Cardi B Confirms She’s Single Amid Rumors Offset Cheated With Chrisean Rock

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

The internet was in a frenzy over the weekend after Blueface accused his on-again, off-again girlfriend Chrisean Rock of having sex with Cardi B’s husband, Offset. Cardi has now addressed the speculation.

“Being tatted on a hoe is not a flex. You literally f##### Cardi B’s husband [a] couple [of] weeks ago. I’m tired of n##### looking at me while they f###### you, get the rest of em gone ASAP please,” Blueface tweeted about Chrisean on Sunday (December 10).

He also added, “‘Tried to keep [your] secret but you keep popping it on these apps, ima only state facts every time… So you ain’t f##### Cardi’s husband [on] November 10th at 4 am at their house in LA… I’m making this up?”

Offset responded to the “Thotiana” rapper by tweeting, “I ain’t never talk or touch that lady. Real talk man, you need some help!” Blueface has since deleted those specific X posts about the Migos member and Chrisean Rock.

Cardi B Says She Didn’t Know How To Tell The World About Her Breakup With Offset

Cardi B went on social media to discuss the ongoing drama involving her family. The Invasion of Privacy album creator confirmed she separated from Offset before Blueface’s allegations came to light.

“I don’t know if you guys been getting clues for me from my Lives or from my Stories when I put some certain music or find my own followings,” Cardi B told her fans. “When it comes to today’s events, I don’t know if it’s true. I don’t think it’s true. I don’t care to find out because I’ve been single for a minute now.”

She then stated, “I just don’t know how to tell the world but I feel like today has been like a sign. The last time I got on Live, I kind of wanted to tell you. I kind of wanted to tell you guys but I didn’t know how to tell you. So I changed my mind but it has been like this for a minute now. I just took it as a sign. I wanted to start 2024 like fresh, open. I don’t know. I’m curious for a new life, for a new beginning.”

Cardi B and Offset got married in a secret wedding in September 2017. The estranged couple has two children together – 5-year-old Kulture Kiari Cephus and 2-year-old Wave Set Cephus. This weekend also saw Cardi headlined the sold-out TikTok In The Mix global music event. Offset was also part of that show’s lineup.

Doja Cat had a message for non-Black concertgoers at a recent show. The daughter of a Jewish mother and South African father warned some of her fans not to repeat the n-words in her music.

A TikTok user named Kaydee Meseck posted a clip of Doja Cat performing “Ain’t S###” off the 2021 Planet Her album. The video from the Omaha, Nebraska performance has gone viral over the last several days.

“Watch your mouth if you’re white,” Doja tells her audience. She then began singing the “Ain’t S###” chorus: “N##### ain’t s###, come up in your crib. All up in your fridge, can’t pay rent.”

Previously, Doja Cat faced backlash online over her alleged association with white supremacists. #DojaCatIsOverParty and #OnlyKlans became trending topics in 2020 after critics accused the rapper/singer of appearing in racist chat forums.

“I learned that there are racist people who come in and out of the chat. They happen, then they’re banned. The idea that this chat room is a white supremacist chat room  – I don’t understand it in any way,” Doja stated at the time.

In addition, the Los Angeles native apologized for her “Dindu Nuffin” song. The track’s title refers to a racist term used to mock African Americans killed by police officers. Earlier this year, Doja also caught heat for wearing a shirt featuring the face of a documented supporter of neo-Nazis and white nationalists.

T.I. Gets Pulled Over By Georgia State Trooper After Arguing With Tiny [VIDEO]

By: Yohance Kyles (@HUEYmixwitRILEY)Category: News

Clifford “T.I.” Harris has had numerous run-ins with the law throughout his life. New footage of a Georgia state trooper pulling T.I. over has made its way to the internet.

According to Live PD Hardcore, the law enforcement officer made a traffic stop after viewing the vehicle speeding on an Atlanta-area highway. The driver of the Range Rover turned out to be Harris.

“You just flew past my door at a very high rate of speed. You drove on the shoulder back there and almost struck that car,” the trooper tells T.I. after asking him to exit his SUV.

