The thing is that some rap music artists are funded by drug dealers who set up a record label to launder money until they reach a mainstream audience, and because of this, they'll already be affiliated with some gang activity but it doesn't mean those particular rappers should proceed to name any names or certain events in their Hip Hop songs. If any rapper does that who is to blame for their own downfall except themselves?

On the other hand, some rappers fund their own careers from the money they obtain from the streets, therefore, the idea that cops shouldn't cite self-incriminating lyrics makes no damn sense.

Y'all remember Ronald Herron, aka Ra Diggs? He went down because some of his lyrics were used during his trial wherein Crystal Lewis, Joseph Garcia, Raphael Gonzalez, and Vincent Winfield also testified against him about the murder of Victor Zapata including the other two murders.

Now Ra Diggs has to serve 12 life terms plus an additional 105 years. He is basically done for at ADX Florence in Colorado where Larry Hoover is currently locked up too all because he ratted on himself on that song [I]Eulogy[/I].

Abdul Ibrahim West, aka AR-AB, is yet another example of what not to do if you decide to be a gangster.
