Migos member Quavo has been identified as being aboard a yacht in Miami that was targeted in a thwarted robbery over the weekend.

Reports from the Miami Beach Police Dept. stated that two men on the yacht were angry at the captain once he announced that their rental time was up. Cornell A. Whitfield and Anteneh A. Workeneh allegedly told the captain that they would kill him and throw him in the water. Workeneh and Whitfield are also accused of taking the captain’s cell phone and wallet.

Page Six reported that Quavo, who was aboard the yacht with a group of women, was seen with his hands zip-tied behind his back. He was eventually let go by police, however, no arrests were made.

According to the same report, “[Police] let [Quavo] go later and he and his entourage left in these big black SUVs with blacked-out windows.”

Rowdy Rebel Refutes Claims He Was “Robbed”

by

An individual took to Instagram this week to flex a number of jewelry items he had reportedly taken from Rowdy Rebel. This led to rumors that Rebel had been robbed. Now this article is going to use some seemingly interchangeable language that we’ll address upfront. The rumors from this Instagram post were that Rowdy Rebel was robbed – i.e. he was mugged or had the items taken from his person.

Rebel has since addressed these rumors after being tagged numerous times on social media. While Rebel did not deny that he was the victim of theft, he refuted claims that he had been robbed. “Rob what!” Rebel said on his Instagram story. “N***a stole out my sleep.” Thus, as Rebel claims, he was stolen from, not robbed. This distinguishment being that to steal implies having the items taken indirectly. Rob comes from the French word rober as well as the old English word reave. It means to plunder or take by force. Meanwhile, steal has a variety of etymological sources. However, a primary one would be the Old English word “stelan”, which means “to carry off clandestinely.”

Of course, Rebel is very famous for his jewlery collection. The rapper flexed his collection to GQ back in 2021. It’s a massive collection that includes $30,000 worth of rings, a $60,000 watch, and a $100,000 glow-in-the-dark pendant. According to the Instagram post from the alleged thief, the watch and the pendant, which had been designed by Rebel’s son, were the items that had been stolen.

Of course, he’s not the only rapper whose been the victim of a jewelry theft in recent weeks. In June, DJ Drama was robbed while in Toronto. While the thiefs made off his chain, they appeared to shout out Drake. However, Drama reportedly chose to settle things peacefully and pay the thieves $120,000 to get the chains back. However, that number should be taken with a grain of salt. The figure was given in a comment on a DJ Akademiks post by Top5, a Canadian rapper currently in jail on a murder charge. You might remember him as the guy who recently got in trouble for filming a music video while incarcerated. Regardless, it remains to be seen what steps Rebel may be taken to ensure the safe return of his jewelry.

DJ Drama’s Toronto Trip Cost $120K Extra To Return Stolen Chains, Top5 Claims

by

Hip-hop heads were nothing short of shocked to hear about DJ Drama’s rumoured Toronto robbery this past weekend. The Generation Now founder has yet to address the gossip himself. However, a local rapper, Top5, shared a video showing several men in ski masks proudly waving what appears to be Drama’s jewelry around while shouting out Drake. Of course, the Gangsta Grillz creative and the Canadian have resolved their beef. Still, the incident still must’ve bruised his ego, nonetheless.

A few days after the news broke, it was revealed earlier today (June 13) that Drama’s chains are on their way back to him. It remains unclear how the negotiations worked out, or how peaceful they were. According to an Instagram comment from Top5 on DJ Akademiks’ post, the price he paid to have the ice back in his possession wasn’t a small one. “$120K for the chain back, that’s a good deal 😂😂,” he wrote.

A post shared by DJ Akademiks (@akademiks)

The caption of the Toronto lyricist’s original post read, “For all you that don’t post my music, and don’t play my music 2023 your chains are getting snatched. @djdrama come get [your] chain back lil boy.” Clearly, there’s beef between the pair, though we’re unsure why Drama wouldn’t play Top5’s music. As you may recall, he was previously charged with first-degree murder in late 2021 after reportedly seeking revenge for his brother’s killing.

This obviously tarnished his reputation, and things have been relatively quiet on his end since. His last single, “401” with Pressa, arrived in 2022, as did “I Miss My Dawgs” featuring Iceman and Rico Bank$. We’re unsure if he plans to drop anything in 2023, or if he’ll stick to snatching chains instead. Do you think $120K is an outrageous demand for DJ Drama to get his jewelry back? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

DJ Drama Robbed In Toronto By Drake Fans: Report

by

It’s been a tough few weeks for DJ Drama. He was not only called “a goofy over these h*es” by Meek Mill, but also was the victim of an alleged robbery in Toronto. As AllHipHop reports, the Generation Now co-founder was visiting the 6ix when he failed to “check,” ultimately resulting in his chain seemingly being snatched. It seems that moment wasn’t caught on camera. Nevertheless, the thieves have since posted up on social media. In a viral video, they’re seen showing off the loot they claim to have taken from around Drama’s neck this weekend.

