Chief Keef is getting some tough love from his hometown as reports claim Chicago police are punishing anyone caught putting up promotional posters for the overnight hip-hop star’s upcoming Finally Rich album.
Reports Sohh:
Chicago Police Union Vice President Daniel Gorman said the posters are a direct shot at the men and women who put their lives on the line.
Chicago Police plan to cite whoever is putting up posters on public property in the Englewood area promoting the 17-year-old’s new album, the Chicago Sun-Times reported. Chicago Police union Vice President Daniel Gorman told the newspaper that Chief Keef — whose real name is Keith Cozart — is being “hailed as a hero,” and called the posters a “smack in the face” to the officers in the area.

Keef’s camp has already come forward and lashed back at the Chicago police’s stance.
Rovan “Dro” Manuel, Keef’s manager, said the posters aren’t meant as a “smack in the face” and that Keef has nothing to do with them. “I don’t think it’s fair,” he said. “If they [don't] do that with Britney Spears, Madonna, the Goo Goo Dolls, why do they have to do that to us?” Manuel said he’s long been in the practice of Guerrilla marketing for several companies, which has included hanging promotional posters. While he said he’s heard of citations being handed out for the practice, he said Gorman’s comments seem “personal.” (Red Eye Chicago)
The rapper’s manager also claimed local authorities are using Keef as their scapegoat.
“I think they’re targeting Chief Keef a little bit for more reasons than one,” he said. “He’s a spokesperson for Englewood, they had problems way before Chief Keef. When something bad happens they want to put it all on him.” Manuel insisted Keef, whose real name is Keith Cozart, had nothing to do with the posters. “He isn’t thinking about that, he’s thinking about having fun and making good records,” he said.

And now…
This is EbenGregory.com…telling you the CPD is actually helping his promotion. Think about it.
Those pants hanging below his waistline don’t look cool.
Pause Moment aside, from a certain angle it looks like dude shit himself, which makes it even worse. On a personal note coming from the Chi, the town that gave the world Common, Kanye , Lupe, has to lay claim to this dude as the the next big thing? Double face-palm on that.
At least Ye put on a skirt to erase all doubt.
Lol.
Pictures of his behind in boxers? Man listen.. that’s advertisment for convicts. And people wonder why the music industry is plagued with homosexual rumors? As a woman let me state for the record, seeing a man’s underwear whilst his skinny jeans sagging, screams “I’m gay.. I’m a homo. I like guys.” It’s not attractive, it’s far from sexy.
Firstly, I don’t know too many gay people who sag their pants.
Secondly, although you may not like the style, to assume someone’s gay based on a youth trend is just ignorance on your part. Millions of young boys sag their skinny jeans. And they’ve all heard this same dumb assumption of yours. Apparently they still don’t give a shit what you think. Do you really believe every single one of them are announcing to the world that they’re in the mood for assfucking? Really? Is that what Chief Keef is saying? Or are you just trying to spread this constantly repeated and ineffective homophobic propaganda to end a trend you find unattractive?
And furthermore, if they were gay, why should they care if a woman finds it unattractive?
Check the origin of the sagging pants “style.” It would have saved you from all of those sentences.
Check the evolution of the trend (like what hip hop culture was wearing in the 90s–saggy jeans), and you could’ve saved yourself that pathetically irrelevant response to “all those sentences.”
The reason should be cause he got his a$$ out….period….dat’s not cute and he wanna call other ppl gay but u takin’ pics wit ya a$$ out???? Smh the police hate him so much they can’t even make the right claim lol…should be indescent exposure clearly smhnlol…..lol @ his manager for that good music comment smh *dead*
Still on the plantation in chains….and don’t even know it.
Word!
they took the shackles off our feet and put them on our brains
Nah.. there are some of us think it’s cool to repurpose the “whips and chains”, in the name of looking cool (or keeping it real at the end of the day).. but are still trapped. The point is, it’s a choice to be a slave nowadays. Kind of like in the movie White Men Can’t Jump, there are some of us that would rather look (and be) cool and LOSE….
