Lance Rivera Claims Jay-Z Did Not Stab Him in 1999
Lance “Un” Rivera is one of the biggest names in the world of music production. Best known for his connection with Notorious B.I.G., Rivera is a well-respected name in the industry. However, he is perhaps best known for a 1999 incident where he was stabbed by Jay-Z. The incident reportedly happened at the release of Amplified. Additionally, in 2001, Jay-Z pled guilty to the crime.
However, in a new interview with Vlad TV, Rivera made the bombshell claim that he was not in fact stabbed by the rap legend. While Rivera acknowledges that Jay-Z was at the event, he was not the one who (literally) stabbed him in the back. The incident took place at the iconic Kit Kat Club. After pleading guilty, Jay-Z was given three years probation. During that probation, Jay-Z released two #1 albums, The Blueprint 2: The Gift And The Curse and The Black Album.
Rivera Shares New Details About 1999 Stabbing
‘I ended up getting surrounded by a bunch of people, there was probably ten knives that I knew of, and I ended up gettin’ stabbed at the Kit Kat club,” Rivera said. “Me and Jay-Z had a conversation right before I got hit in the head with a champagne bottle,’ explained Rivera. ‘It was brief conversation and I was lookin’ at him like, “What are you talkin’ about? He just kept sayin’, “You broke my heart, you broke my heart,” and I’m like, “What are you talkin’ about?” However, he insists that it was not Jay-Z who stabbed him.
“If anybody knows Jay-Z, he’s a nice guy, right? He’s an artist, a poet. He’s gifted. It’s never been his history,” he continued. Furthermore, he added that Jay-Z wouldn’t hadn’t blown up if he had stabbed him. “If Jay-Z had stabbed me, y’all wouldn’t’ve got the Black album. You know, through my whole history, I’m an eye-for-an-eye type of guy.” However, this is also not the first time that someone has claimed that Jay-Z was innocent. Nas’ 2001 diss track “Ether” alluded to the notion that Jay-Z had taken the fall to protect a friend. Furthermore, follow all the latest music industry news here at HotNewHipHop.

Cash App Founder’s 911 Call & Video Footage Of Him Seeking Help After Stabbing Surface
New footage and audio surfaced from the murder of Cash App founder Bob Lee. He passed away after being stabbed in San Francisco. Moreover, the 911 call that leaked online following his tragic passing detailed the moments right before he collapsed. “There’s a male screaming ‘help,’ saying ‘someone stabbed me,’” a dispatcher narrates in the clip. “Advised he is bleeding out. He’s outside on the street.” Moreover, video footage obtained by Daily Mail shows Lee approaching a vehicle, presumably asking for help. After the car sped off, he went to the Portside apartment building at 403 Main St.
CCTV footage showed the 43-year-old holding his phone in one hand and trying to dial the building intercom with his other. Furthermore, said attack occurred around 2:35 a.m. in the city’s Rincon Hill neighborhood according to local officials. No suspects were announced by police, so no arrests have been made, either. “[He] did comment on San Francisco deteriorating, which is why he actually had relocated to Miami,” friend Jake Shields revealed to NewsNation during an interview. “So I’m not sure why he’s going back there to get a little business back in San Francisco for a couple of days.”
New Details Emerge Surrounding Stabbing Of Cash App Founder Bob Lee
“We are not commenting on evidence nor will we speculate on the circumstances surrounding this horrific crime,” San Francisco Police spokesman Sgt. Adam Lobsinger stated via video on Thursday (April 6). “Although we will commit the necessary resources and personnel to this investigation, we want to assure everyone in San Francisco the Department is staffed and ready to respond to all calls for service.”
However, this crime caused invoked much criticism of the city’s perceived soft-on-crime policies. “This is a senseless tragedy that I know is made worse by the fact that no suspect is yet in custody,” San Francisco Supervisor Matt Dorsey tweeted. He represents the district in which the perpetrators attacked Lee. “I’ve also heard from many constituents in the area. Some of whom already voiced concerns to me about public safety challenges. I’m asking everyone to cooperate with police in their investigation, especially those with access to surveillance video that may help.” Come back to HNHH for more big updates on this story.

