The records also indicate that she was booked on two counts of possession of a controlled substance without a prescription and one count of possession/use of drug paraphernalia. However, she posted bail on the same day and currently has a hearing on October 5th.

At this point, she hasn’t made any official statements regarding the incident, nor is there any other public information available. 

Since XXXTENTACION’s death, Jenesis Sanchez has often kept fans up to date on baby Gekyume’s growth. And frankly, their little one is looking more and more like his father each day. In February, new photos of Gekyume resurfaced for his birthday when he styled his hair similar to one of his dad’s iconic looks–the blue braids to the back.

XXXTENTACION’s Child’s Mother Arrest

Evidently, even at a young age, Gekyume has some understanding of his father’s legacy. Gekyume was born seven months after XXXTENTACION’s death, on January 26th, 2019. After Michael Boatwright, Dedrick Williams, and Trayvon Newsome were found guilty of first-degree murder for the killing of XXXTENTACION, Sanchez shared a rare statement expressing her gratitude for the support and reflecting on raising Gekyume without his father. 

“After 5 long years you may finally rest in peace,” Sanchez shared. “Gekyume will never get to meet you earthside but it is my job as a mother to ensure I share the special memories with him. Jah was robbed of his life and Geky was robbed of his father. For this I will never truly have complete peace but justice being served today helps the healing process.”

We will keep you posted on any further updates regarding Jenesis Sanchez.

At the time of the arrest, it was unclear what had gone down to warrant these charges. All that was known is that the singer had been arrested and remained in jail ahead of his bond hearing.

According to WSVN 7News, Hollywood Police claim they received a call on Sunday morning around 8 AM EST. It was said that a man was sleeping in his car around the intersection of North 62nd Avenue and Hollywood Boulevard. When first responders arrived on the scene, they tried to take Jacquees to the hospital. However, he became combative, which then led to his arrest.

Jacquees Remains In Jail…For Now

During this morning’s hearing, Jacquees’ bond was set at $3500. However, he is not in the clear just yet. The artist must first go through the paperwork process before officially being released. He is expected to leave the Broward County jail in short order.

As we explained this morning, this is not Jacquees’ first run-in with the authorities. Back in 2018, he dealt with traffic violations in Miami and Atlanta. Both led to arrests, although the Atlanta situation was much more serious, as he was caught driving at speeds of 116 MPH. Furthermore, in 2023, he was accused of choking and biting a woman in Georgia, which led to a battery arrest.

His current situation continues to develop, so stay tuned to HNHH for updates.

“It is with a broken heart that I share that my beloved wife, Angela Marie Stribling, passed away peacefully at home on Saturday, September 26, after a courageous two-year battle with brain cancer,” he wrote. “Her sister Darlene and I were by her side.”

He continued, “Angela always saw the goodness in people. Where others saw challenges, she saw possibilities, and she had a remarkable gift for bringing out the very best in everyone around her. We were married for four wonderful years, and she changed my life for the better in every possible way.”

Washington confirmed that a celebration of life ceremony will be held in Washington, D.C., though he said a date and venue will be announced later.

Stribling established her name during the early years of BET, becoming one of the network’s most recognizable personalities as the co-host of Screen Scene and a figure who often appeared on, Video Soul. She also co-hosted Jazz Central. She also became the first woman to ever host Quiet Storm on WHUR. She also launched Pillow Talk with Angela, a late-night program on WHUR that also broadcast on SiriusXM.

Angela Stribling Tribute

Former BET journalist Ed Gordon, who worked alongside Stribling, shared a heartfelt tribute on Facebook following the news of her passing.

“So very sad to hear Angela Stribling has passed away. We worked together and became friends during our years at the network and remained friends once we both moved on to other opportunities. Her years at BET saw her host a number of shows and her sultry voice made her a staple on radio in the DC  area and on Sirius,” he wrote. “During our last conversation, she told me that she and her husband would be spending more time in DC after being out west for a number of years. My prayers and best go out to him and her other loved ones. She was a sweet soul, RIP.”

