Yungeen Ace Asks 50 Cent To Make A Film Based On His Life After Weapons Arrest

April 23, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Yungeen Ace was recently arrested on gun possession charges, adding another chapter to the many highs and lows of his turbulent life and career. At least, that’s what we’ve seen in the headlines on occasion, and that seems to be something that he’s well aware of, as well. Moreover, the Florida native recently took to Instagram with a message for one of hip-hop’s most successful and well-connected moguls in the wider entertainment industry. “@50cent I’m trying to get in contact with you about a move about my life,” he posited to the G-Unit boss, who hasn’t responded publicly to this request at press time.

Furthermore, it’s very likely that Yungeen Ace knew that this was exactly the right time to strike when it comes to making this pitch. This is because 50 Cent recently opened up a massive film and television studio lot in Shreveport, Louisiana, which will surely bring a lot of other amazing projects to life. While nothing is for certain in Hollywood, at least the Queens rapper has plenty of experience with successful media up to this point, such as the Power and BMF TV shows. We wonder whether he will continue to expand his resumé with other styles of narrative and thematic focuses or if he’s as down as ever to dive deeper into a specific MC.

Yungeen Ace Wants 50 Cent To Make A Movie About Him

Of course, given some of Yungeen Ace’s tribulations, antics, and beefs in the rap game, a movie on his life would be pretty eventful to say the least. But it’s a good thing that there are actually less reasons for it to happen. For example, he seemingly squashed his beef with Foolio after his shooting, and this brought an end to their very public disputes, call-outs, and fighting words. After a lot of turmoil, it’s nice that what was once a movie for bad reasons can settle down and aim for something greater.

Meanwhile, Fif is happily commentating on pretty much any and everything in the rap game these days, such as Chris Brown’s beef with Quavo. Do you think he’ll respond to this request? Whatever the case may be, drop your takes in the comments section down below. Also, stay logged into HNHH for the latest news and more updates on 50 Cent and Yungeen Ace.

Three Men Charged Over Chiefs Super Bowl Parade Shooting

March 14, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Three men have been charged with federal firearm offenses over the shooting that occurred at the Chiefs’ Super Bowl Parade last month. Unsealed documents showed that investigators concluded that at least a dozen weapons had brandished firearms. Additionally, at least half a dozen had opened fire at the event. One person was killed and over 20 were injured, including 11 children. The shooting occurred just minutes after members of the Chiefs squad had left the stage set up outside Union Station in downtown Kansas City.

Per the Associated Press, “Named in the new federal charges were 22-year-old Fedo Antonia Manning, Ronnel Dewayne Williams Jr., 21, and Chaelyn Hendrick Groves, 19, all from Kansas City. Manning is charged with one count each of conspiracy to traffic firearms and engaging in firearm sales without a license, and 10 counts of making a false statement on a federal form. Williams and Groves are charged with making false statements in the acquisition of firearms, and lying to a federal agent.” Furthermore, the men made their initial court appearances on Wednesday.

Two Men Charged In Death At Chiefs Super Bowl Parade

However, these federal charges are only the latest charges relating to the parade. Last month, state authorities charged two men, Lyndell Mays and Dominic Miller, with second-degree murder. Authorities determined that it was a round from Miller’s gun that killed local radio host Lisa Lopez-Galvan. She had been in a nearby crowd of people watching the rally. Lopez-Galvn, also known as DJ Lisa, hosted a food program on a local radio station.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce each donated $100,000 to GoFundMe campaigns related to Lopez-Galvan’s family. However, Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas, who was in attendance, said there were no plans to cancel the upcoming St. Patrick’s Parade. “We have parades all the time. I don’t think they’ll end. Certainly, we recognized the public safety challenges and issues that relate to them,” Lucas said.

SleazyWorld Go Investigated For Weapons Possession: Report

February 1, 2023 by newhiphopnews

SleazyWorld Go is reportedly under investigation for weapons possession. According to AllHipHop, the outlet has obtained court documents revealing that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) agency is looking into the rapper. The report shows that Task Force Officer Nicholas Horine recently applied for a search warrant to collect DNA from the 24-year-old. They plan to compare it to evidence in an ongoing federal investigation. SleazyWorld Go would be a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition as well as an unregistered machine gun.

SleazyWorld Go was previously convicted of armed robbery back in 2016. He’s been under surveillance since his 2020 release from prison. Police believe he is an affiliate of the Brotherland Gang (BLG). In July 2022, someone provided an anonymous tip that they had two photographs of the rapper holding a gun. By October, the feds executed federal search warrants on both his Instagram and Facebook accounts. They discovered multiple drug and firearms transactions. There were also photos and videos showing him holding up to 21 firearms at a time.

“Due to [SleazyGo World’s] open possession of firearms despite his status as a convicted felon, the presence of several armed gang members from the SleazyWorld/Brotherland Gangs, and the knowledge known to ATF personnel that the members of the gangs are associated with gun violence, drug sales, and illegally modified fully automatic firearms, investigators determined enforcement action was appropriate,” the documents obtained by AllHipHop read. “ATF personnel contacted tactical officers of the Kansas City, Kansas Police Department Special Operations Unit.”

They further continue: “Upon arrival of tactical officers from the Kansas City, Kansas Police Department, ISAAC and his associates fled on foot inside the townhome residence located at […] in an effort to elude detention by law enforcement.”

SleazyWorld Go refused to let the police officers search his vehicle for weapons. However, they still obtained access by breaking a window. They found numerous firearms inside, including an AK-47, a Glock, and more. Revisit SleazyWorld Go’s 2022 collaboration with Lil Baby, “Sleazy Flow (Remix),” below.

Shy Glizzy Affiliate Taliban Glizzy Arrested By U.S. Secret Service On Weapons Charges

December 22, 2022 by newhiphopnews

According to numerous news reports, Taliban Glizzy, an affiliate of Washington D.C.-based rapper Shy Glizzy, was arrested on December 12 and charged with two counts of unlawful possession a weapon and illegal possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Taliban, who has been under federal surveillance for over a year, was taken into custody by the U.S. Secret Service and prosecutors are alleging that Taliban is a threat to the safety of the community and that he be held behind bars until his trial.

When Taliban was stopped by police on the date of his arrest, officers found $17,000 cash, and Oyster Perpetual Rolex and diamond earrings. Last year, Taliban posted a pic of himself on Instagram at Locked & Loaded, a shooting range in Miami that specializes in machine guns. I nJuly, DC Metro Police recovered two firearms in a Lyft that was connected to the D.C. slang spitter.

Taliban Grizzly plead guilty in Prince George’s County, Maryland to attempted robbery in 2011 and in January 2017, he also plead guilty to two counts of possession of controlled dangerous substances. Prosecutors allege Taliban possessed a “number of firearms” last month on a trip from Miami to D.C.

US Secret Service were later able to confirm Taliban Glizzy’s identity and a warrant was ultimately issued for his arrest. He was taken into custody following the traffic stop in D.C.

Court docs obtained by AllHipHop state, “The government retains the ultimate burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence that the defendant presents a danger to the community and by the lesser standard of a preponderance of the evidence that the defendant presents a risk of flight—even where it is presumed that those standards are satisfied.”

The prosecutors also issued concern over Taliban’s lyrics and video from his 2021 video “Suicide Bombers”, which is in line with his Taliban moniker.

“The dangerousness that Defendant poses to the community cannot be understated,” the docs continue. “That he has persisted in possessing weapons designed to kill and maim evinces a level of dangerousness that cannot be mitigated by less restrictive conditions or combinations thereof.”
