LOL at the cats makin' excuses for rappers sellin' drugs... That's great... This is a grown man who made a conscious decision to oppress his own people by sellin' them poison... It's illegal, gettin' arrested is part of the game, I'm sure he was aware of the fact.
I'd like to share a thought:
Sellin' drugs is not easy money, it's just faster.. and unless you're a kingpin (Khadafi is not), you don't make that much anyway... At least not enough to make it worth the risk. The claimed advantage is that you don't pay taxes, and it's all cash... But nothin' is tax free. You sell drugs, they tax your life and your freedom, plain and simple. Nothin' is more valuable.
At least half of the drugs that come into the country are by our own government. This fact should not be a secret, but shouldn't offer too much of a gray area either. Federal prisons are big business, they make a lot of money off of prison labor; so of course the government targets minorities. They build more prisons than they do schools, because prisons make money. Drug dealers, especially minority drug dealers are just pawns doin' the government's work: They oppress and kill their own people, so the government can profit while doin' half the work.
My point is this: Few here would argue that Khadafi is not an intelligent man.. And there is nothin' worse than an intelligent man who oppresses his own people by supplyin' poison onto his streets. If he was sellin' drugs, and got locked up for it, shame on him.. He got what he deserved. If he wants better for his kids, he should expect better for himself. I hope he learns from this experience on his own, and re-evaluates his sense of self-worth and the worth of his people, because we all know prison rehabilitation does not work.

Ya'll are some sheltered pussies, you do what you need to, try making rent in a week when your flat broke and just got kicked out of where your livin...See how far community college or a shitty job gets you
College takes time and money, something people in poverty do not have, smart or not, sometimes its smarter to NOT live in the streets
I hope Trag keeps his head up and his people look after him, getting caught up with the law is fucked up, its even worse when your people don't have your back
Peace to the god, Tragedy get back out and teach these kids
LOL... You'd be very foolish to assume I haven't struggled.. I didn't grow up in a privaliged neighborhood, or in a privalged family.. Never spent a day on a college campus.. I live check to check and been payin' rent since sixteen years of age... I've had a lot of friends in and out of prison for sellin' drugs, and lost four friends in the last five years to drug related murders, and one to an overdose... We were all from the same neighborhood.. We all made choices.. Everyone has a choice! Neither of them is easy, but stayin' out of the drug business gives you better odds of stayin' alive!
Somebody should've taught him that he had a choice.. We all do...
Not really defending him, just sad to see such good talent have to struggle because he can't make it in the rap game. I don't support selling drugs but tragedy did say "fight a lion with a pocket knife to feed my kids"
I think a lot of people are upset at the fact that they might not hear one of their favorite rappers put music out for a while. I think that he will put something out though. Don't hate on tragedy though, he did what he did and now he is paying the price. But, I also hear that all these people complain that these rappers don't really do what they say in their raps, at least you know tragedy speaks truth when he raps. I think he does have a good heart but he was stuck in a tight situation. BUT, I usually don't speak on things I know nothing about so I can't really call it.
obviously if you don't listen to his music you won't care.
jesus christ how materialistic can ppl get?
sure a regular job dont bring RAP money in but shit its sumthin
they just sellin drugs cuz its too much to get up early in the morning for that 9 to 5
PsyKosus i'm glad to see somebody besides me is speaking the truth. These fools on here feeling sorry for Tragedy's situation when he's the fool for selling drugs and getting locked up. Like you said, drugs are poison to our people and especially poor blacks. We need more smart blacks instead of dumb blacks. It's bad enough we got a lot of black men locked up and we only make up a small percentage of america.
but as a listener of BMM and many other so-called intelligent/militant artists and a believer in the spiritual war going on in this world (good vs evil AKA defeat the new world order illuminazis)....i am thinkin trag was set-up in some way by this government.
"you only die or go to jail for the one controllin' it
we never ship it but always get caught for holdin it
while the government finance those who float it in
so whose the culprits, he who ownin' it or he who smokin in
to those who lost souls in the game, my condolences..."
