The Game Really Wants That Action The Game has been doing quite the job of making himself a spectacle in his ongoing disagreement with Meek Mill. According to AllHipHop , the LA rapper flew east for a show he had in Reading, Pennsylvania but made a special trip to the South Philly for some cheesesteak. In reality, he was likely hoping to bump into Meek Milly to carry out the threats he sent to the Philly rapper on Instagram. Game had plenty to say on IG. He claimed Beanie Siegel got beat up at the Bad Boy Reunion tour. He was also out in Meek’s old hood passing out hundred dollar bills to every kid he saw. Last, but not least, he made it a point to address Sean Kingston and the order of protection Kingston put on the West Coast rapper. via Game’s Instagram page This nigga #meesha side bitch @tak215 gone show up 3 hours after we bounce talkin bout niggas ain’t come there…. boy if you don’t take yo fat black ass to sleep & get some rest so u can wake up early & wash meesha nuts for eem’….. tell you what, since you so tuff… you square up wit @Wack100… #McMumbles square up wit @BwsByrd & me & Lil meesha can catch our fade….. all that funeral talk u doing on ya gram ain’t scaring nobody & its gone back fire on you #DickChasers #PhillyYallGotRatsMakinYallLookBad & yall ain’t gotta worry bout @akademikstv I’ll do it this time !!!! #HowMuchYouGiveThemToSayWeWasntTherePussy #WeWasntInSouthPhilly #WeWasntInNorthPhilly #GuessWeGhostsThen #Foh #iFuckWitPhilly #iJustHateRats #WhenStandinUpForTheYoungBulGoesWrong Dag…..Beans was my nigga…… I hate it had to be him #PestControl [CLICK THE LINK IN MY BIO & enjoy ya fuckin day] hope everybody havin a good weekend…. #MyCommentsStillOn #Oooouuuuuu #YallDenJumpedBeansAtTheBadBoyJawn #NiggasDrawlin #DagOck #SigelGoneHurtOneOfYouNiggasNow #Lol Interestingly enough both rappers, supposedly, squashed the beef earlier this week. But Game has a history of un-squashing beef that should’ve been squashed so really, nobody should take his word for anything until the diss tracks and social media insults come to an end. Here’s to hoping this doesn’t get worse before it gets better.
Looks like The Game and Meek Mill beef finally led to someone getting hands put on them. This weekend Meek Mill and his Dreamchasers crew took to the streets to layeth the smacketh down on someone and unfortunately, and allegedly, it was Philadelphia’s own Beanie Sigel who caught the universal.

Kid Cudi Is Taking Aim At Everyone In His Life Kid Cudi seems to be going through some turmoil in his life. After ranting publicly about Kanye and Drake not too long ago, it appears the mother of his child has also been a target. Jasmine Brand broke the news a few days ago that Cudi’s baby mother, Jacqueline Munyasya, filed an order of protection against him. This wasn’t the first time she’s had to use the legal system to her advantage as she sued the rapper in 2010 for child support. The order of protection was filed after Cudi “allegedly texted her in excess of 168 messages – between August 11th and 14th – in which he threatened to call child services on her and that he was going to “send the guy to stand by my house” and that she was “so gross and sick n the head” and “ain’t sh*t” and he was going to serve her with legal papers because he was seeking sole custody of their daughter.” Apparently, he was bothering her so much that she had to reschedule some exams because of the emotional turmoil he was causing her. Munyasya claims she wasn’t aware of any show or event that Cudi has in Chicago so she “feared for her safety.” Supposedly, Cudi demanded time with their daughter and threatened to start a prolonged social media campaign against Munyasya. via Jasmine Brand She says not knowing whether he was in Chicago for work, she feared for her safety. She alleges that he continued to sent text messages, which caused her to reschedule her final exams for school due to the stress and distraction caused by his threats. Jacqueline says the rapper demanded parenting time with their daughter during time that she already informed him she would be spending with their child. She claims despite him being in Chicago for Lollapalooza, he never contacted her to see their child. She says that he also threatened to go to the news and contact outlets and even threatened that he would create a Twitter hashtag “Justice for Vada” (his daughter’s name) and would blast it on social media for months and even make t-shirts. She explains his previous negative tweets about her have caused his millions of fans to suggest violence against her. As a result of all this, the judge granted her an order of protection against the Ohio artist which doesn’t end until August 18th, 2017. What do you think about Cudi’s ongoing struggles? Do you think his baby mother was right for her actions?

Study Shows That The Chicago ATF Is Targeting Minorities In Drug Stings After what we heard about the “ War On Drugs ” this comes as absolutely no shock to us… Via USAToday A new report has found “strong, consistent and statistically significant” evidence that federal gun agents singled out minorities for controversial drug stings in Chicago. The stings had been a centerpiece of efforts by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to target violent crime. Agents lured suspects with the promise of a huge payday for robbing a drug “stash house” that did not actually exist, then left them facing long prison sentences for plotting to resell the imaginary drugs. An investigation by USA TODAY in 2014 found that the stings overwhelmingly targeted minorities. At least 91% of the people agents charged nationwide were racial or ethnic minorities. The ATF stings are particularly sensitive because they seek to enlist suspected criminals in new crimes, rather than merely solving old ones, giving agents unusually wide latitude to select who will be targeted. “They” want as many of us in prison as possible. ATF agents operating around Chicago have arrested 94 people in the undercover stings since 2006; 91% were either black or Hispanic. The new report, prepared by Columbia Law School professor Jeffrey Fagan, found only a 0.1% chance that agents could have selected so many minorities by chance, even if they were targeting only people with criminal records that suggested they were likely to be part of a robbery crew, as ATF policies require. Those results, Fagan wrote, show that “the ATF is discriminating on the basis of race” in choosing targets for the stings. The report was filed alongside motions by a University of Chicago legal clinic to dismiss federal charges in three ATF sting cases because agents intentionally targeted minorities. That request also accuses the agency of violating its internal rules for conducting the sting when agents targeted black and Hispanic suspects, but not when they targeted whites. But “they” want us standing for the flag… Image via Shutterstock
