YG Volunteers At Compton Food Drive Under Armed Guard

by

YG was seen helping prepare Thanksgiving packages at a food drive in Compton’s Campanella Park yesterday. However, also present were several armed guards carrying assault rifles. According to the event’s organizers, YG also helped provide power for things such as refrigeration units. His primary role appeared to be sorting through packaged hams and placing them in brown paper bags. However, his security team remained close by at all times. Despite the slightly tense situation, no untoward altercations have been reported.

YG has been serious about his safety since he was shot three times in 2015. He had been recording in Studio City when masked assailants broke into the studio and shot the rapper three times in the hip. Due to the rapper’s reluctance to cooperate with the police, his case remains solved. However, he would address the shooting a year later on his album Still Brazy. The track “Who Shot Me?” sees YG going over possible theories as to who his assailants were.

Elsewhere, he has been involved in something of an online feud. Last week, YG posted a random woman to his Instagram. That woman turned out to be the baby mama of Andre Lowe Jr, who promptly asked him to take down the picture. “THATS MY BABY MAMA TOO‼ Take this down NOW!!!” Lowe Jr demanded of YG. However, Lowe Jr, who appears to be an online comedian, took things a step further. He posted a comedic video doubling down on his demand for YG to remove the photo.

The rapper kind of responded to Lowe Jr. The rapper posted his car collection with the caption “🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴”. Of course, Lowe Jr was quick to further the beef by returning to the comments. Claiming he was “getting really angry”, he sounded off at the rapper. “BRUH! So you really not about to take it down????????? I’m Fina get mad,” Lowe Jr raged. Furthermore, Joey Bada$$ got in on the drama, primarily to clown on Lowe Jr. “He should’ve kept that sh-t to himself ! ain’t nobody know that was ya baby mama till you spilled the beans 😂.”

XXXTENTACION Trial: Drake’s Armed Guards Accused Of Blocking Subpoena

by

The defense team in XXXTENTACION’s murder trial accused Drake and his camp of blocking a subpoena. Moreover, codefendant Dedrick Williams’ lawyer, Mauricio Padilla, filed a motion in Broward accusing Drizzy’s guards of dismissing the court order. According to the Miami Herald, the Friday (February 17) motion also includes a request for the rapper to attend a deposition to detail his involvement in X’s death. While many in the court seem to dismiss his supposed involvement, the defense team is adamant about needing his testimony. However, Broward Judge Michael Usan nulled an order on Tuesday (February 14) that would’ve called Drake for a virtual deposition on February 24.

Furthermore, the “Nice For What” artist faced contempt in court if the order remained and he didn’t show. Still, Padilla retained the ability to subpoena Drake after Judge Usan’s order. As such, he issued yet another motion asking authorities to require a deposition from the rapper. Also, he wants him held in contempt of court if he misses it. Even though a lack of evidence suggests otherwise, the attorney maintained that Drake had a hand in X’s death.

“The court explained the importance of balancing the rights of the defendants to investigate this first degree murder case properly with Aubrey Drake Graham’s privacy issues,” the motion read. “It was clear by the court’s ruling that he expected for the parties to work together and that despite entering the order vacating, that he expected the deposition to take place.” In addition, Padilla stated that Drake’s attorney, Bradford Cohen, refused to accept a subpoena for him to testify. Moreover, he claimed that armed guards at Drake’s California home prevented a servicer from handing the order.

Meanwhile, Cohen stated that Padilla exhibited a “lack of foundation” in his efforts. Furthermore, Law & Crime footage from Monday court proceedings (February 13) illuminates the process. For example, he explained that Padilla sent Drake an unsealed Zoom link and didn’t detail its conduction. Therefore, Cohen labeled the subpoena as “procedurally defective.” Whether Judge Usan accepts Padilla’s new motion on Tuesday (February 21) remains unknown. Regardless, come back to HNHH for the latest updates on Drake in the XXXTENTACION murder trial.
