Police in Camden, NJ are objecting a scheduled appearance by producer Swizz Beatz at the city’s “Peace on the Streets” rally planned for tomorrow (July 26). According to the Associated Press, authorities are up in arms over the anti-snitching message they believe Swizzy is promoting through his music. The renowned producer’s single, “It’s Me Snitches,” has been burning up the airwaves in the tri-state area, but some critics have questioned its perceived message. The Camden Police want Swizz to renounce his anti-snitching comments because they feel he is promoting a policy that encourages citizens to avoid cooperation with authorities. Camden city officials say they have been assured that Swizz will not be rapping about violence or promoting any negative messages, and that the two songs he’s scheduled to perform will carry positive messages.

these posts are racist says:
Want to end anti-snitching sentiment? End police brutality. End the policy of harassing people to get information on someone else. End the policy of scaring people into giving you information. End fabricating and planting evidence on people. There’s history and context to everything folks.

The actual title of this cut is, “It’s me Bitches.” For the police in Camden, NJ it should be, “It’s me, dumb-ass.”

I agree wit dude wit the 1st comment. Swizz is nice, don’t hate, you all have bumped Ruff Ryders music at some point in your life. It’s Me “Snitches” is just the edited word for the track. Everyone knows he says It’s Me “Bitches” on the dirty cut. Bizzle, get a life and stop double postin u dick! They fckin wit him cause they messin wit everyone who was around Busta on the video shoot where my man got shot. Busta, Yayo and now Swizz. Finding a pattern here?

Get over it, the po-lice don’t like nothing to do with hip-hop. It’s a peace rally Swizz would bring out more people out to hear the peace message, isn’t that the point to spread the word. When these people see an hear there peer talk about or being associated with peace why would that be bad. The song they hear on the radio is a clean version, do your homework before you open your mouth. Like momma said if you assume you make an ass out of u an me. Stay TUNED2IT
