Tory Lanez & August Alsina Assault Footage Surfaces

A video leaked after August Alsina’s verbal confirmation about him and Tory Lanez’s altercation. According to the footage, the two musicians got into it after Alsina ignored Lanez’s handshake. Following Lanez’s shocked reaction, the “Say It” rapper and his entourage ambushed him.

Although there’s no footage of the exact interaction, bystanders got clips of what happened before and after this verbal (and allegedly physical) incident. Someone is also trying to remind Lanez about his current troubles with the law. “Nooo,” they say while another person says, “Don’t do it. You already shot Megan.”

After the alleged fight, a person asked, “You knocked his ass out, Tory?” to which someone else said, “Tory says he just knocked August Alsina’s ass right out. One punch crushed him.”

The Past Altercations Between Tory & August

In the past, Lanez and Alsina have gotten into a heated conversation. The “Entanglement” singer felt a way after hearing Tory’s comments on his relationship with Jada Pinkett Smith. Angered about what was said, Alsina confronts Lanez, saying, “What up? I hate when n-ggas don’t keep the same energy with me.”

Tory, who seemingly sounded confused, replies, “What energy?” Then, August says, “Why did you speak on my business online?” Lanez says, “Hold on, hold on,” before the audio cuts out. Sources also say that Tory reportedly smoked “a blunt laced with cocaine” and punched Alsina before hiding behind his security. 

Alsina alleges that this physical altercation has left him with several injuries. According to photos he posted online, he had bruises on his elbow, lip, and knee. 

Tory has denied these statements. On Sunday, he hopped on the phone with Akademiks and said

“Nothing happened. I don’t even know what this kid is talking about.”

He also claimed through his Instagram Story that he’s been working, shying away, and staying out of trouble.

“I don’t know what everybody is talking about…But I’ve been in the studio. I’m not in anything negative…I’ve been working on myself,” Tory Lanez wrote, adding several smiling faces with halo emojis.

All this hostility likely comes from a line Lanez used in a short video regarding August Alsina and Jada Pinkett Smith’s situation. With Lil Baby’s “We Paid (feat. 42 Dugg)” instrumental in the background, Tory spat at the time: 

“Let me start fucking on Jada; I ain’t gon’ snitch like August.”

Tiffany Haddish Settles Out Of Court

Earlier this month, Tiffany Haddish and Aries Spears found themselves being sued by a John and Jane Doe. According to the suit, it seems the two actors/comedians are being accused of trying to sexually groom a pair of minors, an incident that occurred some years ago but is now just coming to light. As it stands, the case is being settled out of court, so we may never know the full story.

New Details Emerge

From what we do know, according to the siblings, Haddish was friends with their mother. Haddish would tell their mother that she was taking the kids to auditions, but was actually filming sexually inappropriate skits. One of those skits has finally been unearthed, and doesn’t paint a good picture for actors. The title of the skit is “Through a Pedophiles Eyes” which featured John. In the skit, the child’s mom dropped him off with a pedophilic Spears. The skit then has the child not being fully clothed while Spears lusted over him.

According to Tiffany Haddish’s attorney, the victims’ mother has been trying to “assert these bogus claims” for years. Jane Doe was the one that had filed for this current lawsuit due to her now being of legal age.

There were conditions to the settlement that John and Jane Doe had to establish. The first was that it was to happen in Las Vegas and that travel expenses would be paid for. They also want her to publicly apologize for her role in the known skit and to recant her allegation that the suit was a shakedown.

Haddish has said that the skit was intended to be funny, but was not. She says that she regrets agreeing to participate in it. However, she has not yet recanted her allegation.

We will provide more information to this case as it develops.

D12’s Bizarre Claims The Game’s Eminem Diss Was Ghostwritten

Earlier this year, The Game started a one-sided beef with Eminem. However, The Game has finally caught someone’s attention — just not the attention of the person he hoped. Former member of Detroit rap group D12, Bizarre, claims another rapper penned The Game’s Eminem diss. He claims the song, “The Black Slim Shady,” was ghostwritten by his former labelmate, rapper Stat Quo. During an interview on The Bootleg Kev Podcast, Bizarre shared his thoughts on the song.

I just feel like I couldn’t get past the Eminem voice. I know Game can rap better than that. I know he’s a problem as a battle rapper. [He’s] a guy that’s into lyrics.

