Nelly Furtado & rapper sparks riot in Russia!

Nelly Furtado's recent Russian gig descended into a riot after a rapper was banned from the stage. The star was supposed to collaborate with Russian rapper Timati during the gig, held in Moscow on Sunday (July 13). However, the venue's security wouldn't allow the rapper onstage with Furtado, leading to an altercation with the singer's security. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, the brawl involved 20 people and ended with "some of the crowd getting covered in blood and Timati losing a tooth". A statement from a venue official apparently read: "We learned at the last moment he was going to perform with Furtado. I gave the order not to let him get on stage." (NME)

Ok now why wouldn't they let him on stage? Is it just some Russian Hip Hop haterade?


In the meantime, here is a lil' taste of Timati





Ok I know Timati was part of an R&B group, but I hope he raps better than he sings' cause this hook sho sounds sappy. I've heard better tracks from him. (you can You Tube him to take a listen) The breakers were hot, but what is up with the tiger/puma/animal across Timati's crotch? Definitely NOT sexy.

Flava reppin' the global Hip Hip movement!
