Wale is stepping into a new chapter with Def Jam and unpacking four years of emotional weight on his upcoming album Everything Is A Lot, due out November 14.

The 16-track project marks his first full-length release since parting ways with Rick Ross’s Maybach Music Group in 2023.

Wale shared an emotionall video trailer for the album Monday (October 13)

“Ask me what I’ve been feeling lately,” Wale says in the teaser. “Everything.”

“4 years of self reflecting,” he wrote in the caption. “Letting go of what I can’t change. Watching the industry become unrecognizable in real time…. people forgetting about me . Trying to find purpose in a thankless industry . New n##### actin like I’m a new n####. (U lot are crazy for that s### ngl) Changing labels . Changing management . Finding love but scared to scar from it. When panic meets uncertainty under a sensitive microscope….The highs the lows . . The most uncertain moments of my career are ahead of me. Im ready for what ever tho.”

Wale Reflects On Changing Music Industry Landscape

The Grammy-nominated rapper debuted the album’s lead single, “Blanco,” at Dreamville Festival earlier this year.

Other tracks include “Where to Start,” which flips SWV’s 1992 R&B classic “I’m So Into You,” and “Fly Away,” which samples Maxwell’s “Pretty Wings” and dives into themes of loss and emotional detachment.

The album’s title reflects the emotional and mental toll of navigating fame, expectations, and a rapidly shifting music landscape.

“One of the underlying things is how heavy everything is in the world around me, my personal life, and the industry,” Wale told Billboard. “I carried all of that with me and got it out of my system through this project.”

Wale said his main goal was “to express a certain level of vulnerability,” something he’s leaned into more deeply this time around.

The record represents a fresh start for the Washington D.C. native, who has spent over a decade in the spotlight, often balancing commercial success with creative frustration.

“The industry is a completely different place than it was four years ago,” he said. “They had a purge, and a lot of people lost their jobs.”

Wale left Maybach Music Group after a long run that included two No. 1 albums—2013’s “The Gifted” and 2015’s “The Album About Nothing”—and four top 10 projects on the Billboard 200. His departure followed reported friction with Rick Ross and Meek Mill, though Wale hasn’t publicly detailed the split.

“Everything Is A Lot” arrives November 14 via Def Jam.

Killer Mike, J.I.D and Sleepy Brown will celebrate Outkast’s Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction on November 8 in Los Angeles by honoring the duo that helped shape Atlanta’s Hip-Hop identity and global sound.

The three artists—each connected to Outkast’s legacy (some more than others)—will take the stage at the Peacock Theater to induct André 3000 and Big Boi into the Hall’s Class of 2025.

The ceremony will stream live on Disney+ and marks another major recognition for Southern Hip-Hop’s influence on music and culture.

Outkast will become only the 13th Hip-Hop act to enter the Hall of Fame, joining previous inductees like Eminem, JAY-Z, 2Pac, The Notorious B.I.G., Missy Elliott and A Tribe Called Quest.

Sleepy Brown, a longtime collaborator and part of the Organized Noize production team, helped craft the signature sound that launched Outkast into stardom.

He appeared on several of their tracks and was instrumental in shaping the sonic direction of albums like ATLiens and Aquemini.

Killer Mike, who emerged from the Dungeon Family collective, made his mark with standout verses on Stankonia and Speakerboxxx/The Love Below before forming Run The Jewels. His connection to the duo runs deep, both musically and culturally.

J.I.D, one of Atlanta’s newer voices, has consistently credited Outkast as a significant influence. He teamed up with Big Boi on Masego’s “Garden Party” in 2021 and has hinted at a possible André 3000 flute feature on his upcoming deluxe project God Does Like Ugly.

Outkast’s journey began in 1992, when André and Big Boi met as teenagers at Lenox Square shopping mall in Atlanta.

Over the next two decades, they sold more than 25 million records worldwide and helped push Southern rap into the mainstream. Their genre-bending approach and bold visuals challenged the norms of Hip-Hop at a time when the East and West Coasts dominated the charts.

Their influence extended beyond music. From fashion to film and cultural commentary, Outkast helped redefine what Southern creativity could look like on a national stage.

Their 2003 double album Speakerboxxx/The Love Below won Album of the Year at the Grammys, a rare feat for a rap act.

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s Class of 2025 also includes The White Stripes, Cyndi Lauper, Soundgarden, Joe Cocker, Chubby Checker and Bad Company.

Snoop Dogg Moved To Tears On “The Voice” Stage In Dramatic Battle Round

By: London Jennn Updated Category: News

Snoop Dogg was brought to tears during his first Battle Round of Season 28 on NBC’s “The Voice” after a stirring duet left him emotionally overwhelmed.

The Hip-Hop icon and second-time coach watched as his team members Yoshihanaa and Natalia Albertini delivered a soulful take on Carole King’s classic “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” a song immortalized by Aretha Franklin.

