Bobby V is back in the news again for all the wrong reasons.
TMZ reports that the 38-year old singer, born Bobby Wilson, is listed as a suspect in a rape case after a woman named him in a police report filed Monday, March 19, in Cobb County, Georgia.
Details are scarce, but Bobby's rep told TMZ that there is no truth to the allegation and they plan to take legal action "against what appears to be a weak yet calculated attempt to obtain financial gain through ulterior motives in the matter. Bobby takes any allegation against women very seriously. However, false allegations damage true victims of sexual abuse."
This is the second time in less than a year that Bobby's name has been connected to a sex scandal.
Last July a video surfaced that showed him leaving the hotel room of a transgender prostitute. At the time Bobby denied knowing the woman was a hooker. He claimed she was trying to extort him after realizing who he was.

“Que pasa familia?” queries Cookin' Soul as he pulls up to Human Head Records in Bushwick for the latest episode of "La Ruleta del Ritmo." As the biggest hip hop DJ/producer in Spain, Cookin' Soul is one of a handful of European beat makers to establish a profile in the U.S. He’s done dope remix projects on artists ranging from Michael Jackson to Dilla and his original beats for Wiz Khalifa, Pusha T, Curren$y, and Nicki Minaj (to name a few) has made waves worldwide.

Check the latest episode of Rhythm Roulette to see all the beats he cooked up in the soul kitchen. DMV rapper Jayy Grams even stopped by to drop a few bars.
ROUND ROCK, Texas (AP) — The suspect in the deadly bombings that terrorized Austin blew himself up early Wednesday as authorities closed in on him, bringing a grisly end to a three-week manhunt. But police warned that more bombs could be out there.
The suspect’s motive remained a mystery, along with whether he acted alone in the five bombings in the Texas capital and suburban San Antonio that killed two people and wounded four others.
Police zeroed in on the 24-year-old man in the last 24 to 36 hours and located his vehicle at a hotel on Interstate 35 in the suburb of Round Rock. Officers were waiting for armored vehicles to arrive before moving in for an arrest when his vehicle began to drive away, Austin Police Chief Brian Manley said at a news conference.
Authorities followed the vehicle, which ran into a ditch on the side of the road, he said.
When members of the SWAT team approached, the suspect detonated an explosive device inside the vehicle, the police chief said. The blast knocked one officer back, and a second officer fired his weapon, Manley said.
A law enforcement official identified the dead man as Mark Anthony Conditt. The official, who has been briefed on the investigation, spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to discuss the case publicly.
Authorities released few details about the suspect, except his age and that he was white. But online postings indicate he was home schooled. He later attended Austin Community College from 2010 to 2012, according to a college spokeswoman, but he did not graduate.
A blogger who identified himself as Mark Conditt of Pflugerville described his interests as cycling, tennis and listening to music. In blogs dated from 2012, he wrote that gay marriage should be illegal and called for the elimination of sex offender registrations.
The mayor of Pflugerville, an Austin suburb not far from the site of the first of four bombings, said the suspect lived in his city, just two blocks from his house.
Pflugerville resident Jay Schulze said he was jogging Tuesday night when he was stopped by police and asked about the bombings. He said police flew drones over a home for about six hours between Tuesday evening and early Wednesday morning.
He described the home over which the drones were flying as “a weird house with a lot of people coming and going” and a bit rundown.
Austin was hit with four package bombings starting on March 2. A fifth parcel bomb went off early Tuesday at a FedEx distribution center near San Antonio.
Citing a high-ranking law enforcement official, the Austin American-Statesman reported that authorities had identified the suspect based largely on information, including security video, gleaned after he sent an explosive device from an Austin-area FedEx store.
Police warned Wednesday of the possibility that more bombs had yet to be found.
“We don’t know where this suspect has spent his last 24 hours, and therefore we still need to remain vigilant to ensure that no other packages or devices have been left to the community,” Manley said.
Authorities initially believed the bombings may have been hate crimes because the victims of the earliest blasts were black, but they backed off that theory after Hispanic and white victims from different parts of the city were also affected.
Fred Milanowski, an agent with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, said it was “hard to say” if the bombing suspect had acted alone.
“What we do know is we believe the same person built each one of these devices,” said Milanowski, the agent in charge of the Houston division of the ATF.
Asked if the suspect built bombs before the Austin attacks, Milanowski said: “We know when he bought some of the components. It’s hard to say whether he was building along the way.”
Austin Mayor Steve Adler thanked law enforcement for their work in bringing down the suspect and urged residents to continue to report anything that appeared suspicious or out of place.
Isaac Figueroa, 26, said he and his brother heard sirens and helicopters early Wednesday in the area and drove toward them, then cut through nearby woods on foot after they hit a police roadblock.
Figueroa said they saw a silver or gray Jeep Cherokee that was pinned between black and white vehicles and “looked like it had been rammed off the road.” He said he saw police deploy a robot to go examine the Jeep.
President Donald Trump, who had earlier said whoever was responsible for the Austin bombings was “obviously a very sick individual or individuals,” tweeted, “AUSTIN BOMBING SUSPECT IS DEAD. Great job by law enforcement and all concerned!”
The suspect’s death followed a day of rapid-fire developments in the case.
Early Tuesday, a bomb inside a package exploded as it passed along a conveyer belt at a FedEx shipping center in Schertz, northeast of San Antonio and about 60 miles (95 kilometers) southwest of Austin. One worker reported ringing in her ears and was treated at the scene.
Later in the morning, police sent a bomb squad to a FedEx facility outside the Austin airport to check on a suspicious package. Federal agencies and police later said that package had indeed contained an explosive that was successfully intercepted and that it, too, was tied to the other bombings.
The Schertz blast came two days after a bombing wounded two men Sunday night in a quiet Austin neighborhood about 3 miles (5 kilometers) from the FedEx store. It was triggered by a nearly invisible tripwire.

