50 Cent is shedding light on the making of his upcoming Netflix documentary of the accusations against Sean “Diddy” Combs and his alleged history of sexual assault and abuse. 

The G-Unit founder discussed the project during a recent appearance on GMA3: What You Need to Know Friday (December 13). 

According to 50 Cent, the documentary has become a challenge due to the constant emergence of new accusations, comparing it to an octopus with many moving parts. 

“It’s a difficult project,” 50 Cent explained. “Because every day there’s new accusations coming out, it’s new things that happened. It’s become an octopus, with so many powers and so many things going on there.” 

50 Cent first teased the Diddy documentary in November last year. At the time, Diddy and Cassie Ventura had just settled the first bombshell lawsuit. Within days, two more women had accused Diddy of sexual abuse in lawsuits.

Dozens of civil lawsuits swiftly followed, with three new complaints filed this week alone. 

In September Diddy was indicted on racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and transportation to engage in prostitution. Feds accuse him of using his business empire “to sexually abuse and exploit women, as well as to commit other acts of violence and obstruction of justice.”  

When asked if he predicted the slew of accusations, given his history with Diddy, 50 Cent replied, “No, not this bad. Not this much stuff. I don’t think anyone could have anticipated this many accusations and things that have taken place.”

Jamie Foxx was reportedly involved in an altercation at Mr. Chow’s in Los Angeles on Friday night (December 13) that resulted in stitches for the Hollywood star.

TMZ reports law enforcement was called to the highly frequented Beverly Hills restaurant around 10 p.m. local time. A witness told police Foxx was possibly injured in the fight, but the Ray actor was gone by the time they arrived on the scene.

Foxx was photographed earlier that evening heading into the establishment with his daughters Corinne and Anelise Foxx and his ex Kristin Grannis, so he could at least be placed at the scene. His name was also included in the police report.

A spokesperson later explained, “Jamie Foxx was at his birthday dinner when someone from another table threw a glass that hit him in the mouth. He had to get stitches and is recovering. The police were called and the matter is now in law enforcement’s hands.”

Foxx faced a significant health scare in April 2023. While working on a Netflix film titled Back in Action, he was hospitalized for a “medical complication.” His family was initially extremely private about the details, but it was later revealed that the issue required an extended recovery period. Speculation circulated about the nature of the complication, but Foxx and his family chose not to divulge the details

Foxx spent weeks in the hospital and later moved to a rehabilitation center. He gradually recovered as concern for Foxx’s well-being flooded social media. Many celebrities, including LeBron James and Kerry Washington, expressed their support and well wishes.

In July 2023, he posted an Instagram video addressing fans for the first time since his hospitalization. He thanked everyone for their prayers, debunked rumors that he had been “paralyzed or blind” and assured fans he was on the mend. Foxx has resumed some professional activities. In August 2023, he was spotted filming a commercial and later announced new projects, including upcoming music and movie roles.

His new comedy special, What Had Happened Was, is currently streaming on Netflix.

Hans Dobson, known professionally as “Prime,” was an early host of BET’s “Rap City,” serving from 1989 to 1993. Sadly, the beloved host passed away recently due to an unknown health ailment.

A relative explained on Facebook, “He was 55 years old and suffered from liver issues that had him waiting on the transplant list.”

During his tenure at BET, Prime conducted notable interviews, including Big Daddy Kane and a young JAY-Z. At the time, he was BET’s youngest employee, chosen for his deep understanding of Hip-Hop culture. Prime played a pivotal role in shaping the show’s direction during its formative years. 

After leaving “Rap City,” Dobson maintained a low profile but continued to work in media and radio. He has participated in numerous interviews and “Rap City” reunions over the years. In 2023, he appeared in the documentary series “Welcome to Rap City,” which explores the show’s history and cultural impact.

Sam Walker II, former BET VP of music productions, said he was a fan and a colleague of Prime. He also served as the executive producer of the “Welcome To Rap City” documentary.

“I had the opportunity to be a fan of Prime’s as a teenager watching ‘Rap City’ and its many hosts, to later working with him in my role as a producer on the documentary, ‘Welcome To Rap City,’” he tells AllHipHop. “He was a true fan of Hip-Hop music who, unbeknownst to most, was the driving force that led to the creation of a vehicle that launched so many careers, ‘Rap City.’

