Body Cam Footage From Rich Homie Quan Investigation Released Online

October 8, 2024 by newhiphopnews

At the beginning of the month, Rich Homie Quan’s official cause of death was revealed. TMZ spoke with the Fulton County Medical Examiner in Georgia they ruled his death as an accidental overdose. There was a combination of fentanyl, alprazolam, codeine, and promethazine found, but no signs of trauma. Prior to this, reports said that food was in his mouth while he was out cold on the kitchen floor. His brother, Andre Munford, put him on the couch around 3 a.m. Then, later that same morning girlfriend Amber Williams woke up and saw him still in the same position and did not check to see what was wrong until about 11 a.m.

That was when she dialed 911. Police arrived at the scene and Quan was then transferred to Grady Hospital in Atlanta which is where he tragically passed away. Speaking of the authorities though, body cam footage from the day that the rapper died (September 5) has begun to surface online, according to XXL. In the video, which you can view below sees the responders question Williams and Munford about what transpired and how they handled the situation.

Quan’s brother seemed to be able to answer all of the officer’s questions without much hesitation. However, Williams was more emotional and did get pretty choked up. It’s a pretty hard watch at points, so if you do get sensitive easily, we encourage you to skip it if that’s the case. GOSSIP OF THE CITY says that the rapper’s brother took some pictures of him with the food in his mouth. Additionally, the police told Amber that his eyes were still open while they were taking Quan to the hospital. Furthermore, police were suspicious of the situation and because of this, they contacted homicide.

What are your thoughts on the body cam footage from Rich Homie Quan’s investigation getting released? Do you think this is something that should or shouldn’t have been made public? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Rich Homie Quan.

Playboi Carti Tries To Explain Himself In Wild Body Cam Footage Of Traffic Stop

August 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Playboi Carti is as mysterious as ever these days, which means that seeing him in mundane situations we can relate to is all the more bizarre. Moreover, new footage recently emerged of a 2022 traffic stop in which a police officer pulled him and Ken Carson over for going 84MPH in a 35 zone. In the clip below, Iggy Azalea’s ex explained that they were “trying to get straight back home” with a female in the backseat who spoke unintelligibly. Then, he stepped out of the vehicle to continue the processing, and eventually got back to his vehicle. All in all, not the worst celebrity pull-over we’ve seen.

Elsewhere, though, Playboi Carti is catching flack instead of engagement due to his high placement in Complex‘s best Atlanta rappers list (at number 12). “I can’t get jiggy with that,” B. Dot expressed on Way Up With Angela Yee. “Playboi Carti couldn’t rap a GIF. Have you ever heard Playboi Carti’s music? He raps in like Batman sound effects. He sucks. Absolutely, he’s terrible. Am I alone in here? Okay. Nah, he’s terrible.”

Playboi Carti’s 2022 Traffic Stop

But B. Dot isn’t the only rap-adjacent commentator with some critical smoke for Playboi Carti, although this next example is much more personal. You may recall that Adin Ross invited him for a livestream which transpired for all of a couple of minutes before the rapper dipped, allegedly finessing him out of millions of dollars. In fact, “King Vamp” even seemed to reference this on a recently leaked song, as he seemed to include a call between him and Ross on the intro. We doubt that this particular version of the song will ever come out, but a bag is a bag, so who knows what happens?

But beyond all this criticism and speeding incidents, Playboi Carti fans remain very excited for what he’s got for fans. In fact, this might relate not just to his long-awaited album, but to some other collaborative and performance updates. The “FE!N” duo teased a “OOCACTUS” concert, and Carti and Travis Scott electrified die-hards with this hint. For the sake of preserving surprises, we wouldn’t put any money on this actually going down, but fans can dream…

Body-Cam Footage Of Sonya Massey’s Killing Sparks Outrage, Leading To Impassioned Statement From Joe Biden

July 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Body-cam footage from the death of Sonya Massey has been released to the public, showing Illinois sheriff’s deputy Sean Grayson firing three shots at her head. The tragic incident occurred at her home, where she called police about a possible break-in. While Grayson and his partner didn’t find any signs of an intruder, they spoke with Massey for a time. During that conversation, the disgraced officer noticed a pot of boiling water on the stove. He moved away and asked her to remove it. “Where you going?” she asked in response. Grayson answered: “Away from your hot steaming water.”

