2010-04-05T13:46:00.001-07:00

he homies over at indastreets.net (http://www.indastreets.net/) just updated their site with some Spider Loc news. Apparently the G-Unit rapper recently got into an altercation wit the Bay Area's Yukmouth. Check out the news release below for more details:

"inDAstreets.net "Word From DA Streets" - 6/01/2005 "This just in! Straight from DA Streets. Last night at Club Chi's in Hollywood Yuk's Mouth (no pun intended) appearentlty caught up to him when Spider Loc (the newest member of 50Cents Group G-Unit) Greeted him in the club with a old fashioned Fist Fight & and Chain Snatching. It appears after all of Yuk's tough talking on Mixtapes & records He was confronted, and his entourage of killaz didnt seem to materialize. Witness to this event include many of Hollywoods/ Music Business Elite including Alex Thomas, Suge Knight, Rapper Vietnom, and others. We will (inDAstreets.net) shortly have a picture of Spider with Yukmouths Chain for your viewing pleasure. Yukmouth was also said to call Spider this morning and apologize to him and all of G-unit for all of the disses and offered Spider Loc $1500 to get his chain back. In My opinion Yuk should have came to the West Coast Peace Conference and stopped coming with all them diss tracks. OUTRO --- copyright 2005 inDAstreets.net

The Regime is Gangsta! LMAO hahahaha

The Regime Speaks On Yuk/Spider Altercation - June 2, 2005 By : Nima (nima@dubcnn.com)
http://www.dubcnm.com/images/spiyuk.jpg (http://www.indastreets.net/spiyuk.jpg)http://www.dubcnm.com/images/yukmouth3.jpgAfter indastreets.net (http://www.indastreets.net/) put up a news update yesterday claiming that Spider Loc and Yukmouth got into a fight at a club and Spider Loc jacked Yukmouth for his chain, they also put up a picture of Spider with Yuk's chain up. To view it in larger size, click on the small picture of it to your left.

I was contacted by members of The Regime, as they wanted to let everybody at DUBCNN know their side of the story. Read below to find out what they had to say about this:

"'First of all, The Regime was not at the club with Yukmouth, it was just him and J-Stone, who is in fact a member of The Regime. Now here are the real facts: Spider Loc and five or six other cats confronted Yuk about having beef with 50 Cent.
Yuk told Spider "I ride with J Prince & Rap-A-Lot, you ride with dude [50 Cent]." That's when Spider sucker punched Yuk and in the mist of the confusion, Yuk's chain came off. That's when one of Spiders homies pull out a thumper [gun] in the club.
Now we give him his just due, he was ready, we wasn't, but please believe if more than two members of The Regime was with Yuk, it would have been a shoot out and nothin' less. But we know this was a publicity stunt so Spider can get some 50 Cent brownie points. This was not personal. Just another G-Unit Publicity stunt. We know what kind of dude Spider is, if he wanted to really do the business, he would have took full flight.

Now as for the West Coast Conference, Yuk was not there. He was in Texas, but we (The Regime) was there and so was Spider, he said or did nothing at that time.... So why now?'"

Lil Wayne Begins Year-Long Jail Term in New York

2010-03-08T15:38:00.000-08:00

Lil Wayne was sentenced Monday to a year in jail in New York City for having a loaded gun on his tour bus in 2007, then was taken away in handcuffs to begin his term immediately. The Grammy Award-winning rapper, born Dwayne Carter, was sentenced in Manhattan after pleading guilty in October to attempted criminal possession of a weapon. He admitted having the loaded .40-caliber semiautomatic gun on his tour bus.

The rapper will serve his sentence in city jails, not a state prison. He could be released in about eight months with good behavior. Before Monday's court appearance, it had proved difficult to actually begin Lil Wayne's agreed-upon sentence.

First, the rap star's sentencing was postponed in February so he could undergo surgery on his bejeweled teeth. Then, a fire shut down Manhattan's main criminal courthouse while he was on his way there last week.
Lil Wayne has been one of music's most prolific and profitable figures in recent years. His "Tha Carter III" was the best-selling album of 2008. His latest album, "Rebirth," was released last month.