The contestants, who were allowed to choose their own partners this season, turned the stage into a masterclass in vocal chemistry.

The performance hit Snoop Dogg hard.

“Y’all made me shed a tear,” he told the singers. “Lizzo gave you so much information, and y’all used it. I was crying because I can only keep one of y’all, and my heart is broke.”

The other coaches were just as moved. Niall Horan summed it up simply: “That’s why we watch the show.” Reba McEntire leaned toward Yoshihanaa for her vocal range, while Michael Bublé praised Natalia’s tone and control.

Faced with a tough decision, Snoop named Yoshihanaa the winner of the battle, citing her growth and stage presence.

But as Natalia prepared to exit, he hit his save button, refusing to let her walk away.

“That performance was so strong, so heartfelt,” he said. “She was too good to be on somebody else’s team and too good to go home.”

This is Snoop Dogg’s second season in the coach’s chair on “The Voice”. He previously guided Jeremy Beloate to the finale, where he placed fifth.

Before joining as a full-time coach, Snoop served as a Key Advisor in Season 20.

Season 28 of “The Voice” airs Mondays and Tuesdays on NBC.

NLE Choppa Fires Back At Jonathan Majors Over Viral Bible Clash

By: London Jennn Updated Category: News

NLE Choppa fired back at Jonathan Majors Monday after a tense moment from Kirk Franklin’s “Den of Kings” podcast exploded across social media, showing the rapper’s spiritual stance being questioned by the actor.

The 22-year-old Memphis artist responded with a pointed Instagram post captioned “READ IT AGAIN,” featuring Bible verse screenshots, a photo of him in prayer, and a behind-the-scenes image alongside Majors.

The viral moment unfolded during a discussion on Christianity, when Choppa shared his discomfort with how Jesus is worshipped more than God in some Christian spaces.

“One of the things I have a problem with, and it may be controversial,” Choppa said. “In Christianity, it’s a thing where people praise the Son more than they praise the Father. And that’s what I don’t like.”

He expanded on his view by pointing to scripture that says humans are made in God’s image.

“Because if we are man made in the likeness, Jesus is our brother,” he said. “Why would I drop down and praise my brother instead of praising my father?”

Majors cut him off and directly challenged Choppa’s interpretation.

“Have you read the Bible?” Majors asked.

“I read the Bible, I listen to the Bible—” Choppa began before Majors cut him off.

“I would say, read it again,” Majors said.

Choppa’s spiritual path has taken several turns. In November 2023, he was seen in Dubai participating in Islamic practices, sparking speculation about a conversion to Islam.

He’s also released Christian-themed music and often discusses spirituality in interviews.

Donald Trump Mixes Politics With Hip-Hop—Gets Everyone Talking

Donald Trump’s Remix Video Goes Viral

Donald Trump dropped a political remix that collided Hip-Hop and Capitol Hill, and the internet didn’t know what to do with it. The former president shared a video on Truth Social featuring his border security remarks laid over the instrumental from Dr. Dre’s “The Next Episode.” The mashup quickly gained traction online, drawing reactions ranging from amused to baffled.

In the clip, Trump declares, “The media and our friends in the Democrat Party kept saying we needed new legislation… we must have legislation to secure the border. But it turned out that all we really needed was a new president.” As the applause kicks in, so does the iconic beat produced by Dr. Dre and originally featuring Snoop Dogg.

Hip-Hop Meets Politics

The track, which has amassed over 1.2 billion streams on Spotify, served as the backdrop to Trump’s critique of immigration policy. The video’s production mimicked the energy of a campaign rally crossed with a mixtape drop, complete with a cheering crowd and dramatic music cues.

Online reactions were mixed. Some users laughed at the absurdity, others questioned the legality of using the beat without permission, and a few called the move “kinda genius.” Regardless of opinion, the clip achieved its goal—viral attention.

Social Media Strategy Behind the Scenes

This isn’t Trump’s first time using short-form video to drive engagement. His campaign has leaned into TikTok-style content to connect with younger voters and bypass traditional media. A Bloomberg report detailed how these clips are a core part of his digital strategy heading into the 2024 election.

Trump has also made efforts to align with Hip-Hop culture, inviting performers to energize his rallies and referencing rap music in his messaging. The remix video fits into that broader approach—blending pop culture with political messaging to keep his name circulating online.

Viral Politics in the 2024 Campaign

As the 2024 election cycle intensifies, Trump’s team continues to prioritize content that resonates on social platforms. The remix wasn’t just a one-off stunt—it’s part of a calculated effort to dominate timelines and shape conversations.

The video was posted to Truth Social earlier this week and has since been shared widely across other platforms, continuing to draw attention as the campaign season heats up.

