After both 40 Glocc and Game appeared in court yesterday (March 10) following a 2012 altercation between both parties, Game uploaded a picture of 40 Glocc in court, on Instagram and claimed that the Galveston, Texas-born rapper was “snitchin.”
In the caption to his Instagram photo, the Compton, California wordsmith also fessed up to beating 40 Glocc up “for the world to see.” The accompanying caption to Game’s court photo can be found below.

The pair’s appearance in court this week stemmed from a $4.5 million lawsuit 40 filed against Game following their brawl.

Jay Z;s $56 Million Aspiro Bid Accepted

The Swedish television and music streaming services company known as Aspiro is reportedly close to rejecting a deal made by Project Panther Bidco, a subsidiary of Jay Z’s Shawn Carter Enterprises.
Billboard.com reports that an offer of $56 million was made by Project Panther Bidco, but may be rejected due to minority shareholders who control 10 percent of Aspiro.
According to the website, among the concerns of the minority shareholders is the fact that Project Panther Bidco hasn't been upfront with “its plans for international expansion” and “the calculations that went into the initial $56 million bid.”
Aspiro’s minority shareholders and Project Panther Bidco now have until March 11 to begin negotiations and decide whether or not to accept or deny any offers.
At the top of this year, it was reported that Jay Z put in his bid for the music streaming service, which currently has 500,000 paid users, in December, and shortly after received preliminary acceptance by the company's board.
“Panther believes that the recent developments in the entertainment industry, with the migration to media streaming, offers great potential for increased entertainment consumption and an opportunity for artists to further promote their music. Panther's strategic ambition revolves around global expansion and up-scaling of Aspiro's platform, technology and services,” a spokesperson for Project Panther Bidco said in a statement in January, according to Billboard.com.

Pharrell,Robin Thicke Ordered To Pay $7.3 Million Dollars To Marvin Gaye Family

Blurred Lines” By Robin Thicke, Pharrell, And T.I. was a monstrous hit in 2013, making an estimated $16.5 million. Soon after the song caught on, Marvin Gaye‘s family struck the musicians with a massive lawsuit. The family claims ‘Blurred Lines’ is a clear rip off of Marvin’s song, “Got To Give Up“.
Earlier today (March 10) a jury decided that the song was, in fact, infringing on Gaye’s song. According to Variety, the Gaye family feels justice has been served.
“Right now, I feel free,” Marvin Gaye’s daughter, Nona Gaye, said after the verdict. “Free from … Pharrell Williams and Robin Thicke’s chains and what they tried to keep on us and the lies that were told.”

Shooting At Lil Wayne's Miami Beach House;Wayne Responds

According to a Miami News Station, there has been a shooting at Lil Wayne‘s house. WSVN was first to report the incident.

“Miami Beach Police set up a perimeter around the house, located at 94 Lagorce Circle, after receiving a 911 call indicating shots were fired.
Officials said SWAT has been called on to the scene and no entry to the home has been made yet.
It is still unclear if anyone was injured or if the rapper was home at the time of the incident.”

UPDATE:

So apparently this all might be a prank call…TMZ reports that even though the 911 caller claimed 4 people had already been shot, police are beginning to think it’s a case of “Swatting.” Wayne also took to Twitter to address the situation.
“The bizarre report comes 11 days after police raced to the home to check on a report of a suspicious person lurking outside the home. Cops let the guy go because when they arrived he was on public property.  
As for today’s incident … we’re told Wayne is in Miami but is not at home.
Police now believe this might be a case of “swatting” … where someone places a prank emergency call in order to prompt a full force response from cops.”
