Rappers and people in general do stupid things all the time that they know is a crime.Rem’s lawyer said she shot Makeda.Sean Bell has nothing to do with people committing crimes. If you don’t like how the legal system is then vote and serve your jury duty. Jury of Remys peers would not be rappers the same way it would and should not be doctors cops murders drug dealers they would all just let each other go. Since we know that they are out to get us then we should be making moves to counter that The first thing would be to hold people for there actions and for us to take 100% responsibality.You can always pick up the transcript from court.

8 years is not harsh enough! what if the chick she shot DIDN’T survive?? Let’s not forget remy SHOT her in the torso and could of KILLED her. “..I still wouldn’t wish that on anyone”?? oh please… 8 years is nothing compared to what she did to her victim.

@ Blacklove great post you made some really good points. I totally agree with you like were is the actual evidence unless its being withheld from the public then i havent really heard any. Screw that wack lawyer Papoose said for her appeal she will have a different one. About Makeda playing to the media it wasnt just her it was her own FATHER who said to the ny post Makeda used to watch Remys kid and that Remy messed up his life just to get public opinion on their side.
Remy Ma & Smith are two different people like yeah she raps about getting high and violence but shes also dealt with topics such as abortion as well. She’s also a sister, mother and wife. Jason’s 7/8 years old so she was pregnant when she was 19 still living in the projects but now hes at a good school living in the suburbs Remy isnt going to put all that in jeapordy. Remy is a good mother and her and her son dont deserve this.

@Missinfo,
you never responded to my post.
Do you not feel you have an obligation to address the underlying issues here?
We don’t know that Remy shot that girl. Remy was on the radio sayin’ she didn’t shoot her and that she didn’t have “a jury of her peers.” Come on…the jury pool was from the MPD and SOHO and Tribeca. How many of Remy’s peers live in those areas? What about Makeda’s story? Does it add up? Do you really think someone as sharp and intelligent as Remy would do something so bonkers? What about the overall issues…the plot of destructing Hip Hop? Are you afraid to address these issues? Is it because she’s not Asian? I’m just asking because you claim to love Hip Hop but I don’t know what you stand for…is it only to dish dirt or do you have a genuine love of the culture? There was no gun found-yet Remy is found guilty on gun possession? We have to separate the “artist Remy Ma” from the woman Ms. Remy Smith. No one deserves jail and Makeda played to the media talking about they were “childhood friends,” then she on Miss Jones talking about they knew each other 6 or 7 months!
We hate on each other so badly-it’s pathetic.
This is a Black woman, mother of the earth, and someone else’s mother. Those judges are out to get us. We don’t know what happen because we can’t get justice in their system-(see Sean Bell verdict).

Shooting someone because they allegedly stole from you is way out of line. All that crying during sentencing was too little too late. Personally, I cannot stand being around angry people, they can loose their top anytime. The victims says Remy went through her bag following the shooting, found nothing “surprise” and left her bleeding. What kind of human does that? A monster no doubt. She’s supposedly the tough rider no? Well let her do the time. She can handle it. Her son may be better off without all the anger anyway.
