Spade Cooley, Western Swing star:

In 1961, his wife Ella Mae, age 37, expressed her wish to be divorced, and a drunken Cooley responded by beating her and stomping on her body until she died. Cooley was convicted of first-degree murder by a Kern County jury, and he was sentenced to life in prison.

gucci killed a dude iirc

love this

Wouldn't it be kind of funny if like one of the guys from De La Soul or P.M. Dawn had capped someone? It would totally be shocking.

i was talking to this dude who runs a club on the german/swiss border, who gets a lot of varied acts coming through. one time they had de la soul playing there, and he said they were total pricks. they got there, were like "where are our fucking drugs!" and proceeded to mope around in the dressing room till a suitable amount of cocaine was sourced. after the show, which was apparently all of 15 minutes long, they retired to the bar where they proceeded to be such complete assholes that one of the bartenders was finally like "yeah, i'll get you your drink if you'll start acting like a decent human being" or something, whereupon one de la dude jumped over the bar, grabbed a bottle, smashed it and started attacking the staff with it. clubowner dude jumps in and gets a scar across his face for the trouble. i saw it (it's what what prompted the discussion) and it was a big ass scary fuckin scar, right across dudes face, just barely missing the eyeball.

i can't really 100% confirm the story, but i hung with this dude for several days and he seemed like a believable guy. and it *was* first hand, not "this happened to my bro's best friend" or whatever.

flip side, de la played my college back in 88 and showed up at my friends house party afterwards, and apparently they were all totally nice guys. i guess 10-15 years of snorting drugs while everyone kisses your ass no matter what you do can change ya.

Oh fuck off

cold bloooooooodeed

Oh fuck off

don't make me jump over the bar and cut yo face with a broken bottle

ps. i'm not even sure why you're telling me to fuck off.

Other rappers have talked about De La being a lot more thugged out than their image would indicate.

Yeah, Pres, and they address that on De La Soul Is Dead, but Mesiahwannabe's story, or rather the story the club owner on the German/Swiss border told him, sounds fucking ridiculous.

no wai my cousin said

Sure, I just mean that recent cocaine-damaged De Le assholism isn't completely out of character as per rep. I dunno if it's necessarily worse than, say, Big Pun smashing Rocafella dudes over the head with champagne bottles and Fat Joe trying to smooth things over. Intoxicated demons, etc.

i dunno, someone mentioned thinking it would be funny to hear de la soul thug stories, and once i met a guy with a huge scar on his face he said he got from plug one-of-the-members in a bar fight. what's ridiculous exactly? for the record, i hung with this guy for like 5 days once when i was on vacation, he only got started on the stories a few days in when we discovered we worked in the same industry, and all his other stories were just realistic-detail laden stories about semi-obscure indie bands he liked coming through his club, and, like, liquor zoning laws in europe and their effect on club going demographics. it's possible the story was bullshit, but i thought he was believable. i've certainly heard the "band shows up, demands drug X, won't play till they get it" story before from friends who've worked in clubs.

goddamnit, i hate it when i kill a thread by being all reasonable, explaining myself, etc. umm, jay-z totally killed someone, but his lawyers told him not to bring it up, ever.

Which rappers do you think may have actually killed a thread in the past?

when when ?uestlove posts on okplayer, trolls shut the fuck up

i don't suppose he's ever killed anyone though.

<waits for the ?uestlove thug stories to roll in>

classic material

No-one's said Schooly D.

Classic throwaway line in Chuck Eddy's "The Accidental Evolution of Rock and Roll": "Schooly D. used to mug old ladies or study art or something..."

Q-Tip once beheaded a dude for saying a lake wasn't beautiful

C Murder appears to be out of luck.

Strange story about Q-Tip.

That sounds like dark humour. Or is there more to it ?

I think it's not happening til the next season of GoT

nah man. behind his chill demeanor, Q-Tip is a calculating sociopath. in his wake are many, many bodies.

his name is c murder because he sees murder. doesn't necessarily commit murder.― À la recherche du temps Pardew (jim in glasgow), Sunday, January 16, 2011 2:03 AM Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

Still LOL at this

Are we then to assume Ghostface Killer only kills ghostfaces (whathever they are), and is not, in fact, the slayer of men we previously thought?

uhhhh...

[thinker emoji]

haha whoa...it feels like maybe there should be some extra quotation marks there, like he's describing the braggadocio that he doesn't do?

Muddy Waters's guitarist Pat Hare recorded a song called "I'm Gonna Murder My Baby" and then did just that.

yeah Pat Hare could drop a mean 16

Since Definitive Jux is a haven for unique underground rappers who do not fit in anywhere else, I start the interview by asking him what makes him unique in the rap game.

He is surprisingly circumspect. “A good question… I think I am probably the only rapper right now with a combover, and I think the dress code is a little bit unique. I think most of it is visual. I don’t think I have much to say that is really interesting. But I think I look cool.”

I don’t think I have much to say that is really interesting

wasn't this the name of Drake's first EP

can't believe nobody mentioned Cassidy

Despot's album is the indie rap Chinese Democracy

Max B keeled someone too

indirectly and unintentionally, the case was questionable tbh

this thread makes me think about how dumb the title for the Kendrick Lamar thread is
