    Why is Jezebel reporting on a lame, no-name, local rapper shooting someone equally insignificant and not about the black teenager who was raped by his white teammates?

    How is this relevant to Jezebel readers? Do any Jezzies even know who these rappers are besides T.I.?

      I don’t think it should be either or as celebrity news is the main focus of this site (for better or worse), but this story definitely needs to be brought to light. Utterly horrifying.

      Jezebel does have a tips email. it Maybe a direct email would be the best way to contact them. Also, Jezebel does publish more than one post a day, the day is still young anything could happen :

    So the guy shot himself in the leg and his own bodyguard? What a complete and total waste.

      My question is, why’d this guy choose “Troy Ave” as a rap moniker when his real name is Edgar McPhatter??

        No, that’s the deceased’s name. Troy Ave’s name is Roland Collins.

      If you are carrying your own gun, then why do you need to pay a bodyguard? Isn’t that a waste of money? Or if you are paying your junior high school friend to be your bodyguard, then why can’t he be the one carrying the gun?

        Not sure thinking things through was a strong personality trait here.
