$300,000 Stolen From Rapper Trina, Others -posted 30 Aug 2003 by MHT101
The artist, known as Katrina Laverne Taylor, was performing early Friday at Club Dynasty when an assailant persuaded a hotel employee to give him a key to the artist's rooms.
The man posing as the manager for hip-hop artist Trina stole more than $300,000 in cash and property from her and two other entertainers.
Property stolen at the Greenville Hilton included jewelry, clothes, promotional items and music equipment, according to authorities.
No arrests had been made as of Saturday.
A California State appellate court upheld a $5.5 million dollar judgment against Death Row Records, in regard to a lawsuit filed by Kurupt's former managers.
Lamont and Kenneth Brumfield filed the lawsuit against the label, claiming that the label conspired to steal the artist and cheat them out of significant royalties.
The initial ruling in April awarded the Brumfield's $14 million, which the judge reduced.
Ice Cube will executive produce and star in a new film, "Willie."
Casting has started on the drama, which is based on the true story of Willie Davis, who served as a full time janitor of Louisiana's Arthur Smith Junior High and was also the school's basketball coach. "Willie" is the first of several films Ice Cube will produce under a deal between his Cube Vision productions and Revolution Studios. Cube will also produce two other films under the deal with Revolution, the action film "Clash" and the roadtrip comedy "Are We There Yet?" Filming for "Willie" starts in the fall.- Source: AHH
