Bronx, New York emcee Fred The Godson is giving fans a rare glimpse into his personal life in the four-part vlog series entitled hiSTORY.
In part one, Fred speaks on his family having to move into a shelter when he was young, how that affected him, his father being strung out on drugs, going all out to become a success and how the memory of his mom struggling to makes ends meet while raising 6 kids gives him an appreciation for every dollar he makes from rap.

Jeffery Hubbard was found guilty today on all five counts facing him over the death of Usher's stepson, Kile Glover.
Hubbard, a family friend of Usher and his ex-wife Tameka Foster, was operating a jet ski on Lake Lanier in Georgia when he hit 11-year old Kile and a 15-year old teen, as their inner tube was being towed by a pontoon boat.
The July 6, 2012 accident injured the teen and left Kile with severe head trauma. He never regained consciousness and the family made the decision to remove him from life support two weeks later.
A Hall County, Georgia jury convicted Hubbard of homicide by vessel, serious injury by vessel, reckless operation, unlawful operation of personal watercraft and boat traffic violation.
Usher helped Tameka raise the child from the age of 4. Kile's father is TV executive Ryan Glover.
Ryan Glover
Hubbard will be sentenced on March 5th.

Lyrics:
By the time you hear this, I would have probably made it
To the top, never stop pursuing greatness, that's my motto
With an Asian model, complimenting on my cadence
I'm just tryna convince her to company me to Vegas
Yeah, you work hard, live a little, be young again
Smile at them slackers, cause babe you ain't as dumb as them
They was busy doin' nothin', you was grinding on 'em
You came from nothin, now you Cinderella shining on 'em
I'ma cop you that slipper then make you dinner
And order a couple strippers, while you tuggin' on my zipper
Fuck this liquors giving me the urge to go diving
And you're like a river but your waters clearer than Hawaii
Vulgar tendencies, prude bitches ain't ment for me
Nude bitches, I love 'em, as long as we have chemistry
I respect your energy, I connect with you mentally
But most of all, in the bed you give me that remedy
Uh, mixing henny with some spicy ass chicken strips
Finger licking food and hell yeah I like my women thick
511's, I am strictly on that denim shit
By looking at me, you'd never know i spit venom bitch
They said I'd fail cause I don't look like a rapper
I don't talk like a rapper, but most of these dudes actors
Shit I ain't worried bout appealing to a bunch of civilians
Y'all don't have to like it but you'll feel it for real
Cause I kill it when I'm spilling my emotions on the track
These haters steady hoping that I crack
Man you're wack, fall back like a thousand feet
I ain't even hit my prime and you muthafuckas about to peak
Fuck talkin' 'bout all the rappers I'm 'bout to eat
I got a chip on my shoulder from those who doubted me
I love you Dad, without you this wasn't possible
I'm my Fathers prodigal son, dodging them obstacles
I'm defying science and everything that is logical
Grind is undeniable, my goal is to inspire you
What the fuck can you tell me? I'm young and healthy
On the way to being wealthy, and ain't nobody help me, Self Made

Chris Brown was just hit with his second lawsuit in less than a week. This one also stems from an alleged violent altercation.
Parker Adams is suing Brown and his bodyguard, Christopher Hollosy, for beating him up outside of the W Hotel in Washington, D.C. last October.
The incident was reportedly sparked when Adams tried to photobomb a picture Brown was taking with 2 female fans. Adams says Brown told him, “I'm not into this gay sh*t, I'm into boxing,” before attacking him. Hollosy is accused of punching Adams as well.
Brown disputes Parker's version of events. The "Deuces" hit maker claims Parker tried to board his tour bus without permission, leading to Hollosy having to take care of the problem.
Parker is suing Hollosy and Brown for $1 million dollars each for his injuries, and another $500K from each for punitive damages. Parker says he's had to see a plastic surgeon and a breathing specialist as a result of the beating that left him with a broken nose.
As we previously reported, Breezy is also being sued by a man that claims the singer and three bodyguards jumped him during a basketball game at a 24-Hour Fitness in Hollywood last July.

