Kareem “Biggs” Burke Pleads Guilty To Drug Charges

Roc-A-Fella records co-founder Kareem “Biggs” Burke appeared in court today and admitted to his federal drug charges including conspiracy and intent to distribute over 100 kilograms of Marijuana. As part of the plea deal, “Biggs” forfeited $660k, $15k seized cash, his 2010 BMW and home.

As part of an 18-month investigation, Biggs’ New Bergen, NJ home was raided in October 2010 and was among the 50 individuals arrested for their drug trafficking operation that stretched from Florida to New York. Burke will be sentenced on May 18 facing a minimum of 5 years, but up to 40 years in prison.

  9. JohnBlack says:

    Dumb nigga. Black society as a whole is utterly fucked if everybody aspires to be a gangsta. Here you have street nigga who could have sustained a legal lavish lifestyle just based of him founding Roc-A-Fella. Nigga never had to work again a day in his life, but instead chose to increase his wealth by illegal means and is no facing 40 years.

    Dumb Nigga

    Wow ! This dude has fallen from grace. Had 1 of the best hip hop labels in history now look at you smh.

  14. Your mother's "friend" says:

    This makes no sense at all, dude was a millionaire why on earth was he dealing drugs ?

    ballllllllllinnnnnnnnnnn PAUSE now go to jail

    None of us knows the dude, nor what was his financial status when he decided to revert back to his “street” ways. Maybe he wasn’t getting paid that much since Roc-A-Fella “died.

    Dame Dash isn’t/wasn’t doing too well neither.

    All that can be said is “Damn, homie!!!” but can’t judge him when you have The Conrad Blacks, Bernie Madoffs of the world: already wealthy motherfuckas schemin’ for more…
    plus it was only weed, not coke/crack, crystal meth & various other bullshit people are free-willed to use until they get addicted (that’s another story)

  18. A Week Ago is about testifying on your partners (and also being mad when you’re broke and locked up when your more successful partner is still on the street). Not the appropriate song for this situation at all. This is about someone who couldn’t leave the street life alone, even after legal success. Biggs has never (to my knowledge) said a bad word about Jay.

  19. JohnB says:

    We don’t know how he handled his moola…plus @R.Cey tells the truth : greed!

  20. Scandalous says:

    The song fits so perfect lol

  21. Tucq says:

    Yall don’t start blamin Jay for this. Biggs is a grown ass man, and these are his own decisions.

    I wish the brotha luck, though

    To all you stupid niggaz talkin shit…. Here’s a bar from your hero….

    Only God can judge him… Only he without sin.. Can tell me if my means.. Justify my ends… -Hov
