according to SoHH, the mighty Mos Def was arrested thursday night in New York. his crime? trying to give heads a free rap show: Mos pulled up outside the MTV Video Music Awards in a flat-bed truck around 10 pm and gave an impromptu show to the audience gathered there.The Brooklyn bred rapper reportedly performed his song "Katrina Clap," which attacks President George W. Bush's administration's slow response to Hurricane Katrina, before NYPD officers told him and his entourage to pull the plug and began making arrests.
Mos Def's publicist Carleen Donovan had this to
say: "Mos Def was not out to break any laws. His only goal was to heighten the awareness of a serious situation that still exists in our country," Donovan explained via a statement. "He does not want people to forget that although its one year later, the people and cities hit by the hurricane still need the help of the American people."this goes under the category of "don't New York cops have anything better to do..?" apparently not... again, you can peep the article in its entirety on Sohh...
