Posted on September 20, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Photo by Johnny Nunez/WireImage / Photo by Johnny Nunez/WireImage Jay-Z already holds many of the firsts in hip-hop in regards to superior wealth. First to a billion, Cash King numerous times over. But for the first time, Hov isn’t the top earner in hip-hop. In the 2019 edition of  Forbes highest-paid acts in hip-hop, it’s not Hov at No. 1 but rather  Kanye West . Due in large part to his deal with adidas and the success of Yeezy footwear, Ye took home $150 million pretax income. Hov sits behind him at $81 million. The rise of Kanye on the  Forbes list has been impressive to see over the years. He was No. 10 in 2018 with $27.5 million whereas Hov was No. 1 with $76.5 million. Ye’s involvement with adidas is a huge surge and financial windfall for him as his partnership with the apparel brand is expected to bring in more than $1.5 billion in sales in 2019. Outside of the former Watch The Throne brothers,  Drake  rests at No. 3 with $75 million followed by  Diddy  at No. 4 with $70 million. Houston’s own  Travis Scott crashes the Top 5 with $58 million thanks to a number of deals with Jordan Brand, the success of his  Astroworld: Wish You Were Here tour and  Astroworld  festival. The top 10 is rounded out by the likes of  Eminem ,  DJ Khaled ,  Kendrick Lamar ,  Migos and  Childish Gambino . You’d have to wait until Nos. 12 and 13 before you see a woman appear on the list and that includes  Nicki Minaj  and  Cardi B as they’re close with $29 million and $28 million respectively. Cardi makes her own history as the youngest person on the list at 26. See the list below. 20. Pitbull ($18 million) 19. Wiz Khalifa ($18.5 million) 18. Nas ($19 million) 17. Future ($19.5 million) 16. Birdman ($20 million) 15. Meek Mill ($21 million) 14. Swizz Beatz ($23 million) 13. Cardi B ($28 million) 12. Nicki Minaj ($29 million) 11. J. Cole ($31 million) 10. Childish Gambino ($35 million) 9. Migos ($36 million) 8. Kendrick Lamar ($38.5 million) 7. DJ Khaled ($40 million) 6. Eminem ($50 million) 5. Travis Scott ($58 million) 4. Diddy ($70 million) 3. Drake ($75 million) 2. Jay-Z ($81 million) 1. Kanye West ($150 million) RELATED:  Kanye West Is The Highest-Paid Male Entertainer According To Forbes RELATED:  Jay-Z, Dr. Dre, Diddy Top Forbes’ Richest Rappers 2019 List RELATED:  Beyonce Tops Forbes Highest Paid Women In Music

Nike Gives Antonio Brown The Boot

Posted on September 20, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Boston Globe / Getty Antonio Brown ‘s NFL season of struggle , at least off the field, continues. Nike has dropped its sponsorship of the New England Patriots star wide receiver after allegations that he raped his former personal trainer. According to TMZ , a Nike rep confirmed that AB is “not a Nike athlete.” AB had a player edition shoe with Nike of its Tech Trainer that dropped back in February 2019 but has been wiped from Nike’s site. Brown vehemently denies raping Britney Taylor and maintains that any sexual contact was consensual. Nevertheless, Brown signed a 1-year deal with the New England Patriots worth $15 million, so he’s not exactly hurting for money. He still has to deal with those allegations, though. — Photo: Getty

The Most Outrageous Things To Come Out Of Tekashi 6ix9ine’s Testimony

Posted on September 20, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: PYMCA / Getty Tekashi 6ix9ine Is Revealing Some Seriously Shocking Things During His Testimony If you’ve been on the internet at all today, then you already know that the details of Tekashi 6ix9ine’s case are completely taking over every topic of conversation. Thursday, September 19 marks the 3rd day of testimony for Daniel Hernandez , more commonly known by his stage name, Tekashi 6ix9ine. The previous two days of testimony definitely provided some comedic tidbits from the rapper, but for some reason, the information being released about Thursday’s day in court are especially outrageous and prove that Tekashi isn’t leaving the trolling game anytime soon. One of the most headline-worthy reveals from today’s testimony is the unexpected involvement of Jim Jones . According to reports from TMZ , Tekashi testified that fellow New York rapper Jim Jones is a member of Nine Trey. Prosecutors played a phone conversation between Jones, Shotti and Mel Murda in which they’re all talking about getting revenge on 6ix9ine for snitching, where they make multiple references to Tekashi getting “violated.” After the recording was played, Tekashi identified Jones as a member of the gang.  Though that information on it’s own has people scratching their head, how 6ix9ine identified Jones is what really has everyone talking.Before snitching on Jones and admitting that he’s a member of Nine Trey, Tekashi identifies the Bronx native as “a retired rapper.” Jim Jones just released an album in May, so he’s far from retired–which might make this slight from 6ix9ine even more disrespectful than the snitching. Cardi B has also reportedly been roped into this case. During cross examination, the rapper confirmed she was a member of the Bloods when asked if he copied the blueprint to her success by using gang members in his projects, which Tekashi denied. These allegations against popular, famous rappers is obviously shocking, but 6ix9ine’s trolling was also on full display throughout his time on the stand. Here are a few of the funniest comments Tekashi made and just the weirdest ongoings overall that had social media going nuts: https://twitter.com/innercitypress/status/1174714797318971393?s=20 https://twitter.com/innercitypress/status/1174719747864350721?s=20 https://twitter.com/innercitypress/status/1174723154402566145?s=20 https://twitter.com/innercitypress/status/1174729182863138820?s=20 https://twitter.com/innercitypress/status/1174754622172536833?s=20 https://twitter.com/innercitypress/status/1174755413725724674?s=20 https://twitter.com/innercitypress/status/1174759657929355264?s=20

Troy Ave Spotted In The Courtroom Where Tekashi 6ix9ine Is Dropping Dime On His Mans & ‘Em

Posted on September 19, 2019 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Source: Thaddaeus McAdams / Getty While no one is showing up to give any moral support to Tekashi 6ix9ine as he tattle-tells on his former Trey Way associates, one of the two men on trial for racketeering and allegedly kidnapping and robbing the rainbow haired rapper got some support from another Brooklyn rapper, Troy Ave . According to Page Six , Nupac showed up in court to support his friend Aljermiah “Nuke” Mack and sat in the back row of the courtroom while Tekashi was detailing everything the feds asked of him while on the stand. “He’s a good guy from what I know,” the rhymester said of Mack. “I know him from trying to get into the music business. I just know him as trying to change his life to doing positive stuff,” he added. “I’m praying for him.” That’s cool and interesting considering that Troy Ave caught all kinds of slander for suggesting he too would consider being on the witness stand should he be called to testify against Taxstone at his upcoming trial. But judging from the slander that Tekashi is being subjected to online and by his rap peers for going all Henry Hill on his former gang, we’re pretty sure Troy Ave is having second thoughts about helping feds put away the man who allegedly gunned down his former bodyguard .