Here, Massey remarks: “Away from the hot steaming water? Oh, I’ll rebuke you in the name of Jesus.” Grayson then threatens to “f*cking shoot you right in your f*cking face.” Despite Massey apologizing several times, Grayson then shoots her in the head. He has been arrested and charged with first-degree murder, aggravated battery with a firearm, and official misconduct, and is being held without bond. It is extremely rare for police officers to be charged with murder with the last time coming in 2020 following the death of George Floyd. Civil rights attorney Ben Crump is representing the family of Massey.

Kamala Harris Speaks After Joe Biden’s Decision To Drop Out

US Vice President Kamala Harris speaks during an event honoring National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) championship teams from the 2023-2024 season, on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, DC on July 22, 2024. Joe Biden on July 21, 2024, dropped out of the US presidential election and endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic Party’s new nominee, in a stunning move that upends an already extraordinary 2024 race for the White House. Biden, 81, said he was acting in the “best interest of my party and the country” by bowing to weeks of pressure after a disastrous June debate against Donald Trump stoked worries about his age and mental fitness.

Shortly after authorities released the body-cam footage, President Joe Biden released the following statement: “Sonya Massey, a beloved mother, friend, daughter, and young Black woman, should be alive today. Sonya called the police because she was concerned about a potential intruder. When we call for help, all of us as Americans – regardless of who we are or where we live – should be able to do so without fearing for our lives. Sonya’s death at the hands of a responding officer reminds us that all too often Black Americans face fears for their safety in ways many of the rest of us do not.”

Young Chop Seemingly Fights A Fellow Jail Inmate In New Body Cam Footage

June 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Young Chop has been in jail for a while now, and while we’re sure that a lot of conflicts emerge in there, this is the first one that we know of publicly. Moreover, new body cam footage leaked online from April 10, and seemingly shows him fighting with another inmate in a cell. The Chicago drill producer apparently swung at his fellow inmate from behind, and they then got into a one-on-one scuffle that the officer in question attempted to halt. It’s very unclear what prompted this or whether or not this is part of a larger issue or altercation, but either way, it looks like he wasn’t able to sneak a swing on his colleague successfully.

Furthermore, Young Chop has unfortunately faced a lot of difficulties and obstacles in the 2020s decade so far. For one, he had to reckon with this jail time, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic and for multiple charges including probation violation and animal cruelty. Another reason is that Chop sadly lost his brother Johnny May Cash to violence, which followed some possible tension with other individuals from the city. Hopefully this documented fight was just a one-off incident and he doesn’t have to deal with that as he heals from other circumstances.

However, hopefully there are brighter days ahead for Young Chop, who has still been able to occasionally drop new music during his time in jail. For example, he released the mixtape Under Surveillance back in 2021 as he dealt with some of these issues, bolstered by singles and hot collabs. While it’s been pretty radio silent since, it’s also very understandable that the focus is more on his physical and criminal obstacles. After all, things seem much bigger than what any one artist is able to fix or mitigate.

Meanwhile, we wonder if Young Chop’s animosity towards Kanye West remains or if prison has changed his assessment a bit. Regardless, he surely developed some very interesting perspectives on the world and how it changed since his legal issues began. Maybe that’s what prompted this prison fight in the first place. We’ll probably never know for sure, but hopefully his eventual freedom will show this new mentality.

Diddy Associate Body Cam Arrest Footage Leaks Online

March 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

It’s been a flurry of breaking news stories for Diddy all week. While the biggest is likely the fact that two of his properties were raided by the federal government, his plane was also intercepted while in Miami. The rapper was reportedly traveling with his own children and various members of his entourage. One of the members in that entourage, Brendan Paul, was arrested by police. He was hit with two charges, possession of cocaine and possession of suspected marijuana candy both of which are felonies in Florida.

Now just a few days later body cam footage of the arrest has made it’s way online. TMZ shared the footage which features Paul complying with officers and saying absolutely nothing. Afterwards he was taken to jail but has since been released on bond. It’s another surprising piece of footage from the Diddy drama this week. Just yesterday footage of one of his residencies after the police raid made its way online. The clip showed the contents of dozens of drawers and cabinets thrown onto the floor. Check out the newly released body cam footage below.

Body Cam Footage Of Diddy Associate Brendan Paul’s Arrest

Diddy himself has been relatively quiet throughout this busy week so far. Footage leaked yesterday of him pacing around Miami airport, seemingly with a lot on his mind. Subsequently, he made a statement via a lawyer calling the raids a gross over-use of military force. It’s unclear at the moment if they found what they were expecting to in the raid. But they did reportedly take electronics from the residences that are likely to be searched as part of the investigation. They also announced that the raids were in connection with an investigation into sex trafficking.

