Forth Worth, Texas-based rapper Twisted Black was recently sentenced to life in prison, according to a statement on the artist’s webpage. The 35-year-old rapper, whose real name is Tommy Burns, was found guilty of conspiracy to sell crack cocaine in a US District court after being arrested by DEA authorities back in July of this year. According to the Midland Reporter-Telegram, the government’s case was built on the testimony of Courtney Iglehart, who claimed that he met Black at a Fort Worth recording studio and paid him $4,500 for a quarter kilogram of powder cocaine in February 2005. Iglehart is already serving a 10-year sentence for selling crack, and much of the defense’s strategy related to questioning the credibility of the trial’s key witnesses.
Shortly after Black’s initial arrest, it was announced that he had signed a new solo deal with indie powerhouse label TVT Records. Black first gained fame as a member of ’90s rap duo One Gud Cid, releasing two independent albums to moderate regional success and even briefly signing a deal with Suave House/Universal. Black’s solo debut Late Bloomer was released in 2003 and his latest, The Life Of Tommy Burns, was released last year.

I got a cousin in prison for 10 years for having some having weed in her house. They give rapist like 16 years and they can get out after 6 then they can do it again and all they have to do is finish they 10 years they had left. Man that’s some bullshit!

They let you sell it for years. Watch you. Tape you. Record you… then when it’s election time, they bust your ass and stand smiling on the front page of the paper! Come on Black Men!!!! We got to be smarter.
We also have to stop being in a black mans corner just because he is a black man. Wrong is wrong! Stupid is stupid!!! White, Black, Green or Yellow!!!!!

To Twisted as well as all the other young black men. grow up, get a job and stop helping the white man pull you down. If you never start selling drugs then you wouldn’t have to worry about these type of things because you would never end up in this situation. I know that everyone is not meant to be a college graduate but there are decent jobs that you can get without that. I’m sure you’re leaving behind either a wife or girlfriend and maybe a couple of kids. Who’s going to take care of them? The system? Which ends up being the hard working people who go to work everyday just to make ends meet. I hope you appeal your case and win but I also hope that you have learned your lesson from this. Fast money is not always the best money. Keep your head up!!!!!

Nothing is wrong with this black person. I did not once say he did no wrong, but life for a conspiracy charge, which was determined by a jail house snitch testimony? One thing a bigot hates is a black man flashy with money, so he had to be used as an example. Sentencing for minorities is disproportionate relative to whites. Black people have a right to blame the government considering its previous track record. “I HAVE A RIGHT TO BE HOSTILE MY PEOPLE BEING PERSECUTED!” Prof Griff of Public Enemy

5th of all- dont judge tha book by its cover, b/c just like those white folk shoot tha Black man 50 times in NY, and tha same way they kill that Black teenager in FL, and just like they shoot someones Black Grandma to death in ATL. White Folks can get away with anythang and Black people needs to stand up for whats right, then just going with tha hype.. B/c they been doing tis shit for years.. Remember Dr Martin L.

sentencing is in Feb. to tha real Black People.. 5 snitches, no dope, no tapping, two wires of money (600.00, other 800.00), two phone calls and conspiracy to sell over 500 grams of crack rock.. U be tha jury or judge.. Dudes an artist and have preform two shows down in Miland for one of his artist (Young Thousand) birthday party and other off club promoter.. and never came back.. 2 years later after making Hustle or Go Broke(mixtape) that sold over 10.000 copy nation wide (w/o an major) and u get lock for life (could be after Feb.) and none of tha snitch no him, and admit they was trying to get less time to save there on ass. Is not right. They dont lock up people for making murder movies, making bombs on tha internet, how to break in cars or make crack online, kkk membership - and we know they have guns to start a war, someone who written a book on how to kill others with a bomb or how to get away with murders. Are never charge and never will be, due to Freedom of speech.. But if ur Black its always different. even when we have black people having sex in a movies.(its to Sexy) but they have Sex in tha City(its nothing but wives having sex), its all wrong and u(black people) will pay it.. i never seen Black with crack and we made show money from city to city. But i do know a total of 1400.00 dollars in street money doesnt add up to 500 grams of crack..Its not that much love in USA… U be tha Judge or Jury..

AINT NO KING….hmm, yeah thats the name of one of his songs. This was his 3rd strike. He knew what would happen. He had a good thing going and record deal about to go down BUT he didn’t want to quit the dope game. NOT SMART! There is no doubt he is THE REAL DEAL and I KNOW he had everthing coming for his rap game BUT HE KNEW BETTER and thats WHAT HAPPENS. BLACK, WHITE, SPANISH….you sell dope, once, twice and THREE times YOUR going to get a life sentence!! END OF STORY! PERIOD!

Is it the system or is it us says:
I’m noticing that a lot of peeps here are talking about how the “system” is holding them down. While I do agree that the “system” does hold one down, it’s not the system that is actually doing it versus the fact that today’s black man would rather ride around in a flashy car with big rims, fake ass “platinum” and clothes that he cannot afford. What we need is the black man to realize that a TRUE thug is a man with street sense along with a strong education to back that up. This is the “thug” I’d like to be. So when the system comes and try’s it’s hand on me, I KNOW what they can do. I earned my money legaly and paid my taxes, and STILL drive my Escalade, with the big rims, REAL money, not this B.S. you see in the videos. Who cares about talkin about money and showing ONE one hundred dollar bill filled in with 50 one dollar bills, I’m talkin showin up somewhere with a credit card that actually works, learing decent grammar so when I open my mouth that mofo on the other side isn’t the only one with big words in his arsenal and a degree on his side, and being a real role model to the youngsters that we are failing. When I was younger I remmeber a joke saying what is the easiest way to silence a black man? Give him either a basketball, a ho, or some drugs and a street corner. It’s past time brothers and sisters to stop the geoncide that we are doing to ourselves and get educated, stop selling drugs to our own, hell if you can’t stand on a white man’s corner and sell your stuff then you ain’t real anyway. Get real people where were these so called rappers BEFORE katrina? Where were WE as Black people BEFORE katrina? Where are we as a race AFTER Katrina? Think about it. We’re no better now than we were before.

To “from funkytown w/ luv” & “Is it the system or is it us” Thank you for giving me as a black women faith that there ARE some real and intelligent black men still populating and influencing this world. Twisted Black has skills that you don’t EVER hear these days! It’s too bad that many still are unaware. Be blessed!

Best in the D says:
First off, FUCK RAT BASTARDS! Second, I respect what y’all saying about having a legit hustle, but that ain’t the issue. The fact is that Black got screwed over by a judge. Not the 1st brotha this will happen to, and won’t be the last. That’s the real issue. Hustler’s know the risks of being in the game. They ready for the consequences of their actions. But the punishment has to fit the crime. Life for a quarter key??? BE FOR FUCKING REAL!!!! And all this is based on a rat’s testimony. Face the facts….we ain’t been on a even playing field for the last 400 years in this country. Read this carefully…THE SYSTEM IS DESIGNED FOR BLACK MEN TO FAIL!!!!! For any black folk who don’t believe this, y’all need to wake the fuck up. Don’t let them pull the wool over your eyes. Don’t get the real issue twisted black…..the homie got screwed by the system.
