Azealia Banks Reportedly Files Battery Report Against Russell Crowe
Banks goes to the police following confrontation with Crowe.
Azealia Banks and Russell Crowe have two very different stories about what went down in Crowe's hotel suite Saturday night. About the only thing they can agree upon is Crowe physically removed Banks from the premises. TMZ is reporting that Banks has filed a formal battery report with the police against Crowe after he refused to apologize.
Banks attended a dinner party at Crowe's Beverly Hills hotel rool on Saturday night along with RZA, with whom she is collaborating on film and music projects. According to eyewitnesses, Banks questioned Crowe's musical taste and called him and his friends "boring white men" before telling a woman in the room, “you would love it if I broke my glass, stabbed you guys in the throat." When she grabbed a glass, Crowe physically picked up her up and deposited her in the hallway.
That is the story told by Crowe and the rest of his guests. Banks alleges that Crowe called her racial slurs, choked her, and spat on her. “I have receipts. Stay tuned.” she wrote on Facebook. Her manager, Raýmani, released a statement on her behalf in a pair of tweets. "Azealia is tremendously distraught and disheartened," he wrote. "She is shell shocked... and will speak out on the incident once she has had time to process the brutality and abuse she was unjustly subjected to.
Adrien Broner Reportedly Choked Out A Waitress At A Las Vegas Nightclub
More trouble for Adrien Broner.
It has been quite a roller coaster of a week for Adrien Broner.
Just a few days ago, he posted a series of disturbing images and captions on his instagram page hinting that he was going to commit suicide. Days later, he was posting videos from the passenger seat of Floyd Mayweather's Bugatti as the two cruised the Las Vegas strip.
Today, TMZ is reporting that Broner was cited for misdemeanor battery for allegedly choking out a waitress at Drai's, a Las Vegas nightclub. According to the report, cops were called to the club at around 3:30am on Sunday when the waitress claimed that Broner put his hand around her neck and said, "Bitch, I will knock you out."
Broner vehemently denied any wrongdoing although there was a witness who confirmed the woman's side of the story. The incident was also allegedly captured on video.
Trump Supporter Threatens To Kill Hillary Clinton If She's Elected President
Caught on CNN, a Trump supporter says he won't rule out murdering Hillary Clinton if she gets elected president.
We don't have to tell you by now that the 2016 Presidential election is the most bizarre, surreal, nauseating charade the United States of America has produced in a long time. In a video that will shock no one but probably should, a clip from CNN has surfaced today on the Twitter sphere of a Trump supporter named Dan Bowman, who says he may assassinate Hillary Clinton if she wins the election.Caught on CNN, a Trump supporter says he won't rule out murdering Hillary Clinton if she gets elected president.
"I feel Hillary needs to be taken out," Bowman starts. "If she gets into government, I'll do everything in my power to take her out of power, and if I have to be a patriot, I will."
When asked if he's threatening Hillary Clinton with physical violence, Bowman answered, "Take it any way you wanna take it."
Trump's consistent toxic rhetoric about the Democrats rigging the vote against him is nearly unprecedented in American politics, as it poses a major threat to the safety of American society and democracy following the election. In lighter news, if you haven't seen SNL's hilarious parody of the second debate,

Lil Wayne Drops The Theme Song For Skip Bayless' New FS1 Show "Undisputed"
Listen to a snippet of "No Mercy" the new "Undisputed" theme song.
Skip Bayless' new show on Fox Sports 1, "Undisputed" will kick off next Tuesday, September 6th, at 9:30am EST and it will feature the musical stylings of Skip's long time pal, Lil Wayne.
"Lil Wayne has been a friend and frequent guest on my show," he said, "and I’ve told him how honored I am to have such a legend create such a great song for our new show."
Billboard just recently announced that Fox Sports 1 commissioned Lil Wayne to come up with the theme song for "Undisputed," and that Weezy will be making an appearance on the premiere episode next week.
