So word is Fabolous knocked Ray J the f**k out at the Mayweather vs. Ortiz fight in Vegas this past weekend. This is just one of many celebrity fights to have occurred over in the past few years. Is it me or aren’t these fights always the most random match ups we never expect? Sometimes celebrities fight over real issues and other times it’s just the dumbest things you can ever imagine. TUD has decided to compile a list of the top 10 celebrity fights that have played out in the public and on the blogs. Check out the list below! 10. Usher Vs. Bobby Brown- Now this was not a real fight but the blogs were buzzing about Usher and Bobby Brown getting into an altercation. We would love to see two of R&B greats go at it as if they were really competing for the title but that was not the case. Bobby Brown attended Usher’s birthday party where he greeted Usher who was so happy to see him, he put Bobby in a headlock. Bobby tried to tell Usher he could not breathe but Usher couldn’t hear him over the loud music. Bobby then picked Usher up holding him over the DJ booth when Usher’s security came to his rescue. 9. Foxy Brown Vs. Jacki-O – Foxy is considered the most controversial female rapper of all time. So no one is surprised when she gets into fights. Back in 2005, Foxy Brown and Jacki-O got into a fight down in Miami. Rumor is Jacki-O and rapper, Gravy, were in the studio recording when Foxy Brown showed up along with her nasty attitude. Jacki-O, who wishes she could have a rap career like Foxy once had, was not feeling how shady Foxy was being and put feet on her. Check out the video where Jacki-O speaks on the altercation and Foxy’s response saying it never happened and Jacki-O was just fishing for free press. Jacki-O later released a diss record aimed at Foxy titled “TKO.” 8. Joe Budden Vs. Raekwon- We all know Joe Budden loves having drama played out on cameras. He somehow believes it will help his brand and he will one day go platinum.  The beef started with Joe Budden talking trash about being better than Method Man. Now you already know the Wu is going to hold it down. At Rock The Bells 09, someone in The Wu-Tang’s camp swung on Joe. Of course, Joe Budden would make a video holding a ice pack to his face. Check the video out HERE . 7. Maino Vs. Yung Berg- Maino made it clear that he was not being a bully. The two were on tour together at the time and Maino was even featured on Yung Berg’s “The Business” remix. Yung Berg approached Maino at a club in Atlanta. “I heard you was talking reckless about me” is what Yung Berg said to Maino. Being from the streets of Brooklyn, Maino open handed slapped him. Check out the audio where Maino speaks on what happen. 6. Ne-Yo Vs. Jim Jones- This is a rare match up that we never saw coming. The fight took place at the Louis Vuitton store on 5th Avenue in New York City. Word is one of Jim Jones’ goons made a disrespectful comment about Jay-Z to Ty Ty, who is Jay’s best friend, and when Ty Ty responded things got crazy. A source told MTO that someone had a Prada shoe on Ne-Yo’s neck. Sounds like a serious brawl doesn’t it? No one suffered any major injuries. Charges against Jim Jones were pressed and he later appeared in court and was issued a Desk Appearance Ticket. Jim Jones says he was lucky not to have received any time behind bars. 5. Ray J Vs. Fabolous- We never saw this one coming. Ray J and Fabolous scrapping down after the Mayweather vs. Ortiz fight is just hilarious. Now the fight is rumored to be instigated by 50 Cent. We all know how 50 can get the beef popping off. The altercation started off as just jokes but things got real after 50 instigated. This resulted in Fabolous hitting Ray J with a two piece and a biscuit leaving him unconscious. Word is Ray J’s jewelry was stolen in the process. Read about the full story HERE . 4. Junior Mafia Vs. Dipset- Just may be one of those classic hip hop beefs. Brooklyn Vs. Harlem if you really want to take it there. The brawl took place about 10 years ago at Ruker Park in Harlem, NY.  We still don’t exactly know how this fight got started but according to JM, Cam’ron fled the scene when things got real. Check out the video where Lil’ Cease and Junior Mafia speak on the brawl.    3. Jay-Z Vs. R. Kelly – When the best of both worlds go wrong. There were rumors of Jay-Z and R-Kelly having some disagreements while touring for their second joint album Unfinished Business . I would assume the rumors true when R. Kelly was sprayed in the face with pepper spray by Jay-Z’s best friend Tyran “Ty Ty” Smith. This occurred when R. Kelly had stopped the concert and exited the stage, claiming he saw two men with guns in the audience.  This caused Jay-Z to put an end to the tour. R. Kelly wanted to go on, but Jay had enough of R. Kelly’s wild antics and continued on without him with the help of artist like Kanye West, Foxy Brown, Mary J. Blige and Missy Elliott and more, calling the show Jay-Z and Friends.  R. Kelly later hit Jay with a $75 million breach of contract lawsuit. 2. Jay-Z Vs. Lance “Un” Rivera- Now we still don’t know the truth about this fight as Nas pointed out in his “Ether” diss. The incident dates back to December 1999 when Jay was gearing up to release “Life & Times Of S. Cater” Vol. 3. Word had got back to Jay-Z that Un was responsible for his album being leaked before the release date. Jay-Z and his entourage ran into Un at The Kit Kat Club on west 43rd street in New York City. Rumor has it during the altercation Jay-Z stabbed Lance. Later, Rivera drafted a civil suit against Jay-Z  but never filed it after the two settled out of court for about $500,000 to $1 million. 1. Diddy Vs. Steve Stoute- Nas’s “Hate Me Now” video displayed Diddy and Nas being nailed to a cross like Jesus. Diddy later did not want the world to see him like that because of his religion. Steve Stoute who was Nas’a manager at the time promised Diddy that he would have him taken out of that part of the video. The video premiered with both Nas and Diddy being nailed to a cross. This resulted in Diddy and his bodyguards breaking into Steve Stoute’s office and hit him over the head with a champagne bottle. Now what I wanna know is, did Diddy bring the champagne bottle with him or did he hit Steve Stoute in the head with his own Champagne bottle?

