Yesterday, “Bust It Baby” rapper Plies tweeted “If U Tell A Female Business Just When U Get Mad U A Fuck N*gga….” Even though, Plies didn’t direct it at anyone in particular, Chris Brown caught wind of it and believed it was a subliminal message directed at him. Brown immediately fired back by retweeting the original message and  he decided to follow it up by saying “If no one listens to your music anymore your career is dead blood.” The social media beef didn’t last much longer, it concluded with Plies posting a picture on Instagram and captioning it “Actually, no, my post wasn’t about you, but if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that bitch up & wear it.”

Recently, Chris Brown has been going through a messy public breakup with his girlfriend of the past four years, model, Karrueche Tran. This past weekend, people began speculating that the couple spilt had called it quits, when she posted a heartfelt message on Instagram and began talking about finding the strength within yourself to move on after a bad breakup. Brown confirmed the rumors and decided to air their issues out in the public. He claimed that Tran cheated on him with former arch enemy, Drake, and only visited him once during his four month prison sentence.

Brown has since apologized for dragging his ex’s name through the mud. Yesterday, he posted a picture of himself with his head down (which seems as if he is mourning the loss of someone,) as he stands in front of a piece of graffiti artwork depicting sadness.

Being young and dumb is one of my strong suits and emotional at best. I love hard and react impulsively when I'm hurt at times. I don't think social media is a place to air out or hash out personal problems and a nigga feel hella WACK for doing it. So I AM APOLOGIZING I live in a glass house and the same shit that makes me great also is my curse. Everybody know I love that girl. I don't care how my image my look to the public because I'm still gonna be the best at what I do. I just want baby girl to know I apologize!

Well it seems that Boosie will be home a couple days earlier than what his brother expected. According to Miss Info, the rapper will be home February 13th.

The Bad Azz rapper has been incarcerated since 2009 for pleading guilty to third degree marijuana possession and violating parole. His sentenced was later extended when he plead guilty to attempting to smuggle drugs.

His official Twitter page tweeted “#COUNTDOWN” last week, which seems fitting since his alleged release date is about two weeks away.

Philly is getting a lot of love lately, but let’s not forget the Broad Street Bully who helped give the game a bird’s-eye-view of Illadelph a long time ago. While time dwindles until Sigel has to serve 2 years in prison due to tax evasion, hold him down and listen to his latest release, This Time, on Ruffhouse Records. Buy it here.