The president of Jingle Punks, Jared Gutstadt, who wrote and produced the track for Wayne, told Billboard;
“Knowing that Fox Sports is about to launch one of the biggest sports debate shows of all time, it’s only fitting that they partnered Jingle Punks with the biggest and most respected rapper of all time. It was absolutely astounding to see what Lil Wayne was able to bring to the table on this song."
Skip will be joined by co-host Shannon Sharpe as well as sports radio host, Joy Taylor who will be mediating the debates between the two outspoken personalities on FS1.
Ray J Says Chris Brown's Arrest Is "Wrong And Sad"
"I can't say what's truthful or not because I've never seen that happen and I was right there."
On Tuesday, a long police standoff at Chris Brown's L.A. home following reports that he had pulled a gun on a woman ended with the singer being arrested. Brown was released on $250,000 bail today, and while he has yet to make a statement following his arrest, his lawyer has stressed that the "allegations against him are demonstrably false," while Ray J, who was present at the time of the alleged threat, has also spoken up on the events.
"My job is to just say that Chris is 100... meaning he's a good dude," Ray J told Entertainment Tonight, going on to question alleged victim Baylee Curran's story. "I think it was wrong and sad, and it hurts my feelings that you work so hard to try to get better, and a small little length of a story that you don't even know is even real or not can affect you this much without even getting the facts."
However, Ray J was hesitant to go on record to dispute Curran's claims that Brown pulled a gun on her, before a car began to follow her when she left the home. "I can't say what's truthful or not because I've never seen that happen and I was right there... So I don't want to comment." Later on, he told the host, "Everything you're saying is ridiculous to me."

Kanye West's Video Choreographer Explains The "Fade" Video
Jae Blaze explains Kanye's bizarre new video starring Teyana Taylor.
Kanye West has taken the weirdness of his music videos to a new level since he released The Life of Pablo. "Fade," which he debuted last night at the VMAs, comprises of Teyana Taylor doing a hypnotizing dance routine in a sweaty thong than turning into a naked lion alongside Iman Shumpert. Pitchfork spoke with "Fade" choreographer and artistic director Jae Blaze to attempt to elucidate her and Kanye's vision. The end product of the video, in her estimation was "absolute black magic."
"Kanye, I can't stop saying it, he's just a creative genius," Blaze said. "When he came in, he told us, 'I like this particular move, but I want to take it to the next level. Show me what you can do on top of this move.' He has something specific on his mind, as a visionary. And we have to translate that onto Teyana's body."
"Fade" immediately drew comparisons to the stylish 1983 film "Flashdance." Blaze seemed to confirm that 'Flashdance' served as an inspiration for the video: "You know what the funny thing is? Everyone is just referencing 'Flashdance,' and that is a great conversation to be in because the movie was epic... I mean, she just took 'Flashdance' to 2016, if you want to put it like that. She brought it to a generation of some people who many not have even seen the movie before! She made it relevant and current right now. Her body is amazing. Her dancing was amazing. She's just a beast. All in all, it just came together really well."
Blaze also clarified the most confusing part of the video, in which Teyana becomes a lioness. "I think the vision behind that was how amazing Teyana is, and how she's been on the rise, and how she's working, and you are now seeing her blossom into this fierce lioness, this fierce cat," Blaze said. "She has worked her way into that, and she's in a great position right now in her life. She has her family. She's being held down by her amazing husband. She has a beautiful daughter. You know, the lioness always protects her baby. I think it really is about her coming into her fierceness. And that's where she is in her life right now. She is blossoming."
Lil Wayne's Closes Lil Weezyana Fest By Yelling "Fuck Cash Money"
Lil Wayne disses Cash Money at Lil Weezyana fest.
While Birdman has expressed interest in repairing his relationship with Lil Wayne, possibly because he is the defendant in Wayne's outstanding $51 million lawsuit against Cash Money, it is quite apparent that Wayne doesn't feel the same way.
At the end of his performance at this weekend's Lil Weezyana Fest in New Orleans, Wayne shared a parting message with the crowd. “Before I get out this motherfucker," he said, “I want to say three more important words: fuck Cash Money.”
