Although it’s been months since Brooklyn, New York rapper Bobby Shmurda signed to Epic Records, a new video has surfaced showing the Shmoney Dance creator dancing in front of L.A. Reid and a room full of Epic Records executives following his signing in July.
According to EbenGregory.com, the video of Shmurda was uploaded to WorldStarHipHop.com.
In the video, which appears to be shot from a cell phone, the New York City wordsmith dances along to his record, “Hot Nigga.” He then raps along to GS9’s “Computers” while pacing the room.
At one point in the video, Shmurda even hops on top of the conference room table during his performance. The audience does applaud at the end of the rapper’s performance, but appeared unresponsive throughout his performance, which lasted a little over five minutes.
The release of the video comes shortly after Shmurda aired out Epic Records via Instagram. In the now-deleted post, he added the following caption, according to AllHipHop.com:
“Nah idgaf I’m doing all theses show not getting ma money dey got me doing shit every fucking day so its hard to keep up Witt dis shit den I ain’t got nobody to trust ain’t no help in dis bitch I’m ready to go back to da trap be4 jail #RNS dats how I feel foh.”
Shmurda will reportedly release his first project as an artist signed to Epic Records on November 10. Titled Shmurda She Wrote, the project will consist of five tracks.

LOL so many confused white people
This is how you know he got no real talent. His music couldn’t stand on its own he had to shuck and jive to get his deal.
A real nigga would have sat in the chair and let the music speak for itself.
I bet they billed him for scuffing up that table and he ain’t even know it. Half of those looks like interns, no way EPIC has that many execs.
c00ning for whitey
2014 minstrel show
pretty much
Not even close, you do realize a minstrel show is lampooning of blacks by whites in blackface or blacks in blackface. This is an audition for a multimillion dollar contract. We are a capitalist society if you are too black to work for food then you will starve and die.
Modern day minstrel and those white folks looked bored as fuck, dumb nigga if it’s a listening session then sit yo ass down and bob ya head to your music and quit dancing like a damn monkey.
He looked like a black kid doing a parody of a gangster rapper.. Modern day blackface…
When middle age white people think of rap music, this is what they think of…
this is old
shit came out about A WEEK AGO
He should stick to dancing and just put the mic down.
he will have no deal by this time next year, just ask SBOE they got dropped with the quickness after they winslow got summer jammed.
shucking & jiving at its finest (or worse). Like a scene out of Bamboozled, Mantan!. Younging don’t even know no better…..SMH
Dude got signed, and got his money. Fuck all of you haters. Of course he has no lyrical talent, but there is something about him that is infectious. Suppose he did this to introduce his team to what he is all about so that they know how to best promote him? Suppose Waka Flacka, an equally wack lyrical artist was demoing hard in the paint. He would have to be animated to communicate what his brand was.
Let the man enjoy his brief career and have fun, go do something inspirational with your own life.
It’s ignorant behavior. Period.
It’s called acting a like N—–
“Suppose he did this to introduce his team to what he is all about so that they know how to best promote him?”
Did you watch the same thing I did? How does dancing like a c00n help them understand how to promote him? Apparently it ain’t working out as his flash mob was an EPIC failure and he’s complaining about not getting paid.
LA Reid is old, out of touch, and making bad decisions. How’s that Shyne deal working out for him? Shmurda got signed and got his money THAT HE WILL HAVE TO PAY BACK, when his album doesn’t recoup
he was actually whining about not getting his money. the dumb kid didnt realize it has to go through his manager/mom and all that first and that he has to pay taxes
LOL look at that lil nig nog jiving for a room full of white people. i hope they at least gave him a can of soup and a soda for the festivities.
Black folks clowning for white people who will ultimately make millions off of black buffoonery and self-suppresive ignorance.
All the black folks who complain about Trayvon Martin, Ferguson, etc need to comment on this sorry ass behavior. Funny how you never hear a peep out of the black community when it comes to this nonsense or all of the black on black murders that take place each and every day.
Go back to beating off to Fox News ya sheep. You’re leaving all these anonymous comments bitching about black people on this one article.
Would it be considered “shucking and jiving” if it were a room full of white people? what if he was a tap dancer and they asked him to tap dance? they wanted to see how he performs at shows. have you ever seen him before? this is what he does? oh wait, someone would ask why dont they go to one of his shows? well if yay-z asked you to freestyle would you tell him to come to one of your shows? stop thinking too far into this.
“Would it be considered “shucking and jiving” if it were a room full of white people?”
Thats what it was LOL.
It’s shucking and jiving for white folks – nothing else. There are no other comparisons.
I really doubt lipsynching and dancing to your own songs in front of a company poised to pay you millions is shucking and jiving, you are spreading trick knowledge because you are distracted by race.
L.A. Reid is Black, he is in charge, all those “white folks” work for him. And none of yall haters got the balls to get up in a room full of anybody and do anything, thats why yall here, hating
His ‘Music’ is a prime example of the damage that’s caused to poor black kids specifically…
So stupid he doesn’t realize he’s stupid. And it’s not really his fault…
Shame on LA Reid for exploiting and promoting this garbage..
