Lil Wayne has been at the center of more than his fair share of hip hop's biggest controversies thus far in 2013, and it looks like the YMCMB star may have landed himself in another one. Footage surfaced of Weezy stomping in the American flag during taping of the video for his single "God Bless America."

Rapper Chief Keef was arrested a few minutes after leaving court yesterday (June 17th.) The controversial hip hop star, born Keith Cozart, was arrested blocks from the Skokie Courthouse only minutes after pleading guilty to speeding 110 mph on the Edens Expressway last month. Cozart's attorney Leah Starkman said he was arrested after his court hearing on a misdemeanor trespassing charge, according to the Chicago Tribune.

Keef's guilty plea put him on probation for 18 months and landed him 60 hours of community service, as well as a $531 fine.

"You think you're invincible, and you're certainly not," said Cook County Circuit Court Judge Earl Hoffenberg. "Violate (conditions of the plea agreement) and you'll find out you're not. ... I sure hope I don't see you again, because if I do you better be ready to go to jail."

Jay-Z revealed during Game 5 of the NBA Finals between the Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs that he will be releasing a new album in only a few weeks. Magna Carta Holy Grail will arrive on July 4. The album was announced through a Samsung commercial during the game which featured Jay in the studio with superproducers Rick Rubin, Pharrell Williams, Timbaland and Swizz Beatz.

"The album is about, like this duality of how do you navigate through this whole thing, through success, through failures, through all this and remain yourself," he says to Rubin in the clip.

According to reports, Samsung has purchased 1 million copies of Jay-Z's coming album and plans to give them to Samsung Galaxy smartphone users for free - 72 hours ahead of the release.