What do you think of the newly released body cam footage of one of Diddy’s associates being arrested at the Miami airport? Do you think the federal government investigation will result in the rap mogul being arrested as well? Let us know in the comment section below.

Young Thug Dares Police Officer To Race Him In New Body Cam Footage: Watch

February 24, 2024 by newhiphopnews

While Young Thug is in the middle of his RICO trial with the rest of YSL, we recently got footage of a much less serious legal hiccup. Moreover, body cam footage from 2021 surfaced online of a police officer pulling him over for speeding in his home city of Atlanta. During their interactions, Thugger pleads with the cop to not give him a ticket because he just got his license back and can’t deal with another speed bump. In fact, he even challenges the officer to a foot race, but he stands his ground and explains to him why this is important. Overall, it’s an incredibly regular conversation to have, and it’s nice to see that this wasn’t confrontational, presumptuous, or aggressive in any manner.

Furthermore, rappers in Young Thug’s position -– or frankly, Black U.S. citizens on a daily basis -– are far too often the subject of discrimination and undue persecution in the nation’s many facets of the legal and criminal system. Of course, the law is the law and accountability must stand, but it’s not hard to see when folks take it too far. One example of this is how the Atlanta trap pioneer is held to a double standard when it comes to his “gang ties” that are part of the image behind his music. Snoop Dogg can hit the Super Bowl halftime show stage while wearing Crip paisley; why is Thug villainized for what so many others do?

Regardless, the last update that we got concerning his innocence or guilt in the YSL RICO case was a recorded 911 call. The most recent hearing in Young Thug’s trial played this audio, in which the caller claims that he is the shooter in an incident. It’s unclear how much prosecutors or the defense will pursue this specific case or if it will simply be general reference for the larger proceeding. Either way, there are a lot of conflicting narratives at play.

Meanwhile, the “Metro Spider” MC continues to drop new music, such as his Strick and James Blake collab “KISSES MAKE SURE.” Even though it’s no replacement for his freedom, at least listeners can support him and put even a little money in his circle’s pockets while he can’t benefit from streams and engagement himself. We’ll see what the next few months hold in these regards. On that note, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Young Thug and the YSL RICO trial.

Playboi Carti Arrested For Speeding In 2022 In Newly Leaked Footage: Watch

January 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

While Playboi Carti doesn’t have anywhere near the level of legal troubles as some rappers out there, he’s still had his issues. One of which was a 2022 arrest after being pulled over for speeding. But he wasn’t just driving a few over the speed limit. According to the officer who pulled him over he was going 133mph down a stretch of road with a 55mph speed limit. The extremely fast speed probably has something to do with why the incident resulted in his arrest.

Now nearly two years later, body cam video of the incident has surfaced online. In the video, Carti attempts to justify his driving but the officer who pulled him over isn’t having it. Surprisingly, fans in the comments seem to understand just how dangerous Carti’s behavior was. “Lmao can’t even be mad at the cop n*gga was gunning it,” one of the top comments on the post reads. Others came through with jokes about the whole situation. “Should’ve used the baby voice he would’ve walked,” one fan jokes in reference to Carti’s notorious high-pitched rapping. Check out the full video and variety of fan reactions below.

Recently, Playboi Carti has been dropping a string of new songs on YouTube that has fans hyped for a potential new era. One of those elements is supposed to be a tour but it’s been repeatedly delayed. The most recent delay came just this week and while there wasn’t an official explanation provided fans think they know what’s up. Homixide Gang are supposed to be included on the tour alongside Ken Carson, Destroy Lonely, and Carti himself. But they’re currently wrapped up in a lawsuit with Live Nation spawning from an on-stage incident last year that would make touring difficult.

Playboi Carti hasn’t confirmed when he is planning on releasing a new album but fans are loving the new singles. His last record came out more than 3 years ago on Christmas Day 2020. What do you think of the newly unearthed video of Playboi Carti being arrested? Do you think the police were right to arrest him for driving so fast? Let us know in the comment section below.

NBA Youngboy Claims He Would Terrorize Fellow Inmates In Old Body Cam Footage

October 5, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Rappers and celebrities often have to do various things to stay out of the general prison population while incarcerated. That certainly seemed to be the case for NBA Youngboy who took a pretty hardline approach. Old body cam footage from a previous stint in jail sees the rapper claiming that he would “terrorize” other inmates. It seems like an obvious attempt to but put into protective custody. The footage comes from all the way back in 2019 but only recently made its way into the public eye.

