YG Drops Video For “One Time Comin'” & Says New Mixtape “Koming Soon” [WATCH]

Following the release of his new single “One Time Comin’,” YG drops the visuals for his anti-police brutality single.

The video displays the inequalities colored people deal with concerning law enforcement and also the inefficiencies that dashboard and body cameras have during police interactions. Time and time again officers still carelessly shoot even when victims raise their hands and surrender during a pursuit.

Towards the end of the video you will see the victim in the video finally surrenders to police after being chased, but the camera blacks out and all you hear is rounds of ammunition. YG ends the video with text that reads, “Our condolences go out to all the families who have lost innocent loved 1s to police brutality.”

Currently on his “Fuck Donald Trump Tour,” YG took to Twitter to say he’s dropping a mixtape soon.

That’s a nice way to break a promise, YG. Can’t wait to hear the new sounds.

Ty Dolla $ign Reportedly Owes IRS Over $180,000

Ty Dolla $ign reportedly owes over $180,000 in back taxes.

The Campaign rapper is exactly $180,969.35 in the hole for not paying the proper amount of taxes for 3 years in a row. The government needs $16,617.05 for 2011, $54,626.91 for 2013, and $109,725.39 for 2014 to fully pay off his debt.  It’s pretty obvious how significant the difference is between each year since Ty’s popularity after his 2012 album drop of Beach House.

Let’s hope Ty can get that paper and pay the IRS what they need.