This is not the first time Wayne has publicly uttered these words or some variant. His lawsuit against Cash Money is currently on hold, and he seems quite eager to get on with it so he can finally exact on the label to whom he is still signed.

Target Puts French Montana's "MC4" Out For Sale Despite Album Delay
Target accidentally sells copies of "MC4" before it's officially released.
Three days before the scheduled release of his long-awaited album MC4, French Montana announced that the album would be delayed due to "sample clearance" issues. Target didn't get the memo.
One Target retailer put physical copies of MC4 out for sale on Friday morning. Twitter user Matt Albin spotted MC4 on the rack sandwiched inbetween Tory Lanez' I Told You and Rae Sremmurd's SremmLife 2. He recounted the encounter with the accidentally released album in a blog post:
"I went to a Target to purchase Tory Lanez' new album I Told You and sitting right next to the album was MC4," he wrote. "I went to the self-checkout and had to receive customer assistance. The employee that came to fix the issue knew the album was pushed back and didn’t allow me to purchase it. After the fact, I contacted another Target employee that I know and he revealed that it is possible to purchase the album despite the pushback. It just depends on the employee you are dealing with."
A Tribe Called Quest Is Dropping A New Album, Recorded Before Phife Dawg's Death
According to L.A. Reid, Epic Records will soon release the first album from A Tribe Called Quest in 18 years. The group apparently finished recording the album before Phife Dawg's death in March.
Hip-hop took a huge loss earlier this year with the sudden death of Phife Dawg of A Tribe Called Quest. Almost five months after his passing -- though the sting of his absence remains -- some fortuitous news has just arrived that fans of the late founding Tribe member will be overjoyed to hear. According to L.A. Reid, A Tribe Called Quest recorded a new album before the group lost Phife. Reid confirmed that his team at Epic Records is currently planning to release the album and that it's "coming very soon."
Reid announced the new Tribe album on the latest episode of the Rap Radar podcast, while he was discussing Epic's recent ventures. "You know what I'm really excited about, though: A Tribe Called Quest," he said. "We have a Tribe Called Quest album coming. I'm really excited about that," before going on to confirm that the album was recorded before Phife's death. "Man, it's something really special," he said of the album.
When it arrives, the album will be A Tribe Called Quest's first since 1998's The Love Movement. Reid also revealed that the album will include all four Tribe members that appeared on the group's debut album, People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm, including Jarobi White, who hasn't appeared on any of their LPs since.
Consequence Says He Was A "Ghostwriter" On Jay Z’s “Encore”
According to Consequence, he was a "ghostwriter" for Jay Z's "Encore."
The topic of “ghostwriting” has been a conversation that many hip-hop fans & enthusiasts have been having following last year’s Drake x Meek Mill x Quentin Miller saga. While many people understand that their favorite rapper might not write 100% of their lyrics, others believe they should and like to argue the case of authenticity when a debate is had. Well for those of you who believe only a true artist writes his lyrics, you might be surprised to hear that Jay Z, who’s arguably the best rapper of all-time, has used a ghostwriter in the past .
In a new interview with Power 106 LA, long time Kanye West-collaborator Consequence spilled the news on a record he once helped for Hov. According to Consequence, he and Kanye West came up with chorus for Hov’s Black Album standout “Encore.”
“One record in particular I was happy about to be a part of was Jay Z’s ‘Encore’. When me and Kanye (kinda) was on the phone & we actually kinda came up with the chorus back & forth.”
As DJ Booth points out the definition of a ghostwriter is someone who contributes to a song or project and does not receive an official writing credit. And what do you know, Consequence’s name is nowhere to be found on the song’s credits (See here).
Watch Consequence spill the news about his ghostwriting past in the new interview below. (Jay talk comes around 8:30 mark)

Stream Ka's Album "Honor Killed The Samurai"
LIsten to Brownsville veteran Ka's "Honor Killed the Samurai."