Facing jail with his career in full throttle, Lil Wayne has prepared with a burst of work and farewell shows and videos for fans. He said in a video clip sent last week to MTV News that he shot footage for seven music videos with various artists in one night over the weekend.

He told Rolling Stone for a story last month that he planned to keep working while behind bars.

"I'll be still rapping in there, have a gang of raps ready when I come back home," he said.

With good behavior, he could be released in about eight months.

City jail officials haven't said where the multiplatinum-selling artist will be housed among their roughly 13,000 inmates. His lawyer has said she plans to ask for protective custody out of concern for his safety and health following his extended oral surgeries.

Z-Ro Faces Drug Possession Charges!!!!

2010-02-24T09:25:00.000-08:00

Texas lyricist Z-Ro will be in court on March 1 to answer a felony drug possession charge from last year. Z-Ro, real name Joseph Wayne McVey, was arrested in February 2009 when authorities found him with a codeine mixture weighing over 28 grams. The rapper’s attorney Robert Jones has proclaimed his client innocent, claiming the codeine bottle was a prescription cough syrup medicine assigned to another party. "Right now, the penalty has been enhanced, so I would have to look that up to see what exactly that is, but I anticipate that he is going to trial because he didn't do anything, so the penalty is zero," Jones explained to the Houston Press blog Hair Balls. “They're trying to ramp up the charges and make him scared so he'll take something. It is nothing more than a form of intimidation. It doesn't change the facts of the case at all." Z-Ro has released 13 solo albums since 1998. Some of his critically-acclaimed LPs, such as 2006’s I’m Still Livin’, were released while the rapper was incarcerated.Last year, Z-Ro was found not guilty for misdemeanor marijuana possession. In 2003, Z-Ro served time for a codeine conviction that violated his parole. Citing his music and industry colleagues, Jones believes his client is telling the truth and would have been ready to face any consequences if he were guilty. “Everybody who knows his music has told me that he is a purist. And he's just an honest, forthright person. If he did it, he'll say he did it,” Jones stated. Z-Ro’s latest studio album is 2009’s Cocaine, which featured appearances from Gucci Mane, Lil Flip, Mike D, and Big Pokey.

2010-02-24T09:16:00.000-08:00

It has been announced to HMF ENTERTAINMENT.COM that Turk a/k/a Lil Turk of The Hot Boys lost younger brother Ronald Smith to gun violence yesterday (February 22). Smith was shot in killed early yesterday morning in the Jefferson Parish of New Orleans', the family's hometown. A 19 year-old, Travis Dennis, is already in police custody, and reportedly confessed to the killing.Website KeepItTrill.com has posted a statement from Turk on the loss of his younger sibling. Noting a closeness with Ronald, Turk, the older brother asks fans to help his struggling mother. “My mother is mourning over the loss of her youngest child and over the fact that there is no insurance or funds to arrange the proper burial. I am asking for you to get the word out and to also help financially in any way you can.” The rest of the statement can be read at KeepItTrill.com

At present, Turk is serving a 12-year prison sentence related to a Tennessee shooting of a police officer in 2004. The former Cash Money Records rapper has been in prison for nearly five years, and is expected to be released by 2017. In October, Hot Boy brethren Juvenile spoke of the incarcerated fourth member of the late '90s super-group of Lil Wayne, B.G., Juvenile and Lil Turk. "I wish I could have him out here right now, but bruh, it is what it is,” said Juve of Turk. “He locked up in Tennessee. They got laws down there dude that’s from what…the 1800s. And by that being the situation, being against the police… I put some money up and everything to get him out dude, so it ain’t like we not behind him to get him out and we don’t wanna see him free, he’s just in a situation where it’s 'Johnny Law' and he don’t wanna see him free."
Juvenile, Mannie Fresh and Lil Wayne have all lost family members to tragedy in the course of their decade-plus careers.
HMF ENTERTAINMENT extends our condolences to Turk, his mother and family and friends of Ronald Smith. We encourage our readers to help.

Waka Flocka Not Concerned With Identity Of Assailant that shot him and took his chain!!!!!!

