Transcript
00:00Cardi B accidentally donates her hair.
00:05Nicki Minaj is begged to cancel her performance.
00:09Plus, A$AP Ferg reacts to A$AP Rocky's Sweden drama.
00:14Hey guys, it's Ali for Hollywood Life with your hip-hop roundup,
00:17starting with Elvis Presley because he's dropping a mixtape with G-Eazy.
00:22Eh, just kidding.
00:22But TMZ reports that G-Eazy is one of the top names in consideration
00:27to play Elvis in his upcoming film.
00:30The site says the rapper is in talks with Warner Brothers
00:32and made a pitch to the director to show how serious he is about portraying the king.
00:37But alright, let's talk about Detroit's Afrofuture Fest
00:40because after discovering their segregated ticket pricing,
00:44rapper Tiny Jag has backed out.
00:46The tickets for the festival reportedly cost $10 for people of color
00:49and $20 for people not of color.
00:52Tiny Jag caught wind of the situation from a fan
00:55and took to Twitter to announce the cancellation of her performance.
00:58But speaking of canceling a performance,
01:00the Human Rights Foundation is asking Nicki Minaj to cancel her performance
01:04at the Jeddah World Fest in Saudi Arabia later this year.
01:08Their letter states that if Nicki were to move forward with her performance
01:11for the festival sponsored by the Crown Prince,
01:14she will be in league with people who respond to freedom of expression
01:17and thought with murder.
01:19The letter was sent out to Nicki as well as Robert Stevenson
01:22and Belle Adelson at Republic Records.
01:25At the time of this recording, none of them have responded to the letter.
01:28Now to A$AP Rocky, the rapper is being held in Sweden following a brawl last week.
01:33Rocky's lawyer spoke out in a video recently explaining
01:36why the judge sided with keeping Rocky in custody.
01:39The court found that he's suspected of an assault but not a severe assault
01:45as the prosecutor wanted.
01:49But the court unfortunately found that there is a risk of him leaving the country
01:54which is very unfortunate and I really don't understand why the court could find that
02:00because this is a very famous artist of course and he would be glad to come back to court trial later on.
02:08A$AP Ferg took to Instagram to talk about the situation and said Rocky is being held in solitary confinement
02:14with no visitors or phone call privileges and urged for the rapper's release.
02:19But okay, let's talk Cardi B because she got a little carried away during a recent performance in London
02:24and tossed her wig into the crowd.
02:27Afterwards, the rapper took to Instagram to say she wants the wig back
02:30and asked whoever has it to DM her.
02:32But alright guys, hit that sub like and bell button,
