Less than two weeks after being arrested for allegedly trying to use counterfeit money at a Maryland casino, Maybach Music Group recording artist Fat Trel is back in police custody.
ABC7 reports that Trel, real name Martrel Reeves, was arrested by Arlington County Police on Thursday, April 7. He's been charged with DWI, narcotics distribution, speeding and driving on a revoked license.
This latest run-in with the law follows the 25-year old rapper's March 27th arrest, after he allegedly passed a pit boss at a Maryland casino nine fake $50 bills. They were easily spotted because the serial numbers on eight of the bills matched.
He reportedly said that the bills were dispensed from an ATM at a 7-11 store in his hometown of Washington, D.C.
AN ATM ? DONT EVEN OWN A BANK CARD...PICTURE BIG GLEETCHIE AT A ATM...1st & LASTER RESPONSE 2 DA BULLSHYT!!!
With so many artists crowding the R&B field it's rare you find one that instantly separates themselves from the mundane.
Remo The Hitmaker and New Wave Music have discovered that rare gem in 18-year old singer Jaz Graham, who has just released her new Remo-produced single titled "Waiting For."
"Waiting For is the truth for many women, young and old," she writes. "My goal when recording Waiting For was to send a message that tells every woman to pay attention to the signs of a bad relationship, know her self-worth and move on from a unhealthy situation. Message for the fellows, 'get it together before you lose a good woman.' For me, the release of Waiting For is perfect timing."

Kehlani's attempted suicide last month over rumors she cheated on Kyrie Irving with PartyNextDoor and Chris Brown's response continue to be a hot topic.
Kehlani
As we previously reported, Brown felt like Kehlani created the entire situation for attention and sympathy to get critics off of her back.
"There is no attempting suicide. Stop flexing for the gram. Doing shit for sympathy so them comments under your pics don't look so bad," Brown wrote on his Twitter account at the time.

Several female artists he's collaborated with, includingTinasheunfollowed the "Deuces" hit maker afterwards.
A follower suggested to Chris that he shouldn't care about them.
"I don't," Chris responded. "They called and needed my help. Not the other way around. I've been around for a bit so these 'celebrities' fade out musically if they aren't original or let's face it, actually talented. TEAM BREEZY let's focus on the music and let the bullshit fade away."
During an interview with San Francisco’s KMEL this week Tinashe was asked about the situation.
“I felt like it was just so unnecessary,” she said. “I was just like, ‘Whatever.’…That’s just so unnecessary. I just think it’s silly. It’s petty. What’s the benefit? “It’s not even worth it. It’s not a big deal to me. I don’t think that follows on Twitter are a big deal…If I see him, I would love to speak to him. I would love if he reached out. I have absolutely nothing against him. We were on good terms as far as I knew.”
Tinashe went to add that she thought Chris' comments about Kehlani created a "messy situation."
It didn't take long for Breezy to fire back via his IG account.
“I hope she talked about “HER” career for most of this interview “WHOISHAE” TINASHAE. I hope they rehearsing for those performance( power 106 charity basketball game halftime show) give her credit though, 30 16 year old hobbit face ass. WE WANT MUSIC, WE WANT MUSIC, WE WANT MUSIC!! TEACH ME HOW TO JERK FACE ASS," he wrote.
Brown continued on Twitter, saying if you call his name you should prepare yourself for a response.
"I have no filter nor will I care or tone it down when people drop my name in something. Don't wanna see it, simply exit out of your device," the singer wrote. "I won't pull the cover over your eyes and be politically correct. That's not me, HATE IT OR LOVE IT. When I turn my phone off NO ONE MATTERS. IM LIVING!!! AND TEAM BREEZY AINT A FAN CLUB OF OBSESSED INSANE PEOPLE. WE ARE AN INTERNATIONAL NATION OF INSPIRED INDIVIDUALS."

Actor and comedian Aries Spears recently sat down with Vlad TV for an interview that covered a wide variety of topics.
He addressed the notion that Hollywood feminizes black actors who play females characters in comedic roles to make them more palatable to white audiences.
"I hear that argument and I never got that. Because to me that's always just been a comedy thing. That's like, comedy 101. That's one of the oldest tricks of the comedy trade, is men in drag," Spears says. "I never got that. And I know that's what they say, but I never saw that like that. Martin [Lawrence] as Big Momma is hilarious. Eddie Murphy as Mama and Grandmama Klump is hilarious. I never looked at Eddie and went 'Oh they're trying to feminize him. Make him come off weak and not a strong black man.'"
Another topic discussed was the perception that black men should be feared by society.
"I gotta say to white America ... bravo. You guys have pulled off the world's greatest Jedi mind trick on society," Spears continued. "Because this notion that black men are to be feared. And black men and black people are scary is hilarious to me. Because historically speaking, white people you guys have been the most dangerous motherfuckers on the planet. You wiped out the Indians, you kidnapped niggas, you repressed us for 400 years, we get beat by the judicial system, we get beat and killed by the cops. Cam Newton is a thug, but yet you've seen videos of him giving shoes and things away to people in wheelchairs. And he's got a great smile. The least threatening dude ever."
Check out the full interview (https://youtu.be/mmROnN9Gj7s) below and let us know what you think of Spears' comments.
Karrine “Superhead” Steffans asked for and has been granted a restraining order against former "Scandal" star Columbus Short.
The order went into effect on Monday, April 4th.
According to TMZ, Steffans claims that Short is a violent drunk that goes into tirades at least three times a week. During one episode he allegedly kicked down their bedroom door where she was hiding.
Short also reportedly threatened Steffans' and Kool G. Rap's 18-year old son, Naim Wilson. Saying he would "whoop his ass like a man."
The couple reportedly got married last year. Steffans says doesn't want a divorce and hopes this is a wake up call for her husband so he realizes he needs professional help.
Short told TMZ that a divorce is impossible because he never married the former video vixen turned author.
Short is already on three years probation for felony assault after knocking a man out in 2014 at an L.A. restaurant.
