Weren;t Superlover Cee and Casanova Rud thought to be Paul C's killers by some?

Noreaga killed some guy when he was still a juvenile. He got a really short sentence.

Robert Bell (robertbell), Monday, 3 October 2005 01:38 (twenty years ago)

Rakim killed 21 guys on "My Melody."

Ad-rock killed a ham sandwich once

Inspector Deck was charged by the system for murdering the rhythm.

Hurting (Hurting), Monday, 3 October 2005 03:04 (twenty years ago)

More seriously, I believe I read someplace, like B-Real's blog or some shit (which I can't find now of course) that B had been pretty heavily involved in gangbanging, and the song "Hand on the Pump" or maybe "How I Could Just Kill a Man" was based on some incident where he shot a guy in self defense, but didn't quite kill him, and ended up doing time on ag assault or similar.

Helpful, eh?

Vanilla Ice killed Robert Van Winkle.

Your father was seduced by the dark side of the Force. He ceased to be Robert Van Winkle and became Vanilla Ice. When that happened, the good man who was your father was destroyed. So what I have told you was true . . . from a certain point of view.

Regarding Paul C + Superlover Cee & Cassanova Rud, they were investigated after his murder but nothing ever came of it.

It's generally thought that Paul C's wife had him killed so she could run away with his brother. If i remember right they both disappeared.

If you do a google you can probably turn up that Paul C article where the writer talks to Superlover Cee & Casanova Rud in detail about the murder.

"Do the james" is still one of the heaviest rap records ever. The way Paul C actually managed to improve the "impeach the president" drumbreak..Damn.

Pharrell “knows killers in the street.”

Jay Smooth (jsmooth995), Monday, 3 October 2005 22:19 (twenty years ago)

Obviously O-Dub.

That was Big Lurch.

Joseph McCombs (Joseph McCombs), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 14:41 (twenty years ago)

I find it hard to believe Schoolly D ever killed anybody. Steady B. however, is a Philly rapper serving a life sentence for murdering a police officer during a botched robbery.

I think Ghostface Killa owned up to a murder in an interview in The Source - but who knows, could all be street cred junk talk.

Edward III (edward iii), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 16:45 (twenty years ago)

also, Steady B's partner in crime, Cool C, i think is also serving life for being involved in the same heist.

M@tt He1geson (Matt Helgeson), Tuesday, 4 October 2005 16:52 (twenty years ago)

cool c has been sentanced to the death penalty

J-Dee from Ice Cube's Lench Mob crew did time for murder (and thus did not appear on their second album)

I read on some blog somewhere that Greil Marcus put a bullet in the head of some joker who suggested that Harry Smith did a poor job assembling the Anthology of American Folk Music.

Through first hand hood experiences I can tell you that tattoo tears mean "puttin in work" plain and simple i.e. Shooting, stabing, killing, servin, stealin. Baby got his after he was already famous so who would jeoperdize there money by doing that

If this hadn't revived I never would have read that great Dave Tompkins piece on Paul C. So thanks, jefrow dollars and Jay Smooth.

In all serious here, I remember (or maybe it was a joke, or a dream) reading an article about an aspiring yet unsuccessful rapper who murdered and ATE his girlfriend to get a record deal by giving himself a more gangsteresque and certainly violent persona. Does anyone remember hearing about this?

Thomas Mehlt (Tokyo Ghost Stories), Thursday, 11 January 2007 20:46 (nineteen years ago)

BIG LURCH. BIG LURCH ATE HIS GF.

Edward III (edward iii), Thursday, 11 January 2007 20:59 (nineteen years ago)

Didn't X-Raided literally phone in the lyrics on one of his albums after doing time on a murder conviction?
What about C-Murder? And Shyne?

With Shyne it was just attempted murder, right?

Isn't PCP what made Houston gouge his eye out?

musically (musically), Friday, 12 January 2007 05:24 (nineteen years ago)

Houston, a 21-year-old rising R & B star said to have been battling PCP use and mental problems, went to his hotel room while on tour in London in late January, ostensibly to read the Bible, and gouged out one of his eyes.

Must have been reading Matthew 5:29.

Marmot (marmotwolof), Friday, 12 January 2007 05:30 (nineteen years ago)

ok lol at that

The Android Cat (Dan Perry), Friday, 12 January 2007 15:12 (nineteen years ago)

Well. PCP will do that to you. . .