Over the last year Dj Iceman has been on a tear. after stepping back from djing after a 33 year run,he started making beats. since he started,he joined up with Northwest producer supergroup FFU (Filthy Fingers United) and have had song placements on 3 of their releases. he released his own beat tape and did over 70,000 on Datpiff, got signed to a small label out of Greece and released an EP,and has had over 200 up and coming rappers spit fire on one of his beats on the Rapchat app. so it looks like 2018 will hopefully be looking up for the Wu-Tang dj and Big Boss Beatz head honcho
How does it feel to have this kind of success so fast? I really didnt expect this. im humbled and thankful.
Who are you main beatmaking influences? There are so many. Premo,9th Wonder,Pete Rock,Snowgoons,Harry Fraud. just anybody who makes that good Boom-Bap.
What equipment do you use? Right now i'm just using a Maschine MK2,an Akai MPK Mini keyboard and Ozone 8 for mastering.
How do you feel about the state of the industry today,especially since Boom-Bap isn't the most marketable sound right now? Just because its not the biggest on the charts,theres still a market for it. look how many emcees are out there doing their thing. right now it's an amazing time to be a beatmaker. there are so many lanes out there, you don't have to follow any wave,you can make your own wave and be successful.
So whats next? Im hoping for a few more app placements,im thinking about releasing another beat tape,hopefully this summer. in the meantime i'm just gonna keep pumpin out good quality boom-bap
What seemed to be a never ending saga between Nas and Kelis regarding their 8-year old son, Knight, has been settled.
TMZ reports that the former couple will now share joint physical custody.
Nas took Kelis to court last year alleging she controlled when and for how long he got to see his son. He asked for specific dates of visitation to be established by a judge.
According to TMZ, Nas will now get Knight on Father's Day and Kelis gets the child on Mother's Day. They'll alternate Knight's birthdays. He gets the even years and she gets the odd years.
There's still the matter of child support the two are battling over.
Kelis has filed legal documents in February claiming the $8,000 Nas pays per month in child support isn't enough. She argues that when that amount was set the "If I Ruled the World" hit maker wasn't doing as well financially as he is now.
Kelis says additional funds are needed to pay for 50% of Knight's school-related costs, 50% of child care and 50% of unreimbursed health care.
She hasn't specified how much more she wants and a judge has yet to make a ruling.
Charlamagne awards Katy Perry Donkey Of The Day for forcing her self on a young man who was auditioning for American Idol. In the clip, the contestant says he's never been kissed before and Katy Perry demands him to kiss her cheek After refusing a few times, he gives and and when he goes in for the kiss of the cheek, Katy moves her face so he kisses her on the lips. After the episode aired, the contestant, 19-year-old Benjamin Glaze, said he felt uncomfortable and he wanted his first kiss to be special.
What we saw was a powerful person in the industry forced another person trying to make it to something that they were not comfortable with. In the era of #MeToo, why was this moment celebrated? There was no outrage and she was cheered on by her co-host. Regardless of gender, we need to keep the same energy when it comes to female stars misusing their powers to put males in uncompromising situations.
