News On Papoose & Keith Murray
Papoose has been dropped from Jive records. Audio
Keith Murray took a trip to the motherland and ended up getting robbed.
According to local paper Pretoria News, the rapper lost “the last 12 years of his work” stored on the Apple Mac and was now desperate to get it back.
The paper reports that two armed men stormed into the Cube recording studios in Parkview, South Africa at around 10 p.m., holding up Murray and several other individuals with him.
When the guys left they even had the cheek to shout ‘Hey Fassie boy, continue making hits’,” Stehr told the paper.

LOL….Fassie Boy?
Damn pap, so what happens to the “1.5 million” he been braggin bout
September 20th, 2007 at 9:11 am
Been saying this. Pap will never be anything more then a mixtape rapper.
September 20th, 2007 at 9:20 am
hip hop politics at it’s finest…. Jive records in this day and age is not a good label to be on hip hop wise. I already knew it was coming they been pushing back his record for a few years…. He should of went the indie route from the start and stayed there..
September 20th, 2007 at 9:27 am
He will go indy now or somebody will pick him up. The 1.5 advance stays though right? Like a signing bonus in sports are guaranteed.
September 20th, 2007 at 9:28 am
IT’S OBVIOUS HE ONLY WENT TO JIVE FOR THE MONEY.
JIVE DON’T HAVE A CLUE TO DO WIT RAPPERS AND WEN U AIN’T ESTABLISHED LIKE PAP YOU AIN’T GON GO FAR WIT A LABEL LIKE THAT.
HE NEED TO FIND A LABEL THAT REALLY UNDERSTANDS HIM AND KNOWS HOW TO PROMOTE WHAT HE’S ABOUT.

September 20th, 2007 at 10:00 am

September 20th, 2007 at 10:02 am
Thats messed up.. 12 years of work, fucked up
September 20th, 2007 at 10:58 am
I feel for Keith Murray, it goes to show you the whole world is on this bullshit. And Papoose deserved to get dropped after putting out his horrible music with Scott Storch…
September 20th, 2007 at 11:02 am
PAPOOSE:’NACIREMA DREAM EARLY O7′ GET THAT’ LMAO
2006 he had a crazy buzz. Everbody was feeling Pap (inculding me). You snooze you loose even if you do have mad talent like he has. Mixtapes aint enough nowadays. Classic Albums are what makes you secure in hip hop history.
September 20th, 2007 at 11:05 am
Pap is just an overrated mixtape artist. he got some nice word play, but he has the same flow for every song no matter the beat. my interest in his album has been long gone… that’s fucke up what happened to keith murray. he,s down there trying to help people and bullshit still follwed him. smh
September 20th, 2007 at 11:33 am
damn my nigga keith murray lost his life basically .n he only got like 2 comments on it smh thats fuked up b
September 20th, 2007 at 11:59 am
KEITH MURRY – DAM WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM COULD HAVE HAPPENED TO ANYONE AND IT’S A FOUL SITUATION TO BE IN BUT AT LEAST NO ONE WAS HURT OR WORSE KILLED. LOST OF HIS WORK DAM NOW THAT’S A TUFF BREAK.
PAPOOSE – ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST HIM AND SAIGON WILL NEVER GET MAJOR DEALS THEY NEED TO GO INDIE FIRST AND GET THERE SHIT OUT THERE AND GET THAT INDEPENDENT MONEY FIRST THEN MOVE TO THE MAJORS..HOPEFULLY HE GOT TO KEEP WHATEVER HE HAD LEFT FROM HIS 1.5 MILLION CAUSE IF HE HAS TO GIVE IT BACK HE’S REALLY FUCKED WATCH HIM END UP ON G-UNIT LOL BEST OF LUCK TO YOU PAP
September 20th, 2007 at 12:02 pm
That’s what security is for. Hold ya head Keith.
September 20th, 2007 at 1:44 pm
Murry must’ve just had his peeps with him for this trip and no countrymen…Any foreign country you go to you better be escorted by a country native or it’s a wrap…They make a living out of tracking down foreigners for robberies and if you are famous with no real protection or natives to give you awareness you become a prime target…
…Thank the lawd he came out alive…South Africa is GUTTA depending on where he was…
…As far as Papoose goes…Wasn’t really no one checking for him no way…He has NO BUZZ…So, that’s no loss and im not suprised…
September 20th, 2007 at 2:54 pm
Man, too bad my man Murray got jacked.
They also took some paper and other shit, not just the laptops. But he said he got a 7,000 dollar reward for whoever returns shit, so hopefully someone listens.
South Africa is cool though. But some places are gutta as fuck, their crime rate is like Bmore times 2. Niggas stay on some gully shit down there. Robbing and carjackings are crazy. But its a nice country, they got everything we got up here. Same malls, mcdonalds, pizza huts, lotta nice whips, the good parts are basically like here.
September 20th, 2007 at 3:19 pm
lmao at pap
damn,thtz messed up what they did to keith murray…..

September 20th, 2007 at 8:24 pm
I can’t get past…
[According to local paper Pretoria News, the rapper lost "the last 12 years of his work" stored on the Apple Mac and was now desperate to get it back.]
WHY!!!!!!…. the fuck would you store the last 12 years of your work on one pc. I understand a few songs but 12 years worth? Come on man! Dudes with a lil money can’t buy pin protected flash drives these damn dayz??? I can’t even have sympathy right now.
On the other hand, when we see a South African rapper appear on you tube with a Keith Murray flow you already know………
lol j/k
Cosign… PAPOOSE = MIX TAPE CIRCUIT where his azzzz will likely stay.
September 20th, 2007 at 9:24 pm
damn papoose is nice and got dropped real lyricist dont get a chance no more,and i knew pap wouldnt have sold if he came out he aint a mainstream rapper at all…and thats fucked up wat happened to keith murray 12 years gone all from 1 robbery like a mufucka said above me u should have had yo shit spread out but i feel bad for him tho…
September 20th, 2007 at 11:08 pm
have any of the ppl commenting on what south africa is like, actually been there?
well, i’m from s.a and any fool knows, whenever ur travelling, u better make sure u no what areas to go to, and where u dont step foot in. and u cant come over here and act like a superstar and flash with ur entourage.
n to the person who said something bout fassie boy. his mother was one of the most popular singers in africa. so yeah, that’s why that was said.
September 20th, 2007 at 11:10 pm
and keith murray is not that famous over here. lol
it was probably some random robbery. the only song i remember with him on it, was the one with r.kelly.
September 21st, 2007 at 12:07 am
bitch magnet u must be dumb as fuck. Spears and homemade weapons?? Nigga aint u see blood diamond, them muthafuckas in africa be roling around with ak 47’s and m16s nigga. Them lil ass kids be 12 holding ak’s and shit. south africa prolly got more guns than the worst crime states here.
September 21st, 2007 at 2:31 am
papoose wit kay slay so he should be good. he can drop a mixtape whenever he want to and everybody will know cuz of kay slay. and i dont believe 12 years of work was on that one computer. that shit sound fabricated. dont believe everything u hear. 12 years? that nigga aint put none of that shit on the studio memoryboard? hell naw thats crazy. all that shit was probably on there, but he got it somewhere else too. niggas dont make songs and then just put em on the computer and delete em all. the engineers and producers who worked on the songs gonna have a copy too, cuz they gotta work on the shit
September 21st, 2007 at 5:51 am
Most people knew It was bad to go to Jive but Papoose & Kay Slay only saw the $$$ now dude will have to wait even longer for the album. His latest singles have been bad to say the lease he losing his buzz also Papoose needs to step up big time.
