An argument between Sean Kingston and the three members of Migos turned violent on Tuesday, February 21.
TMZ reports that the incident went down at the Sands Expo and Convention Center in Las Vegas. According to the website, things went left during a heated discussion regarding Soulja Boy, who publicly dissed Migos member Quavo recently.
A fight ensued and Kingston was allegedly beaten, kicked and had his head stomped on. The "Beautiful Girls" hit maker was reportedly badly injured.
The brawl ended when a member of Kingston's camped pulled out a gun and fired a shot. Nobody was hit, but the shooter was apprehended by security and later turned over to the Las Vegas Police Department.
Neither Migos or Kingston were on the scene by the time police arrived. However, cops did speak with Kingston a short time later. He didn't point the finger at anyone, but was said to be "semi-cooperative."
Authorities now want to speak with Takeoff, Offset and Quavo. No arrest warrant has been issued for the "Bad and Boujee" rappers and they are not "wanted" by police.

Dale is making a comeback with his brand new video for “Buss’n Moves”. The self explanatory title gives insight on what the artist is doing with his career: Don Dalé is on the move! The young artist discusses his love for making money, the love for luxurious things, love from the ladies, and the many maneuvers he’s been making silently, to get everything he’s been grinding for! This upbeat track is motivation music for the go getter in you! The visual production compliments every lyric as Dale shows off luxurious purchases, money, arm candy and a pretty lady at his side. Scene to scene, city days to city nights, we know this rap star in the making is never lacking.
Rapper Ike Sav makes a statement in his new single “Chargin’ Me”. In the brand new release, the rapper dishes about the dozens of times life has counted him out. Being taunted by judgement, attacking his character, and being accused of a bunch of things, Ike’s lyrics reflect his personal feelings on all the people that keep trying to bring him down. “What I bring to the table, you wish you could. Say it to my face, I wish you would” Ike challenges any opposition and affirms his position as a rising force in music and entertainment.

If you haven't heard of the hip hop duo Insane Clown Posse or the movement of "Juggalos" behind them by now, you have to have been living in a cave. ICP was founded in Detroit in 1989. At one point major focus was on them after being involved in a musical and personal dispute with Shady/Aftermath recording artist, Eminem. But their legacy begins and was built long before this.
They came out independently with a mix of horrorcore and hiphop sound. And the gimmick added,...faces painted like clowns. This strange look and original sound built a humongous cult like following long before their names were known through out mainstream music. And the fans were loyal. Always supporting by purchasing everything from the albums and show tickets, to clothing merchandise and even car decals. In the beginning them being independent was almost, frowned upon...I mean who does music with no wants of major backing, right? WRONG. Shaggy 2 Dope and Violent J were geniuses light years ahead of their time. And today, they are the 2 of the main faces on the frontline of hip hop independence. And the following of support they have gathered has them and their artists eating better then most of these "mainstream rappers."
The following created by the Insane Clown Posse (and several others of this genre who were all close associates of ICP) developed a name, "Juggalos", with the female counter-parts known as "Juggalettes." You could usually see them a mile away. All draped in clothing that represented ICP and other artists of those circles. Jewelry and tattoos as well. Becoming the most famous mark of this crowd and circle of artists signed to ICP's label "Pyschopathic Records", is the Hatchet man. Sure you seen it, the character in mid-run with a huge hatchet in hand.
The love for the music, recognizable symbols,deep loyalty, a strong sense of family for one another and not standing for any bullshit...has some how labeled this music groups fanbase as a gang according to papers released by the FBI. The fans and musicians as well did not take kindly to this. A march has been organized and they will be marching into Washington DC to demand that their music loving asses are respectably removed from such a disrespectful listing.
But the lash back doesn't stop there. J and 2 Dope brought their Coalition of Clowns together to deliver a sick Psycopathic Psypher song and video "If We Were A Gang." And everybody took the time to speak their mind and address all issues while explaining if they weren't about love..it would be a real problem...so let them make music and money in peace.
I have to say everyone brought their A-Game. ABK, Lyte, Shaggy 2 Dope, Big HooDoo, Blahzay Roze and even DJ Clay brought some dope content to this track. I have to give it up to Blahzay Roze, I was curious if she would be able to hold her own with such well toned veteran Emcees. She did an awesome job of keeping up and showing that she can go with the best in a male dominated industry. No matter who she is on the track with.
Ending the Pyspher, and having the most to say (but it shouldn't have been any other way) was Violent J. He had to have delivered 46 bars or better, but he said somethings that mattered. From addressing the situation the song is based on, to addressing issues with in the Juggalo family. But if you know just a quarter of what all Juggalo's are facing at this time, then you can feel the depth and reality of his verse. The psypher all the way around...was excellently formatted, filmed and presented.
So with out further ado...check out the Psycopathic Psypher- If We Were A Gang

