The tatted up struggle rapper’s latest dilemma involves his red Bentley and surveillance cameras the authorities use in L.A. to track down traffic scofflaws. SB’s prized Bentley has been impounded. This appears to be the same 2012 Bentley GT he proudly showed off in 2011 when he claimed to be one of the first to own the exotic vehicle. Now, it seems that Soulja Boy, or someone pushing his whip, was involved in a traffic accident with a man on a motorcycle. However, the automobile fled the scene. That’s when things start to really get interesting. Read the full story over at TMZ.

Kobe Bryant’s Parents Call Him A Liar

Kobe Mom Pam Bryant

Those of us who sort of hoped that Kobe Bryant and his parents would have made up before Mother’s Day, can forget all about that pipe dream! According to TMZ, Kobe’s parents are standing together and away from Kobe! They claim Kobe was lying about  his mother allegedly stealing more than a million dollars worth of his basketball memorabilia and putting it up for auction. Pamela and Joe Bryant, both filed sworn declarations in the legal dispute between Kobe and Goldin Auctions, the auction house that has the property from Kobe’s childhood. In those declarations they swore that Kobe willingly gave his mother the memorabilia and they should be able to sell them if they see fit.  According to Kobe’s dad,

“Kobe gave his mother the memorabilia over the years, telling her, “Here mom, these are for you.”” Kobe’s mom insists she never took anything from him without permission. Kobe’s grandma even  filed a declaration in support of his mother.

However, Kobe’s sister, Sharia Washington, filed a declaration claiming their mother has been conspiring to sell Kobe’s stuff for years, and that she’s been telling her that the family could profit greatly from Kobe’s stardom. Kobe has counter sued, claiming his mother stole the memorabilia from his house. This was done in an attempt to  stop Goldin from selling the items and to have them returned to him. A judge agreed last week to halt the sale temporarily, in order to investigate the matter further.

Danity Kane Plan To Reunite Without Diddy

Former Bad Boy Records girl group Danity Kane is planning a reunion. The group was famously created by labelhead Sean “Diddy” Combs during the third season of MTV’s popular “Making the Band” reality series back in 2005. The group became an instant pop success, but disbanded in 2009, with Dawn Richard joining Diddy as a member of his Diddy-Dirty Money trio for 2010′s Last Train To Paris. The group wants to reunite, and TMZ reports that four of the founding members met with a new manager. D. Woods was not involved. And according to group members, Diddy won’t be involved, either.

Kobe Claims Mom Stole Items From His House To Sell

. . , , , , , , ,

Kobe Mom Pam Bryant

As we previously reported, Kobe Bryant and his mother Pamela Bryant have been at odds over memorabilia from Kobe’s youth and early career that Pamela has been trying to sell to an auction house. The auction house had already given her a $450,000 advance on Kobe’s box of personal treasures. The auction house decided to sue Kobe after he learned about the impending auction of his childhood items such as trophies, championship ring, high school varsity letters, etc. and became upset. Kobe subsequently asked for his items back. Why they didn’t sue his mom for the money we still don’t yet understand. This was said to be as a result of Kobe offering to buy his parents a house in Vegas that was nice but the Bryant’s allegedly felt they should get an even bigger house than the one that Kobe offered, as his pick was not as luxurious as the house they wanted. So his mom allegedly gathered up his possessions and took them to sell off in order to get the money to buy the house his parents desired.

Rumors began circulating that Kobe had spent a few million on a house for his mother in-law and that his parents were upset that he wasn’t doing the same for them. Our guess is that if this is true, he’s had quite a bit to make up to his mother in law in regards to the way he allegedly had been treating her daughter. Think about it. But we digress. And the NBA All-star player has reportedly given his parents millions of dollars and other houses and cars over the span of his career. Let us remember that the rates of professional players going broke after retirement are huge. Kobe is probably trying to plan for his future as well as his two little girls future at this point. He is not guaranteed to come back off his injury at 100% either. He could actually end up retiring earlier than expected. So knowing all of this, most people had already made up their minds as to who was right and who was wrong in this situation. But TMZ is breaking the word today, that it’s even bigger than we reported before, as Kobe is now counter suing the auction house and asking a judge to shut the entire auction down, because he says that his mother stole items from inside his home and that she has refused to give things that he still wants back!

Trick Daddy & Lil Wayne To Have A Sit Down?

. . , , , , , , ,

TMZ reports:

Trick Daddy tells TMZ he’s open to a proposed sit-down with Lil Wayne to settle their feud … but what he’s actually doing is throwing gasoline on the fire. In case you’re not up to speed … Lil Wayne went ballistic after a member of Trick’s posse allegedly flicked a cigarette in Wayne’s dreads at a Miami strip club. Mr. Daddy isn’t copping to the incendiary move. Now here’s where it gets bad. Rather than trying to make things nice, Daddy’s logic is … “If I [wanted to start s**t with Lil Wayne] he would have been in the hospital for a different reason than a seizure.” Trick is bitter … claiming Wayne’s gotten him blackballed from all the good strip clubs in Miami … and hey, now all that’s left are the butterface joints. Finally … enter Birdman … who has the good sense to try and defuse the situation between the 2 feuding rappers by scheduling a sit-down happy meal. Birdman … He’s like Dennis Rodman, without the North Koreans.

Details Emerge In Chris "Mac Daddy" Kelly's Death, Mother Releases Statement

In the last 12 hours since Kriss Kross member Chris “Mac Daddy” Kelly’s death was reported, information is building concerning the former So So Def Records‘ artist’s untimely death at the age of 34 years old. Last night, the label founded by Jermaine Dupri and Chris mother, Donna Kelly Pratte released a joint statement on Chris. It was published in the Hollywood Reporter:

“It is with deep sadness that we announce that our beloved Chris Kelly has passed away on May 1. To millions of fans worldwide, he was the trendsetting, backwards pants-wearing one-half of Kris Kross who loved making music. But to us, he was just Chris – the kind, generous and fun-loving life of the party. Though he was only with us a short time, we feel blessed to have been able to share some incredible moments with him. His legacy will live on through his music, and we will forever love him.” Additional reports by TMZ have alleged that Kelly died of a drug overdose, according to what his mother told first responders. The drugs believed to be involved are a “speed-ball,” a powerful and often lethal mixture of cocaine and heroin. A formal autopsy is scheduled for this morning.
