DX News Bits: Luke, Sandman

    Former rapper Luke recently shared his thoughts on rappers and guns for his latest blog entry for the MiamiNewTimes.com.

    In his entry, the 2 Live Crew front-man explained why rappers and members of their entourage are notoriously known for carrying weapons.

    “Earlier this month, Lil Wayne began a one-year prison sentence on a gun charge, prompting people to ask me why, with all of his money and security guards, Young Money would risk his career like that. Well, people have to understand the rappers’ workplace,” Luke explained in his blog entry. “Guys like Lil Wayne, T.I., Young Jeezy, 50 Cent — hard-core rappers — have to do shows in the hardest hard-core nightclubs where the thuggest of the thuggish congregate.”

    Luke went on to explain that although rappers travel with detailed security, a lack of trust is usually why rappers also carry guns. In his blog, Luke also revealed that he keeps a gun at home.

    “As for me, I own a gun, but I keep it at home,” Luke concluded. “I don’t carry it because I have a very bad temper and I will shoot somebody…I don’t go to places where I am going to need a gun.”

    In other Hip Hop news, Philadelphia rapper and former Re-Up Gang member Sandman will join a host of other rappers for a showcase taking place in Philly today (March 24).
