(AllHipHop News) Rick Ross’ Maybach Music Group is apparently facing a lawsuit from a London promoter. TMZ is reporting that Ross, Meek Mill, Wale, Omarion, and Stalley were supposed to perform at a Wembley Arena concert on September 12, 2012, but the entertainers attempted to have the show postponed.

The promoter claims that the MMG members received over $285,000 in performance fees, flight costs, and other expenses before negotiations on a make-up date broke down. The promoter is now suing to reclaim all the money advanced to the five stars.

According to the plaintiff, $93,281.26 of that total was for the plane tickets and other costs. The rest was for the appearance fees for each MMG member which are now public. Ross was reportedly paid $100,000 while Meek Mill garnered $40,000, Wale $35,000, Omarion $12,000, and Stalley $5,500.

Maybach Music Group recently released their latest compilation album Self Made 3.

The reclusive Grammy winner previously dropped the track “Neurotic Society (Compulsory Mix)” in May after signing a reported $1 million record deal with Sony.

Hill also took the time to release a statement about her motivations for “Consumerism” and details on how the song was recorded.

Listen to “Consumerism” and read Ms. Hill’s statement below.


 

“Consumerism” is part of some material I was trying to finish before I had to come in. We did our best to eek out a mix via verbal and emailed direction, thanks to the crew of surrogate ears on the other side. Letters From Exile is material written from a certain space, in a certain place. I felt the need to discuss the underlying socio-political, cultural paradigm as I saw it. I haven’t been able to watch the news too much recently, so I’m not hip on everything going on. But inspiration of this sort is a kind of news in and of itself, and often times contains an urgency that precedes what happens. I couldn’t imagine it not being relevant. Messages like these I imagine find their audience, or their audience finds them, like water seeking it’s level.

A 40-year-old Nigerian woman is pregnant by and set to wed her 23-year-old son. The woman’s husband, and her son’s father, passed away and set the stage for the incestuous relationship.

Via Naijagists:

Betty Mbereko from Mwenezi in Maswingo who is now 6-month-pregnant for her son confirms that she has decided to marry him because she does not want to marry her late husband’s younger brothers, whom she says are coveting her.

Betty stunned a village court last week when she said the affair with her son had begun three years earlier.She said after spending a lot of money sending Farai to school following the death of her husband, she felt she had a right to his money and no other woman was entitled to it.

Um, ok so they don’t mention when the Mberekofrom’s husband actually passed. And then, what the hell kind of family is this? Did you peep that she mentioned that her other sons wanted her too? Ew.

Snoop Lion Says Tupac Was Crazy, Praises Drake + More W/ A$AP Rocky (VIDEO)

(AllHipHop News) Over twenty years in the Hip Hop game leads to one having a keen knowledge of lesser known stories. In the 2nd part of Snoop Lion and A$AP Rocky’s Back & Forth interview with Noisey, Snoop spoke on the infamous fight between Tupac and the Hughes brothers.

Back in 1993, Tupac assaulted the directors, Albert Hughes and Allen Hughes after the pair dropped the rapper from their seminal flick Menace II Society.

Tupac was crazy man. He didn’t even beat both of them up, he beat one of them up. [Laughs] Them n*ggas were my homeboys too. The Hughes Brothers were my friends. They lived right around the corner from me. They were my friends, man. They were squares like a motherfu*ker but they were my friends. I hate that Tupac beat him up. I don’t even know which one he beat up but it made me sick to the stomach.

In a 2009 interview with Vibe Magazine, Allen Hughes asserted that Tupac did not beat them up himself but had “12 Crips” beat up the director and even says “Tupac could not fight to save his motherf*cking life”:

The biggest misnomer is that me and Tupac got into any fight. It was me and 12 Crips that he got to jump me. He didn’t do s### Tupac didn’t lay a hand on me. I had my hands on him. But there was not a physical fight between me and Tupac. It was a physical fight between me and 12 gangbangers. I believe they are called the Rolling 40s and they rolled me up pretty good.

The gangsta rap pioneer who recently released a song with Drake called “No Guns Allowed” addressed the recent shootings and how those youth are brainwashed:

My whole background is guns. My first photoshoot I had real guns. Scared the photographer when I popped it on him like ‘wait a minute’. Yeah, n*gga this sh*t is loaded. It’s hot. You know what I’m saying? So I know what that is because I come from that, but it’s a brainwashing. I remember in the 70’s, all my homies used to fight and if you lost a fight you just went home and you lost. Then when the 80’s came, you lose a fight, you pick up a gun. Then the 90’s come, wasn’t no fighting, straight POP, POP, POP, POP!
