Chris Brown is in trouble....again!

Why am I not surprised? This isn't the first time Chris Brown has had a run-in with the law but this time, he could end up behind bars. Last week, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge revoked the R&B singer's probation, but let him go for now, after the singer traveled without permission to sing at a concert and for not completing his hours of community service, from 2009, on time. The judge ordered Brown not to be taken into custody but expects to see him back in court for a hearing on March 20th.

It all started when the singer performed at a San Jose nightclub recently, even though he wasn't allowed to leave the Los Angeles area. While performing his hit "Loyal" on stage, a shooting occurred within the crowd, where five people were injured but there was no indication that Brown was involved in the incident. Despite all of that, the judge still wants probation officials to look into the shooting and whether or not the artist had anything to do with it.

Chris Brown is known for his bad behavior and the multiple encounters he's had with the law. In October of 2013, the singer punched a man outside of a hotel in Washington,D.C. and officials charged him with misdemeanor assault. And who can forget that infamous attack on his then-girlfriend pop singer Rihanna back in 2009. The songstress was beaten by him in his car while on their way to the Grammy Awards; they ended up canceling their appearance due to the violent attack.

Brown is currently getting ready for his North American Tour where he will be joined by singer Trey Songz and rapper Tyga. The "Between The Sheets" tour kicks off on January 28 in Virginia.

Nicki Minaj: Hip-Hop's Diva

Some might say she's crazy, some might say she's cool; but there's one thing we do know for sure: Nicki Minaj is definitely one of a kind! In a recent interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Nicki talks about her latest album "The Pinkprint" and opens up about her personal life; a side we've never seen from her before.

In the first part of the interview, the rapper talks about the exhausting process she had to go through in order for her 15-minute Pinkprint movie to get released on time. She looks over retouching and color correction when it isn't done properly. She tells the magazine: "I would save so much time if I didn't care about things like that. But I do." Not only is Minaj a perfectionist, she is also a vulnerable woman. That being said, she wanted to give her fans a glimpse into her private life.

The end of her 11-year relationship with Safaree Samuels is one of the many events in her life that inspired her songwriting for the new album. She says: "I had to learn to do something as simple as sleep alone. I struggled with 'Do I express these feelings?'". She decided she wasn't going to hide anymore as she reveals another painful moment in her life; a pregnancy that ended in abortion.

While attending a performing arts high school, Nicki was dating a much older man. When she found out she was pregnant, her whole world was turned upside down. "I thought I was going to die", she says. The abortion is something that has haunted her all her life and for her, not having the baby was the right decision to make at the time. She just wasn't ready for it.

Pick up the latest copy of Rolling Stone magazine for the full interview. The Pinkprint is now available on iTunes.
