Rappers, basketball players, diamonds, guns and private eyes…Oh my!
This story sounds like something out of a new-aged Agatha Christie novel or a hip hop version of the game Clue.
On Oct. 17, rapper Fabolous was shot in the thigh in the parking lot of Diddy’s New York restaraunt, Justin’s. But while he was in stable condition in the hospitial he was also technically under arrest for weapons possession.
Now information has surfaced that Boston Celtics basketball player Sebastian Telfair may be connected.
According to police reports, Telfair’s $50,000 chain (probably filled with blood diamonds:) was snatched from his neck. After the robbery he supposedly made a cell phone call when he saw Fabolous had finished his food, thinking his entourage must have had something to do with the robbery.
Now Fabolous has hired a private investigator to iron out all the details and find his shooter.
It was the rapper with the revolver in the billiard room!

Is Life imitating so-called Art or so-called Art imitating Life???
We have allowed Afrikan american men in sports and the so-called “rap game” a free pass to act a damn fool with “bling-bling” Blood Diamonds and Platinum with out a word said about it.
They “hunt” and “prey” upon each other as if their life is made to display all of the ill conceived notions about our Afrikan american men.
Where is Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan, and all the other men of so-called “good” repute and their tending to this problem amoung the sports and “rap-game” section of our community? Where is the de-programming of the script ‘ “The Making of a Negro”?
