Rapper C-Murder Convicted of Killing Fan

Share

(Newser) – New Orleans rapper Corey "C-Murder" Miller has been found guilty of murdering a 16-year-old fan, the Times-Picayune reports. The teen was shot during a nightclub brawl in 2002. The rapper—who changed his stage name to C-Miller after the incident—was convicted of the killing in 2003 but a mistrial was later declared. He will be sentenced later this week for both the fan's murder and the attempted murder of a nightclub owner in 2001.

those who like rap of course, inclusive of eminem . i forgot that by monkeys some of you mean a derogatory term to design black people. well now i think i have to do the Cartman apology: «i don't hate black people. i hate the hippies» where substitute hippies with rap music. please dont label me as racist. still i don't see the good in music without real melody, glorification of violence and gangster stars.