Brownsville rapper and producer and amateur New York historian Kaseem "Ka" Ryan's new album Honor Killed the Samurai is one of the best underground albums of the year. Upon listening through its 10 songs I felt compelled to share it, even though it was released last week. To some degree, Ka treats wordplay as an end unto itself, like Doom. But mostly he uses clever, conceptual bars to weave strands of Japanese philosophy through his own experiences growing up in Brooklyn. “We was born in the thorns, few arose / Once a town’s noose, now in soundproofs pursuing golds."
Buy Honor Killed the Samurai on iTunes and stream it below via Spotify.

Donald Glover Might Play Young Lando Calrissian In Upcoming Star Wars Movie
The studio wants to cast Donald Glover as Lando Calrissian in the upcoming Han Solo movie.
After watching Marvel make a fortune by giving each of its extensive cast of superheroes their own movie, Lucasfilms is now doing the same with Star Wars. In addition to Episodes 7-9, they are producing a Han Solo spinoff currently scheduled for a May 2018 release. They are in the process of casting the film, and according to BirthMoviesDeath, their first choice for young Lando Calrissian is none other than Donald Glover.
As you might recall, Billy Dee Williams aka Gale Sayers portrayed Calrissian in the first Star Wars trilogy. Calrissian was a former pilot and administrator of Cloud City who ultimately assisted the Rebel Alliance in their quest to overthrow Imperial Forces.
Glover as Calrissian is far from a done deal, but intriguing to consider. His FX show "Atlanta" premieres on September 6th.

DJ Mustard & YG To Reunite On Upcoming “400 Summers” Mixtape
DJ Mustard & YG are teaming up for the joint mixtape "400 Summers."
It looks like DJ Mustard & YG are officially putting the past behind them. On Wednesday, the two West Coast natives took to their socials to announce a joint project called 400 Summers.
“400 SUMMERS MIXTAPE COMING…Wasn’t pose to give it away but fuck it @YG.” Mustard tweeted out along with a picture of the two kicking next to a Benz. YG later confirmed the project himself by sharing the same photo & announcement on his own accounts as well. No other details are really known at the moment, other than it's "koming soon doe", but this definitely got us anticipating these two getting back together for the first time since YG's wildly successful debut album Still Krazy.
While we wait to see what these two cooked up for us, peep the tweet below and check out YG’s wildly successful sophomore album Still Brazy in the meantime
Young Buck Reportedly Sentenced To 7 Months In Prison
Young Buck is said to have violated the conditions of his August release.
After being released from jail on August 1st, Young Buck has been sentenced to 7 months in prison after violating the conditions of his release, according to Nashville Scene.
The rapper was arrested in July after allegedly kicking down his then-girlfriend's door and threatening to burn her house down, itself a violation of previous conditions from 2013 charges. After serving jail time for that incident, he was released at the beginning of August on the condition that he would not have any contact -- direct or indirect -- with the woman he threatened, but after a reported 100 or more attempts to get in touch with her, he has been hit with a 7-month prison sentence.
An excerpt from the U.S. Attorney's office in reference to Buck's sentencing can be found below.
On July 20, 2016, another of Brown’s ex-girlfriends obtained an Ex Parte Order of Protection in state court and arrest warrants were issued against Brown based on an incident in which Brown wanted to get certain property out of that woman’s house and was told that the property was not there. He then kicked in the door of the residence and threatened that woman. Brown was arrested for violating his supervision, and was detained pending a detention hearing. After that hearing, the federal magistrate determined Brown could be released pending the final hearing on this incident and the previous March 2016 incident, but ordered Brown not to have any direct or indirect contact with this victim. Brown was released under those conditions on August 1, 2016.
After being released on those conditions, Brown violated the conditions of his release by contacting and attempting to contact that woman over 100 times in violation of the Magistrate’s release order.

Here Are The Sales Projections For Gucci Mane's "Everybody Looking"
How much does Gucci's comeback measure up to in sales?
Gucci Mane has Everybody Looking with the release of his new album, but does he have everybody buying? Judging by the initial sales projections, he's got a fairly solid number of spectators opening their wallets.