“As a person, he was filled with life and energy, and his passion for urban culture was second to none. So, I am happy we were able to give him his flowers while he was still with us. He truly personifies how one individual, with the right idea, at the right time, can help spark an entire movement.”

Prime’s contributions to “Rap City” and the broader hHip-Hop community are remembered and appreciated.

JAY-Z is NOT Having It! The Mogul Goes HAM on Lies!

Listen, JAY-Z is out here torching the nonsense and taking names! The man is not playing around when it comes to folks dragging his name through the mud. I’m over here trying to figure out how this even became a “thing,” but y’all know how social media works—everything becomes new drama in the blink of an eye.

Here’s the rundown: NBC just dropped a new report, and guess what? The person accusing Hov of some wild, illicit behavior with a minor has been caught up in serious inconsistencies. Hold up—when did we start calling lies “inconsistencies”? Nah, let’s call a s#### a s####: LIES.

Benji Madden got dragged into the accusations, and they came out saying, “Yo, we weren’t even in the REGION!” She said she TALKED to him at the party. On top of that, receipts are floating around showing JAY-Z was at official MTV VMA parties while the accuser and Diddy were somewhere else entirely – supposedly. The math is not mathing.

And don’t even get me started on this new NBC interview. Let’s just say sis is giving… “special energy.” Folks online are even saying she might be getting played by her lawyer, Attorney Buzbee, who’s looking real shady right now. When billionaires are in the mix, an accusation can cost someone their reputation. A fat payout can make it go away.

Hov is not built like that. He’s definitely a fighter. Unlike his boy Diddy, who cut the check to Cassie faster than DoorDash, JAY-Z is pushing back on everything. And honestly? It’s looking like these accusations are crumbling quicker than a Kardashian marriage.

The wild part is, if this was a Black man making accusations this messy, the case would’ve been laughed out of court yesterday. Let’s be real: when you’re Black, “inconsistencies” are just called what they are—lies. Maybe it’s time we apply that same energy across the board, because this whole situation is a circus, and the clowns are out.

I’m here for all of it. 

However, some people I recently talked to have accused the mogul of bullying the accuser. What do you think about that? Let it play out in court of finish her in the court of public opinion?

BossMan Dlow recently opened up about his journey to signing with Alamo Records, revealing the pivotal role Rod Wave played in influencing his decision.

During his recent interview with The Breakfast Club, the “SportsCenter” hitmaker plugged his new album, Dlow Curry, and spoke on his dream to play basketball, recent dust-up with DJ Vlad and patented flow. Among the juiciest bits of information he shared was how he nearly signed with Gucci Mane before ultimately choosing Alamo Records.

“Gucci had tried to sign me, and it was like a little misunderstanding,” Dlow explained.

He attributed the missed opportunity to communication issues, particularly involving the lawyers handling the deal. He added, “I guess I wasn’t really communicating with him.”

BossMan Dlow also revealed that he was in talks with Think It’s A Game, the label behind YFN Lucci.

“They was trying to sign me, but you know, that didn’t work out,” he said. Though the details of why the deal didn’t materialize remain unclear, it was soon after these failed negotiations that Dlow found himself inking a deal with Alamo Records. When asked why he chose Alamo, Dlow pointed to Rod Wave’s success as a significant factor.

“At the time, I was looking up to Rod Wave because he over there,” Dlow said. “I’m saying, ‘OK, he’s doing good, he ain’t complaining.’”

BossMan Dlow’s move to Alamo comes at a particularly exciting time, as well, following Rod Wave’s latest album, Last Lap, debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart after selling roughly 137,000 units in its first week. He went on to emphasize that Alamo’s approach aligned with what he was looking for in a label.

“They was coming correct too,” he added.

All things considered, Dlow may have dodged a bullet given the fact that Gucci recently gutted his 1017 Records artist roster. Nonetheless, reflecting on the missed opportunity with Gucci Mane, Dlow admitted he was at a different stage in life during those talks.

“At the time, bro, I was so deep in the streets it was like it didn’t even matter about the money,” he shared. “I know me being with Gucci gone… I know I’m gonna snap, but it just the conversation wasn’t right for it.”
