Read C-Murder’s letter addressing Master P:
“All I wanted to be was a soldier, like P”
We all must learn lessons before dying. My ultimate lesson was giving loyalty to those undeserving. Yes, I learned the hard way. Incarceration has opened my eyes to see deceit through pitch black darkness. I was taught and raised that your bloodline will be there through thick and thin. Even when the entire wicked world and fake friends condemn and abandon you at your darkest moments. And being in prison for life, means until you die. Until your heart stops beating and your body turns cold.
This is a time to come together and support, unconditionally. Not for finger-pointing and ridicule. Even as I truthfully and passionately claim my innocence, I’m forced to entertain the blasphemy and silly lies of the one I believed in and looked up to the most. Who not only betrayed me but turned his back on my kids. My three angels who keeps blood pumping from my heart, throughout my veins. My sincere message to you as you read this is: Trust no one but yourself. No-one deserves your total loyalty, a smile can be deceiving in many ways. Be your own leader. People change and you can never know someone’s TRU identity or agenda.
I will never change, break or fold. I will always be TRU. It’s my life, my way of thinking. My World!
If my last breath was to come this minute, I’ll be buried as a man among men. Loyal to a fault. But I will rest in peace. Feel Me?
I am smarter and much wiser now. Why? Because I have truly learned my “Lesson Before Dying”
These are the truest words I ever said.
C-Murder
C-Murder will go before another judge in November. Earlier this year, his lawyer filed a post-conviction relief application in the 24th Judicial District Court.
Attorney Rachel Conner is claiming C did not get a fair trial partly because a juror in the 2009 case has stated she and another juror where pressured by other jury members to vote for a guilty conviction.
The Miller team also alleges the trial judge forced the jury to reach a verdict after the 12 person panel originally was unable to come to a decision. The jury later came back with a 10-2 decision to convict. In the state of Louisiana, a 9-3 vote would have resulted in a mistrial.
C-Murder’s previous appeals have been denied.

If there ever was an Outkast movie made, Andre 3000 already has someone in mind to play him.
Complex caught up with 3000 at a screening of his new Jimi Hendrix biopic, “Jimi: All Is By My Side,” where he revealed who he thought would be a good fit.
“It would be great to make an Outkast movie right now, but instead of really serious, make it a full comedy — like Kevin Hart would play Big Boi,” he said of his rapping partner last night. And as himself? “We should cast somebody stupid — like Leonardo [DiCaprio],” ” the Outkast member said.
Now don’t get me wrong, Leonardo is legit with the acting, but hopeful Andre was just pulling our legs when he shared this one.

Between his wings and my anchor, we balance each other out. That duality is what makes this project unique.”

(AllHipHop News) Dame Dash filed a lawsuit in New York Superior Court against famed director Lee Daniels (The Butler, Precious). According to Billboard, Dash is arguing he deserves credits, ownership, and millions of dollars in compensation for giving Daniels $2 million to produce the film The Woodsman.
[ALSO READ: Dame Dash Sues Lee Daniels For $25 Million]
Dash claims he received a written agreement that gave him executive producer credits, 50 percent of rights on the movie, and a promise Daniels would repay him with interest. He also alleges the filmmaker asked to shift the repayment of the $2 million to an investment in his Shadowboxer project.
The complaint reads:
In exchange for keeping quiet about being owed money, to avoid bad press in light of Lee’s upcoming projects, and foregoing prompt payment on the personal guaranty, Lee, and Lee Daniels Entertainment, promised Damon, both o#####, and in writing, that Damon would be given a producer credit and partial ownership rights to any and all of Lee’s projects — i.e., current and future TV shows and/or films — until Lee paid Damon back the $2,000,000.00 plus interest that Damon had originally invested with Lee.
Dash believes this entitles him to credits and compensation for Daniels’ other films Precious, The Paperboy, and The Butler and the upcoming TV show Empire.
Daniel’s attorneys responded by saying, “Regrettably, it’s easy to make allegations. Proving the allegations is a different story, and the precise reason why the judicial system exists. Mr. Daniels looks forward to the Court’s scrutiny of the merits of Mr. Dash’s misguided claims.”
