West Coast Hip Hop luminary, B-Real recently took a moment to comment on 40 Glocc’s recent lawsuit against Game for an altercation that took place in July 2012 outside of a Hollywood, California mansion.
“You never hear a rapper from the street aspect like 40 Glocc suing another rapper from the street aspect,” said the Cypress Hill emcee speaking exclusively with VladTV. “That just doesn’t happen because it kind of defeats the purpose of that code—that 'gangster' code—that we all [abide by]. If you were involved in gangs, you don’t ? talk on your enemy like that to nobody. In [California], that’s just a no no. You just don’t do that.”
An an example of the “gangster code,” B-Real referred to the 1989 altercation between Suge Knight and Vanilla Ice over the rights to royalties from Ice’s smash hit, “Ice Ice Baby.“ Allegedly, Knight and his bodyguards dangled Ice over a hotel balcony.
“When Suge Knight allegedly had Vanilla Ice out that ? window, [Vanilla Ice] didn’t go ? sue the ? ,” said B-Real. “He shut the ? up. That story may have gotten out here and there, but he ain’t go to no lawsuit for it. He just kept it the way it was and chalked it up to, “? it. This is what happened. I gotta live with this ? ...If you’re a gangster rapper, for you to go sue another gangster rapper for that type of ? , it doesn’t seem like a good look. I think you lose a little bit of respect there.”
B-Real continued: “As far as the regular individuals outside of that world, yeah, they’re gonna be like, 'Yeah, go get your money.' ? that. You shouldn’t let nothing like that happen to you.” ...This is something that obviously he’s thought about over and over again because I don’t think this is a decision that you make right off the bat. If you come from that world, you lose a little bit of respect from the other ? that come from that world. Like, “Aw man, how’s he sueing this ? ? I thought he was from the streets.” Who knows what his mentality is? I definitely don’t know. We’ve never seen that before.”
The “Insane In The Brain” lyricists also foreshadowed that 40 Glocc’s lawsuit against Game may start a trend of street beef filtering into the courtroom. While he says he’s “cool” with both rappers, B-Real also said the situation is “pretty ridiculous” and “irresponsible.”
“I got love for both of them, but I think they’re being a little irresponsible because you’ve got kids that are ? looking at what you’re doing,” he said. “It’s one thing to be saying what you’re saying in music because it’s art coupled with a lot of different things. Whether you’re trying to inspire somebody, or educate somebody, or provoke some sort of thought—it’s all artistry...But your actions outside of that—when you’re on Twitter or the Facebook or the YouTube—and you’re going at this ? or he’s coming at you, that’s gonna make these ? think that’s what they gotta do. You’re leading kids into that ? deep ass water."
“I know Game is smarter than that. 40 Glocc is probably smarter than that, too. But because of the positions they’ve put each other in, they have to react to one another so that they don’t look bad to their perspective ? homies and ? like that. Meanwhile, you’re giving this ? up message to these kids and maybe possibly putting their lives in danger to one another. Maybe they don’t give a ? about that. Maybe they don’t see that. But they should.”
As part of Cypress Hill, B-Real was once embroiled in a publicized beef with fellow West Coast Hip Hop legend, Ice Cube and his group, Westside Connection that began when Cypress Hill believed Ice Cube stole the chorus to their song, 1995's “Throw Your Set In The Air” and placed a similar version of the hook on his song “Friday." After nearly spilling into citywide violence, the conflict was resolved in 1997 when Mack 10 brokered a conversation between B-Real and Ice Cube.

it's your absolute right to disagree with the law suit
but he sounds like a ? idiot
lets think
while he sets comfy living in his multi-million dollar mansion
and he is actively encouraging "a code" that has been nothing but detrimental to urban minority communities

like everyone knows this !

The code was before us. The code will be after us... The code is used by urban minorities and regular majorities. Snitching is frowned upon on all races. -
40 harmed himself more than Game harmed him..he threw himself into the bushes and fell into the car. He could have at least swung back tho..boy just balled up like Sonic..
-
there be alot of snitchin!
-
I'm glad a OG from Cali said this, how u suppose to be a gangsta jumping other ? and then when the tables turn, u go run to the police and sue like a ? lol.
50 need to drop him from G-Unit just for this ? ? he pulled Lol. -

Bruh I think the purpose of the video went over your head. 40's claim to fame(cuz it damn sure ain't his music) was video taping himself with all his crew going at rappers. Game video tapped it to show how ? made 40 is. Say what you want about games bipolar ass but he stay beating up these fake ass rappers b.
-
While we're at it, we should ask 40 Glocc to look for 2005 Lil Wayne and some Mannie Fresh beats since he's in the bushes.
-
getting your ass kicked into some bushes should be against the gangster code as well
