Finesse2tymes has faced many legal battles over the years, and it appears he has found himself in trouble once again. According to The Neighborhood Talk, the Memphis rapper was recently arrested in Dallas, Texas, on multiple drug-related charges. These reportedly include possession of marijuana, possession of controlled substances, tampering with evidence, and bringing prohibited items into a correctional facility.

As of now, no bond has been set, so it remains uncertain when Finesse2tymes might be released. His team has not made any public statements about the situation. His mother, Pluria Alexander, however, decided to speak out. In a Facebook post shared earlier today, she reflected on their strained relationship while addressing his latest arrest.

“Until you do right by me everything you think about gone fail," she began. "All these other people don’t care nothing about you, why you can’t see that!… As a mother, this pain is different. It breaks me to see my son losing himself — mentally unstable, going through breakdowns, on drugs, in and out of jail, and disrespecting me and everyone who tries to help him."

"I love him with everything in me, but it hurts so bad watching him self-destruct," she continued. "I know that’s not the real him… That’s the pain, the trauma, and the demons he’s fighting. I pray for him every day, even when I feel like I can’t take it anymore. I just want my son back — the one with a good heart and a bright future. People don’t understand what it’s like to love somebody who’s hurting themselves and pushing you away at the same time. It’s a constant heartbreak. But no matter what, I’ll always be his mother, and I’ll always love him. Right Or wrong. This S**t HURT."

This latest incident comes nearly a month after Finesse2tymes was arrested in Texas alongside the mother of his child, FNG Shugga. That previous arrest involved allegations related to gun and drug possession.

Red Hot Chili Peppers Land Over $300 Million From Catalog Sale

The Red Hot Chili Peppers have reportedly sold their recorded music catalog to Warner Music Group in a massive deal valued at more than $300 million.

The agreement arrives five years after the legendary rock band sold their publishing rights in a separate deal worth around $150 million. According to reports from The Hollywood Reporter and Billboard, the band’s recorded catalog, which includes 13 studio albums and nine releases distributed through Warner Music Group, was officially acquired on Friday for more than double the amount of the earlier publishing sale.

The acquisition is said to be part of a much larger partnership between Warner Music Group and Bain Capital. Together, the companies have reportedly spent around $650 million acquiring music and publishing assets, with the Red Hot Chili Peppers catalog making up nearly half of that total. Details regarding the remaining acquisitions have not yet been disclosed.

Back in May 2021, the Red Hot Chili Peppers sold their publishing rights to Hipgnosis Songs Fund for approximately $150 million. However, according to The Hollywood Reporter, those rights could soon change hands again as Hipgnosis, now operating under the name Recognition Music Group, is currently being acquired by Sony Music as part of another multi billion dollar transaction.

The band’s recorded catalog had reportedly been available on the market since last year with an asking price close to $350 million. Warner Music Group was widely viewed as the most natural buyer considering the label has worked with the band since the release of 1991’s Blood Sugar Sex Magik. Before joining Warner, the group’s first four albums were released through EMI.

Financially, the catalog remains extremely valuable, reportedly generating around $26 million in annual revenue. Ownership of the recordings had remained with the band prior to this latest agreement.

The Red Hot Chili Peppers most recently released Unlimited Love and its companion album Return of the Dream Canteen in 2022. At the time of reporting, neither the band nor Warner Music Group had publicly commented on the catalog acquisition.
