The letter Tupac Shakur wrote to Madonna ending their relationship has been cleared for auction.
Madonna had attempted to block the sale by suing her former friend, Darlene Lutz, last July to prevent her from profiting from the letter, as well as other personal items, according to the New York Daily News.
However, a judge ruled that the singer had signed a release almost 15 years ago, forfeiting her rights to the belongings.
"(Madonna) knew that throughout her relationship with Lutz, Lutz was in possession of various pieces of (Madonna's) personal property," the judge wrote in his decision. "Yet before this action began, the plaintiff did not make any demand to return her possessions."
"It's a clear cut victory for us," Gotta Have It! auction house co-owner Ed Kosinski said. "She shouldn't have signed a settlement agreement relinquishing the right to all property in Darlene's possession."
The NYPD are looking into a possible connection between a shooting involving Tekashi69 and Casanova.
TMZ reports that Casanova, born Caswell Senior, was filming a music video on Thursday, April 19, in Bedford-Stuyvesant, New York, when someone fired ten shots, injuring two members of his entourage. Both men are expected to make a full recovery.
Police are investigating to find out if someone in 6ix9ine's crew is the culprit. This would be the second alleged shooting in three days involving the rival crews.
As we previously reported, there was a scuffle Saturday night at Barclays Center during the Adrien Broner vs. Jessie Vargas boxing match.
There was some pushing and shoving before someone from 69's crew pulled out a gun and fired a shot. Nobody was hit, but police did recover a .32 caliber shell casing at the scene.
The beef between Casanova and Tekashi, real name Daniel Hernandez, has been brewing for months. Both rappers are from Brooklyn and reported members of two separate Bloods gang sets.

According to TMZ, Casanova's team left the arena immediately afterwards... while Tekashi and his entourage decided to stay.

GILCHRIST COUNTY, Fla. (WFTV) - A vigil was held Friday night for two fallen deputies with the Gilchrist County Sheriff's Office.
"Tonight is about remembering the heroes. It's about loving the families," said Newberry Mayor Jordan Marlow. "So it is hard to fight off the rage, but tonight is about loving who's here in front of us."
A man fired through the window of a restaurant and fatally shot two Florida deputies Thursday afternoon, authorities said.
Gilchrist County Sheriff Bobby Schultz said during a news conference that Sgt. Noel Ramirez, 30, and Deputy Taylor Lindsey, 25, were killed in Trenton.
Schultz said the deputies were getting food at the Ace China restaurant when the shooter walked up to the building and fired at them through a window. Fellow deputies responding to the scene found the shooter dead outside the business.
Schultz said he had nothing to say about the "coward" gunman, who he believes acted alone. He also could not say how the gunman died.
“The world is full of cowards and the world is full of heroes. We need to highlight those heroes and what they gave,” Schultz said.
The Florida Department of Law Enforcement later identified the shooter as John Highnote, 59, of Bell.
No other details were released about the gunman and a motive remains unclear.
Schultz described the deputies as "the best of the best."
In this clip, Lord Jamar and DJ Vlad discuss wealth, the power of money, and the image of anti-opulence that many of today's visible billionaires display. Contrastingly, they pointed out how hip-hop plays up the image of wealth through spending power. For Lord Jamar, the need to shop and floss is a matter of "healing" from the lack of having.
Lil Durk spoke to VladTV about moving from Chicago to Atlanta about a year and a half ago after realizing that he needed growth. He went on to speak about the decrease in Chicago violence that was recently reported, and Durk says that he can't personally see a difference in the city so far.
During the conversation, Lil Durk spoke about starting his own real estate and trucking company.

(Fox 5) Federal documents obtained by FOX 5 News the day after a raid on an Atlanta apartment owned by Terrell Davis, also known by his rapper name Ralo, gives a better understanding for what agents agents were searching.
In an affidavit filed to the U.S. District Court allege that in addition to Davis being a hip-hop music artist, he is also the leader of a criminal street gang called "Famerica" who federal agents said is responsible for smuggling a little less than $2 million worth of marijuana from California to Georgia. The "Famgoon," as federal documents suggest the gang refers to themselves, made at least two known cross-country run using charters flights.
The first delivery returned to Fulton County Airport around 5 a.m. on December 22, according to the affidavit. A surveillance team set up by the Georgia State Patrol, ATL, and FBI spotted Davis and others transferring 37 packages wrapped in white holiday paper from the jet to a van registered to Davis, according to documents.
The van was stopped shortly after leaving the airport. Officials said they seized 520 pounds of marijuana worth about $1 million on the street, according to documents. Kevin "K" Harp and two other unnamed people were arrested, all wearing "Famerica" and "Famgoon" clothing, according to officials. Agents said they also recovered identification documents for Davis in the van.
The next day, federal agents noted Davis posted on his Instagram: "I've lost more than a man have gained in a lifetime...Have you ever lost ah million dollars at one time???" Pictures also on that same account showed Davis
This past weekend, federal agents said they were tipped off that the "Famgoon" was making another run. The flight was originally scheduled to land at Cobb County International Airport but was changed mid-flight to Peachtree-DeKalb Airport, according to federal documents. State and federal agents moved in once the plane landed around 5 a.m. Sunday. State and federal agents seized 444 pounds of marijuana worth about $840,000 on the street and arrested nine people, according to the affidavit.
Agents said they arrested Davis along with Williams "Chaos" Rhodes, Brenton "OG" Mitchell, Antoine "Shonuff" Morrison, Quintavis "Drakko" Scott, Bilal Muhummad, Michael "Cutt" Hunnicutt, Christian "K" Harp, and Shanquita Potts.
Wednesday, state and federal agents raided an apartment complex on Lucile Avenue who friends of Davis said he bought a little more than a year ago to give his friends a place to stay. Investigators have not yet released what was found inside the complex.
Davis and the other eight suspects remained in the DeKalb County Jail Thursday.
