Bobby Shmurda

The young Brooklyn rapper is currently rotting away in prison after police say he and his gang were pushing “Crills” (alleged street code for narcotics) among other crimes. It doesn’t help his cause that he rapped he had “been selling crack since like the fifth grade” on his hit song, “Hot N***a.”

Nelly is currently denying that the Jesse Pinkman crystal meth found on his tour bus isn’t his. We sure like to believe him.
