Change is inevitable...
Basically.I agree. It seems like that would have kept this whole mess from happening. Especially in Manhattan. It's not like other places where those guys who were denied entry can just post up in the outdoor parking lot and still get it popping. You'd be a fool to chill outside of Irving Plaza for several hours with a strap on you.
Breh I've met up with the homies after Jada shows....50 shows...all kinds of shows...nothing ever went down. And I'm talking Prime 50 in like 2003 and 2004 and shyt when he legit had whole hoods wanting to get at him.
I been to Sigel and Freeway shows in Philly and nothing happend. Nada.
At most it might be people who were in the audience AT the shows who got their kicks stepped on or felt disrespected or some other "nikka moment" type shyt that happens but never popping off and shooting and shyt.
I'm not saying it's NEVER happened but shyt man I been going to shows for YEARS now and never an incident
I think the biggest thing that ever popped off was when I was at Rock the Bells like 5 or 6 years ago when Wu and Snoop headlined and after the show people were fighting when we were trying to get back on the ferries to go back to Manhattan but that's more because people were tired and it was hot. shyt had nothing to do with "hip hop" per se.
