Ranch That Hosted Kanye’s Listening Party Bans Rappers From Property Kanye West took his energy and his business to Jackson Hole, Wyoming — an area known NOT to have a large Black presence. In a completely not shocking turn of events, it seems the community wasn’t too happy to have ‘Ye and his “kind” being all loud and happy and isht on their turf. According to The Blast , venue owner Jane Golliher says there’s no way she’s having any more rappers throw events on her property. The woman, who owns and operates the Diamond Cross Ranch in Moran, Wyoming where Kanye flew out 400 of his friends, associates, and members of the media for his “‘Ye” listening bash, claims that the event was the most confusing thing she’s ever been a part of. She says that Kanye’s event was originally supposed to be held indoors, but the rapper changing his mind “every 30 minutes” eventually that led to the speakers being carted outside and music blasted at extensively high decibels, causing near-instant calls and complaints from nearby lodges. Kanye also reportedly claimed that the event would wrap up around 10 pm…but he didn’t actually get started until 9:30 pm, and violated the noise ordinance in the area. Either way, Jane Golliher claims she has no beef with Kanye, but wishes she had charged the rapper $50,000 or more to have the event in her space and insists that no more rappers will be holding anything on her land. She says she’s open to a “day concert” that falls in line with noise levels, and only features “good music.” There’s that middle America ‘Ye loves so much. We guess he can forget about having any more events out in those peaceful white mountains… Getty/Instagram

Image via Getty Crocodile Kills Paster During Baptism In Lake No good deed goes unpunished and never has that been more true than in this story. According to BBC , a pastor Docho Eshete was cleansing souls for the Lord above when the devil came out his hole to f*** s*** up. “He baptised the first person and he passed on to another one. All of a sudden, a crocodile jumped out of the lake and grabbed the pastor,” local resident Ketema Kairo told the BBC. Folks on the scene tried their damnedest to save Eshete by using fishing nets to keep the croc from submerging the holy man completely. No dice. Croc escaped. Pretty gruesome way to go out. God bless him. R.I.P.
Cheif Keef Shot At In NYC Cheif Keef literally dodged a bullet during his latest visit to NYC this weekend. According to TMZ , shots were fired Keef’s way around 6am outside the W Times Square. Shell casings were discovered, and cops are on the hunt for two black males spotted fleeing the scene, wearing all black hoodies. Thankfully, none of the shots fired connected, and Keef walked away unharmed. Mind you…this incident comes hot on the heels of Tekashi 69 publicly giving Chief Keef and fellow rapper Lil Reese 48 hours to murder him. Yes, you read that correctly. The rainbow-haired instigator went on a full rant against the drill duo, even causing his female companion to grab her pooch and get off the scene to avoid subsequent heat. Now we’re not pointing ANY fingers here, but all this smack talk doesn’t exactly foster an environment of peace in the NYC streets. Besides, 69 is reportedly in LA after giving that ultimatum to someone visiting his city… Anyway, thankfully Keef is okay! Hopefully, he’ll stay safe for the remainder of his time in NYC.

Bexar County Sheriff’s Office Prosecutors Claim This Woman Murdered Her Nephew After Their Affair Authorities had been called to the Abdelaziz family’s home along in San Antonio seven times before the fatal stabbing of Mohammed Abdelaziz, according to KENS–That was in August 2016. The man’s aunt by marriage, Andira Abdelaziz, has since been charged with stabbing Mohammed in the back that fateful day. Andira’s marriage to Mohammed’s uncle was arranged when she was only 14-years-old, according to the San Antonio Express-News, which is a part of the family’s Palestinian cultural tradition. During the first day of her trial on Thursday, prosecutor Clayton Hayden told the jury that 37-years-old Andira and Mohammed were having an affair for years, and that their sexual relationship played a big part in Mohammed’s murder. Mohammed entered his uncle’s home at about 8 a.m. the day he was murdered, which prompted a call where police say they were responding to a possible burglary–when they arrived, he told them everything in the home was fine, so they left. Minutes later, sheriff’s deputies were called back to the house, this time to a messier scene , WOAI reported. Mohammed had crashed his car into the front of the house, and laid dead at the wheel with a stab wound in his back…he had allegedly gotten in his car after being stabbed in an attempt to flee the scene. The prosecutor accused Andira on Thursday of stabbing Mohammed to keep their affair a secret. “He sent some texts suggesting that he was going to reveal the romantic relationship to the family,” Hayden said, adding that the revelation of such infidelity would have been a disgrace to a family that adheres to Palestinian cultural norms. If convicted, Andira Abdelaziz faces up to life in prison.

Pusha T Responds To Drake With Diss Track Welp, that didn’t take long. Just a few days after Drake viciously fired back at Pusha T’s light shade toward him on his new project, Pusha T came back with assault rivals blasting mercilessly. On his new diss track, “The Story of Adidnon” Pusha raps over Jay-Z’s “Story Of O.J.” with scathing rhymes about Drakes’ father leaving him and his mother at the age of 5, teases Drake about having a baby with a known vixen/porn star and never publically addressing it , and even mocks his producer Noah “40” Shebib’s battle with Multiple Sclerosis. It’s…a lot. Take a listen: Sheesh. It’s hard to say what’s going too far with a rapper willing to reference Whitney Houston’s additction problems on his album cover …but we guess all’s fair in war and hip-hop! What do you think of Pusha’s retort? Do y’all think Drake is okay?? Getty
