December 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

DJ Akademiks has claimed that his former girlfriend stole $500K in cash from his home. While putting the woman on blast, Ak made the claim that he used to have $1M cash at his house before his former partner reportedly stole half. Additionally, Ak claimed that the woman would constantly try to peek his emails in hopes of finding “leverage” of the DJ and content creator. “I could have had her locked up for 40 years,” Ak said of the theft.

However, commenters online weren’t especially sympathetic after hearing Ak’s story. “I’m not saying she was right because I don’t ever condone stealing.. But you give off suckuh energy and I see why she did it ,” one person trolled. “You gave her the codes to your safe wtf ,” another added. “bro still took her back and aint press chargesshe up 40-0 on him,” noted a third.

However, this isn’t the first rumor to emerge about Ak’s love life in recent weeks. Jade, the ex-girlfriend of 6ix9ine, has claimed that the rapper and Ak have been “f-cking for a very long time”. She has further claimed that this was the reason that she broke up with the rapper. She also threatened to go after the rapper if he tried to cause trouble. “Don’t make me post this video with me playing with ya a–“. The couple haven’t been an item since mid-2022, when they went through an explosive breakup.

While 6ix9ine has never been confirmed as being queer, people appeared to accept it. “Makes sense. No wonder Santana made him cry. Undercovers always get emotional when they get called out ,” one person noted. “We all need to be bringing in the New Years at somebody’s church!! 2023 is def for the books! ,” another added. However, others didn’t think it was an especially big deal. “So many people are gay I honestly do not care anymore. Find something else to shock me,” one person argued.

Lil Zay Osama Arrested For Gun Possession & Robbery: Report

December 15, 2023 by newhiphopnews

According to new reports, Lil Zay Osama has been arrested for gun possession and robbery. Unfortunately for him, this is the latest in a series of arrests for similar charges, ones that have plagued his life and career for a long time. It’s important to note that much of this is due to the systemic conditions and circumstances that he faced while growing up in Chicago. Nevertheless, the specific charges include theft of over $10,000 in stolen goods, although the arrest report indicates that it doesn’t reach the $100,000 mark. In addition, this document details the specific firearm charges that he faces.

Furthermore, authorities took custody of Lil Zay Osama for possessing a loaded machine gun on his person and in the passenger compartment of his vehicle. Not only that, but the report also suggests that he modified the gun in some way that left a defaced serial number. It’s unclear what the “Ain’t On S**t” rapper’s status or condition is, as well as whether he’d be able to bond or bail out. Surely within the coming days and weeks, we should get new updates on this case and what other implications it could yield for him.

Back in October of last year, Lil Zay Osama spoke on another arrest he faced and the circumstances behind his escape of it. “I’m On A 1Million Dollar Bail Rn,” he wrote on Instagram. “Ima Beat This Up Like Rocky Thanks to my lawyer @dawnmflorio [heart emoji] We Locked In 5L. It’s cr*zy i thought people would say free me hoping i do better and wish the best. Yall really in the comments and on blogs saying 20 and 30 plus ima get and yall hope i get time im dum and etc. Don’t believe everything u hear i been out here i know how to move dont believe everything u hear.”

Meanwhile, these issues even prompted the 26-year-old to call for help from other famous rap figures. Perhaps he will do the same this time around and expose his situation publicly in more elaborate ways. Hopefully this is the last arrest, and one that marks the end of his legal troubles. For more news and updates on Lil Zay Osama, stay posted on HNHH.

Ex-Jaguars Employee Accused Of Stealing $22M From Team

December 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

A former employee of the Jacksonville Jaguars has been accused of stealing over $22M from the team. Amit Patel was charged with wire fraud and illegal monetary transactions. The charges state that Patel, who worked in the Jags’ finance department, manipulated the team’s virtual credit card system to fund “lavish personal purchases”. Purchases include a luxury condo, a Tesla, cryptocurrency, private jet charters, and luxury watches.

