ATL brehs, is TI official in the streets?

[eastside313]

i aint out atl but this interview convinced me


he def a tweaked out somethin 5 min mark

"these people know whats happin wit me"

"noorth south east west and in the middle"

"top ten niikas who aint never been robbed"

"how many rappers still got all they jewelry"

"which crew never lost a fight in no club "

"i was locked up"

I'm guessing he said that before the ohio incident

 

[eastside313]

Here's the thing though
1. You are dumb if you try to rap and move work at the same time, not for the exposure but for the unnecessary amount of variables added to the equation
Which leads to
2. How long can you be heavy in the street and dumb at the same time? Even if you are smart how long can you be heavy in the streets on average..
Which leads to
3. How can we know that people actually flip bricks until they get caught or cats snitch on them and cosign their stories?

So statistically speaking we can't really tell if they are getting caught cause they are dumb or cause they are rapping.


People think Big Meech was fukking up cause he was flashing in the clubs and all that, they were so large scale that the FEDS already knew about them since the early 90s. They built cases for years, failed several times but succeeded in the end. Why? Not cause of Meech, but because of his "low-key brother" who was in another state and a bunch of rats.

Meech was out here with millions of dollars in jewels and cars paid for in cash. What you think those salesman told the Feds when they came a knockin. Knowing damn well he was a drug dealer and his record label was not making money. People snitched all over that case not just his brothers boys.

Technically he speaking he was inside the club, which is why they shot up his van outside the club

 

[Mr Hate Coffee]

No.

I mean he sold drugs but so did a lot of people.

He wasn't a boss.

Jacob took those charges like a G though and never ratted It's sad that a Jew jeweler got more heart than some of these street nikkaz

They were not stupid people, most of those things were covered; restaurants, their classic "limo service", bars, "mixtape sales" and several other things I read and probably shyt I never heard about. But Vegas is another usual suspect. Cars on bum nikkas, jewelry from dudes that kept the g-code..

Everyone knew, but few could prove it.
For over a decade dude was balling outrageous, the 2000s ballin was basically just promotion for his plans to get into the music business. I don't know how they wrote it off, but they probably had some good accountants.

Jacob The Jeweler Cops Plea In Money-Laundering Case - HipHop-Elements.com
Jeweler to the stars, Jacob Arabov, known by many as Jacob The Jeweler, copped a plea in court Thursday (October 31) where he had money-laundering charges dropped in exchange for a guilty plea to lesser charges.
According to the Associated Press, the 42-year-old Russian immigrant pleaded guilty to providing false documents and false statements to federal officials investigating the alleged Black Mafia Family Drug organization.

"I gave them false documents," he said of the DEA's visit to New York to question him in 2005. "I also basically lied to them."

Jacob was indicted on federal money-laundering charges in June of 2006 (see "Jacob The Jeweler Arrested On Money-Laundering Charges"), and accused of helping the drug organization known as the Black Mafia Family (BMF) launder more than $270 million in alleged drug profits through his jewelry business.

He admitted to knowingly receiving money from members of the BMF on Thursday that was illegal proceeds although his lawyer, Benjamin Brafman, maintains he didn't know it was from drugs.

A sentencing date has not been set, reports the AP, but Jacob faces anywhere from 37 to 46 months in prison, and will forfeit $2 million in cash as part of a plea agreement.

Jacob is currently free on bond.

Fukk outta here some good accountants. While they was balling outrageous, Feds was building their airtight case so they could give them nikkas that Rico charge. Limo service and mixtapes sales lol, that nikka probably had 5 million dollars in cars bruh. Going to the club spending half a million dollars in a week or 2.

 

[Thegospel]

His uncles put in the real work, TI from what i heard did his thing as well, not on a kingpin level but he is respected. The real warlord of ATL rap was Shawty LO he went toe for toe with him and TIP came out of it intact.

How many times I gotta tell these dumb nikkas it's easy to put in a little work if you're protected? If TI lil ass didn't have goon fam you think he would've survived? Black people still don't get it

 

[blackzeus]

Coppin' a plea deal is not the same as snitching breh, you of all people should know that. You cop a plea deal to avoid a lengthy court process, at the end of which the Feds would triple your sentence just because you wasted their time.

Going to the club "spending" half a million dollars in a week or 2.

Fixed All this "balling out" at the club is starting to make a lot of sense now

He plead guilty bruh and admitted that he took illegal monies from BMF members. You know he had to tell who those members were and give details about his dealings with them.

He plead guilty to providing false documents and false statements. If he's a snitch so is Lil' Kim breh. Show me the receipts where he named names. Nobody got convicted cause of Jacob. Meanwhile Diddy's cousin was doing his best

impression to the Feds

Facing 20 years on they money laundering, you think he didn't give a statement against BMF to get that dropped.

He paid 4 milly breh, and bent over for the Feds, that was probably good enough for those fakkits. Again, I ain't saying you lyin', I'm saying show me the receipts. Pleading to a perjury charge is not the same as snitching. And if I had to guess, the Feds probably didn't have that strong a case against him, which is why they took the money and the small charge. Money laundering from 3rd parties is hard to prove. That's like convicting a banker or a home seller for accepting large amounts of cash. Sure of course they know something isn't right, but they themselves aren't laundering the criminal proceeds. So Feds was probably like just admit you did and take 2 years and pay 4 milly (probably chump change in regards to what he made), or we could do this the hard way and you could be doin' a 10-20 in Supermax under the alias Jacobess , and he took option 1