2010-02-24T09:02:00.000-08:00

Last week, a man claiming to have been responsible for shooting rapper Waka Flocka Flame sent a picture of himself with Flocka's stolen diamon chain.But according to MTV News, the young rapper isn't sweating it, and is instead choosing to move on."I don't know [if it was actually the gunman] 'cause I didn't even see who shot me," said Flocka, sarcastically adding, "I thought a dog shot me. I thought a bird shot me. It's stupid."Flocka already has a new chain to replace the old one. "This is round two," he said of the new piece.The rapper even took time to thank his assailant, saying, "I ain't worried about you. I appreciate you too. You got me sacked up, real talk. I got a stupid house off you, cars off you. I appreciate you, man."Flocka had no explanation for why a man who supposedly attempted murder would incriminate themselves, though he says he's washed his hands of it. "It is what it is. Y'all said enough. I did enough...Let them live their life, I'mma live my life." Waka Flocka Flame is signed to Gucci Maine label.

Suge Knight's Assets Auctioned After Failure To Pay Bills

2010-02-24T08:49:00.000-08:00

This past weekend, possessions of Death Row Records founder Suge Knight were sold off in order to pay off storage debts. Several crates of the mogul's furniture, clothing and gym equipment were auctioned off to California buyers after he failed to pay Conejo Valley Moving & Storage owner Joe Furmidge, according to the Ventura County Star. The assets came from Knight's former Malibu mansion which was also sold in 2008 following an '06 bankruptcy. Auctioneers Dan and Laura Dotson said that the Hip Hop businessman's fame attracted a number of potential buyers. "The name that is behind it," said Laura Dotson, "I think a lot of curiosity is here and people wanting to own a little bit of that."According to the newspaper, a flat-screen television was sold for $230, a large photo with Knight and late Rap artist Tupac Shakur went for $100, and other items were sold for relatively low prices. The auction garnered $4,500, which almost covered Knight's bill."It didn't quite cover what he owed us, but almost," said Furmidge. "That's better than a stick in the eye."

Russell Simmons tells on Jay Z!!!!

2010-02-24T08:21:00.000-08:00

February 24, 2010. As most people in the entertainment industry know, Russell Simmons is a big HATER – especially towards other BLACK FOLK!!! But who knew that the levels of HATERATION would get to this level.Russy gave an interview yesterday with New York’s very conservative republican newspaper, the NY Post, and in it he suggested that rapper Jay Z and the NY Governor were in some kind of CORRUPT DEALING. You’ll recall that HMF ENTERTAINMENT.com reported a few days ago that FEDERAL AGENTS are already looking into Jay Z’s dealings.Here is how the paper is reporting it:
Simmons said the firm he advises -- Penn National Gaming -- and not AEG should have won the contract to operate 4,500 video-lottery terminals at the faded horse racing facility. "Why didn't the leadership just take the best deal for the people? [Jay Z’s deal] just wasn't the best deal for New York . . . Can any of my dear friends in New York government tell me where and when did it all go wrong . . . They offered the most money to the state, by $100 million, up front. They can pay the fastest because they have the money in the bank," Russy can’t stand to see another Black man beat him at his own game, but come on. His SNITCHING could end up getting Jay Z locked up!!!There ain’t nothing worse than an old azz hater . .

Nipsey Hussle - Best Thang Smokin'!!! Interview!!!

2009-12-16T14:24:00.000-08:00

I keep saying this and I’m going to say it again. Something is happening in the West Coast. The pot is on the stove. The water is warming up and it’s getting ready to boil over. Artists like Jay Rock, Tyga, G. Malone, Crooked I and more are slowly building a West Coast syndicate that has enough talent to take over the game and return Cali to it’s most prosperous level in years, maybe even as successful as the days of the Chronic.

One of the latest artists to step into the mix is South Central’s own Nipsey Hussle. Signed to Jon Shapiro’s Cinematic Music Group, Nipsey is a street tested MC with enough swagger to appeal to audiences in any part of the world. His songwriting abilities are compared to that of 50 Cent. His swag is compared to that of Snoop Dogg but don’t get it twisted, Nipsey is his own artist.
Cali’s hip-hop poster boy The Game calls Nipsey the hottest artist coming out of Cali. While it may seem like a lot for a new artist to handle Nipsey Hussle welcomes the challenges that lie ahead of him. HMF.com caught up with the Cali spitter to discuss working with The Game, getting love from Power 106, and his plans for his career.