“We can confirm that in February 2023, the team terminated the employment of the individual named in the filing. Over the past several months we have cooperated fully with the FBI and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Florida during their investigation and thank them for their efforts in this case. As was made clear in the charges, this individual was a former manager of financial planning and analysis who took advantage of his trusted position to covertly and intentionally commit significant fraudulent financial activity at the team’s expense for personal benefit. This individual had no access to confidential football strategy, personnel, or other football information,” the team said in a statement.

Meanwhile, another ex-Jag is facing a legal battle of his own. Sergio Brown, who played for the Jags in 2015, has entered a not-guilty plea on the charge of murdering his mother, Myrtle. Brown reportedly entered his plea on Wednesday while remanded in custody at a jail in Illinois. He will be due back in court later this month. Brown and his mother were reported missing in September, only for his mother’s body to be discovered beside a creek near their Illinois home. Brown remained missing for a few days until he began posting concerning videos from Mexico. He was eventually detained in Mexico and extradited to the United States.

Brown was a starting safety for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish but went undrafted in 2010. However, he was later signed by the Patriots and would play nearly 100 games over the next seven seasons, although he would only ever start 15 games. He retired in 2016 following a brief stint with the Bills. Finishing his career with 144 tackles, Brown also played for the Colts and Jags. His time with the Bills came after a training camp with the Falcons.

Mitchel Musso Arrested, Former “Hannah Montana” Actor Allegedly Stole Chips While Drunk

August 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

As a kid, watching others live your dream by starring in hit shows on the Disney Channel felt frustrating. However, seeing the trials and tribulations former child stars go through while attempting to navigate adulthood may have you feeling grateful that you skipped out on those auditions after all. Orlando Brown and Amanda Bynes are two figures who continue to appear in the news as they work through their mental health struggles. Now, Hannah Montana alum Mitchel Musso joins them.TMZ reports he was arrested in Texas on Saturday (August 26) night.

The incident took place at a hotel in the city of Rockwall, according to the outlet. Officers responded to a call claiming that a man (now known to be Musso) was acting belligerent after allegedly stealing a bag of chips from the food market. Staff approached the 32-year-old to demand that he pay for the product, at which point he became verbally abusive toward them and walked away. When authorities arrived on the scene, Musso was waiting outside the hotel and determined to be under the influence.

At the same time, local police reportedly found “a ton of outstanding traffic warrants in his name.” As a result, they cuffed him and took him into custody where the above mugshot was captured. Compared to the viral one that Donald Trump posed for earlier this weekend, Musso looks much more dejected. Thankfully, his charges are less serious and include public intoxication, theft (under $100), expired registration, failure to display a driver’s license, and violating a promise to appear notice. He was released on Sunday on a $1,000 bond.

As mentioned, Mitchel Musso isn’t the only one whose drunken behaviour landed him behind bars this past weekend. Erica Mena’s Atlanta arrest continues to be a hot topic of conversation, especially now that we know she reportedly bit an officer at the time. Read more about that at the link below, and check back later for more music/pop culture news updates.

Cavs’ Caris LeVert Has $93K Watch Stolen During House Party

August 10, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Cleveland Cavaliers backup shooting guard Caris LeVert has reportedly had a watch costing $93,000 stolen from his LA home. LeVert, who had 12.1 points per game last season, claims the watch was taken during a house party on August 1. According to law enforcement, someone was seen in LeVert’s bedroom during the party and later, LeVert found that his watch case was open and the watch itself gone.

LeVert has filed a report for grand theft. However, there are no suspects at this time. LeVert began his career in Brooklyn as the 20th overall pick in the 2016 draft. Prior to that, he had spent four years with the University of Michigan. He made a National Championship appearance with the Wolverines in his freshman and reached the elite eight as a sophomore. However, the program missed March Madness in 2015 and were eliminated in the first round in 2016.

