Federal authorities on Thursday outlined new allegations tied to the arrest of Pooh Shiesty, offering a more detailed account of an incident they say unfolded earlier this year. According to reports, officials from the Department of Justice described what they called “an armed takeover” at a recording studio on January 10, 2026. Investigators said multiple individuals were present at the scene, though not all have been publicly identified. According to prosecutors, several people — including Gucci Mane — were allegedly held at gunpoint and robbed during the encounter. The claims have not yet been tested in court. Authorities identified Shiesty, born Lontrell Denell Williams Jr., as the person who arranged a meeting initially framed as a discussion about recording terms. At the time, he remained affiliated with Gucci Mane’s 1017 Global Music label. Prosecutors now contend the meeting was used to pressure a contractual release. In their account, one individual was compelled to sign documents relinquishing rights while under threat. Officials allege a firearm described as an AK-style pistol was displayed during the confrontation. Violent Studio Robbery Sparks Multiple Arrests The Justice Department further alleges that several others took part, including Big30, identified in filings as Rodney Lamont Wright Jr. While the contract discussion was underway, authorities say other participants took watches, jewelry and cash from those inside the studio. One person was reportedly choked until losing consciousness, and investigators claim an exit was blocked to prevent anyone from leaving. Those details form the basis of multiple charges now under review. Legal responses from those accused have not been fully presented. Officials said most of the individuals named in the case have been arrested across Dallas, Memphis and Nashville, with one remaining suspect still being sought at the time of the announcement. Among those taken into custody are Shiesty and his father, Lontrell Williams Sr., whom authorities allege had a role in planning the episode. If convicted, defendants could face significant penalties, including life sentences. The investigation remains ongoing, with additional developments expected as proceedings move forward.

Pooh Shiesty’s legal troubles have taken a new turn. The rapper—real name Lontrell D. Williams Jr.—was arrested on Wednesday by federal officers in Dallas, Texas, TMZ reports. Hours earlier, FBI officials had conducted a raid on his Memphis home. Amid the raid, the rapper’s father, Lontrell D. Williams Sr., was also placed in custody. Sources tell TMZ the rapper has been booked in connection with a criminal case. However, the charges against the rapper, along with his father, have yet to be revealed. It’s only been a few months since the rapper was released from federal prison after serving over five years in connection with a 2020 Florida shooting. The rapper received an early release back in October 2025 after a combination of time served and good behavior. A press conference has been scheduled for later today. Stay tuned for further updates.

Kanye West halted his highly anticipated comeback performance Wednesday night at SoFi Stadium after becoming visibly frustrated with the stage production. The show, which marked his first major concert in Los Angeles in five years, hit a significant snag when the artist took issue with the lighting design during a transition in his set. The tension began during a performance of his 2007 hit “Good Life” when West suddenly ordered the music to be cut. Addressing his production crew in front of the sold-out crowd, West reportedly complained that the disco-style lighting was clashing with the heavy smoke effects on stage. He described the aesthetic choice as “corny” and refused to continue until the atmosphere met his specific visual standards. Despite the brief interruption, the rapper eventually restarted the song from the top once the lighting was adjusted. The concert comes as West promotes his latest album, “Bully,” and prepares for an expanded tour schedule that includes a headline slot at the upcoming Wireless Festival. Fans in attendance noted that while the outburst was vintage West, the energy in the stadium remained high throughout the career-spanning set. The Los Angeles show is a pivotal moment for West, who has recently faced questions regarding his creative process. Along with the release of the “Bully” tracklist, West has actively cleared up rumors regarding the use of artificial intelligence in his new music, insisting on the authenticity of his recent recordings. The SoFi Stadium event served as a live validation of his new material for thousands of California fans.