At one point, T.I. admitted to arguing with the woman in the car. His wife, R&B singer/songwriter Tiny Harris, was the assumed passenger. However, the woman never showed up on camera.

“She was getting on my nerves. I apologize. She was getting under my skin,” T.I. stated. He later added, “I just wanted to get home as fast as I could so we can get out of the car, and I can go to my space and she can go to her space.”

T.I. had trouble providing the vehicle’s registration because he purchased the Range Rover that same day. After getting the information from the owner of the car dealership, the trooper let Harris off with three citations.

The date of the state trooper’s dashcam video hasn’t been confirmed. The Live PD Hardcore YouTube channel published the footage on December 1. T.I. has yet to publicly address the situation, as of press time.

Stormzy Says Growing Up Without A Dad Made Him “Man Up”

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Stormzy has admitted he felt the pressure of being the only man in the house growing up.

During an interview with British Vogue, Stormzy opened up about growing up in London with his single mother and two sisters.

“I am the man in my family,” the 30-year-old told the publication. “I’ve got my mum and my sisters, I am provider and protector. It’s just a lot of things that I wish I had.”

Stormzy also addressed the absence of his father, whom he recently got in touch with.

“I have always felt like his absence in my life has had zero effect, that it was a very indifferent thing,” Stormzy remembered. “But the bit that’s irking is where I feel like I need to man up. And not in the toxic way that people tell young boys to ‘man up’, because I feel like, let the youths cry.”

“Let the youths feel, innit,” he continued. “For me, it’s where I need what I think a dad would do. What a good dad would do for his son.”

The rapper, who dropped out of school and pursued an apprenticeship at an oil refinery, explained that he dislikes social media because it isn’t an accurate depiction of his life.

“That’s why I mad hate social media,” Stormzy, real name Michael Owuo Jr., said. “Because it’s made everyone think that I just got there. A young artist will look at me and think, ‘Oh, he’s just got it figured out.'”

Pharrell Williams Reveals Biggest Lesson Working At Louis Vuitton

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Pharrell Williams has revealed what he has learned while working with Louis Vuitton.

The musician was appointed the men’s creative director of the Parisian luxury brand earlier this year to replace the late Virgil Abloh, who passed away in November 2021.

In an interview with GQ, Pharrell reflected on what he has learned during his time with the label so far.

“One of the greatest things that I’ve learned is about really concentrating on how to do something great, and how important it is to have the resources to bring it to life,” Pharrell told the outlet. “Being surrounded by the greatest of the greats, team wise, it just makes all the difference in the world. I mean, you can have good ideas all the time. There’s so many people with great ideas, but when you don’t have the right team around you and the unlimited resources and support, it’s just extremely difficult. I’ve learned that.”

Pharrell added, “I don’t know how I got anything done before this. Now I’m used to working with an orchestra of brilliant talent.”

Pharrell’s sophomore show for the brand took place in Hong Kong on Thursday last week. The event followed his debut fashion show in Paris in June.

In the interview, the 50-year-old discussed the success of his debut presentation.

“I didn’t have any expectations,” he admitted. “I just was so caught up in the process, as I am now. I’m just very… I’m not overwhelmed in a negative way, but I am consumed by the creative process and executing and getting things right. That’s so important to me.”

SZA Prefers To Write “Embarrassing” Songs

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

SZA prefers to write “interesting” songs rather than joyful ones. The Grammy Award-winning artist becomes bored of writing music that isn’t “embarrassing” to share.

“I guess it’s because I get bored as f### writing about anything that isn’t, like, super embarrassing,” SZA told Variety. “And I feel like those things that I don’t want to say or acknowledge about myself are (songwriting) material – if it interests me to the point where it’s worth the risk.”

The “Snooze” hitmaker tends to make music about her life’s “hidden aspects” rather than the obvious ones.

“There’s mad aspects to my life,” SZA explained. “But people don’t really know that because all I sing about are the hidden aspects that I think are more interesting. Honestly, I could write about jet-skiing with my friends, but I don’t want to make a song about that, and I don’t want to hear a song about it either.”

