where me and Willow both pull all of our inspiration from to change the world. It all comes from a concept of affecting the world in a positive way and leaving it better than it was than when we came. I feel like that enters into all types of different areas because there are so many different outlets that life has to offer for us. That goes into technology, into music. That goes into science, into spirituality, into education. Where me and Willow come from, a lot of it is trying to make society more efficient, so that kids don’t cry, like, “Why do I have to go to school?” Instead, kids are like, “Yeah! I’m so glad to go to school! I’m a better person than I was yesterday, and I can help people.”
(AllHipHop Rumors) This whole thing played out on Instasnap, it seems. Big Sean was out promoting his new album and somebody slapped fire out of the dude. Apparently, the dude pretended to be a fan at the signing rolled up and hit the Detroit homie. The cops rolled him up soon after.
