He wrote on Instagram, “First time addressing the situation. For 2 years I been walking around with no security. Not saying I promote that BUT now you see I really never hid from anything. If you ever crossed my path or ever came to my house (you girls know who you are) ya can tell the world ‘Danny drives his own cars and be solo.’”

“You know how many of you people seen me in real life by myself in gas stations, supermarkets, restaurants, etc.,” he continued to say, adding, “Anyway what happen here was nothing but cowardly. I’m not mad this happened. In the street there’s no rules so I cant say they were wrong.”

He further expressed, “Obviously, it wasn’t fair but again the streets has no rules. Just imagine having nothing to do to with a situation and feel obligated to make it your business. (Very weird) I’m happy to be here still. And I want to say I love my fans. Thank you.”

6ix9ine said he “never knew” that the streets “respected” people who outnumber and jump other people.

Asking, “When did that ever become a W???”

Benzino Wants LGBTQ Community To Stop Flirting With Him

Raymond “Benzino” Scott has faced accusations of being romantically involved with transgender women. However, the former co-owner of The Source magazine took to Twitter to insist that he is not attracted to LGBTQ individuals.

Benzino called on certain members of the LGBTQ community to stop contacting him on social media. The Shade Room posted screenshots of Zino’s now-deleted tweets that corroborated his previous claims of being heterosexual.

“Attention to all in the LGBTQ, abcd!!! I respect y’all’s movement and your decision to be who you want to be BUT STOP THE WEIRD S### WITH THE COMMENTS AND FLIRTING. I’M NOT F###### FLATTERED BECAUSE I’M NOT GAY!! RESPECT THAT S### AS I RESPECT WHO YOU ARE!! 🤬😡😤,” wrote Benzino.

The Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta alumnus also added, “F### y’all mad at me for?? Cause I ain’t [with] that s###? I know it ain’t all gays & not all gay men are disrespectful but it’s a lot who are, it’s been going on for a while. I don’t wanna see that on my timeline. Just respect that. I’m straight, and [I don’t give a f###] about none y’all comments.”

Last year, rumors circulated claiming Benzino once dated a transgender woman named Shauna Brooks. He denied the allegations. The speculation led to Zino seemingly threatening to physically harm his accusers and suing media outlets that covered the story.

Benzino also blasted openly gay rapper Lil Nas X. The “Rock the Party” rapper took issue with Lil Nas kissing another man on stage at the televised 2021 BET Awards. Critics condemned Zino for supposedly spreading homophobic rhetoric.

“I just feel like sometimes things can be forced, and they don’t have to be. I think Lil Nas X was trying to show he’s gay and gay’s here, but we already knew that. You don’t have to push the envelope so much. Gay people are here. The movement’s here,” said Benzino in response to the criticism over his comments about the “Old Town Road” hitmaker.

The Boston, Massachusetts native continued, “I think the LGBT community – a lot of them are great people – but then you got some who just want to bully their lifestyle on people. I don’t think that’s fair. I think in this instance I’ve seen LGBT [people] speak and actually agree with what I’m saying.”

Andrew Tate Out On House Arrest After Spending Months In Jail

Controversial influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan won an appeal to be released on house arrest amid a criminal probe in Romania.

Last December, Andrew Tate and his brother were detained on allegations of human trafficking, organized crime and rape. The two spent several months in Romanian jail but haven’t been formally charged.

“We are ecstatic to announce the Romanian judicial system approved Andrew’s and Tristan Tate’s appeal against last week’s extension decision,” a spokesperson for the Tates told Insider. “Both brothers are looking forward to being reunited with their families in Romania and want to extend their thanks to all the supporters who have stood by them during this time. They will continue to fight to clear their name of these fabricated accusations; however, this is a big step in the right direction.”

Authorities will continue their investigation of Andrew Tate and his associates. Romania’s anti-organized crime agency DIICOT previously identified six alleged victims in the human trafficking case.

The victims were allegedly subjected to mental and physical coercion. Authorities accused the Tate brothers of sexually exploiting women.

Andrew Tate, who gained a massive online audience for his misogynistic opinions, denied any wrongdoing. He claimed there is a conspiracy to silence him.

Evander Griiim Unveils “New Woman” Visual

With new artists emerging every day, Evander Griiim serves as a breath of fresh air in the music industry. The rising star hails from El Paso, Texas, serving as a voice for all the people in the world chasing success and the highs and lows that come with it. The three i’s in his name represent the father, son, and Holy Spirit, which means with any bad situation, there’s always good.

