Afroman's half-hearted apology won't be enough to save him from a lawsuit being filed by the woman he brutally punched in the face.
As we previously reported, the rapper, real name Joseph Foreman, was performing in Biloxi, Mississippi on Tuesday, February 17, when a female fan hopped onstage and rubbed her butt against him while dancing. Afroman responded by hitting her with enough force to knock her to the ground.
The "Because I Got High" hit maker was arrested and charged with misdemeanor simple assault. He was released from jail Tuesday after posting $330 bond.
TMZ reports that the 21-year old victim, identified as Haley, has hired attorney, Tim Holleman. She suffered multiple injuries to her neck, jaw, back and a possible concussion.
Holleman doesn't believe Afroman's excuse that he mistook Haley for a male heckler. Holleman also blames the lack of venue security for the incident because Afroman has been violent with fans before.
If the lawsuit is filed Haley will be looking to be compensated for medical bills she has accumulated.
During a recent G-Unit interview with Nadeska Alexis of MTV News, 50 Cent was asked about the current beef between Birdman and Lil Wayne. His take on it was very interesting.
“I’m surprised to see Wayne going through that because of the relationship between him and Baby," 50 said. “I think it’ll work itself out. I hate when personal things become public, because everyone speculates on things that they don’t really know about. I just know that they had a father and son relationship, and that could easily be something they communicate between the two of then, and resolve instead of having everybody else involved in it.”
The music icon added that chiming in on the situation or publicly taking sides would be a bad idea.
“Be careful the things you say about the Wayne and Baby situation,” he said. “Because Baby will forgive Wayne for the things that he’s saying, and Wayne will forgive Baby for the things that’s he saying — but they may not forgive you. The relationship has so much depth to it, that you shouldn’t even speak on it.”
Kanye West made his second visit to The Breakfast Club and had quite a bit to say.
Following Amber Rose calling his wife, Kim Kardashian, a "whore" on Twitter earlier this week during an argument with Khloe Kardashian, Yeezy shot back.
"If Kim had dated me when I first wanted to be with her there wouldn't be an Amber Rose," West said. "It's very hard for a woman to wanna be with someone that's with Amber Rose. I had to take 30 showers before I got with Kim."
West also talked about the Yeezy Boost sneakers, Grammy controversy, liking Beck's album, DONDA, why he always defends Beyonce, Taylor Swift, racism, Kim posing nude, Dame Dash giving him his shot in the business, admitting he was not loyal to Dame when he went with Jay Z when Roc-A-Fella Records split up, continuing to work with up and coming artists, says Tyga was smart to hook up with Kylie Jenner, his respect for Louis Farrakhan, inspiring others, upcoming album, Kim and Beyonce not having a problem with each other, "Wolves," talked with Drake about doing a joint album.
LOS ANGELES (Associated Press) — Former rap mogul Marion "Suge" Knight was taken by ambulance Thursday from a Los Angeles courthouse for an undisclosed medical issue. (TMZreports it was for stomach pain associated with getting shot six times at 1Oak Nightclub in August).
It was the second time in recent weeks that Knight has been taken to a hospital as he faces murder and robbery charges in separate cases.
Knight had been scheduled to appear Thursday for arraignment on a criminal threats charge, but he never made it to the courtroom.
His attorney David Kenner said bailiffs and a judicial officer told him Knight had stomach issues and was taken for an evaluation before Kenner had a chance to see him.
The Sheriff's Department did not have immediate information on Knight's condition.
Earlier this month, the Death Row Records co-founder was rushed from a Compton courthouse with chest pains after he pleaded not guilty to murder, attempted murder and hit-and-run charges.
Knight, 49, spent more than a day in the hospital receiving treatment.
He is charged with killing 55-year-old Terry Carter in the parking lot of a Compton burger stand in late January, and seriously injuring another man. Knight remains jailed without bail in that case.

Knight was charged with robbery after a celebrity photographer reported that Knight and comedian Katt Williams stole her camera in September.
Knight has pleaded not guilty to robbery, and prosecutors recently added the threats charge. Williams also pleaded not guilty to robbery.
Knight was shot six times at a nightclub in September, days before he was accused of taking the camera in Beverly Hills. His attorneys have previously cited complications from the wounds as the reason for his medical issues.
A judge has refused to allow Knight's personal physician to evaluate him in jail.
NEW YORK (Associated Press) — A lingering letdown for fans after Eddie Murphy's half-hearted display on the recent "Saturday Night Live" bash has been rekindled by a report of what might have been: Murphy impersonating Bill Cosby.
In a series of tweets, former "SNL" cast member Norm Macdonald described plans for Murphy to play the embattled Cosby in the "Celebrity Jeopardy" sketch seen on Sunday's "SNL 40th Anniversary Special."
A Video Daily Double question on Favorite Cocktails would have brought up a "video clip" of Murphy mimicking Cosby behind a bar.
Will Ferrell as host Alex Trebek would then cut it off in embarrassment, explaining the "clip" was taped last June — months before the ongoing scandal exploded amid allegations that Cosby served dozens of women drugged cocktails and then sexually assaulted them.
"Eddie Murphy doing a perfect Cosby impression," tweets Macdonald outlining how the sketch would have gone. "The audience does not let him finish. The sketch ends. The show, for all intents, ends."
The challenge, according to Macdonald, was persuading Murphy to take part.
"We talk in his dressing room a good hour. When it's over, I'm convinced he'll do it."
"He doesn't."
"Eddie decides the laughs are not worth it. He will not kick a man when he is down."
At least one person was grateful for Murphy's refusal. In a statement, Cosby said, "I am very appreciative of Eddie and I applaud his actions."
As viewers know, the sketch did go on, although, rather than Murphy, the role of Cosby was played by "SNL" cast member Kenan Thompson.
The presence of Murphy on the 3 1/2-hour special was billed as a highlight among the dozens of "SNL" alums and other celebs who were involved. It was his first return since 1984 to the show where he became the breakout star.
But his participation was limited to a few awkward words of thanks for the standing ovation he received in Studio 8H after a lavish intro by former "SNL" cast member Chris Rock. Many viewers were left disappointed and perplexed.
"We have no comment," said Murphy spokesman Arnold Robinson when asked about Macdonald's account of the show preparations. "Eddie was invited to attend the show and he attended."

