A former member of Fetty Wap’s group Remy Boyz named, P-Dice, is not happy with him at all.

But now P-Dice is stirring up trouble saying that the owner of RGF named Nitt Da Gritt wont actually let him out of his contract “Nitt Da Gritt, you heard, himself, snake-y ass don’t wanna let me out my contract, ‘cuz he know I’m ’bout to pass all you n*ggas,” Dice said in a recent post on his Instagram account. Later on that very same day he post again but this time he is trying to get at Fetty Wap himself standing outside of his house with his guys trying to confront him. “Fetty Wap, where the fuck are you? I’m at your fuckin’ house. And I got my n*ggas with me, so none of you n*ggas from the petting zoo try to jump me.” He says in the short clip and adds that he should send his girl out because she is more tough. So who knows where this beef is going but keep it locked for any updates.

Beyonce and Jay Z have won their lawsuit against a Hungarian singer named Mitsou.

Her vocals come from the song “Gypsy Life on the Road” that came out way back in 1997. The judge dismissed all charges because the track is not protected by the Civil Rights Law of New York which was Mitsou’s whole case.

And now what a lot of people have been waiting for may actually become reality because The Game has actually agreed to fight Stitches. As we all know Stitches is the 20 year old rapper from Florida who got most of his fame from being the big guy that Games manager knocked out with one punch. Stitches has been talking reckless towards Game for a long time now but it seems it might actually pay off now. Game has accepted his challenge to fight and he says that he will do it for free in the streets with only two conditions. 1. Stitches must first fight little-known California rapper/producer Nicky D’s “#WhiteboyVSWhiteboy” and not get knocked out. and 2. Stitches must sign a waiver agreeing that he will not sue Game or press charges. He even offered to fly him out to LA first class and have an expensive Uber pick him up from the airport. Game soon deleted the post so we’ll have to wait and see if this truly happens but it would definitely get everyone talking.

Rick Ross just had an interview with Rolling Stone and in it he reveals to the world that he is actually in the process of writing his own screenplay. It’s called GABOS which actually stands for “Game Ain’t Based On Sympathy” and is actually inspired heavily by “Miami Vice” and “Narcos” which are not bad shows to take some pointers from. “I feel it’s too big to be one film, I feel we should film it, break it down and make it a series, if we can.” Ross said and it is to be based on his own memories of his life only question is are we talking fake Rick Ross memories or his actual memories? We’ll have to wait and see how this whole venture pans out.