KIEV, Ukraine (Associated Press) — Fearing that a call for a truce was a ruse, protesters tossed firebombs and advanced upon police lines Thursday in Ukraine's embattled capital. Government snipers shot back and the almost-medieval melee that ensued left at least 70 people dead and hundreds injured.
Video footage on Ukrainian television showed shocking scenes Thursday of protesters being cut down by gunfire, lying on the pavement as comrades rushed to their aid. Trying to protect themselves with shields, teams of protesters carried bodies away on sheets of plastic or on planks of wood.
Protesters were also seen leading policemen with their hands held high around the sprawling protest camp in central Kiev. Ukraine's Interior ministry says 67 police were captured in all. It was not clear how they were taken. An opposition lawmaker said they were being held in Kiev's occupied city hall.
Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych
President Viktor Yanukovych and the opposition protesters who demand his resignation are locked in an epic battle over the identity of Ukraine, a nation of 46 million that has divided loyalties between Russia and the West. Parts of the country — mostly in its western cities — are in open revolt against Yanukovych's central government, while many in eastern Ukraine favor strong ties with Russia, their former Soviet ruler.
A group of protesters get scorched during clashes with police on Thursday, after a brief truce with the country’s embattled leader.
At least 99 people have died this week in the clashes in Kiev, a sharp reversal in three months of mostly peaceful protests. Now neither side appears willing to compromise, with the opposition insisting on Yanukovych's resignation and an early election and the president apparently prepared to fight until the end.
Thursday was the deadliest day yet. An AP cameraman saw snipers shooting at protesters in Kiev and video footage showed at least one sniper wearing a Ukraine riot police uniform.
The carnage appears to show that neither Yanukovych nor the opposition leaders appear to be in control of the chaos engulfing Ukraine.
Dr. Oleh Musiy, the top medical coordinator for the protesters told the AP that at least 70 protesters were killed Thursday and over 500 injured, and the death toll could well rise further.
There was no way to immediately verify his statement. Earlier in the day, an Associated Press reporter saw 21 bodies of protesters laid out Thursday on the edge of the capital's sprawling protest camp.
In addition, one policeman was killed and 28 suffered gunshot wounds Thursday, Interior Ministry spokesman Serhiy Burlakov told the AP.
A truce announced late Wednesday appeared to have little credibility among hardcore protesters at Kiev's Independence Square campsite. One camp commander, Oleh Mykhnyuk, told the AP even after the truce, protesters still threw firebombs at riot police on the square. As the sun rose, police pulled back, the protesters followed them and police then began shooting at them, he said.
The Interior Ministry warned Kiev residents to stay indoors Thursday because of the "armed and aggressive mood of the people."
Yanukovych claimed Thursday that police were not armed and "all measures to stop bloodshed and confrontation are being taken." But the Interior Ministry later contradicted that, saying law enforcers would get weapons as part of an "anti-terrorist" operation.
Some signs emerged that Yanukovych is losing loyalists. The chief of Kiev's city administration, Volodymyr Makeyenko, announced Thursday he was leaving Yanukovych's Party of Regions.
"We must be guided only by the interests of the people, this is our only chance to save people's lives," he said, adding he would continue to fulfill his duties as long as he had the people's trust.
Another influential member of the ruling party, Serhiy Tyhipko, said both Yanukovych and opposition leaders had "completely lost control of the situation."
"Their inaction is leading to the strengthening of opposition and human victims," the Interfax news agency reported.
The parliament building was evacuated Thursday because of fears that protesters would storm it, and the government office and the Foreign Ministry buildings in Kiev were also evacuated. But a parliament session convened in the afternoon, with some pro-government lawmakers heeding the opposition's call to work out a solution to the crisis.
As the violence exploded and heavy smoke from burning barricades at the encampment belched into the sky, the foreign ministers of three European countries — France, Germany and Poland — met with Yanukovych for five hours after speaking with the opposition leaders. The EU ministers then returned to speak again with opposition leaders.
The 28-nation European Union began an emergency meeting on Ukraine in Brussels to consider sanctions against those behind the violence.
The latest bout of street violence began Tuesday when protesters attacked police lines and set fires outside parliament, accusing Yanukovych of ignoring their demands to enact constitutional reforms that would once again limit the president's power.
Prior to the deaths Thursday, the Ukrainian Health Ministry said 28 people have died and 287 have been hospitalized this week. Protesters who have set up a medical facility in a downtown cathedral so that wounded colleagues would not be snatched away by police say the number of injured are significantly higher — possibly double or triple that.
The Caritas Ukraine aid group praised the protest medics but said many of the wounded will need long-term care, including prosthetics.
The clashes this week have been the most deadly since protests kicked off in November after Yanukovych shelved an association agreement with the European Union in favor of closer ties with Russia. Russia then announced a $15 billion bailout for Ukraine, whose economy is in tatters.
The political jockeying for influence in Ukraine has continued. In Moscow, the Kremlin said President Vladimir Putin was sending former ombudsman Vladimir Lukin to Ukraine as a mediator.
President Barack Obama stepped in to condemn the violence, warning Wednesday "there will be consequences" for Ukraine if it keeps up. The U.S. has raised the prospect of joining with the EU to impose sanctions against Ukraine.
Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev said Russia will "try to do our best" to fulfill its financial obligations to Ukraine, but indicated Moscow would hold back on further installments of its bailout money until the crisis is resolved.
"We need partners that are in good shape and a Ukrainian government that is legitimate and effective," he said.
At the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Ukrainian alpine skier Bogdana Matsotska, 24, said she will not take part in Friday's women's slalom due to the developments in Kiev.
"As a protest against lawless actions made toward protesters, the lack of responsibility from the side of the president and his lackey government, we refuse further performance at the 2014 Sochi Olympic Games," her father and coach, Oleg Matsotskyy, wrote in a Facebook post.

