You're Fired!


There has been a storm brewing on the internet. There is a rapper that is affiliated with T.I. and his Grand Hustle Entertainment group, named AlphaMega. Thesmokinggun.com, outed Alphamega as a D.E.A. informant. Apparently, he snitched on some co-defendents and received a lighter sentence on a drug case. This has caused all kinds of mayhem. A snitch in the rap world? T.I. acted swiftly and fired AlphaMega. Here is the press release from T.I.:

I am stunned and totally surprised by the news about Alfa “Ced Zellars” mega (Ced Zellars). Even though all of our artist and employees are asked by us to be honest and open about their past history, at no time did Alfa disclose to me or Grand Hustle what is now appeared in the media.

He essentially deceived us by failing to fully disclose the truth about his past and there is no place in our organization for dishonest and misleading behavior. As I have always said, you must take responsibility for your own actions.

We at Grand Hustle cannot support or condone blaming others for our own mistakes. I hope and pray that God blesses Ced in his plans, but I don't forsee me or my company playing a role in his personal or professional business.

The End.
