Signs The World Is Coming To An End: Woman Has Legs Amputated After Botched Butt Injections WRITTEN BY: SYDNEY LACE

Wed, 16 May 2012 10:50:00 +0000

Is having a nice rear end worth giving up your legs? Unfortunately for April Brown, those were exactly the consequences she had to endure after she received botched butt injections at an unlicensed facility.

Brown had to have both of her legs amputated to save her life after her butt injections led to several life-threatening infections.

“I got the butt implants five years ago,” said Brown. “For five years, I lived in pain. Excruciating pain.”

To make matters worse, Brown refuses to tell authorities who gave her the injections or where the procedure took place, putting possibly hundreds of other people in danger. All that for some cakes?

(AllHipHop News) The line-up for the 2012 Rock The Bells Festival was announced today and the cornerstone of the massive concert series is a reunion of Bone Thugs In Harmony.

On Tuesday, the organizers of the event suggested to AllHipHop – without revealing – that there would be a reunion of a rap act of gigantic proportions but didn’t indicate that it would be the multi-platinum Cleveland rap collective. Aside from their music, Bone Thugs-In-Harmony are known for having continued internal conflicts with its members.

Bone Thugs will be performing their hit album E. 1999 Eternal in its entirety as will the other attendees of the roving festival.

But, the festival will also feature a reunion of The Hit Squad (EPMD, Redman, Keith Murray K-Solo and Das EFX).

Other performers include Kid Cudi, Wiz Khalifa, Nas, J.Cole, Ice Cube, Mac Miller, The Diplomats, Kendrick Lamar, ASAP Rocky, Tyga, 2 Chainz, Missy Elliott and Timbaland, Prodigy and a bevy of others.

Hip-Hop Rumors: The Cast of ?Love and Hip Hop Atlanta? Revealed! by Sydney Lace

Thu, 15 Mar 2012 05:50:00 +0000

We’ve been hearing about a “Love and Hip Hop Atlanta” spinoff show for a while now, and the official cast list has been leaked.

The Hotlanta cast will consist of Diamond, formally of Crime Mob, Diamond’s ex-boyfriend, Scrappy, and Scrappy’s mother, Mama D., Atlanta rapper, Rasheeda and her husband/manager, Kirk Frost, and producer, Stevie J.

Lil’ Scrappy and Diamond used to date and had a very messy break up! Diamond ran into the arms of Soulja Boy, and Scrappy’s mama, Mama D did not like that one bit. She went to the local radio station and put Diamond on blast! Here’s a little of what she said:

“Okay, the b*tch done got breast implants and booty shots, the b*tch ain’t real first of all. Secondly, Soulja boy is gonna come behind him anyway. So at the end of the day Scrappy is chilling, he’s fine, he’s the Prince of the South and he got it good. He’s living good and he ain’t thinking about that bitch…dirty low down b*tch.”

If you thought the relationship between Chrissy Lampkin and Nancy Jones was volatile, it’s a drop in the bucket compared to Diamond and Mama D. Expect lots of cracked-out moments with her!

Stevie J used to date Eve back in the day and allegedly leaked a sex tape of the two of them a few years back. He pretty much fell off the face of the earth after that. It will be interesting to see what he is up to now.

Rasheeda is a local Atlanta singer/ rapper. I hear she’s very sassy and about her business.

Will you be watching the new “Love and Hip Hop Atlanta” spinoff show?

Fugitive Wanted For Role In Jimmy Henchman Cocaine Operation Arrested

Tue, 21 Feb 2012 10:25:00 +0000

(AllHipHop News) bA man wanted for his role in Jimmy “Henchman” Rosemond’s drug dealing operation was apprehended over the weekend.

Authorities had been seeking Jason Williams, who went on the run in May of 2011, after an indictment was unsealed accusing Henchman and his subordinates of using Czar Entertainment as a front for a $10 million drug dealing operation.

Henchman is accused of using Czar, which managed artists like Game, Brandy and Akon, as a cover to send hundreds of kilos of cocaine in cases used for transporting music equipment to various recording studios.

The scheme then used Fedex to send the proceeds to mailbox drops in vacuum sealed bags on the West coast.

Henchman himself went on the run from May of 2011 until he was apprehended in late June of 2011, at The W in New York’s Union Square.

In October of 2011, Henchman’s brother Kesnar Rosemond was sentenced to 12 years in prison for his role in the drug dealing operation.

Jimmy “Henchman” Rosemond is currently awaiting trial on drug conspiracy and trafficking charges.

He has pleaded not guilty and faces a life sentence if convicted.

Jason Williams is currently being held without bail on cocaine distribution and drug trafficking charges.

Alley Boy Denies Beef with T.I. and Young Jeezy

Sun, 29 Jan 2012 14:45:00 +0000

(AllHipHop News) Atlanta rapper Alley Boy of Duct Tape Entertainment denied any beef with fellow Atlanta rappers Young Jeezy and T.I. at a listening session for his most recent project “Nigganati.”

Follow link to watch video HERE on BLAQSHEA.COM:

http://www.blaqshea.com/apps/videos/videos/view/15791010-alley-boy-denies-beef-with-t-i-and-young-jeezy?profile_tab%5Bposter_id%5D=73442201&profile_tab%5Btab_count%5D=11

Late last week, Alley Boy set the internet on fire with his song “I Want In.”

Many Hip-Hop fans thought Alley Boy was taking shots on the track, which showcases Alley letting Jeezy and T.I. know that he “wants in” on all the hit making thats going on between Jeezy and T.I..

“All that street sh*t? It’s over, game over/I’m the new king of the streets, no motivation, game over,” he spits. “F**k that snow sh*t/This hot sh*t/ In the A-town/This my sh*t,” Alley Boy says.

While the previous two lines suggest Alley Boy is not happy with Jeezy and T.I., Alley Boy told AllHipHop.com that there was no beef or rift between him and his famous counterparts.

“I did the ‘We Want In’ record,’ a lot of folks say its a shot at a ni**a man, but I don’t take shots man, when I take shots at a ni**a they gon’ be bleedin,’” Alley Boy told AllHipHop.com. “But at the end of the day, I say respect the way I feel about sh*t. I feel like f**k a ni**a, it’s my city, know what I’m saying?”

Many listeners questioned the beef, since Alley Boy was a guest feature on Young Jeezy’s ‘The Real is Back’ mixtape hosted by DJ Drama.

But Alley Boy didn’t mince his words and was clear that if the shoe fit, either rapper could wear it.

“Ain’t no bullsh*t in it, once I peep a ni**a character and I feel the ni**a aint real, I just go in on a ni**a, I dont give a f**k, its whatever, ni**as know what it is around the A,” Alley Boy explained to AllHipHop.com in an exclusive interview during a listening session for “Nigganatti.”

Alley Boy made it clear that some of the more established acts refuse to work with artists like himself, who are garnering a street based following.

“You know man, it wasn’t no disrespect to none of the independent ni**as, you know what I’m saying, when I say what I say, its just for these bitch ass ni**as that be coming out here that don’t f**k with no street ni**as, they don’t f**k with no real ni**as, that was just my thing like, ni**a you needa f**k with a real nigga, or it is what it is, you get caught with the wrong person, you might get caught with the green light on you, so that was just me saying that,” Alley Boy concluded.

Young Jeezy and T.I. were not available for comment at press time.
