Snoop Dogg‘s Super Bowl performance has been used as key evidence in Young Thug‘s RICO trial.Young Thug is currently on trial for allegedly conspiring to violate Georgia’s Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organisations (RICO) Act, along with seven further drug- and gang- related felonies.His case has been significantly notable for the use of his rap lyrics to accuse him of his YSL gang affiliation in trial. Using lyrics in criminal trials has been broadly criticised “as a convenient way to inject racial bias and confusion into the criminal justice process.”In the latest developments of Thugger’s trial, witness and YSL co-founder Trontavious “Tick” Stephens has been testifying on behalf of the prosecution and was cross-examined by Young Thug’s attorney, Brian Steel.Steel used Snoop Dogg’s Super Bowl performance to demonstrate that Young Thug is solely an entertainer, not a gang member.

dawg house.The country singer-songwriter was arrested at a Nashville bar Monday night and charged with disorderly conduct, assaulting an officer and resisting arrest.Young stopped off at the Tin Roof bar in midtown Nashville at the same time agents from the Tennessee Alcoholic Beverage Commission were checking IDs and licenses, according to TMZ.Young, 38, allegedly started peppering the agents with questions after they checked his ID — and things got out of control from there.Officials say he recorded them and then followed them to an adjacent bar called the Dawg House, where TABC officials were conducting a routine compliance check, according to the report.When Young was at the Dawg House, he allegedly started to talk to people at the bar and to the bartender while the TABC agents went into the back of the joint to check ABC (Restricted Brewery License) cards.The agents claim that they were walking toward the door when Young blocked their exit and put his hands on one of the agents to stop them from leaving — and then he allegedly struck the agent on the shoulder.According to the officials, they pushed Young away, which caused some bar patrons to get between Young and the TABC agents — causing a lot of yelling, screaming and commotion.Young then followed the agents out of the Dawg House, according to TMZ, and the situation became “hostile.”Officials said Young’s eyes were “bloodshot and watery” and that his speech was slurred.He was arrested and booked on misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and assault on an officer.Young, who posted $2,500 bond, was released from custody Tuesday morning.He is scheduled to appear in court on Feb.

Carlos Aguilar The image of Frida Kahlo, the prominent Mexican painter of the early 20 century, is one of the most replicated and commercialized of any artist in the history of the world. From T-shirts to houseware, merchandise of all sorts emblazoned with her face has turned Kahlo into a kitschy, mainstream, decontextualized emblem for Mexican identity.

Addie Morfoot Contributor Carla Gutierrez is known in the documentary community for her work as a film editor. She was behind Oscar nominated docs “RBG” and “La Corona” as well as Emmy winner “Julia.” But in 2022, after two decades of editing, Gutierrez decided to direct “Frida,” a docu about iconic Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, which has its world premiere at Sundance Film Festival this week. “A few months before we started working on ‘Frida,’ I would say, ‘I’m really content with editing.’ I had no thoughts of directing, but her story really pulled me in and I realized I have to direct this (film).

There’s an odd tension and dichotomy coursing throughout the new documentary, “Frida,” an intimacy meets a standard-issue form: a lyrical, magical quality next to something just maybe too safely chronological for its own good. Carla Gutierrez’s new documentary, her directorial debut, is well-meaning and has a clear devotion and affection for her subject, the legendary Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, but as a primarily told cradle-to-grave story, it is doggedly linear and therefore often feels a little familiar.
