Rapper The Game Blames Chris Brown's Former Friend Wackstar For Vandalizing His Porsche And Stealing $50,000 From The Singer In Home Invasion Robbery

Compton, California rapper the Game has been on social networking slamming a man known as "Wackstar" who was a friend of singer Chris Brown and his ex-girlfriend, Karrueche Tran. The TMZ website reported, the Game, real name, Jayceon Taylor, is threatening to break Wackstar's jaw for damaging his Porsche and masterminding the break-in to Brown's mansion, tying up his aunt, Christine Brown, shoving her in a closet and stealing $50,000 in a safe, as well as electronics (including Brown's computer with his music work and other sensitive data on it).

The Game stated,"Tell these fans who really had Chris Brown auntie tied up and his house broke in you p***y as* f****t. When I see you I'm gone break yo f***in jaw...So have yo gun on you p***y." Wackstar responded, "I know the real you, you wouldn't hurt a f****n fly...#ChangeOfHeatAs*Ni**a."

Seriously, what does Wackstar do for a living that he can afford a large home and luxury cars. It gives a certain impression of illegal activity. Not to mention, Wackstar was the main one egging Brown on, regarding threatening male supermodel, Tyson Beckford, over an innocuous selfie with Tran. He also went ahead of Brown to Las Vegas trying to start trouble with Beckford, who hadn't done anything wrong, prompting Tran to flee the city.

Wackstar is a troublemaker and one who has gotten Brown into very negative situations in the past, not caring that the singer was on parole. After the burglary into Brown's mansion, his mother stated online that it was one of his friends. His aunt also indicated the same to police, who continue to investigate the burglary.

For well over a year the Judiciary Report has warned Brown, who reads this site, about some of the friends in his circle (Getting Negative Influences Out Of Your Life and Chris Brown Announces More Tour Dates While Paying The Way Of Destructive OHB Crew among other articles). It's sad he and his family had to find out the hard way, especially his aunt. At least she was not killed or seriously injured. However, she is traumatized and shaken from what had to have been an awful experience. As the phrase goes, "With friends like these who needs enemies."

Suge Knight Charged In Court With Murder Then Is Rushed To Hospital From The Holding Cell Complaining Of Chest Pains


Suge Knight

Former Death Row Records CEO Marion “Suge” Knight has been charged with murder in the vehicular homicide of actor Terry Carter. Knight has also been charged with attempted murder in also striking film crew member Cle “Bone” Sloan with his truck. Knight, who is on probation, faces life in prison. When the charges were announced, it had a bad effect on Knight. While in the holding cell, he began complaining of chest pains and was rushed to the hospital. A few months ago Knight was rushed to the hospital from jail, after developing a blood clot in his lung.

Knight stalked the set of the forthcoming film “Straight Outta Compton” chronicling the life of gangster rap group NWA. Fearing he would be negatively portrayed for the role he played in the life of NWA member, Dr. Dre, Knight began threatening and intimidating film crew members.

After stalking the crew to a nearby burger joint, Knight confronted them in the parking lot of Tam’s burgers. Knight has stated he was attacked as he sat in his truck, then fled the scene, fearing for his life. However, witnesses dispute his claims and with Knight’s extensive history as an aggressor, who has engaged in brutal acts of violence, including murder, it is going to be a tough sell to any jury. Knight needs to pay his debt to society and seek forgiveness.

Members of NWA and the cast and crew of forthcoming biopic "Straight Outta Compton"

A shooting broke out on the set of the forthcoming NWA biopic "Straight Outta Compton." The 1980s rap group, fronted by rappers Dr. Dre and Ice Cube, was filming outside a courthouse in Compton, California, when shots rang out. Witnesses reported seeing men holding up ganging signs (with their fingers) before doing a drive-by shooting outside the courthouse that left one person suffering from a gunshot wound.

The film is already immersed in controversy, due to an offensive casting call sent out by the film's producers and studio. The casting call portrayed black women in a very negative light. The producers of the film and Universal Pictures apologized for the extreme offense it caused.

"Christmas In Compton" is the funny, but somewhat cliché film about the holidays in the city, Compton,  made famous by the Williams sisters, among others. Derrick, a budding music industry manager with an eye for talent is defrauded by an unscrupulous record company CEO to the tune of $300,000.

In fact, the CEO repeatedly rips him off to the point he becomes so desperate that Derrick risks his father's business and real estate...

Town Of Staines Renames To Distance Itself From Sacha Baron Cohen Character

Sacha Baron Cohen as "Ali G"

The British town of Staines in Surrey, has officially changed its name to Staines-upon-Thames, to get away from Sacha Baron Cohen's character Ali G and his negative use of their city in his television show and film. I can't say I blame them. Surrey is a very nice place, but when you have someone using a town in your county as the backdrop for idiocy, it can leave a stigma. Cohen has done the same to foreign nations as well, angering their people.

In America, groups like NWA placed a stigma over the city of Compton, California, in the 1980s, leading the world to believe it is the most violent place on earth. However, tennis stars, Venus Williams and Serena Williams are from Compton and have done great things domestically and internationally in tennis, winning many prestigious awards.

In short, stereotyping people and places is not a good thing to do and entertainers need to be mindful of their deeds in trashing or mocking places.

Rick Ross Sued For Stealing Name And Image


Rick Ross

Miami rapper, Rick Ross, has been sued by notorious drug dealer, incarcerated felon, "Freeway" Ricky Ross. The Miami MC famously took the drug dealer's name, image and likeness and used it to launch a fairly successful rap career.

The only problem for the rapper is in America there is such a thing as image rights. "Freeway" Ricky Ross is entitled to what is known as the Right Of Publicity, meaning he and only he, has the right to profit from his name and image. When he has passed, that right goes to his heirs.

To use his real life image as a persona for a rap career and credibility, is a violation of his legal rights. You are an impersonator, pretending to be the real thing and in music that defeats the purpose of having credibility. As such, the cocaine trafficker has sued the Miami rapper.

"Freeway" Ricky Ross

Thus far, Judge Percy Anderson, has not granted an injunction barring the release of Ross' forthcoming album, but under the law, he owes the felon financial damages and should cease and desist exploiting his name and image for financial gain.

Under the circumstances, you cannot take someone's name and image and turn it into entertainment for profit. You are infringing on their life, which is illegal.

The damages are multiplied, as you are disseminating this work and persona not your own, all over the world, violating international image laws as well.

Side Bar: "Freeway" Ricky Ross appeared in the eye-opening documentary "American Drug War." He spoke about the CIA and Oliver North, as did numerous other individuals, from drug dealers to former DEA agents.

I still have not gotten over that documentary. It's pretty messed up when you find out the CIA flooded the streets of Compton, California with drugs they imported into America.
