50 Cent Mic Throw 911 Audio Emerges Online

by

The audio from the 911 call made after 50 Cent threw a microphone into the crowd at a recent concert has been released by TMZ. While the conversation between the dispatcher and the friend of radio host Bryhana Monegain is fairly short, there is one notable detail. After asking if Monegain is conscious, the dispatcher asks “Who’s performing tonight?” before appearing to pull up the concert on his monitor. The call ends with the dispatcher telling the caller that emergency services are on the way.

Monegain, who works for Power 106, suffered numerous lacerations to the head and face after being struck by the microphone at LA’s Crypto.com Arena. Cent had reportedly thrown the faulty microphone away in anger. The incident occurred during an issue-riddled show as part of his Final Lap tour. However, Cent’s attorneys denied any malicious intent. “Let’s be very clear, as I told LAPD this afternoon, my client, Curtis [50 Cent], would never intentionally strike anyone with a microphone,” attorney Scott Leemon confirmed to the media. “Anyone saying something different doesn’t have all the facts and is misinformed.”

Despite his attorney’s claims, things aren’t looking too good for Fif. According to TMZ, the LAPD has passed their battery investigation over to the LA District Attorney. Furthermore, Cent could be looking at felony charges if the DA decides to pursue the case. The legal fallout from the microphone incident is a developing story and we’ll have any updates as they emerge.

However, it’s not the only legal issue that has plagued Cent’s tour. While performing in Edmonton earlier this week, Fif’s opening act was escorted out of the venue by police. According to the Edmonton PD, Pressa was removed due to “security concerns” over the rapper’s alleged gang connections. According to law enforcement, Pressa is a known threat to them and has links to the Brothers Keepers organization. Fif has not released a statement about the incident. Furthermore, the Final Lap tour is currently scheduled to continue until December.

Cardi B Leverages Mic Throwing Incident Into Shady “Housewives” Tagline

by

With the recent release of “Bongos” ft. Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi B’s doing the media rounds, which seems like a promising sign she could be readying her sophomore album. However, this also presents an opportunity for Cardi to address some of her recent viral moments. During her appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, Cardi B not only reflected on a hypothetical return to reality TV but also mentioned the viral mic-throwing incident at Drai’s Beachclub in Las Vegas this summer. 

As Cohen and Cardi B discussed The Real Housewives, the television personality asked the rapper what her tagline would be. And without prompt, Cardi B slyly nodded at the infamous moment that nearly led to criminal charges. “The only thing I throw harder than mics is shade,” she told Cohen. While hilarious, Cardi was initially listed as a suspect in the battery case. Fortunately for her, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department decided not to press charges after an investigation into the incident.

Could Cardi B Return To Reality TV?

Cardi B got her start in the entertainment industry through reality TV. Although she became a beloved cast member of Love & Hip-Hop, the show ultimately jumpstarted her career as a rapper. However, would it be possible to see her back in a reality television format? She explained to Cohen that she’s a bit hesitant these days, especially considering how easily she could get canceled. “Yeah, I wouldn’t mind but I kind of mind,” Cardi said. “I would get canceled every day.”

It seems unlikely that we’ll see her and Offset put their private life on display, especially considering how their relationship has often felt like a timeline from a reality show. From allegations of cheating to filing for divorce, the couple have undoubtedly gone through it in the public eye without hiring cameras to follow them. Check out Cardi B’s clip from Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen above and sound off with your thoughts in the comment section below. Would you tune into a reality TV show starring Cardi and Offset?
