BLIND ITEM: SNOBBY RAPPER IN DEBT

Wednesday, April 25, 2007

A great buzz was generated before this rapper released his album, so much so, that he purchased numerous luxury items (including bling) on credit, anticipating a huge cash flow. Although the album had strong sales it’s first week, it fell off the charts within the next few weeks due to illegal downloading.

Now, this rapper is in debt with jewelers, casinos and creditors. It’s doubtful that he can recover because he alienates the people who can help him: Promoters, agents and the fans who buy his music. It seems as if he has an intense hatred for his fans, he’s been in numerous unreported altercations with fans who simply ask for his autograph. He or his bodyguard-either curse out fans, push them aside roughly or threaten them with their lives.

NOTE: All blind items are written by Myra Panache or her staff. No, I do not know what the answer is, after all it is called a Blind Item. Please contact Myra if you have any questions. Thank you.

I’ve met joe budden, and kanye…they were both really nice. So I think it’s Busta.
Diddy like the spotlight on him so I doubt that he would hate his fans or harm him in anyway…he loves when someone ask for an autograph.

The only rapper I’ve always heard about having problems with his fans has been Busta. Damn, I would have thought he had some money saved up from his previous albums.

Ummm, while Busta Bust seems like the most popular choice .. Ima hafta go wit LUPE FIASCO.. think about it yall he has been in numerous reports of talkin crazy 2 the very ppl that have helped him get to where he iz 2day … his album food and liq had SO much buzz but he LOST so much bread due to all of the illegal d.l. Busta has been in the game for YEARS so there ain no reason for him to be coppin ish on credit THINK ABOUT IT

Actually Fancy, you may be right! Lupe Fiasco came to my college to perform in December. Not only did he arrive 2 hours late to the performance, but it was wack and he was rude to people. I wasn’t there but this is what my friends tell me. Then, at the after party, he had a nasty attitude, refused to sign stuff, and looked hella grumpy in all his pictures.

The only thing is I haven’t heard of him having altercations with fans in the past. I don’t know.

My guess is The Game or Busta Rhymes…both of their albums had all this hype, seemed promising and then fell off.

THIS COULD LITERALLY BE ANYBODY!!!

I’D GO WITH:
RICH BOY
YOUNG JOC
G-UNIT/ YAYO? (only 50 is getting paid off that joint)
GAME
YOUR NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR TRYIN TO MAKE IT IN THE “INDUSTRY”

COULD BE ANYONE!

HATE TO SAY IT BUT:
BUSTA RHYMES HAS A THING FOR BEATING UP FANS, HAD ALL THEM NY JETS AND DOOKIE ROPES TO PROMOTE HIS ALBUM, THAT DIDNT EVEN DO WELL. BUT I HOPED HE’S STACKED HIS $ AND THIS AINT HIM.

This is easy.

It’s Busta Rhymes.

Everyone was anticipating his release on Aftermath and that shit FLOPPED. He even went on his press tour touting his gaudy new necklaces, etc.

WHOEVER SAID “BUSTA RHYMES” IS JUST PLAIN IG-NANT—Busta has good cash flow…and he still gets royalties from those Tribe albums..and let’s not even front on Anarchy….ok…and the movies. I can’t stand Busta’s personality..but he is incredibly talented..so don’t hate

113.

You know I think it might be MIKE JONES who MIKE JONES!

114.

Bmoreserious

Wednesday, April 25, 2007 /

Also, Lupe Fiasco does not wear “bling”..and he is mad cool…so it’s not him.

One more thing I need to put out there: Back in 2003, everyone was coppin Joe Budden’s single (was it called the Jumpoff???) off Napster, Morpheus, Ares—who bought it???? As a matter of fact..I didn’t even know Budden had an album out back then..but then I found out six month later when I was in Best Buy. I don’t think anyone bought that shit.

I have a hard time downloading Busta’s singles on those P2P engines…his songs are not leaked like that…but for the mose part..Busta’s fans are loyal..and they DO buy his albums. The answer is Joe Budden.

115.

Pinky

Wednesday, April 25, 2007 /

Busta-what it is right now. Does he have a chain with like sports teams? maybe deelishus can give him some money

116.

Alexandra

Wednesday, April 25, 2007 /

Wow. Regardless, Busta has more money in the bank than I do. I hope he is able to pay off his debt and interest with the next album. Having financial difficulties is a bitch especially when you trying to compete with other rich rappers.

On a bad note, his jewelry is tacky and ugly. Who walks around with a big ass NY logo (in blue of course) or Apple (love the rubbies - I hope they are real) hanging from their neck. He looks like a prized slave being exhibited by the master…….just silly. He could have at least spend his money on fly jewelry.

117.

@ #94 ROTFLMBAO!!!!!!

I’m sayin Lil Flip.
It’s definitely not Busta or Diddy or anyone like that. They been in the game too long. They certainly got dough.

its busta rhymes cuz his album didnt go no where after the 3rd week. and i read an article about him being downloaded alot. and i kno damn well he dont lik his fans, didnt he punch a fan or sum shit? well i think its him

120.

Wednesday, April 25, 2007 /

First of all, album sales are in a steady decline. In particular hip-hop album sales are the worst it has ever seen, but do not be too quick to blame low album sales on unauthorized downloading.

This “blind item” could be anyone.

121.