Diddy Ordered To Handover Dirty Videos & Cash To Feds

By: Mike Winslow Updated Category: Newsbreak

Diddy handed over a collection of tapes and digital devices to federal authorities in New York as part of his sentence in a federal sex trafficking case, according to court filings.

The materials, which include a set labeled “Ibiza Tapes,” were seized during March 2024 raids on Combs’ properties and are now in the custody of U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The list of items includes hard drives, USB sticks, iPads, iPhones and several laptops. Federal agents also recovered $9,000 in cash from Combs’ suite at the Park Hyatt hotel in Manhattan, where he had been staying before his September 2024 arrest.

Prosecutors allege the seized materials were “property used or intended to be used” in relation to the prostitution charges that led to Combs’ conviction in July. The “Ibiza Tapes,” filmed on a Sony DVCAM in 1996, are believed to be part of a broader scheme in which Combs recruited male escorts for private sex parties he called “freak-offs.”

Witnesses testified that Combs, 55, often observed and recorded the encounters without participating. The parties allegedly involved drugs and were held in various locations, including during his trips to Ibiza, Spain—a destination known for its nightlife and where Combs performed in 2010 alongside then-girlfriend Cassie Ventura.

Testimony from Cassie Ventura and Another Woman

Ventura and another woman testified that Combs used threats of leaking sex tapes to pressure them into taking part in acts with male escorts. Both women said they feared retaliation if they refused.

The two-month trial ended with a partial verdict. Jurors acquitted Combs on coercion charges but found him guilty on several other counts connected to the prostitution scheme. His attorneys argued that the relationships were consensual but acknowledged they were abusive.

U.S. District Judge Arun Subramanian sentenced Combs to approximately four years in prison, significantly less than the 11 years prosecutors requested and below the sentencing guidelines of six to seven years.

During the proceedings, Combs attempted to dismiss the case by calling himself an “amateur p### director” and claimed his recordings were protected under the First Amendment. The court rejected that argument.

He is currently preparing to appeal the conviction to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. The Bad Boy Records founder has faced a growing number of legal challenges in recent years, including civil lawsuits accusing him of sexual misconduct.

Mario Curses Out Cameraman Mid-Song In Viral Onstage Rant

Mario halted his set at The Big Fresno Fair over the weekend and unleashed a profanity-laced demand at a cameraman mid-performance, igniting a wave of criticism online.

While singing his 2007 hit “Crying Out For Me,” the R&B singer suddenly locked eyes with a camera operator on stage and shouted, “Ay, you gotta get the f### off the stage.”

The moment, caught on video, quickly spread across social media platforms.

The cameraman, later identified as Ryan Hudgins, began stepping back but didn’t move fast enough for Mario’s liking.

The singer repeated the command, more forcefully, before Hudgins finally exited the stage.

The clip has since gone viral, with many viewers calling out Mario’s tone and timing, especially given the modest crowd size at the outdoor fair.

One user wrote, “Acting this high and mighty while performing at a shopping center parking lot is wild.” Another added, “bro only had 30 people watching him…well 29 now.”

Despite the onstage tension, Hudgins later posted a recap of his night on Instagram, writing, “How the night ended in comparison to how it began.” He thanked the promoter and praised the artists and their crews, noting, “Even @marioworldwide team and security were respectful.”

That remark suggests the issue may have been isolated to Mario himself, not his staff. Hudgins didn’t appear to hold a grudge, but the internet wasn’t as forgiving.

As of now, Mario hasn’t addressed the situation publicly.

Birthday Reflections and a Spiritual Reset

Cardi B celebrated her 32nd birthday in Los Angeles by sharing a deeply personal message about faith, growth and gratitude after a turbulent year. The Bronx rapper used the milestone to reflect on her spiritual journey and announce that she’s entering what she calls her “Jesus year.”

In an Instagram post to her 169 million followers, Cardi wrote, “I must say I never felt so covered and so protected by the man above himself. He never fails to remind me that I’m chosen and that I’m anointed, and that’s the best gift I could ever ask for.”

A Glamorous Night With a Deeper Meaning

Wearing a black cutout gown with matching gloves and heels, the Grammy-winning artist posed for a series of birthday photos that blended style with symbolism. But the night wasn’t just about fashion—it marked a turning point in her mindset.

“Everyone normally makes their New Year’s resolution on Jan 1st, but I made mine last night! Year 32 was a year I’ll never forget!” she wrote. “Thank you all for supporting me and loving me! I love yall back!”

Renewed Faith and a Growing Family

The “Bodak Yellow” rapper is also preparing for a new chapter in her personal life. She is expecting a child with Stefon Diggs, wide receiver for the Buffalo Bills. She already shares three children with Offset, her former partner and fellow Hip-Hop artist.

