yayo1.jpgThe Queens, NY District Attorney’s office recently announced the arrest of Lowell “Lodi Mack” Fletcher, a self proclaimed member of 50 Cent’s G-Unit crew, during a massive drug sweep in the Far Rockaway section of Queens. According to the DA’s office, Lowell was a lieutenant in a local faction of the Bloods street gang that ran a large-scale, multi-county narcotics trafficking operation. Authorities claim the gang brought in as much as $15,000 per week from their distribution of narcotics throughout Queens and surrounding areas. A total of 34 alleged Bloods gang members and their associates were also nabbed in the sweep, including Robert “Dead Eye” Baley, an aspiring rapper and purported leader of the crew. In May, Fletcher was charged with menacing, endangering the welfare of a child and assault in connection with the alleged assault by Tony Yayo of G-Unit rival Jimmy “Henchmen” Rosemond’s 14 year-old son. According to police reports, Fletcher stands accused of flashing a handgun at the boy. Yayo, who was also charged in the incident, and claims he has a witness who can clear his name, is due back in court on October 30.

    Really? your bringin in money like they do in G-unit and your playin on the corner for 15k a week? split with 30 or so other dudes? I know 50′s not like MC Hammer, but he can find u somethin to do, especially if your a “self proclaimed” member.

  • Nate

    I get money- but the narcs- they take it from me!

  • nate

    Yayo’s album was much better than expected.
    Much better than Sheek if you wanna compare his role to someone else of similar rank.

    Yayo just makes stupid decisions- like a lot of dudes with that background. You can’t say he’s not real- just kinda stupid.

  • eCStAzzy

    On that Pepsi Smash G-Unit Freestyle ,Tony Yayo mentions “Lodi Mack” in his verse,I think he is more then “self proclaimed member of G-Unit”, they be doin some dirt there.

  • Peru

  • Jason Murk

    50 is damn near a billionaire, and he got niggas on his label selling CRACK.

  • mike

    The real shit is that this is the kid who is also accused of threatening Mr.Hammonds 14 year old son. He the head of a bloods faction? Threatening lil young boys? 15,000 a week ain’t shit if you all up under the feds scope. Curtis is doing alot of pimpin right now, honestly you boys reppin colors should be all in his ass right now, yall keep holding him down, and still got to sell crack if you want to. And his man Smurf, is not affiliated with bloods. Curtis you are so pussy. Plus he run with the police, you boys just don’t know what yall donig fuckin with a fake ass niggah like Curtis. So what he got money, niggahs still gonna catch bids.

    1st of all, Yayo had nothing to do with this incident. If he did, he would’ve been arrested also.

    2nd of all, $15,000/ week is like $780,000 a year so they are getting money

    3rd of all, 50 Cent might know these dudes and may even associate with these niggas, but they are not signed to the unit, just in the entourage. You can’t control what niggas who hand around do, they grown men and make their own decisions.

  • http://www.hip-hopkings.com Stuart Hallick

    Why do rappers always gotta cause trouble damn?
    Need to stay clear for at least a while!

  • Philly4Pres

    okay, first….affiliates…aint got nuttin to do wit fif, dude knows cuz from tha streets, this dirt doesnt stick to fif, aint got nuttin to do with him, its an affilate of yayo, zoe pound and all them are conected to the unit, like it was said b4, its there street team, anyone that makes ridiculous comments like 50s a snitch and all this is blind sited on whats really goin on, if you really from tha streets, you gonna have people who know you from tha streets, best way to handle biz is keep these dudes close, not enuff for you to get caught up in shit but enuff so that your creditable, thats all it is……get money…why you think aint no one can get at fif…..streets nigga

  • Jason Murk

    Yeah, those niggas are 50′s and Yayo’s peeps. But 50 is damn near a billionaire and he owns MULTIPLE businesses. He could have found legitimate employment for his niggas instantly.

    Instead, he leaves em out on the street selling crack. And the article says they only brought in $15,000 a week… divide that among the 34 gang members and that’s only $441/week per person. That ain’t shit.

    So these niggas were out on the street risking their lives for burger king paychecks. And now all of those niggas are going to jail, adding to the fucked up statistics already associated with black males. 50 and yayo could have got em off the street, but they didn’t want to. Probably because they think it’s cool to still be affiliated with “street niggas.”

    There’s nothing cool about multimillionaires rapping about selling crack, and there’s nothing cool about wealthy niggas doing absolutely nothing to help out the struggling black man.

    So yes, it is fucking disgusting.

  • shater

    damn you out of town niggas are some hating fools.first off these niggas are affliated period.these are street niggas they stay in the streets.u want 50 to give them jobs?lol
    do they have a degree?and alot ot niggas he already got working for him.this niggas cant employ the entire queens damn.yayo have friends in brooklyn too all in bedstuy, but them niggas are hustlers and who can change that.the fact is these niggas in the hood and do what they do.they might only get 15k allegedly but i bet they driveing big cars and living good.if yall read and stopped hating you would see that “dead eye” has a upcomin label, yall already know fox has dumout records.niggas please do research b4 dumb comments.i live 20 minute from far rock and 10 minutes form southside.