Adding insult to injury, the men praise Drake (who has past beef with the Philly native) in the obnoxious video. “That’s what you f*cking get for not checking in,” they indirectly tell Drama. “Shout out boy Drizzy, eh. Triple Gs, you know how we rock.” Neither the Canadian nor his former enemy have addressed the situation on Twitter. Still, users are certainly having a field day laughing at the situation.

It’s worth noting that Drake and the Gangsta Grillz creative previously put an end to their feud. Hip-hop heads quickly realized this when they appeared on Jack Harlow’s “Churchill Downs” together. Things first became tense between the pair in 2015, when rumours stated that Drama is the one who told Meek Mill about his “R.I.C.O” collaborator apparently using a ghostwriter to pen the fan favourite. The incident put a major rift between Drake and the “Litty” rapper, though they later settled their differences publicly.

In other news, Champagne Papi hasn’t entirely managed to escape being embarrassed online lately either. During a live stream with Stake and Kick earlier this month, not only did the father of one’s credit card decline but he was also turned into a meme thanks to his questionable yellow nail polish. See for yourself at the link below, and make sure to check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.

by

Blueface and Chrisean Rock have been in the news consistently over the past few months. Overall, their relationship is on the rocks, and it is all happening while Rock is pregnant. Moreover, it seems like Blue has rekindled his relationship with his first BM, Jaidyn Alexis. They have been going on a slew of dates, and she even picked him up from jail the other day. As for why Blue was in jail? Well, he had been arrested on felony robbery charges. This all took place while he was in court for a hearing on his attempted murder charge.

Ultimately, this arrest and subsequent charge was a bit of a surprise. However, TMZ now has some reporting on what allegedly went down. As the report details, Blueface, Chrisean Rock, and some friends were at the Palms Hotel in Las Vegas. While out and about, a woman came up to them and told Chrisean how much of a fan she is. Although, she also made it a point to exclaim that she didn’t like Blue. From there, Chrisean allegedly punched her and Blueface allegedly swiped her phone and mocked her.

The woman also says she got her phone from Blueface, but things eventually turned a whole lot uglier as she was punched again before falling to the ground. Additionally, she alleges that Blue kicked her while she was down. Hotel surveillance footage seemingly showcases what went down here. Despite all of this, Chrisean Rock has not been arrested for the alleged incident. Meanwhile, Blueface has already been charged all while posting bail.

Overall, this is a situation that is still very much developing right now. Although, it is clear that the drama involving the rapper and his ex, won’t be dying down anytime soon.

Blueface Arrested For Alleged Robbery: Report

by

Blueface has found himself in some trouble with the law. According to TMZ, the rapper was arrested on Wednesday and charged with felony robbery. Overall, this news comes as a huge surprise, especially when you find out that he was in court at the time of the arrest. Although this seems bizarre, there is a reason for this. As the outlet reports, the artist was in court due to his attempted murder case. Last year, Blue was arrested and charged for allegedly shooting at a man while out at a nightclub.

As we have reported previously, Blueface denied any wrongdoing in the case. However, he still has to go through preliminary hearings on the matter. That said, this new arrest certainly interrupted those proceedings. At the time of writing this, TMZ and others aren’t sure why the rapper was arrested. Of course, he has been charged with robbery, however, there are no details on the alleged incident and when it may have happened. As it turns out, even Blue’s attorneys are confused by all of this.

Shannon Sharpe Reveals House Burglary

by

Shannon Sharpe has been in the news lately as he beefed with former first-overall NBA pick Kwame Brown. The beef came about after Brown blasted LeBron’s playoff performance. “I have never seen a guy of your caliber, supposed caliber, you don’t even get a shot off?” Brown said at one point in his seven-minute rant. “You’re probably the best scorer in the game, you got all these points. But you were looking for a bailout, again.” At another point in the video, Brown argues that “Throughout history, the little nerds are gonna look up your statline and say ‘He’s gotta be the greatest player to ever play the game’. And people who actually play are gonna know that is bullshit.”