Today, Evander Griiim returns with the highly-anticipated music video for his newest single titled “New Woman.” The record itself is inspired by real-life experiences, touching on the topic of relationships we all can relate to. “New Woman” sees Evander playing with other people’s feelings, trying to fulfill his own. We all have been in that position where we try to find a certain person within others, and sometimes that can bring negative connotations.

The official music video picks up where his previous visual, “Tom Ford,” leaves off. From being in a penthouse with a beautiful female to now leaving the apartment, the visual sees Evander reflecting on his past woes late night on the beach, singing his heart out as he tries to cope with his reality.

“I want fans to feel me,” Evander states. “Anything I do in my music, I want people to feel the vibrations I’m putting out. I want people to relate. It’s okay to be in touch with your dark side, nobody’s perfect. Everybody has bad things going on. Heartbreak and love, trying to deal with all that. You’re not alone.”

The 30-year-old rap star flaunted her body a week after receiving more good news in her legal battle against vlogger Tasha K. The Eleventh Circuit of the United States Court of Appeals denied Tasha K’s appeal, upholding Cardi B’s victory in a defamation lawsuit.

“There are two issues here,” the judges explained. “One is whether the jury had sufficient evidence to hold appellants—Latasha Kebe and others—liable for defamation (and other privacy torts) against appellee Belcalis Almanzar (better known as ‘Cardi B’). The other is whether the district court erred by excluding evidence. We hold that Kebe hasn’t preserved either issue for appeal.”

Jurors found Tasha K liable for defamation, invasion of privacy and intentional infliction of emotional distress in 2022. A judge ordered her to pay more than $4 million to Cardi B.

Lauren London On Anniversary Of Nipsey Hussle’s Death: “Nothing Was Ever The Same”

Lauren London paid tribute to her late boyfriend Nipsey Hussle via social media.

The actress reflected on Nipsey Hussle’s passing in an Instagram post on Friday (March 31). Lauren London described her anxiety over facing the anniversary of his death.

“I hold my breath all of March knowing I have to face the memory of the day you transitioned,” she wrote. “Holding on to ancient wisdom but the pain is the pain and nothing was ever the same… Eternal Being Ermias Asghedom I Love You.”

Lauren London included a quote from Baha’i sacred writings in her remembrance of Nipsey Hussle. Her post featured two photos of the slain rapper.

Nipsey Hussle, whose real name was Ermias Asghedom, was shot and killed outside his clothing store in Los Angeles in March 2019. He was 33.

Last year, a jury convicted Eric Holder Jr. of first-degree murder in the shooting death of Nipsey Hussle. Jurors also found Holder guilty of attempted voluntary manslaughter, assault with a firearm and possession of a firearm by a felon.

A judge sentenced Holder to 60 years to life in prison in February. Holder was not eligible for the death penalty.

John John Da Don Launches Talent Tour #NextTopBull

Rapper and battle rap league owner John John Da Don has announced that he is about to embark on a talent search tour called the Next Top Bull.

While roaming talent searches are not new—The Ultimate Rap League’s “Crucible” travels from state to state looking for new talent and his best friend Hitman Holla just launched his “Bags and Bodies” talent search reality show— there is always something special when JJDD puts his stamp on a product.

AllHipHop.com spoke directly to the Yonkers emcee and he told us exclusively to share why he decided to do a talent search.

“One thing I always get asked besides ‘when is your next battle?’ is ‘how can I get on Bullpen?'” he said. “So now we are doing a tour to go find new talent from all four corners of the country to push through our platform.”

Adding this was why he actually created the platform. He said, “Bullpen Battle League was created for the up & coming battle rappers that feel/felt counted out. We wanted to give them a platform that allows them room to grow, find themselves, and potentially be the next battle rap star.”

“Being that I started from the entry point in battle rap and was able to excel to become one of the top names in battle rap, I have the experience that all up-and-coming battle rappers could learn from. Most league owners aren’t and were never battle rappers, so they can’t relate to the battlers the way I can,” John John shared before getting off to square up details for his April 16th Pendemic card.

He made the announcement on social media: “People always ask how can they get on @bullpenbattleleague here’s how❗️#NextTopBull tour 2023.”

Additionally, if anyone is interested they should email a submission to Ne*********@***il.com to get a chance to be on one of the industry’s most solid platforms.

John John Da Don says, “We looking for new talent to push through the @bullpenbattleleague platform”

The bulls in JJDD’s pen are always on go. Names like Loso and Bad Newz are some of the top battlers in the culture.