It's a new day and bright future for 50 Cent. The G-Unit mogul has inked a worldwide distribution deal for himself and G-Unit Records with Caroline/Capitol/UMG.
The move gives 50 more control over when his music is released and provides a rock solid foundation for his existing roster of artists, as well as the ones he will sign in the future.
Read the full press release below via PRNewsWire.
SANTA MONICA, Calif., Feb. 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- 50 Cent announced today that he has signed an exclusive worldwide distribution and services agreement with Caroline/Capitol/UMG. The superstar recording artist transitions to independent status after a successful twelve years at Shady/Aftermath/Interscope, during which time he sold more than 30 million albums. 50 Cent's highly successful catalog, including Get Rich or Die Tryin', The Massacre, Curtis and Before I Self Destruct, will continue to be marketed and released by Shady/Aftermath/Interscope.
The artist's first album under the new agreement will be Animal Ambition, scheduled for release on June 3rd. Album pre-orders will begin on March 18th and fans will immediately receive two instant gratification tracks and the corresponding videos will premiere online. An additional song and video will launch each week leading up to the album's release.
According to Caroline President Dominic Pandiscia, "We are thrilled to welcome 50 Cent and G-Unit to our family. 50 is simply one of the most accomplished and creative artists, and his plans for the future are as exciting and innovative as you can imagine. I deeply thank him for his belief in our team and what we can do to help support his creative vision in the years to come. I'd also like to thank everyone at Shady/Aftermath and Interscope, particularly Eminem and Dr. Dre, for offering their endorsement and support of our involvement with 50 Cent and G-Unit. They've done an incredible job these past 12 years, and we've got a great legacy of label partnership to build on."
50 Cent commented, "I have had great success to date with Shady/Aftermath/Interscope and I'd like to thank Eminem and Dr. Dre for giving me an incredible opportunity. I've learned so much from them through the years. I am excited to enter this new era where I can carry out my creative vision."
Eminem stated, "Both myself and Shady Records are grateful to have had the chance to play a part in 50's career. Shady simply would not be what it is without 50 Cent. I've developed a great friendship with 50 over the years, and that's not going to change. We know 50 will have success in his new situation, and we remain supporters of both him and G-Unit."
According to Steve Berman, Vice Chairman of Interscope/Geffen/A&M, "50 Cent is, and always will be, a marquee artist for us at Interscope/Geffen/A&M. We respect his decision to pursue this new venture and the next chapter in his career, and wish him nothing but the best. He will always be a part of our family."
