West Coast Rapper Lefty Gunplay was asked by Tony Yayo about not using the N-word.
Yayo-“You say you don’t use the N-word, explain that to me?”
Lefty - “I don’t speak like that, and I know it’s a respect thing to not come up to a black and use that word, it’s not in my vocabulary”
Uncle Murda- “ but out here it’s different, because we grew up with Latinos and we all together, in New York it’s different.”
Lefty - “but if he were to do that in prison…”

they need each other in the studio and everyone can tell
Pharrell Williams is seeking to have Chad Hugo's lawsuit against him dismissed, which his lawyers call “vague and ambiguous.”
His lawyers say Hugo’s latest complaint names EARTHGANG’s “U Gotta” in its copyright ownership allegations but leaves out eight titles previously listed in that section. They argue he still hasn’t clearly explained his contributions or which copyrights he claims to own.
Titles no longer listed in the complaint:
▫️ “Motomami”
▫️ “La Combi Versace”
▫️ “Cash In Cash Out”
▫️ “Love Is Not Written”
▫️ “Pure”
▫️ “Real One”
▫️ “Lost and Found”
▫️ “Freestyle”
Pharrell's lawyers question why those details are still unclear after years of disputes and three versions of the complaint:
“In fact, as incomprehensible as it is, it appears that Hugo has no idea which compositions or sound recordings he supposedly authored – even though he claims to have been there, right by [Pharrell's] side, the whole time.”
If the copyright ownership and related accounting claims are thrown out, his lawyers also want the remaining state-law claims dismissed without prejudice. Those include breach of fiduciary duty, two accounting claims, and declaratory relief over LLC operating agreements. That would leave the door open for Hugo to pursue those state-law claims in state court.
