Kidd Kidd Shot In New Orleans

Damn. From Karen Civil:

One could only hope Media Takeout wouldn’t lie about something of this magnitude, but according to their report, New Orleans rapper Kidd Kidd was shot multiple times. Most will remember him from being originally featured on Lil Wayne’s 2008 Carter III smash single “Ms. Officer” as well as the original version of “Forever” with Drake and Weezy.

According to the story, Kidd was en route to his mother’s house in N’awlins when a group of individuals ran up on him shooting him multiple times in a suspected robbery attempt. It’s all hearsay at this point, and we’ll likely never know the true cause for this, but there is good news shrouded in the sea of bullets. Reports saying that he will survive this incident. So there’s your silver lining if you were looking for one.

Kidd Kidd just released his new album The Reallionaire last month.

In this interview, Sumit speaks to Masta Killa and Method Man about the first time they came to London. We speak on Steve Rifkind and whether the Wu set him up when they placed a “phantom intern” in his office.

Wiz & Amber Rose Reportedly Experience Discrimination At Barney’s

According to reports, despite spending $16k on women’s shoes for his girlfriend and their families in the store, Khalifa was not welcomed by Barneys. After his spending spree on the shoes Wiz went up to the ultra expensive men’s department floor, but instead of rolling out the red carpet for him they refused to help the poor guy! Not only did they fail to recognize him they actually thought that that he was a thief and treated him like one! It was only when somebody pointed out to them who the guy actually was that they back-tracked somewhat. – @ItsTheKidFrench
