NBA Baller Sebastian Telfair Connected to Fabolous Shooting?

The NYPD is investigating whether 21-year-old Brooklyn-born baller Sebastian Telfair has something to do with the recent shooting of Fabolous. Sources say that the Boston Celtics guard was outside Diddy’s restaurant the same night of the Fabolous shooting. Telfair had a $50,000 chain snatched from his neck, and he was seen making a phone call shortly thereafter.

New York’s boys in blue are trying to determine if there is a connection between the robbery and the shooting. Telfair was shown
lineups that included Fabolous, but he didn’t point the finger at any suspects. This isn’t the first time the young baller has run into
trouble, last year he “accidentally” brought a loaded handgun on board his team’s jet, but he escaped charges.

Fabolous Shot, then Arrested

Brooklyn rapper Fabolous was shot AND arrested today after enjoying a meal at Diddy’s restaurant in Manhattan. Fab and 3 of his boys had just left Puff’s restaurant (no, not Burger King) when they were rushed by a lone gunman, who shot the rapper in the thigh and then ran away.

Now, what is the proper course of action for a rapper who’s just been shot? Do you call for an ambulance? Hell no, if you’re Fabolous, you and your crew hop in the whip (an ‘05 Dodge Charger) and run a red light! After this, the police pull you over and discover two semi-auto pistols! Of course, the guns were unlicensed, and all four passengers were taken to jail. At least the cops were nice enough to let Fab go to Bellevue for treatment after placing him under arrest.

Look for Fab to star in a public service announcement reminding the kids to dial 911. Or perhaps Dodge will make him their latest hip-hop spokesman.

Puff Daddy, er, P.Diddy Earns his Crown

Sean Combs, the Rapper/Dancer/Wannabe Actor and Sampler Extraordinaire who reminds us to “call him Diddy,” might not be a hip-hop king like Nas or Jay-Z, but he’s earned a crown of another sort. The mogul has agreed to be a spokesman for Burger King! The company will also be sponsoring his tour in support of his new album Press Play. It’s been nearly a decade since the passing of Puffy’s, oops I mean Diddy’s, best friend Biggie Smalls. Come on now Diddy, everyone wants to pay their tribute to Big, some rappers like Shyne want to sound like Big, but do we also wanna have waistlines like Big? Thanks to you Diddy, when we put our lighters up in tribute, we’ll also be thinking of that flame-broiled goodness that’s served our way!
