CALLING OUT MEEK

12:30 PM PST -- Meek just responded and he's accusing Game of making up crap to push records. His IG post says ..."U wanna fight? Next morning a diss raps ... Then the pre-order links! THE JIG IS UP YALL GUYS REAL RAPPERS! Make sure y'all go support them industry cats!"

The Game is accusing Meek Mill of snitching because of the investigation into the robbery of Sean Kingston in an L.A. nightclub.

Game ripped into Meek onstage Thursday night, but it was unclear why he was calling him a snitch. Sources close to both rappers tell us this goes back to a June incident at Penthouse Nightclub & Dayclub.

TMZ broke the story ... Kingston got smashed in the head with a bottle and then the attackers snatched a $300k chain off his neck. Both Game and Meek were in the club that evening.

We're told Game believes Meek dropped a dime on him to Kingston's people, and told them Game or someone in his crew was involved in the heist.

Onstage in Miami, Game strongly hinted investigators questioned him about the crime.

Our law enforcement sources tell us Game was never a suspect ... and the investigation's been closed because Kingston's no longer cooperating.

Katt Williams Busted Again ... While Making Good On Another Case

Published | Updated

12:40 PM PST -- We've learned the new warrant Katt was arrested for was from an incident in February where Williams allegedly threw a man's phone. Katt has been released from jail on a promise to appear.

Katt Williams got arrested again -- only this time it happened when he tried doing right by the law.

Law enforcement sources tell us Katt got booked by cops Thursday when he showed up to court in East Point, GA to squash a bench warrant against him from July. Unfortunately for him, there was a completely different warrant out for his arrest in Fulton County ... so they cuffed him on the spot.

According to court docs, Katt now faces a new charge of 2nd degree criminal property damage -- a felony -- from an incident back in February. It's unclear what exactly happened ... but we're told Katt is still locked up since he hasn't posted a bond.

Katt's been in and out of jails and courthouses a lot lately ... and it doesn't look like he plans to leave 'em anytime soon.

The Game Diss Track Threatens 'Snitch' Meek Mill ... Wants to Bang Nicki Minaj

Published | Updated

The Game is going after Meek Mill with some serious threats in a new diss track ... telling Meek to watch his back, letting him know he's gonna have sex with Nicki Minaj.

Game dropped "92 Bars" Friday morning ... which possibly explains why he started going HAM on Meek Thursday night in a Miami nightclub, calling him out as a snitch.

Check out the song -- the reference to his "pool stick" and Nicki is an instant classic ... as diss tracks go, anyway. Game also reveals one of the 3 Kardashians he says he's banged. It's a little disappointing.

As we first reported, Game's entourage was the target of a drive-by shooting outside the Fontainebleau Hotel ... after the nightclub gig.

There's no evidence whatsoever connecting Meek to the shooting.

For what it's worth ... Game's old nemesis, Stiches, is now taking credit for it. Smart ... copping to a felony on social media.

Bobbi Kristina Nick Gordon No-Shows ... Loses Wrongful Death Suit

Published | Updated

Bobbi Kristina's boyfriend has been found responsible for her death after failing to show up in court for the wrongful death lawsuit her family filed against him.

Nick Gordon repeatedly failed to meet court deadlines in the case, and his no-show Friday in an Atlanta court was the final straw. The judge entered a judgment against him, giving the estate the win by default ... according to Bobby Brown's attorney.

You'll recall Bobbi's estate filed the suit against Gordon, alleging he gave her the toxic mix of drugs, which the medical examiner said played the key role in her drowning death.

Bobby's attorney tells us the judge's ruling confirms what the family believed all along ... that "Nick Gordon was responsible for her death." Any damages Nick will be ordered to pay will be determined in a future hearing.

No criminal charges were ever filed against Gordon.

Law enforcement tells us ... the knife was collected as evidence from the scene. Cops say the significance of its discovery is unclear at this moment.

The Gordon family's attorney, Steve Nichols, tells TMZ ... the family believes the knife played an important part in what led to Bob taking his own life.

