It has been a little while since Azealia Banks made headlines but as usual it is something negative. Just yesterday she was arrested in Manhattan for attacking a female security guard. This attack went down just outside of Up & Down nightclub at 12:30 AM. Banks got into a heated argument with two of the clubs bouncers because she apparently did not have one of the hand stamps required to get into an invited only party. Thing went from 0 to 100 real quick when Banks allegedly spit in the female security guards face and bit her. She is looking at a misdemeanor third degree assault charge and there is no comment from her or her people just yet but we’ll keep you updated  as always.

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.

LL Cool J will return as the host of the Grammy awards which will make it his fifth time doing so which is pretty impressive.

It’s going to be an incredible night, and I’m excited to share this experience with the world." LL said in a new press release about the honor he has taken apart of so many times. The Grammys are on February 8^th at 8PM and it is sure to be a good one.

Offset of the rap trio the Migos was in jail for 8 months after he got arrested right after a concert in Georgia back in April. Now he has had his first interview with WSB-TV Atlanta and talked about his plea deal and how it was for him being locked up. “If I didn’t take the plea, then it wouldn’t be handled and I would be sitting in jail right now,” Offset said and this plea is apparently called the Alford plea which effectivley dropped all of his charges if he plead guilty to the charge of him starting a riot in the jail while he was there. "Maybe my eyes weren't open for the bigger picture, because I wasn't talking to God. To see what answers he would give me. I probably needed a little makeup work done on my character... I had to sit down to see my opportunity so I can take advantage of it to the most that I can.” Offset said and hopefully he doesn’t have anymore career setbacks in the future because he definitely doesn’t need them.

Wiz Khalifa dropped his “Cabin Fever 3” mixtape on his fans today and with ten songs and a bonus track on the tape they get a good amount of music to last them through the holidays.

This is Wiz Khalifa’s first project he released since way back in March of this year so fans were getting a bit restless.

Busta Rhymes has just announced a brand new mixtape on the way called “The Abstract Went On Vacation”. Busta announced this to his fans over his Instagram account and this project should be like his joint project with Q-Tip from back in 2013 but sadly this time no Q-Tip. The mixtape will be out on Christmas day so there is an easy gift for any Busta Rhymes fan.

As previously reported Drake was said to have opened a restaurant in Toronto but it turns out that wasn’t actually the case. The restaurant called “Frings” and Drake let everyone know that it is not his and all he did was help name the place. This came up during a interview Drake had with The New York Times and he actually said that name was his nickname for none other then Rihanna. The actual owners of the restaurant are actually friends of Drake’s and having his name beside your new restaurant can’t be bad for business.

As a big surprise for his New York fans J.Cole and Dreamville label mates performed three shows yesterday. With today’s social media the news spread like wildfire and fans met got to meet everyone. The first show was at East Village and then everyone one packed up and walked to the next location which was Cake Shop and finally ended at SOB’s. The whole thing went off without a hitch and the fans and artist loved the whole thing.

DMX always seems to have something go wrong and this time it is the fact that he apparently missed a court date. This court case he missed had to do with child support payments but his lawyer says that he thought the court date was on Tuesday not Monday but the judge did not let him slide. “[DMX] sat here at the table and said, ‘If you let me go, I’m coming back.’ Well, he ain’t here. It’ll be interesting to see if TSA picks him up on a warrant." This was a bad court date for X to miss because the judge is not on his side but we’ll see what happens next so keep it locked right here for all future updates.

Slim Jesus’ 15 minutes may be up already after he got internet famous for being one of the only white drill rappers. But it has not been a easy road for him because he is not from Chicago and all of the Chicago drill rappers had a problems with him portraying a life he doesn’t actually live. Now his most recent show in Kentucky only had 30 people show up and the audience shrank further as the performance went on. Another weird thing was that the venue was actually a strip club and according to Noisey everyone was vaping as they watched Slim perform. Well he had a good run but it looks like things are really slowing down.