Kev himself said it was “too much” and seemed like a marketing tactic to promote Game’s new album. He even went as far as to say he could’ve left the track off the album. Bizarre then explained his opinion further, saying The Game basically impersonated Em for the entirety of the song. Safe to say, he wasn’t exactly feeling this approach. “I think he could have did better — or Stat Quo could have did better.” When pressed about this, however, Bizarre responded, “I ain’t say nothing, man. Shout out to Game.” Kev defended The Game, saying he was in the studio with him and didn’t see any ghostwriters. The two quickly changed topics afterward.

What Has Bizarre Been Up To?

Since the D12’s official disbandment in 2018, Bizarre has kept busy despite personal struggles. At the beginning of 2021, the rapper, real name Rufus Johnson, was hospitalized after suffering a stroke. More specifically, a mini stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). However, that didn’t keep him away from the studio. On Halloween of last year, he released his fifth studio album, Dumpster Juice. In June of this year, he released another project titled He Got A Gun. Whether The Game had help in the studio, is still up for debate between fans. You can find the full length interview with Kev and Bizarre on YouTube.

Kid Cudi Ranks Self The Most Hated Man in Hip Hop

American rapper, singer, and songwriter Kid Cudi has shared his conviction that he is the “most hated man in hip hop right now,” as at least “it seems.” Despite that, Kid Cudi, who is also a record producer, believes he is “really one of the most blessed!!” 

The rapper’s tweet has been a concern to some of his followers, while others just laughed it off.

“Lmaooo bro rest,” one told him.

More Reactions From Fans

It was an outright question from some to really understand the post “most hated where,” a fan asked Kid Cudi; the another “Whys he saying that Chaney?”

There are, however, several “you are not Cudi,” “so not true,” and “bro is lying” forms of reassurance of love for the rapper.

Another fan had to remind him that his follower base is vast, and that’s a plus. “you’ve got like 22 Million monthly listeners bro… that’s a Win,” he said.

For some, Cudi should simply “Let them haters stay jealous!!”. He understands that “when you have haters, you’re doing something right.”

A female fan added, “My husband said you’re right where you should be! That says your on the right track.”

Kid Cudi’s Post Resurfaces Issues With Kanye West

Some are finding ways of linking Cudi’s post with him falling out with Kanye West “as you deserve you threw Kanye under the bus for skete,” one said.

Meanwhile, @ragersvoid seems to be endorsing Kid’s point “hated for no reason.”

Others were harsh, “Literally no one gives a damn about you man;’ “YOU DESERVE IT;” “Lead me to the haters. We stand together!”

It didn’t actually stop there – “He thinks he is Kanye” and “step one cross Kanye there won’t be a step two,” another response slashed in.

Just as Kid Cudi doesn’t actually bother about what people say or think about him, for some, @GOATYE_FAN, the reaction was an outright “We don’t care”.

Recall that in April 2022, Cudi posted a Twitter post that showed a crack in his relationship with Kanye West.

Despite all, Cudi is throwing “a special I LOVE YOU to the city of Cleveland,” his homeland from where many love messages are coming in after performing at the Moon Landing Festival.

“Feels like the luckiest man alive to be able to call yall my friends.” Kid Cudi tweeted.

His Netflix series drops on September 30.

The State Of Georgia Complains To Forfeit Young Thug’s Belongings

Young Thug has already spent a reasonable amount of time in custody. He initially went under arrest based on the questionable RICO case, which applies to YSL artists’ song lyrics as allegedly credible evidence. 

The court also denied bond to Young Thug on multiple occasions. His inability to fulfill commitments resulted in more problems, such as A-1 Concert Entertainment suing the artist for missing out on the “Young Thug and Friends” music festival. 

All of the above was insufficient for the state of Georgia’s judicial branch to reverse to third-world standards. You know, the ones supporting the usage of a product of artistic expression as a piece of reasonable evidence. The new questionable reports now come in. 

According to AllHipHop, the state seized Young Thug’s belongings and now wants to forfeit them. The belongings at least include almost $150k in cash and 87 pieces of jewelry. There also was such significant evidence as “a green…sweatshirt.” 

Maybe law enforcement should also bring up extremism charges. Since the shirt has “the phrase ‘SLIME OVER S#### Make America Slime Again.'” 

Why Forfeiting Young Thug’s Property?