(AP) Magic Johnson is leading the Los Angeles Lakers again after a major shake-up of the struggling franchise's front office.
Lakers owner Jeanie Buss fired general manager Mitch Kupchak on Tuesday and put Johnson in charge of basketball operations. Jeanie Buss also removed her brother, Jim, from his job as the Lakers' executive vice president of basketball operations.
Jim Buss retains his ownership stake in the team, but Jeanie Buss has final say under the structure set up by their late father, Jerry Buss. She used it to chart a new course for the Lakers, who are mired in the worst four-year stretch in the 16-time NBA champion franchise's glorious history.
Just 19 days after Johnson returned to the Lakers in an executive role, Jeanie Buss promoted the Hall of Fame point guard to have the final say on basketball decisions. Johnson is the Lakers' new president of basketball operations, reporting directly to Jeanie Buss, although the team also plans to hire a new general manager.
"I took these actions today to achieve one goal: Everyone associated with the Lakers will now be pulling in the same direction, the direction established by Earvin and myself," Jeanie Buss said in a statement. "We are determined to get back to competing to win NBA championships again."
Jeanie Buss made the extraordinary moves two days before the trade deadline. The Lakers have the NBA's third-worst record at 19-39 this season, plummeting out of contention after an encouraging 10-10 start under new coach Luke Walton, who got a strong vote of confidence.
Jeanie Buss
Jeanie Buss said she "took a series of actions I believe will return the Lakers to the heights Dr. Jerry Buss demanded and our fans rightly expect. Our search for a new general manager to work with Earvin and coach Luke Walton is well underway, and we hope to announce a new general manager in short order. Together, Earvin, Luke and our new general manager will establish the foundation for the next generation of Los Angeles Lakers greatness."
Jeanie Buss: "This isn't about going back to Showtime. We aren't trying to turn back the clock. ... This is about the future." (@SpectrumSN)

Kupchak had been the Lakers' GM since 2000, studying under Jerry West and eventually succeeding him. Kupchak had been in the Lakers' front office for 30 years, including the last 17 as general manager — the longest current stretch running a front office in the NBA.
Jim Buss had been in the Lakers' front office for 19 years, including 12 in charge of basketball operations alongside Kupchak. The former horse trainer had final say on basketball decisions in recent years.
But the Lakers have steadily declined from the heights of back-to-back championships in 2009 and 2010. They are mired in the worst four-year stretch in franchise history, missing the playoffs in three consecutive years with their three worst records ever.
After an extraordinary trade for Pau Gasol propelled the Lakers to three straight NBA Finals appearances, Kupchak and Jim Buss made a series of high-profile personnel moves that didn't pan out.
They made a pricey trade for Dwight Howard, who fled the franchise after one year, and another deal for Steve Nash, who barely played thanks to back woes. The Lakers are still feeling the effects of that deal, which will cost them their first-round pick this summer if it isn't in the top three.
The Lakers finished 17-65 last season, a franchise low in the last year of Kobe Bryant's two-decade run with the franchise.
Johnson's return made Jim Buss' departure seem quite likely, particularly given Jim Buss' vow several years ago to leave the franchise if they weren't in contention for a Western Conference title by this year or next.

But Jeanie Buss still picked a dramatic way to end this family business' years of tradition.
Johnson has never been a decision-making NBA executive, but he has been a successful businessman and investor since his playing career ended. He also briefly coached the Lakers, but dropped his ceremonial title as a team vice president last June after his frequent public criticisms of Jim Buss and former coaches. He also sold his ownership stake in 2010.
"Since 1979, I've been a part of the Laker Nation, and I'm passionate about this organization," Johnson said in a statement. "I will do everything I can to build a winning culture on and off the court. We have a great coach in Luke Walton and good young players. We will work tirelessly to return our Los Angeles Lakers to NBA champions."
Magic: "Jeanie has always dedicated her life to winning and making sure the Lakers fans are happy with the product that’s on the floor."

The departure of Kupchak is even more dramatic: The former Lakers center had worked with West and Jim Buss in relative harmony for years with the tradition-bound Lakers. Kupchak had been employed by the Lakers in some capacity since August 1981.
The Lakers' recent ineptitude didn't hurt their place as Los Angeles' most beloved sports franchise and a worldwide brand, but Jeanie Buss finally tired of the apparent lack of progress. The Lakers have a talented young core with D'Angelo Russell, Julius Randle, Brandon Ingram and Jordan Clarkson, but haven't been able to translate that potential into wins despite playing an exciting style under Walton.
The Lakers also parted ways with longtime top public relations executive John Black.
The Lakers return from the All-Star break on Friday at Oklahoma City. They face San Antonio at Staples Center on Sunday.

The beef between 21 Savage and 22 Savage continues to rage on. 22 posted an Instagram video claiming he caught 21 slipping during NBA All-Star Weekend in New Orleans several days ago, but spared his life.
"I swear to God, a nigga steady be sneak dissing, but a nigga spared your bitch ass," 22 says in the clip. "21, you a hoe boy. I was in standstill traffic coming through New Orleans. I got the .223 in the fucking car. Nigga's at my window, like 'What up 22?' Fans or whatever, you heard me? And out the corner of my fucking eye I see ... I say 'That look like 21.' Matter of fact it is 21. So I grabbed the .223. I'm in the car. I swear to God on everything I love, I opened the fucking door. These same niggas that was right here hollering 'What up 22,' they go over there, tell you I'm right here.
"What you did? You ran to your fucking Sprinter van, you ole bitch ass nigga," the Baton Rouge rapper continued. [My] boy stopped me ... I was gon' spray that bitch. You ain't have no chains on either, bitch. You walking with no chains. You a hoe. A nigga could have sprayed your shit."
It didn't take long for 21 to respond.
"So instead of killing me he got on [Instagram] and made a video about it. Nigga sound like Big SOULJA," the "No Heart" rapper wrote on IG. "If I ran my kids can die right now. I ain't even see this ugly, fake chain wearing ass nigga."
22, who is accused by police of being involved in a 2016 murder in Baker, Louisiana, says he didn't open fire because it was too risky.
"It would have been a crash mission. Ian that stupid," he replied to 21.