Meanwhile, NBA Ben10 has been charged alongside his affiliates and is awaiting his own trial. During this time, the artist has been put in jail, and his lawyer is now trying to secure an emergency release. According to court documents, NBA Ben10 is being subjected to cruel conditions. For instance, he was only given one sandwich during the jail transfer.

Furthermore, his medical needs are allegedly not being met. He reportedly fell over in his wheelchair while trying to get to bed and was not helped up by any of the staff. Moreover, he has allegedly been wearing soiled undergarments. These conditions are inhumane, and it is easy to see why his lawyer would file this kind of emergency motion.

DJ Akademiks, on the other hand, had a much different take about the whole thing.

DJ Akademiks Speaks On NBA Ben10

In the clip above, Akademiks describes the conditions in the jail and uses this as a warning to those engaging in street life. He says this is what potentially awaits those who get caught up in the wrong lifestyle. Ak also noted that his dog currently receives better treatment.

As for this emergency release filing, a decision has not been made at this time. Although the hope is that the conditions will be tightened up, at the very least. While NBA Ben10’s release is unlikely right now, an improvement in his conditions would go a long way.

This is a developing story, and we will be sure to keep you updated.

He wore the classic white and red colorway, with crimson accents wrapping the heel and midsole. That scheme lines up well with Philadelphia’s red, white, and blue color palette, making it an easy pick for a first look in a new uniform.

A white compression sleeve on his right leg completed the look. It’s a small detail, but it added to the sense that this was a fully suited media shoot for his new team.

The Air Zoom Generation first appeared during LeBron’s rookie season in 2003, marking the start of his relationship with Nike as a signature athlete. Bringing it back at the start of a brand-new chapter feels intentional.

The shoe’s original design drew inspiration from the Hummer H2 LeBron drove as a teenager. That bold, chunky look still holds up today, especially with the clean white base on display here.

LeBron James’ Nike Air Zoom Generation

LeBron officially announced his move to Philadelphia earlier this year after weeks of speculation following his decision to play a record-breaking 24th season. Seeing him in a 76ers jersey is still a lot to process for longtime fans.

The Air Zoom Generation has stayed relevant well beyond its original run. Nike brought it back for retro releases in 2017, and again in 2023, including the “First Game” colorway tied to his NBA debut against Sacramento.

That history makes wearing it now feel like a full-circle moment. The shoe launched his signature line, and it’s now anchoring his first look with a new franchise more than two decades later.

Sneaker storylines have followed LeBron through every stage of his career, from the early Zoom Generation days to the modern LeBron 24. Media day is usually a quiet moment for footwear, but this pair gave fans something to talk about right away.

Given how much attention surrounds LeBron’s every move, expect plenty more sneaker storylines as the 2026-27 season gets closer.

Unfortunately, there weren’t many other big winners in hip-hop this year. Taylor Swift and Madonna set new records during this year’s ceremony. Madonna won seven awards last night, making the most wins of any artist that night. It also brought the number of VMAs to her name to 26 in total, only behind Beyoncé and Taylor Swift. She also set the record after opening the show for the fifth time in her career.

Cardi B & Kehlani Score Big At VMAs

Speaking of Taylor, she also had a hell of a night. On top of scoring two wins for Video Of The Year and Best Direction, she was awarded the MTV VMA Artist Director Honors. She also debuted her new self-directed video for “Patient Zero,” starring Dakota Johnson and Colin Farrell. The Video Of The Year win is a major milestone as it now marks her sixth victory in the category. Per Billboard, that’s three times more than Beyoncé, Kendrick Lamar, Eminem, Missy Elliott, and Rihanna, who’ve all won the award twice. 

The award show was hosted by Snoop Dogg and aired live from Los Angeles on September 27th on CBS, MTV, and Paramount+. It will also be available globally starting today (September 28th).