Looking Ahead to Year 33

Cardi’s birthday post signaled a fresh start as she balances motherhood, music and her evolving faith. With a new baby on the way and a renewed sense of direction, she’s stepping into her 33rd year with clarity and conviction.

Wendy Williams Slams Her $25K Living Facility As A “Dump”

By: Mike Winslow Updated Category: Newsbreak

Wendy Williams Criticized Her Assisted Living Facility

Wendy Williams didn’t hold back when describing her current living situation at Coterie Hudson Yards in Manhattan, calling the $25,800-per-month assisted living facility a “dump” in a phone interview with The Cut. The former daytime TV personality, 60, currently resides on the memory care floor of the upscale residence, which she says feels more like confinement than comfort.

“Did you see the people? The elderly people? Why do I want to look at that? This is a f—-d-up situation,” Williams said. “I can’t tell you how many times I’ve asked that I be moved from this floor.”

Despite the facility’s marble floors, fresh flowers, crystal chandeliers and private amenities, Williams said she’s unhappy and wants out.

Locked In and Cut Off

Williams has lived under court-appointed guardianship since 2022. Her current floor is secured, meaning she can’t leave without approval from both the facility and her guardian. She also has no access to a personal cell phone and can only make outbound calls from a landline.

After reportedly drinking heavily at the building’s penthouse restaurant during her birthday in July, Williams was relocated from a third-floor unit with large windows to the locked memory care floor. The new area lacks stoves, refrigerators and door locks for safety reasons. According to The Cut, the hallway smells like Febreze.

Health Diagnosis Disputed

In February, Williams’ team announced she had been diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia and progressive aphasia. But she has denied the diagnosis and insists she remains mentally sharp.

Her attorney, Joe Tacopina, told TMZ, “She’s the same Wendy Williams that you know from TV. She’s a person who’s in control of her faculties and is a great human being.”

Tacopina strongly criticized the guardianship system, calling it “basically, incarceration.” He added, “This whole thing is about money, money, money, money,” and said the process was “despicably slow.”

Documents show Williams’ estate pays for her guardian Sabrina Morrissey’s services, a $10,000 monthly retainer for her personal lawyer and various legal fees. In 2024, attorneys raised concerns about her finances after Morrissey sold her 2,400-square-foot condo at a loss and gave away her two cats.

Her ex-husband, Kevin Hunter, filed a $250 million lawsuit in June to end the guardianship, calling it “fraudulent bondage.” He also accused the presiding judge of being “crooked.” Hunter, who previously received $37,500 per month in alimony, saw those payments stop when the guardianship began. A judge dismissed his case on October 9, but he has the option to refile.

Williams and Hunter divorced in 2019 after she discovered he had a child with another woman during their 21-year marriage.

Public Appearances and Support

Despite her restricted living conditions, Williams has made a few appearances in public. She attended New York Fashion Week in September and told The Cut, “You know I’ve been out. So obviously I do go out.” She also attends a Brooklyn megachurch, which she said “gives me faith and keeps me very well in touch with God and myself.”

Her longtime friend Max Tucci, owner of the Manhattan restaurant Tucci, supported her claims about the facility. “This is, like, where billionaires send their grandmothers. But, you know, she doesn’t need it. Wendy doesn’t lie,” he said.

Son Speaks Out

Williams’ 25-year-old son, Kevin Hunter Jr., told The Cut he’s trying to stay out of the legal mess while focusing on his own life. “I’m really not trying to be too caught up in this. I’m trying to build, carve out my own path right now, away from everything. I just want her to get out of this. Because it’s not right,” he said.

Medical Review Pending

A new medical evaluation is expected in the coming weeks. Based on the findings, the judge could either maintain the current guardianship, ease restrictions, appoint a different guardian or end the arrangement altogether. However, sources close to the case say a full termination remains unlikely.

New Bad Bunny Controversy Over “God Bless America” Has MAGA Seeing Red

Bad Bunny Remained Seated During Patriotic Song at Yankee Stadium

Bad Bunny stayed seated during “God Bless America” at Yankee Stadium on October 10, drawing political attention just months before his scheduled Super Bowl halftime performance.

The Puerto Rican rapper and global chart-topper was spotted during the Yankees’ home playoff game against the Toronto Blue Jays by baseball superfan Laurence Leavy, known as “Marlins Man.” Leavy, seated two spots away, posted about the moment on social media.

“Yes, Bad Bunny was sitting and did not stand during God Bless America,” Leavy wrote. “I don’t agree but it’s his right AS AN AMERICAN to so choose.”

Manager Declined Request to Stand

According to Leavy, he approached the artist’s team during the game and asked if Bad Bunny would consider standing. The manager declined, citing political reasons.

“Mad at Trump for saying he’s is Latin and not an American. He thinks Trump doesn’t know Puerto Rico is in USA,” Leavy posted, recounting the exchange.

