A judge formally shot down Eric Holder’s bid to reduce his conviction from first-degree murder to a lesser charge.
Holder and his attorney appeared in court on Monday for his sentencing. However, the judge laid down the law when it came down to a motion requesting a reduction of the first-degree murder conviction to second-degree murder or voluntary manslaughter, per Fox11.
In addition to trying to reduce the charge, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge H. Clay Jacke also shot down the possibility of a new trial. Holder’s attorney previously filed a motion for a new trial. The judge postponed Holder’s sentencing date until Feb. 22nd, 2022.
In July, a jury found Holder guilty of first-degree murder in the death of Nipsey Hussle. In addition, the jury also convicted Holder of two counts of attempted voluntary manslaughter, one count of possession of a firearm by a felon, and assault with a firearm.
During the trial, Holder’s attorney explained that his client shot Nipsey Hussle during a “heat of passion.” If you recall, the incident came about after the California rapper labeled him a snitch publicly. Holder’s lawyer explained that manslaughter charges were more suitable rather than first-degree murder. He said that Holder’s actions were a result of “impulse and rashness.”
Still, a jury found Holder guilty of intentionally using a firearm to cause great bodily harm against the victim.
The death of Nipsey Hussle rippled across the globe. The rapper died on March 31st, 2019 after he was struck by bullets. A medical examiner that testified in the trial said that a bullet ripped through Nipsey’s right abdomen and severed his spinal cord. If he were to survive the gunshot, Nipsey would’ve been paralyzed in his lower body.
We’ll keep you posted on any further updates surrounding Eric Holder’s sentencing for the murder of Nipsey Hussle.
Some romances are all about the slow burn, but others move fast, seemingly coming together at the speed of light. Previously, a rumoured new couple moving at such a pace was Emily Ratajkowski and Pete Davidson. However, things seem to have fizzled there, and the headlines have moved on to Lori Harvey and Damson Indris.
The model’s most recent high-profile relationship was with Black Panther actor Michael B. Jordan. The two were undeniably serious and even seemed to be on the path toward a proposal. Ultimately, though, they decided to go their separate ways without much of an explanation offered.
For his part, the Snowfall actor stirred up online buzz by spending time with Saweetie earlier this year. At the time, he posted a romantic video of the California rap diva playing piano, causing the internet to speculate about what else they’ve been doing together.
Rumours of Harvey and Idris spending time together only started making rounds this month. In a recent report from Media Take Out, a source says that she makes the men in her life sign an NDA with a $1M penalty. Additionally, it named the British star as one of the men she’s been romantically linked to as of late.
Not long after that news went viral, the pair all but made it official by stepping out together in West Hollywood.
They attempted to be discrete by having security escort them to and from separately. Regardless, the blogs got a hold of videos showing the celebs entering the same Escalade at different times.
Following her weekend date night, Harvey had some celebrating to do with the launch of her Essence magazine cover. Throughout the accompanying interview, she talks a lot specifically about wanting to distance herself from being known as someone’s girlfriend all the time.
“Because I’ve been so quiet this whole time, the Internet has created narratives for me,” the 26-year-old said. “People are just taking whatever bits of gossip and rumours that they have, and then creating that as a truth. In reality, the majority of the time it’s so far from the truth. So, it can be tough.”
At the time of the conversation, she was seemingly happily single. “I feel like it’s always been about me attached to something or someone,” Harvey told the outlet. “This time, it’s about me. Self-love, self-care, self-reflection. I’m being a little selfish right now. It’s my time.”
However, she undoubtedly caught Idris’ eye, as he was quick to show love to one of the photographs from her shoot. On Monday (December 19), he reposted directly from her account, leaving a trail of fire emojis beneath to show his approval.

It comes as no surprise that good friends SZA and Lizzo have a few would-be hits in the vault. We’re days into celebrating SOS, SZA’s sophomore effort that has reportedly earned her another No. 1 album. The singer fuses several genres, including R&B and Rock, and it’s a sound her fans are praising worldwide. Rolling Stone reports SZA’s alternative SOS track “F2F” features a “hidden” addition by Lizzo, who apparently just happened to be in the studio as SZA was recording.
The outlet stated that Lizzo “also did some writing” on the song’s bridge. Producer-engineer-songwriter Rob Bisel explained how the unplanned moment came to be while speaking with the Rolling Stone Music Now podcast. “We just happened to have that one pulled up the day that that Lizzo was there,” he said.
“They were putting some energy into it,” songwriter-producer Carter Lang also revealed. “That was the thing that I feel sparked SZA really taking it into her own world and figuring out how it can be part of her story in an authentic way and not like, ‘Hey, I just did a rock joint.’”
Bisel adds that “there’s definitely a handful [of tracks with Lizzo].” It’s a revelation that should get fans excited. “I don’t want to incriminate myself here, but there’s some stuff floating around for sure.”
Meanwhile, SZA is thrilled to collaborate with her friend who she says understands her on a deeper level. “We just have so much fun together,” said SZA of Lizzo. “And I feel like she gets me.”
“She’s another person who has hella [wide] music tastes and doesn’t fit in anybody’s box of anything. She makes it seem like she doesn’t even care, like she just does whatever she wants. And I just love being with her, just as a friend and hanging out. So whenever she comes to a studio, I just feel like, ‘Let’s drop into some bullsh*t.’”
The singer also discussed fusing Rock into SOS, explaining that it developed organically.
“I made a whole bunch of rock songs. They were all terrible in terms of, like, saying bad things about what I’ve done to people,” she said. “But it sounded cool, and I think that’s what all those songs are really about. Just being super honest and letting that out. But yeah, I love making those type of songs….For sure on this album. I made a whole bunch of versions of me.”
“I look at everything when it’s done and then, and I’m like, ‘OK, this is who I’ve been for the last five years. And I don’t know if it makes any sense or if it goes together, but this is what’s hot.’”
What do you think of SOS? Was it worth the wait?

