The Game sued by former Lawyer

The Game is being sued by the legal team who worked on his gun charges case in 2007.

In the suit, filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Kinsella Weitzman Iser Kump & Aldisert claims they are owed $34,683.90 in unpaid fees from the rapper. The firm stated their representation resulted in "a successful outcome" for the entertainer.

The Compton artist faced five years in state prison for the February 2007 offense, but only ended up serving eight days.

He was alleged to have threatened a person with a gun during a pickup basketball game.

Soulja Boy arrested in Georgia

Police in McDonough, Ga. say rapper Soulja Boy was charged with obstruction after telling authorities a boldfaced lie about a raucous gathering at an abandoned house.

Henry County Police Capt. Jason Bolton said Friday that officers were called to the location Wednesday night (Oct. 7) after receiving noise complaints. But upon arrival, almost half of the 40 people assembled fled by foot.

"Somebody had seen a large group of juveniles hanging out at this house that they knew to be abandoned," Bolton told E! News. "[The responding officer] found about 40 people located behind this abandoned home. Half of the group ran from the officer, despite orders to stop."

Later, a man identified as DeAndre Cortez Way, Soulja Boy's real name, returned and said the group was shooting a video.

The 19-year-old was charged with obstruction and bonded out of the Henry County jail on Thursday, the AP reported.

The rapper started an Internet dance craze several years ago with the hit "Crank That (Soulja Boy)." More recent hits include "Kiss Me Thru the Phone."

MTV reponds to why Eminem was not on their Top MCs List

Since posting their ‘List’ MTV has been getting blasted for not including Eminem, even from their #1 Hottest MC, Jay-Z. “Eminem?!?! I think you do the credibility of this list a disservice if you don’t thoroughly explain his omission. As of this second he has the highest selling rap album of the year and a scene stealing verse on the best ‘posse’ cut of the year,” Jay wrote to MTV.So once again, we will use quotes from MTV to show how they not only were wrong but constantly contridict themselves. In their response, they said the list was based on…
MIC SKILLS - Did they not hear “UNDERGROUND” from ”Relapse,’ which was one of his most lyrical and hungry songs in years. Let’s not forget his diss towards Mariah Carey ‘THE WARNING’ which is arguably his hardest diss in years, even if it was to some of the softest peops in the game (Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon) BUZZ - Anytime there is a single word mentioning Eminem as a feature or a producer, people come storming in requesting and commenting. Even with false rumors like the whole ‘Eminem Gets Fat’ thing, the stories and headlines start buzzing immedietly. COMMERCIAL SUCCESS (SALES AND AIRPLAY) – Eminem had the highest selling first week this year along with going platinum in 2 weeks. Relapse was #1 in sales in over 14 countries (Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Ireland, Japan, Korea, New Zealand, Norway, Polish, Taiwan, UK, US) not to mention the first single from Relapse ‘Crack a Bottle’ was #1 on the charts in both US and Canada. BUSINESS VENTURES – Anyone ever heard of Shade 45 (highest rated hip hop channel on satelite radio) or Shady Records? (which happens to include 50 CENT, one of their hottest mcs) WEB PRESENCE – NO other Rap artist has as many fan and other sites dedicated to them. It doesn’t matter what music site you go to you will see Eminem somewhere. IMPACT – Last years hottest MC was Lil Wayne. Eminem has such impact on Lil Wayne that he numerous times throughout the year begged for a Collaboration with Slim Shady. Eventually the two got together on ‘Forever’ (featuring Drake and Kanye West as well). So from last years hottest mc, to one of the newest mc’s in the game (Asher Roth) artists have expressed HUGE thanks to Eminem for his impact and contributions to Hip Hop even giving him the hope of becoming a rapper one day.ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE MOMENT NOT AN ENTIRE CAREER - what about winning MTV’s own ‘Best Hip Hop Video’ award? The only real reason that MTV could use for not including Eminem took himself out of of the public eye after releasing his “Relapse” album. That means that appearing on BOTH MTV’s “Movie Awards” and “Video Music Awards” plus taking over Jimmy Kimmel Live, appearing on BET’s shows, multiple interviews on his Shade45 and even releasing three music videos, doesn’t factor in. MTV then says timing was an issue stating… “If the Brain Trust had compiled the Hottest list back in May, there’s no doubt Eminem would have made the Top 10,” yet they included Kanye West and Lil Wayne who both had albums come out BEFORE Eminem, not to mention including Drake, who doesn’t even have an album out yet.

Usher calls the cops on Tameka

It seems that Usher is having female problems. And that female would be his soon to be ex-wife, Tameka.

TMZ is reporting that the singer recently called the cops and accused her of sneaking onto his property and scratching up one of his cars. Hmm, maybe she was watching "Waiting to Exhale" and saw the Angela Bassett scene where she gets back at her cheating husband by keying and torching his car.

Anyway, when officers arrived at the scene, the still Mrs. Usher Raymond was nowhere to be found.

Police later interviewed both Tameka and Usher -- but determined there was no evidence or witnesses to substantiate Usher's claim.

The site says the drama didn't end there -- law enforcement sources told them that Usher called the cops on Tameka a second time several days later, complaining that she again got onto his property and wouldn't leave. But by the time cops arrived, Tameka was gone.

Hmm, we could say something like "why the hell did you marry that woman in the first place?", but we'll leave that to you the reader.