Elsewhere in the interview, SZA revealed that she never has a topic in mind when she sits down to write a song.

“I just let the beat tell me what to do, and then I start babbling and making words, and it starts to form itself,” SZA told the publication, revealing her phone is filled with memos and voice notes. “It’s like a puzzle. Sometimes I write down phrases, but I never go back to those – even though they’re always good-a*s phrases!”

She added, “They go back years and years and years. It’s all music and random bounces and writing.”

Takeoff Pursued For Sexual Assault Lawsuit Despite Death & His Mom Could Be Liable

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

The woman who filed a lawsuit alleging that the late rapper Takeoff sexually assaulted her in 2020, two years before his death, is seeking to substitute the rapper’s mother, Titiana Davenport, as the defendant in the suit. 

The original complaint was filed in August 2020 in Los Angeles Superior Court. The woman accused Takeoff of sexual assault during a party in an Encino home on June 23, 2020.

The plaintiff’s lawsuit details how Takeoff allegedly made several advances on the night of the incident, which she rejected. Despite making it clear that she was not interested, the lawsuit alleges that the rapper followed her into a bedroom and forced himself on her.

He vehemently denied the allegations, and the L.A. County District Attorney’s office declined to press charges due to insufficient evidence.

The Migos rapper was tragically shot to death on November 1, 2022, at a Houston bowling alley before the lawsuit could be resolved.

Last week, attorneys representing the woman filed court papers demanding that Takeoff’s mom, acting as the administrator of her son’s estate, replace her late son in the lawsuit. 

In June, Davenport had already filed a $1 million wrongful death lawsuit against the owners of 810 Billiards & Bowling Houston, the venue where her son was killed.

‌

This lawsuit claims negligence on the part of the venue and its associated business entities for failing to provide a safe and secure environment, leading to her son’s death at the party. 

The lawsuit does not name any individuals directly associated with Takeoff’s shooting, including Patrick Clark, the man criminally charged with his murder. 

Clark is accused of firing multiple gunshots into a crowd, fatally striking Takeoff.

Davenport, as Takeoff’s surviving parent and administrator of his estate, is seeking compensation for a range of damages, including mental anguish, pain and suffering, medical and funeral expenses, loss of companionship, and loss of earning capacity.

Kim Kardashian’s Acting Career Exploding With Another New Role

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Kim Kardashian has landed the lead role in Ryan Murphy’s upcoming legal series.

The reality star has landed her first leading role in the untitled legal drama, described as a “high-end, glossy and sexy adult procedural,” according to Deadline.

The series will mark Kim Kardashian and Ryan’s second time working together, following the Skims founder’s breakthrough performance in “American Horror Story: Delicate,” created by Ryan and Brad Falchuk.

Kim, 43, is set to portray “Los Angeles’ most successful divorce lawyer and the owner of an all-female law firm.” Ryan and the writers reportedly pitched the series to Kim and Kris Jenner, who committed to the project “right away.”

The mother-daughter duo will also act as executive producers for the series. The show, written by Jon Robin Baitz and Joe Baken, has been taken on by Hulu, which is home to the family’s reality show, “The Kardashians.”

The TV star should feel right at home in her upcoming role, as she is an aspiring lawyer. In 2021, she passed the baby bar and she is currently preparing for the bar exam.

The news comes soon after it was reported that the business mogul will star in “The 5th Wheel,” a comedy film written by former Saturday Night Live scribe Paula Pell and her comedian wife Janine Brito.

Mariah Carey Says Being A “Diva” Is No Big Deal

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Mariah Carey doesn’t understand why people think being labeled a diva is a “big deal.”

In a new digital cover story for People, Mariah Carey revealed she has learned to embrace the term as a reflection of her global success rather than view it in a negative light.

“So many people that I know that are called ‘divas’ all the time, don’t take offense to it,” Mariah explained. “Who cares? Why is it a big deal? Just take it and be on your merry way.”

The 54-year-old star was also quizzed on how she has maintained a cool and calm exterior throughout her years of stardom.

Some fans are so impressed with her unflappable appearance that they have labeled her the “Queen of Being Unbothered.”

