Vernon Coleman II http://hiphopwired.com/?p=110583 Big Sean Speaks On Arrest

Finally Famous rapper Big Sean recently addressed the his arrests after being accused of sexual assault following a show in Buffalo, New York, earlier this month.

During a recent interview with radio host Tim Westwood, Sean said what little he could about the case, which he said should be taken care of in a few weeks.

“Man, Isht that was just some little minor Isht man. I really want to talk about it too and go through the details, but my lawyer says I can't talk about it til it's all said and done. But I'd be happy too,” Big Sean explained.

Peep the entire interview below:

G.O.O.D. Music artist Big Sean, who has had a breakthrough year with his hit single "My Last" and debut album Finally Famous, recently performed on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.

The Detroit rapper was backed by legendary Hip-Hop group and Jimmy Fallon's house band The Roots and performed two tracks, "I Do It" and "Marvin Gaye & Chardonnay," from his Finally Famous debut.

The performance was Sean's second appearance on the show, but first since he's now finally famous, if you will.

Watch here:

Big Sean gets suited up for the new single off his Finally Famous LP with Kanye West. "Marvin Gaye & Chardonnay" features Roscoe Dash and the video is coming soon directed by Hype Williams.

On September 10^th at the Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland, Kanye's protege and Cee-Lo Green will headline the Virgin Mobile FreeFest. To get in free, all you have to do is go to Virgin Mobile LIVE's Facebook page and like the page starting July 15th.

Back in the days, when someone took your style it was war. DMX and K-Solo beefed over the spellbound flow, Tupac claimed Biggie stole his morbid content and when Fabolous came out, Mase had his issues with the lazy punchline-heavy delivery of the BK rapper.

But it's a new day and although Finally Famous emcee Big Sean is supposedly credited with the "one word punchline" flow that seems to have every artist "getting down...basement," Drake stole the spotlight as the originator.

Sean, however isn't mad nor is he making a brazen attempt to set the record straight, but on Big Boy's radio show he did let fans know where the style came from.

On his mixtape in 2009, the Detroit emcee recited, "I'm supa dupa troopa/Used to the bottom, scuba...I just gave them line after line after line, barcode."

After some prodding, he admitted a tad bit of saltiness in the beginning, “At first, I was like, ‘Man, this crazy! Everybody doing this!' But then I thought about it and I was like, that's not the way to be. You gotta keep it G, man. G's don't get mad. G's is like, that's what it is. They congratulate you. I changed the game, so I'ma keep changing the game. It is what it is.”

Yes we all know Big Sean is a G and even though a war between him and Drake would have been painfully entertaining, lucky for us they are cordial and cool.

He claims Drizzy gave him his props for originating the flow and they just spoke recently. See for yourself how Big Sean breaks it down.
