AndA pardon has been granted to Meek Mill by Pennsylvania’s governor.

On January 12, the Philadelphia rapper posted a certificate to Instagram that was signed by Governor Tom Wolf and listed his earlier convictions and the decision to absolve him of the associated legal repercussions.

Williams which recommendation and reasons have been filed in the office of the Lieutenant Governor,” the certificate reads.

“I have taken this process very seriously — reviewing and giving careful thought to each and every one of these 2,540 pardons and the lives they will impact,” he said in a statement. “Every single one of the Pennsylvanians who made it through the process truly deserves their second chance, and it’s been my honor to grant it.”

Brinkley was accused by attorneys and other judges of “imposing illegal sentences, letting sentences to continue past their maximum date, or failing to address cases remanded to her by higher courts” after assessing her caseload.

Kid Cudi’s House Party co-stars have praised the rapper for his spotless comedic timing in addition to how seriously he took on his most recent role.

The new film’s stars, Jacob Latimore and Tosin Cole, had nothing but positive things to say about the Cleveland rapper, who plays himself in the remake of the 1990s classic, when they spoke with HipHopDX. Both actors agreed that Kid Cudi seemed a little unsure of himself as he started filming for the comedy, despite having had prior acting experiences.

“CudiKanye West Keeps Criticizing Adidas, Kid Cudi and Pete Davidson On Instagram was incredible,” said Jacob Latimore. ” We made him feel more comfortable too. It was a little nerve racking for him, but when you get those laughs after your lines you start feeling good about what you’re doing. Literally the first time we started filming we were just dying laughing.”

“He was so much fun to work with,” Tosin Cole added. “He took it so serious but he was fun to work with. He made great choices, his comic timing was impeccable. I don’t think people have seen him in this light. There was time he was doing his takes and I’d be like ‘That boy good.”

According to the plot summary for the new House Party, Latimore and Cole portray the roles of Kevin and Damon, two wannabe club promoters who are trying to find out how to make a big money to escape the repercussions of losing their jobs as house cleaners.

The imaginary home of LeBron James is the location of the best friends’ last cleaning job, so they plan to have an unlawful party there. As they attempt to execute their plan. Among the difficulties Damon and Kevin must overcome are a time-traveling DJ, a stolen championship ring, and an unruly guest list.

Keith Murray Requests Doddy to Give Him His Publication "It's For My Kids"

Keith Murray Requests Doddy to Give Him His Publication “It’s For My Kids”

/0 Comments/in /by

Keith Murray has asked that Diddy give him the publishing rights.

Murray recalled the occasion when he was asked to appear on G. Dep’s 2001 song “Special Delivery (Remix)” in one of the most recent segments of his interview with The Art of Dialogue. The Def Squad rapper acknowledged that at the time, all he saw was the $5,000 cheque Puff allegedly gave him in exchange for the rights to his verse and that he knew nothing about publishing.

They call me, ‘Yo, Murray come to the studio and do the song.’ I wrote my shit first, and the Trackmasters did the beat, and then Harve [Pierre] come, ‘Yo, Puffy wants to buy the publishing.’ Back then, I didn’t know about buying publishing. N-gga gave me $5,000 for publishing, I took the check and went and bought a Rolex from the Diamond District.”

He continued: “The song was a single, then there was a video, then it was popping. Now that shit come on, ‘Yo! This for my n-ggas dem special delivery / Bang ya head off to this, fuckin’ up your memory.’ To this day!”

Keith Murray praised Erick Sermon for having a different perspective on dealing with musicians when it came to the economic side of things, despite being duped by Puffy into foolishly giving up his publishing rights. 

“Erick Sermon was like, ‘Yo, you’re publishing is important.’ He gave me and Redman our publishing,” he said. “He never messed with our intellectual property for monetary gain. That’s one of the things the boss always gave us and showed us.” 

Murray went on to say that he needed Diddy to give him back his publishing rights so he could place it in his kids’ names and let them benefit in the long run.

“Yo Puff, I want my publishing to put it in Madison and Dolly’s name. My kids Madison and Milan because Dolly don’t need it,” he demanded. “Puff, sign this paperwork. I want my publishing Puff. Puff, it’s my publishing and I want it now! It’s my money and I want it now!”

Symba stated that he watches as many freestyles from his fellow rappers as he can to get ideas and expand his rap vocabulary. 

“I watch everyone. That’s what makes mine stand out,” he admitted. “Because anytime I go up to a platform I watch every single one. I watch they demeanor, what they was talking about and I try to find something nobody ever said and hasn’t been done. I always try to find that angle of what’s not been said and then I go in there and say it.”

Wiz Khalifa Criticizes Former Marijuana Users Who Claim Their Lives Has Changed as a Result of Quitting

Whiz Khalifa isn’t here to lecture folks who claim their lives are more better after they quit smoking.

On Wednesday, the Taylor Gang rapper posted the PSA on his Instagram Story (January 11). While he’s open to the idea that quitting can be life-changing, he won’t hear it from anyone unless they’ve been off the herb for at least a decade. 

Check this out: “if you smoked weed for the majority of your life and you just stopped smoking weed, don’t try to convince everybody that your life has changed so much just ‘cause you quit smoking weed, dog,” Wiz began. “That shit – it don’t happen that fast. Tap in about 15 years when the effects really kick in. A year, a couple days, a few months… That ain’t long enough to see no progress, fam. Straight up.”

“And if you wasn’t getting shit done off of weed, it’s probably just ‘cause you don’t know how to get shit done,” he he continued. “Some people eat too much and they get fat. You gotta know how to moderate that shit. So if you been smoking 10-15 years, tap in 15 years later if you not smoking weed and then make a fucking video.” 

And it’s not just recent weed-quitters who Wiz Khalifa doesn’t have mercy for. He also takes no prisoners on the basketball court – even when his opponent happens to be his own kid. 

In a recent viral video, Wiz is seen playing basketball with his son Sebastian and his friend Shawn, and he dominates the game with ease – replete with smack language.

During the 1-on-2 pickup game, Wiz is heard taunting the kids saying, “Got ’em” and “Ya’ll don’t want none.”

In the caption of video, Wiz wrote: “No I aint taking easy on them. Kids be talking shit.”

“That was probably the darkest time of my life,” he said. “I was homeless, pretty much. I had dropped out of school. I didn’t know if I was going to succeed as a musician. I didn’t know if I was going to be able to live to see tomorrow.

“And I remember I somehow got to see the film in theaters. I don’t know how I got in. It was such an escape from my real life that the film is tattooed in my brain.” 

He added that being able to contribute to the continuation felt like a full-circle moment for him.

“They told me they had one name on the list to do the song and it was me,” The Weekend said. “It’s a full-circle moment for me to be a part of something like this, because it is such an important film for me.”
