(AllHipHop News) Financial issues continue to plague Hip-Hop superstar Nas, as the rapper has lost his half-million dollar mansion in Georgia.

 

TMZ.com reports that the Nas’ two-bedroom, three-bathroom mansion that was purchased in 2004, was recently foreclosed upon.

 

According to records, Nas defaulted on a $585,000 loan, which was taken out in 2004.

 

The bank which issued the loan, SunTrust, recently foreclosed on the home.

 

The mansion, which includes a custom theater, a gym and a game, was sold at a public auction for $348,500.

 

Nas was not available for comment as of press time.

 

Keyshia Cole is not appreciative of Gucci Mane shouting her out on records and alleging that she slept with Sean “Diddy” Combs. The R&B singer took to Twitter to refute the claims La Flare made on his song called “Truth,” a Young Jeezy dis released over the weekend.

“I did a song with Keyshia Cole and I know you still miss her/But Puff was f-cking her while you was falling in love wit’ her,” raps Gucci on the aforementioned song, one of its many jabs at his rival since Jeezy and Cole were once a couple. However, the “Let It Go” singer denies that she ever had intimate relations with Diddy and claims that the trap rapper only brought her name into the mix to “sell mixtapes.”

“That ain’t my business!! he’s lying! its all G tho,” tweeted Cole yesterday afternoon. “Putting all ya trust in some of these “Hood Rappers”.. How u gone be a G, and u spreading lies, To sell mix tapes! Where ya talent at?”

When a follower co-signed her sentiment, Cole added, “Basically. Dude ain’t have 2 lie tho! could’ve kept me out of it. I will continue 2 build what I’m working so hard accomplish! I’m married with a child, and don’t have no place in that none sense!”

Who do you believe?

Keyshia Cole can currently been seen on BET’s Keyshia & Daniel: Family First reality series and Gucci Mane’s latest project, Trap God, is due out October 17th.

(AllHipHop News) DJ Paul of Oscar Award-winning group Three 6 Mafia was arrested late yesterday evening (October 14) in New York.

Sources close to the platinum-plus, Memphis producer told AllHipHop.com that the incident unfolded after DJ Paul finished a dinner in Manhattan.

He stopped at a deli on 37th and 9th Avenue to purchase a beer and had the open container in a sleeve, when a police officer began following him.

During a search, DJ Paul informed the officer that he had a taser in his pocket.

The officer handed the taser to an assisting officer, who accidentally discharged the taser.

As DJ Paul was being booked, police officers allegedly took photos with him and singing the chorus to his hit single 2005 single “Stay Fly” featuring Young Buck and Eightball & MJG.

DJ Paul, born Paul Beauregard, was ultimately charged with misdemeanor possession of a weapon and carrying an open container in public.

He is expected to be released later this morning, but the arrest has already impacted his promotional schedule.

DJ Paul is preparing to release a new album, ironically titled A Person of Interest, on October 22.

A scheduled appearance on Power 105.1′s hit morning show “The Breakfast Club” with Charlamagne, Angela Yee and DJ Envy will be rescheduled for later in the week.

As a member of Three 6 Mafia, DJ Paul has produced hits like “2 Way Freak,” and “Sippin’ On Some Syrup.”

His production on the song “It’s Hard Out Here For a Pimp” from the movie “Hustle and Flow” won the Oscar Award for Three 6 Mafia in March of 2006.

 

Scott Storch’s endless legal problems continue.

 

Scott Storch’s personal, legal, and financial problems have just gotten significantly more serious.

 

TMZ reports that the once-renowned producer is sought by police after a Florida court ordered Storch to be arrested for failing to pay child support and other bills.

 

Court documents indicate that Storch owes $28,300, and failed to show up to court to explain why he hadn’t paid.

 

An additional report indicates that a Beverly Hills Hotel has filed a police report this week, claiming that Storch owes it $4,000.

 

Storch’s child support issues go back at least since 2008, and the producer was sued in 2012 for being too “drugged out” to produce an album.

Jones has since been released on bond.

 

Nelly has denied any knowledge of the fact that the drugs and gun were on his tour bus.

 

 

 Footage of a violent altercation that landed Miami rapper Gunplay behind bars has hit the Internet.

Tyga’s concerns about a mansion’s security lead him to stop paying rent.

 

Tyga has decided to live lavishly. Apparently, he’s also decided to stop paying for it.

 

TMZ reports that Tyga’s landlord, Gholamreza Rezai has filed a lawsuit against Tyga and his music company.

