Episode 40

Young Dolph investigation, is Hip-Hop cursed, David Chappelle’s SNL monologue and Only Fans model wants bail | Streets & Scholars (EP40)

In this episode 40 of Streets and Scholars with Frank "FG" Thornton and Alex Alonso they discuss: 

1. Memphis police investigating Young Dolph's murder arrested a third suspect, Hernandez Govan, 43, has been indicted on charges of first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit first-degree murder. Shelby County District Attorney Steve Mulroy believes that Govan is the one who solicited the murder, leading Justin "Straight Drop" Johnson and Cornelius Smith to shoot the Memphis rapper in broad daylight at Makeda’s Homemade Butter Cookies on November 17, 2021.

2. Is Hip-Hop cursed, not just rappers getting murder, but many are dying from illness and drug use. And has rap artists taken the genre to a place that it cannot return. Most recently rappers, Takeoff from the Migos and PnBRock where shot and killed.  

3. Dave Chappelle's monologue on Saturday Night Live (SNL) has caused some from the Jewish the community to claim that he made anti-semitic jokes, but listen to Alex & F.G.'s take on Chappelle's monologue.  Chappeelle's monologue focused on the recent actions of Kyrie Irving and Ye, formerly known as Kanye West.  

4. Courtney Clenney, the Only Fans model who was recently charged with 2nd degree murder of Christian Obumseli, is trying to bail out of jail. The state of Florida claims that she earned over $3 million on her Only Fans account and that she is a flight risk. Klenney is alleging that she killed her boyfriend because she was being abused.