Despite the disagreement, Leavy described the reggaeton star as respectful. “He is super nice and humble,” he added. “Wish him the best.”

Trump Criticized Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Role

The moment at Yankee Stadium comes as Bad Bunny faces criticism over his upcoming Super Bowl halftime show. Former President Donald Trump commented on the booking during a Newsmax interview, saying, “I never heard of him, I don’t know who he is, I don’t know why they’re doing it.”

The 31-year-old artist has been vocal about his political views and has previously altered his tour plans over concerns related to immigration enforcement. In an interview with Variety, he explained why he skipped U.S. cities during his tour.

“There was the issue of — like, f****** ICE could be outside (my concert),” he said. “And it’s something that we were talking about and very concerned about.”

He suggested that people could travel to Puerto Rico or other countries to attend his shows.

Conservative Group Plans Alternative Halftime Show

The Super Bowl controversy has prompted a response from conservative organization Turning Point USA. The group announced it will host an “All American Halftime Show” during the NFL championship broadcast, promoting “faith, family and freedom” as a counter-program to Bad Bunny’s performance.

Bad Bunny addressed the backlash during a recent Saturday Night Live appearance, saying he was “very excited” about the upcoming show.

His decision not to stand during “God Bless America” adds to his ongoing efforts to highlight Puerto Rican identity and issues affecting the Latino community.

The Yankees hosted the Blue Jays at Yankee Stadium on October 10.

Man Tries To Put Out Martin Luther King’s Eternal Flame By Taking A Leak On It, Sent To Jail

By: Nolan Strong Updated Category: News

A man in Atlanta tried to extinguish Martin Luther King Jr.’s Eternal Flame by urinating on it at the King Center in Atlanta and now faces a stack of criminal charges.

Officers arrested 26-year-old Brent Jones at 4:30 A.M. Saturday after responding to a trespassing call at the historic site on Auburn Avenue. Police say they found Jones urinating in the reflecting pool near the tomb of Dr. King and Coretta Scott King.

According to arrest warrants, Jones caused nearly $3,000 in damage. He “began damaging the property further” when asked to leave “by urinating into the reflection pool at The King Center, where Dr. Martin Luther King and Ms. Coretta Scott King were laid to rest.”

Authorities say Jones didn’t stop there. He “also damaged the eternal flame at the location that is a memorial site for Dr. King Jr.” by urinating on it “to put it out.” Officers added that he was “stomping on the Eternal Flame, causing significant damage.”

The flame, which burns continuously, represents Dr. King’s vision of peace and equality. As described on the King Center’s website, it “symbolizes the continuing effort to realize Dr. King’s dream of the ‘Beloved Community.’”

The arrest report says Jones climbed into the flame’s pot and “stood in the pot damaging it” after ignoring orders to leave the restricted area. He also “proceeded to scatter the documents that were on the memorial podium for Dr. King Jr.”

Security tried to intervene, but Jones began attempting to fight the on-site guard. Once in handcuffs, he managed to slip out of his restraints and resisted officers during the arrest.

While in custody at the precinct, Jones allegedly “attempted to expose himself and urinate” again, leading to an additional public indecency charge.

He now faces charges including second-degree criminal damage to property, criminal trespass, public indecency and obstruction of law enforcement. He was booked into Fulton County Jail.

The King Center later described the incident as “minor,” without offering further comment on repairs or security changes.

This act follows another troubling incident in 2023 when a woman was arrested for allegedly trying to set fire to Dr. King’s birth home.

The King Center, a national landmark, draws thousands of visitors each year who come to honor the legacy of the civil rights icon and his wife.

Eminem’s daughter Alaina Scott revealed she is expecting her first child with husband Matt Moeller, making the rap star a grandfather for the second time and expanding his growing family.

Scott shared the announcement on Sunday on Instagram, posting a series of images that included a “Baby Moeller” onesie and a surprise reveal at their under-construction home.

One photo showed Scott leading Moeller, blindfolded, into a room filled with gold “Baby M” balloons. Inside, she presented him with baby sneakers and a positive pregnancy test.

“For months, I’ve carried a tiny heartbeat inside me, one that has already changed mine in every possible way,” Scott wrote in her caption. “There’s something indescribable about knowing there’s a little life growing, dreaming, and becoming, all while you go about your day, whispering prayers and hopes only they can hear. I’ve never felt more grateful for this gift and to grow our family, something we’ve wanted for so long. Thank you God for this blessing. Baby M, we can’t wait to meet you, little one.”

A post shared by Alaina Marie (@alainamariescott)

Her sister Hailie Jade Scott quickly commented on the post, writing, “Sooo happy for you guys. Can’t wait to be this little one’s auntie & elliot is so excited to meet his cousin.”

