AHH Stray News: Katt Williams Arrested, Lil Scrappy Beefs With Promoters, Bay Bay Gets Chained

Katt Williams


(AllHipHop News) Comedian Katt Williams cannot avoid legal troubles. Williams was arrested for assault in Oakland last night (November 14). The incident occurred at a club named Kimballs Carnival, which is in East Oakland. Police were called to the scene and arrested Katt Williams, although he has yet to be officially charged. The incident is one in a string of events involving Katt Williams over the past 30 days. In October, Katt Williams was arrested for pulling a gun on actor Faizon Love in Hollywood, while his assistant filed a $5 million lawsuit against him, claiming he assaulted her and punched her in the face on October 6.
Atlanta rapper Lil Scrappy narrowly avoided being arrested on Sunday, after a botched concert in Louisville, Kentucky. Lil Scrappy was supposed to perform at a nightclub named Club Vizion, but when he arrived at the venue, a dispute arose with the promoter, who could not pay the rapper. According to TMZ.com, Lil Scrappy agreed to do a meet and greet with fans, since the owner of the club paid him a small amount of money. When he went back to the hotel, his reservation had been canceled. According to reports, police were called in to assist Lil Scrappy’s removal, while the rapper claims he left voluntarily.

On Set of Skylar Grey and Eminem’s ‘C’mon Let Me Ride’ Video

[THISIS50]







Skylar Grey heads to the backwoods of Detroit in the video for her first single “C’mon Let Me Ride” featuring Eminem. The singer-songwriter has revealed photos from the shoot, which took place last month in Em’s hometown.
Skylar shows a sexier side, wearing a bra and trucker hat as she lounges in a chair. Some of the residents are seen gathering around a BBQ and grilling a squirrel, while one older lady throws up the middle finger.
The song, produced by Alex Da Kid, samples Queen’s “Bicycle Race,” and will hit iTunes on December 11. “The song is something totally unexpected from me,” said Skylar.“Sometimes I can’t even believe that it came out of my mouth. But it did. And soon, it will be in your ears.”
Eminem has signed on to executive produce Skylar’s forthcoming debut Don’t Look Down, due next spring.

I’m not sure how this is going to work out, because Nicki has gone so far in to the mainstream of America that she’s pop as in popular. So, the latest rumor is that Nicki Minaj is looking to get back into the street side of Hip-Hop! Remember when she won everybody over with the BET Cypher? Yeah, she got gangsta with that!




 Anyway, what do you think that she is going to return to hardcore rap!? And do you think she can? Maybe she can link back up with Fendi or something. Sike

 

Non Hip-Hop Rumors: Lauryn Hill Responds To Wyclef! Shyne Responds To The Game!

[allhiphop]

Lauryn Hill


Lauryn Hill addresses Wyclef without addressing Wyclef. Clef’s book revealed a lot, but Lauryn’s not falling for it. She’s responding without responding!
When you are on the other side of liberation, just make sure you are not late. Be careful how you judge, there is a lot of deception out there. A lot of misunderstanding out there. A lot of miscommunication out there. A lot of false information out there.  And notice, out of all the people who talk talk talk, who’s the silent one.  There’s a lot of chat, but me….
And you know why? Let me tell you why I don’t chat back.  Because I know that my brothers and my sisters are often times pawns in a bigger scheme so when they, under pressure, attack me, I love them still.  It’s called the high road. Try taking it sometimes.
I’m not going to play my hand like the suppressive system would have me play my hand. Because I know [about] the oppression that took place in Haiti, and Jamaica, and America, and Africa and Europe. So just be patient. The truth always rises to the top and especially, all you black folks out there who have had black mothers who carried you through thick and thin, when the system wanted to call them crazy, just remember that…
You know I know I’m not crazy, that’s why I can use the word so freely. Crazy like a fox? Ahead of the curve. People don’t like people that’s ahead of the curve but unfortunately that’s not my problem.


 SHYNE RESPONSE TO THE GAME! I kinda yawned, but Shyne responds to The Game.

 

Hip-Hop Rumors: Floyd Mayweather Gets New Rapper, Dr. Dre’s Old Rapper?

50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather Jr.


 


This isn’t really a rumor, but I thought I’d throw it out there. Do any of you remember Hayes? It was a big deal a couple years ago, because both Dr. Dre and Timbaland signed him or something weird. Anyway, it was a big deal, but eventually it fizzled out. These days it seems like he’s rolling with the Money Team! He and Floyd have done some rapping and so now the word is Earl Hayes is now the latest signee by Floyd Mayweather. You think he will be used in the ongoing entertainment battle with 50 Cent?
