He's not so Fab-o-lous with blood coming from the bulletwound in his thigh

UPDATE: Fabu-gate just keeps getting better:

Fabolous Hires Investigator To Obtain Details In Shooting: This is soooo un-rapper-esque. What's he trying to do? Handle this the RIGHT way or something...Jeez! You're gonna lose all the "street cred" (hate this term by the way) that you gained by getting shot!

It's been almost a week since Fabu-gate took place. The incident I'm referring to is the one that took place last week in front of Diddy's restaurant, Justin's.

Sebastair Telfair - of ESPN reality series and high school basketball fame...Oh yeah, he's an average (if not below) NBA player too - was dining at the restaurant with his fiancé when he left her to move his car from the front of the restaurant and park it in a nearby garage. At this time, he ran into F-A-B-O-L-O-U-S and the Street Fi-di-di-di-dayum (read: "weed carriers" for Fab). Allegedly, one member of the Street FAM snatched Sebastian's chain while another member of the entourage watched (must have been entertaining), and then the weed carriers and Fab proceeded into Justin's where they sat, ate, and were merry while discussing how they just snatched Sebastian's chain and loved how the blood diamonds gleamed. That's a classic get-away plan by the way.

Minutes later, Sebastian (a native of NYC) re-entered the restaurant and saw Fab and his crew ch-ch-ch-chilling and he (Sebastian) was shortly thereafter seen making "a phone call" (uh-oh) in front of the restaurant. We can only assume who he was calling right? One word...GOONIES! Sebastian and his fiancé then promptly get the fugg outta there. Smart move homie! Don't wanna get shot by your own GOONIES!

A few minutes later, as Fab and his entourage exited the restaurant and headed to the garage to leave, Diddy shot at them for skipping out on the bill. Okay, that's not what really happened, but it would have been funny if it was. So it was not Diddy, but *somebody* (see aforementioned reference to GOONIES) shot at these guys and Fab got hit in the thigh. They then got in the car (fully equipped with 20"+ rims but no hospital supplies) and attempted to take Fab to the hospital but were stopped by police for running several red lights. Naturally, the police found guns in the car and subsequently arrested Fab and Street Fam. Shocker! Fab actually ended up at the hospital and his weed carriers made it to the pokey.

This whole situation raises several questions and quite a few observations. I'll start with the questions:

1. Why would these idiots think they could rob an NBA player and get away with it (even if most of us don't know/care who he is)? Let alone go right into the restaurant he left and just act as if the chain-snatching never took place? Classic wannabe-gangsta-logic.

2. Who is Fab hanging with that's dumb enough to pull this stunt knowing Fab's pretty recognizable in NYC and Sebastian is as well?

3. Did they think Sebastian was just going to just "let it go"?

4. Does Sebastian think no one's going to figure out who he (most likely) called?

The more entertaining part of all this however, is that this situation ties together so many facets of stupidity that I can't help but be entertained and therefore bring it all together in a blogpost.

Think about it. You've got chain-snatching, supposed street credibility for a rapper by getting shot, hip-hop entourages, an NBA player and a hip-hop artist "getting into it" (no Omar), guns in a rapper's car, not snitching, and just plain ole' stupidity in general by Fab and his crew.

This situation brings together the NBA and hip-hop in a way that I've never seen before. It's completely CLASSIC! When have you ever heard of an NBA player allegedly getting a rapper shot? When have you heard of a member of a rapper's entourage snatching the chain of a low-budget NBA baller? Did you ever think someone would be dumb enough to snatch a chain and then sit in the restuarant the snatchee came out of as if there wasn't the potential for retaliation?

TRULY people, this is a moment in time we should all recognize as the worst possible combination of hip-hop, the NBA, and stupidity. Truly a moment frozen in time.
