The New York City District Attorney's drug case against Desiigner has been sealed and the charge dropped, according to TMZ.

As we previously reported, the "Timmy Turner" rapper, born Sidney Selby III was arrested in NYC on September 8, along with four friends, after another driver called police claiming Desiigner pointed a gun at him out of the window of the SUV he was in.

When police caught up with the SUV it was searched. A number of pills were found, but no gun. Cops initially thought the pills were OxyContin.

All 5 people in the vehicle were taken into custody and charged with two felonies; criminal possession of a controlled substance and criminal possession of drugs with intent to sell.

Desiigner was also charged with menacing for allegedly pointing the gun and felony criminal possession of a loaded weapon.

The gun charge was soon dropped. 

The drugs were tested and turned out to be steroids, most likely prescribed to the driver of the SUV.

On Tuesday, September 29, the D.A. decided to not to move forward with the drug case against Desiigner. His record is now cleared.

His attorneys , Ian Niles and Stacey Richman, told TMZ: "We're happy he's been exonerated and happy with the investigation from the D.A."

Floyd Mayweather Jr. and T.I.'s wife, Tameka "Tiny" Harris, might just be friends. Maybe there's a plausible explanation for why the former Xscape singer was seen dancing with Money May at a recent Mariah Carey party, three years after her husband had a physical altercation with the retired boxing legend.

However, there is definitely something amiss.

What we're not going to do is try to interject our opinion into the situation. We'll just report the facts based on Instagram posts, videos, news stories and comments from those involved.

Mayweather and Tip were friends prior to 2014.

That changed when the two famously brawled at a Fatburger joint in Las Vegas on May 24, 2014. T.I., born Clifford Harris Jr. confronted Floyd because he wasn't happy about photos that surfaced of his wife and the boxer. And another one in which Tiny referred to Money May's daughter as her "new boo."

Tiny and Tip, who have a total of seven kids ... three together and four from previous relationships, would eventually patch things up.

Fast forward to October of this year. Floyd gave an interview in which he said "all lives matter," not just black ones.

T.I. blasted him for it in an Instagram post. Saying the Mayweather Promotions CEO was "socially irresponsible,inconsiderate & insensitive." And that the interview "mirrors delusional oblivion in a way only brainwashing tactics can achieve. This completely undermines & discredits the movements that fight for the plights of our people."

On Halloween Tiny attended Mariah Carey party solo. The reality television star took a photo with the hostess, Floyd and several other guests.

The pic generated instant controversy, forcing Tiny to issue a statement, in which she claimed to have been in it because Carey requested it.

On Monday, November 28, Tip posted an IG video that showed his friend Kevin Hart and several others low-key dissing Floyd and his dad, Floyd Sr., by cracking jokes on them.

Later that day a video surfaced showing Tiny and Floyd dancing together at Mariah's party, contradicting the singer's initial statement of only having taken a photo with him at the event.

Floyd responded to the jokes by posting a photo of one of his $100 million boxing checks with a caption that read in part: "At the end of the day, it's them Benjamin Franklins that matter to me, so the jokes on you. I've made smart investments, sorry for those who thought that I couldn't read, write, or count. Y'all call them watches, I call them time pieces. Y'all call them boats, I call them yachts. Y'all call them houses, I call them mansions. Y'all charter jets and we own jets."

At this point things seem to be spiraling out of control. Tiny (Majorgirl on IG) is throwing shade at her husband by co-signing/liking posts dissing him.

T.I. fired back with his own message to the youth. The Grand Hustle Records CEO advised them to focus on their future and not past mistakes.

He ended the post with this:

"Be Strong & Stay Solid!!!! The FAIL is never as important as the FIX!!!! And Don't let none of these ratchet-ass low life,miserable morons tell you different. End of msg. #LifesTooShort #DontTripBeHappy," he wrote.

Well, cot damn!!