“I don’t know if I’m the Queen of Being Unbothered,” Mariah replied. “I guess maybe if they want to call me that, that’s a good thing to be. I don’t know that I’m always un-bothered. But I try to be bothered when I’m by myself. Not in front of the world.”

During the interview, the music superstar also joked that she ignores the traditional method of tracking dates and years.

“Years? What are years?” Mariah quipped. “I’m unfamiliar with them.”

She then added that she prefers to live “Christmastime to Christmastime.”

The “All I Want for Christmas Is You” star is on her “Merry Christmas One and All” U.S. and Canada tour, ending in Madison Square Garden on December 17.

Once the shows are done, she’s determined to celebrate in style with her 12-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan, as she admitted last year’s Yuletide “wasn’t the greatest.”

EXCLUSIVE: Cam’ron To Pay Huge Sum For Using His Own Image As Legal War With Joe Budden Heats Up

By: Grouchy Greg Watkins (@GrouchyGreg)Category: Exclusives

Cam’ron may be ready for a legal showdown with Joe Budden, but he may want to take care of his own backyard first – pause.

In case you missed it, “The Joe Budden Podcast” co-host Melyssa Ford raised a question about the possibility of underage girls being present at a brothel Cam’ron and Ma$e visited in the 1990s, after The Diplomats leader shared a wild story on his hit sports talk show, “It Is What It Is.”

The insinuation led to a backlash and Cam’ron obviously took offense and threatened to sue for defamation. 

But, the beef with Joe Budden may have to take a back seat due to more pressing issues – pause – because a photographer is asking a judge to award her a five-figure default judgment for using a picture of himself on his clothing brand.

Back in April, Cam’ron was sued by a photographer named Djamilla Cochran. The legal action stemmed from Cam’ron’s use of a 2003 photo featuring him in a pink coat with a matching flip phone, which became a signature image on clothing he was selling.

The lawsuit alleged that Cam’ron used the photo on merchandise, including t-shirts and hoodies, sold in his Dipset Couture store without obtaining proper licensing.

Cam ignored multiple warnings about copyright infringement, despite notifications from Getty Images and he never bothered to reply to the lawsuit. Now, the photographer is asking for a default judgment of $57,000 plus almost $10,000 bucks in legal fees.

She also wants an accounting of all of the merch Cam has sold using the picture in question so she can take the profits.

Cam’ron probably isn’t going to sweat the default judgment. He recently inked a $10 million deal with Underdog Fantasy, which signed on as the sponsor of the runaway hit show “It Is What It Is” with co-hosts Ma$e and Treasure “Stat Baby” Wilson.

Additionally, Cam’ron’s male enhancement drug, PinkHorsePower, has been flying off the shelves.

But his feud with Joe Budden and Melyssa Ford only seems to be escalating, despite her apology to Cam.

Joe Budden, in response, stood by Ford and challenged Cam’ron to proceed with the lawsuit if he believed he had a case. 

On the latest episode of “The Joe Budden Podcast,” Budden emphasized his refusal to engage in back-and-forth disputes and expressed his belief that Cam’ron’s potential lawsuit would be frivolous and unlikely to succeed.

However, the pair traded shots over the weekend – pause.

Nicki Minaj Reveals Exact Moment She Wanted Breast Reduction

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Nicki Minaj has revealed that she officially decided to get a breast reduction after the 2022 Met Gala.

Nicki opened up to Vogue for its Life In Looks video segment about feeling self-conscious in her 2022 Met Gala outfit.

“I just realized just this moment that actually there was something good that came out of this,” Nicki Minaj noted when shown a photo of herself at the event. “It’s what really cemented the fact for me that I had to get my breast reduction.”

At last year’s fashion extravaganza, Nicki Minaj wore a black strapless Burberry gown and a leather baseball cap. Although she “loved” the look while being fitted, she raised her concerns about her boobs spilling out of the dress.

“I said, ‘You guys, listen, look, these boobs are gonna be spilling out,'” Nicki recalled. “And by the time we were ready to go, I looked in the mirror, I said, ‘Guys, my boobs are still spilling out.'”

