In other Nicki news, here's an update on the stabbing incident that led to her road managers death.  According to AllHipHop, police have a suspect in custody.  Pierce Boykin is believed to be responsible for the attack of two member's of Minaj's tour crew outside the Che Bar & Grill in Philadelphia.

Philly's WPVI TV is reporting the 31-year old has been charged with attempted murder, aggravated assault, terroristic threats, and simple assault.  As mentioned, Nicki's tour manager 29-year-old De’Von "Day Day" Pickett was killed during the incident, and Boykin could also be looking at murder charges being tacked on at a later date.  27-year old Eric Parker was seriously injured and has been hospitalized since last weeks attack, but thankfully he is expected to make a full recovery.

Authorities believe the conflict began over a woman at the bar, from a verbal confrontation to a physical altercation that spilled outside and ended in the two men being stabbed multiple times with a knife.

Philadelphia Police Captain James Clark told reporters, “Both of the parties both knew a female who worked at the bar, and the arguments centered around her.  The investigation is still ongoing and could result in further arrests or charges.

Finally, it’s been almost a year since Keyshia Cole announced she and her NBA husband Daniel Gibson were separating.  The two tied the knot in 2011, but three years later they were getting ready to walk away.  BET reports a lot has happened since then and with the premiere of the season of her reality show, the two may be getting back together.

Last year in March, Cole announced she and her husband decided to call it quits. The announcement came months after speculation that Gibson had been cheating on her. Well hopefully they can work it out.  After all the two have a four-year-old son together and as with any couple with children, their going to try and make it work.  See the video below, where Keyshia sits down with Hip Hollywood to discuss the status of her love life.
