Suge Knight has filed a lawsyuit against Chris Brown for his shooting at the singer's 2014 pre-VMA party.

Knight is also suing 1OAK. the West Hollywood nightclub where the party was held and singer Pia Mia, who was co-hosting the event.

Pia Mia

According to TMZ, the former Death Row Records co-founder blames Brown and 1OAK for not having adequate security.

He accuses Brown of being a "known gang associate" with a " history of hosting events where violence has broken out."

Knight was shot a total of 7 times. He suffered wounds to the left forearm, abdomen and chest when an unknown assailant opened fire inside the club.

Knight cites health complications related to the shooting, including a blood clot.

At this time it's not known what damages he is seeking.

Knight is currently incarcerated in a Los Angeles jail awaiting trial for a January 2015 hit-and-run accident that killed Terry Carter and left Cle “Bone” Sloan with two fractured ankles, torn ligaments in both knees and a head injury that needed 17 stitches.

The incident happened at a Compton burger joint during a continuation of a fight between Knight and Sloan that originated on the set of the movie, "Straight Outta Compton," where Sloan was working security.

Knight is charged with murder, attempted murder and two counts of felony hit-and-run in the incident. He could face 25 years to life in prison under California's so-called three-strikes law if convicted.

A bouncer for Hyde nightclub in Los Angeles has filed a battery report with the LAPD, accusing Lil Wayne of punching him in the face Sunday, June 26.

Weezy and 2 Chainz were at the club hosting a BET Awards after-party. That's the only thing either party agrees on.

According to TMZ, the bouncer claims that the Young Money Records boss got heated because some of his entourage were not allowed to enter the establishment. An argument escalated to the point where Wayne allegedly threw a punch.

The bouncer went to the hospital for minor injuries and called the police.

Wayne's teams says the bouncer's story is 100% fabricated.

In their version of events the bouncer worked their VIP section the entire night. At some point there was tension caused by the employee grabbing the rapper's arm because he didn't recognize him.

Wayne's sources say he later apologized.

Authorities have opened an investigation and want to talk to the "How to Love" hit maker.

At worst he could be facing a misdemeanor battery charge.

According to the assaultandbattery.org, a conviction could cost him up to $2,000 in fines and 6 months in jail, under California Law.

At least one of those celebs isn't happy about it and his manager has sent a direct message to Yeezy.

A TMZ reporter asked Ray how he felt about his likeness being used in the video. The singer said he didn't want to "talk about that," however his manager, Wack 100, had quite a bit to say.

"Our likeness? Did they show him with his dick in his wife's mouth?" Wack told the cameraman. "Tell him Wack 100 said that. If they didn't show Ray J with his dick in Kim Kardashian's mouth, tell Kanye to go back and re-shoot that shit. Tell that nigga he a long way from Chicago. He better watch his motherfucking mouth."

Ray and Kim dated for a period of time and appeared together in the hugely popular 2007 XXX flick, "Kim Kardashian Superstar."

50 Cent was arrested in the Caribbean Saturday, June 25, for using profanity while performing his hit record "P.I.M.P."

The music icon and Effen Vodka were hosting the final night of the 19th Annual St Kitts Music Festival in front of 40,000 people at the Warner Park Stadium, Basseterre when the incident occurred.

"There are laws in St. Kitts that do not take kindly to the use of indecent language on stage," information minister Jacinth Henry Martin said when DMX was arrested in 2003 for the same minor offense.

50's rep told TMZ that the concert was a "great success" and "for future trips to St. Kitts he will leave the motherfuckers in the United States."

The "I Get Money" hit maker is already on his way back home.

Chris Martin, lead singer of Coldplay, has worked closely with Rihanna. His band collaborated with the singer on the song "Princess of China" off of their 2011 album titled "Mylo Xyloto."

They have since performed the song live several times, including at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards on February 12, 2012 in Los Angeles and on September 9, 2012 at the closing ceremony of the 2012 Summer Paralympics in London.

Martin believes Riri's vocal talents rank her with the all-time greats, calling her the modern day Frank Sinatra.