HMF.Com: All right Nipsey I know you grew up in Cali. Give us a little background. What was life like for you growing up?

Nipsey Hussle: Um, you know I grew up on 60th street on the West Side, South Central. That’s Crenshaw and Slauson. My life was better than some and worse than others. I’m not gonna give you the usual young niggas in the hood sad story, you feel me? I grew up in the hood you know and I was held down by a gang called the Rolling 60’s. Growing up in that territory had a big influence on me. I experienced a lot of shit as a young nigga. I seen a lot of shit so for better or worse my shit was just hood.

HMF.Com: Now through all this at what point did you get into hip-hop?

Nipsey Hussle: Man I been on this shit since day one. I’m not the nigga to say that I’m not a rapper. I’m most definitely a rapper and I been pursuing this shit since day one, you feel me? I would be in school spittin’. I was supposed to be doing schoolwork but I was writing rhymes, spittin’ in the hallways. You know how that goes. I could honestly say I been doin’ this shit since I was about seven.

HMF.Com: I spoke to The Game a few months back and he said you were hands down the hottest cat coming out of the West Coast. How do you feel to get a co-sign like that?

Nipsey Hussle: That’s incredible and I appreciate that because his word and what he thinks mean a lot. It’s a hell of a compliment. It is what it is.

HMF.Com: You guys also worked together. What was that experience like for you?

Nipsey Hussle: Game is crazy with his shit man. I been a game fan for a minute and the way he works I crazy. We got in the booth and we knocked out some shit in like fifteen minutes, you know? It was real cool. From the first day Game and me met it was all love my nigga. We met and we clicked you know? We got in the studio because I’m always in the studio and we was just vibin’ off each other shit and we came out with some hot shit man, you feel me?

HMF.Com: How did you end up getting your deal with Jon Shapiro and Cinematic?

Nipsey Hussle: Basically I was just grindin’ hard and puttin’ crazy shit out in the street. Shapiro heard some shit and we started talking. It was the same kinda situation I had with Game where we just clicked quick from jump, you feel me? He heard another joint on Myspace and I got flown out to New York. After that it was on and poppin’ you know?

HMF.Com: So your buzz was already poppin in the streets?

Nipsey Hussle: Yeah well you know I was putting that shit out in the street so a nigga had a little buzz going. I had a couple records out as well that was poppin’ out here on Power 106 so I was getting’ some love like that, you feel me? Jon and me got up to do the paperwork and he made me an offer I couldn’t refuse so we got it done.

HMF.Com: Was it a big transition going from the streets to head first into the industry?

Nipsey Hussle: Oh yeah this is real different. The streets is the streets and the industry is something else. You gotta learn how to navigate through it so I’m just soaking everything up as I go along. I’m learning a lot because this is a whole different thing for me, you know?

HMF.Com: Your songwriting abilities are compared to some of the most talented dudes out there like 50 and Snoop. Where did that talent come from?

Hussle: I mean honestly I think it come from hard work and doing it so much. You know how they say that practice makes perfect. When I hear a beat a whole bunch of shit goes through my mind. And the main thing I’m thinking about is how I could approach it so it grabs the most amount of people. There are a lot of artists who can spit a verse but they can’t write a song or they write a song that’s trash, it’s disposable, you feel me? My goal is to make the exact opposite of that. I’m trying to make music that lasts. You gotta make sure your content is right. I’m trying to do it like Tupac so that’s what I mean when I talk about content in the music.

HMF.Com: How do you feel about the music coming from the West Coast right now?

Nipsey Hussle: I’m lovin’ it my nigga. I feel like this is a fresh start for us, you feel me? I feel like we got a chance to just do what we gotta do and make more history.

HMF.Com: Who are some newer artists you’re feeling that are coming out of the West Coast?

