Chief Keef is dealing with a new lawsuit. TMZ reports that the Chicago rapper was scheduled to perform at a breast cancer benefit concert in Cleveland called RapCure. His fee for the show was $25,000. He was reportedly paid $15,000 in advance. The remaining $10,000 was to be paid on the day of the June 2013 event.
Keef, real name Keith Cozart, asked for and received an additional $2500 for travel expenses the day before the show. His agent assured the company bankrolling the event that he was on the way. But he failed to appear.
Kim Productions had to cancel the show and refund fans their ticket money. KP is suing Keef for $26,000. That includes the cost of the refunded tickets, the money advanced to the rapper, advertisement, lights, equipment and the fee to rent out the theater.

STAR talks Super Bowl XLVIII high & low points, Actor Philip Seymour Hoffman's tragic death, Pam Oliver's crazy weave, George Zimmerman challenging Kanye West to a boxing match.
Radio legend Troi Torain (STAR) always delivers hard-hitting objective truth. As a culture critic he is vicious, as a businessman he is relentless, as a luminary he is un-matched.
Considered a radio pioneer by many, STAR has set precedents on the urban landscape and was recently inducted into News One's "Top 20 Black Radio Jockeys Of All Time."
STAR & BUC WILD made the national stage on MTV (1999) but it was their radio show on New York's Hot 97 and Power 105 (2000 - 2006) that secured their place in Hip-Hop history.
Torain's resume includes The Source magazine, MTV Networks, Hot 97, Power 104.1, Power 105.1, Pulse 87, Hip-Hop Weekly magazine, Vladtv, Thisis50, 100.3 The Beat, shot97.com and VH1 (The Gossip Game).

George Zimmerman killed an unarmed teen, but he has beef with Kanye West because he says the rapper beats up "defenseless people."
The former neighborhood watch patrolman, who was acquitted in the murder trial of 17-year old Trayvon Martin, wants West as his opponent in a celebrity boxing match, according to TMZ.
As we previously reported, two other rappers, DMX and The Game, have already pledged to beat the breaks off of Zimmerman if they are picked as his opponent for the match that is set to go down on March 1st.
Celebrity boxing promoter Damon Feldman is putting the event together. No opponent for Zimmerman has been named yet, but I'd pay money to watch him and West go toe to toe.
Who do you think would win?

NEW YORK (Associated Press) — The Seahawks pretty much ruined everyone's fun but their own.
Their safety 12 seconds into the game got everyone excited, but the only play that came close to matching it started off the second half — and Percy Harvin's kick return pretty much finished off the Broncos.
After that, there wasn't much left to do but hope for some good commercials, a strategy that yielded some nice moments, but nothing that you can't see on YouTube.
Here's a look back at the Super Bowl on Sunday night, from the transit gaffes to the commercials, halftime show and — oh yeah — the game itself.
RETRO BLOWOUT: It has been awhile since the NFL's championship game has been such an absurdly one-sided affair.
Football fans who remember the 1980s and 1990s recall watching teams — the Broncos often among them — get slaughtered on Super Bowl Sunday. In those days, it was pretty much a given that the big game would be over by halftime. Over the last decade, though, a series of fantastic finishes and improbable moments have gotten everyone accustomed to drama.
Not on Sunday night. The Seahawks' 43-8 win was a throwback, for sure. The only bigger losses were New England's 46-10 defeat to Chicago and Denver's 55-10 thrashing by San Francisco in 1990. The 35-point margin tied the Bills' 52-17 loss to Dallas in 1993.
MANNING AGONISTES: Peyton Manning always seems to be judged by the next game. Win one big game, and it's the next one just out of reach that really matters.
In the Super Bowl he never really had much of a chance. The game's first snap flew by his head before he could react, and the Seahawks had a safety and a 2-0 lead 12 seconds into the game.
"It's not the way you want to start a game," Manning said. "For whatever reason we couldn't get anything going after that."
Down only two scores, the Broncos could have made it a game, but Manning got hit as he threw, the ball fluttered into Malcolm Smith's grasp and the linebacker returned it for a touchdown and just like that, the Broncos were down 22-0 at halftime.
Oh, and then Manning got to watch as Harvin returned the second-half kickoff for a TD.
"To finish this way is very disappointing," Manning said. "It's a bitter pill to swallow."
