Florida Rapper Shares Video Of Her Being Extorted By The Mexican Cartel
I love Kamillion and glad she is safe. If you’re not familiar with her, she is a rapper and actress from Jacksonville. She stars in the hit television show Rap Sh*t on HBO and has songs loved by many Floridians. Yesterday she uploaded a video where she claims she was extorted by the Mexican police. She also claims those police have ties to the Mexican cartel. Below is the message and video she uploaded to instagram:
“This is footage of me and my crew in Mexico . The cartel pulled us over saw money in our bags and tried to collect money or they said they were taking us away . They took 1500 from the stylist and asked where’s the rest . I hid mine but they kept asking for more . Scary stuff. Seeing the tragedies unfold in the media when I came back of people being killed I feel so blessed. I’m never goin to Mexico again . Literally my worst trip ever . Police Cartel is different shi crazy. I was told They are associated with the cartel and kidnap tourist and extort money”

A Salute to the Women Performers in the Rock Hall
Today (March 8) is International Women’s Day. How should we celebrate? By honoring the influential women that have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
…Oh, and to serve up the reminder that women accounting for just over eight percent of Rock Hall inductees is simply inexcusable. (For a further breakdown of this, check out Evelyn McDonnell’s exceptional piece “The Manhandling of Rock ‘N’ Roll History.”)
John Sykes, the Rock Hall’s new chairman after Rolling Stone/Rock Hall founder Jann Wenner stepped down as of January 1, 2020, said in countless interviews how the Rock Hall needs to evolve and diversify. It seems as though he’s keeping his word. More women are being nominated and more women are being inducted. Tina Turner, Carole King and The Go-Go’s were inducted as part of the 2021 class. Meanwhile, Annie Lennox, Dolly Parton, Pat Benatar and Carly Simon are members of the 2022 induction class. Hopefully, fans will see even more women make the cut in future classes.
Until then, scroll through the gallery. It features the remarkable women who have defied the odds to be recognized by the Rock Hall.