Caris LeVert Has Latest NBA Watch Drama

Caris LeVert is just the latest NBA player to make headlines for his watches. Earlier this year, LeMelo Ball went viral for his incredibly ugly custom watch. Meanwhile, Joel Embiid had an adorable reaction to receiving his first Rolex. The watch was a gift from his Sixers teammate James Harden in recognition of Embiid winning MVP.

Meanwhile, the Cavs continue to build themselves into a contender. The team added Max Strus and Damian Jones in trades at the start of July. Furthermore, they added free agents Georges Niang and Ty Jerome. Meanwhile, their only draft addition was Eastern Michigan’s Emoni Bates in the second round. After acquiring Donovan Mitchell last season, the Cavs will look to improve on their first-round exit from the playoffs. LeVert signed an extension with the team earlier in the offseason.

Tina Knowles-Lawson Suffers $1M Theft At LA Home

July 9, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Reports have emerged that a burglary occurred at the home of Tina Knowles, the mother of Beyoncé, earlier this week. It is believed that the theft occurred on July 4. However, it was only discovered on the morning of July 5. It is believed that Knowles was not present at the LA estate when the burglary reportedly occurred. Furthermore, it was discovered by an associate who had stopped by the house the morning after.

TMZ has reported that a safe was removed from the house, along with the cash and jewelry worth over $1 million that was inside. Police declined to provide details on how the thieves got inside, or how they were able to remove the safe from the property. At the time of writing, the police reportedly have minimal leads. Reportedly, they are currently speaking with neighbors and reviewing security footage.

Latest Home Headache For Knowles

However, it’s not the first time this year that Knowles’ home has been targeted. In early April, police responded to claims that a man was throwing rocks at Knowles’ mailbox. Furthermore, the man was detained after a brief foot chase. The man was placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold. Despite this, Knowles declined to press charges or file a report about the incident. Regardless, the burglary at Knowles’ home is a developing story and we’ll have any updates here at HotNewHipHop.

In other celebrity thefts, Rowdy Rebel set the record straight about his own recent encounter. A thief appeared to flex $160,000 of Rebel’s jewelry on social media. This led many people to believe that the rapper had been robbed. However, Rebel refuted the claims of a direct robbery. Instead, Rebel claimed that the thief had stolen the items while Rebel was asleep. 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.

According to reports, hundreds of Post Malone’s new Raising Cane’s collector’s cups have been stolen. The limited edition cups were launched last week. Sadly, over $6,000 worth of them were recently taken from a restaurant located in The Galleria Mall in Houston. A Houston PD report says that 249 of the cups were stolen on June 22, resulting in a $6,150 loss. The report further reveals that the thieves also stole dish soap and griddle cleaning pads from the location.

“We’re happy to bring a little bit of that love to every Cane’s across the country,” Post Malone wrote on Twitter upon the launch. He continued, “starting today, June 21st, with the launch of 4 limited edition Collector’s Cups.” The rapper added, “Cups are limited so get yours fast,” alongside a smiley emoji. There are four cup designs, each featuring QR codes that allow fans an opportunity to win merch, trips, and tickets.

Earlier this year, Post Malone custom-designed a Raising Cane’s near his home in Utah. The bright pink Midvale location showcases imagery of the rapper’s tattoos on the outside of the building, and several of his belongings are displayed on the restaurant’s walls. The special location was opened in April. “Collaborating with Todd [Graves] and being part of the Raising Cane’s brand with our collab restaurant and signature cups has been a fun experience,” Post Malone revealed in a press release. He continued, “I can’t wait for fans across the country to ‘Post Up’ their combos, see these cups in person, and build out their signature Posty cup collection.”

Earlier this week, the rapper shared some new details about his upcoming album, Austin. He revealed that the LP will feature 17 tracks, providing fans with a sneak-peak at one of them alongside the full tracklist and cover art. Post Malone additionally confirmed that Austin will be released on July 28, 2023. Last month, he also announced his “If Y’all Weren’t Here, I’d Be Crying” tour. The summer 2023 tour features 24 dates across the U.S.
