Floyd Mayweather Gets Sued For Allegedly Slapping Exotic Dancer During Dispute

by

An exotic dancer has come forward with some upsetting accusations against Floyd Mayweather, whose Las Vegas gentleman’s club she allegedly used to work at. According to TMZ, Jasmine Woodward filed a lawsuit against the boxer earlier this week. She alleges that the two of them got into an argument at the venue back in April and that things allegedly turned physical.

In the suit, Woodward states that after she finished one of her shifts, she approached Mayweather to ask about the club’s alleged “failure to pay her for the shifts that she worked earlier in the weekend.” She claims that this upset him. Allegedly, he “slapped her in the face in front of other dancers and customers on the floor of the club.”

Woodward says she then broke down in tears and headed toward the club’s locker room area. She alleges that Mayweather followed her and that the two of them ended up having a discussion. Woodward claims to have told him that she “had a problem” with how he allegedly slapped her. At this point, she alleges that he told her “she could not ‘take a joke.’” Ultimately, Woodward alleges that she was fired from the club.

Another woman named Brittany Strauss has also joined Woodward a plaintiff in the lawsuit. On top of the alleged assault, the two of them allege that the club failed to pay them minimum wages and withheld some of their tips. They’re suing Mayweather and his sister Deltricia Howard, seeking backpay and unspecified damages. A rep for Mayweather, Felton Newell, told The Athletic this week that he “vehemently denies the allegations.” What do you think of Floyd Mayweather getting sued for allegedly slapping an exotic dancer in the face?

Benny The Butcher & 38 Spesh Recruit Busta Rhymes For “Jesus Arms” Two Pack

by

Benny The Butcher and 38 Spesh may have never been on the same label, but they sure do have an unbreakable connection. Their history spans several years, with countless grimy and hard-hitting collaborations. Sometimes, they come together with joint projects, and they have been doing that since 2008, if you can believe that. It all started with Cocaine Cowboys, released under T.C.F. Music Group. Typically, when you see that label, –run by Spesh– Benny’s Black Soprano Family, LLC is usually attached to their collab tapes.

What we are trying to say is that these two have another record coming out soon and it’s a sequel. On October 18, STABBED & SHOT 2 will hit DSPs over six years after the original Stabbed & Shot. This will just be another day at the office for Spesh and Butch, as both prolific MCs have multiple LPs out in 2024. For the former, this will bring his total to five, and three for the latter. To promote STABBED & SHOT 2, they are here with a two-pack featuring “Jesus Arms” and “Brick Specials”. The former features Busta Rhymes, who is one of nine different guests on this upcoming 16-song set. Check out the tracks with the links below.

“Jesus Arms” & “Brick Specials” – Benny The Butcher, 38 Spesh, & Busta Rhymes

Quotable Lyrics From “Jesus Arms”:

B****, we back to bang ’em with heat ’til somebody start to partially bleed
They blood’ll rain on the hoard, watch all the rest take heed
Always come to offer the cure with the best of the mead
Purer than the holy water that be blessin’ your seed
Higher than a hiker that’s climbin’ a mountain of weed
Blessed like it’s God in the flesh, you’re not in my league

Benzino Shares His Shocking Take On Eminem Becoming A Grandfather

by

When we look back at the pantheon of rap beefs, few will likely rank as simultaneously absurd and heated as Eminem versus Benzino. We’re sure that you don’t need much of an update, but their reignited spat this year resulted in a tearful admission from the latter that he wants to end this feud with the Detroit legend. However, The Source‘s former co-owner still threw some shots after that vulnerable moment, so it’s a pendulum swing. This time around, fans wondered how he would react to the news that Marshall Mathers’ daughter Hailie Jade is pregnant, and we now have an answer.

“Somebody found out that they’re going to be a grandfather and the irony is…” Benzino’s Instagram Live remarks on began. “Even though he said, ‘Nobody wants to hear their grandfather rap,’ I still wanna send out a congratulations to Eminem and his daughter Hailie on the news that she is about to give birth and he’s about to be a grandad. I think this is a good time to put this behind us and let’s try to enjoy life and try to make some type of statement right now. I’m not doing this for no joke. I truly want to congratulate him and his daughter.

Benzino Reacts To Eminem Becoming A Grandfather

“I’m not one yet but I’m sure that day will come and I’ll be proud just like he is,” Benzino continued concerning Hailie Jade and Eminem’s news. “With all the craziness that’s going on, we need some peace, we need a statement so we can move forward. There it is. Congratulations to Eminem and Hailie, and let me know what the baby’s gonna be ’cause I definitely will send a gift for the baby shower, man. I’m sure you’ll make a great grandfather. Love, bro.”

“I believe I could face-to-face battle with him and I’m willing to do so,” Benzino previously said of Eminem – or at least, that’s what he expressed most recently back in April. “I’m willing to challenge him right here on TMZ. A face-to-face battle, three rounds, and I believe I could take him.” Whether or not that happens, he’s happy for the Mathers family.

Jack Harlow’s First-Ever Sneaker, The New Balance 1906R ‘Rose Runner,’ Is Out Now

Jack Harlow first started his partnership with New Balance back in 2021, with a joking anti-endorsement of the sneaker brand’s 11th version of the 1080 running shoe (“I hate running,” he says in response to the upbeat voiceover). The ongoing endorsement deal would find Harlow playing pickup with Clippers star Kawhi Leonard (not so unrealistic, it turns out) and throwing together special edition colorways of the brand’s staples, but today, his first-ever collaboration with New Balance hits the shelves.

The 1906R “Rose Runner” is a modern update of a classic silhouette, with Harlow taking control first the first time of aspects like materials and construction, rather than just colors. The color and floral print gives the “Rose Runner” its name, while the Kentucky native adds some dashes of playful luxury with velvet on the tongue and laces. They also come with custom packaging and will retail for $180 on NewBalance.com and at select New Balance stores. You can find more information here. The shoes go live at 9 am PT/ 12 pm ET. Jack also shared an energetic preview video on Instagram.

Harlow hasn’t put out much new music lately, but he has had a busy year, as his long-awaited film with Matt Damon and Casey Affleck, The Instigators, made its premiere on Apple TV, Jack joined the ownership group of Racing Louisville FC, his local NWSL team, and his late 2023 hit, “Lovin On Me,” reached No. 1 to start the year.

by

Last month, Rich Homie Quan passed away at his Atlanta home at the age of 34. The tragic and untimely loss has since had the hip-hop community in shambles. Earlier this week, the Fulton County Medical Examiner ruled his death an accidental overdose. According to TMZ, fentanyl, alprazolam, codeine, and promethazine were found in his system.

During an interview last month, Rich Homie Quan’s father Corey Lamar revealed what exactly he was working on when he passed away. He shared that the late rapper had various high-profile collaborations in the works, a full-length project on the way, and more. “Quan has probably 2000 unreleased songs,” he added at the time. “He has a ton of music that the fans deserve to hear.”
