Naughty By Nature’s Vinnie Speaks; Treach To Speak Exclusively To AllHipHop

(AllHipHop News) Yesterday, Naughty By Nature frontman Treach dropped a bomb on the Hip-Hop World, stating that he and Vinnie were no longer friends.

But, the Brick City don used far more colorful terms on Twitter.

Treach said, “Vinnie from NAUGHTY BY NATURE is Officially FIRED!! Anything he does besides shows til Sept is Frugazy!! F**k him & the Ground he Walks!!”

He continued, “Anybody that f**ks with that B#### a$$ N#### Don’t F**k with Me!!”

Vinnie has now spoken out, albeit very sparsely, on Twitter.

He said, “I’m waking to drama. Spoke to my publicist. Silence is Golden. In the meantime Business 101: You can’t Fire the Owner ;-).” He did not elaborate.

AllHipHop will speak to Treach exclusively on this in a story that will run tomorrow. Look for it.

Both Vinnie and Treach have indicated that no Naughy By Nature shows will be cancelled that they have booked thus far.

Naughty is one of the most anticipated act for the upcoming Roots Picnic on June 1.

Chris Brown’s Private Jet Filled With Smoke, Makes Emergency Landing

(AllHipHop News) Chris Brown’s private jet went down in smoke, but in an emergency landing. According to TMZ, eight minutes into Brown’s flight from  Burbank, Calif. to Teterboro, NJ the plane began to be filled with smoke.

Brown was on his way to the MET Gala in New York City but the delay caused him to miss the event. Luckily, Brown was able to catch another flight to New York City in time to attend the “PUNK: Chaos To Couture” after-party.

Brown is not out of hot water just yet as his Hollywood Hills neighbors recently filed a complaint with Councilman Tom LaBonge regarding Brown’s graffiti in the area. After the councilman received the complaints he contacted the  Department of Building and Safety which ordered Brown to remove the graffiti or face a fine. Neighbors have also complained about Brown’s loud parties and speeding cars in the past.

Brown is slated to perform at Hot 97’s Summer Jam XX on June 2nd at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. Tickets for the event can be purchased at Ticketmaster.

Mac Miller Embarking on ‘The Space Migration’ North American Tour

(AllHipHop News) From his show on MTV, Mac Miller and the Most Dope Family, to recording his upcoming album dubbed, Watching Movies with the Sound Off, Mac Miller and his Rostrum Records team are always finding ways to keep the fans engaged.

Keeping the ball rolling, Mac Miller has announced a 38-City North American Tour supporting the release of his upcoming album set to be released June 18th on Rostrum Records.

The Space Migration Tour Kicks Off June 25th in Austin, TX and features Vince Staples, The Internet and Chance The Rapper as well as Meek Mill, EARL Sweatshirt and Action Bronson on select Dates

Mac Miller will also be bringing artists from his own, newly minted record label, REMember Music.  Joining Mac on the road will be Njomza, Dylan Reynolds, The Come-UP, Hardo, Choo Jackson and Primavera Vills.

“I’m excited that we figured out a safe way to bring a large group of people to a different planet. After hundreds of years of research, our team has developed a safe and reliable form of transportation that will bring tourists to a world of discovery and opportunity,” Mac Miller joked.

Mac’s upcoming album follows up the record-breaking debut album, Blue Slide Park, which bowed at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart in 2011, making it the first independently released debut to do so since 1995.

“’Watching Movies with the Sound Off’ is a very long title that everybody gets wrong, which is awesome. It was created inside of a sanctuary that exists in a different dimension. The only way you can get there is by running into a wall at full speed after eating an iced tea,” Mac Miller added.

Tickets go on sale beginning May 10th and are available at: http://macmillerofficial.com/tour.  For a full list of the tour dates, check below.

King Chip Shows Off Kanye’s Former Louis Vuitton Sneakers

King Chip displays his sample Louis Vuitton Jasper sneaker which once belonged to Kanye West and names the ugliest sneaker of all time. The sneakers were actually worn by Kanye in his photo shoot with Amber Rose (pictured below). Although Chip didn’t get the sneaks directly from Yeezy himself, he has a story behind them.

Signs The World IS Coming To An End: Cemeteries Won’t Bury Boston Bomber!

WTH TYPE BS IS THIS?

Apparently, reportedly and allegedly – THEY WILL NOT BURY THE BOSTON BOMBER!

Let me get the report right. Here is what they are saying:

On Sunday, Tamerlan’s body remained at a funeral home, where his uncle said he was trying to deal with the logistics of readying the body for burial.
“I’m here to prepare his body – to wash it, shroud it, to prepare his body,” Ruslan Tsarni was quoted as saying.

The funeral home owner, Peter Stefan, said he still has to find a cemetery willing to accept the body for burial. Three cemeteries that Stefan contacted said they feared reprisals, but the funeral home owner said you can’t pick and choose when it comes to a burial.

The city manager of Cambridge said he would not allow Tamerlan to be buried in the city if requested by the funeral director or the family.

“The difficult and stressful efforts of the citizens of the City of Cambridge to return to a peaceful life would be adversely impacted by the turmoil, protests, and widespread media presence at such an interment,” City Manager Robert W. Healy said in a statement.

Tamerlan died April 19 after he and his brother, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, shot dead a university police officer, carjacked an SUV and hurled bombs at officers pursuing them, according to authorities.

SOURCE

I don’t understand what the big deal is – dude is dead and they got revenge too. Nobody is going to exhume that man’s body and mutilate it more than those zillion bullets that they shot into him.

Bury him so closure can begin for everybody.

OK, Bury him in Texas near George W. Bush. Problem solved and closures begins.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Ja Rule Is Out Of Jail!!!!!??? Celebrate!

That’s the word on the streets! It looks like the good, downtrodden homey Ja Rule has touched down. No official word, but it seems like Nore knows a little something. Nore took to twitter to reveal that the Queens homey is back. Ja was supposed to be in the big house aka the bing aka jail until mid-summer. Looks like 50 is going to have to watch his back gain! Kidding. Seriously, Ja was in there on gun charges. I don’t think he’s going to be holding anytime soon.

Welcome home Ja!

Wyclef Explains Controversial Speedo Bike Photo

(AllHipHop News) They say a picture says a thousand words, and while that may be true, Hip-Hop fans and media needed some explaining when Wyclef posed on his Ducati motorcycle in his Speedo a few months back.

Recently on an episode of Sway in the Morning on Shade 45 Radio, Sway brought up the suspicious photo that set the internet on fire and left Wyclef with some explaining to do.

“It was Speedo’s, it wasn’t briefs.  That day I literally saw my Twitter split in half. I was like man, the sea has parted,” Wyclef explained to Sway.

While rappers and media alike were shocked by the photo, Wyclef says that it was all just a joke, and that people take things to seriously.

“Sway you know me, you know I’m the dude with the Fugees that will bring a goat on stage as a mascot.  I think what happens is the idea where you are human and I think people take us [artists] so serious, to the point that they forget we like to have fun. It’s ok to goof yourself,” Wyclef told Sway on Shade 45 radio.

Most recently Wyclef released his April Showers mixtape which features, T.I., Waka Flocka Flame, Mobb Deep, Trae Tha Truth, Kirko Bangz, King Los, Troy Ave, Maino, Haitian Fresh, Murda Mook and others.

On the project Wyclef introduces new talent signed to his Refugee La Republique Records label and features production from a host of upcoming talented producers including, Young Chop of Chief Keef’s camp.

Included on the project are the previously released tracks “Hip Hop” and “Mid Life Crisis” as well as other brand new music from Wyclef.
