Kodak Black Arrested Before Rolling Loud Festival Performance

Rapper Kodak Black just can’t seem to stay out of trouble. The Florida rapper was arrested yet again May 11th on another firearm violation. But this time, he embarrassed himself and disappointed his fans by being apprehended only moments before he was supposed to take the stage at Rolling Loud Festival.

Bill “Kodak Black” Kapri was arrested at the Hard Rock Stadium on Saturday by authorities in Miami. A team consisting of ATF, Miami-Dade Police Northside Gang Unit, and US Marshals were all in on the apprehension. According to the U.S. Marshals Service, Kodak was allegedly connected to a crime involving weapons. But the law enforcement agency refused to issue further comment on Kodak’s participation.

Kodak Black, who was just recently arrested for firearm and drug charges only one month ago, is treading on thin ice. While attempting to cross the US border into Canada, the rapper caught a case for second degree criminal possession of a weapon and unlawful possession of marijuana. Black is also still facing a first-degree criminal sexual conduct charge stemming from the 2016 attack of a woman following a concert. Although the date for his sexual misconduct has been continued, it was expected to take place in the spring.

Lil Wayne Cancels Performance

Following Kodak’s apprehension at Rolling Loud, Lil Wayne cancelled his set, perhaps in a show of solidarity. Lil Wayne was subject to a search by “Festival Police” The legendary rapper released a statement by way of several tweets apologizing to his fans who noted this was Wayne’s second consecutive absence from the tour. Lil Wayne stated:

To all my fans who came to see me at Rolling Loud, I’m sorry but I won’t be performing. The Festival Police (Not Rolling Loud) made it mandatory that I had to be policed and checked to get on the stadium grounds. I do not and will not ever settle for being policed to do my job and give you guys a great show. I will be at Story tonight for the afterparty and you kan katch me on tour with my bros Blink 182 this summer!

In response to the controversy, Rolling Loud has released a statement attempting to clear themselves of any connection to arresting authorities who were on the scene. Representatives from Rolling Loud abruptly stated, “He was arrested on his way to the festival and we have no knowledge of what led to the arrest since he was not on festival property.”

Neither Kodak Black nor his representation have released a statement at this time.

Rolling Ray Undergoes Surgery After Wig Catches On Fire

Published

on

Social media star Rolling Ray underwent surgery Tuesday morning to treat serious burns on his body after his terrible wig accident last week. 

In a series of IG stories, he let his audience follow along as he prepped for surgery.

Last week Rolling Ray announced he was hospitalized after his wig caught on fire! During a January 13 Instagram Live session hosted straight from his hospital bedside, he showed his severely burnt and damaged face telling viewers his “whole skin, legs, arms, feet, and everything” were burned.

In a more recent Live, Ray explained the incident that led to his whole wig catching on fire: an unfortunate smoking accident. “It just, like, lit on fire when I tried to light the cigarette,” he recounted. “So I get to trying to snatch the wig off. B***h, the fire goes to my f*****g shirt, to my feet, to my legs, to my back. It’s a fire everywhere, it’s a fire in the whole room.” 

Of course the internet trolled him in a disgusting display of ableism and heartlessness. Comments like “Rolling Ray should have stopped, dropped, and rolled” and “karma’s a b***h” had social media conflicted in its feelings about his accident. His sensation comes from his harsh and, often, below-the-belt reads (just last month he told Yung Miami to “dig (sic) up” her dead baby father. However, the criticism didn’t stop him from responding on Twitter. 

Rolling Ray might be problematic as all get-out, but we do not tolerate ableism here. We wish him well as he heals.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Are Getting Divorced, Report Says

Published

on

In a story published Tuesday evening, Page Six is reporting that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are getting divorced, with the two already in settlement talks. The news comes after the couple spent the holiday season separately – Kanye at his ranch outside Cody, Wyoming, Kim and the kids with her famous family in southern California. 

A source close to Kardashian was quoted saying, “Kim got Kanye to go up there so they could live separate lives and quietly get things sorted out to separate and divorce. She’s done.” Kardashian, 40, and West, 43, are said to be splitting because of marital problems directly related to Kanye’s very public mental health struggles.

For several years the rapper’s various antics have caused fans to worry. After coming out as a Trump supporter, West then announced his own 2020 presidential bid under a new political party: the Birthday Party. At a campaign rally in South Carolina, he was seen rambling, debating individual audience members, and at times, crying. In various interviews, he has rambled on almost incoherently, and his tweetstorms are now infamous.

For her part, Kim has always supported her husband and has openly discussed the difficulties of their marriage. Back in June, she shared on social media, “Anyone who has [bipolar disorder] or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand… People who are unaware or far removed from this experience can be judgmental and not understand that the individual (has) to engage in the process of getting help no matter how hard family and friends try.”

It appears she has finally reached her limit in the union with the unnamed source saying, “She is serious about taking the bar exam and becoming a lawyer, she is serious about her prison reform campaign. Meanwhile Kanye is talking about running for president and saying other crazy s**t, and she’s just had enough of it.”

Separately, a source close to Kanye alleges the rapper is sick of his wife and her family, which might have some truth to it since he has tweeted some pretty nasty things about them in the past. “I been trying to get divorced since Kim met with Meek at the Warldolf [sic] for ‘prison reform,’” he said in a now-deleted July tweet. Recently, he hasn’t been featured on his wife’s Instagram and has largely remained out of the public eye.

With the news yet to be confirmed, the “divorce is imminent” reports are just rumors for now. We’ll be following the news as more information comes out.
