JR Writer stopped by VladTV to talk about doing time in prison, not snitching on the people who put him in jail, and his rap career including his diss record towards Cam'ron, Jim Jones, and Dame Dash. JR explained to Vlad that the reason he went to prison had to do with him associating himself with the wrong people. "Honestly to keep it funky with you, you know me f**cking with certain n***as put me in that predicament not knowing, me really not thinking cause I can't even put the blame on anybody else all the way like I gotta take some of the blame." Writer explained him doing time in prison surprisingly helped him, and he even called the bid a blessing. He also explained that he could have walked away from the charge if he would have told on the people who actually committed the crime, but instead Writer wanted to go to trial because he felt didn't do anything wrong. "Once I seen how real it could get in Manhattan Court, I said you know what, what they offering, and it was too late by then, I just had to take whatever was on the table from the jump which was two years." Writer eventually accepted his fate, but not before considering running away to the Dominican Republic. "I was ready to go to DR, and my moms was with it... but my n**gas was telling me naw just chill.... but honestly I didn't wanna do a day."
Writer also expressed that he was confident when his case began due to his high profile lawyer Scott Leemon, whom he found by googling, "Who is P. Diddy's lawyer?" but he made the ultimate decision not to go to trial. Vlad and Writer also discussed how being in the rap game and being involved in the court system is tough because snitching is not taken lightly in the hip-hop community. Vlad asked Writer if the people he took the bid for helped him out while he was in prison, and although he said they attempted to, he didn't want their help.
JR Writer mentioned he did a freestyle for Worldstar Hip-Hop over the phone while in prison, and the conversation about him taking shots at Cam'ron, Jim Jones, and Dame Dash came up. "Honestly at the time man I was in my feelings, I was blaming everybody else, cause they definitely wasn't the reason why I was in the situation. But I felt like at the time... I was already mad I was doing time, and I felt like no one was setting me out, or looking out for me..." Writer says he knows he should have gone about that a different way but everything is good now.

Video After The Jump
MARKSVILLE, La. (AP) — After a police body camera captured two deputy city marshals firing on a car and killing a 6-year-old boy, the head of the Louisiana State Police said the video was the most disturbing thing he's seen.
Nearly a year later, the public is getting its first look at the graphic footage.
The state judge presiding over the murder cases against the two deputies allowed reporters to make copies of the tape Wednesday after a hearing where it was formally introduced as evidence.
Prosecutors and defense attorneys previously described in writing how the footage depicts the shooting, which stops less than a minute into the video. The rest of the nearly 14 minutes of footage shows the stomach-churning aftermath, as the officer with the body camera checks on the lifeless body of Jeremy Mardis while his critically wounded father, Christopher Few, lies bleeding on the pavement.