The news comes just months after Hailie Jade welcomed her first child with husband Evan McClintock. Their son, Elliot Marshall McClintock, was born on March 14, 2025. His middle name pays tribute to his grandfather, whose full name is Marshall Mathers.

Alaina is the biological daughter of Dawn Scott, the twin sister of Eminem’s ex-wife, Kim Scott. Eminem adopted Alaina in the early 2000s after Dawn struggled with drug addiction. Dawn died in 2016 from a suspected overdose.

Eminem has often referred to Alaina as “Lainey” in his lyrics and has spoken publicly about raising her alongside his biological daughter Hailie and adopted child Stevie Laine.

In June 2023, Alaina married Moeller in a lavish ceremony that included an 80-foot aisle lined with thousands of white roses. Eminem walked her down the aisle during the flapper-themed celebration.

Eminem has consistently emphasized the importance of his children in interviews and songs. He has credited them as a major influence on his sobriety and career focus.

Both Alaina and Hailie Jade have kept relatively low profiles, occasionally sharing updates on social media but largely avoiding the spotlight that comes with their father’s fame.

Man Sentenced To Prison After Dangerous Nail Attacks On Trump Voters

Bucks County Man Jailed for Politically Charged Harassment Campaign

Alaric Dalberg received a jail sentence in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, after admitting to a months-long campaign of harassment aimed at supporters of former President Donald Trump. The 64-year-old Yardley resident pleaded guilty to stalking, harassment, criminal mischief and disorderly conduct, and was sentenced Tuesday to serve between two and 23 months in the Bucks County Correctional Facility.

Dalberg’s sentence, handed down by Common Pleas Judge Wallace H. Bateman Jr., also includes 36 months of probation, a $1,000 fine, 100 hours of community service unrelated to politics and restitution to victims.

Nails in Driveways and Surveillance Footage

Between October 2024 and February 2025, Dalberg repeatedly targeted homes in Lower Makefield Township that displayed pro-Trump signs. He scattered nails and screws in driveways and, in one case, stalked a grocery store employee after a political argument.

Investigators used surveillance video and physical evidence to link Dalberg to the incidents. Police found a stash of nails in his vehicle. During questioning, Dalberg admitted to collecting the nails to target what he referred to as “Trumpers.”

Victims Describe Fear and Damage

One of the victims, Lisa Mason, said a mechanic warned her that a nail found in her tire could have caused a blowout on the highway. “It’s really sad that you have to wake up in the morning with a flashlight and look for nails and screws,” Mason told NBC10 Philadelphia.

Another victim, Sandra Liberato, said Dalberg followed her from her home to her workplace. Surveillance footage later captured him throwing debris near her car. Investigators matched his grocery store loyalty card to the time of the incident.

Liberato helped prosecutors build their case by collecting and labeling the nails and screws she discovered near her property.

Judge and Prosecutors Condemn the Behavior

Judge Bateman called Dalberg’s actions intentional and dangerous. “It was not an aberration,” he said. “Just because you disagree with their political views or personal views, do you decide to victimize them? It’s completely, unequivocally unacceptable to me.”

Bucks County District Attorney Jennifer Schorn also issued a statement condemning the politically motivated behavior. “People who think they are justified in engaging in criminal activity because the ends justify the means will have a dose of reality if they choose to engage in crimes in Bucks County,” she said. “It is plain and simple, we will not tolerate politically motivated violence or threats of violence, ever.”

Additional Penalties and Restrictions

Dalberg is prohibited from contacting the grocery store employee he targeted. His sentence also requires him to reimburse victims for any damage caused by his actions.

Dalberg waived his preliminary hearing and proceeded directly to Common Pleas Court. His sentencing comes amid a rise in politically motivated crimes following the 2024 presidential election.

He was sentenced on Tuesday.

Busta Rhymes Denies Assaulting Ex-Assistant Or Making Employee Unclog Toilet With Hand In Defamation Countersuit

By: Nolan Strong Updated Category: Exclusives
Preferred Source Publisher Button>

Busta Rhymes has formally denied accusations of assault and workplace abuse made by a former assistant, calling the claims false and retaliatory in a newly filed defamation countersuit.

In a response filed today (October 13) in Brooklyn federal court, the Hip-Hop icon and his company, Starbus LLC, rejected all key allegations made by Dashiel Gables, a former assistant who sued earlier this year.

Gables claimed he was physically attacked, underpaid, and blacklisted after working for the rapper between July 2024 and January 2025.

Busta’s legal team acknowledged Gables’ employment and $1,500-per-week salary but denied any wrongdoing. The filing disputes Gables’ claim that Busta Rhymes punched him in a Brooklyn lobby in January 2025, stating the two were present but that the alleged assault never occurred.

Following the incident, Gables said he sought medical treatment for facial injuries and filed a police report. Busta Rhymes later turned himself in and was charged with third-degree assault.