(Reuters) A chartered plane carrying top-tier Brazilian soccer team Chapecoense to the biggest game in its history crashed in the Colombian mountains, killing 75 people on board, authorities said on Tuesday.

Dozens of bodies were laid out and covered with sheets around the wreckage of the BAe 146 aircraft, which was lying in mud near La Union, a small town outside Medellin.

The plane went down about 10:15 p.m. on Monday night with 72 passengers and a crew of nine. It was unclear what caused the crash, although local media said the plane had reported an electrical fault shortly before it disappeared off radar screens.

A Reuters photographer said the plane split in two, destroying the tail end. Rain hampered the dozens of rescuers as they combed the muddy and forested area.

Chapecoense, from Brazil's top league, had been flying to face Atletico Nacional of Medellin on Wednesday in the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana final, South America's equivalent of the Europa League. On Tuesday, Atletico Nacional offered the championship to Chapecoense.

It was the first time the small club from the southern city of Chapeco had reached the final of a major South American club competition.

Colombia's civil aviation head, Alfredo Bocanegra, said by Tuesday morning, there were 75 confirmed fatalities, with six injured survivors. He said the death toll could rise.

Tributes poured in from the global soccer family and Brazil declared three days of mourning.

"I express my solidarity in this sad hour during which tragedy has beset dozens of Brazilian families," President Michel Temer said.

"The government will do all it can to alleviate the pain of the friends and family of sport and national journalism."

Brazilian news organizations said 21 journalists had been on board to cover the match.

Colombia's disaster management agency listed players Alan Ruschel, Danilo Padilha and Jakson Follmann as survivors.

Flight tracking service Flightradar24 said on Twitter the last tracking signal from flight 2933 had been received when it was at 15,500 feet (4,724 m), about 30 km (18.64 miles) from its destination, which sits at an altitude of 7,000 feet (2133 m).

The BAe 146 was produced by a company that is now part of the UK's BAE Systems.

The crash evoked memories of other soccer air disasters, including the Munich crash in 1958 that killed 23 people, including eight Manchester United players, journalists and traveling officials.

World governing body FIFA said on Twitter its "thoughts were with the victims, their families, fans of Chapecoense and media organizations in Brazil on this tragic day."

Chapecoense qualified for the biggest game in its history after overcoming the Argentine club San Lorenzo in the semi-final on away goals following a 1-1 draw in Buenos Aires and 0-0 draw at home.

They were underdogs for the match against a club going for a rare double after winning the Copa Libertadores in July.

Chapecoense was the 21st biggest club in Brazil in terms of revenue, bringing in 46 million reais ($13.5 million) in 2015, according to a list by Brazilian bank Itau BBA.

The club has built its success on a frugal spending policy that eschewed big money signings and concentrated on blending young talent and experienced journeymen.

"They were the hope of our city," said Jean Panegalli, 17, a student in Chapeco. "They played for love of the shirt and not for money. They played with the commitment that only those who have lived here know.

"They were ferocious."

Chapecoense's best-known player was Cleber Santana, a midfielder whose best years were spent in Spain with Atletico Madrid and Mallorca. Coach Caio Junior also was experienced, having managed at some of Brazil's biggest clubs, Botafogo, Flamengo and Palmeiras among them.

The crash prompted an outpouring of solidarity and grief on social media from the footballing community, with Brazilian top flight teams Flamengo and Santos tweeting messages of support.

Porto goalkeeper Iker Casillas tweeted: "My condolences for the plane accident that carried @ChapecoenseReal. Tough moment for football. Good luck and stay strong!"

Abdul Razak Ali Artan (above) has been identified as the man who attacked students at Ohio Satate University

Video After The Jump

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Investigators are looking into whether a car-and-knife attack at Ohio State University that injured 11 people was an act of terror by a Somali-born student who had once criticized the media for its portrayal of Muslims.