Prosecutors showed the tape in court Wednesday to support their claim that one of the deputies, Derrick Stafford, had a pattern of using excessive force — including last November's fatal shooting of Jeremy Mardis in Marksville.
Matthew Derbes, a prosecutor from Attorney General Jeff Landry's office, said Stafford's pattern of hurting people he's arresting also provides a motive for shooting at Few while his hands are raised.
"Motive is something the jury wants to hear," Derbes said. "Why would they do this?"
Defense attorneys for Stafford and Norris Greenhouse Jr. argue the deputies acted in self-defense. They claim Few drove recklessly while leading officers on a two-mile chase and then rammed into Greenhouse's vehicle as he was exiting it, before he and Stafford opened fire.
Derrick Stafford, 32, (left) and Norris Greenhouse Jr, 23, (right) await separate trials on second-degree murder and attempted second-degree murder charges
"Christopher Few was a suspect before they knew that child was in the car," said Christopher LaCour, one of Stafford's attorneys.
While the video doesn't capture the entire pursuit, state District Court Judge William Bennett noted that the footage doesn't show Few's car posing a threat to the officers as they fired.
"That car was not being used as a deadly weapon at that time," Bennett said. "I daresay it was not even close to being used as a deadly weapon at that time."
The video from the body camera worn by Marksville Police Sgt. Kenneth Parnell III lacks audio for the first 27 seconds. The deputies began shooting before the audio begins.
Prosecutors say the video shows the deputies firing from a safe distance from Few's car. Stafford's attorneys, however, argue the 27-second-long segment without audio makes it impossible to determine if he started shooting before or after Few raised his hands inside the car.
After the shooting and sirens stop, somebody yells at Few to show his hands. Few was slumped over the blood-stained door on the driver's side of his car when officers approach him.
"Is he hit at all?" Stafford later asked Parnell.
"Who?" Parnell replied.
"The driver," Stafford said
"Yeah," Parnell responded.
"I never saw a kid in the car, man," Stafford said. "I never saw a kid, bro."
About seven minutes after the shooting, Parnell opened the passenger door to Few's car, shone a flashlight onto Mardis, nudged his right shoulder and checked for a pulse. Then he walked over to another officer and said he found a faint pulse on the boy.
Donning surgical gloves, Parnell walked back to the boy's side of the car and shone a light on the boy again.
"Oh, my God," he muttered.
Several minutes later, a paramedic told Parnell the boy was dead.
Defense attorneys have suggested investigators rushed to judgment. George Higgins, one of Greenhouse's attorneys, said investigators have no evidence that any of the bullets fired by Greenhouse struck Few or his son.
Higgins asked State Police detective Rodney Owens during Wednesday's hearing why the deputies were arrested before obtaining results of ballistics tests.
"You didn't know that Mr. Greenhouse did not shoot anybody when you arrested him?" Higgins said.
Owens acknowledged that he didn't. But investigators later traced 14 shell casings to Stafford's semi-automatic handgun and determined four other shell casings recovered at the scene came from Greenhouse's gun. Of the four bullet fragments recovered from the boy's body, three matched Stafford's weapon and another couldn't be matched to either deputy.
Owens also testified that there isn't any physical evidence that Few's car collided with Greenhouse's vehicle, but he couldn't rule that out as a possibility.
Stafford and Greenhouse await separate trials on second-degree murder and attempted second-degree murder charges.
Stafford, a Marksville police lieutenant, and Greenhouse, a former Marksville police officer, were moonlighting as deputy marshals on the night of the Nov. 3, 2015, shooting.
Stafford's trial is scheduled to start Nov. 28; Greenhouse has a March 13, 2017, trial date. Bennett refused Wednesday to consolidate the cases for a single trial.
State Police Col. Mike Edmonson cited the video when he announced the arrest of the two officers on Nov. 6.

A Danish songwriter is taking Fetty Wap to court for allegedly not clearing the sample used in his song "Trap Queen."
TMZ reports that Lazar Lakic filed a lawsuit against Fetty and "Trap Queen's" producer Tony Fadd. He claims Fadd sold him exclusive rights to the "Hello" track used in the hit record.
In January of 2015, Fadd attempted to buy it back, but Lakic declined.
Lakic is asking for a share of the profits from the multi-platinum selling record, a halt to it's sales and wants all copies using the "Hello" sample destroyed.
Fetty's attorney, Navarro Gray, told TMZ that his client legally purchased the track from Fadd. Gray added that if Lakic wins his lawsuit, he will take Fadd to court to recoup whatever damages the Danish producer is awarded.

Taxstone welcomed Beanie Sigel for an interview on the latest episode of his Tax Season podcast..
The Broad Street Bully had quite a lot to talk about as he addressed the Meek Mill vs. Drake beef, recently getting knocked out backstage at the Bad Boy Reunion concert in Philadelphia by Dreamchasers affiliate, Teefy Bey and much more.
Check out Beans' theory on why Meek Mill started the beef with Drizzy.
"Drake don't gotta live by the rules we live by, or you claim to live by. He's not a street nigga. He's not from the streets. So, he don't gotta live by that code," Beanie said. "You can't look at that man in a different light 'cause he got armed security or whoever he got. He's the fucking biggest thing in music, nigga. A pop star. Who cares if he not writing that shit? That nigga saying some shit, i don't give a fuck. It's not taking away from your money or none of that. So, what's the real reason why you mad? What's the reason reason why you was mad at Drake? In my point of view. you was laying in the bed one night. You rolled over and you looked at (Nicki Minaj). And you asked her, 'You fucked that nigga?' And she ain't answer you the way you wanted her to."
Well, Cot Damn!!!

