Cipha Sounds has been a mainstay at Hot 97 for the past 17 years. Today it was announced that he was no longer with the team.

“Effective immediately,” Cipha Sounds is “no longer with WQHT Hot 97 FM,” the station said in a statement to BET.com. “We wish him well on his future endeavors.”

While Hot 97 didn't elaborate, the New York Daily News wrote that Cipha was fired, suggesting it may have had something to do with him voicing his displeasure with the direction the station was headed in.

Last week Hot 97 hired popular Bay Area radio personality Nessa Nitty to permanently take over the afternoon slot.

During Monday's "Juan Epstein" podcast with Peter Rosenberg, Cipha expressed disappointment that he wasn't chosen for the permanent spot.

“I never knew if it was mine. If I could make it mine, I would’ve loved it," Cipha said. "One boss told me one thing, another boss told me another thing, they then fired one of those bosses, another boss came in an told me one things, and then a boss of another station came in and became our boss and told me another thing. All nice people, all different opinions on what the show should be and how it should run.”

Cipha's departure is the major one for Hot 97 in less than a year, following the exits of Angie Martinez and DJ Mister Cee.

Cipha released a statement via his Instagram page, promising he already has something nw lined up.

"After 17 years, I'm leaving Hot 97. I¹m changing my relationship status from "it¹s complicated" to "single". It¹s been an amazing ride - from intern to weekends to morning show host to fill Angie¹s seat in afternoons," he wrote. "Many years of incredible, life-changing experiences and enough amazing memories to last five lifetimes. The next move is already underway and I promise it's going to be huge."

Video After The Jump

CCTV footage captured the moment a girl, believed to be 12-years old, calmly walked out of a mall with a $4.6 million diamond necklace she had just stolen in her pocket. Now the hunt is on for the pre-teen and three adults believed to be her accomplices.

The theft took place on Friday, January 23, at an Emperor Watch and Jewelry store in Hong Kong. Three adults distracted the store's staff by asking to look at expensive items. 

Meanwhile the young girl, described as being between 12 and 14 years old and about 4 ½ feet tall, took a key from a drawer, unlocked the cabinet holding the 117-carat diamond necklace, slipped it into her pocket and walked out of the store unnoticed.

The three adults spent 30 minutes in the store before leaving without making a purchase.

"Initial investigations suggest the girl stole a key from a drawer and then opened a display cabinet to steal the necklace when the three adults - one man and two women - kept staff busy," a police source told the South China Morning Post. "The necklace was embedded with more than 30 diamonds totalling about 100 carats. We were told it was worth about $4.6 million. The three adults posed as big spenders and demanded employees show them jewelry in an apparent move to divert staff attention."

The police source added that it was the first time a child had been used in such a heist.

Workers at the store didn't notice the necklace was missing until two hours later. Police were called and EWJ has since hired extra security guards.

"Our first and foremost priority is to comply with the police investigation, but we still have to wait for the results to see what measures can be taken to strengthen the security level," a store spokesperson told CNN.

Lil Wayne is not playing games as his legal fight with Birdman begins.

In addition to suing Cash Money Records to collect an $8 million advance owed to him and have his contract voided, TMZ reports that Weezy is demanding that all artists signed to his Young Money imprint come with him.

12351348487?profile=original

The list of artists includes Christina Milian, Mack Maine, Nicki Minaj, Drake and Lil Twist. Tyga's name was conspicuously missing from the article.

12351349655?profile=original

It's a legal mess that the courts will have to sort out because even though the above mentioned entertainers signed deals with Wayne, their distribution deals go through Cash Money/Universal. Birdman has also shelled out cash and helped to guide their careers.

In other words, this is getting ugly...

Mya had everything jumping and dollar bills flying during her performance at the G5ive Gentleman's club in Miami on Friday, January 23.

It was a paid singing gig and no, the 35-year old "Movin On" hit maker was not stripping, but she did showcase her fit body when she got on all fours and twerked during part of the show.

Peep it below.

We're not at all Mya.

In Kid Cudi's latest film entitled James White he plays a gay character. He embraced the opportunity as an artist to do something challenging.

"My thing is what story are we trying to tell here," Cudi told Billboard. "I didn't flinch. I'm secure with mine. I'm an artist -- it's all about playing characters that are intriguing and stimulating."

16186976020_c4b1d680d2_b.jpg

While he was happy with the role, Cudi didn't find out until the film's premiere at the Sundance film festival on Friday, January 23, that his intimate scenes with actor David Call had been cut from the film by director Josh Mond.

"I'm mad [Mond] cut out my kissing scenes with David," Cudi said during an audience Q&A session after the film. "We made out so many times -- and it was so good! That's my only gripe."

Cudi also got the chance to score the film. Listen to him talk about the experience and upcoming album, Man on the Moon 3, above.

Charlamagne Tha God has handed out his "Donkey of the Day" award to a 40-year old Houston woman named Yasmine Eleby.

Eleby reportedly made a promise to herself that if a man hadn't walked her down the aisle by her 40th birthday, she would marry herself.

According to Forward Times, the beautiful candlelight ceremony at the Houston Museum of African American Culture (HMAAC) on Saturday, January 3, 2014.

You can't legally marry yourself in America or anywhere else in the word, but Yasmine's sister, who is a minister helped her with her vows, her three sisters were bridesmaids and her mom gave her away... to herself.

I guess the moral of the story is if nobody else will love you, love yourself.