Sharpe, a well-known fan of LeBron, shot back on UNDISPUTED, “Of all the people, [Brown] should never ever question anyone’s greatness,” Sharpe said on Undefeated. “You on the Mount Rushmore of all busts….you a joke real talk.” Brown shot back, telling Sharpe that he was a “guest in the house of basketball.” However, TMZ has revealed that Sharpe has been dealing with something else in the past few days.

Sharpe’s House Robbed

According to TMZ, Sharpe’s house in LA was robbed last week, with over $1 million’s worth of bags, jewelry, and watches. Sharpe is known for his sharp looks and luxury tastes. Law enforcement told TMZ that the robbery happened on May 19 sometime between 7pm and 9:30pm. Sharpe was away from the house at the time. However, Sharpe didn’t call the police until he returned from dinner and noticed something amiss.

In an intriguing twist, the police have launched a deeper investigation as they found no evidence of forced entry. While no arrests have been made, Sharpe has fronted a $50,000 reward for any information that could help the case. Furthermore, law enforcement has declined to share anything more about the leads they are currently pursuing.

YK Osiris Threatens Reginae Carter’s Ex Following Robbery

by

On May 8, Lil Wayne’s daughter Reginae Carter took to Twitter to share the details of a shocking home invasion. “Two guys tried to break in my home last night. So Glad I wasn’t there 🙏🏾people are sick! This is my sign to get Tf out of here, and to be more private and more to myself about everything,” the musician and reality star tweeted. However, there was yet more to the story. Apparently, Cartner’s boyfriend was home at the time of the robbery. And while he found the time to make a YouTube video about it, he apparently didn’t actually check to make sure Carter was okay.

“When I see so many females bashing me because I go on Instagram and Twitter and I’m filled with emotions, and everybody does it, our generation we grew up on that…but I can’t do it cause I’m Reginae Carter…and if I do it I’m bashing somebody,” Carter said in her tearful video. That’s not the case. I love very hard and I’m very genuine and something really big happened to me and the person who I love did not check on me, but he made a YouTube video, so yes I do feel like that’s a little clout chasing.” Carter and her boyfriend have reportedly since broken up.

YK Osiris Shoots His Shot

Rapper YK Osiris had previously shot his shot for Carter back in 2020, but he saw another opportunity after she said boy bye to the clout-chaser YouTuber. “Awwww I knew I would be the one,” Osiris wrote in an Instagram comment on The Shade Room. Additionally, he took to his Instagram Story, posting ” @itsreginaecarter it’s ok you are a beautiful woman you should always speak your mind. Especially when a lame ass n-gga make you look bad.”

Furthermore, Osiris posted a now-deleted screenshot of a text message he had sent to Armon Warren, the ex-boyfriend in question. “Don’t ever bring your bitchass in my DM I’ll slap the shit out of you n-gga that’s on my son especially wen I don’t know you,” Osiris wrote. Warren responded, “Lmao boy you a bitch. IIma show you tho I promise that stop texting n-gga I said what it is Ima see you.”

Tekashi 6ix9ine’s Alleged Attackers Released From Jail

Screen Shot 2023 04 08 at 12.04.54 PM

According t several reports, the father and son who was allegedly recorded beating and robbing disgraced Brooklyn rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine have been released from jail.

43-year-old Rafael Medina Jr. and his 23-year-old son Octavius Medina have been released on house arrest in Palm County after signing a promissory note with a bail bond company. Rafael was released on a $52K bond while his son was cut loose on a $22K surety bond. Their co-defendant, 25-year-old Anthony Maldonado, signed a $22K surety bond as well, but remans in custody at Palm Beach County’s Main Detention Center, according to court records.

All three were charged with battery and robbery of the “Gummo” rapper and are slated for court appearances next month.

On March 30, Maldonado and the father/son team were arrested on suspicion of assaulting Tekashi, whose real name is Daniel Hernandez, inside an LA Fitness gym in Palm Beach County, Florida and recorded the entire ordeal.

Tekashi gave a statement to Palm Beach County Sheriff’s investigators, telling them that his attackers took the key fob to his Lambo, Balenciaga sneakers and an iPhone.

Rumors have circulated that the attack was due to 6ix9ine’s allegiance to Mexico over Puerto Rico in the World Baseball Classic last month, but authorities say that Medina Jr. is a high ranking member of the Latin King, which is an ally to the Bloods gang. Tekashi famously aided federal prosecutors to convict several of his Blood co-defendants of racketeering and violent crimes, resulting in a sentence of jail and house arrest. 

As part of the conditions of release from jail, the three defendants signed papers agreeing to obey all laws, not possess weapons, and appear for scheduled court hearings. The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s website says its house arrest program allows participants to obtain employment and requires them to wear an ankle monitor.
