Offset got the drip from a popular jeweler in L.A. but hasn't squared his tab with the guy in over a year ... according to a new suit.

Peter Marco of Extraordinary Jewels Beverly Hills is going after the Migos rapper for $47,000, for what he claims are unpaid fees from an October 2018 transaction at his store.

The legal docs -- obtained by TMZ -- include a copy of an invoice allegedly showing Offset bought some bling for $110k, but only paid $63k at the time ... leaving the balance of $47k.

According to Marco ... his legal team sent Offset a letter in early December demanding the payment within 7 days, but it looks like they didn't get it. So now, the jeweler wants the full amount ... plus interest and attorney fees.

The lawsuit also lists Quality Control Music COO Kevin "Coach K" Lee. The record label reps Migos.

We've reached out to Offset and Coach K ... no word back so far.

DMX looked right at home -- taking the stage and putting on a hell of a show -- just months after announcing he was checking himself into rehab and investing in his own future.

DMX hit Hakkasan Las Vegas Nightclub Sunday night where he performed a string of his biggest hits for fans. We're told he arrived around 2 AM with a small crew -- including his new fiancee -- and seemed fresh and energetic to mix with the crowd.

Our club sources say DMX sipped on water and smoked cigarettes before he hit the stage ... and was happy to take photos with fans.

X played all the hits, including "Ruff Ryders' Anthem," "Where The Hood At?" and "X Gon' Give It To Ya."

Justin Bieber's showing off the countless hours of artwork he's accumulated -- all over his body -- in a series of up-close and personal vids.

Bieber just shared the tattoo shots while chillin' poolside with his shirt off ... revealing his ink starting from his colorful Crocs and working his way up his legs to his torso covered in majestic animal art.

He pays extra attention to his arms, flaunting a "Make Em Pay" tat with a couple of six-shooters ... along with some religious symbols and other messages.

JB ends his full-body tour with a focus on JC -- the Jesus tattoo on his left calf.

Interestingly -- Bieber's extreme closeups don't include a good look at the tat he got earlier this month -- a giant bird plastered on the side of his neck ... but he does give a quick glimpse of the new piece.

Justin Bieber was anything but despacito on the ice over the weekend ... 'cause after the Biebs put home a goal in his pick-up hockey game, he celebrated like a mad man!!!

Watch the video ... JB's celly after tickling the twine was Tier One -- there was knuckle dragging, figure skating spins and even a sweet one-legged pose to cap it all off!!!

It's unclear where Bieber was getting in some on-ice run ... but we're all sure as hell glad someone brought the camera, 'cause Justin put on a show.

The 25-year-old scored a bunch of goals in the game ... and he even wrote of one of his saucy, behind-the-back shots, "Like my wife always says.... I got good hands."

Of course, Bieber had every right to toot his own horn ... Justin was pretty nasty on the ice -- even Quavo chimed in on the vids, saying, "That's hard."

In fact, his moves caught the attention of NHL officials ... who tweeted out Bieber's backhand themselves!!!

Madonna and her 25-year-old BF aren't exactly rushing to the altar ... but all signs point to them taking things to the next level 'cause his dad tells us SHE dropped the L word!!!

So, here's the deal ... the rumors have been swirling for months about Madonna dating Ahlamalik Williams ... one of her backup dancers. Williams' father, Drue, tells TMZ ... his son and Madge are 100% definitely an item ... and it's gotten serious.

For starters ... Drue says his son's been dating Madonna for a little over a year now. Drue says they first met back in 2015 when his son auditioned for Madonna's Rebel Heart Tour ... and Madonna personally picked Ahlamalik out of the group.

Fast-forward to September ... Madonna met her boy toy's parents in NYC after one of her shows. And, just last month ... Madonna hosted Ahlamalik's parents at one of her Ceasar's Palace shows. And, get this ... Drue says Madonna invited them to her suite ... where Madonna's personal chef cooked them all dinner.

Drue says the 61-year-old singer told them she loves their son unconditionally and wants to take care of him. Drue says, "Love has no age." He added, "My son is livin' la Vida Loca, and I'm just happy for him."

