2008-01-10 04:15:00
(Allhiphop) Compton, CA rapper The Game appeared in L.A. County Superior Court today (January 9) stemming from charges that he assaulted a man and pulled a gun on him during a game of basketball. The rapper previously pleaded not guilty to the charges. Today, the rapper appeared in court, where a judge set a trial date of February 4. Lawyers for The Game also claim that the LAPD has refused to give back $44,000 dollars that was confiscated during a May 2007 raid of the rapper?s Glendale, California home. The Game, born Jayceon Taylor, is accused of assaulting a rival player during a game of pickup basketball at the Rita Walters Educational Learning Complex in South Los Angeles.

2008-01-10 04:05:00
The Associated Press reports that Sigel was ordered to serve one day in federal prison and six months in a halfway house, after he was found guilty on Wednesday (Jan. 8) of a second probation violation for taking a trip to Atlantic City, N.J. U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick also found the rapper (born Dwight Grant) guilty of being in contact with a convicted felon. As a result, Sigel?s probation, which was originally set to end next month, was extended by 18 months. The sentence is the latest setback for Sigel, who has been at the center of various legal situations in recent years. The rapper, who spent a year in federal prison on a gun charge, was later acquitted of attempted murder in September 2005, a month after being released. Later that same year, he was jailed briefly for failing to pay $27,000 in child support. In 2006, Sigel continued to stay in the eyes of the law, when he told police he was shot by men who surrounded him and stole his cash and jew...

Raz B all of a sudden changes story. Do I hear hush money? Omarion even made a newstatement about Chris Stokes. (Omarion) “I want to be on the record as saying that ‘Raz-B’ Thorton and Ricardo Thorton are lying regarding Chris Stokes. Chris is a father figure to myself, and many others in the industry. He’s guided us, helped raised us and is nothing more than an inspiration and someone I respect to and look up to. I have spent countless hours, days, weeks and months with the man since the age of 5 and have never once seen him behave inappropriately. He’s married to my aunt and I know this man very well. I stand behind him with no question whatsoever. I have grown up around Chris and this is crazy to me. These people have damaged me, and my reputation and I won’t stand silent and will do all within my means to speak the truth about this matter,” says Omarion.