Bmoreserious

Wednesday, April 25, 2007 /

I can’t believe people are still saying Busta..when I told yall asses it was Joe Budden. It must be some hard-headed 15-year-old high schoolers on this site..go back to class!!! I stopped visiting Concrete Loop for a while after I found out my 15 year old sister knows about it..I’ll be 26 next week. Besides, I’m tired of the Active X controls, the slow loading, and the pop-up ads..what’s the deal, Angel??

It’s Busta. Even before Cribs, he was bouncing child support checks. And just because you saw it on Cribs don’t mean it was paid for. Negro never should left L.O.N.S. Y’all pray for him. He’s going thru a lot right now.

I think its a new artist bcuz thats the only ones going crazy with bling and all the other ish the other artist are already used to. Im gonna take a wild guess, ummmm— Rich boy.

129.

TheMastermind

Wednesday, April 25, 2007 /

Stop saying its Diddy, Jay Z, or even 50 Cent and his crew(If 50 is rich, so is his crew.)…

Busta Rhymes i seriously doubt…
Who did he assault?
He assaulted someone who spit on his car.(I wouldnt consider that a fan)
He assaulted his former driver.(Thats a paid worker, not to be considered a fan)
…as for his album…this can be said about any rapper cause illegal downloading is major heavy right now. This still was his first #1 chart album and still 2.2mil sold worldwide.

My guess…
…would probably be a southern rapper since that region did get heavy rotation in 2006 but he…wtf do i know.

I wish Myra would friggin answer these things…cause these blind item occurances are happening too often and none get resolved.

Wednesday, April 25, 2007 /

I honestly think the answer is BUSTA RHYMES. I remember hearing last year that he had got into a serious altercation with a fan who wanted his autograph. Do y’all remember that story? It was all over the internet sometime last year. This altercation happened a little bit after his last album “Big Bang Theory” dropped.

I remember when I first heard about that story…I kept saying to myself “Why wouldn’t this fool want to give one of his “fans” an autograph”? Your fans are what make you who you are. And Busta is not selling albums the way that he used to in the late 90s. His sales have really fallen off. He’s beginning to turn into a washed-up rapper. We’ll be seeing him on “The Surreal Life” soon.

And for those of you saying the answer is Diddy and The Game…are you crazy??? Both of Game’s albums have sold big…especially his first one…Game has stacks of money. Diddy’s albums aren’t selling big like that anymore, but Diddy is definitely NOT in debt at all. That man shits $20 bills out of his ass.

141.

TheMastermind

Wednesday, April 25, 2007 /

Well…looks like i was wrong to not assume Busta cause hes 1 of the 2 candidates in reference here…

I actually took some time to read her reports and look what i stumbled upon…

“Downloading has destroyed big album sales. The sales record for Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” will never be broken because of illegal downloads. The artist will make even less in sales therefore they have to heavily rely on tours for income unless they sabotage their careers like Snoop and Busta. Big U.S. promoters are reluctant to book rap acts because of the threat of violence and since record sales are way down, how can a rap artist make a decent living if their records don’t sale and they can’t tour? The overseas market is the most logical answer but when you and your crew (Snoop) have a brawl in a European airport you will be declined entry for future gigs and that’s what happened to Snoop. He literally threw away hundreds of thousands in income. It was reported last year, allegedly Busta Rhymes had a falling out with European promoters and allegedly, they are not interested in booking him, ever again. Why bite the hand that feeds you? Some of these rap artists need to let go of that thug mentality and violent behavior because they’re sabotaging themselves from future income.”

Busta Rhymes. He has been acting like a serious DICK lately. His first single Touch It was a big hit… genereated hype for his album but he failed to secure a legitimate second hit single. He is also known for his bad relations with fans, to the point where people want him dead. That is why his bodyguard got shot and killed trying to protect Busta. Also, his homophobic verbal assault against a once loyal gay fan further proves that he is a snob. I also hear that he isn’t the best father to his growing tribe of children. Plus, none of his albums have done considerably well since “When Disaster Strikes” so I know he owes somebody money because his albums aren’t recouping. He has had hits on OTHER ARTIST’S SONGS doing the remix thing, but there isn’t a alot of money in that. In conclusion, Busta Rhymes is a jackass and I can’t wait until he files for bankruptcy.

I know damn well yal not saying Diddy,noweven tho most of the clues match his persona, this man AINT NO WHERE NEAR BEING BROKE OR IN DEBT!

Busta just seems so cool om TV of course, but i think its him

146.

John Coffey

Wednesday, April 25, 2007 /

Look, people. It’s Busta. Just because his last CD sold 2.2 million doesn’t mean he’s paid. Dude was waaaay in the hole with bills from waaaaaaay back. Trust me, I got the inside scoop on his financial and legal affairs. After his take off that last CD, he MIGHT be back at break-even.

Busta Rhymes! Because I remember his last album had a huge buzz before it came out. The “Touch it” song had like 3 different remixes, and it was one of his biggest hits! Then remember the incident were Busta was getting sued because a fan wanted an autograph and his Bodyguards kicked his ass? Then yall seen all that jewlery that fool had? He was rocking hella ice. It’s BUSTA RHYMES!

149.

I think it’s Busta too cause one year at the Source Awards everyone but him was cool you couldn’t even get close to him because of his bodyguard.
