Don't Tell Fabolous How Much Money You Have
If you are a celebrity or famous athlete you probably have been to a party also attended by Fabolous or one of the members of his "Street Family." Likely they got to shooting the hit with you and asked if you had bought any new cars or jewelery recently and basically had this same conversation repeatedly throughout the evening. If one subject sounded particularly promising, they might ask if they were going on a road trip soon or filming on location somewhere.
Now, if you were to walk up to Fabolous right now he would deny he's connected to a string of robberies on high profile sports stars, which culminated in the knife murder of his friend in a nightclub in New York.
Investigators have implicated several members of the star's Street Family in the robbery of former football
The gang responsible for the thefts is believed to have about 20 members, all are from Brooklyn, the area the rapper grew up, and are former drug dealers.
New York police claim that Shamel McKinney, Fabolous’ friend was trying to rob a man in a nightclub last month when he was stabbed to death.
However 30-year-old Fabolous, real name John Jackson, has refuted claims he is involved with criminals.
He tells AllHipHop.com, "I would like my fans and supporters worldwide to know how disappointed I am in some of the media for the misrepresentation and abuse of my name. "I do not want the young people who listen to my music
Notice that he doesn't actually deny it. He just says he doesn't want his fans to believe it. Has he seen Charlize Theron lately?
Get your own fuckin money you scumbag hoodlums...lazy good for nothing piece of trash.
ReplyDeleteThis shit pisses me off.
This is almost laughable. I've worked in music video (including Fab-u-less) and all of these guys got into the rap game believing the crap they saw in the music videos was real. The smart one's quickly realize that all of those cars and bling - even when rented -cost money, money they may have earned, but the record company is not turning over. Unfortunately the less talented ones (which are the majority) quickly incorporate any "previous employment experience" into their new careers. The only thing that surprises me is that they think they will get away with it. One rapper's arrest gets way more publicity and means the cops can slack on serious street criminals that impact you and I. Who cares if it costs tax payers millions more? Let's hope Fabulous survives this. Street Justice is way quicker and they rarely have appeals.
ReplyDeleteI love how a rapper, doesnt want his audience to believe things about him that discredit his character. Which pretty much de-legitimizes all of his music, then, doesnt it? I thought rap music's success practically hinged on the performers being of or presenting an image of poor character, and people believing it.