400+ being murdered in Chicago and for the first time it actually is BECAUSE of the Chief Keef’s of the world.
This website is on the that C.P.T.
we’re still monkey to them
To who? Are actors who audition for movies monkeys? Your self imposed racial caste system is trick knowledge buddy.
^^^ actors for movies who audtion don’t shuck and jive and jump on tables to impress a room full of white people. they usually have some type of resume or experience before attending an audition. stop talking like u got some sense idiot actors and monkeys like this have nothing in common.
You’ve been conditioned to think that way. Why do you see it as a room full of white people, when it is a record label and a record label whose CEO is black? Why do you see it as shucking and jiving when he dances the same way in his videos? And actors do not have written resumes they have demo tapes just like rappers.And perform as characters during auditions also not all actors are experienced they gotta start somewhere. It is all the same yet you criticize blacks more harshly because you see blacks as inferior and every action is in competition with whites for their approval or accpetance,its not your fault you been brain fed trick knowledge. You probably think black is the opposite of white.
why would he do this
a million dollar contract, wouldn’t you?
To all of you saying this is modern day slavery need to check your self righteousness because you are spreading trick knowledge. Slavery is the act of being property and forced into labor for free. This untalented dude from the projects is poised to sign a million dollar contract just to lip sync and dance around. This maybe more closely related to prostitution but not at all slavery. In actuality it is simply an audition…you are being distracted by a fake racial consciousness and are being left behind.
million dollar contract…. yeah right! these labels learned a thing or two since trinidad james, kreayshawn and them
If they did then why is he in their office and why did dej loaf just get signed too? They aint learned ish…
the labels learned how to pimp these one hit wonders, milk them for everything they can get then kick them to the curb when the next one comes along
I understan, get your money however, my problem with today’s music is all about Killing, trapping and negative images. I wouldn’t feel comfortable rapping about bullshit in front a room of non Blacks. This is why 90% of our youth think all the dumb shit (killing, ratchetness, my city is harder than yours check our murder rate nigga)is important instead going to college and finishing. Starting a business other than Weave shops and Hot Wings. Can we get some rappers spitting hot Bars over hard beats about Real State? Stocks and Bonds? Our to make our Money Triple on Wall St? No… because the non Blacks love seeing us continue to rap and dance about Self Destructive Bullshit….I’m out, comment if you want Muthafuckas but you know I’m right.
Black people have been set back another 100 years thanks to this shit.
Don’t put that clown on us.
Petty to release this footage.
Is what it is. Petty for recording and participating in this from all angles.
“the New York City wordsmith” LOL.
Fucking hilarious. If Bobby Shmurda is a wordsmith, Danielle Harling deserves a Pulitzer Prize.
Not much has changed since the Minstrel era, negros used to buck dance for white folk back then and negros buck dance for white folks now…no wonder this Koon was complaining about not getting paid.
…on the bright side we have some actual talented young rappers like KRIT, Cole, Fresh, and others who don’t need to jump on tables in front of white folks in suits just to get signed or recognized.
I wish I could purchase the amount of self-unawareness it took to perform those songs in front of a majority middgle age and white audience with not an ounce of awkwardness…
he didnt even perform he just danced to the cd
slave
moments like these make me thank my lucky stars that i wasnt born a ni99er. now if only they would post this video on TMZ, CNN or Yahoo.
whitey be rolling around on the floor and tables for a deal too
now go smother yaself
Hey “Really?!!?” where are you getting this “multimillion dollar contract” information from? You are full of shiiitttt
some of the biggest artists out aint getting multi million record deals
my favorite part is the very beginning lmao
I understand, get your money however, my problem with today’s music is all about Killing, trapping and negative images.

son even left the jewel expecting the ignorance and y’all don’t even 1 up it and speak on it like you even heard of it, you prove him right
LOL @ you
@LA…and guess what race the guy is that’s signing reid’s check is. The same person who has the final say on these “wordsmiths” that la is signing. Sony runs epic.
To those complaining: i used the word “wordsmith” cause like, you know, he uses words in his songs yo
Go fuck ya self……cunt.
#Shurmoneydance?…………
more like
#monkeydance… lol
Got those poor white folks looking like
“Are we suppose to sell this music to human?”
Please feel free to add you thoughts on what em white folks was thinking
if bobby shmurda came to any one of you commenters blocks right now he would A)have you on his dick and B)fuck your girl. Story over
None of that would happen, though.
Anon 1@ Wow, you sound like you would let him fuck you too, dumb ass fag.
Nigga moments captured on tape.
Is this the clown my bitch was acting like a groupie over?
Sad to say this looks like a slave auction. Ev3n more demeaning for the fact he ranted a few weeks back about not getting paid for shows. Seems like epic is playing this young brother.
Well said.
