NBA YoungBoy’s New Mugshot Surfaces Online Following His Latest Arrest

April 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

NBA YoungBoy has had his fair share of legal issues in the past, and unfortunately, they don’t show signs of slowing down anytime soon. Earlier this week, it was revealed that the rapper was arrested at his Utah home, which he’s dubbed Gravedigger Mountain. He’s been on house arrest there, awaiting trial for a federal gun charge, for two years.

YB was booked for “patterns of unlawful activity, procuring or attempting to procure drugs, identity fraud, forgery, possession of controlled substances, and possession of a dangerous weapon.” He was taken into custody yesterday (April 16) following a search of his property. It remains unclear exactly what he’s accused of. Either way, the arrest could certainly threaten his ability to await trial at home.

Amid all of the chatter and questions remaining about YB’s legal drama, his latest mugshot has surfaced online. In the photo, the 24-year-old looks relatively unbothered, though it’s hard to tell by the low-quality image. Regardless, he’s got a lot to worry about these days, particularly if he’s found guilty of what he’s being accused of. This isn’t the first time his house arrest privileges were threatened either. At the end of February, prosecutors filed a request to address his allegedly “non-compliant behavior,” accusing him of doing drugs despite strict orders not to. It’s not been revealed exactly which substances YB was accused of using, however, he allegedly told supervising officers he had “no intentions” of stopping.

According to reports, NBA YoungBoy is currently being held without bond. This means that he’ll remain behind bars, at least for the time being. What do you think of NBA YoungBoy’s latest arrest? Do you think he’ll be able to find a way out of jail? What about his mugshot surfacing online? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Lil Zay Osama Arrested For Gun Possession & Robbery: Report

December 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

According to new reports, Lil Zay Osama has been arrested for gun possession and robbery. Unfortunately for him, this is the latest in a series of arrests for similar charges, ones that have plagued his life and career for a long time. It’s important to note that much of this is due to the systemic conditions and circumstances that he faced while growing up in Chicago. Nevertheless, the specific charges include theft of over $10,000 in stolen goods, although the arrest report indicates that it doesn’t reach the $100,000 mark. In addition, this document details the specific firearm charges that he faces.

Furthermore, authorities took custody of Lil Zay Osama for possessing a loaded machine gun on his person and in the passenger compartment of his vehicle. Not only that, but the report also suggests that he modified the gun in some way that left a defaced serial number. It’s unclear what the “Ain’t On S**t” rapper’s status or condition is, as well as whether he’d be able to bond or bail out. Surely within the coming days and weeks, we should get new updates on this case and what other implications it could yield for him.

Back in October of last year, Lil Zay Osama spoke on another arrest he faced and the circumstances behind his escape of it. “I’m On A 1Million Dollar Bail Rn,” he wrote on Instagram. “Ima Beat This Up Like Rocky Thanks to my lawyer @dawnmflorio [heart emoji] We Locked In 5L. It’s cr*zy i thought people would say free me hoping i do better and wish the best. Yall really in the comments and on blogs saying 20 and 30 plus ima get and yall hope i get time im dum and etc. Don’t believe everything u hear i been out here i know how to move dont believe everything u hear.”

Meanwhile, these issues even prompted the 26-year-old to call for help from other famous rap figures. Perhaps he will do the same this time around and expose his situation publicly in more elaborate ways. Hopefully this is the last arrest, and one that marks the end of his legal troubles.

DaBaby Recalls Taking A Gun Charge For His Friend

November 18, 2023 by newhiphopnews

During a recent appearance on Shannon Sharpe’s Club Shay Shay podcast, DaBaby opened up about taking a gun charge for his friend. According to him, he was in a car with the friend in question when they got pulled over, and authorities found a firearm in the vehicle. He claims that police assumed the weapon belonged to him, but it was actually his friend’s. Instead of telling police the truth, however, the friend let DaBaby take the charge.

For obvious reasons, this sparked a great deal of tension in their relationship. DaBaby claims that for a while, he couldn’t even “stomach” being in the same room as his friend. He eventually forgave him for the debacle for his own sake, as the friend was more like family to him. “It was so left field,” he recalled, calling it “a lesson [he] needed to learn.”

DaBaby Has Since Forgiven His Friend

He says that while he’s since forgiven the friend, he now “moves differently.” Nowadays, the rapper claims to avoid situations where he’s in cars with people he doesn’t trust. This wasn’t the only incident that changed his perspective, however. Elsewhere in the episode, DaBaby spoke on his infamous homophobic rant at Rolling Loud 2021.

He explained that the fallout from the incident taught him more about himself, and resulted in him finding a better headspace. “I don’t regret anything that I done been through,” he described. “It feels so good to be able say that and mean it. I done probably said that before but I ain’t mean it … I really feel like that’s a blessing in disguise at this point in my life and I just came to that realization in the past two weeks.” What do you think of DaBaby forgiving his friend for allowing him to take his gun charge? Would you have forgiven him? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on HNHH for more updates.

Suge Knight Claims He Took The Fall For Dr. Dre’s Gun Charge

November 16, 2023 by newhiphopnews

For fans of 90s hip-hop, Collect Call With Suge Knight has been a revelation. The podcast is only two episodes into its run but there’s already been numerous major reveals. Much of it has had to do with Tupac, which makes sense with his alleged murderer’s trial currently occupying headlines this year. One of the first attention grabbing stories Suge told related to Tupac and Warren G. After Warren claimed he played a role in getting Pac out of prison, Suge refuted the story and claimed that the two never even liked each other in the first place.

In the recently released second episode, Suge once again spoke on the process of getting Pac out of prison. This time he revealed the identity of a mystery woman who called him every single day to advocate for Tupac. Her name is Keisha, and she played a crucial role in setting the events of Tupac’s career in motion. If it weren’t for Keisha, you guys wouldn’t have heard All Eyez On Me or all the other hits he did,” Suge says during the podcast. But his newest revelation is about another artist. Check out the newest episode of Collect Call below.

Suge Knight On Taking A Gun Charge For Dr. Dre

In the new episode, Suge discusses taking the fall for Dr. Dre. “I stopped Dre from getting a lot of time for beating up a gang of b*tches and all the shit he was doing that made me… you know,” he begins. “I gave him the business manager number. The guy calls the business manager. The business manager wires the money for Dre’s guns to a guy who will give him the guns. A year or two later, on my birthday, they arrested me. The feds.”

Ultimately while Suge had the option to let Dre face his own consequences, he ended up taking the fall. “I gave him the business manager number. The guy calls the business manager. The business manager wires the money for Dre’s guns to a guy who will give him the guns. A year or two later, on my birthday, they arrested me. The feds.” What do you think of Suge Knight taking the heat for Dr. Dre on a gun charge so he could keep making music? Let us know in the comment section below.
