From TMZ:

…the “Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta” star was required to submit to a pee test in Georgia as part of his probation, stemming from a 2008 pot arrest.

Problem is … officials say Scrappy tried to turn in a urine sample that was cold to the touch … and cops believe it may have been tampered with. They refused to accept the sample … and told Scrappy to provide a fresh cup of yellow gold.

But Scrappy refused the pee demand, denied the allegations of tampering and left the premises … so officials issued a warrant for his arrest, claiming he once again violated his probation by not cooperating.

We spoke to Scrappy’s lawyer, Mawuli Mel Davis, who tells us Scrappy plans to appear in court on May 16 to address the issue — and says, “It is our hope that the Judge will recall the revocation warrant that is currently pending against Mr. Richardson.”

He adds, “Since Mr. Richardson’s release from jail, he has been reporting to probation as ordered and doing his best to comply with all conditions of probation.”

Looks like Snoop won’t be able to enjoy the holiday like he planned. From TMZ:

“Snoop Lion 420 Festival” — a giant party being held in a Hollywood Hills mansion to celebrate all things cannabis — started at 11:00 AM … but quickly crashed and burned thanks to a bunch of fuddy-duddy neighbors.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … multiple neighbors in the surrounding area complained about the noise levels and parking situation caused by hoards of weed-loving partygoers. The fact that the party didn’t have a permit didn’t help matters either.

Cops arrived and quickly shut it down, putting a kibosh on the all-night festivities.

Our sources say no one was cited and Snoop was not there.

There’s also an original version of “Bring Me Down” which is labeled “Have It Your Way”, both of these demos are believed to date back to 2001. Again with noticeably different lyrics, a more aggressive Kanye, the second verse on “Have It Your Way” – some of the lines were later used on “Whole City Behind Us”.

Kerry Rhodes’ “Assistant” Responds To Being Called A Liar

April 20, 2013 JUKEBOXDC Staff Interviews 1 Comment  

According to Baller Alert

Kerry, yet again, took to the blogs to deny being gay and insisted that Russell “Hollywood” Simpson was lying. Even worse, it seems like some threats were being made too. Needless to say, that didn’t sit well with Hollywood, so he contacted us for yet another exclusive! Check out the statement from Kerry’s camp:

“MediaTakeOut.com just got wind that Russell ‘Hollywood’ Simpson likely EMBELLISHED on the nature of his relationship with NFL baller Kerry Rhodes. Heck – he may have FLAT OUT LIED in the numerous interviews that he gave OTHER PLACES yesterday.”

We spoke with a person “IN THE KNOW” that SWEARS that Russell and Kerry were NEVER in fact in a relationship. They also went on to say that Kerry is “taking steps” to make sure that Russell will never say the ISH he said again.”
