Tekashi 6ix9ine

New York rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine believes he’s going to be a free man in the coming months. Fresh reports claim the jailed hip-hop artist believes his prison days are nearly up.

According to reports, 6ix9ine testified last week and said he thought he would be released next year.

While testifying against Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods members Anthony “Harv” Ellison and Aljermiah “Nuke” Mack last Thursday (Sept. 19), the imprisoned artist confirmed that he expected to be out of lockup by the beginning of 2020. 6ix9ine asserted this when one of Mack’s attorneys asked the rapper if he’d be released at the beginning of next year if the rapper was granted time-served.

Last weekend, singer Teairra Mari hit up Instagram with hard-hitting posts of 6ix9ine hanging out with G-Unit’s 50 Cent.

Coincidentally, 50 went to Instagram last Friday with some hard-hitting memes poking fun at 6ix9ine’s publicized federal trial.

50 initially hopped on Instagram last Thursday with some fire memes getting at 6ix9ine’s alleged testimony and name-dropping Dipset’s Jim Jones.

“I saw America in full—not as it appears on Twitter and cable news, where we’re constantly shown a country hamstrung by our differences and unable to tackle the problems we face,” de Blasio wrote in his NBC News piece. “We have more in common than we realize—and more and more of us across the country are overcoming our divisions and standing up for working people.”

Mayor de Blasio received congratulatory messages from opponents Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and Andrew Yang for his work and spirit on the campaign trail, which you can read below.

Racist Attacks Continue Against ‘The Squad’ Congresswomen

Words by: Tahyira Savanna

It’s been a full week since President Trump made remarks against four freshman congresswoman notably referred to as the “Squad” via his Twitter feed.

Trump told the four women, who he initially did not name in person, that they should “Go back to where you come from” dismissing the fact that three out of four of them are American born citizens except for Rep. Ilhan Omar, who is a naturalized citizen born in Somalia.

During a rally held in North Carolina last week, Trump did, in fact, name his opponents saying “Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, I told them I don’t have time to say three names” in which his crowd responded by chanting their anthem “send her back.” The chant is a play on his last election’s campaign against Hillary Clinton where Maga supporters chanted “lock her up.”

The scene is grim, to say the least. The President attempted to walk back the behaviors displayed at the rally saying “I don’t necessarily agree with it, I felt kind of bad about it” but also continued to say “these people love our country.”

The two other congresswomen who won their seats during the midterm elections that are also being attacked is Rep. Rashida Tlaib and Rep. Ayanna Pressly.  The women held a joint news conference days after the President’s racist address in which they denounced his anti-American wording and reminded voters that America has long been a country of immigrants.  The message being sent from the Head of State and the GOP is that if you are different then you do not count and that it is ok for others to use harmful language towards you.

Ocasio-Cortez has already been the focal point of online harassment as a Facebook group created by current and ex Border Patrol agents was exposed a few weeks back for inciting rape violence against her.  The group has over 10,000 active Facebook members that in some instances have already been traced back to officials, the Department of Homeland Security stated but the true number of conspirators are still inconclusive.  An investigation into the Facebook group has been launched.

Today, in Louisiana a police officer has been fired for comments made on his Facebook page towards Ocasio-Cortez. Officer Chris Rispoli stated that the Representative from New York is a “vile idiot” and that “she needs a round,” insinuating that the congresswoman is shot.  He was responding to an alleged fake news article that misappropriated a quote to the congresswoman that said: “we pay our soldiers too much.” Ocasio-Cortez responded on her twitter feed by saying: “This is Trump’s goal when he uses targeted language & threatens elected officials who don’t agree with w/ his political agenda,”.  She continued, “It’s authoritarian behavior. The President is sowing violence. He’s creating an environment where people can get hurt & he claims plausible deniability.”

The entire “squad” was targeted in yet another recent Facebook post by the Republican County Chairmen’s Association of Illinois, which labeled them the “jihad squad.”

“Political Jihad is their game,” the since-deleted post read. “If you don’t agree with their socialist ideology you’re racist.”

The response from Trump’s party has been relatively unacceptable.  It is no longer okay or safe for those who hold public positions and have taken an oath to uphold American values, remain passive about circumstances of bigotry, misogyny, xenophobia, and racism.  We have continually thrashed into this hatred filled underbelly that will be marked in history by this Administration and those who chose to stay quiet about it.  The GOP is afraid to over analyze any statements made by the President on Twitter for one big reason.  They know that many of their constituents might feel the same way; which is a much sadder case.  With the demographics of the U.S. shifting away from Whites being the majority race, the response to fear has increased attacks not only against Democrats who are non-White but also in communities where black and brown people live.  The mainstream media has a job to do as well.  As they continue to promote the fact that we are not as divided as we seem, the amount of support drawn from Trump’s racist rants tell a different story.

