¡¡¡Chris Brown arrastró a Tinashe por el suelo esta semana!!! Pero la cantante de "BB/Ang3l" ni se inmuta y dice que el incidente ya es agua bajo el puente...

TMZ Hip Hop se encontró con Tinashe el miércoles en Hollywood, y no parecía muy afectada por Chris, su ex colaborador, quien criticó abiertamente su discografía en respuesta a una de sus últimas entrevistas.

En caso de que no lo sepan, Tinashe dice que no tiene recuerdos positivos de su trabajo con Chris o R. Kelly, pero que el problema particular con Chris fue la pista que el sello eligió para grabar.

Tinashe no cree que Chris haya visto el clip completo, y piensa que simplemente se dejó llevar por el "click fácil" en redes sociales. Él respondió de vuelta pidiendo al público que nombrase 5 canciones de Tinashe o iban a morir ... y, claro ya tenía el cementerio listo.

Tinashe dijo que estaría abierta a tener una conversación con Chris en un esfuerzo por aclarar las cosas, pero también sugirió que no está en su lista de prioridades.

Por otro lado, está emocionada por sus próximos shows donde promete incorporar nuevas rutinas de baile para los fans.

Chris Brown gave Tinashe the dragging of a lifetime this week but the "BB/Ang3l" singer's not tripping -- she's calling the incident water under a bridge she's already driving across!!!

TMZ Hip Hop caught up with Tinashe Wednesday in Hollywood, and she didn't seem too pressed about Chris -- her former collaborator -- openly bashing her discography in response to one of her latest interviews.

ICYMI, Tinashe didn't recall having positive memories working with either Chris or R. Kelly -- but said the issue with Chris was the track the label chose for them to record.

Tinashe tells us she doesn't think Chris watched the full clip, and merely got sucked into social media clickbait. He fired back by asking the public to name 5 Tinashe songs to save their life ... and already had the graveyard mapped out.

Tinashe said she'd be open to having a conversation with Chris in an effort to clear things up, but also suggested it's low on her priority list.

On the other hand, she is excited about her upcoming shows where she promises to incorporate new dance routines for fans.

Before this cute girl with bangs "dug her key into the side of a pretty little souped-up four-wheel drive," she was just diggin' in the dirt and getting her hands dirty in the garden, singing at her local church and growing up in Checotah, Oklahoma.

Aside from this girl dressed in green evolving into an "American Idol" queen, she has since taken home 8 Grammys and is the face (and voice) of Sunday Night Football! Some hot music stars she's collaborated with include Miranda Lambert and Brad Paisley.

Need one more hint? "Before He Cheats!"

Antes de que esta guapa chica con flequillo se dedicara a cantar, pasaba sus días cavando en la tierra, ensuciandose las manos en el jardín, cantando en su iglesia local y a crecer en Checotah, Oklahoma.

Además de convertirse en la reina de "American Idol", esta chica vestida de verde se ha llevado a casa 8 Grammys y es la cara (y la voz) del Sunday Night Football. Algunas de las estrellas musicales con las que ha colaborado son Miranda Lambert y Brad Paisley.

Peso Pluma isn't gonna take any chances with the Mexican cartel ... canceling next month's show in Tijuana after death threats made to the singer were spotted in the city.

The cancellation was announced on Instagram Wednesday -- music labels Double P Records and Prajin Music Group said in a statement, "Our goal is to protect the fans and the team. For the safety of everyone involved, we will cancel our show in Tijuana."

As we reported, it's been a week since the 24-year-old singer was in the cartel's crosshairs ... when banners were spotted within the city, warning Peso to not come to Tijuana and perform.

They read, "This goes to Peso Pluma, refrain from presenting yourself on October 14, because it will be your last show due to your disrespect and loose tongue." Seems the message was received loud and clear.

The threat was signed by the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, an organization based in the city where Peso was born.