French Montana has lots to celebrate ... he's lucky to be alive after his big hospital scare, so what better way to show gratitude than to buy yourself a $1.5 million whip!!!

French got a brand new blue Bugatti delivered to his pad in Vegas Sunday night. We're told it was transported by Wires Only Luxury Car Dealer in L.A. ... using a special truck to protect it from scratches or other damage.

Our sources say French wanted the Bugatti in time for New Year's Eve to celebrate the year ahead and, presumably, the fact that he ended the year on 2 feet.

TMZ broke the story ... French was hospitalized in November after experiencing intense stomach pain and an elevated heart rate. He spent nearly 2 weeks in the hospital -- mostly in the ICU -- before being released.

While our French sources say doctors could never nail down a cause, French says he believes the medical emergency was caused by partying way too hard -- 4 countries in 4 days.

Kanye West had a lot to reflect on a year after starting his Sunday Service -- and he did that and then some in a place you might've never thought you'd see him ... Skid Row.

Ye was in DTLA this weekend holding a Sunday Service at the Union Rescue Mission on Skid Row, which is a homeless shelter that offers food and spiritual guidance for the needy. While there with his usual choir, he got on the mic at one point to do some preaching.

He got into a lot of different topics -- including how Sunday Service itself saved him since it began a full year ago. He also talked about the homeless crisis in L.A. and elsewhere ... going on to say he's had a vision for a worldwide solution. That sounds familiar, doesn't it?

At one point, Kanye also ranted a bit about "Devil-approved" and "God-approved" subjects -- and he seemed to allude to T.I.'s highly scrutinized comments from earlier this year about how he once brought his daughter to the gynecologist to make sure she was a virgin.

Swae Lee's on-again, off-again girlfriend is probably in off mode for him right now -- 'cause she says she tried breaking his windows ... and also offered cash to have his life taken.

Crazy video presumably taken and posted by the Rae Sremmurd rapper's ex, Marliesia Ortiz, made the rounds Saturday, which appears to show her recording Swae in his driveway near what's been described as his Lamborghini Urus ... which retails from $200-$300k.

In the clip she says she tried busting out his windows as she taunts him for being "broke," while Swae seemingly tells her to scram. She also had a pretty stunning caption attached ... "Someone kill him I got 20k cash for you." The vid ends with Swae leaving.

Later, she posted a message that seemed to be a 180 from what she'd just put out into the world ... saying, "I was mad and meant nothing I said. We good now u guys can chill."

It's unclear if Swae was made aware of the threatening post, or if cops were called for this incident. If they were, we know it wouldn't have been the first time for these two.

They've had a rocky relationship recently, with accusations of cheating, verbal abuse and in one case, alleged violence. Marlie got arrested in September for what cops believed to be a physical altercation that she escalated, which allegedly ended in her headbutting him.

Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes are closing out their 2019 Extreme PDA World Tour in grand fashion.

Camila and Shawn hit up Chubby's Jamaican kitchen in Toronto Friday night, and they couldn't keep their hands or lips off each other. It's clearly super cold up there, because they really bundled up before leaving the restaurant at around 9 PM.

They stayed for more than 2 hours ... drinking red wine and eating big, green salads.

Lots of people questioned if this was a real relationship or just a promotion for their song, "Senorita." Camila and Shawn actually leaned into the conspiracy theory by posting this video of a super-awkward kiss.

YK Osiris won't be missing out on any studio time on the West Coast as he deals with the aftermath of his arrest for aggravated assault on the East Coast.

The singer says he needs to travel back and forth from California to Georgia over the next three months for recording sessions ... and, according to new legal docs obtained by TMZ, a judge in Atlanta just gave him the green light to travel outside the state for work.

As we first reported ... YK Osiris was arrested last month after allegedly beating the crap out of his girlfriend at his own birthday party. Osiris maintains his innocence and claims he never touched the woman, adding he has witnesses to back him up.

YK has NOT been charged with a crime, but he's still got an open court case stemming from the alleged incident ... and that's why he needed a judge's permission to leave the state.