Nipsey Hussle: Man there’s too many niggas out here to name that’s really doing their thing man. We got a lot of talent out here for real man. I’m supporting any nigga out here who’s doing him, making good music, and keepin’ it real in the music, you feel me? We got some major talent about to pop and I love to see it. It’s a beautiful thing.

HMF.Com: A lot of successful artists from the West came into the game with that Dre or Snoop co-sign. Do you think that coming into the game without that puts you in a different category?

Nipsey Hussle: I mean it’s a little different but I got my own movement my nigga. I think both of them cats are incredible but I’m doing my thing. I hope I get to work with them in the future. I’m just looking forward to having a successful career, you know?

HMF.Com: Do you feel like you are going to bring a lot of attention back to the West Coast?

Nipsey Hussle: I think I’m definitely gonna bring attention back to the West but not even just the West but hip-hop in general. I feel like I’m about to do some real big things that are gonna made a serious impact on this game.

HMF.Com: Who are some of the artists that have influenced you musically?

Nipsey Hussle: Tupac, Jay-Z, Nas, Biggie. There’s a few cats that I listen to and get inspired by my nigga.

HMF.Com: All right man so tell us what you have coming up that we can check for.

Nipsey Hussle: I’m hitting the mixtapes hard. We got some songs in rotation on the radio. My company is up and runnin’, All Money In, No Money Out. We makin’ some big moves my nigga.

HMF.Com: Anything you’d like to say to all the fans out there?

Nipsey Hussle: Much love to Sixshot.com for reaching out. Ya’ll can check me out at www.myspace.com/mipseyhussle. I wanna thank everybody for all that support they’re showing right now. Peace my nigga.

Kid Cudi Kicked Off 'Monster Tour' For Punching Fan!!!

2009-12-16T14:16:00.000-08:00

Another day, another rapper kicked off from Lady Gaga's tour.
According to Rap Radar, Kid Cudi has reportedly been kicked off Lady Gaga's 'Monster Tour' for punching a fan during a performance in Vancouver last week.
The incident occurred after an audience member threw a wallet onstage while Cudi was performing.

Michael Sharpe, the man who Cudi punched, decided not to press charges against the rapper because prior to him throwing the wallet onstage, someone else had thrown the wallet onstage and Cudi tossed itt owards him.
Sharpe claimed he threw the wallet back up onstage because it wasn't his. Cudi then came toward Sharpe and began punching him.
It is currently unknown who will be replacing Cudi.

Cudi is the second rapper to be kicked off Gaga's tour. Kanye West was initially slated to hit the road with Gaga but was dropped after causing a ruckus at the MTV Awards in October.

Nas Busted For DUI!!!

2009-12-16T14:11:00.000-08:00

Nas was busted on a DUI rap and later released, according to information that recently surfaced online.
The rapper and his brother, nicknamed "Jungle," were both arrested on September 10 after a routine safety check in Georgia when police smelled marijuana inside the rapper's Cadillac Escalade truck.

According to the police report obtained by MTV News, Nas was pulled over near the I-75 exit ramp in Stockbridge, Georgia, at aproximately 2:30 p.m. Police were conducting license checks when officers approached Nas' vehicle. The odor of marijuana coming from Nas' car led police to ask the rapper to exit his car.

Uniformed officers then asked Nas to participate in four separate sobriety tests. The report characterized Nas as having "droopy" eyes and being unable to fully complete several tasks, including standing on one leg.

The arresting officer described Nas at the time as having "redding of the conjunctiva in both eyes, rebound dilation in both eyes, a green tongue with raised taste buds, and his pulse was raised to 116 beats per minute."

The rapper was taken to the nearby Henry County police station, where he was charged with one count of driving under the influence and released. Information in the report states that Nas admitted to smoking marijuana two hours prior to being pulled over. His brother, whose real name is Jabari Jones, was also arrested and police seized one plastic bag of marijuana belonging to him.

Nas is scheduled to appear in court to answer to the charges at a future date.
He's also embroiled in a legal struggle with his estranged wife, R&B singer Kelis. The two are in the midst of a divorce and custody battle over their son. Kelis was granted temporary spousal and child support while the pair continue to resolve the matter in court.