Young Thug sparked a lot of conversations on social media when he decided to wear a dress on the cover of his "No, My Name Is Jeffery" mixtape, which was released in August.
Chicago rapper Lil Bibby chopped it up with DJ Smallz recently and was asked to give his opinion on it.
"What that man do is that man's business," Bibby said. "That's his business, that's how he feel. I wouldn't do it, but big ups to him. I just wouldn't feel right doing it. I guess he got the courage to do that. To have people look at him and say all the stuff that say about him. Whatever he doing, it looks like it's working. The people is always talking about him. That shit went viral, it's everywhere. If people talking about you ... good or bad, it's good. It's working, he's making a ton of money. I don't knock nobody hustle."

The Game vs Meek Mill beef continues to expand beyond the two emcees to involve more people.
Individuals that have been drawn into the conflict include Dreamchasers affiliates Teefy Bey, Takbar and Omelly. As well as Beanie Sigel, Game's manager Wack 100 and now Brooklyn, New York native Maino.
If you're wondering how Maino became a part of this narrative, it has to do with the filming of Game's newly released Meek Mill diss video titled "Pest Control," which features some scenes that were shot in Brooklyn.
Maino objected to his borough being involved and responded by posting a photo of himself in Bed-Stuy that was captioned, "Not Here."
A phone conversation was arranged between Wack and Maino to clear the air. However, there was some sort of miscommunication afterwards that led to Wack challenging the "All of the Above" hit maker to a fight on Tuesday, September 27.
"@mainohustlehard when they figure out your playing both sides my nigga your going to be in #IT," Wack captioned an Instagram photo. "Remember it wasn't just me on the phone. it was me you another nigga and a recording ..... I hope your not running around playing like you was aggressive!!! I say this with no disrespect all gangsta shit. Me & You gona run that fade as soon as I touch back. We know and I'm letting ya man know so they know you was real nice and spoke again a Phili nigga having any say so in #NY .... I'll have my #Brooklynteam line it up and I'll pull up ... No beef just a reconing.... The nigga that gave you that buck Fifty still running around Brooklyn my nigga this we all know."
Maino quickly accepted the challenge. In doing so, he questioned why Wack went to Instagram when he could have called him on the phone.
“first off I Never spoke down on u to NOBODY!!! My perspective is the same as it always been. Same as I told u! I felt that niggas in my own Borrough was acting like Hoes to be in a video about a beef that had Nothing to do wit them or Brooklyn," Maino responded. "I told u that as I told some of the same people that was in the video the same thing. NEVER ever changed my tone. I was clear and if anybody else told u something different it is a Flat out lie. Me and u had conversation as MEN. Period. However, I can’t understand how if u heard something u didn’t reach out to me the same way. How GANGSTA is typing on Instagram when u know I’m reachable. My brother u can have every and anything u looking for. If u allow people to bleach ur Dome wit rhetoric then so be it. U can get ur fade, Caesar, flat top or baldy. Lmao u gotta be kidding me, ur man got my #…: im starting to really wonder about u brother. Ur Gangsta antics on social media looking questionable. But it’s always wuteva wit me. I’ll be ur Hucklberry brother. Somebody lied to u jack, and if u really wanted to get down to it u could’ve spoken to me and we could’ve solved it. But now u speaking on things u don’t know of. The homie that cut me IS NOT walking around Brooklyn. And nor has he ever been. Ain’t a nigga in this freeWorld done anything to me without Retribution homie. I’m around Gangsta. And please no more typing homie. I think at this point we both clear”
There was more communication between the two, which you can read below.
Thoughts?
