Just got back from the Albert. Loads of people milling about down by the Dogstar. Surely not another shooting?

when i drove past at about 6.30pm, there was a big crowd in and outside one of the record shops, and over the road directly opposite (outside the cab office) - I assumed it was a gig/open mic thing. - could be left over from that.

quiet night in brixton, then.
Beanieman was at Blacker Dread's record shop on the edge of the market (opposite Rosie's) and a pretty big crowd had turned out to see him. It tuned nasty when one guy was chased by a mob up Rushcroft Road after being accused of stealing. I got caught up in the middle of it and it was pretty nasty. The guy being chased looked terrified and ended up crawling under a car to get away from the beating. They dragged him out and kept on going. The police did turn up quite quickly though and managed to drag people off him. Thank god - I really thought they were going to kill him.

The local rumour is that it was Beanieman that got robbed......

btw, I have no idea if this is true...just what the kids are saying on the estate.
that is interesting because all i know is that around 3 pm yesterday afternoon there was the biggest what seemed like a riot, crowd gathering about 80 people or so pushing and rowing at each other and at the police in the middle of it, on rushcroft road. it was quite a significant event because it was very big and it looked like it could get out of hand any minute. some police officers where right in the middle of it and they got a lot of shouting at ie things like don't touch my son. don't touch me etc' shortly afterwards more police have arrived. overall they looked a bit unorganised with most of them onlooking only a couple of police men getting involved and like i said terribly shouted at. it seemed like there where two things going on, some inner crowd disagreement (which must have been the stealing issue) and some letting some steam out at the police. overall it stayed more or less violent free besides pushing and screaming.
after about 20 minutes the crowd dispersed and rushcroft roads residents went back inside (from the windows).
it was a weird and not very nice vibe saturday afternoon.

Blimey Fanta, I thought what with you being so in touch with black culture and all, you'd know that...
Beanie man is a massive, and notorious reggae star.
we walked through all sorts of shoving and yelling on the way to the pub about 8pm, few cops around, looked like the end of something. Linerider said it had got so bad there was a stabbing, but fuck knows..

oh do fuck off. AG is as sensitive as anyone to the whole homophobia in dancehall issue. I also enjoy Beenie Man's music. doesn't mean i'm unaware of the vile content of some of his tunes.
