Police in Los Angeles have confirmed that they have arrested one man in connection with a shooting that left rapper Young Dolph in a critical but stable condition. 43-year-old Corey McClendon was detained near the scene on Monday, September 26 Billboard reports.
 
  Officer Irma Mota stated that McClendon was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. Police are believed to be still looking for two other suspects in connection with the shooting.
The incident occurred outside the Loews Hollywood Hotel, when Dolph got into an altercation with three men. The Memphis rapper fell to the ground, and one of the man reportedly fired at him multiple times. According to police officials, Dolph ran into a local business while the suspects fled.
Speaking on Wednesday, Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck told KABC-TV Dolph was “targeted because of who he is and some kind of beef that’s ongoing. I think this was something he brought with him from across the United States.”
Though TMZ reported that Yo Gotti was implicated in the shooting, L.A.P.D. Public Information Officer Sal Ramirez denied the claim to Pitchfork.
In February, the Memphis rapper was shot at over 100 times while in Charlotte, North Carolina. He was uninjured in that shooting, reportedly thanks to his $300,000 bulletproof SUV.

5 Major Highlights Of Davido’s Career So Far

It is important to make it clear from the get-go that this article is not about who is better than who, or who international pass. In this piece, I’d be looking at the high points of the music career of Davido, bearer of the Omo Baba Olowo title; since it began in 2011. From the days of attempting to introduce himself to the industry with Back When, to this day, when Fall, If, Pere have become hot market products from the same maker; Davido has built for himself an enviable music career. There might be some spottable imperfections, but with the impressive number of landmarks and achievements he has recorded, one would be tempted to agree with him on his self-conferred legendary status. In a period of about six years, not only has Davido piled up several grand titles (Omo Baba Olowo, Baddest, Mr Ronaldo), the DMW boss has claimed tens of awards for himself and he is poised to claim more and more awards, with his liking for releasing hot-selling ...

Things we learnt from the p square split

Good Times! I must confess when i saw the circulated video of Peter, Paul & Jude Okoye in an heated argument that almost resulted to blows at their Lawyer’s office, my first reaction to it was ‘Not Again!!’ On Naijaloaded, i have lost count of how many articles we have on the P-Square fight saga-It is becoming another day in the office thing. Still, Here Are 5 Things We Have Learnt From The P-Square Fight This Time Around: 1- Family Does Not Mean Bonding If you followed the successful P-Square group right from the genesis of their career, you will be stunned at why they are choosing to go solo, if you value family, you will be sad seeing the abuse and show of fist in Festus Keyamo’s office. Remember They boldly told us back in the days, ‘Peter and Paul them be 1 no be 2.’ Well… 2- Paul Okoye And Jude Seem To Be On The Same Team If you saw the video from their lawyer’s office, Paul Okoye and Jude teamed up to fight Peter Okoye who was probably recording the video. ...

Drake's dad gets massive tattoo of Drake on his arm

Drake 's dad is nothing if not proud of his son, and he'll be reminding everyone of that ... for the rest of his life. Dennis Graham  got an enormous tattoo of his boy's face on his right arm  ... compliments of tattoo artist,  Money Mike . We're told Drake's dad met Mike at his birthday party and told him he wanted to get the ink to match Drake getting Dennis' mug shot tattooed on his arm in 2014. And, of course, because he loves his son. Money Mike went to Dennis' house a few days later and tatted him up with Drake's mug in a 4-hour sesh ... and did it for free. Drake has lots of face tats on his bod -- his dad's mug shot and other family faces tattooed on his back, and  Lil Wayne's face  on the back of his arm.