The attacker, identified as Abdul Razak Ali Artan, plowed his car into a group of pedestrians on campus shortly before 10 a.m. Monday, and then got out and began stabbing people with a butcher knife before he was shot to death by a campus police officer, authorities said.

A motive was not immediately known, but police said they were investigating whether it was a terrorist attack.

Artan was born in Somalia and was a legal permanent U.S. resident, according to a U.S. official who was not authorized to discuss the case and spoke on the condition of anonymity. The FBI joined the investigation.

Ohio State University police Chief Craig Stone said Artan deliberately drove his small gray Honda over a curb outside an engineering classroom building and then began knifing people. Officer Alan Horujko, 28, who was nearby because of a gas leak arrived on the scene and shot the driver in less than a minute, Stone said.

Angshuman Kapil, a graduate student, was outside Watts Hall when the car barreled onto the sidewalk.

"It just hit everybody who was in front," he said. "After that everybody was shouting, 'Run! Run! Run!'"

Eleven victims were taken to three Columbus hospitals. Most had been hurt by the car, and two had been stabbed, officials said. One had a fractured skull.

Several prayer vigils were held Monday night to support the victims and the community.

Classes at OSU were canceled after the attack, but were scheduled to resume Tuesday.

Students said they were nervous about returning and planned to take precautions such as not walking alone.

"It's kind of nerve-wracking going back to class right after it," said Kaitlin Conner, 18, of Cleveland, who said she had a midterm exam to take Tuesday.

Rep. Adam Schiff, of California, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, said the act bore the hallmarks of an attack carried out by someone who may have been self-radicalized.

Ohio State's student newspaper, The Lantern, ran an interview in August with a student named Abdul Razak Artan, who identified himself as a Muslim and a third-year logistics management student who had just transferred from Columbus State in the fall.

He said he was looking for a place to pray openly and worried about how he would be received.

"I was kind of scared with everything going on in the media. I'm a Muslim, it's not what media portrays me to be," he told the newspaper. "If people look at me, a Muslim praying, I don't know what they're going to think, what's going to happen. But I don't blame them. It's the media that put that picture in their heads."

In recent months, federal law enforcement officials have raised concerns about online extremist propaganda that encourages knife and car attacks, which are easier to pull off than bombings.

The Islamic State group has urged sympathizers online to carry out lone-wolf attacks in their home countries with whatever weapons are available to them.

Artan was not known to the FBI prior to Monday's attack, according to a law enforcement official who was not authorized to discuss an ongoing investigation and spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Dozens of FBI agents began searching Artan's apartment Monday night.

Neighbors said he was always polite and attended daily prayer services at a mosque on the city's west side.

Leaders of Muslim organizations and mosques in the Columbus area condemned the attacks while cautioning people against jumping to conclusions or blaming a religion or an ethnicity.

Surveillance photos showed Artan in the car by himself just before the attack, but investigators are looking into whether anyone else was involved, the campus police chief said.

While he may be one of hip-hop's most famous DJs, DJ Whoo Kid is also one of the best storytellers in music. From being kidnapped by Big Pun to potentially being the reason for Kanye West getting into the car accident that later inspired 'Through the Wire', the G-Unit DJ should add 'the Charles Dickens of rap' to his list of aliases.

Speaking exclusively to Gigwise after coming from a dinner with Giggs in central London, one DJ Whoo Kid story in particular that caught our attention was the time he and Jackass star Steve-O went to Prince's house for a party, which could have ended with them both being arrested according to the G-Unit DJ. With Steve-O choosing to take his girlfriend, something Whoo Kid thought was a bad idea from the get go - "I don't know why he took his girl to Prince's house" - apparently things went downhill the moment Prince arrived. 

