Suge Knight Arrested For Stealing Paparazzo's Camera
You would think that after being shot multiple times that Suge Knight would stay out of trouble. But alas, this is not the case. On Wednesday (Oct. 29), the former rap impresario, along with comedian Katt Williams, was arrested for allegedly stealing a paparazzo’s camera back in September.
Williams was arrested in Inglewood, Calif., before a hearing on a separate assault case, and Knight was arrested in Las Vegas. Both men were charged with one count of robbery stemming from the Sept. 5 incident, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Prosecutors claim that Knight and Williams stole a camera from an “independent celebrity photographer” outside of a studio in Beverly Hills, Calif.
Because Knight has a previous conviction of assault with a deadly weapon, he is looking at 30 years to life in prison in the robbery case. Williams faces seven years in prison if convicted.
Prosecutors are seeking bail be set at $1 million for Knight and $75,000 for Williams, according to the district attorney’s office.
This is not looking good for both Knight and Williams. Let’s hope the case gets resolved without the men serving some real serious prison time.

Rapper Bandman Kevo Charged in 'Cracking Cards' Scam
Law enforcement in Chicago have cracked the case on a growing scam called “cracking cards.” Authorities have arrested 19 people, including rapper Bandman Kevo, in connection to the crime and are searching for 10 more people.
According to U.S. Attorney Zachary Fardon, the men are accused of allegedly soliciting people on social media, mostly on Facebook, and convincing them to give up their debit card information and pin number.
After obtaining a debit card and pin, they deposit money via a phony check at the ATM, or on a smartphone app. Then they withdraw the funds from the ATM before the bank realizes the check is a fraud.
The “cracking cards” scheme has cost banks millions of dollars and the victims are left paying the price for their unfortunate mistake.
“Our purpose today is to warn bank customers that fast-cash schemes are usually too good to be true and they should always safeguard their account information,” said Fardon in a statement to the Chicago Tribune.
In Chicago, the scheme was allegedly operated by a rap group called the Rack Boyz. The members would post videos on social media, including a rap video titled ‘For the Money,’ referencing cracking cards and flashing wads of cash.
Rapper Bandman Kevo, real name Kevin Ford, appeared in a rap video with the Rack Boyz and has posted numerous photos of himself on social media flashing cash, wearing expensive jewelry and holding guns.
Authorities say that Kevo allegedly became a recruiter in the scam and sent out numerous Facebook ads looking to dupe people into giving him their bank account numbers.
One investigator said over 1,000 people have reported being victims of the cracking cards scheme in Chicago over the past two years.The cardholders were often naive college students looking to make a quick buck.
Let this be a valuable lesson for our readers: Do not give out your bank information, pin number or social security number to anyone on the Internet offering a fast-cash guarantee.

Danity Kane Deliver Feel-Good 'Rhythm of Love' Video
Danity Kane are bidding farewell as a group with their new album, ‘DK3,’ but the love isn’t lost in their new video for ‘Rhythm of Love.’
The group called it quits earlier this year when member Dawn Richard allegedly punched Aubrey O’Day. However, there’s no room for ill will in the Dan Fisher-directed clip. The concept centers on that fleeting moment when someone first catches your eye and you finally muster up enough courage to make a move.
Everyone from a guy dressed as Spider-Man on Hollywood Boulevard to a pool boy attempt to get the attention of the lady they’re eyeing.
Overall, the video has an upbeat feel, which has a lot to do with the sunny feel and the beautiful California imagery highlighted. Plus, everyone seems extra happy, which makes the clip fun to watch.
‘DK3′ was released earlier this week, and has already scored the No. 1 position on iTunes’ R&B chart, which clearly shows the breakup isn’t stopping their momentum.

With the road to ‘Cadillactica’ in full effect, Big K.R.I.T drops another smooth banger with ‘Soul Food’ featuring legendary producer Raphael Saadiq.
K.R.I.T. follows up the Rico Love-assisted official first single ‘Pay Attention’ and the vibrant ‘Cadillactica’ with a soulful Saadiq-produced nostalgic track. The rapper takes it back to the sticks of Mississippi with his beloved grandmother.

Snoop Dogg Shows Off His Artistic Side in Happy Socks Ad [VIDEO]
Snoop Dogg is more than just a veteran OG in the rap game. He’s also an artist, particularly, a painter who knows how to express himself on canvas. To coincide with his collaboration with sock maker Happy Socks, the Doggfather shows off his painting skills in a new ad.
The artsy clip, titled “The Art of Inspiration,” features Snoop and his bikini-clad assistants creating some very colorful artwork in an all-white studio. During his creative process, the veteran rhyme-slinger also talks about his inspirations while he paints.
“I’ve always felt like painting was something I wanted to do, but I just never had time to do it,” explains Snoop. “I think painting gives me an emotion like no other. I can cry while I’m painting, I can laugh while I’m painting, I can be serious while I’m painting.”
As a painter, Snoop feels free to create with his art because “there is no limit.” In other words, it makes him want to say, “Ughh!”
If you want some inspiration for your feet, Snoop Dogg is launching a line of limited-edition socks that represent three different sides of him: Painter Snoop, Rastafarian Snoop and ‘Gin and Juice’ Snoop.
The Snoop Dogg x Happy Sock exclusive box set is the perfect Christmas gift for the “G” in your family. No telling whether or not Iggy Azalea’s purchased a pair for Swaggy P.
Daniel Radcliffe Raps Blackalicious' 'Alphabet Aerobics' on 'Jimmy Fallon' [VIDEO]
By now it’s widely known that Jimmy Fallon loves all things hip-hop, especially when it comes to his late-night show, ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.’ On Tuesday (Oct. 28), the host welcomed actor Daniel Radcliffe to perform (amazingly) Blackalicious’ ‘Alphabet Aerobics,’ a song in which group member Gift of Gab raps each letter of the alphabet. Radcliffe killed it.
“Artificial amateurs aren’t at all amazing, analytically I assault animate things / Broken barriers bounded by the bomb beat / Buildings are broken, basically I’m bombarding casually create catastrophes, casualties / Canceling cats, got their canopies collapsing,” rapped the ‘Harry Potter’ star, as he completed the rhyme all the way to Z, while maintaining solid flow and good wordplay.
Fallon made the skit even better by holding a sign of each letter Radcliffe was rapping, and bounced around in his usual hyper and frenetic way. Great entertainment.
During his interview, the 25-year-old, who will be starring in two new films in 2015, said he’s always been a big rap fan, and loves artists like Eminem and England’s Plan B.
“Initially I got into Eminem… I was the first kid in my class to learn all the words to ‘Real Slim Shady.’ I’ve always had kind of an obsession with memorizing complicated lyrically intricate and fast songs I guess. It’s a disease,” he said.