“She is the Frank Sinatra of our generation. She can turn anything into gold with that voice," he told The Guardian in a new interview. "Here’s the thing: if you speak to a good singing teacher about great opera singers, they will talk about consistency of tone. Or there’s a book by Alfred Tomatis about why some people like certain people’s voices and other people hate them, like Bob Dylan or me or whoever, some people say, ‘Oh, I hate that voice’, so there’s a thing about people’s frequency responses – what they are pleased by. Rihanna has this thick tone, so it’s very hard to annoy anybody. It’s like a beautifully squeezed tube of toothpaste. When you think of Rihanna’s voice you think of this whole, rich thing, solid like a tree trunk, and. Drake is pretty similar. But Rihanna’s voice is just delicious for your ear. Sinatra had the same thing; anything he sang sounded pleasing to most people.”

FULSHEAR, TX (KTRK) -- A silence continues to hang over a Fort Bend County neighborhood after a shooting rocked the usually quiet street.

Fort Bend County Sheriff's deputies say Taylor Sheats, 22, and Madison Sheats, 17, were shot and killed by their mother Christy Sheats, 42, on Friday around 5pm. A Fulshear police officer shot and killed Christy at the home on Remson Hollow Lane when she refused to drop her weapon. Only the husband and father, Jason Sheats, was not harmed.

An eyewitness saw Taylor, Madison and Jason running out of their home. According to the eyewitness, the young women were already wounded. The neighbor said Taylor collapsed on the street and he saw Christy come outside with a gun and then go back inside to reload. When she emerged again, she shot Madison in the back, according to the eyewitness.

Homicide Update: Deceased identified as Christy Sheats (42), Taylor Sheats (22), and Madison Sheats (17).

Deputies said a dispute lead up to the shooting.

"All I saw was the police officer aiming his rifle toward someone and saying 'drop your weapons,' and then afterward another gunshot," explained neighbor Sabeeh Siddiqui. "Soon after that there were a lot of police cars that came."

“The cops were behind the trees and behind the cars, and they told the mom to put the gun down and obviously she did not,” neighbor Fazz Zainuddin said.

“She walked towards the body, I think Madison, already on the ground and I guess the cop was afraid that she was going to shoot her again,” Zainuddin said.

Deputies said her husband, also the victims' father, watched the brutal killings.

“He heard the dad say, 'Don't do this. They're our kids,'” Zainuddin said.

Another neighbor, who said she was close to the family, told abc13 the couple had recently reunited after being separated. She said the shooting happened on Jason's birthday.

Friends of the two young women are struggling to come to terms with the shooting.

"She was just such a sweet girl. She had tons of friends, me and him both. I just can't believe it happened," said a visibly stunned Matthew Wiley about Taylor.

Madison was set to be a senior at Seven Lakes High School this fall.

"She seemed like a nice person. I talked to her a few times," neighbor Faaiz Siddiqui said. "Especially Taylor. She babysat us a few times and my brother got tutor lessons from her. All I can say is they are nice people. There's nothing wrong with them."

Madison's close friend, who wanted to stay anonymous, told Eyewitness News that Madison was nice to everyone.

"Madison brought nothing but happiness to everyone she ever met. She was nice to everyone and she wouldn't have harmed a fly," the friend said.

Alick Arnold grew up not far from the Sheats home and said he was a family friend.

"He (Jason) loved his daughters. They were like best friends for sure," he added. "It crushed him. I know it's hard for the family."

Christy, a vocal gun rights advocate, posted on Facebook about her paranoia that Democrats would take away her weapons.

Rapper Big L, real name Lamont Coleman, was on his way to making it big when he was shot to death on February 19, 1999.

The 24-year old was a part of the Diggin' in the Crates crew that included Lord Finesse, Diamond D, O.C., Fat Joe, Buckwild, Showbiz and A.G., as well as one of the members of Children of the Corn with Cam'Ron and Mase.

In addition. he was a well respected solo artist, having released his debut album titled "Lifestylez ov da Poor & Dangerous" in 1995. "M.V.P." and "Put It On" are two classic songs off of that project.

17 years after Big L's untimely passing the man suspected of taking his life has been murdered.

DNAInfo New York  reports that 46-year old Gerard Woodley was fatally shot in the head in Harlem Thursday, June 23.

According to the report, Woodley and Big L were childhood friends. The two fell out because of a beef that had something to do with L being part of a crew that robbed drug dealers.

Woodley allegedly killed the rapper by shooting him 9 times in the face and chest.

Police arrested Woodley for the crime, but the case fell apart due to lack of evidence.

Woodley had a long rap sheet. He was released from prison in 2015 after serving four years on weapons charges. He was also a suspect in four additional homicides.

"He did a lot of bad things and someone decided it was time to go," a source said.