It's eerie for sure ... George Michael's sister died on Christmas Day ... exactly 3 years after the singer himself died.

Melanie Panayiotou was found dead in her London home by her sister, Yioda. The cause of death was not revealed, but cops say it's not being treated as suspicious. Police would not elaborate.

55-year-old Melanie was close to her famous brother, who died on Xmas Day 2016, at age 53. He was also found dead in his home. The cause of death was dilated cardiomyopathy, myocarditis and a fatty liver.

Kris Jenner may have cleverly blown the lid off the latest version of Yeezys.

KJ was tooling around St. Barts Thursday ... looking super chic in all black. Now, check out the kicks ... sure looks like the latest Yeezy prototype.

Kanye West was seen earlier this year wearing a similar design to Kris' shoes. We're told the newest version will go for around $220 a pop.

It's unclear if the male and female versions will be the same. Kris' shoes seem to be a low-ankle version of what Ye was wearing.

There have been 2 recent Yeezy releases -- 2 versions of Yeezy Boost 350 ... Yeezreel and Yecheil. They go for $200 but they're hot items and are being resold for north of $300.

The Yeezy franchise is expected to rake in $1.5 billion in sales in 2019. It's closing in on the Jordan sneakers, which pull in around $3 bil.

Vic Mensa says rappers are doing serious harm when their lyrics promote lean, Percocet and Xanax abuse -- 'cause it's killing kids, in general, and specifically ... Juice WRLD.

We got Vic out at Delilah in WeHo and wanted his take on Lil Pump dropping "Drug Addicts" from his setlist at L.A.'s Rolling Loud Festival ... and instead opting for a tribute with Juice's hit single, "Lucid Dreams."

Vic gave a nod to Pump for the gesture, but he added hip-hop needs to take responsibility for Juice WRLD's death. He pulls no punches, saying rap lyrics glorifying drugs sends a dangerous message to fans ... especially young ones.

As we reported ... Juice WRLD died after allegedly swallowing a bunch of pills, and suffering a fatal seizure. Vic says Juice dying at 21 has impacted him to the point he's gonna rework his lyrics.

Rich Homie Quan is off the hook in his seemingly endless drug case.

According to legal docs obtained by TMZ ... the drug case against the rapper has been tossed. RHQ's lawyer, Lucy Bell, tells TMZ it was dismissed due to a lack of evidence. Bell says the "tiny amount of marijuana" was in somebody else's pocket and RHQ was wrongfully accused. We've reached out to prosecutors to confirm that ... so far, no word back.

TMZ broke the story ... Rich Homie Quan and his crew were busted back in May 2017 in Wadley, GA on suspicion of a stolen gun and drugs. A few days later, the weapons charge was dropped but he was booked on felony possession of drugs with intent to distribute.

If convicted, he faced up to THIRTY YEARS in prison. But, Homie don't play that .. lucky for him, the case was officially dropped after the judge signed off.

Kanye West's legal drama with EMI is NOT going away ... cause the once close-to-being-done case over a contract dispute is suddenly and officially back on.

According to new legal docs, obtained by TMZ ... the judge in the case has signed off on EMI's request to officially reopen the case. EMI -- which has been battling Kanye in federal court over his publishing deal since earlier this year -- back in September told the court it and Kanye had struck "an agreement in principle" to settle the case.

The court then tossed the suit with prejudice but said the case could be reopened if either party showed good cause. The deadline to reopen the case was December 27 ... so just a few days ago, EMI's lawyers wrote a letter to the judge saying "unfortunately the parties have been unable to finalize the terms of the settlement agreement."

Translation: the deal fell apart ... so it's back to square one.

Blueface and his crew are in the crosshairs of cops who have opened a criminal investigation stemming from their involvement in a brutal beatdown.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... the LAPD has opened an assault with a deadly weapon probe because at least 1 person went to the hospital complaining of injuries after he was brutally kicked.

Sources tell us the deadly weapons allegedly used by the attackers were their feet. We're told at least 2 people have gone to police to file a report ... which triggered the probe. We're told Blueface is NOT a named suspect ... at least not yet.