The singer and rapper admitted that she “knew before we even left the room that the boobs were about to have a night of their own.”

The 41-year-old joked about her situation on the Met Gala red carpet, telling Page Six, “The only unplanned thing about my look is my boobs popping out because they made my cup size a little small. Enjoy these t**ies, ’cause y’all ain’t gonna see that ever again.”

Nicki revealed in June that she had undergone breast reduction surgery.

Iman Shumpert Denies Being Cruel To Teyana Taylor

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Iman Shumpert has denied that he was cruel to his estranged wife, Teyana Taylor.

According to court documents, the basketball player has asked a judge to dismiss his estranged wife’s claim that the reason she wanted to end their marriage was because she felt endangered.

When Taylor filed for divorce from Shumpert, she cited “cruel treatment” as the reason for their split. The legal definition for this term is “willful infliction of pain bodily or mental… (that) reasonably justifies apprehension of danger to life, limb, or health.”

Teyana Taylor also claimed that Shumpert was irresponsible with the pair’s two children: seven-year-old Junie and three-year-old Rue Rose.

The new filing from Shumpert requested to replace Taylor’s “cruel treatment” claim with an “irretrievably broken bond” and dismiss the irresponsible parenting claims.

He argued Teyana Taylor offered no evidence that he made her feel unsafe.

The singer secretly filed for divorce from the sportsman in January but didn’t announce their split publicly until September.

“Iman and I are separated and have been for a while. To be 1000% clear, ‘infidelity’ isn’t one reason for our departure,” she wrote at the time. “We are still best friends and great business partners, and we are one hell of a team when co-parenting our two beautiful children. Most importantly, we are FAMILY & in the ten years together, seven years married, we ain’t ever played with or about THAT.”

She added, “The only reason I’m even sharing THIS part of the chat is because the narratives are getting a little out of hand & it’s unfair to all parties involved. I hope this provided some clarity for you all.”

Charleston White Attacked & Pummeled During Comedy Show Chaos

By: Mike WinslowCategory: News

Charleston White was attacked during a performance in Crocket, Texas. In a viral video of the incident, White was mocking a person in the audience, which led to a heated exchange.

“They was heckling me and so I accused them n####s of being a nephew and an uncle who f### each other,” White explained to Adin Ross during a live stream. “So the uncle with the Kobe Bryant jersey stands up and walked toward the stage and said ‘let me get on stage.’ So I feared for my life and hit him with the flower vase.”

The fan, fueled by anger, leaped onto the stage. The situation quickly spiraled out of control as White found himself outnumbered and overpowered. His security was caught off guard and struggled to effectively intervene. The crowd watched in shock as White was tackled and pummeled onstage.

Despite the chaos, Charleston White later recounted the incident with a different perspective. Unfazed and defiant, he claimed victory against his assailants, boasting about his resilience and lack of injuries.

Charleston White has been involved in other controversial incidents. He once claimed to have been attacked in a barbershop and shared a video showing him with visible bruises, purportedly from being pistol-whipped. This video went viral, but White claimed he’d fabricated the entire incident, stating that the bruises were part of an elaborate ruse. He also supposedly shot himself on accident in a club.

Regardless, folks on social media seemed to take joy in White’s latest altercation and assumed he was on the losing end of the fight, despite the fact he emerged relatively unscathed.

How to Become a Caregiver For a Family Member in Indiana

By: Staff WriterCategory: Uncategorized

Caring for a loved one can be a rewarding experience, but it can also be financially challenging. In Indiana, there are several ways you can get paid for caring for a loved one. Here are four options to consider: 

1. Indiana’s Aged and Disabled (A&D) Waiver: This is a Medicaid program that provides home and community-based services to individuals who are aged 65 or older or have a disability. The A&D Waiver offers a range of services, including personal care assistance.  These services are designed to support individuals with activities of daily living, such as bathing, dressing, meal preparation and medication management.  If your loved one qualifies for this program, you may be able to get paid as their caregiver by getting hired by a home care agency like Graceful Aging Home Care. 