The reason why the authorities want to forfeit Thug’s property remains unclear. The Rafaello & Company jewelry claims to own nine chains from the artist’s apartment, which he allegedly never gave back.

However, even the law enforcement declares that “[out] of the nine jewelry pieces which Rafaello & Company Inc. asserts to own…only four pieces resemble any of the…jewelry seized. The other five pieces…do not resemble any of the pieces of jewelry seized.” The reasoning behind seizing the rest of the property, apart from 9 chains, is also unclear.

Thug’s lawyer, Brian Steel, also seems confused by the state’s actions. It makes sense since one can easily find them unconstitutional. 

“Forfeiture of the seized property is barred by the prohibition against excessive fines set forth in the Eighth Amendment,” Steel explained. “The property was either purchased in lawful arms length transactions…or the items were gifted to Claimant by persons who have untainted funds.”

While the situation with Young Thug’s property remains unclear, the artist himself doesn’t seem to get out of jail anytime soon. 

Thug’s incarceration is very controversial due to a multitude of reasons. Questionable lyrics-evidence, and allegedly terrible jail conditions. Multiple bond denials eventually brought more civil court cases to the artist–and now the questionable property seizure, which even the Georgian police finds troublesome to forfeit.

Hopefully, this sorrowful situation will soon end for Young Thug, and the overall problem of using lyrics as evidence will also end.

Lil Mama Still Has Beef With Charlamagne Tha God

New York artist, Lil Mama, has some words for Charlamagne Tha God.  On Charlamagne’s TV show, he sat down with fellow New York rapper Fat Joe.  On “Hell of a Week”, the two discussed PnB Rock’s tragic death.  Fat Joe expresses that being a rapper is one of the most dangerous jobs in America.  You must always keep your head on a swivel, either the police try to put rappers in jail because of their lyrics or someone from your neighborhood wants to kill you.  Someone posted the interview to Instagram and Lil Mama jumped in the comments.

Lil Mama vs Charlamagne

She went after Charlamagne by saying he was a “b**** a** n****”.  She is referring to her interview with New York’s Power 105.1 The Breakfast Club years ago.  In that interview, Charlamagne caused Lil Mama to cry based on the questions and comments during their conversation.  According to the South Carolina radio personality, he was only joking with Lil Mama, but remains unapologetic.

A post shared by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom)

She even became a infamous meme because of this interview.  I guess Lil Mama was watching the interview as of recent as she states she just realized that Charlamagne tried to “trick” her.  Lil Mama continues in the comments accusing Charlamagne to be jealous of her.

Cocoa Butter on Twitter: "19 times “Lil Mama crying” was the funniest meme ever https://t.co/T3fnzIZ7Oy via @blackmon https://t.co/uIPJgSt2PB" / Twitter

Charlamagne Talks

Knowing how Charlamagne the God is, I’m sure he is not worried about this.  And I’m sure he would be welcome to have Lil Mama on The Breakfast Club to have a conversation.  We all know Charlamagne the God is very outspoken on all matters, especially when it comes to our culture.  Regarding PnB Rock’s death, the popular radio personality is confused as to why rappers will post RIP messages all over social media when their peers die, and still support that lifestyle.  He feels rappers should be smarter with all the deaths that have taken place.  I agree!  Rappers need to make some changes.

Yung Miami Claims She’s Retired From Rap, “…I don’t even rap no more!”

It looks like Yung Miami of the Miami-bred duo City Girls may be already retired from the rap game. On Sunday, Yung Miami tweeted her reactions to the game between the NFL’s Atlanta Falcons and Los Angeles Rams. Another Twitter user asked the QC artist if she understood the game of football.

“Yes, I cheered up until high school, I know football very well!!!!!!”, she responded. This led to another person telling Yung Miami to make better music.

“B**** I don’t even rap no more! Eat this p**** h*e I retired!,” Yung Miami exclaimed. This has led many fans to believe she may have already retired from rap. If so, she may lean towards her new role in media. Yung Miami’s Caresha Please podcast launched on P. Diddy’s Revolt network earlier this year. So far, the show has featured guests such as Megan Thee Stallion, Kevin Gates, Saweetie and Diddy himself.

“Revolt is about giving a platform to the most authentic and disruptive voices in Hip-Hop that move the culture,” Puff stated in June. “Yung Miami is not only a superstar artist, she’s also unapologetically herself and brings a perspective women around the world can relate to, which is why I’m excited to bring her podcast to life.”