Fans in the comments had mixed reactions to the footage. “Notice how he isn’t acting gay to be put away from other inmates,” one of the top comments reads. That’s in reference to video of King Von that emerged earlier this year from a prior stint he had in jail. Other comments talk about how he appears to be under the influence of something. “n*gga actin like he off sum,” one suggests. Others claim that the whole endeavor was pointless saying “Man that n*gga knew he wasn’t finna be in the same room as no other inmates . He’s too high profile.” Check out the video and various fan responses below.

Last week, J. Cole teamed up with Lil Yachty for a bizarre new song called “The Secret Recipe.” As soon as the track was released fans identified some lyrics that they thought was a shot aimed at Youngboy. Since then, his manager has claimed that the lyrics aren’t in fact intended as a diss.

NBA Youngboy also just released a new single of his own. Despite having three albums under his belt already in 2023 alone he released a new single. In the track he does his best to make sure fans don’t forget him and it’s fittingly called “Heard Of Me.” What do you think of the new video of NBA Youngboy trying to get put into protective custody?

6ix9ine Is Confused In New Body Cam Footage Of His Arrest

August 17, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It looks like 6ix9ine was in more legal trouble than people believed, at least based on new body cam footage that surfaced of a recent arrest. Moreover, the rainbow-haired rapper himself looked and sounded quite confused in the clip as an officer cuffed him. Readers might be thinking that this traffic stop relates to his recent incarceration for failing to show up in court amid his credit card debt case. However, the officers mention a traffic warrant for driving an unregistered vehicle, but one of them does also mention to him that Tekashi didn’t pay his fees or show up in court. As such, the situation is a bit hazy, but given his recent video working out at a Planet Fitness after getting beat up at an LA Fitness, it seems like he was able to handle both.

Regardless, the footage shows officers asking 6ix9ine for his license and registration as he holds a large stack of documents in the driver’s seat. “I don’t know which is which,” the New York artist says. Then, he starts to question the officers about getting sent to jail over a traffic warrant. In footage from within the police car, the “Shaka Laka” provocateur says that all his cars are under his brother’s name, and that he already handled registration.

Furthermore, in the timestamp of the video, you can see that this took place on August 9 of this year. That lines up closely with 6ix9ine’s arrest for the court no-show in his credit card debt case, so maybe it’s a case of conflicting reports. Still, that’s probably going to be something he will continue to deal with in the future. After all, when you’re dealing with American Express, you can’t escape easily.

Meanwhile, considering the 27-year-old’s massive success, paying six figures in that case shouldn’t be too much of a headache. Anything could be the case, but nothing’s stopped him from boasting and trolling online before. We’ll see if the next few days or weeks hold more legal developments for the controversial star. On that note, come back to HNHH for the latest news and updates on 6ix9ine.

Joseline Hernandez’s Arrest Body Cam Footage Shows Her Shoving Cops & Using Hate Speech

July 11, 2023 by newhiphopnews

There was excitement in the air when Floyd Mayweather and John Gotti III came together for a brawl last month. Of course, the professional fighters weren’t the only ones in the building who put their hands on each other. Reality stars Joseline Hernandez and Big Lex also got into an altercation that resulted in the former being arrested on battery charges. Today (July 11), TMZ released body cam footage from the moment police attempted to detain her. Needless to say, it doesn’t paint Joseline in a very flattering light.

The Puerto Rican’s anger was still running rampant by the time Sunrise PD authorities arrived. Hernandez was quick to go after them with verbal and physical attacks. She made it abundantly clear that she wasn’t comfortable with being touched by any white men. From there, things only became more chaotic. The 36-year-old threw her phone at a man in the room attempting to calm her down. It’s been speculated that he’s the same voice who called Lex a “d*mb a** b**ch” when her and Joseline’s spat broke out.

Joseline Hernandez Lashes Out at Cops After Battery Arrest

As cops stepped in to de-escalate that drama, the multi-talent shoved one of them. In response, the other responding officers in the room took Hernandez to the ground as she continued to yell troubling homophobic and racial messages at them. The mother of one was eventually handcuffed, though she still resisted being taken away. This ultimately left police with no choice but to pick her up by the legs to carry her out.

Social media users have had plenty to say about the tense video, many of them speculating that the socialite’s inability to handle her liquor (or perhaps other substances) leads her to act out in anger. “This is not SOBER behaviour , and let’s not pretend it is,” one concerned person wrote in @theshaderoom’s comments. “Once she points that finger at you, get outta dodge ,” another laughed. If you’ve ever wanted to learn more about the bold personality that is Joseline Hernandez, check out our full report at the link below.