Sources tell us the knife is a strong sign there may have been mutual combat between Robert "Baja Bob" and Sharon before their deaths.

Police have said Gordon strangled Sharon and then killed himself with a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Nichols tells us there's never been a history of violence in the Gordons' long marriage.

The Game Entourage Targeted in Miami Beach Shooting

Published | Updated

The Game's crew was the target of a shooting outside a famous Miami Beach hotel ... according to cops.

Police tell us around 7:30 AM a Mustang convertible drove past the valet outside the Fontainebleau Hotel and fired multiple shots into a white Mercedes-Benz G Wagon ... which cops are saying is associated with Game. The SUV was empty.

The Game was hosting and performing with DJ Stevie J the song "Heard Ah That" produced by LooseCannon S.L.I.M. and XpMuzik Thursday night at STORY Nightclub presented by Headliner MG ... a few miles down the street from the hotel. Cops say no other vehicles were hit and there were no injuries.

The rapper's manager, Wack 100, tells TMZ the vehicle that actually belongs to their crew is the black Chevy SUV next to the G Wagon and inside the police tape. He says their vehicle was not hit. Game also had a white Range Rover parked about 15 feet away from where the shots were fired.

During his gig at STORY ... Game took some verbal shots at Meek Mill, calling him a snitch. It's unclear if that's in any way related to the shooting.

PRES. YEEZY'S NOT THAT CRAZY

Jamie Foxx has a ton of mixed emotions about this year's presidential election -- but he's sure of one thing ... we're getting closer to President West in 2020.

Jamie was in Bev Hills when he told us the comedian in him is LOVING most of the rhetoric about Trump vs. Clinton. As he put it ... the "level of craziness" is off the charts -- and the way Jamie sees it ... Kanye West should be sitting back and licking his chops at all of it.

Check out the clip. It's a not so subtle dig at Trump.

But Jamie does admit he's more than a little biased. Aren't we all?

Norm Macdonald House Sitter Dies in Comedian's Home ... Overdose Suspected

Published | Updated

A friend of Norm Macdonald's son was found dead in the condo where he was house sitting for the comedian ... TMZ has learned.

23-year-old Michael Huettner's body was discovered by his parents after his girlfriend informed them he was watching Norm's home and cat ... according to sources close to the Huettner family. Norm was traveling out of the country with his son, who was high school friends with Huettner.

We're told when they arrived the front door was open, they walked in and found Huettner dead on a bed. Law enforcement sources tell us there were multiple pills and pill bottles in the room ... including oxycodone.

We're told the operating theory that he died from an overdose is based on the scene, and also because the family told investigators Huettner had previous issues with oxycodone. We're told several bottles, with pills legally prescribed to Macdonald, were also found.

LAPD went to the home, but saw no signs of anything criminal and handed the investigation off to the L.A. County Coroner's Office. It's unclear which, if any, of the pills Huettner took ... toxicology is pending.

Our family sources tell us the Huettners have contacted federal authorities requesting further investigation into the drugs found at the scene.

We're told Norm and his son are fully cooperating with the death investigation.

Marvin Gaye Son Rips 'Sexual Healing' Movie ... It's Hot Garbage

Published | Updated

Marvin Gaye's son is ready to go to war again in court ... this time to shut down the release of a biopic about his father, which he calls pure trash.

Marvin Gaye III tells TMZ ... no one in his family is backing "Sexual Healing" -- the film music mogul Vassal Benford is producing.

Gaye III's got a lot of problems with what he's seen of the film. He says it's untrue, exploitative, with a ton of holes and worst of all ... doesn't "hold the vibe of my father."

He adds the family's attorney has already been contacted, and -- perhaps buoyed by their success in the "Blurred Lines" case -- they're confident the movie won't see the light of day.

As for Benford, he tells us it's full steam ahead, and several superstars will be involved in recording the soundtrack. He even bought a baller ring as a gift for himself ... to celebrate making the movie.

So, that's what's going on.
