Kevin Hart is Recovering from a Successful Back Surgery Following Major Car Accident

Kevin Hart is unbothered about his ex-wife, Torrei Hart, joining Katt Williams on tour. Catching up with TMZ, Hart delivered his reaction.

“My success is my success. I want everybody to win, I love everybody,” Hart said. “I want everybody to win, I hope the tour is great.”

Torrei Hart’s announcement follows Hart and Williams recently exchanging words, following the latter’s appearance on Club Shay Shay. Torrei Hart, also a comedian, revealed she would join Williams on select dates with more on the way.

“Come see me live with my good friend @kattwilliams on the Dark Matter Tour,” Torrei wrote on Instagram.

During NBA Unplugged, which he hosts alongside his Plastic Cup Boyz on ESPN, Hart got some jokes in while watching the New York Knicks and Philadelphia 76ers.

“Another fun fact about the New York Knicks, I don’t know if you guys know this, but Katt Williams bought the Knicks, and it’s rumored that he took the Knicks back, returned them with a receipt,” Hart said. “He’s the first person to ever do that. He bought them for 15 days and returned them. That’s another fun fact about the New York Knicks.”

He added a couple more jokes about Williams’ claims about reading 3,000 books in a year at age six and stating he runs a 4.1 40-yard-dash time.

Comedian Katt WIlliams really shook the room among rappers and comedians alike on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast, which has prompted almost all the people mentioned to respond, including famous funnyman Kevin Hart.

Katt suggested that Hart is an “industry plant,” asking, “Has there ever been a comedian to get their own sitcom and a starring role in a movie like Hart did with ‘Soul Plane’ on their first year in Los Angeles?”

Hart responded to Williams on X, saying, “Gotta get that anger up outcha champ….It’s honestly sad. In the meantime…. Please enjoy MY MOVIE TRAILER to my next film ‘LIFT’ which will be dropping on @netflix in 8 days!!!!! There is a moment in the trailer where @gugumbatharaw says ‘They Really Love You’….I now know she’s talking about ‘Katt’ Mark yo calendars world!!!! This one is SPECIAL!!!!”

Teyana Taylor Accuses Iman Shumpert of Endangering Children in Nasty Custody Battle

Tensions are escalating in the custody battle between singer Teyana Taylor and former NBA player Iman Shumpert, with Taylor accusing Shumpert of neglecting the safety of their children. The divorce proceedings, already marked by legal disputes, have taken a new turn as Taylor alleges Shumpert’s parenting choices pose risks to their two kids.

In legal documents obtained by TMZ, Taylor doesn’t hold back in criticizing Shumpert’s parenting skills. She claims that Shumpert consistently fails to meet the basic needs of their children, even neglecting to provide them with proper meals while they are in his care.

One of the most serious allegations is Taylor’s assertion that Shumpert smokes marijuana around the children and is sometimes under the influence when taking care of them. The documents outline instances where Taylor believes Shumpert’s actions have jeopardized the safety of their kids.

One specific incident mentioned in the legal filing involves Shumpert reportedly putting the children in a rideshare in Chicago, having them dropped off at the United Center alone, while he opted for a private driver to take him to the arena.

Summing up her concerns, Taylor claims that Shumpert “consistently demonstrates a clear disregard for the safety of the minor children.” These allegations come in response to Shumpert’s denial of Taylor’s previous claim that he made her feel endangered during their time together.

As the divorce proceedings unfold, the public watches closely as this once-united couple faces off in a heated custody battle that sheds light on their differing views on parenting and child safety.

Tupac Murder Suspect Keefe D Granted $750K Bail

Several news reports have confirmed that the man Las Vegas Police say is responsible for the shooting death of the late cultural icon Tupac Shakur has been granted bail and is able to walk out of jail until his criminal trial.

Attorneys for Duane “Keefe D” Davis were able to convince a judge at a court hearing on Tuesday that Davis was not a danger to society or a flight risk if he were released on bail until his trial. Davis, 60, was first indicted for the death of Shakur this past September and has remined behind bars ever since.

Davis has bragged via interviews that he was in the car that let off the shots that killed Shakur while riding in the passenger seat of Suge Knight’s BMW following the Mike Tyson vs. Bruce Seldon fight at the MGM Las Vegas on September 7, 1996. Even though Davis was admittedly not the trigger man, he is the only survivor from 27 years ago that prosecutors are able to charge for the murder.