Boxing fans were buzzing when the announcement of the second Floyd Mayweather Jr and  Manny Pacquiao fight was announced. The highly anticipated rematch was slated for September 19 at The Sphere in Las Vegas. But since then, there has been a lot of confusion surrounding the bout. According to ESPN, Mayweather said that it might not take place at The Sphere in Las Vegas and that it would be an exhibition. “As of right now, we don’t know exactly where the fight is going to be,” Mayweather said. “We don’t know the location of the fight. The Sphere is one of the places that they talked about. So we don’t know if it’s a hundred percent going to be there. And this is not actually a fight. It’s an exhibition.” View this post on Instagram Jas Mathur, CEO of Manny Pacquiao Promotions, dismissed Mayweather’s remarks. “As of right now, the fight is still on. There is no termination of any sort, and he has signed for a professional fight,” Mathur said. “Floyd Mayweather is officially in breach of his contract. He’s been in a breach since the day he went out and said what he said on Saturday, and he’s officially in a breach as of yesterday.” Mathur also said that Mayweather was in the loop about a recent site visit to The Sphere that “included 35-40 representatives of Manny Pacquiao Promotions, Mayweather Promotions, and Netflix.” Also, producers Hidden Empires, EverWonder Studios, and Limitless X Holdings were present. Mathur went on to say that Mayweather has already received an advance on his fight purse. “Floyd Mayweather signed not one, not two, but three different agreements on three different dates with two different parties that ultimately got intertwined in the month of January,” Mathur said. “And this is all related to his return to professional boxing. The first one was on October 24th. The second one was on November 6th. The third one was on December 14th. He received money for all three agreements when he signed them. Not only that, but he’s also taken out an advance on his purse for his fight against Pacquiao.” Mayweather has an exhibition scheduled with former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson on April 26 in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Also, he takes on Greek kickboxer Mike Zambidis in June in Athens, Greece.

Former New England Patriots football player Stefon Diggs is scheduled to face trial on May 4 in a criminal case stemming from assault and strangulation allegations tied to a dispute with a former private chef. A judge set the trial date during a pretrial hearing in Boston on Wednesday, advancing a case that has drawn attention across the football world. Prosecutors allege the incident occurred last year inside Diggs’ residence and resulted in multiple criminal charges. Stefon Diggs, who was released by the New England Patriots last month, is facing several criminal charges stemming from an alleged dispute with his former private chef. https://t.co/JlEUHk3mkU — NBC News (@NBCNews) April 1, 2026 Diggs did not attend the hearing. Court records show he is currently out of state, and the judge did not require his presence during the proceeding. During the hearing, attorneys for both sides addressed several pending motions. The discussion focused on defense requests for access to text messages and emails that lawyers say could support Diggs’ account of the dispute. The parties also resolved procedural questions surrounding a protective order governing communications and evidence in the case. Diggs first appeared in court in early February for his arraignment. The proceeding lasted slightly more than a minute. The veteran football player entered a not guilty plea and left the courthouse without addressing reporters. The court released Diggs on personal recognizance. As part of the order, he must avoid contact with the alleged victim while the case moves through the legal system. NFL Football Player Stefon Diggs Criminal Trial Begins May 4 After Being Released By The New England Patriots Outside the courthouse after the arraignment, Diggs’ attorney, Mitchell Schuster, said the former Patriots receiver intends to fight the charges and expects the evidence to clear his name. “We are confident that after the facts and evidence are reviewed in this case he will be exonerated,” Schuster said. “It’s frustrating for him to have to be here knowing what really happened.” Schuster added that the defense believes a full review of communications and witness accounts will reshape the case. Legal observers say testimony may prove decisive. A legal analyst with NBC10 Boston, said the prosecution could face difficulty without direct testimony from the alleged victim. “The case really will hinge on who’s credible here, as to what took place in his house between the two of them,” Coyne said. “Absent her testifying, it is almost an impossible case for the government to succeed without the witness testimony.” The scheduled trial now marks the next stage in a closely watched legal battle involving football’s most recognizable wide receivers. Courts will determine whether the evidence supports the charges against Diggs.
