Young Buck is in a bit of trouble with the United States Bankruptcy Court — and it’s all thanks to some ill-advised social media posts. According to Complex, the rapper born David Darnell Brown has made some Instagram posts that have raised the collective eye of the federal courts. Apparently, he’d been posting about some of his things — such as a motorcycle, a set of gold grills, and even CashApp donations — which he’d previously not disclosed to the courts in his initial bankruptcy filing. Young Buck filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in January of 2020 — shortly before the pandemic — to avoid paying a litany of creditors, including the mother of his children, the IRS, and even Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson himself. The Cashville rapper claimed that he initially filed for bankruptcy to get out of his G-Unit obligations. In addition to not honoring his contractual commitment to the label, Young Buck also claimed that he owed 50 Cent more than $250,000 in a personal loan — and he was unable...

Drake apparently does it all, as he’s now played a part in providing better Internet to his fellow Canadians. According to HipHopDx, in July 2019, Drake requested for the mayor of Pickering — a city in Ontario, Canada — to create “stronger wifi towers” for award-winning producer Boi-1da, who appeared to be having trouble sending over beats. “Can the mayor of Pickering set up some stronger wifi towers so @boi1da can be able to send me all his newest beats?? Trying to cook up. Thanks,” Drake asked via Instagram. And to no surprise, they delivered. Pickering previously issued a response to the rapper sharing plans to expand and strengthen the broadband network in the city. Now, it appears the city has kept its promise to fix internet connectivity issues for its hamlets and rural areas. “Drake’s call for better Internet in Pickering is answered! Remember when Drake called on the “Mayor of Pickering” to fix Internet connectivity issues where his regular producer, Boi1da, lives and...
Trick Daddy has something cooking! The Miami, FL rapper has launched a new series titled “B!tch, I Got My Pots,” Global Grind reports. The weekly cooking show launched its pilot on Feb. 12, 2022, and has since featured notable guests such as American singer CeeLo Green, former NFL wide receiver Brandon Tyrone Marshall, rapper Kent Jones, Rick Ross, and more. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Trick Daddy Dollars (@trickdaddydollars) Not only does the Facebook Live show give insight into Trick Daddy’s southern culinary journey but it also touches on topics including music, entertainment, pop culture, and more. In an intimate conversation between Trick Daddy and Marshall, he was reminded of his long-lasting impact on street rap in the south. “When I think about Trick Daddy, I think about Jay-Z, I think about Tupac, I think about Biggie, what you did for the south, and also what you did for the culture,” Marshall said.
In January 2022, AfroTech reported on the curious bankruptcy case of one Trick Daddy. At the time, we reported that the “Nann” rapper — who hit a world of a mess when he got stung by the BeyHive after snarking that its Queen, Beyoncé, couldn’t sing — was in default on his Chapter 13 filing. Court documents obtained by Radar Online reveal that Trick Daddy owes nearly $23,000 to bring his Chapter 13 filing current. He has 45 days to cure the debt, or he will be deemed in default. If he fails to come up with the nearly $23,000 owed to the courts, his bankruptcy will be discharged, and collection efforts can begin anew on his assets. What’s more, the radio host also revealed to the courts that he has more than $800,000 in debts, but less than $400,000 in assets. Because of his precarious financial position, Trick Daddy filed what’s called Chapter 13 bankruptcy, which is when your debits and credits are given to a trustee, who then “balances your budget” in a manner of speaking. Once...
A recent report from The Mirror claims to know who the “world’s youngest billionaire” is. According to the outlet, the title belongs to a “baby influencer” by the name of Mompha Jr. The adorable 9-year-old is seen on his Instagram flying around in private jets, posing in front of luxury cars, and living in lavish houses — in other words, living life like your average Instagram influencer, and looking adorable as he does so. What’s more, the outlet reveals that the credit for this “world’s youngest billionaire” goes to the influencer’s father, Mompha Sr. (whose real name is Ismailia Mustapha). The outlet claims that the elder Mustapha bought the boy his first mansion for his sixth birthday back in 2019. And on the “baby influencer’s” posts, his father is often shouted out in thanks for his extravagant lifestyle. “My first ride BBB…thanks Daddy,” he wrote on one photo, which featured the “world’s youngest billionaire” in front of a luxury car. Mompha Jr. also wears luxurious clothes...
Trick Daddy is in a world of hot water — and this time, it’s with the courts. The rapper and former radio show host — who hit a world of a mess when he got stung by the BeyHive after snarking that its Queen, Beyoncé, couldn’t sing — is in default on his Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing. Court documents obtained by Radar Online reveal that Trick Daddy owes nearly $23,000 to bring his Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing current. He has 45 days to cure the debt, or he will be deemed in default. If he fails to come up with the nearly $23,000 owed to the courts, his bankruptcy will be discharged, and collection efforts can begin anew on his assets. And that’s not all he owes. According to the outlet, he’s delinquent by $300,000 to the IRS. He also owes $60,000 in back child support. What’s more, the “Naan” rapper revealed to the courts that he has more than $800,000 in debts, but less than $400,000 in assets.