Peso Pluma no va a correr ningún riesgo con el cartel mexicano. El cantante acaba de cancelar el show del próximo mes en Tijuana después de recibir amenazas de muerte.

La cancelación se anunció este miércoles en Instagram. Los sellos discográficos Double P Records y Prajin Music Group dijeron en un comunicado: "Nuestro objetivo es proteger a los fans y al equipo. Por la seguridad de todos los involucrados, cancelaremos nuestro show en Tijuana".

Como bien informamos, ha pasado justo una semana desde que el cantante de 24 años recibiera amenazas de parte del cartel, cuando diversas pancartas en la ciudad le advertían que no viniera a actuar a Tijuana.

Las advertencias decían: "Esto va para ti Peso Pluma, abstente de presentarte el día 14 de octubre porque será tu última presentación, esto por irrespetuoso y lengua suelta. Te presentas y te vamos a partir toda tu madre. Att CJNG”, decía el mensaje, y parece que fue recibido fuerte y claro.

La amenaza fue firmada por el Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generación, una organización con sede en la ciudad donde nació Peso.

Diddy's not just gonna stop with an R&B album, he's got a hip hop project on the way ... so says his son, Christian "King" Combs, who says he's gonna be featured on the thing!!!

TMZ Hip Hop connected with Christian and Raven Tracy in NYC Wednesday where he explained his absence from his dad's new LP "The Love Album: Off The Grid."

The album features a ton of big names --  MJB, The Weeknd, Ty Dolla $ign and a handful of notable rap stars -- but King says his lyrical talents are better suited for the next go 'round.

Christian and Raven were actually en route to a back-to-school drive when we caught them -- complete with his newly minted Key to the City.

Tory Lanez fue enviado a North Kern State Prison el miércoles para comenzar a cumplir su condena por el caso de disparo contra Megan Thee Stallion, y parece que allí es donde se quedará, a menos que su equipo legal sea capaz de sacarlo mientras apela a su condena.

Hemos indagado que la instalación de seguridad que alberga a más de 4.000 reclusos, será donde Tory pasará al menos los primeros meses de su sentencia de 10 años. Aunque el lugar ha hecho noticia en el último tiempo.

Los reportes locales revelan que el asesino en serie y convicto Ramón Escobar, fue acusado de asesinato en primer grado después de presuntamente matar a su compañero de celda a principios de este año. Juan Villanueva, de 53 años, cumplía condena por agresión sexual con agravantes a un menor cuando fue hallado muerto en su celda en febrero.

Además, el 4 de julio, Ricardo Saldivar, de 25 años, fue encontrado muerto en su celda, y los funcionarios del Departamento de Correcciones y Rehabilitación de California están investigando la muerte como un homicidio.

Además este mismo mes, un ex recluso y delincuente sexual convicto fue declarado culpable en relación con un incidente ocurrido en 2020 en el que fue acusado de atacar a un par de funcionarios de prisiones.

La instalación está equipada con una valla eléctrica alrededor del perímetro, pero varios reclusos se han escapado en los últimos años, según los informes.

Tory Lanez is officially on the inside ... ensconced at the prison where he'll likely spend the next 10 years, and the facility is no cakewalk, as multiple murders have happened there just this year.

North Kern State Prison in Delano, California houses around 4,000 inmates, and recently became the focus of local news media after a vicious crime within its walls.

Reports say convicted serial killer Ramon Escobar was recently charged with first-degree murder after allegedly killing his cellmate, 53-year-old Juan Villanueva back in February.

Villanueva was locked up for aggravated sexual assault of a child.

Additionally, on July 4, 25-year-old Ricardo Saldivar was found dead in his cell, and officials with the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation are now investigating his death as a homicide.

There's also violence with inmates and correctional officers ... just this month a former inmate and convicted sex offender was found guilty in connection to a 2020 incident where he was accused of attacking a pair of staffers.

The facility is fitted with an electric fence around the perimeter ... but several inmates have reportedly been able to escape over the years.

