    Does a very good job of laying out the nature of the NYC special narcotics prosecutors' investigation of Shmurda and his friend; also gives some insight into what Shmurda is like, and what dynamic he had with his friends, as well as his early experiences in the industry. Inb4 Charlie says something boneheaded and racist.

    Rip Bobby's career, all his co-conspirators catching double digits

    Another interesting point from the piece: the writer's law enforcement sources say that even they are uncomfortable with how liberally some big-city police and justice systems are applying conspiracy laws to try groups of (black) people together.

    This article makes this s--- sound sad man, if only Bobby had left NY he might've been able to have a better case for himself

    The article paints a complex sympathetic picture but ...

    It's clear there was "g---" affiliation and he was still active on some level in street s--- even if he was on his way out.

    There's conversations to be had on semantics concerning the word "g---" which the article attempts to use to discredit the case against him but it seems obvious even in this piece he was still involved in street s--- with a group of individuals who have bodied people and were still active.

    Read this yesterday, really didn't know extent of Bobbys situation until now

    It seems like Bobby and his group were targeted from the jump and he really just wasn't given enough time to transition into his newfound fame. Especially if he was being pressured by crips in ny

    Read a bit of it. But bottom line is, wheather he did anything wrong or not he associated himself with lifestyle and hes gotta face whatever happens. Plus he can do his famous little dance to pay his lawyer fees when he gets out.