Davis’ lawyers argued that if he was so dangerous, why did it take authorities almost 30 years to bring him in, even though it has been wel documented that Davis was present in the car that killed ‘Pac in a drive-by shooting. The lawyers also held fast to the not guilty plea, saying he only said all that stuff about Pac’s murder for entertainment/monetary gain, but prosecutors pushed back, arguing this guy was a cold-blooded killer and absolutely should not be out on the streets.

Davis’ $750K bail isn’t a small amount and unless Davis can get someone tp post that type of bread, he will remain behind bars until the trial. If he is released, he will be ordered to wear an ankle monitor while on home confinement.

On this date in 1995, Steele and Tek aka Smif N Wessun of the legendary Boot Camp Clik released their debut album Dah Shinin’ on the ultra-indie imprint, Wreck Records.

This was also the sophomore effort of the Boot Camp Clik, which exposed the skills of more of the artists that were heard on Black Moon’s debut project, Enta Da Stage. Tracks such as “Cession at da Doghillee” and “Sound Bwoy Bureill” introduced members of Heltah Skeltah, the duo that included the late Sean Price, as well as the Originoo Gunn Clappaz(O.G.C.), which completed the epic Brooklyn rap collective.

With in-house production courtesy of Da Beatminerz, the Roy Ayers’ Ubiquity-Esque feel that was captured on the album’s cover can definitely be felt through the verses over the haunting tracks. Even though the album never reached gold status in terms of sales, Dah Shinin’ is undoubtedly one of the albums that define its era.

Ice Spice Delivers Her New EP 'Like..?' | The Source

Ice Spice continues to prove why she’s one of the hottest female rappers out, even deemed one of The Source’s Top 5 Breakout Artists of last year.

Now, the “Munch” rapper has released a new snippet of a unreleasing song, seemingly putting her own spin on J. Cole’s standout fart lyric. On his song “Dollar and a Dream III” released back in 2011, the Dreamville founder spit: “I let you feel like you the shit but boy, you can’t out-fart me.”

Now, a snippet from Ice Spice has surfaced online, as she’s heard rapping: “You think you the shit? Bitch, you not even the fart.” The bars are over a beat that sounds like a video game before transitioning to Jersey club, created by Ice Spice’s go-to producer RiotUSA.

Of course, the fart lyric sparked a slew of both positive and negative feedback, with many wondering if the song was real or fake. 

One Twitter user even stated: “This ain’t real right? My ears are bleeding.”

Another wrote: “Fast food processed music for a fast food processed generation.”

In any case, Ice Spice has been locked in the studio working on her debut album. From her previous records, fans can probably expect yet another project chock full of bangers!

[WATCH] Defendant Attacker Faces Same Las Vegas Judge For Sentencing

by
judge

In a shocking turn of events, Deobra Redden, the individual who attacked Las Vegas Judge Mary Kay Holthus during his sentencing hearing last week, was once again in front of her for a separate case on Monday, January 8.

Entering the courtroom surrounded by marshals, Redden appeared in restraints, wearing a spit mask, shackles on his wrists and legs, and orange mitts on his hands. Despite his aggressive actions in the previous encounter, he reportedly smiled at family members as he shuffled into court.

Screen Shot 2024 01 09 at 10.50.48 AM

This time, Judge Holthus sentenced Redden to 19 to 48 months in prison for a 2022 attack involving a baseball bat. The defendant now faces 13 additional charges stemming from the assault on the judge.

The previous attack occurred after Judge Holthus denied Redden’s request for probation due to his history of violent offenses. Unshackled at the time, Redden leaped over the judge’s bench, attempting to put her in a headlock. Quick intervention by the judge’s law clerk and a marshal prevented further harm.

Holthus, who suffered a minor head injury, returned to work the next day. Despite the incident, she made it clear that Redden should be brought back to her courtroom for sentencing by any means necessary.

Redden’s reported statement to jail guards, citing the judge as “evil,” raises concerns about his mental health. His attorney previously disclosed that he had been diagnosed with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.

The case underscores the challenges faced by the legal system in managing individuals with mental health issues and the importance of courtroom security protocols.

Watch his new sentencing below.