Former Three Six Mafia Member Denies Robbery Charges!!!

2009-12-16T14:05:00.000-08:00

Memphis rapper Gangsta Boo, a former member of the Three 6 Mafia camp now with the Drum Squad, is denying involvement in the July robbery of a dollar store in Olive Branch.

The 30-year-old rapper, whose real name is Lola Chantrelle Mitchell, was one of two suspects taken into custody this week in the July 23 armed robbery of a Dollar General Store, Olive Branch police said. She was charged with conspiracy to commit the crime of armed robbery.

Marcus Curtis, 30, of Memphis, was extradited from the Shelby County Jail to Olive Branch, where he is being held on $100,000 bond on armed robbery charges.

Boo proclaimed her innocence on Thursday on her Twitter page, where she also retweeted dozens of messages of support from friends and fans.

Police Maj. Tim Presley would not elaborate on Mitchell's role, and would only say an investigation led to the suspects.

The pair are accused in the holdup that occurred about 9 p.m. at 10956 Nichols. A man armed with a revolver ordered clerks there to help him bag money and then he demanded they lie down while he fled the store.

Several bouncers from Jay-Z's 40/40 Club in Atlantic City, N.J. have gotten the boot for their part in a melee with club patrons.

The brawl, which was caught on tape by witnesses, happened outside the popular Atlantic Avenue hot spot in the early morning hours of Nov. 28.
In the video, two club goers are repeatedly pummeled by as many as 13 staffers in a rear parking lot. The victims were then arrested for disorderly conduct.

The men -- Tyrell Durant, 26, and Leonard Clark, 25 -- said they were beaten without cause. The 40/40 Club offered little comment on the attack, claiming the incident was provoked after Durant struck a bouncer.

Despite their justification, several bouncers involved were given the pink slip Thursday, says a former member of the security staff.
The bouncer -- who asked to remain anonymous -- told NBCPhiladelphia that he and several other members of his team were let go because of the incident.

The club's former security supervisor also confirmed the bloodletting with gossip blog TMZ. "We were initially all suspended and then fired for misconduct," Couri Glenn told the web site.
No word on if the charges will be dropped against the patrons. Requests for comment from the club's publicist were not returned.

The album features Gucci's first single "Wasted" feat. Plies, a #1 song at urban mainstream radio, and the crossover smash "Spotlight" feat. Usher. Amongst the album's cameos is a who's-who of urban music with guest spots from Lil Wayne, Keyshia Cole, Soulja Boy, Rick Ross, Trina, Cam'ron, Nicki Minaj, E-40 and laugh out loud skits with comedian, Mike Epps. Even those outside of the hip-hop Diaspora have begun to take notice of Gucci Mane's rising profile. His work has caught the attention of the larger musical community including revered DJ/producer Diplo who recently announced a project where he will remix Gucci's acclaimed Cold War mixtape series to a backdrop of eclectic soundscapes. The New York Times chimes in on the recent phenomena: "[Gucci Mane] has been the most prolific rapper in Atlanta over the last two years, the most hotly discussed, and also the most improved. In the last few months he's had the swiftest ascent to hip-hop ubiquity since Lil Wayne." The Washington Post further co-signs the rapper's recent accomplishments stating, "It would be tough to find a truer, more communal swatch of pop music released this year." On November 12, 2009, Gucci Mane was sentenced to 12 months in Georgia's Fulton County Jail for violating his parole mandates. Pending a review of his case, Gucci is eligible for an early release from custody in 2010.

FREEDOM!!!! RAPPER T.I MAYBE MOVING TO A HALFWAY HOUSE BY NEW YEARS!!!!