Young Thug Codefendants Accused In Prison Stabbing
Authorities accused three of Young Thug’s codefendants of a prison stabbing. Moreover, YSL members Bhris, Bali, and Lil Rod allegedly stabbed another inmate in Fulton County Jail, according to county Sheriff Pat Labat’s words to WSB-TV. While YSL’s sprawling RICO case is underway, these members could face completely new charges. Still, officials haven’t shared additional details about the attack, such as the identity and status of the victim. However, Rodalius “Lil Rod” Ryan and Damone “Bali” Blalock are serving life in prison due to separate murder charges. Meanwhile, officials accused Christian “Bhris” Eppinger of a February 2022 shooting against an Atlanta police officer.
Furthermore, Eppinger also allegedly stabbed YFN Lucci in Fulton County Jail last February along with another YSL member. Both Eppinger and Antonio “Obama” Sumlin (who since took a plea deal) sought Thugger’s permission to make another attempt on Lucci’s life, according to prosecutors. However, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution obtained a statement from Ryan’s attorney Angela D’Williams maintaing her client’s innocence in the stabbing. “Mr. Ryan is hopeful that there is a thorough investigation and that there is not a rush to judgement,” she said. “Mr. Ryan maintains his innocence regarding this incident.”
Meanwhile, officials hit Ryan with additional charges for delaying trial proceedings, for which jury selection began last month. Moreover, authorities described Ryan as an “ongoing problem.” Also, he allegedly spat in a deputy sheriff’s face while awaiting court transportation on January 23. Additionally, the court implicated Ryan in the alleged drug deal involving Thug and YSL codefendant Khalieff Adams. Moreover, Adams stands accused of passing his label leader a single Percocet pill during court session.

Yaya Mayweather Gets Six Years Probation In 2020 Stabbing Case
Several reports have confirmed that Iyanna “Yaya” Mayweather, the daughter of living boxing legend Floyd Mayweather Jr., received six years of deferred adjudication after pleading guilty to the 2020 stabbing of another woman in Cypress, a suburb outside of Houston, Texas.
Mayweather went in front of a judge last month and plead guilty to aggravated assault with a deadly weapon for the incident in 2020, where she stabbed NBA YoungBoy’s BM several times in the arm following a physical altercation. The plea taken by Mayweather allows her to avoid jail time.
A deferred adjudication is a special form of judge-ordered probation that allows Iyanna to accept responsibility for a crime without an actual conviction placed on record. Under her sentence, Iyanna will need to abide by the following:
- Cannot commit any offenses
- Cannot use or possess any illegal drug or prescription drugs that are not currently prescribed by a medical professional
- Report to supervising officer
- Work a suitable employment and/or attend school full-time
- Remain within Harris County or any counties directly touching Harris County, and cannot travel outside the location unless given permission
Earlier this year, Mayweather celebrated her birthday and posted a pic wearing a shirt bearing her mugshot.

Cam’ron Reports On Ben Gordon’s Alleged Stabbing Attempts
It looks like Cam’ron is taking his talents to broadcasting. Yesterday, the Dipset leader took to his Instagram account to report on an attempted stabbing in Harlem.
Former NBA star Ben Gordon was reportedly detained by multiple police officers. This came after he was allegedly trying to stab random people with sewing needles. It seems as though the Harlem rapper was one of the first ones on the crime scene. The investigative report is another part of Cam’s It Is What It Is sports show.
Another segment of the show includes him criticizing Ja Morant and Charles Barkley. In a separate episode, he argued why we should never compare Quarterbacks Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers.
Cam’ron Live At The Scene
During his latest report, he shows one of the sewing needles on the ground. The weapon is allegedly one of the needles used in the attempted attack. The report comes complete with video footage of the former six man of the year in the hospital afterwards.
The 46-year-old also interviewed two eyewitnesses on the scene. Both were visually shocked when recounting seeing Gordon on the streets with the weapons. One of the men claims to have approached Gordon to say hi, before police chased and tackled him to the ground.
The former shooting guard played nine years in the NBA. He spent five years with the Chicago Bulls before also playing for the Pistons, Bobcats, Magic and Warriors. Since his last game in the league in 2015, the former third overall draft pick has been in some legal trouble.
In 2017, he was arrested for pulling out a firearm in an apartment building and charged with robbing the manager of the complex that he lived in. Gordon was also arrested in October after witnesses claim he punched his 10-year-old son in the face at LaGuardia Airport.
Furthermore, he was arrested in Chicago just last month for allegedly beating up two security guards at a McDonalds. The mental health of athletes continues to be a topic that isn’t addressed nearly as frequently. Hopefully Gordon is able to get the help that he needs.
I want folks to read this article by Ben Gordon titled ’Where Is My Mind?’. It’s about his serious struggles with mental health issues. Read it. Understand what he’s dealing before you try to get your “jokes” off about him. https://t.co/SJK6ZrYqoL