The talent search plans to visit the following cities: July 30 in Yonkers, NY, and Sept. 17 in Atlanta, GA.

Dates to be determined are as follows: Aug. 5, Aug. 13, Aug. 20, Aug. 27, Sept. 3, and Sept. 10.

Winners will walk away with $1,000 and a spot on the league.

Pendemic is one of the league’s annual biggest cards.

Tay-K Sends Message To Fans About Life Changes He Made Since Being Incarcerated

Rapper Tay-K is celebrating a recent victory even from behind bars.

On Thursday, March 23, the chart-topper’s 2017 song “The Race” reportedly just surpassed 1 billion streams, according to Daily Rap Facts.

The Texas native was unable to celebrate as most artists would by partying with friends and family— but he did make sure those who support him knew his gratitude for them standing by him.

He actually got deep and spoke about the changes he is making in his life. He also placed emphasis on growing up in the system aiding some of the bad decisions he made in his very young life.

A post shared by TAY-K (@tayk47shawty)

Tay-K wrote a letter to fans from his jail cell that reads:

“Yo! I’m sitting here thinking about all my fans. I love and miss y’all. I know there’s a lot that I haven’t directly spoke on and there R many things my fans know but I’m not sure everybody else does. I’ve been here for 5 ½ years now and I feel indebted to y’all for going so crazy behind me.

It’s still crazy to me that I never had a chance to live outside as an adult. I’ve been locked up and in and out of the “justice” and CPS system 4 my whole life. Not sure if y’all know but I got sentenced as an adult to 55 years in prison for a crime where I wasn’t even the shooter. I wasn’t even alleged to have a gun. I was never even suspected to have pulled a trigger or hurt anyone. I was young and didn’t have no positive figures around.

Now that I’m older, I know how important focusing on leading by example is. I love my fans and I don’t want any 1 to think I’m promoting or really recommending violence. That’s why I really dedicated a lot of my time in here to using the success of my music to have a positive impact on other young artists, even if it is something small like taking a phone call or writing a letter to keep them positively inspired, regardless of my situation. The movement is Eternal. #RR4L.”

Tay-K was 19 when he was sent to jail.

As reported by AllHipHop.com he and arrested and charged for a crime he committed when he was a minor. Based on his sentence, the artist will be between 60 and almost 80 years old when he is released.

Jadakiss Is Down For Another Verzuz With Jim Jones & Dipset

 It looks like the man of the hour is not one to back down at all.

Jadakiss has accepted Jim Jones’s offered to do another 12 rounds in a Verzuz battle. Check out our interview with Jimmy:

Apparently, according to VIBE, he is down.

Here is exactly what he said, “You gotta talk to my advisors (laughs). I would love to run it back, you know what I mean? Why not? For sure.”

Click the link below to hear what sources close to Cam’ron are saying about this proposed battle royale. 

Cam’Ron Responds To Jim Jones Verzuz Talk

There is one factor that can change all of this: MONEY! There is a strong possibility that we can get things moving with MONEY! We need Timbaland and Swizzy to get several BAGS and then present them to The Lox and The Dips! Let us begin!!!

Seriously, we linked up with The Lox last summer and they really seemed OVER the Verzuz. The world be about four Verzuz for Kiss. I could be wrong, but I think I am right. Kiss is just talking. Nobody else is down for this. We have not seen Freekey Zekey since! 

Sheek Louch got some new music out. Styles P got a new album. It looks as if Jim is really the most competitive dude out of Dipset. Cam is a sports talk show host now, running with Ma$e.

I could be wrong, but I think I am right. 

EXCLUSIVE: Ice-T Preps New Album, Says He’s Coming For Slick Rick’s Storytelling Throne

Recently one of Hip-Hop’s most iconic rappers and actors, Ice-T took the time to speak with AllHipHop in an exclusive interview while promoting his new iHeartPodcast, Ice-T’s Daily Game.

Speaking candidly on a host of topics ranging from his new iHeartPodcast to his acting roles on Dick Wolf’s shows like Law and Order SVU and New York Undercover, Ice-T opened up and shared information for the first time on his new album, The Legend of ICE-T “Crime Stories” Vol 1 & 2

The compilation project will feature six new storytelling songs to add to his iconic catalog of music, while also throwing in some classics from back in the day.

“I got a rap project coming out and it’s called…First, I’ve never spoken on it yet… It’s called, The Legend of ICE-T “Crime Stories” Vol 1 & 2” Ice-T explained to AllHipHop. 

