The bitter dispute between Usher and his ex-wife Tameka Raymond has ended with a judge awarding the R&B singer primary custody of their two sons, Usher V, and Naviyd Ely.
The case was marked by mud slinging by both parties. Tameka accused the Usher of being an absentee father who was too wrapped up in his career to be a good father. She also accused him of using drugs in front of the kids.
Usher fired back by arguing that Tameka was inattentive and irresponsible according to TMZ.
In the end a judge sided with Usher. Tameka will retain some custodial rights. How much at this point is unclear.

Fred The Godson is out doing promotional work for his new mixtape Gordo Frederico. He sat down with The Source recently to talk about the creative vision of the tape, getting Lil Kim to collaborate with him on a song, and whether Stic-Man and Jay Electronica ghostwrote for Nas on his Untitled album.
"We're talking about one of the greatest rappers ever," Fred said. "I don't be believing those rumors. I can't see it. Maybe I'm wrong, who knows, but if I had to put my life and my money on the line I would say nobody wrote that but Nasir himself."
Fred added that fans can expect a new mixtape coming from him soon.

When we previously reported that LL Cool J had lumped up a would-be burglar he caught in his home yesterday morning we had no idea of the amount of damage LL inflicted on the intruder.
CNN is reporting that 56-year old Jonathan Kirby suffered a broken jaw, nose and ribs after LL beat him down before holding him until police arrived.
It gets worse worse for Kirby. He was charged by the L.A. County District Attorney's Office with first degree burglary as a "third striker." Under California law he could face 38 years to life in convicted.
Prosecutors have asked the judge to set Kirby's bail at $1.1 million.

LAS VEGAS — The UFC canceled its Sept. 1 pay-per-view show Thursday after light-heavyweight contender Dan Henderson injured his knee and champion Jon Jones, a Union-Endicott High School graduate, declined a replacement fight with Chael Sonnen.
UFC President Dana White was left furious with Jones, who lives in Ithaca, and his trainer, Greg Jackson, after the UFC was forced to scrap a major card for the first time in his 11 years in charge of mixed martial arts’ dominant promotion.
“This is probably one of my all-time lows,” White said. “The one thing that I never thought in a million years would ever happen — it happened.”
White said Jones is the first UFC champion to turn down a match even on short notice, calling the decision “selfish” and “disgusting.”
Dana White
UFC 151 was scheduled for Sept. 1 at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas.
Jones agreed to defend his title against former champion Lyoto Machida at UFC 152 in Toronto on Sept. 22 in a rematch of their bout last December in the same city.
But that did nothing to curb White’s anger at one of his promotion’s biggest stars. Last-minute matchup changes occur frequently in MMA shows due to injuries, and White seldom has a problem getting his tough-guy fighters to take risks.
Chael Sonnen
“We’ve never, ever had a fighter refuse to fight somebody, especially a fighter who is a world champion as well as one of the top pound-for-pound guys in the world,” White said. “It’s baffling to me, and I’ve never seen it before.”
Jones and Jackson did not respond to requests for comment.
Henderson, 41, was forced to drop out of his title shot against Jones after partially tearing a ligament in his knee during training, according to White.
Dan Henderson
Sonnen agreed to take the assignment on eight days’ notice, moving up from 185 pounds to 205 to do it. The trash-talking, attention-loving Sonnen was stopped by middleweight champion Anderson Silva on July 7 in their entertaining rematch at UFC 148.
“Chael Sonnen says, ‘I’ll fight him tonight,’” White said. “He’s that kind of a person. He puts his money where his mouth is. He goes out and delivers. He’s willing to step out and fight.”
But White said Jones and Jackson decided the champion could not be ready to fight the dangerous Sonnen. White was particularly enraged by Jackson, the respected Albuquerque-based trainer of several elite MMA fighters, calling him “a sport-killer” and “a weirdo” before saying: “Greg Jackson should never be interviewed by anybody ever again, except a psychiatrist.”
Jones is among the sport’s top handful of pound-for-pound fighters after his meteoric rise to the title in March 2011 in just his eighth UFC fight, yet his previously squeaky-clean image has taken enormous hits this year after his arrest on a drunken-driving charge in Binghamton in May, followed by his decision to decline this fight.
Jones, 25, a former college wrestler and the brother of two NFL players, has been open about his financial motivations for fighting in recent months, saying he hopes to retire young to pursue other interests.
“Jon Jones has been one of these guys who, as much as he’s won and all the things that he’s accomplished, he’s been a champion that hasn’t been very popular, and I don’t think this is going to do wonders for his popularity,” White said.
Jon "Bones" Jones
The UFC will give refunds on all tickets, costing the promotion an enormous amount of “money that’s already been spent,” according to White, on everything from Times Square billboards to extensive television advertising. But thousands of fans who converge on the UFC’s hometown for its big events already have booked plane tickets and hotel rooms.
White is also apoplectic about the cancellation or rescheduling of UFC 151’s 10 preliminary bouts, lamenting the wasted money and training time spent by the undercard fighters with a fraction of Jones’ wealth.
Charlie Brenneman, a journeyman welterweight scheduled to fight Australia’s Kyle Noke in a preliminary card bout to be aired on Facebook, tweeted at Jones: “U can send my check to PO box 198. EH NJ. Rent is due the first, so preferably by then. Thanks.”

Everyone seems to have an opinion regarding Lil Wayne's recent comments about his dislike for New York. Busta Rhymes is the most recent person to step up and speak about it.
Bussa Buss told Angie Martinez that Wayne has a reason to feel the way he does given how he was treated when he caught his gun charge and subsequently spent eight months at Rikers Island. Busta compared the situation to one he had in El Paso, Texas years ago where he had to shell out $56,000 between bail for everyone in his crew over misdemeanor charges. Because of that incident he doesn't like El Paso and hasn't played a show there since.
Busta also spoke about the Peter Rosenberg and Nicki Minaj beef. He said he wants Rosenberg to apologize to Nicki.