Ariana Grande and Dalton Gomez are well on their way to finalizing their divorce, with only a few more details to hammer out, and we've got their full filings to check out.

TMZ broke the story, Ariana filed for divorce from Gomez Monday, and he filed his response almost immediately. Our sources said Ariana and Dalton have been super cordial through their divorce proceedings, working with care and respect behind the scenes to make sure most things were sorted out before actually filing the documents.

Ariana notes the two have a prenup in her filing, writing, "There are additional separate property assets and obligations of each party as mandated by the parties' Prenuptial Agreement."

Dalton's response filing almost totally mirrors Ariana's divorce docs -- both listing their date of separation as February 20, 2023.

As we first told you, even though there's a prenup in place, Ariana will still cut Dalton some sort of cash check ... but it won't be a crazy amount.

Ariana Grande y Dalton Gomez están muy cerca de finalizar su divorcio, con solo unos cuantos detalles más por pulir, y tuvimos acceso a sus archivos completos para comprobarlo.

TMZ dio la noticia, Ariana Grande solicitó el divorcio este lunes, y Goméz presentó su respuesta casi inmediatamente. Nuestras fuentes nos dijeron que Ariana y Dalton han sido súper cordiales durante todo el procedimiento de divorcio, actuando con cuidado y respeto detrás de cámara para asegurarse de que gran parte de las cosas estén resueltas antes de presentar realmente los documentos.

Ariana señala que los dos tienen un acuerdo prenupcial en sus documentos, y escribe: "Hay activos adicionales de propiedad separada y obligaciones de cada parte según lo dispuesto por el Acuerdo Prenupcial de las partes."

La respuesta de Dalton refleja casi totalmente los documentos de divorcio de Ariana. Ambos enumeran su fecha de separación como el 20 de febrero de 2023

Como te contamos la primera vez, a pesar de que hay un acuerdo prenupcial, Ariana todavía espera algún tipo de cheque en efectivo de Dalton, pero no será una cantidad disparatada.

Tory Lanez is settling into his new life behind bars, getting transferred to state prison and posing for a new mug shot ... one where he looks none too pleased.

We just obtained the pic, Tory's hair looks messy and he's certainly not smiling ... sporting a scowl on his face. As for where he'll be housed, Tory checked in Tuesday at North Kern State Prison in Delano, California ... about 145 miles from Los Angeles.

As we reported, Tory was sentenced to 10 years behind bars last month for negligent discharge of a firearm, assault with a semiautomatic firearm, and carrying a loaded and unregistered firearm.

Tory can find plenty to do in order to stay busy while he's locked up, we're told the prison offers a bunch of different jobs with wages ranging from $.08 an hour for unskilled labor, and up to $.30 an hour for skilled labor ... but he's gotta apply for those gigs.

Jennifer Garner moved hearts this week after trying to give a homeless man the shoes off her feet -- unquestionably a sweet move, and one we've actually seen several celebs make during L.A.'s unprecedented crisis.

Lending a hand to people in need has actually been an ongoing tradition in Hollywood for years ... as we've seen some very famous faces recently demonstrate their generosity.

Take, for example, Denzel Washington ... who, just a few years ago, went out of his way to help an unsheltered man on the streets of L.A., this at the height of the pandemic in May 2020.

This gentleman was apparently having an episode in West Hollywood, and Denzel came over to comfort him as police eventually arrived and got a handle on things. Even while officers were talking to the man, DW stuck around and provided him comfort. It was quite something.

A year prior, Lil Pump was doing his own food giveaway just in time for the holidays ... handing out tons of corndogs to folks who were on the street and hungry.

BTW ... Pump was doing this on Skid Row in DTLA -- one of the most heavily populated areas for unhoused folks in the city.

Jeremy Renner, too, has proven to have a charitable spirit ... he once took his daughter with him to hand out jackets, blankets and food to homeless people in Reno, NV.

At the time, JR did this right around Thanksgiving -- setting a good example for his kid.

