Lloyd Banks Arrested In Canada

G-Unit star, Lloyd Banks, has been arrested on suspicion of assault in Canada. He was taken into custody by police in Ontario this past weekend after allegedly attacking club promoter Chris Hines.

According to AllHipHop.com, Chris Hines booked Banks to perform several tracks at Club N.V., Lloyd Banks showed up late and apparently only performed one song before he left the stage. The real trouble started when Chris refused to pay Lloyd, which prompted a fight between the two, even sent Hines to a local hospital to be treated for head trauma, and multiple contusions.

Banks was arrested alongside with his buddies Shaun McGee, Tyrell Cooper and Nicholas Sloan. All four men are facing charges of robbery, assault, and forced confinement.

If in fact Banks tried to leave after performing only one song, then he shouldn’t get paid the full amount that was agreed upon!

Lil Wayne Has Hometown Farewell Show Before Heading To Jail

Muti-platinum recording artist, Lil Wayne, returned to his hometown of New Orleans to perform at what he called, his “farewell” tour.

“I’m nothing without you,” he told the screaming crowd of thousands of fans at the New Orleans Arena after opening the concert with “A Milli,” which last year earned him a Grammy for best rap solo.

His real name, Dwayne Carter, pleaded guilty in October to a weapons possession charge and will be sentenced Feb. 9. His plea deal calls for a year in jail. Dwayne will only be 28 years old after he serves his time, assuming he isn’t released early.

The charge stemmed from a 2007 traffic stop of his tour bus in New York when authorities said they smelled marijuana, and as they approached, Lil Wayne tossed aside a bag with a loaded .40-caliber handgun.

Lil Wayne’s next album, “Rebirth,” is due for release Feb. 1. After New Orleans, he is scheduled to play a couple of dates in Texas and another show in southern Louisiana.

Garth Brooks Sues Hospital Over Donation

Starpulse.com is reporting Garth Brooks is demanding the return of a $500,000 donation he made to a hospital in Oklahoma after medical executives reportedly reneged on a deal to name a building after his late mother.

The singer handed over the big check to Integris Canadian Valley Regional in Yukon in 2005 on the condition that the cash was used to fund the building of a new hospital wing, dedicated to his mom Colleen, who died from cancer in 1999.

The medical center underwent an extensive renovation, but the building Brooks donated the cash for never materialized, reports TMZ.com.

Brooks is taking legal action against hospital chiefs for breach of contract, but Integris bosses insist the mishap was a big misunderstanding and are confident the dispute will reach a “swift and amicable end.”
