Future ain’t having it and is countersuing Rocko after the A1 boss first took his “U.O.E.N.O.” collaborator to court to the tune of $10 million, according to TMZ.
The Dirty Sprite MC says that not only are Rocko’s claims
that he went behind A1’s back in signing with Epic Records false, but
Rocko is actually the one who owes him money for recording costs and
advances. Future is reportedly seeking $10,000 per album.
In his initial suit,
which was filed in June, Rocko said that Future breached his exclusive
contract with A1 by signing with Epic, who was just supposed to be in
charge of distribution for his A1 albums. So he sought $10 million from
the “Commas” rapper.
This is a far cry from when the two were buddies and were supposed to make a joint album together in 2013. Well, it appears Rocko ain’t no Aubrey Graham.
Future is also facing legal trouble from his baby mama Ciara. She sued him for $15 million in February for defamation. In the long court battle, Future countersued her, but dropped his case after he was awarded joint custody of their son.
Although Lil Wayne’s first client with Young Money Sports, linebacker Reggie Northrup, is currently an NFL free agent, Wayne promises success for those at his newfound sports agency.
While sitting down with Bleacher Report, the Young Money Sports founder, who was rumored to work with soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo, spoke on why he chose to create his own sports agency. According to Wayne, it was simply meant to be.
“It felt like something that I was supposed to do,” Lil Wayne said.
“I also understood that you could actually help these people, these
athletes. You can help them off the field, off the court. And once I
figured that out, that’s what I aimed to do…Success is promised over
here.”
Shortly after signing with Young Money Sports, Reggie Northrup faced his first career setback. In May of this year, it was reported that the Washington Redskins waived Northrup after initially signing the former Florida State University linebacker.
In addition to sharing the details of how Weezy approached him with
his Young Money Sports offer, Northrup also touched on the importance of
the support he’s received from the agency.
“It wasn’t really an approach like that,” Northrup said. “He told me
how he felt. And we just went from there. I was down for the cause. I
look up to Wayne. I listened to a lot of his music growing up. I feel
extremely confident…He got my back. They behind me regardless of what
happens. I got that support. That’s all that matters really.”
Jay Z has found success as rapper-turned-sports agent with his Roc Nation Sports representing Dez Bryant, Kevin Durant and several others.
Only time will tell how Wayne’s roster grows and flourishes.

The Internet – Meek Mill thought The Game’s jabs at him in his “92 Bars” diss track were corny, especially because he used it to promote his forthcoming album, 1992. The
Compton, California rapper, who has become somewhat of a modern street
legend, shouldn’t need to resort to these antics to sell albums, right?
The since-deleted Instagram post shows Meek and his girlfriend Nicki
Minaj. The Philly rapper is holding up two birds mocking The Game’s
suggestion that he was going to give Minaj the “pool stick.”
The Game wasted no time in firing back to the original Twitter
Fingers and posted a picture of himself as Nicki Minaj’s love interest
in her “Pills and Potions” video. “The last time Nicki held a REAL NIGGA,” he writes for the caption along with calling Meek Mill a snitch and a rat.
Meek Mill took to the comments section to warn the Compton rapper not to use those terms lightly.
Meek then fired off two other shots, blasting The Game for his
appearance on the dating show, “Change of Heart” and mocking him for his
eggplant selfies, which made Instagram threaten to take down his account. Both of those were deleted as well, but screenshots are below in all their glory.
The Game wasn’t done yet, either. Another post includes a reference to Drake’s “Back to Back” Meek Mill diss track where Drizzy raps “shoutout to all my boss bitches wifin’ niggas.”
Meek Mill has also endured the social media wrath of 50 Cent after the G-Unit general took Drizzy’s side in their beef. Mill tried to hold his own, but 50’s IG game buried Minaj’s man.
The Dreamchasers boss was the one who used social media to ignite beef in the first place when he tweeted that Drake used a ghostwriter for his verse on Meek Mill’s “R.I.C.O.” track. That war still wages on.
But The Game is no stranger to social media beef either. Ask Waka Flocka Flame, Young Thug and Stitches.
New York, NY – In Bobby Shmurda‘s and Rowdy Rebel‘s first interview since they took their plea deal for a 7-year prison sentence,
Bobby explains exactly why they chose to take the deal, which came with
charges of 4th-degree murder conspiracy and 2nd-degree criminal weapons
possession, as opposed to facing a jury of his peers.
“I did it for Rowdy,” Bobby says in the exclusive interview with Complex.
“They offered me five and offered Rowdy 12. They said the only way
they’ll give him seven is if I took seven too. So, you know, I had to
take one for the dawgs.”
“There’s a lot of negativity, people saying, ‘Oh, they never should
have took seven years, it’s going to be bad for their career,'” Rowdy
says. “Don’t ever judge a book by its cover. Don’t be out there saying
shit when you don’t know the outcome of the shit. We’ll be home in our
twenties. We’re still young, we’re still active, still them niggas
Shmurda, born Ackquille Pollard, believes that the judge wasn’t
playing fair in their sentencing and claims there was a lot of lying
going on between the D.A. and detectives.
“The only witnesses the DA had against us were lying cops,” the 22-year-old “Hot Nigga” rapper
says. “We had detectives lying, saying they seen us with guns in our
hands, but when everything came back there was no DNA, no fingerprints,
no nothing.”
They avoided going to court in Manhattan, as advised by their lawyer,
because they believed race would play a factor in the outcome when it
comes to the word of a black kid versus the word of a white cop. Shmurda
further points out the hypocrisy embedded in America’s judicial system.
“I copped out to seven years for a gun charge when this is my first offense,” the Brooklyn native
says. “That’s how America is. They got these kids running around with
rape charges getting six months and they wanna give me seven years for a
gun charge.”
In 2014, Bobby Shmurda and Rowdy Rebel along with other members of the GS9 crew,
caught conspiracy, gun, and drug charges with a bail set at $2 million.
Last week, Rowdy and Bobby took a plea deal that would allow them to
serve seven years including time served. They also have an opportunity
to cut time off for good behavior.
In the meantime, Bobby and Rowdy stay busy playing basketball, working out and listening to the latest music like Lil Uzi Vert, Kodak Black and A Boogie.
“Should be home in about three years,” Bobby asserts. “This shit ain’t about nothin’.”
“I’m here, I’m alive, I’m breathing, I’m going to go home real soon,”
Rowdy adds. “And we’re going to go right back to where we came from.”
