the joke is that they actually robbed people.
Once again people, while most of them are previous felons, these charges don't really apply to them. The rappers had little to do with what was going on. The WTC was a huge organization, and the rappers did little outside of show up and rap, then leave.

EDIT: Acid has the link 2 posts above, I watch it at least once a week.

ODB regrets that he couldn't be here today, but he sends his regards.

Not surprised. Everyone knew they were basically running Shaolin and shit. Most of their claims are probably true, Rae was probably their cook.
 
I seem to remember hearing a story where Raekwon had a planned to hide a gun by wearing a fake cast on his arm to assassinate Notorious BIG at the Source Awards in 1994.

I may be getting my stories crossed.

How can you have a felony possession of body armour?

Wouldnt that imply the body armour was illegal? Or just that he obtained it illegally?

If its the former I had no idea that would be illegal.

I was surprised about that too, but according to a quick google search, it seems possession of body armor is only illegal for someone with a felony conviction. So I'm fine with that. I know the second amendment could probably make for some screwy laws, but being able to own a gun and not body armor would be all kinds of ridiculous.

Most of the WTC should be pissed the fuck off that they never saw a dime of this money. RZA really made bank and left the rest high and dry. Then again, like 50 said, maybe if they weren't all too busy being dust heads.

I wonder if Ghostface's FBI wrap sheet includes charges of throwing distinguished black fellows off airplanes and illegally injecting gorillas with the strength of 80 midgets

ahaha

Best fighting game too.

my man

I've always wanted to read the Tao of Wu, bet there's a copy for cheap at the used book store.

I really loved it, the manual really was about the clan, Tao was about the philosophy behind it more and where they went/affects it had on bob digi. he can pretty much point to the moments when they started falling apart & he had to do his own thing too.

Likely means military grade rather than something like a vest, like that worn by the army or SWAT, which requires special permits to own IIRC. Police don't like crooks who can shrug off a hail of bullets because AP rounds are not standard issue to non-SWAT.

AP rounds are not....too early in the morning, I'll explain later.

You can legally buy "military grade" body armour in most state.

This is GAF:

Criminal is "is heavily involved in the sale of drugs, illegal guns, weapons possession, murder, carjacking and other types of violent crime"

TIGER STYLE

sounds like these fine gentlemen were cross-training in kicking ass

Bring the motherfucking ruckus.

Don't mess with the gods.

90s rap can't be beat


Pedophilia:

ALL pedos should be castrated.

Pedos are sickos. They need help. Also gtfo.

Seriously, pedos should be jailed and castrated.

Just throw bricks. Lots of them.

Those who act on it should be jailed and castrated.



Loving the consistency that GAF apply equally to all forms of serious crime!

Notice the price tags on his clothes. You just know that somebody simply thought "man, go buy ODB some new clothes." before the interview.

Never thought I'd read ass aroma detailed so well and almost lyrical. Ill!

And the price tags on the clothes must be the new hip thing. Ghetto fabulous OG trill mother bastard!

also, Acid: RZA speaks on ODB's final days, shit's heartbreaking man.

I can't wait till RZA releases his kung fu movie...the people involved in that are so damn good. Blast of the Old School, what Kill Bill wanted to be but couldn't be!

oh god, i gotta keep an eye on when this one drops, so hyped.

i honestly don't know what's dumber about your post: the old GAF hivemind meme, or that you can't distinguish between these crimes.

I agree with the sentiment. A lot of people here seem to be glorifying murder and violence in this case. But pedophilia is a bad example to use.

Ebook versions by chance? I'm sort of half joking. Wow at the pages of info. I also like this 90s rap love right now.

Thought Emoji Movie was good. Take that as you will.
Get out of here with that crap, it's a WTC thread what do you expect? No forgiving pedos, even if they rap.



I flow like the blood on a murder scene, like a syringe

Yes, how dare I compare the heinous crime of child abuse with the soft crime of murder?

What was I thinking?

i honestly don't know.
to tow this ridiculous line of anti-logic along, let's suspend such notions you should've been aware of before posting (i.e., do you think it's possibly hip-hop as a genre often has a connotation of glorifying murder and theft?), and go with just murder: i my hypothetical, it might've been self-defense. can you paint me one where child molestation is done for that reason?

Anti Logic?

So do you believe that it is a less serious crime to murder someone than to abuse a child?

Even if you believe they are both on a par, as they both ultimately ruin lives, how can you be so hypocritical as to endorse the glorification of one over the other?

And... "hypothetical murder"? Yeah, I bet the FBI keep tons of files on hypothetical murders. Besides, as we've already learnt from this thread:

There's only one ODB for every 50 rappers who brag it without having lived it.
