Hip-Hop Rumors: K. Michelle Addresses Tamar Braxton Beef, ‘I Never Have Come For This Lady’
You already know that K. Michelle and Tamar Braxton have been bickering back and forth via social media for the past few weeks, so it should be no surprise that the passive aggressive feud isn’t quite over yet. Every time these women do interviews, they get asked about the situation and just have to add another two cents and a few more dollars about what should already be squashed.
K. Michelle, who is gearing up for tonight’s Love & Hip-Hop premiere, did an interview with the Skorpion Show via YouTube and got asked the million dollar question about why they’re beefing.
According to Miss “V.S.O.P.” Tamar started it.
“The thing with this situation I have never come for this lady, first ever,” she said. “I’m a newbie. You’ve had five records deals. You’re first album debuted at a 127. There’s no reason that you should be coming for me.”
She added, “Tamar is very quick to go and throw shade at people and go and hide her hands. Excuses for everything. She can go and pick on Nicki [Minaj]. She comes for everybody, but then when you attack her or defend yourself, you’re a bully. Thats not how it goes in America. I don’t need Vince. I’m not scared of nobody. I’mma say what the f-ck I feel..You’re one big joke, its easy for me to tell you about your self.”
K. Michelle took a dig at Tamar’s vocals too:
“Until your get you’re vocal chords in order don’t come for me. Have a seat behind Vince and have keep on spending that money,” she said. “Let me get my sh-t the real way. Out here in the streets, doing what I do hustling.”
Welp…
The full interview is below but she addresses the Tamar drama at 17:09.
At least she sings as good as she beefs.
Waits for Tamar’s clap back in 5, 4, 3…

Popular South African Rapper Mistakenly Shot By Police
(AllHipHop News) Award winning South African Hip Hop artist Khuli Chana was shot by local police in a Johannesburg suburb Monday morning after authorities mistook the performer for a kidnapping suspect. Chana, whose real name is Khulane Morule, stopped at a gas station to fill up his car before traveling to a performance in Pretoria. It just happens that the station he chose to use was the same one selected as the site for a ransom drop off.
Police on the scene were informed to look out for a grey BMW as the kidnapper’s car. Chana was driving a blue BMW at the time. After failing to stop at an unmarked police barricade, the rapper’s vehicle was hit when officers fired six “warning shots.” Chana was struck in the finger and back. The new father is currently recovering at home after being discharged from the hospital.
“The reality of the matter is this is police brutality,” said Refiloe Ramogase, Chana’s manager. “The police need to be more circumspect when they decide to use lethal force.”
The real kidnapper is reportedly in custody and the victim was released. The incident is under investigation by the Independent Police Investigative Directorate.
Chana took home three trophies at the South African Music Awards in May including Album of the Year for Lost in Time. It was the first time a Hip Hop artist won the coveted award in its 19 year history.

The Man Convicted Of Killing MJ, Release From Jail
(AllHipHop News) Conrad Murray has been released from prison after an incarceration period for cause the death of pop star Michael Jackson.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department confirmed to Fox News that the former doctor was released from a Los Angeles jail at 12:01 a.m.
Murray was sentenced to four years, but served less than two years.
He was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in 2011 for the 209 death of Jackson. Murray lost his ability to practice in three states after giving MJ a lethal dose of propofol, which was supposed to help the singer sleep.
A change in California law created the circumstances of Murray’s early release.
EXCLUSIVE: Freeway Ricky Ross Addresses Recent Drug Dealing Rappers Comments & Jay Z’s Barneys Statement
(AllHipHop News) Freeway Ricky Ross’ recent comments about Jay Z’s drug dealing past made headlines as a diss to the legendary emcee’s street credibility, but Ross reached out to AllHipHop to address what he felt many had missed in the message he was trying to convey.
[ALSO READ: Freeway Ricky Ross Details Autobiographical Book With Journalist Cathy Scott]
During a recent interview with The Murder Master Music Show Ross said, “I was just reading on the airplane the other day in Vanity Fair with Jay-Z in it talking about that he sold crack. I was just reading it and it was so corny. These dudes just don’t keep it 100.”
To clarify his point the former head of a $600 million drug empire wrote in a statement:
I feel like my Esquire story starts laying things out more honestly, than the Vanity Fair piece on Jay Z. The game is real, and you’ll lose more than you win. If you sell drugs there is no rap career waiting as an exit strategy, you will either go to jail for a long time or end up dead. The kids deserve to know that, so they realize there’s better options.
Ross also goes on to share his thoughts on Jay’s public statement concerning the Barneys New York racial profiling incidents:
I read the Jay Z comments on Barney’s asking why he’s being judged, you’re being judged because that’s what comes with basing your career off the D Boy game. The game is give and take with those around you. It’s not enough to comment about Barney’s profiling when you sell products to the people possibly targeted. People that look like people you grew up with, and that are in your family. We know the reality of this country in regard to race. You stand up for them immediately when it comes to something as sensitive as racial profiling. You have to have context of American history that this profiling is happening and be honest, and demand the people you partner with to be of the type that treat your people fairly. This is the big problem of the high-end luxury these rappers talk about and have our children hooked on for status. They are not in our interest as a community, and often as seen in the profiling case they look down upon us as customers. As I said in my Hip Hop Can Heal piece on Huffington Post:
“At my height I did not make hundreds of millions to belittle those around me, this is what elitism has driven rap into becoming. A tool to marginalize the have-nots as rappers say what they invented, how they will protect it and how your less than for not being in the same class. The goal cannot be to have large sums of money to marginalize your fans with diamonds they don’t have, clothes they can’t afford or cars they have not seen.”

