Getting arrested three times in one day? That's the shit we don't like. Getting a feature placement on Kanye West's new album is a great look—Being behind bars isn't. Haven't we seen this movie before? This Chiraq MC and trouble are synomnous. Drive slow, young homie.
The whole 2 Chainz robbery fiasco. The culprits. Tit for initially denying it and you fuck boys on the Internet who made him feel like he should. Ain't no shame in defending yourself by fists or by feet. It ain't safe in these streets.

Attention T.J. Maxx shoppers, hours after Jay-Z’s “3 Kings” verse hit the ‘net, the department store responded via their Twitter account that they opened in 1977. Popping tags 35 years strong.
