Busta busted

Busta Rhymes was arraigned yesterday on an assault charge stemming from an incident in which he reportedly attacked a man for spitting on his car, reports Newsday's Jennifer Smith. Rhymes, a Brooklyn-born rapper who grew up in Uniondale and rose to prominence in the Long Island hip-hop scene, was arrested Saturday night after performing at the AmsterJam Music Festival on Randalls Island.

And maybe the tangle with the po-po affected Busta's AmsterJam performance, which Ira Robbins called "rough and crude." (Full review)

Not sure i've ever seen po-po written out before. it's quite amusing.

Ira Robbins' review was terrible. How can you profusely praise a Reggaeton act and then criticize the Foo Fighters for not being melodic, a criticism that makes no sense anyway since the Foos are a pop-rock band heavy on melody?

When exactly did Metallica have a "fascist undertow" anyway, and when has anyone ever compared the Foo Fighters to Metallica with a straight face? Next thing you know she'll be comparing Busta Rhymes to Johan Sebastian Bach (the classical composer not the guy from Skid Row).
