Jay-Z and Team Roc File New Lawsuit Against Mississippi’s Parchman Prison

Back in March, Yo Gotti and Roc Nation’s Team Roc filed a lawsuit against Mississippi’s Department of Corrections regarding the alleged inhuman conditions of the Parchman Prison.

“Inmates at Parchman have been forced to live in deadly environments that lack clean water, adequate food, electricity, heat, access to healthcare and clothing, among many other basic human necessities,” according to a press release by Team Roc. “While visitors are restricted from accessing the prison and visiting loved ones inside, the recent classification of COVID-19 as a pandemic and the rising death toll are cause for alarm in a penitentiary already low on resources.”

Now heading to June, Team Roc has filed a third lawsuit, going after Centene Corporation, the company responsible for the healthcare conditions at the prison.

The lawsuit continues to fight for the living conditions of inmates at Parchman Prison. Back in January, Team Roc leaked footage of the horrible conditions of the prison taken by inmates with contraband phones, noting that inmates were not receiving medical attention.

According to attorney Alex Shapiro, who is representing the Parchman inmates, 40 inmates have died in the past few months. “Over 40 inmates dying in the last few months at Mississippi DOC alone is neither outstanding nor innovative,” Shapiro told TMZ. “And it’s definitely nothing to be proud of.”

Centene has responded to the allegations via spokeswoman Marcela Hawn, stating, “Centurion and its board of directors are proud of the company’s history of providing outstanding and innovative health-care solutions to this vulnerable population. We look forward to sharing more about our role in the delivery of healthcare to these individuals during legal proceedings.”

Saweetie took to social media Tuesday morning that her ex-boyfriend Quavo reached out to her via direct messages, following his mention of her in his latest diss track aimed at Chris Brown, titled “Over Hoes & B-tches.”

In the song, Quavo raps, “I can take a model chick and make a Saweetie, n-gga,” which Saweetie didn’t take lightly. She shared a screenshot from January 2024, showing Quavo’s message on Instagram, which she hadn’t opened. The preview read, “Damn. We used to mean af to each…” Saweetie’s caption for the screenshot humorously suggested she hopes the model Quavo compares to her.



This exchange coincided with Saweetie attending a USC game with Chris Brown.



The history between Saweetie and Quavo dates back to their relationship from 2018 to 2021, which ended amid allegations of infidelity on Quavo’s part. Chris Brown didn’t hesitate to leverage their past relationship in his own diss track, “Weakest Link,” claiming to have been involved with Saweetie while she was still with Quavo.

“You fucked my ex-ho, that’s cool, I don’t give no fuck, lil n-gga/ ‘Cause I fucked yo’ ex when you were still with her, bitch, I’m up, lil n-gga,” he rapped.

Quavo previously dated Brown’s ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran, who filed for a restraining order against Brown after their breakup in 2017.