“It’s a compilation of all my story rhymes from all eight albums and about six new songs that are all story-based. You know, they say Slick Rick is the king of stories. I’m coming for that throne. Wait till you hear this. These are all my story records from ‘6 ’N the Mornin’’ to ‘Midnight’ and all these adventures put into one album. It’s a double vinyl release, it has two vinyls and it’s gonna be like a classic collector’s piece. The reason it’s titled The Legend of ICE-T is because a lot of things people believe about me are legend.”

Continuing to fan the flames of his own legendary status Ice-T elaborated on what motivated him to release his crime stories compilation.

“Legend is part false. You know, it’s like the night I got in the squabble in the club and I knocked one dude out, where a legend says it was three dudes.” Ice-T said laughing.

“A lot of this stuff that people believe about me are lyrics that aren’t necessarily true, but we’ll let the legend continue. So that’s what The Legend of ICE-T: Crime Stories is about, be on the lookout for that, that should be coming out within the next two to three months.”

While Ice-T currently holds the record for the longest-running male actor on a TV series with his role on Law and Order: Special Victims Unit, he still has no intentions of slowing down on the music side of the business. 

In addition to his rap album he’s been steadily at work with his Grammy Award-winning heavy metal rock group Body Count.

I kinda like the fact that in this Rap world, they don’t even know that I’m over here touring for hundreds of thousands of people doing Body Count shows. I kind of like the feeling of somebody thinking, well, ‘Ice-T’s played out, Ice-T is over with,’ and I’m making more money than they are, like, I dig it. I have a motto on my Daily Game Podcast. ‘If they sleeping on you, let ’em rest, man. Let ’em rest.’ But Body Count is right now in the studio doing Merciless the new album.”

Rapper BTB Savage Fatally Shot Allegedly Over Social Media Post

The Hip-Hop world is mourning the life of yet another young rising star— lost to the street life that he raps about in his music. Rapper BTB Savage was brutally killed on Thursday, March 30.

The death seems to be in retaliation for a murder of a person he claims tried to rob him and his girlfriend, and the disrespect he gave those grieving his enemy’s death. Hours before he was fatally shot, he posted a picture of himself allegedly standing in a pool of blood of the man he is rumored to have killed two months ago.

To see the graphic images too disrespectful for publishing, click here.

A passerby captured video footage of BTB Savage’s murder scene and posted it online. It appears to be a dead body on the ground that people believe to be the rapper.  Within minutes it went viral with people commenting on the death, payback, and notions of street karma.

According to sources, BTB Savage took to his social media and made posts where he bragged about killing the person.

Check out the mixed reactions from people online.

How Did BTB Savage Get Murdered So Fast?

Life as a savage shouldn’t be so rough. Got damn. BTB Savage was killed mere moments after posting a picture at a crime scene that involved his girlfriend. This ain’t funny so don’t you dare laugh.

BTB Savage is a rapper you may or may not have heard of, so spare me with the “WHO” comments. He is popular amongst the young and tapped in folks. I won’t get into his music, Google that. Here’s the deal: roughly a month ago, somebody hit up homie to do a song, according to my sources. When the person got to the spot, which happened to be BTB Savage’s girlfriend’s house, the dude tried to rob BTB. There was a fight and struggle.

When the smoke cleared, BTB’s GIRL came down and blasted the would be thief straight into the afterlife. Tragic and sad no matter how you slice it. She shot and killed the dude. If I am correct, BTB sustained injuries in that fracas but to his left arm—nothing fatal. What he does next is what apparently led to this death.

He posts this picture.

Unfortunately: should be a pic here, but the powers that be made me take it down.

BTB decides to post a picture of the scene where the alleged robber was slain—BLOOD EVERYWHERE! This was YESTERDAY, PEOPLE. Within hours, that man is dead. What he failed to realize—somehow or another—is that Houston is all real. I feel sorry for this young dude because made a fatal error.

They shot his ish UP!

The internet has some info. Basically (and allegedly), two people pulled up and opened fire at BTB’s car. Another report said there may have been as many as 12 people present and two shooters. Anyway, it was a Subaru and that’s pretty much that. I doubt anybody is doing that in their own car. Regardless, life comes at you fast and furious.

Believe it or not, old boy did an interview with DJ Vlad talking about the shooting and how it happened. It tells a bit of a different story. It reportedly says he was spending quality time with his girlfriend and his child when the robbers broke into the residence. They were fighting over a gun and then his girlfriend reportedly blasted and killed one of the men. That makes it more strange that he would taunt the would-be robbers.

RIP BTB SAVAGE.