The Jan. 6 select committee has formally voted to accuse Donald Trump of four crimes. The committee argued that the former President provided “aid and comfort” to the mob attacking the Capitol in 2021.
They also stated that Trump could be charged with obstructing Congress’ Jan. 6 joint session, conspiracy to make false statements to the National Archives, and conspiracy to defraud the United States.
“Faith in our system is the foundation of American democracy. If the faith is broken, so is our democracy,” select panel chair Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) said. “Donald Trump broke that faith. He lost the 2020 election and knew it, but he chose to try to stay in office through a multi-part scheme. This can never happen again.”
The final meeting went down on the two-year anniversary of Trump’s Dec. 19, 2020 tweet, in which he called for a “wild” protest against the election results. The committee says the post was a key inflection point for the ensuing riot. Later Trump urged his supporters to “fight like hell” to convince lawmakers to vote against certifying Joe Biden’s victory.
Despite the committee’s decision, they have no power to prosecute Trump, as that will come down to the Department of Justice.
“I’m convinced that now that our committee has released our information, they will take the information that we’ve shared with them and proceed with the investigation,” Thompson also said of the DOJ’s decision.

Deion Sanders is moving on from Jackson State University as he recently accepted a position with Colorado. However, Sanders got to coach one last game with JSU on Saturday. This was for the Celebration Bowl which is a matchup between two HBCU champions. Jackson State got to take on North Carolina Central, and it was an epic matchup.
Unfortunately for Sanders and his team, they ended up losing by a score of 41-34. This loss ultimately came in overtime, although it was a hard-fought game by his team. Either way, Sanders will be disappointed to finish his JSU career with one final loss.
One of the most memorable plays from the game took place in overtime. While down by seven, Hayden Hagler of JSU dropped what would have been the game-tying TD pass. After Hagler missed his mark, the Tigers went on to lose. It was a heartbreaking moment for the young player, who received death threats after the game.
With Hagler feeling the weight of the moment, he couldn’t help but let out his emotion in the locker room. Hagler was sitting at his locker crying when Sanders came over and offered some words of encouragement. Coach Prime noted that the game isn’t all on Hagler and that the team as a whole needed to be better.
This was yet another demonstration of just how much Sanders cares about his players. While he might be going to a different school, there is no doubt that he cares a great deal about these kids. Overall, he has been a net benefit to them.

Ashanti’s figure has been the talk of the town this month, especially after she posted a bikini-clad thirst trap to keep the masses warm this winter. Most recently, it was Wendy Williams’ ex, Kevin Hunter, who had some things to say about the R&B vocalist and her bodacious body.
Over the weekend, the former television executive reposted a throwback photo of the Murder Inc. artist on his Story. In the obviously dated image, she wears a big smile on her face, huge gold hoops, a pink graphic tee, and skinny jeans. Seeing as she’s much younger in the photo, her shape looks noticeably different compared to now.
According to Hunter, this can only mean one thing – that she underwent plastic surgery. “Ion know… That’s alotta weight gain since 2007,” he wrote in his post. “No hate queen, but BODY DONE???”
Ashanti’s fans lashed out at the father of one with a quickness. “Job Kevin… Get a job,” one person wrote in @theshaderoom’s comments. “It’s been a lot of cheating since 2007 too, but what do I know,” someone else added, bringing light to the OG hater’s own flaws.
“As a man, why were you even worried about it?” yet another person pressed him. “If you expect someone from 2007 to look the same in 2022 I question your level of intelligence,” one last comment reads.
After getting wind of his critics’ thoughts, Hunter had more to say. “Look I think @ashanti is a BEAUTIFUL BLACK WOMAN!” he began.
“I have posted a NUMBER of positive posts that no one ever runs with. In this day and time, it’s not uncommon for people to have surgery… My question was for my page. I’m not a blogger nor am I trying to be or disrespect her in any way.”
Hunter says he “salutes” Ashanti and her “natural assets.” He added, “[I] was merely posing a question,” before going on to praise “all her accomplishments.”
“Errbody CALM DOWN,” the 50-year-old ended his rant.
Do you think Kevin Hunter is out of pocket for his question about Ashanti? Let us know below, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.