 

The suit claims Tyga signed a one-year lease in June, and agreed to pay $16,000 per month to live in a Malibu mansion.

 

Apparently, Tyga wanted to move out by September 30 because there was not enough security at the mansion and fans kept showing up at his front door.

 

The suit claims Rezai has refused to terminate the lease, and Tyga paid. Further, Rezai says the Young Money rapper hasn’t even moved out of the home.

 

The suit asks for past-due rent and damages, and seeks to get Tyga out of the mansion as soon as possible.

 

 

 

 St. Louis bred rapper Nelly, founder of the St. Lunatics, was detained for several hours for alleged possession of heroin, marijuana, and .45 caliber pistol in Texas according to TMZ.

While performing a search at border patrol, authorities found 36 small baggies of heroin (totaling .64 ounces) and over 10 pounds of marijuana inside a large green duffel bag.

According to sources, a man named Brian Keith Jones admitted to owning the drugs and gun, and was subsequently arrested and taken into custody.

Nelly and his entourage on the bus were later released.

AllHipHop.com has yet to get a comment from Nelly regarding the situation. More news as details emerge.

Young Jeezy says he wasn’t touched during the fight that broke out at the 2012 BET Hip-Hop Awards.

 

Young Jeezy and Rick Ross’ camps threw it down at the 2012 BET Hip-Hop Awards, engaging in a fight backstage. But during an interview with Power 106’s Big Boy’s Neighborhood, he said that he was never touched during the melee but didn’t go in-depth as to his feelings on Rozay.

 

“I mean first of all, it was a great awards show. I mean basically, it was just a good show. I went there, got out with Wiz, it was cool, we did our thing,” he said. “So in the hallway, we’re walking out whatever whatever. So me and him never really seen each other face to face before, and I just felt like he spoke, I spoke, and that was basically it. But at the end of the day, it’s been going on for a while so I just felt like if it was to be handled, it should have been handled there. We either gon’ get past it or keep moving. So in my words, I just feel like a lot of these cats are actor rappers. And I’m Jeezy – they could never be me. That’s just pretty much that.

 

“At the end of the day, I refuse to be part of this WWF propaganda and B.S. to sell records,” he continued. “If that’s who you want to be, you want to be a tough guy, you be that way. I’m a boss, I’m a G. That’s just how it is.”

 

He also addressed his ongoing feud with Gucci Mane, who recently said he has “no respect” for Jeezy and that they’ll “never” reconcile. The Snowman didn’t have kind words for Gooch, calling him “retarded” and stating that he turned down several requests to collaborate on a song.

 

“I mean, I feel like everybody know that boy retarded, nobody take him seriously. He got an ice cream cone on his face. That being said, I’m not going back. I’m going forward. And then it’s crazy because they’ll call you and want you on a song. And then when you don’t get on a song, that’s what happens. Of course [he called me]. He called me a few times. I just said it wasn’t a good idea. We past that. I don’t want to go backwards. He reached out a few times and I didn’t do the record, so I guess he feel a way. He didn’t take his medicine that day. Shortbus shorty.”

“Now I love Jay-Z, I’ve spent much time with the brother. He’s a lyrical genius. But we’ve got to tell him the truth,” he said. “Tell the truth, Jay-Z. You tell the truth on Reasonable Doubt in 1996, that’s what he started out with. He’s telling the truth, we love you negro. But we gon’ make sure you’re accountable too. All of us in this together, and I’m saying it out of love.”

Shyne sends shade Drake’s way.

 

Another day, another diss.

 

Shyne has set his latest sights on Drake, sending shots at the YMCMB rapper in an interview with MTV News.

 

“What does he do?” asked Shyne Po rhetorically “He’s an actor from Canada.”

 

Shyne suggested that Drake bit others’ styles to reach his level of success. “So he just studied Lil Wayne, studied Kanye… he studied them and he just acts like a street kid?”

 

“These dudes couldn’t exist in the Raekwon, Ghostface era,” surmised Shyne. “If Big and ’em was around and ‘Pac, c’mon man, they’d have these dudes for lunch.”

 

“That’s my problem with this culture, you can say anything you want, you can promote anything you want and nobody’s held accountable, and then they’ll say that I’m hatin’,” he added. “I would really prefer Drake to sing about girls and sing about being a good kid from Canada and whatever that entails.”

 

Shyne has had a busy few weeks, dissing Rick Ross and 50 Cent recently.