Speaking of Turkey Day ... it's become a little bit of a give-back pastime over the years for celebs to team up with the L.A. Mission to dish out hot meals to the needy. There've been several stars who've partaken in this ... Danny Trejo, Emmy Rossum, Kevin Hart and Lisa Rinna, just to name a few.

There's even been some community service from controversial A-listers, like Kanye West.

Before he was persona non grata in Hollywood -- as a result of antisemitic remarks he spewed last year -- the dude was prominently kind to people less fortunate.

There's that memorable time he was handing out cash and Yeezys to one homeless man, in particular, in his own home city of Chicago -- back before he and Adidas split up -- and you could tell it meant a lot to this fella that he was gifting them for free.

The company behind Tekashi 6ix9ine's Dummy Vapes brand is none too pleased with a rival company, claiming Fume is trying to poach their rainbow-haired biz partner!

TMZ Hip Hop obtained new court docs in which Dummy Vapes calls out Fume for allegedly deploying some dirty business tactics.

Dummy Vapes says it entered into a "celebrity collaboration" with Tekashi in February 2023 for him to exclusively endorse the company's vaping products.

According to the lawsuit, everything was going well until June when Dummy Vapes says it got wind of Fume, a competitor, contacting Tekashi in hopes of meeting with him ... and dangling a $1 million offer as the bait!!!

That didn't lure Tekashi, though, and Dummy Vapes claims Fume then targeted Tekashi's girlfriend Yailin la Mas Viral with a $250,000 contract.

Lo and behold by July 2023, Tekashi entered into a merchandising venture with Fume, according to the suit ... one highlighted by his controversial "Shaka Laka" collab with Kodak Black and Yailin. Fume even released 14 different vape flavors, with some even being named "Dumy Vapes by Fume."

Dummy Vapes says 6ix9ine eventually dropped a PSA where he clarified he was indeed Team Dummy Vapes while he only did business with Fume through his girlfriend's deal.

Things came to a head when Dummy Vapes claimed it dropped $60,000 for Tekashi to hop on a private jet to promote the brand at an industry event in Las Vegas ... only to see the rapper drop out "due to directives from Fume."

Dummy Vapes is now suing Fume for trying to interfere with their relationship with Tekashi, and seeking unspecified damages.

Quavo stormed Capitol Hill Wednesday morning on behalf of his Rocket Foundation, and he arrived with the clear-cut agenda of tackling gun violence ... TMZ Hip Hop has learned.

The ex-Migos frontman was joined by his mother and his older sister, Takeoff's mother, as part of the 52nd Annual Legislative Conference.

Quavo met with House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Senator Cory Booker, Representatives Lucy McBath, Steven Horsford, Lisa Blunt Rochester, Robin Kelly, Maxwell Frost and community organizer Greg Jackson to voice his complaints.

Quavo's Rocket Foundation was established to bring awareness for gun violence prevention on both a state and federal level.

Several of the Congress members have an active "Break the Cycle of Violence Act" campaign, and we're told all parties were working Wednesday on viable solutions in a closed-door meeting.

Takeoff was shot and killed in November 2022, and Quavo hasn't stopped honoring his legacy.

Young Nudy's one of the hottest rappers in Atlanta at the moment -- something Killer Mike can attest to after having trouble tracking him down for a feature.

Mike eventually got the song done -- their "Act Up" collab anchors the new deluxe edition of the "Michael" album -- but admits during a recent interview he had to go through Nudy's mother to make it happen!!!

Nudy and Mike are 18 years apart and Mike acknowledged their schedules -- like their respective generations -- couldn't be more different.

But, after exhausting all options of reaching him, Mike says he learned he actually knew Nudy's mother from school, and after he caught up with her, she promptly instructed her son to record the track.

Added bonus ... she told Nudy not to charge Mike one red cent for the feature!!!

The song arrived last week as one of 4 new cuts from the "Michael (Deluxe)."
