Rick Ross & Birdman ft. Busta Rhymes – Shittin On Them

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

Get it? Birdman? Shittin on them? See what they did there? Ha.

Off the collabo album these two were supposed to be doing. I’m assuming this is coming out now because it has the same sample as the Detox reference Shit Popped Off.

UPDATE: So it turns out that this beat, which was produced by Best Kept Secret, was supposed to appear on Wale’s debut album. So I’ve been asked to remove the track. Sorry ladies.

N.O.R.E. Arrested in Miami

Damn slime! Either this guy was shitfaced, or there’s more to this story than what the press is reporting.

According to the Miami Herald:

New York rapper N.O.R.E. was arrested on Miami Beach on Sunday afternoon after punching a man in the face and throwing a cup of yellow liquid on him, according to police.

Victor Santiago, who also goes by stage names N.O.R.E. or Noreaga, was arrested by Miami Beach police after he got into a fight with a man at Fatburger, a South Beach restaurant located at 947 Washington Ave., police said.

According to the police report, Santiago and three other men walked into Fatburger yelling loudly. On their way in, the rapper ripped one of the restaurant’s flower bouquets out of its place. Santiago then offered a man a cup of yellow liquid — when the man refused, Santiago threw it at him.

”Do you know who I am?” Santiago yelled, according to the report.

The rapper then punched the man in the face three times, police said.

Classic. I’m gonna have to agree with 57thAve and say that the real shocker here is that Nore was in a Fatburger. That doesn’t sound like a vegan diet to me. Ha ha. Hold you head slime, this too shall pass.

UPDATE: N-O says he was getting a veggie burger, and swears there were no flowers involved.Tonight on Lip Service, he will reveal to Angela Yee what the yellow liquid was.