A 21-year old rapper from New Jersey is trying to prove that Jay Z is his dad.
Rymir Satterthwaite's Godmother, Lillie Coley, filed filed a paternity suit in a New Jersey civil court in December 2014, seeking a DNA test from Jay, real name Shawn Carter, to determine if he's Rymir's dad.
When contacted by The New York Daily News on Thursday, February 19, Coley was surprised the information had gotten out.
“Right now I can't talk to you about it,” Coley, who is Ryan's legal guardian, said Thursday. "We plan to talk to the public soon. All this attention caught us off guard, We didn't expect someone to leak it to the press. We weren't expecting this.”
Rymir Satterthwaite
This paternity battle has been raging on since 2010 when Rymir's mother, Wanda, named the 45-year old Brooklyn rapper as possibly being the young man's dad.
The two reportedly met and started dating in the early 90's. Jay is from Brooklyn, New York. Wanda graduated from high school in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1994.
A second man thought to be Rymir's father since birth was ruled out by a DNA test. If proven to be true this would be Jay's second child. He has a daughter with singerBeyoncenamedBlue Ivy.

Iggy Azalea has had enough. The Australian rapper recently vacationed with boyfriend Nick Young. A photo that was snapped of her in a red bikini drew criticism because she has some cellulite in her butt.
"Just got back from a great vacation, came online and saw apparently it's shocking and unheard of to be a woman and have cellulite. Lol," Iggy wrote on Twitter Wednesday, February, 18.
She then went on to say that she would be leaving social media.
Wiz Khalifa wants more custody of his son Sebastian and has offered up photos as proof that at the very least appear to show his estranged wife, Amber Rose, might need to hire a housekeeper.
As we previously reported, Wiz, real name Cameron Thomaz, believes Amber is an unfit mom who parties all night and leaves Sebastian in the care of her staff most of the time. He also claims that Amber's dogs eat their own waste then lick their son's face.
TMZ obtained photos of Amber's home that would seem to support some of Wiz's accusations. They show loose trash in the yard, dog crap all over the patio and a knife left on a kitchen counter top. Take a look below.
Amber has filed divorce papers asking for full custody of Sebastian. Wiz is obviously trying to prevent that from happening.

One hit wonder Afroman was jailed Tuesday night, February 17, after brutally punching a female fan in the face.
The rapper was performing in Biloxi, Mississippi when a female fan holding a drink got onstage and danced while he played guitar. She danced and purposely rubbed her butt against him when he inexplicably hauled off and punched her with a blow that would have knocked out most men.
The victim was reportedly crying and bleeding when she stood up, but Afroman kept on performing as if nothing had happened. A male fan climbed onstage to help her leave.
The show was halted and Afroman, real name Joseph Foreman was hauled off to jail. His rep told TMZ that Foreman didn't know if the fan was a male or female and just reacted. He blamed poor venue security.
He was released from jail after posting $330. Prior to Tuesday, Afroman was best known for his 2001 song "Because I Got High."
**UPDATE**
Afroman has issued an apology for hitting the female fan. He says he mistook her a male fan who had been heckling him the whole show. Watch what he has to say below.
A very well liked and respected stage hand who worked some of the biggest artists in the world has tragically died after being stabbed during a fight outside of a bar in Philadelphia early Wednesday morning, February 18.
De'Von Pickett and Eric Parker were in Philly preparing for Nicki Minaj's upcoming world tour, The Pinkprint. Around 2 AM this morning a fight broke out at Che Bar & Grill involving an ex-employee. The brawl spilled outside. Both Picket and Parker were stabbed multiple times.
They were rushed to Einstein Medical Center, where Picket died. Parker is listed in critical condition, but expected to survive.
“We believe that both of the victims, as well as the perpetrator, were all inside of this bar and that’s when an argument started,” Chief Inspector Scott Small toldNBC Philadelphia.
In addition to his work for Minaj, Picket also toured with Rihanna. On Thursday and Friday he worked with G-Unit during their Silver Springs and Philadelphia shows.
All of G-Unit's group members and staff would like to send their condolences to De'Von Pickett's family.