2009-12-16T13:03:00.000-08:00

Atlanta rap star T.I. is expected to be moved to a halfway house shortly after the first of the year as he nears the end of his federal prison sentence for illegal firearms possession and for possessing a gun as a convicted felon, officials confirmed Tuesday.
T.I., whose real name is Clifford Harris Jr., began serving his sentence of a year and a day at a low-security prison in Arkansas last May. He is expected to be released from Bureau of Prisons custody on March 23, after serving 85 percent of his sentence.
Bureau of Prisons spokesman Edmond Ross said it was customary for an inmate to transition from prison to freedom via a halfway house if there is no danger to the community and if there is space at a facility near where he is to live after his prison time.
Usually that process begins when there are 18 months remaining on a sentence, “but in this case it would have to start sooner. It’s not uncommon for inmates to be placed in community corrections for the last portion of their confinement to help with his transition.”
Harris also could spend the final month of his sentenced confined to his house, Ross said.
Harris pleaded guilty in 2008 to possessing two silencers, three machine guns, a rifle and six handguns. In total, federal officers found 24 handguns, machine guns and rifles in Harris' Range Rover and hree machine guns at his house in College Park.
Harris -- convicted Cobb County in 1998 for possessing cocaine with intent to distribute -- he also pleaded guilty to possession of a firearms by a felon.
Federal agents targeted Harris in 2007 after they arrested his body guard, who bought guns from undercover agents. He said the three machine guns and two silencers were for Harris.
Shortly after the bodyguard arrest, Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agents arrested T.I. when he took delivery of the weapons from the bodyguard. The arrest took place just hours before, and blocks away from where Harris was to receive two awards at the 2007 BET Hip-Hop Awards in Atlanta.
As part of his plea deal, Harris agreed to spend 1,500 hours talking to at-risk children and teens; including 1,000 due before prison. After he is released, Harris has a year on house arrest and two more on probation. The government fined him $100,000.

Reggae Star Buju Banton Held By Police On Drug Charges, DEA Confirms Arrest

2009-12-15T13:26:00.000-08:00

reggae star Buju Banton is facing a drug charge in Florida. Banton, whose real name is Mark Anthony Myrie, has been in U.S. federal custody in Miami since Thursday. Drug Enforcement Administration spokesman David Melenkevitz said Sunday that Banton was arrested on a charge of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute more than five kilograms of cocaine. The charge stems from a DEA case in Tampa. (Associated Press)
The Jamaican dancehall star Buju Banton has a long-standing reputation for inciting anti-gay sentiment (his 1992 single "Boom Bye Bye" proposes pouring acid on homosexuals and shooting them in the head with an Uzi, among other things; in 2004, he was tried and acquitted on charges that he participated in the beating of six gay men). (Entertainment Weekly)
"Banton's anti-gay lyrics and the climate of hatred they create are a threat to the safety of gay and transgender people everywhere," said GLAAD President Jarrett Barrios. "It is deeply disappointing that The Recording Academy would choose to laud the work of a singer who has advocated violence against the gay community." (Pink Paper News)
Buju Banton was one of the most popular dancehall reggae artists of the '90s. Debuting with a series of popular "slack" singles, which drew criticism for their graphic sexuality and homophobia, Banton converted to Rastafarianism and revolutionized dancehall by employing the live instrumentation and social consciousness of classic roots reggae.

A shamed Philadelphia cop is facing more than 12 years in prison after he was caught up in the drug dealing empire of hip-hop mogul ALTON ‘ACE CAPONE’ COLES.
In April (09), Take Down Records boss Coles was found guilty of conspiracy to distribute cocaine in Pennsylvania’s major cities and of leading a criminal enterprise which put $25 million (£17.8 million) worth of the drug onto the streets.
He was sentenced to life imprisonment plus 55 years behind bars.
Former police officer Rickie Durham was alleged to have tipped off a pal about an imminent raid on Coles, knowing that the message would be relayed to the drugs lord.
He was subsequently charged with obstruction of justice and one count of giving a false statement, and convicted on Thursday (24Sep09).
Durham - a police officer for 12 years - is due to be sentenced later this month (Sep09).

Despite claims that Tiger Woods was cheap when it came to spending money on the women with whom he had relationships, some did benefit financially and continue to do so.
According to several women who were involved with the golfer, Woods wired money to them on a monthly basis. The dollar amounts they cite range from $5,000 to $10,000 per month, and there’s talk among those women that someone out there might be getting as much as $20,000 per month.
“The money comes via a wire transfer,” said one woman. “There’s no contract about it, there’s no discussion about what it’s for, but it’s implied that it’s in exchange for keeping quiet about his affair.”