Kanye West Speaks On Barneys Controversy During Concert (VIDEO)
(AllHipHop News) The ever outspoken Kanye West has weighed in on the recent racial profiling allegations leveled at luxury designer store Barneys New York in his own way. While performing during his Yeezus Tour stop in Las Vegas, Kanye went on one of his infamous rants. This time the Chicago rapper/producer focused his verbal wrath at what he sees as the hypocrisy and racism of the fashion and entertainment industries.
During his speech Kanye referred to the cases of Trayon Christian and Kayla Phillips. The two Barneys customers were stopped by police and accused of using fraudulent credit cards to purchases items from the store. West tied the incidents in with lines from his song “New Slaves”:
That’s that broke n*gga racism. Don’t touch anything in the store. Excuse me that’s that, “can I help you sir?” That’s that racial profiling out in front of Barneys and sh*t. Talking about, “did you steal that?” And it’s that rich n*gga racism, that’s come in… come in Ye please buy more, please buy more… I know you just got some money and can’t wait to spend it n*gga.
Street wear designer Derick Bowers also used “New Slaves” as inspiration to start a petition to get Kanye’s frequent collaborator Jay Z to cut ties with Barneys.
“Just piggy backing off what Kanye [West] said in his song ‘New Slaves.’ Lines in that song were a direct correlation to what’s happening right now,” Bowers told AllHipHop. “Either you’re too broke to go in the store according to them, or if you got money we’re going to use you, and that’s Jay Z. I just hope he sees that.”
Jay Z released a statement addressing calls for him to sever his business relationship with Barneys on his Life + Times website saying he is “waiting on facts and the outcome of a meeting between community leaders and Barneys” to comment on the situation. The Brooklyn legend did receive support from Rev. Al Sharpton who believes the focus needs to be on Barneys first and not Jay Z.

Hip-Hip Rumors: Why Did Wale Delete His Twitter?
Wale has deleted his Twitter again and this time, the rumors have started to run wild. Well, not so wild. Most of the speculation centers around this new song by a former friend of Wale that reveals some of the inner workings of their early relationship. The man’s name is Southeast Slim and he was down with Wale before he took the industry by storm.
Funny thing is, some speculated that Wale deleted his twitter because the Redskins lost today. THEN he was seen in a green and white Eagles jersey!
The Nigerian Super Eagles, that is!

Hip-Hip Rumors: Rihanna Bending Dudes Over?
Sheesh…the internet rumors can be a trip and merciless. Rumor on the block is that Rihanna is taking her freak side to a new level. Oddly, this rumor comes as Rihanna was taking images outside a mosque. There goes that religious revival. The word on the block is that RiRi has adopted a strap-on and has used it on some dude in the fashion industry. I’m not sure if that makes her gay or him or some mutant form of it, but it definitely makes them freaks. At first, it was a rumor that she had done this sort of mess with Chris Brown or Drake, but that notion was quickly dispelled. And, that’s not a rumor I would wish on my favorite enemy. Shout out to Chris Brown. I suspect he’s the dude that Micheal Jackson wanted to be: Bad and Dangerous.

Jay Z Receives Support From Al Sharpton In Barney’s Profiling Case
(AllHipHop News) Jay Z has been catching a heavy dose of heat from those that feel he needs to kill a highly publicized business deal with Barney’s, the high end retail store accused of racial profiling.
However, the rapper mogul received support from Rev. Al Sharpton, who said that Jay’s critics are looking at the wrong target.
“Some people want to make this about Jay-Z,” Sharpton said. “No, this is about Barneys first.”

Sharpton made the comments at the National Action Network offices, according to a report from the New York Post.
The civil rights leader also said that Barney’s better come up with a plan for the alleged racist actions of the New York store. The store profiled and questioned pricey purchases of a pair of African American patrons. A boycott may result if a meeting between NAN and Barney’s doesn’t yield a satisfactory plan.