As the fable goes, any woman - or man according to Jamie Foxx - that ever made eye contact with Prince became instantly hypnotised by his aura. Steve-O's girlfriend fell under said spell the moment Prince spoke to her and she eventually was invited to a private room minus Whoo Kid and her boyfriend. Upset by this - while Whoo Kid was laughing to himself - Steve-O found one of Prince's many pianos and started beating the hell out of it out of sheer frustration and jealousy. Thinking they might get arrested, needless to say this was the last time Whoo Kid ever saw Prince before his passing.

Lil Wayne was a recent guest on The Nine Club with Chris Roberts. Near the end of the hour-long interview the Young Money Records CEO, made a surprise announcement about a new musical project.

"Make sure they know that The Funeral coming soon," Wayne said. "I don't have a release date, but I have a whole bunch of good news coming soon."

Wayne was reportedly close to settling his $51 million breach-of-contract lawsuit with Cash Money Records until he big upped Roc-A-Fella Records during a recent concert.

The shout out offended Birdman, who cut off negotiations. It's unclear if talks are moving forward again or if Wayne is working on a different avenue to get his music out.

"If you are a Wayne fan ... I know we've been going through a lot of tough times right now. But if you are a Wayne fan we're about to hold our heads high real soon," he assured.

Kanye West is now entering his second week of treatment at UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles. As of now there is no firm timetable for him to come home.

The "Good Life" hit maker was admitted Monday, November 21, following a psychiatric breakdown.

TMZ reports that the plan was for West to be released into the care of his personal physician on Monday, November 28. However, he is still battling extreme paranoia. He's expressed a fear that people are trying to ruin his marriage to Kim Kardashian.

For a period of time the G.O.O.D. Music CEO would not allow doctors at the treatment facility to touch him.

According to Us Weekly, things began to seriously spiral out of control for West following his wife's gunpoint robbery on October 3, inside her private residence at Hôtel de Pourtalès in Paris, France.

"He's been shaken up ever since the robbery in Paris. It did a number on him as much as Kim," an insider told Us Weekly. "The mere thought that anything could happen to her sent him in a tailspin. He wasn't sleeping and he was having nightmares about it."

Kim has been by her husband's side throughout his hospital stay.

"She has been an unbelievably devoted spouse. He's a lucky man," a source told TMZ.

The couple have been married since May 24, 2014. They have two children, 3-year old daughter North West and 11-month old son Saint West.

SODMG boss Soulja Boy and Chicago artist Rico Recklezz have been beefing for several weeks due to a conflict that originated from the "Crank That" rapper's conflict with Lil Yachty.

At one point Soulja tweeted that he had put a $100,000 bounty on Rico's head, but later said he was joking and the beef was dead.

"I'm having $100,000 cash on me right now. This man ain't ever seen a million dollars in his life. I made a million dollars when i was 17. Rico what? Y'all is tweaking right now. The beef over with," Soulja told Vlad TV.

Despite that, Rico says in a new interview with Say Cheese TV that he doesn't want to seriously injure Soulja, but he plans to put hands on him.

Say Cheese TV: So it's no more beef with y'all?

Rico Recklezz: He a bitch, I'm still gon' smack him. Oh, I'm smacking your face. I'm beating yo ass ... I'm smacking you. I ain't gon' kill you or nothing, but I'm gon' beat the fuck out you, then we can be cool. We can box for $10K.

Say Cheese: When he tweeted about the $100K, he said he was just playing on Vlad. The minute you saw that what was your reaction?

Rico: He's such a bitch ass nigga that wasn't even respected. If that was a real nigga, I woulda been dead that night. Let a real nigga say he got $100K on some shit. A nigga gonna die by that hour.

Say Cheese: So, after that you got to L.A. Was that strictly for that Soulja Boy situation?

Rico: Hell yeah. I went to L.A. 'cause he made (a diss song). You wanna mention my name? I'm a bitch ass nigga? I went to his house. Ask him was I at his house. Bring yo bitch ass down, Soulja. He in the window. Y'all niggas ain't do shit but sit in the house with some Dracos. Yall didn't even blow the motherfuckers.