He Looks like an animated Muppet Puppet Fucket Fruit Cake Jumping Around Back And Forth Trying To Get The Vibrator Unclogged From His Butt!
Embarassing!! i’m no hater but this… this just hurt man.
you said my thought exactly it hurt me so much to watch it!! how embarrassing
hhdx yall 2 weeks late on this story
HHDX YALL HELLA LATE!!!!! HELLA LATE!!!!!!!!!!!!! YALL SUCK!
I see a guy doing what it takes to be a rap star to have money and feed his family and not live the average life style there’s alot of ignorant opinions but maybe if it was there friend or family this guy wouldn’t look the way some of u described him shout out to him for going for his dreams
this ain’t what it takes to be a rap star you jaded in the struggle, lol
true artists go in that room acting like they belong in the recorded music industry, not a jungle gym
If this is what it takes to be a star, ask yourself one question: Aside from black fools, who acts this way? How many corporate rooms in America will you find a group of black industry folks watching a white dude act this way? The answer is none. The fact that blacks have to stoop to this level, and produce such self-suppressive mindless music is nothing short of an embarrassment. And for the record, he’s not feeding his family with his rap income.
Fuck Y’all Niggas I Write These Articles To Perfection
“Nah idgaf Im doing all theses show not getting ma money dey got me doing shit every fucking day so its hard to keep up Witt dis shit den I aint got nobody to trust aint no help in dis bitch Im ready to go back to da trap be4 jail #RNS dats how I feel foh.

“Stop blaming white people for your problems and….Get to DANCING!” – Dave Chappelle. Nice to hear someone listened.
nas jay z big L Big Pun Eminem Chino XL Tech9 = Wordsmiths.
step ur hiphop game up Danielle Harling. Or at least go look up wordsmith in the urban dictionary before you throw that label on anyone just cuz they hott at the moment.
I’m no fan of Shmurda but the HOT NIGGA beat is fire and the song’s catchy.You guys saying some fucked up shit forgetting that THIS IS ENTERTAINMENT and don’t say some ignorant shit like ENTERTAINMENT FOR MONKEYS coz White ppl jam to this shit in the club,the car too.Shit is not always to be taken so seriously,relax ppl lol.
Every 10 years there have always been your serious lyrical artists that talk about real shit & also your play artists too that talk about nothing but come out with a catchy song laced with a hot beat that anyone,any race can jam to. In the 90’s,there was Vanilla Ice,Fresh Prince,Master P,etc. In the 2000’s,Lil Jon,D4L,Young Joc,Soulja Boy,etc.2010 -2014,Waka Flocka,2 Chainz,Young Thug and now Shmurda. All these guys were signed coz they came out with catchy shit that became hot on the charts for a moment and sold hella records. Record execs look at dollars signs whenever they sign these guys. It’s just entertainment. Whenever you want something serious,go listen to Em,Nas,Kendrick,Logic,etc.
True word dawg.those big record companies don’t care about real dope hip hop.They only care about money.And that wack shit sells.Especially when it comes with a dance lol there’s always gonna be corny wack dumbed down hip hop.Its what simple minded people listen to.I rather listen to gangster rap spitted skillfully by real dope “wordsmiths” lol instead of watered down hip hop where the beat sounds doper than the rapper lol…….”Likkle Saigon where’d you get that FLOW?
You ill when you rhyme simple as tic tac TOE
You know why I’m rhymin’ as simple as tic tac TOE?
Cuz niggas is dumb and that’s the shit that BLOW” (Think about it,its true lol) [Saigon….”come again”
You call this dancing. Nigga is only running in the room and acting like a monkey. Damn these niggas nowdays are a bunch of retarded clowns
and again the whitemen is leaving laughing
They’re fronting the money. When they laugh it’s at themselves.
^^^ why do you think the white man fronts n-words like these the money?
All that was missing was a bucket of KFC! Damn, people selling out for the sake of a $$$$$$$$. I get it, you want to get out the hood and live a better life, but damn!
Shady. They do not care about the message being sent out to the masses as long as it does not encourage people to think. They want you to remain in the clouds. Do you own homework. This music is trash. Sorry, there is room for this music, but it’s the only music getting air play on all the main radio stations. This is foolishness. Look at this guy, on display like a slave waiting to be chosen by Massa. Pathetic
If you were investing sizable money in some uneducated street goon, wouldn’t you expect to have some control over what the idiot talked about in his songs? Don’t get it twisted. The music industry is a business that expects results. Nobody is going to pay someone from the ghetto to rap about love and butterflies.
stfu faggot
DAMN YALL HAD ME ALL HYPED THINKING IT WAS A “CELEBRATION, FUCK YOU DANCE”…

LOL.
*this* is the legendary bobby schmurda i’ve seen mentioned in the comment threads all over this site?
*this* guy reps “the streets?” “the streets” are being ripped off… or only the numbest kids are left out there to hear this… but then again, if that’s where he’s from why should we expect anything different from the audience he supposedly serves?
LOL again, i say, with my tankard of OLD-E spilling over.
