GUCCI MANE ARRESTED!!!!!!!!!!

vladtv.com- Just when things looked like they were turning around for Gucci...

Law enforcement officers in Atlanta state that Gucci was making a routine visit to his probation officer when he noticed there was an active warrant out for the rapper's arrest. Gucci had allegedly pushed a woman out of a moving car back in January and had failed to mention the incident to his probation officer. He was currently on probation from an incident stemming from an aggravated assault charge, which unfortunately does not make his current case look so great. He was subsequently arrested and is being held on a $5,000 bond until he faces a judge tomorrow.

EMINEM REJECTED THE OFFER TO WORK WITH NICKI MINAJ

The track had long been in the works, she revealed. Swizz Beatz produced the number, and she held onto the track for months. The Queens femcee sent Eminemanother record first in hopes of soliciting a collaboration with the Detroit superstar. "We went out on a whim and put it in the air like, 'It'd be great if he would collaborate with us,' " Nicki Minaj said. "I remember I kept talking about it, and I thought, 'It can't hurt.' I sent him one record, and he didn't love it. He didn't say, 'I don't love it'; he just said, 'Can you send me something that's a little more me?' I sent him an e-mail and thanked him for that, just having enough respect. Sometimes people don't respond. He had the respect, at least, to treat me like a peer." Eventually, Nicki revisited the Swizz track and completed the song. She wasn't sure if she wanted a feature on the track, because she thought the song was so good as it stood. After thinking it over, however, she decided to reach out to Em. "He picked up the phone for that one," she said.

OBAMA SAYS HE LISTENS TO LIL WAYNE, NAS, & JAYZ

"Jay-Z used to be sort of what predominated, but now I've got a little Nas and a little Lil Wayne and some other stuff," he revealed. "But I would not claim to be an expert. Malia and Sasha are now getting old enough to where they start hipping me to things. Music is still a great source of joy and occasional solace in the midst of what can be some difficult days."
