“I was in my dressing room.”
This sounds like some of those Columbo episodes—the perfect alibi!
someone unrapped an early christmas present...
And he “chose to immediately leave the festival grounds.”
Hmmmm… 🤔
Gangsta concert living up to its name.
“Were the stabbers acting in concert?”
Well, there was a band of them ...
“What is it with all these rappers being killed?”
Organized crime.

“Give me Cab Calloway, or Dinah Washington any day!”
Or the Four Tops, the Spinners, or Harold Melvin.

Oh, my gosh…the comments in this thread are killing me!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I came all this way
just to say,
