Der Onlinedienst TMZ.com berichtete über den Vorfall wie folgt: "Bama, Young Jeezy and several members of the crew were partying at an event at the Luckie Lounge in downtown Atlanta. Around 2:30 in the morning, we’re told a huge brawl erupted — in which Bama was stabbed multiple times. It’s unclear how serious the injuries are. Bama was taken to the Grady Memorial Hospital, where he is still receiving treatment. We’re told two other people were also stabbed during the fight."
In einem Interview mit einem anderen Magazin dementierte der junge Jeezy die Behauptungen von tmz.com jedoch:
"We was at the bar," sagte Jeezy. "I know they said something broke out, but we ain’t catch nothing. We got up out of the building and we left. Headed back to the studio and kicked it…Hell no! Niggas stab me? Ain’t no one dead is it? Nah, we one hundred, quit playing. I’m a tell you something too man, you better quit listening to them TMZ-Ass dudes, man. Come on man. These internet gangstas — I mean, bitches. Nah, we good man. We one hundred. Everybody we left with was good. Club pretty much closed after that. I ain’t see nothing so I can’t tell ya. We had a ball, man. We got up outta there."
Ganz komplett kann seine Gang aktuell jedoch nicht sein, da auch der Polizeibericht die Auseinandersetzung und die Einlieferung ins Krankenhaus bestätigte. Die Angreifer konnten weder festgenommen, noch identifiziert werden.
Von Young Jeezy geht es jetzt zu 50 Cent, der seines Zeichens ja auch ein recht erfolgreicher Drogendealer war. Der beklagte sich nämlich über die schleichende Verniedlichung amerikanischer Rap-Platten. Mr. Candy Shop versprach, dass sein neues Mixtape sich an den Stil des passionierten Knastbesuchers und Hundekämpfers DMX orientieren würde.
"This one was exciting for me," sagte Fifty über sein Mixtape "I have writing spurts. Like when I did the original version of The Massacre. I recorded the album in three days. It was like this with War Angel: two-verse songs. No third verse is on these records…It’s a cycle, creatively…It was a lot of soft music, a lot of lighthearted music, then DMX came out. Then it was like, ‚That’s what I’m talking about.‘ ‚Get at Me Dog,‘ it was that material that had that energy around it, then it got all lighthearted and soft all over again. Then there was, and that went on for five years."