According to Hits Daily Double, Guwop is set to move 69,000-74,000 units of his new album, including streams, making it 45-50,000 in pure sales. These days, that's certainly nothing to scoff at. It's within the same ballpark of his 2009 album, The State Vs. Radric Davis, which sold 89,000 first week (which, to be fair, was before streaming came into the equation). It's expected to debut at #2 behind (you guessed it) Drake's VIEWS.
Of course, we won't have any official figure until later in the week, so if you're looking for Wop to do numbers this week, make sure to grab the LP on iTunes.
New York Knicks Sign Amar'e Stoudemire So He Can Retire As A Knick
"Once a Knick always a Knick"
The New York Knicks have officially signed Amar'e Stoudemire, but only as a technicality so that he could retire as a member of the Knicks. Not the Phoenix Suns, the team that he was with for his first 8 seasons and experienced the best years of his career with. The New York Knicks.
The six-time All Star (five of which were as a member of the Suns) made the announcement today in which he said his heart has remained in the Big Apple and proclaimed, "Once a Knick, always a Knick."
Stoudemire played a crucial role in bringing the Knicks somewhat into relevance back in 2010 which led to them landing Carmelo Anthony via trade, but there's no denying that this is a very bizarre scenario considering most remember his best years as a dominant force for the Phoenix Suns.
Travis Scott Announces Release Date For "Birds In The Trap Sing McKnight"
Travis Scott's long awaited "Birds In The Trap Sing McKnight" drops next week.
Now that his deal with Apple Music is in the bag, it looks like Travis Scott’s long-awaited new album, Birds In The Trap Sing McKnight, is finally ready to see the light of day. On Tuesday night in NYC, Travis was performing a show at the Ford Amphitheatre in Coney Island where he decided to announce to the crowd the release date to his highly anticipated album.
According to Travis, Birds In The Trap Sing McKnight will be dropping August 5th, which happens to be next Friday. The album will be released via Apple Music and feature the lead single “Pick Up The Phone” with Young Thug & Quavo.
In addition to the announcement, Travis also shared a never-before-heard record off the album as well, which sounds absolutely fire from what we can hear.

Did Drake Take Shots At Tory Lanez On His "Summer Sixteen" Tour?
Kicking off the "Summer Sixteen" Tour, Drake wastes little time in sending some shots at Tory Lanez.
There looks to be a new chapter in the on-going feud between Toronto artists Drake & Tory Lanez. On Wednesday night, Drake’s “Summer Sixteen” Tour rolled into Austin, Texas, where the 6 God wasted little time in sending some subtle shots jabs at what people are believing is aimed at Tory Lanez.
To kick off the show, Drake performed his hit song “Summer Sixteen,” and decided to slightly alter the opening lyrics to his verse, rapping “All you boys doing fake controllas wanna be me a little?"
While the lyrics could be intended for Tyga, who recently released a “1 Of 1” song that sounds eerily similar to “Controlla,” it’s safe to say that’s not the case, and Drizzy had Tory on his mind when switching things up. Coincidentally, Tory just so happened to release a new remix over Drake’s “Controlla” a couple weeks ago, which has been receiving good feedback from fans. Add that to their already previous issues and you have yourself the latest chapter in the "New Toronto" saga.

The Game, Snoop Dogg & Minister Farrakhan Host Anti-Violence Gang Summit
Earlier today, The Game and Snoop Dogg hosted a citywide summit that encouraged gang members to unite against stopping violence within their communities.
Earlier this month, shortly after the police killings of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile, The Game and Snoop Dogg helped kickstart a campaign called H.U.N.T., which stands for "Hate Us Not Today." Their first initiative was to lead a peaceful march to the LAPD Headquarters, where both rappers met with top-ranking officials from the department. Earlier today, H.U.N.T. teamed up with the Nation of Islam and Minister Farrakhan to host a citywide forum that specifically called for the presence of gang leaders in the greater Los Angeles area. The goal of the summit was to unite men from opposing gangs in an effort to bring forth solutions about putting an end to violence within the black and brown communities.