Gables’ lawsuit seeks $6 to $7 million in damages for unpaid wages, emotional distress, and physical harm.

The response also challenges Gables’ claims of wage theft, arguing he was not legally classified as an employee and was paid appropriately under the law.

Busta’s attorneys filed a countersuit for defamation, accusing Gables of deliberately spreading false and damaging claims to media outlets and at a public press conference.

Gables described a hostile work environment that included verbal insults, physical intimidation, and degrading tasks unrelated to job duties.

Among the most disturbing claims is an incident where another assistant was allegedly forced to unclog a toilet with his bare hand after the rapper said it wasn’t cleaned properly – allegations the rapper flatly denies.

“The foregoing statements are statements of purported fact, not opinion or protected rhetorical hyperbole, and they are false. [Busta Rhymes] did not assault or batter Gables, did not ‘routinely assault’ or spit on employees, did not make the alleged threats, and did not commit the other wrongful acts asserted as facts by Gables,” Busta Rhymes’ attorney J. Patrick Butler wrote in the filing.

The countersuit argues that Gables’ statements were made with “actual malice” and have caused serious harm to the rap star’s reputation and business opportunities.

“At the time he made or caused the Publications, Gables knew the statements were false, or acted with reckless disregard for the truth, including by fabricating allegations of criminal conduct and violence, omitting exculpatory facts, and deliberately ignoring contrary evidence.

Busta Rhymes is seeking compensatory and punitive damages, reimbursement of legal fees, and a court-ordered retraction of the statements.

EXCLUSIVE: Rod Wave Alleges Bribes, Botched Shows & Breaches In Blistering Reply In Fight Over $27M

Rod Wave is pushing back hard in court, accusing concert promoter Grizzly Touring of bribery, mismanagement and contract violations in a heated dispute over $27 million tied to his 2024 “Last Lap” arena tour.

The Florida rapper filed a scathing legal response denying all liability and claiming Grizzly breached their agreement first. He alleges the promoter tried to coerce him into what he called “indentured servitude” through secret contract terms and failed tour logistics.

“Following a failed attempt by Grizzly’s parent company at bribing Rod Wave’s former agent with under-the-table payments to gain the exclusive right to Rod Wave’s next five tours, Grizzly’s lawsuit represents an improper effort to force Rod Wave to specifically perform a personal services contract for Grizzly against his will,” Rod Wave’s lawyer James G. Sammataro snarled.

At the center of the clash is a failed tour deal that Grizzly says left them holding the bag after Rod Wave canceled nine of 35 scheduled shows.

The promoter claims it advanced over $57 million to cover performance fees and production costs, only for the rapper to abandon nearly a third of the tour.

Grizzly asserts it guaranteed Rod Wave $40.25 million for the full tour and that he used a portion of the funds to purchase luxury properties and charter private flights.

The company is seeking damages, lost profits and a court order to block him from promoting future tours independently.

The promoter also accuses Rod Wave of violating an exclusivity clause by announcing new solo shows through his own company, Hit House Entertainment. Grizzly argues this move directly breached their agreement and undermined the tour.

Rod Wave’s legal team paints a different picture.

In his response, he claims Grizzly and its production partner, 360 Production, rescheduled shows without his approval, causing logistical chaos and damaging his brand. He says those decisions—not his actions—led to the tour’s collapse.

He also disputes the $27 million figure, arguing it’s inflated and not supported by the terms of their contract. According to his filing, he already earned nearly $30 million from the shows he completed and has no legal duty to return any unused advances.

Rod Wave further argues that the exclusivity and “right of first refusal” clauses are unenforceable under Florida law, especially since Grizzly allegedly failed to uphold its end of the deal.

The most serious allegation in his filing involves an alleged bribery attempt. Rod Wave claims Grizzly tried to insert unauthorized contract terms by offering his agent secret payments.

He says the maneuver failed, and the lawsuit is a retaliatory effort to trap him in a one-sided business arrangement.

He and Hit House Entertainment are now seeking to void the entire agreement and block any future obligations tied to the failed tour.

Angel Reese will make history on October 15 in New York City as the first professional athlete to walk the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show runway. The Chicago Sky forward announced her upcoming appearance in a post on Instagram, writing, “Stepping into a dream: From Angel to a Victoria Secret ANGEL. I’m finally getting my wings I’ll be walking the Victoria’s Secret 2025 runway show for the first time, and it feels like destiny.”

Victoria’s Secret confirmed her participation with a statement of their own: “Angel Reese, welcome to the runway. The first professional athlete angel…major is an understatement.”

Reese joins a star-studded lineup that includes performances by Missy Elliott, Madison Beer, KAROL G and TWICE. She will also wear the brand’s iconic feathered wings, typically reserved for the company’s most recognizable models.

