Be Safe, Though: Tekashi 6ix9ine Housed In The Snitch Unit

Source: @JustInMyView / R1 Digital There was never any doubt that Tekashi 6ix9ine would be singing like a bird once the Feds got their hands on him. Considering how tattletales are treated in crime circles ( his own family sees the jig ), the Brooklyn rapper is being housed with other snitches for his safety. In fact, Tekashi is probably doing better than most inmates. Reports TMZ : Fact is … the feds believe Tekashi is already safe and secure in the facility he’s called home for nearly a year. The joint houses other snitches, all of whom have the same problem … certain people want to kill many of them and are willing to pay a hefty price to get the job done. The facility has a unit where a bunch of the snitches live. They spend all of their time with each other … no other inmates allowed. They have a common area where tables are set up for meals. It’s strictly a catering-in unit. Food carts come and go all day. They have exercise equipments and a TV in the common area and they sleep in a dormitory setting. Tekashi is facing 47 years in the bing if convicted of his crimes. However, prosecutors recently detailed how he will be basically pointing the finger at everyone in his crew, as well as admitting to his own crimes. The result is he’ll do significantly less time, while his rap career is basically a wrap. He may want to lose the face tattoos sooner than later, too.

Lord Jamar Says He Doesn’t Listen To Women Or White Rappers, “It Doesn’t Resonate.”

Source: TV ONE / TV One Brand Nubian member and Hip-Hop veteran Lord Jamar is no stranger to controversy, so his latest statement regarding women in Hip-Hop doesn’t come as a surprise. During an interview with Bosschick Raine for the online show “Battle Code”, Lord Jamar stated that he doesn’t feel women rappers aren’t appealing as artists because he can’t relate to their subject matter, despite having the first lady of Flipmode, Rah Digga , as his podcast cohost. “I don’t f*ck with female rappers,” he said before elaborating. “The same reason I don’t f*ck with white rappers or wack rappers: I can’t resonate with what a woman is talking about. Now listen, can I appreciate a sista that can rhyme good? Yes. Rah Digga can rhyme. She’s dope. Bahamadia, dope. But do I wanna listen to a female rhyming about female sh*t? It doesn’t resonate with me.” When asked about female rap legends like Lauryn Hill and MC Lyte , Lord Jamar revealed that he holds those two ladies at a different standard than most. “I love Lauryn Hill, but some people will say that’s not Hip Hop,” Lord Jamar continued. “You got some people that’ll say [ The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill ] was damn near an R&B album. I loved Lauryn Hill. She was one of the only female albums that I actually really did listen to on some ‘this is the soundtrack for a minute.’” In regards to fellow pioneer, MC Lyte, Jamar stated that her “tomboy” persona allowed him to bypass her gender and listen to her rhyme before stating the obvious that his point of view like his music choice is very misogynistic. “Lyte was different because we were younger. It was a different time and Lyte was almost like a tomboy at that time, so you kinda knew girls like Lyte, but Lyte’s music was more harder too,” Lord Jamar explained. “I like real Hip Hop. Like I said, I’m an alpha male. So, certain themes are not gonna resonate with me. Female themes, themes of sucker sh*t, white people themes. There’s a lot of shit that I wouldn’t resonate with. But I resonate with positive, militant, gangsta, sometimes misogynistic music. I’m just keeping it real. I’m just telling you what I like.” Check out the video below:

Gay Quote Of The Day: Brand Nubian Rapper Lord Jamar Calls Out Kanye West As “The Pioneer Of This Queer Isht!”

Lord Jamar is calling out all the non-cipher skirt and blouse wearing antics of the fashion world’s favorite MC — Kanye West . Monday, while most of the net was still fixated on the Super Bowl triumph of Beysus and her sisters and the haterism of Keyshia Cole, Lord Jamar, known largely for his 90′s hip-hop glory as part of the group Brand Nubian and more recently for his forays into acting, dropped a song that send the hip-hop world spinning. While we’ve been pointing out Ye’s love for womenswear for some time now — Lord Jamar dedicated an entire track to the dangers of embracing this style. Some are already calling him homophobic for the track. Check out some lyrics and the actual song below. Lyrics via AllHipHop : “”Somebody mad at my hash tag/ Black man lookin’ half a f*g/With a blazer and vest, I’m just amazed at the mess/Pioneer of this queer sh*t is Kanye West/He introduced the skinny jeans to the rap scene/Then he wore a f***ing skirt on the video screen/Then he wore it again at a memorial/I can’t pretend that this s**t ain’t deplorable/I bet this n***a thinkin’ he lookingadorable/Your music’s good but your ego is horrible.” Listen below: Do you agree? There’s an added layer to this argument because Lord Jamar reps the “Nation of Gods and Earths” — a group of people whose lingo and beliefs are peppered throughout hip-hop. In the interest of “building” and spreading knowledge, Lord Jamar took to his Twitter page to explain his thought process. Hit the flip for his tweets.