Do you feel safe in your community as it pertains to racial attacks?

Eminem’s Father Marshall Mathers Jr. Dies At 67

Eminem has lost his biological father.

According to TMZ, Marshall Bruce Mathers Jr. died early this week after suffering a heart attack near Fort Wayne, Indiana. Mathers was at his home at the time of his death. Eminem has often rapped about the relationship he has with his estranged parents. The “Not Afraid” rapper is named after his dad, Marshall Bruce Mathers III. Eminem says he never met his father in person because he left shortly after his birth.

In “Cleaning Out My Closet” Slim Shady raps, “My fa***t father must’ve had his panties up in a bunch, cause he split, I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye. No, I don’t on second thought, I just f**kin’ wished he would die.” I look at Hailie and I couldn’t picture leaving her side.”

Although the relationship did not exist, it affected him. TMZ reports that Eminem often wrote letters to his dad as a child, but they would come back “return to sender.” According to Marshall Bruce Jr., Eminem’s mom would often keep him away from their son. Therefore, it hindered any possibility of a relationship. The Recovery rapper has also stated that his father would call, but he would never get to talk to him on the phone.

Marshall Bruce Mathers Jr. was 67.

4HIPHOP

Dear Editor,

We know that our mission in business will not appeal to everyone.

This opportunity is for those who chose to live a Hip-Hop lifestyle and who are also interested in long-term economic development for the people that are a part of the culture.  In this letter to the culture, we intend to describe the upside potential that comes with acquiring and owning the new cryptocurrency under the symbol HIPHOP, which became available to the public in early March 2019 on CoinExchange.io.  

From shopping online, to even ordering food online, digitalization has revolutionized the way we operate. But what about money.

How much more digital can money possibly become?

One way or another, everyone has heard of Bitcoin.  When the world first encountered Bitcoin the natural response was… “Is this legitimate?

We don’t have to tell you that Bitcoin is legit.  However, we are here to tell you that the HIPHOP Token is the premier ecosystem for the culture.

For those who don’t particularly understand cryptocurrency, we’ll try to summarize it:  Cryptocurrency is an alternative form of payment to conventional cash, credit cards, and cheques. Essentially, the technology behind cryptocurrency allows you to send digital equivalents of money from one point to another without having to go through a third party such as a bank.

Think of cryptocurrency as money and stock. Money in the sense that it has value and you can use it as a means to exchange for goods and services, and stock in the sense that there are no dividends, just whatever the cryptocurrency is worth on a given day.  However, the manner in which this currency is stored is similar to the manner in which you’d store cash in your wallet, only on a virtual platform. Of course, like any platform that is virtual, there is bound to be security concerns. This is why cryptography (a security technique that bolsters confidentiality) is employed to secure financial transactions, control the creation of additional crypto units and verify transfer of assets, hence, eliminating fraud and the possibility of third person breaches as holistically as possible.

ICO’s are the physical equivalents of IPO’s in investment lingo. ICO stands for Initial Coin Offering which typically involves selling a new digital currency at a discount offer or as a TOKEN as part of a way for the company selling to raise money.

The upside potential here is, in the eventuality that that cryptocurrency succeeds and appreciates in value, the person who buys the TOKEN makes a significant profit. Although investing in digital currency is somewhat high risk (as the field is relatively a developing one in terms of regulation), it is worth noting that over time, all contracts like everything else will become digital.

CoinSchedule reported over $9 billion in token sales in the first six months of 2018, which further established the immense viability of digital currency and token purchase.

The Market size and potential margins for digital currency and the purchase of tokens are forecasted to increase exponentially throughout the coming years as technologies IoT and Artificial Intelligence gradually improve the efficiency of blockchain technology and digital currency security.

Holding a few dollars in HIPHOP Tokens is both an investment in the culture and in your own future.  

Take a moment to imagine this: Years ago when companies like Apple and so on offered sales of some of their stock to the public (similar to the whole idea of tokens), how many people back then believed that their investments were going to matter? How many people were skeptical about their investments? The same goes for digital currency tokens. Investment into digital currency is a slow and painstaking process, taking years to fully mature and yield profit, but when it does, the benefits are immeasurable. The question now is what’s stopping you?  Invest in your future by holding some HIPHOP Tokens in your wallet.

Take advantage opportunity now.

Go to: CoinExchange.io and invest in HIPHOP.

YNW Melly Is Now A Suspect In 2017 Police Killing

Things just went from bad to worse for Florida rapper YNW Melly.

After his recent arrest for allegedly shooting and killing two of his friends, Melly, whose real name is Jamell Demons, is currently a suspect in the shooting death of a deputy in the Indian River County Sheriff’s Department.

Deputy Gary Chambliss was killed almost two years prior to when Melly was named as suspect in the 2017 Gifford murder. YNW Bartien aka Cartien Henry was also named as a suspect and has already been taken into custody.

