Shyne Comments on Drake's Success

Okay, i am glad i am reading something positive from shyne- he currently said drake has serious potential to go down in history of rap. After all the rick ross bashing, i think it is uplifting to read this.

"I think the Drake kid has serious potential to go down in the history of rap," Shyne explained in an interview. "I definitely get inspired. He's not really a rapper. He's a musician, you dig? He sings and he makes great music. I'm inspired by what he does...Most of the people I interact with are honest people. They are who they are. Drake is a kid that says 'Listen, I'm not from the streets. I'm just making good music.' Kanye's a dude that doesn't try to be anything other than who he is. [Lil] Wayne is really off the block...All the kids I respect and admire are truthful people. I like the kid Lupe Fiasco. I think he's extraordinary. I'm really about truth, man. If you're being honest and you have integrity, I'm all for you." (Superstar Radio)

Hmm! I still feel some tension there...like he is indirectly going at rick ross for being a Correctional Officer.

Shyne Questions Rick Ross's Street Credibility

Former Bad Boy Records artist, Shyne, who got out of jail last year, after servicing a 10 year bid has been questing the right Rick Ross has to be rapping about all the Gangstar stories he be putting in his songs. He has been dissing rick ross, on track, and on interviews since he got out, and this is getting me thinking maybe he is just looking for some attention. I know rick ross has not replied him, and he (ross) just goes on making his money- in line with ross making money, he was paid $100,000 by soem parents in my country (Nigeria) just to appear at their kid's 10 year old birthday party- you can check it out here- Nigerian parents pay rick ross $100k.

I can remember the week shyne got out of jail, rick ross showed nothing but love, and extended a hand in anything shyne might want to get into musically. I think the negative energy shyne is carrying around is what has not made him drop anything sensible since he got out. I wish him all the best.

Read the story below-
"The difference between me and everybody else, I was talking to Fat Joe the other day when he was like, 'Yo, it's entertainment,' and I was like, 'That's the difference between me and a former correction officer or any of these other dudes.' It's not entertainment for me. You dig? Whatever I give you, is me...[I'm definitely talking about] Rick Ross. Absolutely. He's the only officer I know that's a rapper. I don't know anybody else that used to be a cop that raps...Hip-Hop comes from the gutter, it's from the struggle, from the dudes that's in prison so for a dude that used to lock dudes in, for the dude that used to be like, 'Yo, on the wake up! You got a visit,' for that dude to turn into the biggest gangsta rapper is like shocking to me. I don't even understand that. That makes no sense to me..." (Superstar Radio)

He even had a chat with FAT JOE, about the matter, and he is still being negative...come on son! It is all entertainment. Shyne, you just said it yourself, rick ross is the biggest gangstar rapper, i guess that is the real reason why you are mad,a nd i guess that is the reason YOUNG JEEZY is also mad at the kid. I am 30, and have been listening to rap since i was 14, and i know that not all what the rappers say is true, so i can not be offended by rick ross, as long as he keeps dishing out good music. That's all i got to say.

And below is what he said in october last year-
"Why wouldn't I?," Shyne asked in an interview about dissing Ross on his "Belize" record. "I mean, you know, I don't get that. I don't get an ex-prison guard being the #1 gangsta rapper. I don't get that at all my man. I'm not saying you gotta feel the way I feel, but please, please have some compassion [for someone like me who is back home] from just doing ten years and going to war with the cops...you bangin' on police because they trying to talk to your girl, or they trying to touch ya mama in the wrong place. So I deal with crooked cops my whole life. Ain't nothing worse to me than a crooked cop. That's the worst thing you can do is use your badge to get ahead. I'd rather a cop just be a cop. And I respect where you stand, and you respect where I stand. But how a cop gonna profit from the life that I live? Uh-uh, I ain't jackin' that. So yeah, I just want people to be clear, "No, not the C.O." Nah, that ain't me." (Hip Hop DX) 

RAPPER, SHYNE'S FATE.

Shyne, former BAD BOY rapper, was released from jail last week, after serving 9 years in prision for gun a charges, concerning a night club shooting. The incidence that happened in 1999, which also had his boss, P.DIDDY, and JENIFER LOPEZ present. Right now, he is facing deportation and is being held at a detention center. Shyne is originally from BELIZE, and came to the U.S when he was 7, but has since then, gotten an AMERICAN green card.

I wish him all the best in getting good lawyer's to beat the case. But on related stories, he is rumored to be signed to rapper, GAME'S, BLACK WALL STREET label, in partnership with CZAR ENTERTAINMENT.. I think that would do good for his career right now. But i do not understand what is going on withhim and diddy, i thought it was all love.

Two years after budding MC Shyne was sentenced to a decade in prison for the 1999 New York nightclub shooting that seriously injured two victims, he was dropped from Bad Boy by the man who escaped a guilty verdict in the case: Sean Combs. Shyne has since spoken out against Diddy, saying his former mentor betrayed him during the trial by hiring lawyers who didn’t work to their full potential and supporting the testimony of witnesses Shyne believes weren’t telling the truth (Diddy has denied these claims).

So when the Daily News quoted Diddy as recently telling Hot 97 he had spoken to Shyne who was “in good spirits,” the now 30-year-old rapper was shocked. “I want it known that this supposed conversation is a figment of Sean Combs’ imagination,” he says in a statement. “He never spoke with me, he never visited me nor would I ever accept a phone call or visit from him. The only way I would do either of those things would be if he stepped up and did the right thing for the victims of the incident.”

A $130 million civil lawsuit filed by victim Natania Reuben against Combs and Shyne is still pending in Brooklyn, New York. Shyne has maintained that he only fired a gun in Club New York on December 27, 1999 in self-defense after his crew (which included Diddy’s then-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez) were involved in an altercation with a man named Matthew “Scar” Allen. Shyne didn’t take the stand during his trial, and served eight years for assault, reckless endangerment and gun possession. “I never meant to hurt nobody — I was afraid for my life,” Shyne said at his sentencing in 2001. He has since changed his name to Moses Levi and remains in custody as officials decide whether he will be deported to Belize, where his father is the prime minister.