The Game announced the event earlier today on his Instagram. He began the invitation by writing, "Los Angeles, on behalf of myself, Snoop Dogg, and the honorable Louis Farrakhan, I want to extend the invitation to all CRIPS, BLOODS, ESE's & all other gang members, major figures & GANG LEADERS from every hood in our city as well as the surrounding cities to our meeting 11am this morning."
Rae Sremmurd & Migos To Drop "Look Alive" Remix
Doesn't get more lit than this. Rae Sremmurd is about to drop the "Look Alive" remix, featuring the Migos.
Big-time remix incoming. The two waviest groups in the game, one a duo and one a trio -- both made up of blood relatives, are teaming up to drop a remix of one of the year's hottest club songs: "Look Alive." The track, released in April, is the third single off Rae Sremmurd's upcoming sophomore album, SremmLife 2. For the remix, brothers Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi have recruited the three cousins who make up the Migos. The club is hypnotized by a melodic spell any time the DJ drops "Look Alive." Now just imagine what'll happen with the addition of three saucy new verses from Quavo, Offset, and Takeoff. "Look Alive" is produced by Mike Will Made-It.
Boosie Badazz: Baton Rouge Violence Won't Stop Until Killer Cops Are Convicted
The Baton Rouge rap hero speaks on today's shooting that killed three police officers in his hometown. He fears that the violence will only continue until the officers who have killed black civilians are tried and convicted.
The city of Baton Rouge has been in anguish ever since the police killing of Alton Sterling. Today, the Louisiana capital was struck with more tragedy, as a gunman went on a rampage that killed three Baton Rouge police officers and injured three others. The suspect, whom has been identified as Gavin Eugene Long of Kansas City, Missouri, has been killed. He was an ex-Marine, and today was reportedly his 29th birthday. One of the biggest celebrities to come out of Baton Rouge, Boosie Badazz, has shared his thoughts on the madness that has recently transpired in his hometown.
Speaking to TMZ, Boosie explains how the killing of Alton Sterling, whose funeral was held yesterday, has struck anger in most everyone he has talked to in Baton Rouge, both young an old. He says that both police and civilians have found themselves in a precarious situation, and he believes that the climate will only continue to get more hostile until officers like those involved in the killing of Alton Sterling are held responsible and punished accordingly. "If that guy don't get indicted and sent to prison for life," says Boosie, "It's gonna be another one. It's gonna be another shooting."

Joe Budden Responds To Drake's Diss On French Montana's "No Shopping"
Joe Budden hits Drake with a crying Jordan meme after hearing the OVO boss' diss on French Montana's new single, "No Shopping."
As promised, tonight's episode of OVO Sound Radio included the premiere of French Montana's new Drake-featuring single: "No Shopping." News of the collab first broke in May, when French Montana shared a brief snippet of the song, during which Drake can be heard beginning his verse by rapping, "Pump, pump it up." The line was presumed to be a shot at Joe Budden, who had recently given VIEWS a decidedly negative review on his podcast. Now that the full version of "No Shopping" is here, it's clear that the "Pump It Up" reference was no accident. Much of Drake's verse is directed at Budden, whom he denounces as a one-hit wonder. "You let me turn into the n*gga that you almost was," he raps.
Drake doesn't mention Budden by name until toward the end of his verse, when he raps, "Last week, Budden runnin' in the room / This week sold 1.2." See the full lyrics of Drake's "No Shopping" verse at the bottom of the page.
Judging by his recent tweets and retweets, Budden has heard "No Shopping," and he has already proclaimed himself to be the victor of the beef, clearly feeling that Drake's bars on the new French Montana single don't stand up to the two diss tracks he has already put out, starting at the end of last month with "Making a Murderer" and then another one, "Wake," less than a week later.
Budden provided his first response to "No Shopping" by retweeting an image of a drained iPhone battery, suggesting that Drake's latest raps are the opposite of "Charged Up." He then posted another meme -- not exactly a creative one, but a successful effort nonetheless -- showing the crying Jordan face pasted onto the head of the OVO owl. Budden has since responded to a few of his followers who also agreed that Drake's "No Shopping" response was lackluster.
