Violence begets violence as Darnell Brittingham, an aspiring rapper who went by the name of King Tut who was wanted for the stabbing of a woman in New Jersey, has committed suicide. Police surrounded a cab that Darnell was aboard in New York. The 23-year old rapper refused to comply with authority and shot himself in the head. It sucks for everyone. The victim of the stabbing in New Jersey doesn’t get her justice, Darnell loses his life and the families of those involved lose a loved one. Violence is never the answer. Regardless of your status in life, never commit such a thing.

Adding to the list of rappers that have gotten in trouble is has-been Coolio. The rapper was arrested earlier this week for driving on a suspended license. Well that was lighter of a case than most. Coolio was pulled over in Hollywood for a minor traffic violation when the cops discovered that there was an arrest warrant out for him for the suspended license. The rapper has since been released on $10,000 bail. With a career as dead as his, I have to wonder where he got the money to pay for bail. Let’s hope he still has enough to get himself a good lawyer.

Old-school rap legend KRS-One was hospitalized in New Haven, Connecticut with a fractured hand last week when a so-called fan threw a bottle on stage which struck the rapper in the head and hand. The irony of it all was that the rap legend was performing in New Haven on his ‘Stop the Violence’ tour. But instead of being like Akon and Lil Wayne, KRS-One practiced what he preached and asked that the offender not be prosecuted and just told his fans to “Let it go. Let it go. When negativity comes your way, let it go.” He also continued on rapping after the incident. Unfortunately, KRS-One had to cancel several performances due to the severity of his injuries.