Reese’s Athletic Resume Adds to Her Cultural Impact

At 23, Reese has already built a standout résumé in the WNBA. During her rookie season, she became the fastest player in league history to reach 500 points and 500 rebounds. She averaged 13.6 points and 13.1 rebounds across 34 games and earned a spot on the WNBA All-Rookie Team.

She also became the first rookie in Sky history to post double-digit scoring in her first five games and was named the team’s 2024 Player of the Year.

Her presence in the fashion show signals a broader shift in how athletes—especially women—are shaping pop culture. Reese’s influence stretches beyond basketball, with a growing social media following and a strong endorsement portfolio.

Rapper Armani White Busted For Dancing In The Middle Of I-75 In Kentucky

Rapper Armani White was arrested in Kentucky after police say the chart-topping rapper shut down part of Interstate 75 to film a music video in the middle of traffic.

Officers from the London Police Department responded to a series of 911 calls reporting that White was seen climbing onto the concrete median of I-75 and dancing while his crew recorded the scene.

The Philadelphia artist was taken into custody Sunday night in Laurel County and charged with second-degree disorderly conduct and illegally stopping on a limited access highway, according to police records.

He was booked at the Laurel County Correctional Center and later released. The incident occurred while the 26-year-old was on the road supporting T-Pain’s current tour.

White shot to stardom in 2022 with the viral hit “Billie Eilish,” a track that flipped N.O.R.E.’s 2002 classic “Nothin” into a social media juggernaut. A 16-second teaser clip posted to Instagram and TikTok in February 2022 helped launch the song into global popularity.

The track exploded across platforms, racking up over 60 million streams and generating more than 41 billion views on TikTok. That momentum led to a record deal with Def Jam in July 2022.

In August 2023, Billie Eilish herself acknowledged the viral tribute by inviting White on stage during one of her shows.

South London Rapper Giggs Brings Out JME During NFL London Series

Giggs brought a heavy dose of South London grit to the NFL’s London Series on Sunday (October 12), performing at halftime of the New York Jets and Denver Broncos game held at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The Denver Broncos edged out the Jets 13-11, but it was the South London MC who stole the spotlight.

The halftime show hit its peak when Giggs surprised the crowd by bringing out JME, who delivered his hit track “Man Don’t Care” to a roaring crowd.

“It’s a huge moment to be a part of the London Games,” Giggs said. “I’ve been on a journey with my music, and to get to share that with my city and the NFL fans is something I’m really proud of.”

Known for his deep voice and raw delivery, Giggs has been a fixture in UK Hip-Hop since his 2007 breakout with “Talkin’ da Hardest.” That track still resonates today—Cleveland Browns players were recently caught vibing to it in the locker room.

The NFL has leaned into music to boost its global appeal, using halftime performances to connect with local audiences.

Just one day before the Jets-Broncos game, the NFL hosted its Creator Flag Football Game at Copper Box Arena. Gunna and British rapper Aitch served as celebrity captains, leading teams stacked with NFL legends, influencers and entertainers.

The NFL’s London Series this year includes three regular-season games: Vikings vs Browns on October 5, Jets vs Broncos on October 12 and Rams vs Jaguars at Wembley Stadium on October 19.

Last week, British singer Raye performed during halftime, continuing the league’s push to localize entertainment for international audiences.

Donald Trump Decides He Probably Isn’t “Heaven-Bound” During Flight To Israel

Donald Trump shared a moment of reflection aboard Air Force One en route to Israel Sunday night (October 12), admitting he may not be destined for heaven despite his recent diplomatic efforts.

“I’m being a little cute,” Trump told reporters during the flight, adding, “I don’t think there’s anything going to get me in heaven. I really don’t. I think I’m not maybe heaven-bound.”

Trump was responding to a question about whether his involvement in brokering a ceasefire deal and facilitating a major hostage release might improve his spiritual résumé.

“I may be in heaven right now as we fly on Air Force One,” Trump added. “I’m not sure I’m going to be able to make heaven, but I’ve made life a lot better for a lot of people.”

Trump’s remarks came just ahead of his arrival in Israel on Monday (October 13), where he marked the release of 20 Israeli hostages from Gaza.

The agreement, which ended over two years of captivity, also included the return of the bodies of deceased captives. In exchange, Israel agreed to release approximately 1,700 Palestinian prisoners.

Trump’s comments marked a noticeable shift from his earlier tone during an August interview with Fox & Friends, where he said, “If I can save 7,000 people a week from being killed, I think that’s pretty… I want to try to get to heaven if possible.”

He also acknowledged his spiritual standing during that same interview, saying, “I’m hearing that I’m not doing well. I am really at the bottom of the totem pole. But if I can get to heaven, this will be one of the reasons.”

The trip to Israel follows a fragile ceasefire in the region and a rare moment of international cooperation.
