GloRilla’s Former Bodyguard Fired For Not Beating Up Person Who Threw Water

by

GloRilla’s former bodyguard said that she fired him for not going back to beat up the person who threw water at her at an Oakland venue. Moreover, he maintained that he did his job in the moment: protecting Glo and making sure that she got out of there safely. However, the Memphis MC apparently told him to go back to the venue and make a vengeful attack on the culprit. “I did my job, it’s complete,” he said during a video rant. To be fair, he said that he would’ve been much harsher to the crowd if they actually posed a threat or attacked them outright.

However, he stood by the fact that the person who threw the water was throwing it from the sides in the crowd. As such, he didn’t have much reason to get confrontational, as they weren’t directly in the rapper’s face. In fact, the former bodyguard said that he wouldn’t risk losing his license or catching an assault charge for petty and unwarranted retaliation. It’s not like Glo was scared or directly in danger, and the bodyguard defended the fact that he did what he had to do and nothing more.

GloRilla’s Former Bodyguard Speaks On Why He Was Fired

Moreover, the incident stemmed from miscommunication between the “F.N.F.” star’s camp, the venue promoters, and the crowd. According to the promoters, they paid GloRilla to perform, not host or do a walk-through, and her team agreed. As such, the venue promoted the event as a performance, not just any old appearance. However, both Yo Gotti and GloRilla clapped back and said that they didn’t come to such an agreement. Not only that, but they claimed that the promoters did not pay them enough for an actual performance.

“$30K to perform,” the CMG wrote alongside laughing emojis on Instagram. “[You] must [have] booked Lil Glo, NOT Big Glo #CMG.” Furthermore, Glo took to Twitter to voice her frustration. “Ain’t no ho spit on s**t!!!!!! Ask dat ho how ha face feel doe. No way you think I’m performing when you paid for a hosting, crazy tail self.” If the bodyguard’s story is correct, one thing’s for sure: going back to beat a disappointed fan up would’ve been an even bigger mess to clean up. Regardless, stick around on HNHH for the latest news on GloRilla.

Diddy’s Ex-Bodyguard Accuses Snoop Dogg Of Lying About Relationship With Biggie

by

Diddy’s former bodyguard just accused Snoop Dogg of inflating the extent of his friendship with Biggie Smalls. Moreover, Gene Deal inquired as to why Snoop’s supposedly tight relationships with the New York rapper, as well as Tupac, weren’t highly publicized until after their tragic passing. “That’s something that sounds good for the media,” Deal declared of Snoop’s stories of friendship with the two. “You know, ‘I’m the peacemaker. I’m the one that’s showing love. I’m the one that’s out here when everybody else is dead, wishing that I coulda did something to put the s**t together.’

“It wasn’t all that love until ‘Pac was dead,” he went on in the interview with The Art Of Dialogue. “Wasn’t Big out in California three, four weeks and Snoop never saw him? Snoop never came and smoked nothing wit’ him. Snoop never came and ate nothing with him. But it was a lot of love? Come on, man.” Since the loss of the Brooklyn legend in 1997, the Dogg Pound leader repeatedly spoke on their relationship and mutual respect. For example, in an interview with the Rap Radar Podcast in 2018, Snoop recounted when he and Biggie discussed Tupac’s death. After a shooting happened while Tha Dogg Pound filmed the “NY, NY” music video in Brooklyn, Snoop felt Big was responsible. Moreover, they didn’t take action due to East Coast and West Coast tensions. However, the two rappers ran into each other in Atlanta and came to an understanding.

“It’s just me and him, one on one,” the Long Beach legend elaborated. “And he giving me the rundown about how much he loved Tupac and he didn’t wanna see cuz die. And a lot of shit that he said and did, he was wrong for. He just was apologizing like a man, to me. Just getting an understanding on what he did, ’cause I never tripped on him for what he did. That was a Dogg Pound video, that wasn’t a Tupac video. And we got shot at, and the direct shot came from him. But nobody got hit so we let it go. So with him apologizing to me, we became friends again.”

Meanwhile, Deal said that he couldn’t corroborate whether that conversation actually happened, as he wasn’t present. Still, he raised eyebrows at Snoop meeting Big in another city when he claimed they never linked in Los Angeles. “I can see you in Atlanta,” Deal said, “but I can’t see you in California in my own hometown? Huh? I’m so gangsta, I can come to your hotel room by myself in Atlanta. But in California, I can’t come and see you? Alright.” Check out the interview clip above and return to HNHH for the latest news in hip-hop history.

Drake’s Ex-Bodyguard Opens Up About Working With Him

by

Drake’s ex-bodyguard Mike Van Wyck recently opened up about his working relationship with him and what he was like. Moreover, Mike recently appeared on Money Buys Happiness and spoke on working with the 6 God for six years. Overall, he expressed that the biggest lesson he learned was an admiration for the Canadian star’s insane work ethic.

“I thought I had work ethic and I do,” Van Wyck expressed. “I guess if you ask people about me, I do work hard, I don’t really take days off and kinda of just grind all the time. But, to see a guy at that level — watch them go out night after night — especially on tours and perform, it’s robotic. In a very positive way. Not in a negative way.

“It’s engrained,” he said of Drake’s diligence. “This showmanship. This person, the person becomes on stage and how they perform from show to show — you could probably run the shows overlapping each other and it would look the same. There is that much consistency to it and you’d figure like someone that’s doing that kind of work would have a night off.

“I’m watching this person do this every night and to see the looks on these faces and to understand that level of work ethic and that level of consistency is pretty wild to see, in person” he concluded.

Meanwhile, he also shared a bit of backstory on how he first met the 36-year-old. “I had a connection to the group through 40. So, 40 and me went to the same camp when we were younger. We didn’t hang out at camp because we had different crews, but we knew who each other were. When I was just living my life and I would see stuff about Drake coming up. They would always mention this 40 guy and I was like that’s f***ing Noah.”

Also, Van Wyck expressed that Drizzy’s “always been a very supportive person in my life — supported me no matter what. He’s a really good dude.”

Still, what did you think of Drake’s ex-bodyguard’s reflections on their time together? Whatever the case, let us know in the comments and check out the full interview down below. Also, as always, come back to HNHH for more curious stories and moments of gratitude in the hip-hop game.
