- Snoop has officially been charged with possession of a deadly weapon for that baton-ish thing (apparently called a “truncheon”) he was reportedly carrying in his luggage when he attempted to board a plane. Snoop’s lawyer reportedly called the charges “bogus.”
- Details about the new Nas record Hip-Hop Is Dead emerge. Looks like the album will reportedly be coming out on December 19th, and as we know, includes about 489 different producers and collaborators including will.i.am, Snoop, the Game, Dr. Dre, Damian Marley, and Scott Storch.
- Justin Timberlake emerges victorious from the MTV Europe awards, winning two awards including best male artist and best pop act. But they still have a “best alternative act” award at this thing, so we can’t really trust their decision-making process. (Muse won that bizarre and outdated award.)
- In an interesting turn of events, five North Carolina police officers are suing the Game for defamation after the rapper compared his treatment by the officers to that of Rodney King by the L.A. police department. (Dude, that was kinda a stretch.) The original incident that took place about a year ago at a mall and resulted in the Game’s arrest for disorderly conduct.
