Kodak Black found himself in even more legal trouble this week, as he was accused of assaulting a woman at a Miami strip club earlier this year. The rapper, who just released his debut album, is currently in jail, facing a different charge of criminal sexual conduct dating from just over a year ago.
USC’s annual Springfest was shut down before headliner Rae Sremmurd ever hit the stage due to safety concerns from overcrowding. Travis Scott and Migos were also on the bill and were kicked off stage by police.
Late last week Florida rapper XXXTentacion—whose real name is Jahseh Onfroy—was released from jail in his home state after pleading no contest to charges of home invasion and aggravated battery with a firearm. These charges stem from a November 2015 incident in which he allegedly entered the home of Che Thomas and robbed him at gunpoint. The deal to withhold adjudication of the charges essentially means that the disposition of the crimes he is charged with committing will be suspended, provided he successfully completes a six-year probationary period under court mandated conditions. Among a series of requirements, the probation order states that Onfroy will not violate any law, possess a firearm or weapon, associate with any persons engaged in criminal activity, or visit places where drugs are used. If he manages to complete this strict probation, the charges will effectively disappear and Onfroy’s record will be clear.