Caresha Please earned a nomination for Best Hip Hop Platform at this year’s BET Awards. City Girls have also picked up nods at both the BET Awards and the Billboard Music Awards over the last three years. In 2021, they received the “The Future is Female” award from Variety.

The duo haven’t released an album since 2020’s City On Lock. However, their latest track “Good Love” featuring Usher peaked at #70 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in July. As of now, it remains to be seen if Yung Miami has truly called it quits.

Coi Leray Claims Someone Is Out To Harm Her Career!

Recently a war between some female rappers broke out on Twitter, and many believe the legendary Nicki Minaj took a jab at her “Blick Blick” collaborator, Coi Leray. Since then Coi has been on the radar as she feels someone is trying to hurt her career.

According to All Hip-Hop, there has been drama involving the release of Minaj’s “Super Freaky Girl (Queen Mix).” Although we got some fire features from JT, BIA, Katie Got Bandz, Akbar V, and Maliibu Miitch, it seems that other rappers did not make the cut. Fans are assuming Coi Leray may have felt a certain way, as the track did not feature her.

Things get heated between Coi and Nicki.

On September 11th, Nicki Minaj called out rising young artists as “entitled duds.” Just two days before that, Coi Leray tweeted “Industry so weird… only if y’all know the half… yuck… Anyways FLY SH!T OUT NOW.” This happened to be the same day the “Super Freaky Girl (Queen Mix)” was released. She continued to say, “Be careful from fake smiles.”

Yesterday, September 18th, the Trendsetter artist accused an unknown person of paying the media to not post her. She tweeted, “Paying blogs not to post me is sad.”  In another tweet she added, “What’s in the dark always comes to light! Stay prayed up! Stay focused!!” The rapper continues, “Hurt people hurt people.”

Coi then tried to be a bit more positive saying, “Don’t come over here looking for problems. The world got plenty of them already so let’s promote positivity as much as we can.”

After many subs were thrown on Twitter, fans are led to believe theirs definitely some shade going on between Coi Leray and Nicki Minaj over “Queen Mix.” The assumption also began with other celebrities accusing Minaj of using the media to make other artists look bad. Other then Minaj’s ex-boyfriend Meek Mill alleging Minaj worked with blogs to give him a negative image, other rappers such as Remy Ma and Cardi B, also claimed the Queen Barb would try to hurt their reputations.

PnB Rock’s Body To Be Released, Family Drama Ensues

PnB Rock tragically passed away earlier this month (Sep 12). Since the shooting, authorities have begun investigating the crime. Unfortunately, this has caused some friction with the PA rapper’s family. According to anonymous sources, PnB Rock’s mother requested to have her son’s body immediately for religious purposes.

However, the Los Angeles medical examiner could not give up PnB Rock’s body due to an ongoing homicide investigation. Rock’s younger brother PnB Meen subsequently took to Instagram to further elaborate on the issue.

A post shared by The Shade Room (@theshaderoom)

“We been Having trouble getting My brothers back to Philadelphia,” PnB Meen typed. “The state of Los Angeles Claiming they Have some type of Law, goin against ours As Muslims. Now I have no clue when his Janazah It’s not right yo it’s goin on a week.”

Clearly, this is just salt on the wound for an already grieving family.

The Fight For PnB Rock

For those who practice the Muslim faith, a Janazah is a meaningful ceremony that must occur within 72 hours following someone’s death.

Sources told TMZ Rock’s mother flew to la from Philly to identify her son’s body and get it back home for the Janazah. During the meeting in the medical examiner’s office, tensions apparently got so high the LAPD had to be called to prevent any physical altercation. In addition, performing an autopsy goes against PnB Rocks’ faith and was done against his mother’s wishes. Of course, the autopsy is a vital part of the criminal investigation.

Since then, the medical examiner has released an official autopsy report. The report states PnB rock died from a gunshot wound to his back and chest and finalized it as a homicide. Despite all the behind-the-scenes drama with authorities And family, the medical examiner’s office has wrapped up its process and has given permission for funeral proceedings to begin.

It’s unknown if the body is under the family’s custody currently. However, funeral processions should be coming soon since the medical examiner’s office reported that they’ve been ready for the switch since Friday.