2. Veterans Affairs (VA) Aid and Attendance Benefit: If your loved one is a veteran or the surviving spouse of a veteran, they may be eligible for the VA Aid and Attendance Benefit. This benefit provides financial assistance to veterans who require the aid and attendance of another person to perform daily activities. As a caregiver, you may be able to receive payment for your services through this program. 

3. Long-Term Care Insurance: If your loved one has a long-term care insurance policy, it may cover the cost of in-home care. Check the policy details to see if it includes coverage for family caregivers. Some policies allow for reimbursement of caregiving expenses, while others may have a cash benefit specifically for family caregivers. 

4. Personal Care Agreements: Creating a personal care agreement is another option to consider. This is a legally binding contract between you and your loved one, outlining the caregiving services you will provide and the compensation you will receive. While this option may not provide direct financial assistance, it can help formalize the arrangement and ensure that you are compensated for your time and effort.

 It’s important to note that eligibility requirements and available programs may vary, so it’s advisable to consult with a professional or contact the relevant agencies to determine the best options for your situation. Additionally, keep in mind that caregiving can be physically and emotionally demanding, so it’s essential to prioritize self-care and seek support when needed. 

Caring for a loved one is a noble act, and finding ways to get paid for your caregiving services can help ease the financial burden. Explore these options by contacting Graceful Aging Home Care at 866-675-7850 and take advantage of the resources available to you in Indiana.

FBI Arrests Quando Rondo On Federal Drug Charges As Legal Problems Mount

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Quando Rondo has more legal issues to deal with after he was arrested early Saturday morning (December 9) on federal drug charges, as confirmed by the FBI.

The Chatham County Detention Center’s booking records reveal that Quando Rondo, is now facing a federal custody hold.

The arrest adds to a history of legal issues for the rapper, including a previous indictment for drug and gang-related charges.

In June, Quando Rondo was one of 19 individuals charged in a multi-page indictment out of Chatham County, Georgia, facing 49 counts of drug charges, gang affiliation, and illegal use of cell phones.

The indictment claimed that Quando Rondo directed the Rollin’ 60s gang in Georgia and engaged in drug deals dating back to October 2022 in violation of Georgia’s Controlled Substances Act.

He and his co-conspirators were allegedly involved in trafficking substances such as cocaine, fentanyl, hydrocodone, and M30 pills and even used jail phones to orchestrate drug deals.

He was also accused of violating the Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act as a manager of the Rollin’ 60’s.

Quando Rondo’s alleged behavior was so despicable that the Chatham County DA asked the rapper to be banned from performing in the county and in Savannah, until his trial was completed.

Quando Rondo was free on a $100,000 bond until his arrest today.

The rapper was almost sent back to jail in July after he was involved in a car accident.

He had supposedly overdosed on Benzodiazepines and had to be revived using Narcan.

A judge allowed him to remain free, but it was all for nothing. He is currently being housed at the Chatham County Jail with no bond.

Ginuwine Defends Justin Timberlake In “Blaccent” Controversy Caused By Britney Spears

By: AllHipHop StaffCategory: News

Ginuwine has claimed he doesn’t recall the Justin Timberlake encounter described in Britney Spears’s memoir.

In her autobiography, “The Woman in Me,” the pop star claimed that her then-boyfriend adopted a “blaccent” when he met the “Pony” hitmaker.

However, when asked about the encounter in an interview with People, Ginuwine insisted he had no recollection of it.

“Yeah, yeah, I definitely heard about it. People were calling about that. But I can tell you I don’t remember that happening. I truly don’t remember that happening,” he stated.

“If Justin would’ve did something like that, I probably would’ve looked at him like, ‘Why are you acting like that?’ If he did that, that would be something that I would remember. That would’ve definitely stuck out. So nah, I don’t remember that happening.”

In the book, which was released in October, Britney claimed that Justin and his NSYNC bandmates “tried too hard” to fit in with Black artists.

“J got all excited and said, so loud, ‘Oh yeah, fo shiz, fo shiz! Ginuwiiiine! What’s up, homie?'” the Toxic singer wrote.

This line went viral on social media thanks to Oscar-nominated actress Michelle Williams’ impression of Justin while narrating the audiobook.

Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake dated between 1999 and 2002.

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: Rumors

Memphis rapper Finesse2tymes has responded to rumors he allegedly ordered members of his entourage to jump his own brother during a trip to Miami.

According the FNG NoLove, who claims to be the brother of the “Back End” rapper, the alleged incident occurred after he and Finesse2tymes were involved in a verbal disagreement.

2 Chainz Rushed To Miami Hospital By Ambulance Following Horrific Car Crash

By: Kyle EusticeCategory: News

2 Chainz was in Miami on Saturday morning (December 9) when he was involved in a serious car accident. According to TMZ, the Welcome 2 Collegrove rapper was driving down I-95 when he attempted to take an exit. At that point, a Tesla slammed into his vehicle, causing a significant crash. Police believe the driver of the other car was possibly under the influence and simply lost control.

2 Chainz was rushed to the hospital by ambulance with, at the very least, neck injuries. He’s reported to be in stable condition. 2 Chainz posted an Instagram video of himself being wheeled into the back of the ambulance shortly after the incident, a good indication his injuries weren’t too severe. The Georgia native was in town for Miami Art Basel and had been partying at a local strip club called B#### Trap.

2 Chainz and Lil Wayne just unleashed their joint album, Welcome 2 Collegrove, last month. The project follows the 2016’s ColleGrove, which was solely credited to 2 Chainz due to Lil Wayne’s issues with his label, although hes featured prominently throughout the album. The word “Collegrove” is a portmanteau of 2 Chainz’s hometown, College Park, Georgia, and Lil Wayne’s hometown, Hollygrove, Louisiana. The 21-track project run roughly 60 minutes and includes guest appearances by 21 Savage, Usher, Rick Ross, Fabolous, Benny the Butcher, Marsha Ambrosius and Vory.

2 Chainz opened up about the anxiety he felt making the album alongside Lil Wayne during a recent interview with Apple Music. He said, “I think me and him just have that chemistry. We enjoy working with each other a lot, and it’s a lot of respect there. And as I always say, steel sharpens steel. So, it’s always that little piece of anxiety of knowing that this verse has to be better than the last one. I think it’s healthy. I think competition is healthy in any and everything that we do.”

AllHipHop wishes 2 Chainz a speed recovery.

Tyga & MSCHF’s “Wavy Baby” Sneaker Loses Federal Appeal In Vans Case

By: Devon JeffersonCategory: News

Tyga and streetwear brand MSCHF’s 2022 “Wavy Baby” sneaker collaboration likely violates Vans’ company trademarks based on a new ruling from a federal appeals court.

On Tuesday (December 6), U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit upheld a ruling from April 2022 that banned MSCHF from future sales of the Wavy Baby. MSCHF previously claimed their creation was a parody of the iconic Vans logo and protected by First Amendment speech and that the shoe was a legal parody designed to “consumerism inherent in sneakerhead culture.” However, according to the ruling, “no special First Amendment protections apply” to the sneaker, as MSCHF previously argued, thus the shoes infringe on Vans’ trademark rights.

“If a parodic use of protected marks and trade dress leaves confusion as to the source of a product, the parody has not ‘succeeded’ for purposes of the [federal trademark law], and the infringement is unlawful,” the court wrote.

Vans also previously argued that not only did the Wavy Baby sneaker infringe on their trademarks, but it also could potentially mislead their consumers into believing it was a product associated with their brand. The base of the claim was in their previous partnerships with A$AP Rocky, Metallica and other artists.

“Given Vans’ history of collaborations with musical artists, on information and belief, the collaboration between MSCHF and Michael Stevenson “[Tyga] is intended to deceive consumers into believing they are purchasing a product made by, sponsored by, approved by, or otherwise associated with Vans,” the company’s lawyers wrote at the time.

At the time the lawsuit was filed in 2022, Tyga and MSCHF had already sold 4,306 pairs of the Wavy Baby sneaker—from which all the proceeds from the sales were placed into escrow for potential returns. This new ruling effectively bans MSCHF from future sales of the sneaker.
