President Biden's proving he has rappers on speed dial just like Donald Trump does -- recruiting a pair of hip hop legends to help rally his down south supporters!!!

TMZ Hip Hop got this video of Fat Joe and E-40 performing onstage Friday for the prez and First Lady Jill Biden's post-debate rally in Raleigh, NC.

Biden displayed a jolt of energy he didn't have during last night's debate, and it's safe to say, the audience was feeling it.

A biker outlaw legend is weighing in on the new motorcycle club action-drama "The Bikeriders" ... saying people will flock to the life after seeing the flick, but they'd better earn their stripes the right way.

We talked with George Christie -- a former Hells Angels president for the Ventura chapter of the infamous motorcycle club -- and he knows a lot of young men and women will want to join big-name clubs after watching the feature film ... especially because America's obsessed with outlaw culture.

But, if they don't join a club, and just try to wear a Hell's Angels patch ... George says they could encounter big problems -- ranging from a "good ass-chewing to a good ass-kicking."

Polo G's family drama is spilling into the court system -- his mother Stacia Mac just filed for a domestic violence restraining order against her own daughter.

In court docs, obtained by TMZ Hip Hop, Stacia points to April 1 -- the day after Easter 2024 -- as the start of the trouble ... when she and her daughter Leilani almost took each other's heads off.

According to the filing, Stacia claims an intoxicated Leilani entered her home without her knowledge, and began attacking her inside her bedroom ... before running around the house destroying as much property as she could.

"Saturday Night Live" star Darrell Hammond isn't laughing about Thursday's presidential debate ... and is instead issuing a very stern warning regarding the country's future.

Darrell famously used to impersonate Donald Trump, Al Gore and Bill Clinton on 'SNL' ... but he told us he saw nothing funny about Thursday night's presidential face-off, calling the whole event sad and potentially dangerous.

This might sound odd coming from Darrell, who lampooned Trump for years, but he says fans should avoid mocking Trump's mannerisms ... because it makes him seem less dangerous.

These days, he thinks voters should take very seriously Trump's prior comments about wanting to become a dictator.

Legendary basketball commentator Dick Vitale says he's dealing with another bout of cancer ... announcing on Friday that some tests he underwent this week revealed a malignant mass on his neck.

Here's the first look at Bronny James in Purple and Gold -- LeBron's son will wear No. 9 for the Lakers ... as well as "Jr." on his nameplate.

L.A. just released visuals of its newest rookie on Friday ... showing the 19-year-old guard proudly donning the threads.

The digit is interesting -- Bronny rocked No. 6 with the USC Trojans last season, but that is retired leaguewide in honor of NBA legend Bill Russell.

6:04 PM PT -- We obtained additional footage of the incident between Megan Thee Stallion's security and reality star Jonathan Wright ... it appears JW got a lick off to her security guard's face before the bruhaha was broken up.

It's still unclear what exactly caused the physical exchange but like we reported earlier, everything appears to have straightened itself out ... after throwing a couple back at the bar!!!

President Biden's not sweating last night's debate debacle, despite calls for him to step aside ... he's showing no signs of dropping his reelection bid, and is as fired up as ever.

POTUS is rallying supporters at a campaign stop in Raleigh, NC right now ... and striking a completely different tone than he did last night when he shared the stage with Donald Trump.

Biden admits he doesn't debate, walk or speak as well as he used to, but he says he knows how to get stuff done as president.

New fallout for Diddy from the Cassie video and sexual assault allegations -- the Miami Beach Commission is revoking "Sean Diddy Combs Day."

Diddy posted up with then-Miami Beach Mayor Philip Levine during the 2016 Revolt Music Conference when he originally received the proclamation ... which the city's Commissioners voted to yank this week.

In fact, Diddy received the proclamation in October 2016 ... just 7 months after he was caught on surveillance video assaulting ex-GF inside an L.A. hotel. Of course, the general public -- and certainly not the City of Miami Beach -- knew that had happened until the video came out this year.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. says if Joe Biden withdraws from the presidential race and another Democrat steps in, he's prepared to make the same offer he gave Biden ... if that candidate has a better chance of beating Trump, he'll withdraw from the race.

Kennedy appeared Friday on "TMZ Live" and restated his challenge ... if someone like Governor Gavin Newsom, Senator Raphael Warnock, Governor Gretchen Whitmer or Governor Wes Moore snag the nom, he wants an independent poll taken in October. Whoever polls better against Trump will cross the finish line, and the other will withdraw.

Biden never responded to RFK's offer ... which he said wasn't surprising. A different candidate might, however, take him up on the offer to create unity.