Angela “Blac Chyna” White Discusses Her New Look After Removing Face Filters

Reality show star Angela White (formerly known as Blac Chyna) announced to the world her plans of reversing some of the cosmetic procedures on her body.

As part of her transition from Blac Chyna back to Angela White, the socialite/entrepreneur got silicon from illegal injections removed from her buttocks. She also had face fillers in her jaw, lips, and cheeks dissolved.

Angela White documented her plastic surgery reversals on her Instagram page which presently boasts 16.9 million followers. Additionally, the former exotic dancer made an appearance on The Tamron Hall Show to discuss her physical transformation.

“This is me now. So you can see the difference, right here in the cheek area. Yeah, see when I smile, now you can see all of my teeth. I had so much filler in my lips to where as though I couldn’t even barely smile, but you see now when I smile,” White told Tamron Hall.

As Blac Chyna, the DC native starred in reality television programs such as E!’s Rob & Chyna with former boyfriend Rob Kardashian and Zeus Network’s The Real Blac Chyna. Angela White is the mother of a 6-year-old daughter with Rob Kardashian as well as a 10-year-old son with rapper Tyga.

“I haven’t really told them anything. I just lead by example,” said White when asked what she shares about her new lifestyle with her children. “Like if I’m working out, they work out with me. I ask them to come to church with me. They’re like, ‘How far is it?’ And I’m like, ‘Oh God.’ Because it’s actually really far. I drive an hour and five minutes to my church and an hour and thirty minutes back every Sunday.”

In addition to making physical changes, Angela White also made spiritual changes in her life. She recently shared images of herself getting baptized with her social media following. The religious ritual took place on May 11, White’s 34th birthday.

“I am so protective of my sister. But seeing how happy she is, I’m happy,” stated Chlöe Bailey on 777 Radio. “I told [DDG] I had my eye on him. I said, ‘You f### with her, I’m killing you.’ I told him that. He knows. But yeah, she’s happy. She’s happy. So as long as she’s happy, I’m happy.”

Some social media users blasted DDG for publicly going back and forth with Rubi Rose after she seemingly took subliminal shots at Halle Bailey on Twitter. DDG even released the “Way Too Petty” diss track directed at Rose.

Meanwhile, Chlöe Bailey has her own music arriving on DSPs. The Swarm actress released her debut studio album, In Pieces, today (March 31). The 14-track LP features contributions by Chris Brown, Missy Elliott, and Future.

Brooke also displayed her love for NYC culture by partnering with Timberland for the footwear brand’s Hip Hop Royalty Boot campaign. She told MEFeater how another rap star from her hometown inspired her to start rapping.

“One of my memories of discovering my love for rap was seeing 50 Cent’s video for ‘Wanksta.’ He showed us something that I could relate to. It was so New York, so raw. You can still watch that video today and feel the energy,” expressed Lola Brooke.

In addition to dropping her own singles like “Don’t Play with It” featuring Billy B, Lola Brooke appeared on Flo Milli’s “Conceited” along with Maiya The Don. A remix for “Don’t Play with It” came out on Match 24. Latto and Yung Miami are featured on the new version.

Megan Thee Stallion Throws First Pitch At Astros’ Opening Day In Hometown Of Houston  

Proud Houston native Megan Thee Stallion played a starring role in the Houston Astros’ 2023 season-opener against the Chicago White Sox on Thursday night (Mar. 30).  

The Grammy Award winner was tasked with throwing out the ceremonial first pitch for the World Series champions at the Astros’ home opener. 

According to the commentary, Megan Thee Stallion was throwing strikes during her pre-game practice session. Donning a white Astros jersey tied at the front and matching white pants, she confidently stepped up to the pitcher’s mound. 

After taking in the moment, the H-Town Hottie joked that she was scared before throwing a pitch to David Hensley. Unfortunately, she missed the intended target and landed just outside the left-handed batter’s box.  

However, despite their exciting opener, the game didn’t end well for the reigning champs. The White Sox won the game over the Astors with a 3-2 victory. Check out Meg’s pitching prowess in the clip below.  

Meanwhile, as well as hanging out with the Astros, Megan Thee Stallion is back in her hometown to perform at the NCAA March Madness Music Festival on Friday. Although engaged in a legal dispute with the “Plan B” hitmaker, her record label urged the city to support her headlining set at the AT&T Block Party. 

After recently expressing his regret over their bitter public feud, 1501 CEO Carl Crawford extended another olive branch. The former MLB star took to Instagram on Wednesday to welcome Megan Thee Stallion back to Houston. Read his statement below.