A source, who remains anonymous according to Vero News, says that it was well known that both Melly and Bartien were both at the scene of the shooting.

Demons, 19, and Henry, 20, are currently in custody after the duo were indicted by a Broward County grand jury on two counts of first-degree murder in connection with the shooting deaths of their two friends. Christopher Thomas Jr., 19, and Anthony Williams, 21, were shot and killed in the early hours of Oct. 26 in South Florida.

Detectives are hoping that by facing the possibility of a death sentence by lethal injection that Demons and Henry will help them uncover the death of Deputy Chambliss.

TheSource.com will bring updates to this story as it develops.

THE RICH KID INVOLVED IN A SHOOTING

Gun violence is on the rise in the United States; it is one of the social vices in the US today. On Tuesday evening an American famous hip-hop musician Usher popularly known as the Rich Kid was involved in a shooting at Westlake Recording studio. He was about to record a song in the studio which is popular for famous musicians such as Justin Bieber, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Rihanna, Quincy Jones, and Justin Timberlake. Law enforcement officers have confirmed that usher and his multiple entourage members were at the scene. Sources indicate that he was not injured. However, at least one bodyguard has been wounded from pistol whipping.

Police are yet to confirm the number of causalities. Furthermore, this is not the first time Usher is attacked. Last summer, he and his lovely girlfriend Tori Brixx were severely injured during a home robbery in downtown Los Angeles. The burglary resulted in a loss to the musician as the robbers stole cash and jewelry from the house. Moreover, the injuries sustained from this ordeal were serious as Usher was admitted in the hospital for days.

The Rich Kid is fond of displaying large amounts of cash and jewelry on social media which he regards as a motivational act. Police have confirmed that indeed it was a robbery, but they are yet to establish whether he was the target. Moreover, L.A deputies are on the ground to secure the crime scene and gather for evidence as they are pursuing the suspect. Sources say that the shooters or shooter stole a ton of cash and jewelry whose owner is yet to be known.

Later in the day, Usher was seen leaving the studio and heading home. He appeared fine but had no comment on what transpired. His representatives also confirmed to his fans that the rapper was okay.

RELEASE OF RAPPER 21 SAVAGE

Abraham Joseph popularly known as 21 Savage, who was arrested earlier this month by the U.S Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) over Visa violation, will finally be a free man. This arrest was made when the Rapper overstayed even after his visa had expired, but will be released on bond. Through his lawyers and attorneys, the accused has been communicating with the ICE to convince them as to why he deserved the relationship and gave proof of how he has been of benefit to society.

During the Grammy Awards, that which he was not only to attend but also perform, he sent a message to his followers telling them of how he appreciated their support. He further claimed that he was much prepared to continue with his work of bringing people together through his music and showed deep feelings of missing his loved ones and how he was ready to be with them.21 savage through his attorneys, added that despite him being absent physically, he was with them in spirit and that he will never forget all that transpired during his detention.

Moreover, he will familiarize with the faces of each he met while in detention and all those people being denied their right countrywide. He concluded by asking his fans to empathize with them. Up to now, it is not clear why the rapper was denied immediate release on bond after his arrest early February. This proves to be an injustice since he was undergoing immigration processes to become an American citizen entirely, the accused is in right state of mind and did not appear to course any danger to the society, and neither was he going to flee hearing .these were the only reasons why one should be denied bails.

CHRIS BROWN/OFFSET BEEF STILL ON

In what one appears to be one of the trending beef in town, Offset, and Chris Brown have been making headlines considering their recent engagements in cold wars over the social media for some time now. The two hitmakers have been exchanging hits at each other after Offset responded to a meme that Chris had posted mocking a 21 savage, who is facing deportation after his visa expired. However, Chris replied to Offset telling him to worry about his business and focus on himself.

The beef has since been going on, and things are kind of turning sore with Chris taking the game to another level. In one occasion Chris has even asked Offset to confront him for a physical fight, bringing to his Instagram page, Chris blasted Offset for being scared to fight a singing nigga. He even went ahead to say, “Don’t consider myself gangsta. But I promise the worst thing in the world is when a singing nigga got niggas scared to fade, and what’s lame is nigga all in my comments worried about another nigga.

I’ll leave this where it’s at! So you just dance ya way out my comments!” Brown, however, did not seem to be satisfied and even vowed to send some flowers to Offset’s wife Cardi B, “Ima send ya girl flowers so she knows I respect her, I’m disappointed in this ni**a, as his father I should have been there more in his life so he wouldn’t come out a lame azz nigga!” it’s only a matter of time before Offsets responds to Chris, but no one can predict where this will lead especially that Cardi B is now a part of the ongoing feud between the two stars. Perhaps its high time someone comes in between the two so that the issue can be resolved once and for all.
