Young rapper drama; Guns n’ Roses announce show dates; Jack White to release solo album; Garbage is back

Ohio-native, 21-year old rapper, Machine Gun Kelly got a little too rowdy after a performance in Florida yesterday.

When it comes to musicians, we all expect a little bad behavior. The new generation of young rappers have picked up on the habit of causing trouble, however, in the less than shocking ways of their predecessors.

Ohio-native, 21-year old rapper, Machine Gun Kelly got a little too rowdy after a performance in Florida yesterday. According to the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office, Machine Gun Kelly, whose real name is Richard Baker, was arrested a little after 4:00 a.m. on Sunday, Jan. 29.

His bond was only $100, and he was released after a few hours in lock up.

Apparently the young rapper was busted for the misdemeanor of disorderly conduct, for which he had some not so nice tweets related to the incident. We’re going to let you find those little nuggets of joy on your own time.

By the way, this isn’t the first time the barely-old-enough-to-drink rapper has been arrested. He was busted for a flashmob that happened back in August 2011 at Cleveland’s South Park Mall.

Rapper legal drama doesn’t end there. Ironically enough, rapper Cory Gunz was arrested for – wait for it – carrying a loaded gun.

The 24-year old was placed in cuffs in the Bronx on Saturday, Jan. 28 for carrying a loaded firearm.

It all happened around 2:00 p.m.

The gun was found in his backpack, but MTV News reports that the whole thing may have been illegal.

MTV News interviewed the rappers father, Peter Gunz, who says that the arrest was made after Police illegally searched his bag.

Peter Gunz told MTV News, “"I spoke to the arresting officer, and so far, what I’m hearing from him is that they got a phone call at the station saying they should ‘look out’…According to [the officer], they didn’t know he was Cory Gunz. They just saw a bunch of kids following him around."

For now, Cory Gunz will have to stick it out in Central Booking in the Bronx. The rapper has no prior criminal record, but New York law says that a prison sentence of three and a half years for illegal possession of a loaded weapon.

From the world of real guns to the metaphorical ones, rock icons Guns and Roses announced a couple concert dates that will happen before the band’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

None of the show dates will end up here in Louisiana.

All of the February show dates are on the east coast. With no love given to the southern states, let’s move on to a man who was in the Crescent City not too long ago.

Jack White, one of the headlining names at the Voodoo Experience back in October, is set to release his debut solo album, “Blunderbuss.” It’s scheduled to hit stores on April 23, 2012.

White produced the album and recorded it at the Third Man studio in Nashville.

“[‘Blunderbuss’ is] an album I couldn’t have released until now,” White said in a press release. “I’ve put off making records under my own name for a long time but these songs feel like they could only be presented under my name. These songs were written from scratch, had nothing to do with anyone or anything else but my own expression, my own colors on my own canvas."

In other back-to-the-recording-studio news, a band that was considered all but gone announces that it will in fact put out another album.

Garbage, the alternative rock band best known for its late 90s hits, is returning to the studio to complete its fifth album. This after a five year hiatus that had many thinking that Garbage had taken the band to the trash.

According to the Wisconsin State Journal (yes, we look everywhere for all these music gems) the all but broken-up band will record some new tracks at a studio in Los Angeles sometime this week.

Garbage lead singer Shirley Manson had originally planned to put out a solo album, but she was cast in the FOX show “Terminator: The Sarah Connon Chronicles.”
