Kanye West’s Criminal Record Expunged

    A judge recently ruled for Kanye West‘s criminal record to be cleared, TMZ reports.

    The Life of Pablo rapper sought to have his record expunged after he was charged with battery and attempted grand theft in 2013. The charges came after an altercation with the paparazzi.

    West reached a plea deal in 2014 and fulfilled his sentencing, which included community service and a two-year probation.

    Kanye West has fulfilled his sentencing stemming from a 2013 battery and attempted grand theft case where he got into an altercation with the paparazzi and he is now seeking to have the case removed from his criminal history.

    TMZ reports that West filed paperwork to have his criminal record expunged and that the request is “almost guaranteed” to be approved by a judge.

    West reached a plea deal in 2014 on the charges after an altercation with a paparazzi at Los Angeles International Airport. Since then, he has more than fulfilled his 250 hours of community service by assisting students at L.A. Trade Technical College with his fashion expertise. He has also upheld the two year probation.

    Kanye West has been charged with battery and attempted grand theft, reports TMZ.

    The charges stem from a July 19 altercation this year when West was caught on camera trying to physically take a camera from a photographer who spoke to West as the rapper exited LAX airport.

    After the altercation, the photographer went to the hospital and filed a lawsuit, which the photographer’s lawyer says left him badly injured.

    If convicted of both crimes, which are misdemeanors, Kanye faces up to one year in prison. He will be arraigned on October 10.

    Kanye was originally named a felony suspect for attempted robbery, but those charges were rejected by the Los Angeles County District Attorney.

        he wouldnt say it to his face! he only picks on paparazzi when he got his bodyguards to protect him!

    1. who gives a fuck ? Macklemore is the realest rapper out there . we don’t need none of these clowns . King Macklemore alone will keep this culture alive

      1. If by going against the rap culture, you mean against the fake bullshit one-dimensional rappers talking only about money and bitches.

    2. Gucci Mane = realest rapper ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      – T.I. snitch to the feds
      – Young Jeezy was never bmf
      – 50 Cent snitch and was never in jail but a youthcamp
      – Game was never a banger but lived the life of his brother in his lyrics
      – Nas Escobar never sold drugs
      – Ice Cube never was a gangbanger
      – Dr Dre never was a gangbanger
      – 2pac was a ballerina and never sold drugs after he become famous he was doing some stupid stuff like beating and shooting at people because he though he could get away with it. Without Suge Knight 2pac was just a skinny motherfucker. Oh and i like his music so fuck you.
      – Mobb deep are the biggiest pussies in rap they are short as midgets and keep talking this g shit but never did g shit.

      1. the most pathetic person on this website currently along with “Ricky Rozay”

        at least dentaldamnboy and the others come up with some original material and put a little effort in their dick riding

      1. Original poster. Me neither, but let’s face it: the man was being aggressively stalked by a reporter who wouldn’t take no for an answer. While Kanye should’ve responded better, you can’t blame him for lashing out given how the press treat him.

        I don’t believe celebrities should be allowed to force through legal injunctions to prevent (potentially embarrassing) stories being printed, but I do think they should be allowed basic freedom of not being harassed every time they walk down a street.

    3. Kanye west just mad cause everytime he’s eating Kim out he has to think that Ray J hit that shit first.. and everyone knows it.

      Kanye thinks he’s keeping it gangsta but he broke one of the top rules – Never turn a bitch in to a housewife..

      Fucking loser..

      1. Live your own life and decide what you want for yourself, fuck the “rules” you speak of, it’s bullshit. if that’s what he wants to do then his choice

    4. YE should just counter sue. Say it was self defense as he was being harassed and aggressively stalked. Which, in reality, he was.

      1. They have the right to follow anyone they want as long as it’s not onto private property. When will these retard celebrities realize that their life is free game everytime they step out their house or hotel room?

    5. as Travis answered I am impressed that a student able to get paid $9540 in a few weeks on the computer. this page… http://www.Ucan3.Com

      This faggot has a pink tuxedo. You dont see Gucci walking in a pink tuxedo. Probaly Nas had a after party with Mr. Cee!

      1. Shut the fuck up Yolanda. Stupid bitch, coming to DX selling her broke ass website, and then talking about Gucci and other gay shit. You’re a joke, you stupid bitch.

    6. Random topicRemember Ems worst album Encore. Well, the album shouldnt of sounded that bad. Check out this site. It has an interesting twist on the album. It also tells how to download how the album should of sounded. It will give ya something to listen to until MMLP2 drops. Check it out

    7. Even without a criminal record, he still nothin but a lousy, no good ni66er who belongs into the cotton fields.

    8. Well pull my hair and slap my ass and call me Joanne, this dumb ass now thinks he can attack a man going about his daily business and get away with it. Kanye if your reading this …Being good looking and slightly talented doesn’t mean you’re above the law .

      1. Shut the fuck up you old ass pedophile I bet you the kind of weirdo who hangs around kiddie playgrounds and freaks out there parents
        you are in your 40s you old racist weirdo. Living in your mom’s basement and posting all day on HHDX.

      2. Rule number 1) Never feed the old trolls . Think about it would you want to be like him at his older age hiding behind a keyboard and writing the same kind of posts over and over again .I feel sorry for the old man

      3. Exactly if he is really that old then it’s not normal.His my uncles age and I couldn’t imagine my uncle spending his life on a rap website even if he liked hiphop. He might have mental health issues and this is his way to vent and communicate with the world

    9. Lesson, don’t forget to get those records expunged once the time is done y’all. Real talk!
