Source: LuxxBall 2016 Birthday Celebration for the Legendary Damon held at Stage 48 Featuring: Foxy Brown Where: New York, New York, United States When: 31 Mar 2016 Credit: Derrick Salters/WENN.com Foxy Brown is having a bad week, and her PR rep has spotted the jig. After allegedly swindling a promoter out his dough for a non-performance at a New York Fashion Week party, Lizzie Grubman has a resigned from her post as the rapper’s representative. Yes, we were shocked Lizzie Grubman was repping Fox Boogie, too. As for the party in question, where she was supposed to perform with Diddy’s son Christian, it sounds like Foxy was a mess. Reports Page Six : Brown allegedly “arrived to the party at nearly 2 a.m. f - - ked up. She was slurring and she refused to perform,” an insider told Page Six. VIPs including Tiffany Haddish, Winnie Harlow, Kelly Rowland, La La Anthony and Christian Combs were at the Blond for Smith’s after-party. We’re told Brown was going to perform with Combs and was in “great spirits,” hanging out backstage with “Page Six TV” co-host Bevy Smith. “[Brown] was very excited about the fact that she had the new single out with Nicki [Minaj]. She was in a good mood,” Bevy reported on “Page Six TV.” But spies further told us Brown was later requesting vodka and “falling all over people.” But wait, that’s just a tease of the struggle. Then again, the wobbling could have been due to a wardrobe malfunction. “She had a wardrobe mishap . . . [a designer] sent her two shoes for the same foot. She was in 6-[inch] heel boots that would lace up to the knee . . . so she was kind of hobbling around, but we were talking and laughing,” said Bevy, who did not attend the party after the show. We hear that at the bash, Brown refused to perform, and promoters are now threatening to sue unless she gives back the money. So Foxy Brown was wearing two left or two right shoes at the same damn time? Bruh. Grubman confirmed that she quit but didn’t offer any additional comment. The struggle is real. — Photo: WENN.com
Source: NurPhoto / Getty Mac Miller ‘s sudden passing last week still remains something of a mystery as an official cause of death has yet to be announced. While speculation over how the young rapper died remains high, it has since come out that Miller was allegedly dead for hours ahead of his body being discovered. TMZ reports : Law enforcement sources tell us … when cops and paramedics arrived at the rapper’s home last Friday, it was clear he had died long before they got there. TMZ broke the story … friends came over the night before Mac died to hang out, and we’re told they stayed until the early hours of Friday morning, Sept. 7. Mac’s body was found Friday around noon. We broke the story … Miller died of an apparent overdose at his San Fernando Valley home. Cops say no one has come forward claiming they saw Mac alive after Thursday night. He was pronounced dead at the scene, after someone at his home called 911, saying Mac wasn’t breathing and was unresponsive. The emergency dispatch call came in as “cardiac arrest,” but apparently that’s because the person who found him may not have realized he was already dead. The outlet adds that while drugs weren’t found, a small amount of white powder was located in the San Fernando Valley home. — Photo: Getty

He recently admitted he fought his own demons when it came to drugs. In a series of tweets the So So Def Records star revealed he had a serious problem when it came to prescription-strength cough syrup. Apparently Shad was pouring up heavy about 10 years ago and it almost cost him his life. “To the youth- Stop with these dumb ass drugs. Im going to let something out.

It was summer but i was walking round with 3 hoodies on because i was so cold. I missed the chicago show of that tour baltimore show BECAUSE I WAS F***ING HIGH AND SICK!!!! that sh*t is not cool and i was doing it to be cool!” he explained. And to no one’s surprise his infamous in studio rant on BET was fueled by lean. His posts soon turned to an anti-drug PSA for teens. Moss encouraged young people to abstain from drugs and live a clean life. “Kick that sh*t! Be a good son or daughter. Be the best you. Ima start being more vocal. We gotta save the youth from going out early”. Kick that shit! Be a good son or daughter. Be the best you. Ima start being more vocal. We gotta save the youth from going out early.

Source: ATP/WENN.com / WENN Although the use of crack cocaine has dramatically dropped over the past decade and more, it’s apparent people are still using crude methods to get the drug into their system. In Suffolk County, New York, vending machines featuring alleged makeshift crack pipes cropped up and police there have been cracking down in locating and destroying them. ABC 7 New York reports : Town of Brookhaven officials and Suffolk County police are trying to figure out who placed three potential crack pipe vending machines, dubbed as pen vending machines, in Coram and Medford. The town received complaints about the machines over the weekend. Two of them — one of which had partially destroyed by community members — have been removed. The blue and white vending machines, which featured the words “Sketch Pens” on the outside in black and red font, were mounted in cement into the ground and would dispense a small glass tube and a filter. Included was the top of a pen, which could be put into the glass tube to form a pen, along with an ink tube. Local outlet Pix 11 adds in its reporting that police in and across the Town of Brookenhaven have seized three of the machines with concerns there may be more. Crude in appearance, the machines spit out pens that, when deconstructed, featured the means to put together a pipe to smoke crack for the cost of just two dollars. “There are some people who think they’re going to make some money out of this and prey on a community and promote drug use in a community,” Brookenhaven Town supervisor Ed Romaine said on Monday (Sept. 11) at a news conference. “They’re going to be sadly mistaken.” — Photo: WENN
Kanye West is back on the ‘Gram. You care. Yeezy’s first post upon his return to Instagram was a photo of a hill/mountain in Colombia. It’s seems that Mr. West is kicking it in Colombia—may be recording new material? The rest of the handful of posts so far are sketches, including one of his on again, off again, now on again friend and collaborator Cons(equence). Thus why we’re thinking he’s putting together some new tunes. Also, Tekashi69, who was in Colombia getting new teeth , which now doesn’t seem like a coincidence, got a sketch, too. Or they could just all be vacationing for the sake of it. — Photo: WENN.com
Source: Shareif Ziyadat / Getty Tekashi69 has a new reason to smile all the way to the bank. The notorious rap troll just dropped $12K for a new set of teeth—porcelain veneers actually. Hey rappers fix their teeth everyday b. TMZ reports that the “Get The Strap” rapper paid over 12 racks to Colombian dentist Dr. Mario Montoya in Santiago de Cali, Colombia—yes, the country—to undergo a 5-hour procedure for a sparking set of porcelain veneers. He reportedly had 12 teeth done up top and another 12 below. Tekashi was recently spotted in the studio with Kanye West , so take that info as you will.