If you’ve been paying attention to the California rapper, then you would know that he has been swatted numerous times. Furthermore, there are parasocial fans out there who want to stalk him whenever he is out and about. On the flip side of that, there are antagonists who see the cameras and also want a piece of the action.

Wack 100 is there to make sure no one gets out of hand. That Blueface is able to move around with comfort and without issue. Over the weekend, that appeared to be a challenge as Celina Powell and Wack got into it.

In the clip below, Wack was livid with Celina Powell, claiming that she was attempting to extort the rapper-turned-streamer for $20,000. Furthermore, he included Ray J in the allegations.

Wack 100 Crashes Out On Celina Powell

Wack subsequently smashed the hood of Celina’s Lamborghini Urus, although he didn’t even make so much as a dent. Regardless, he sent a message, only for a swatting incident to occur a few minutes later.

In the clip, Ray J’s stream was happening at the same time, and it led to a conversation in which he assured Wack that he was not in on anything that Powell was allegedly scheming.

His allegations against Powell are most certainly heavy-handed, and there was no proof that she had actually done anything wrong. Regardless, it just goes to show the lengths that Wack 100 is going to to protect the Blueface brand right now.

While some believe he is a shill for JAŸ-Z, that is clearly not the case given his recent criticism of JAŸ-Z In 8. The new HBO Max docuseries on JAŸ-Z’s career has elicited some strong reactions so far, and not all of them have been in a positive direction.

Charlamagne’s issue with the series mostly has to do with the contributions from producer Rick Rubin. Rubin is notorious for having an ambiguous impact on the artists he works with. He’s not a musician, nor is he a producer in the traditional sense. Instead, he’s a glorified A&R who “curates vibes,” whatever that means.

As Charlamagne explains, he felt as though Rubin’s passion for hip-hop just wasn’t present in the docuseries. His questions were lacking, and as a result, JAŸ-Z didn’t give much insight.

Charlamagne Tha God Unimpressed With Rick Rubin

Charlamagne Tha God certainly is not alone in this criticism, as social media has offered up similar evaluations of the show. It’s unfortunate, especially when you consider the legend that is JAŸ-Z and everything he has accomplished throughout his career.

There is so much we still don’t know about his creative process. JAŸ-Z In 8 was supposed to be the catalyst to find all of these things out, and so far, the docuseries has fallen flat.

JAŸ-Z is having himself a big year, especially with his Yankee Stadium and European shows. He will be performing in Los Angeles soon, and there is no denying that fans are extremely excited.

There is also anticipation surrounding a potential album, although there are no guarantees that this is truly in the works. Unfortunately, fans will simply have to wait and see.

It was quite the surprise for the audience, who gave The Boy a roaring applause upon his entrance. The rapper popped up from under the stage before bowing to Karol G and embracing her. After the two performed their record, Drake continued the party with renditions of “Janice STFU” and “One Dance.”

Drake & Karol G Perform Together

Drake’s appreciation for Karol G has been well documented over the months, and their collaboration on No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto was initially expected to arrive on ICEMAN. In late July, the rapper was spotted at her Toronto concert looking ecstatic, a week before “Ahi” dropped on DSPs. However, that song was likely one that was rumored to be on ICEMAN. Days before the album’s arrival, a rumor surfaced claiming that Karol G was on the list of collaborators alongside Molly Santana and Future, who both appeared on “Run To Atlanta.” 

Outside of his recent appearance with Karol G, the rapper is still riding high off of the release of FOMO, the visual project he debuted on YouTube nearly two weeks ago. The project boasted visuals for a number of records from Habibti and Maid Of Honour, while also debuting a handful of unreleased music, one of which including his recent collaboration with Yeat and unheard music with Don Toliver. Drake and Don Toliver also debuted a remix of Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas,” which has been at the center of beef speculation lately since the re-uploaded visuals to the remix have removed all footage of Langley.
