But you should know this even if you don't like rap...This was one of the biggest stories in the news a few years back...Puffy and Shyne were involved in some club beef, when shots started going off in the air (supposedly it was Puffy shooting), hitting an innocent lady in the face (she survived). Shyne took the rap and ended up with a long jail sentence, while Puffy got off free...PeACe

I was a manager of the Radio Shack on the sunset hills so I happend to meet tons of famous people. Met Elton Brand, Drew Barrymore, Jessica Simpson, Paris Hilton, Jack Black. During award ceremonies a lot of rappers would stay at the Mondrian Hotel in front of my store so before the ceremony  they would kill time in my place I met the Ying Yang Twins, X Zibit, Snoop, Daz, De La Soul, Naughty By Nature, David Banner, The Game, and shit load of other rappers. Peter Fonda from the new Ghostrider movie chilled at my store for like 4 hours one time we were talking bout cars since he was rollin in a Ferrari. You realize when you meet so many famous ppl that they are nothing special. A lot of them are arrogant amongst them Kobe Bryant, very arrogant, great player tho, Jack Black was an ass too. And then you meet the real dope people like Elton Brand, Ying Yang twins were real cool. T Pain is coo ass fuck, Chingy real cat, but most surprisingly Paris Hilton. She can be a hoodrat, but shes a dope ass person. Not cocky at all. She was a real down to earth person not conceited at all. I've met a bunch of other people, too many to remember. I guess I would have to say my most memorable and most related to this forum was when I had VIP tickets to Club Levels in Downtown LA and Kurupt, Daz, Soopafly and Warren G were performing. Afterward we chilled in the lounge drank and smoked with them. It was a crazy ass experience. All them cats are coo as fuck. Warren G even sparked my blunt cuz I didnt have a lighter. CrazY!

Oh I heard that shit, but I guarantee you noone famous was actually using the gun. At least not Puffy. I heard about their legal ish, I didn't think anyone actually believed Puffy fired a gun.

Check this,

May 2005 when Snoop and Game came to UCSD, me and my boy went up to the concert to meet up wit 1 of my homegirls to get our tickets.....anyway so we ended up parking in the "artist entry" parking lot where Snoop, Daz, Kurupt, Soopafly, Game, Big Fase 100, Warren G, BattleCat, Terrace Martin, DJ Jam and Larrence1500 all parked and entered.  

Any, we have no tickets and we can't get in touch wit the girl so we said lets try our luck and enter through the back door where they all were.  Of course they had security but we walked up to the door, they checked us and let us walk right in.  Now we are thinking, we have No tickets, NO wristbands we are bound to get kicked out of here but nobody said anything to us.

So we are backstage, the dpg is in their dressing rooms and Game is on stage.  So we head to the stage during Games last song, he finishes then walks all through the crowd, he comes our way and we shake his and Fase's hand but we didn't talk!  

Okay, its the DPGs turn to go up, mind you we are right on the side of the stage where they have to go up the stage stairs.  Daz, Kurupt, Soopafly, Terrace, BattleCat, DJ Jam and Larrenc1500 walks toward us, we shake their hands, tell them to have a great show then they went on.  Snoop had a grip of security around him so we couldn't say nothing to him.  While they where performing Warren G comes from the back and is standing right next to me and I shook his hand and propped him ya know!  The show was finished I walked up to Cat, Soopafly and Terrace, shook their hands, propped them on their show and music.  I told Terrace I produced also and he even gave me his number.  I called once but got a voicemail and never called again!  That shit was unbelieveable!  THAT MADE MY WHOLE YEAR OF 05
meeting all them dudes!

Sorry so long

ANother 1

My band, Those Dang Robinsons, shared the stage wit Mykestro and Lupe Fiasco!  I didn't get a chance to holla at Lupe but I chopped it up wit Stro, propped him on his performance and mixtape then we exchanged numbers!  Cool dude.

I got alot of these.  In 04 I met Spice 1, Lloyd and Lil Jon at the Atlanta airport.  I shook Spice 1's hand and propped him.  The same wit Lil Jon but didn't say much to Lloyd.

[Shawn Nutt]

Yeah, some good stories here, especially the one about the Snoop/Game concert, how you just walked in without tickets, lol. Nice list, NIK.

"Backwoods got me congested, ain't rested in 2 days..."

One of the greatest songs ever. The beat on the mixtape version is fucked, though.

I treat my dollar bills like my Caddy steering wheel.
I'm not a chill pill, freak, do what ya will.
Heart tickin' like a timebomb, eatin' spicy prawns.
Man, it's the God of Khan, check it, baby, right or wrong.
Man, look but don't stare, it's the crime-rhyme king.
Wit' braids like a juvenile, Khan, nah mean?
