Rich Homie Quan’s Entourage Involved in Altercation

A Rich Homie Quan club performance in North Carolina ended in gunfire early this morning (Sept. 11). The Atlanta MC was in N.C. performing at the Diamond Club in New Bern. According to TMZ, police got a call about a shooting in the parking lot around 3 a.m. When they arrived they found five people who had sustained injuries in the hail of bullets.

The Craven County Sheriff’s office tells the site that members of RHQ’s entourage were involved in the altercation that led up to the shooting. The “Flex” rapper was questioned by authorities, despite not personally being involved. The investigation into what exactly happened is ongoing.

This is the second time someone has been shot at a rap related club event in the last month. In late August, a party hosted by Jeezy in Virginia Beach was cut short when a man was shot and killed at the venue. Details of what happened were scarce with police stating the man died from an “apparent gunshot wound.” The victim has since been identified by the mother of his unborn child on social media as Demetrius Darnell McCloud, also known as “Yang.” A GoFundMe account has been set up in his name.

The club has seen its fair share of violence. According to the Virginia Pilot that was the fourth shooting near the club in the last two years. The venue has since given up its liquor license.

Young Thug Comes Out Of The Closet


Every since Young Thug came out on the big screen, I always wondered if he was gay! Was he doing it for a check or for respect? Having six children doesn't necessarily mean you love sex, not according to Young Thug, who at the age of 25 has made mothers of four different women.

T.I.'s Daughter Arrested

(The Wrap-Up Magazine) T.I.'s step daughter was arrested at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta on Thursday night [June 16], when she was busted trying to bring an unlicensed gun through security. 20-year-old Zonnique Pullins, who is the daughter of T.I.'s wife Tameka "Tiny" Harris, was stopped at a TSA checkpoint, where an x-ray machine picked up a .380 Ruger pistol among her possessions. She would be transported to Clayton County Jail where she was formally placed under arrest.

While Pullins was detained at around 10 p.m., the status of the gun remained pending as she told authorities that she had a permit. It was when she could not provide it on the spot that she was taken in and it later verified that she in fact did not have paperwork on the weapon. Along with the firearm police confiscated a clip with five rounds of ammunition. She would be released at 2:09 a.m. on Friday morning. She faces a charge of carrying a concealed weapon in an unauthorized area.

Pullins' arrest draws reminiscence to that of her step-father's in 2007, when T.I. was locked up for attempting to illegally purchase an assortment of machine guns hours before he was scheduled to appear at the BET awards. He would would plead guilty to federal weapons charges and serve a year of house arrest.

Family Loses Everything

A Georgia family lost nearly all of its possessions when the Craigslist movers it hired disappeared with a loaded truck. An unidentified woman victimized by the theft in Douglas County said that the belongings were worth $75,000.

“Ten years of memories, irreplaceable items, things that my husband and I worked hard for and earned. It’s just gone.” The truck, believed to be stolen, had nothing inside when it was found by police in Atlanta, though the family has mysteriously recovered some of its most important documents.

Birth certificates, death certificates and other essential papers were found when one box was discovered dumped two days later, though an iPad that had been inside was missing. A St. Louis couple across the country fell victim to a similar scheme late last year, paying $1,100 to a company they found on Craigslist and then waiting in vain for their items to show up in North Carolina.