Nicki Minaj And Lil’ Kim Are ‘RapFix’ Favorites For A Reason

Before appearing on Wednesday’s ‘RapFix Live,’ Maino talks to Sway about the femcees’ appeal, in Mixtape Daily. By Rob Markman, with reporting by Sway Calloway Nicki Minaj and Lil’ Kim Photo: MTV News / Getty Images Celebrity Favorites: Maino Do the ladies run this mutha? After being deprived of rap femininity for a few years, it seems that women are once again a hot topic in the hip-hop conversation. Take Wednesday’s “RapFix Live” one-year anniversary show , for instance. Not only is Trina making an appearance, but in two separate pre-show fan polls, Nicki Minaj and Lil’ Kim are leading otherwise male-dominated categories. Minaj is currently leading for Best “RapFix Live” Freestyle , and the Queen Bee is the leading vote-getter in the Best “RapFix” Moment poll. It’s especially interesting considering that the two ladies were tangled in one of the biggest rap beefs of the year as well. Maino knows both Kim and Nicki, and when he appeared on Sway’s Shade 45 morning radio show, he broke down the talents of both. “I told her years ago that if I believed in any new female, I really felt like she actually had it because she rapped very feminine, she had a lot of style with her,” Maino said of his early interactions with Nicki. “I saw her coming years ago, way before her name was even Nicki Minaj. I saw her actually being able to do it.” When Maino first came into the game with his debut single “Rumors,” Lil’ Kim was an early supporter, helping him navigate his way through the industry. “Kim is legendary, man; household name that’s gonna last forever,” he said. “I just don’t think that she maintained the work ethic to maintain what we wanted her to have, and that’s to be in the spotlight continuously. Some people are not built for that 10-year run of nonstop working, like a Jay-Z.” The “Hi Hater” rapper said that, with today’s fans, the only thing that matters is current hits, and while Kim has a powerful catalog, she needs some new bangers to return her to rap prominence. “She took time off. When you take time off, you kind of hurt yourself, because in this game, they judge you by today,” he said before offering advice to his onetime collaborator: “Get back to making hot music, because at the end of the day, that’s all it is.” Catch Lloyd Banks, Maino, Trina and the Outlawz on the “RapFix Live” one-year anniversary show on Wednesday, September 14, at 4 p.m. ET on MTV.com!

Lucky Don Says Maino Inspired Him To Leave Streets For The Studio

Brooklyn spitter tells Mixtape Daily success of onetime fellow inmate Maino proved he still ‘had a chance.’ By Rob Markman, with reporting by Ade Mangum Lucky Don Photo: MTV News Fire Starter: Lucky Don Brooklyn spitter Lucky Don had dreams that not even his 10-year jail bid could derail. “I knew how to rap before I went to jail,” he tells Mixtape Daily. “I always knew how to rap.” With the chips stacked against him, Luck found inspiration in BK rapper Maino , whom he met while the two were locked up in New York’s Gowanda Correctional Facility. (Luck was found guilty of shooting at a police officer.) “Me seeing him grow made me feel like I had a chance,” he said. With his mixtape grind in full swing after dropping last year’s DJ Self-hosted The Voice, Don linked up with his friend Maino, as well as Bronx rapper Fred the Godson on the TY Fyffe-produced “Let’s Go (Remix).” The original version of the song featured Luck by himself, and, at first, he set out to deliver his hardest raps over the bouncy club beat. But then he received a bit of friendly advice from the “Hi Hater” MC. “We met up on Atlantic and Bedford [in Brooklyn], I pulled up, put the CD in the car and we were just sitting in his car just listening to the beat over and over again,” Luck recalled. “He was like, ‘Nah, my dude; nah, son. This ain’t one of those beats — later for all that rap stuff right now.’ ” At Maino’s urging, Luck switched up his flow to something that matched the beat. The song soon became so big on New York’s underground that Maino agreed to jump on the remix. Now Don, who’s set to release his second mixtape, The Difference, in June, is finally seeing his dreams come to fruition. “I can’t even lie, I love music, I always loved music. I ain’t gonna sit here and front like, ‘I’m a street n—a and I never really wanted to do this.’ This is what I wanted to do. That other Luck that was locked up and all that, I left him back there. I came home to do music.” For other artists featured in Mixtape Daily, check out Mixtape Daily Headlines . Related Artists Maino
