50 Cent seems to always been involved in a lawsuit though they are usually against him but now it seems he is suing his former business partner for $800 thousand. His former business partners name is Andrew Jameson and he is suing him for falsely representing 50 on the cable channel E!. TMZ is reporting that 50 paid Jameson $270,000 to make some deals on his behalf and when this deal ran its course Jameson went onto E! and tried to get a reality tv show up and running called “The Unit”. The show was said to feature “young white woman” on Jamesons request because it would make the show more sellable which 50 Cent found really offensive. 50 is suing to get back what he lost financially and for damaging his relationship with NBC Universal. Lawyer of Jameson had this to say about 50 “His claims aren’t worth 50 cents. In fact, Andrew is the one owed money — several months of unpaid salary… and he’s in arbitration to get it.” Keep it locked for any updates on this lawsuit.

Nineteen year old white rapper from Hamilton, Ohio, has made waves on social media the last couple weeks because of his music video “Drill Time”.

Now while speaking with Complex the game was asked about what he though about Slim Jesus and he gave him some real advice. “I think that Slim Jesus either really better be fucking killing or he’s gonna get his ass smoked, I worry about kids these days rapping about things that they’re not really about.” Game continues “Sometimes I think it’s sad because lives can be lost when playing those games, be careful, Slim Jesus.” Those are some wise words for Slim Jesus who even did an interview saying that he doesn’t do anything that he brags about doing in his songs. Check out a Pic of Slim Jesus below.

But in a recent visit to “The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore” The Game talked about this and says he does not think the way those people who get upset over things like that. “Personally, I think that it’s really ignorant when people get mad because someone cornrows their hair, they saw a hairstyle, they liked it.

Rick Ross always seems to have some legal troubles right behind him and this time it has to do with rape yet again. TMZ is now reporting that a “Jane Doe” has come forward with a brand new lawsuit stating that she had met Rick Ross and his crew at a hotel called the W in L.A. on Grammy weekend. They went to the Canibus Cup in a van when she was given a drink and started feeling dizzy eventually passing out and waking up then passing out again in Rosses friend “Black”’s hotel room and waking up at 8 AM the next morning.

The Game is facing yet another lawsuit but this time for missing a show as Page Six is now reporting. He was supposed to have performed at the Middle East Restaurant and Nightclub which is in Cambridge, massachusetts way back in April.

When the show was eventually cancelled Game never returned the money and this is a story we hear quite a lot when it comes to these smaller shows. Right now we have no idea how much money they are looking for in their lawsuit but it can be assumed they at least want their $10,000 back but keep it locked for any updates.

A Lil Wayne sex tape is said to be making the rounds to all the celebrity media sites with reports showing up just this morning saying that “someone” is sending the tape around.
