Whoa. Guess I gotta start being nicer to these guys. The Virginian-Pilot reports:

UPDATE: We got the papers, got the papers.

“The owner of a defunct Virginia Beach nightclub who has ties to the rap stars Clipse has been charged in U.S. District Court with leading a $10 million drug ring.

The 82-count indictment charges Gonzalez, 34, of Chesapeake and six others in a drug conspiracy that stretches from Hampton Roads across the country to South America and back. Police and federal agents were still searching for Gonzalez, also known as Geezy, as of late Monday

Federal agents recorded many of the drug sales, according to the indictment.

In one call, Gonzalez is told by one of his suppliers that, ‘I’m here with my boy and he’s giving me something right now… it’s really nice… like half in buds… half in shake,’ the indictment says.

RR Rumor: Red Cafe’s A Bad Boy
alt

My homegirl Angela Yee went down to Atlanta for the Core DJ’s conference this past weekend, and Diddy pretty much scolded all the turntable assassins for being copycats and afraid to embrace and break new music. Yup, Yee got some Flip Cam on the way, but Puff advises: “Don’t be afraid to clear the dance floor.” Um, ok. Good advice.

Anyway, according to a Bad Boy promo guy who couldn’t resist Yee’s charms, Red Cafe is the newest member of the Bad Boy team. And he’s gonna make that nigga Puff… nevermind. Hey if you’re still scoring at home, you’ll recall Cafe is signed to Akon’s Konvict label. But supposedly, this is gonna be some kind of big business co-venture. The lengths Combs will go for A level lyrics for his Last Train to Nowhere. Smh. “What else?” Nothing. That’s it.

UPDATE: Joni Mitchell YN never lied.
