Two guys who kinda-sorta-sometimes perform with the Wu-Tang Clan rap group have been arrested in Arkansas ... on a tour bus that cops say was "filled" with marijuana smoke.
Ronald Bean (left) and Patrick Charles (right), aka DJ Mathematics and Streetlife, respectively, were busted last night after a routine traffic stop turned into a scene from "How High."
According to the police report, the officers opened the bus door and "could immediately smell the odor of burnt marijuana coming from the interior of the bus ... the bus was filled with smoke and the odor of marijuana."
The cops claim when they went onto the bus, they noticed "marijuana blunts and residue were laying in plain sight." Cops also claim they found 110 ecstasy tablets hidden inside a can and $8615 in cash.
In total, 8 men, including Math and Street, were arrested on suspicion of drug possession with intent to sell -- the bus driver was released with a speeding citation.
The Game is in a serious feud with the wrong gang of homies -- the lawyers who saved him from 5 years of hard time.
The legal team who repped the rapper in the wake of his 2007 arrest on gun charges claims Game never forked over $34,683.90 in bills for the work they did.
In the suit, filed in L.A. County Superior Court, the firm, Kinsella Weitzman Iser Kump & Aldisert, claims they even got the guy "a successful outcome."
... and since Game was facing a potential five-year sentence in state prison ... and only ended up serving eight days ... you'd think he got his money's worth.
Rap star Soulja Boy was arrested in Georgia Wednesday night after authorities say he ran from a police officer.
According to a police spokesperson, an officer got a call about juveniles hanging out at an abandoned house in the Henry County area.
Cops say when the officer rolled up to the home, he saw some women walking towards the yard and asked them to stop -- but when they didn't, he followed them into the yard.
The officer says when he walked inside, he saw roughly 40 people in the yard -- and when they saw the cop, half of the people immediately booked it out of the home, including 19-year-old Soulja Boy.
The people who stayed in the party claimed they were at the house for a "music video shoot."
The cop says Soulja eventually returned to the home to retrieve his Range Rover -- and that's when he was arrested for obstruction of justice ... a misdemeanor.
Soulja Boy, real name Deandre Cortez Way, was taken to jail and released.
Another man was arrested during the incident for forgery -- cops tell us the suspect had eight counterfeit $100 bills. Cops also say they recovered a 9mm handgun in one of the cars in the driveway of the house -- but they don't know who the gun belongs to.
The rain's rolled out, but the misery is still setting in -- now rappers Ludacris and T.I. are helping their soggy hometown get back on its feet.
TMZ has learned The Ludacris Foundationhas partnered up with Home Depot and Sam's Club to help victims of the Atlanta floods -- which City Hall officials say caused $61 million in damages and wrecked nearly 500 homes.
We spoke to a rep for the foundation, who told us Luda and T.I. are donating $10,000 each to the cause.
The Foundation's rep told us they are planning a large food bank and a gift card giveaway that could happen as soon as Friday.
Here's Amy Winehouse trying her hand at rapping -- she calls herself a "Jewmaican"... other than that, nothing in the lyrics resembles the English language.
Winehouse laid it down with her former backup singers, Zalon.
Ajile Turner, the cousin of rapper Common, was killed in a motorcycle accident in Brooklyn last night.
Sources tell us it happened on the corner of Greene Ave. and Washington Ave. We're told cops responded to a call involving a motorcyclist colliding with a guy on a bicycle -- Turner was on the motorcycle. Both men were taken to Brooklyn Hospital and both were pronounced dead on arrival.
We're told there is no criminality suspected in the incident.
DJ JS-1, a long-time friend of Turner, confirmed his passing and told us, "He was one of the greatest friends anyone could have, he was a pure, honest, good person, hard worker who traveled the world and lived a great life. We all love him and are going to miss him very much."
Turner was founder and CEO of the Echelon Group, an independent concert production company in NYC.
Rapper Lil Mama has just apologized for comments she made on "America's Best Dance Crew" this weekend -- after she went a lil too far while grilling a transgender dancer.
During the rant, Lil Mama -- a judge on the show -- told Leiomy Maldonado: "Leiomy, come on. Your behavior ... it's unacceptable ... You were born a man and you are becoming a woman. If you're going to become a woman, act like a lady ... It gets too crazy and it gets confusing."
After taking heat over her comments, Lil Mama sent the following apology to GLAAD:
"I would like to clarify anything that was misunderstood from Sunday's show. My remarks were never meant to be disrespectful regarding Leiomy's gender nor offensive to the LGBT community, which has been a community that has supported me in all my endeavors. However, in hindsight, I recognize that my words may have come across as hurtful. I spoke with her privately after the taping to express that it was not my intent to offend her or any member of the transgender community and that I still live for Vogue Evolution."
There's a bottom line to the divorce between Kelis and Nas, and it's money, money, money.
According to docs filed by Kelis' lawyer, disso queen Laura Wasser, the financial wizards have reviewed the earning of both parties to the divorce, and they've come to these conclusions.
-- Nas pulls in $244,826 a month -- Kelis rakes in a relatively paltry $13,744 a month -- Kelis should get child support totaling $17,225 a month -- Kelis should get spousal support totaling $72,728 -- Nas should pay retro child support totaling $29,522 -- Nas should pay retro spousal support totaling $281,571
Rapper C-Murder was sentenced to life in prison today after being convicted of second-degree murder earlier this week.
C-Murder -- whose real name is Corey Miller -- was convicted of shooting a 16-year-old fan in Louisiana in 2001. This was the second time that a jury convicted Miller in the case -- but a 2003 conviction was overturned. C-Murder is also the brother of rapper Master P.
Note to all rappers, having the name murder in your name may not be beneficial in court.
Method Man recently admitted to brutally shooting someone in the leg with a BB gun -- but ironically, the incident has nothing to do with the lady who happens to be suing him for an alleged air gun attack back in 2008.
In this video for VladTV.com, Method says he accidentally "shot one of [his] people in the leg with a f***ing BB" while holding target practice on his tour bus a while back. Method said the BB broke through his buddy's skin and there was "blood gushing out his damn leg."
MM claims he felt so bad about the incident he still apologizes to the guy to this day. Needless to say, the lady who's suing him is looking for far more than a sincere "I'm sorry."
50 Cent needs to wave his Magic Stick if he hopes to sell his Connecticut mega-mansion ... he just slashed the price another few million bucks in desperation.
Fiddy says he's fed up with the 2-hour, too long commute to New York City and wants to trade in the 19-bedroom, 37-bath pad for a cut down crib in the city -- it was $18.5 million, then $14.5 million and now it's only $10.9 million.
50 shelled out $4.1 million for the 17-acre estate -- but says he spent $6 million on urgent upgrades like a disco complete with stripper poles.
