Slick Rick still has immigration issues

November 4, 2008 by webmaster · Leave a Comment 

Despite pardon from NY governor, rapper’s woes continue.

*Slick Rick’s past criminal convictions may have been pardoned by New York’s Governor David Paterson earlier this year, but the rapper says he’s still running into red tape with U.S. immigration authorities.

“We’re in a better position that we was before,” said the recent recipient of a VH1 Hip Hop Honor. “We have a couple of hurdles that we have to go through, just clarifying everything with the immigration people. Other than that we’re just on standby to see what the board does from this point forward.”

The rap icon, born Ricky Walters, has been jailed in the U.S twice – once in 1991 for attempted murder and assault , and again in 2002 over immigration issues. He was released from jail in 2003 after spending 18 months in detention, and Gov. Paterson officially pardoned the star for his crime in May.

Slick Rick Will Be Honored at The Fifth Annual ‘VH1 Hip Hop Honors’

August 15, 2008 by webmaster · Comments Off 

NEW YORK, Aug 13, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ — Tracy Morgan Returns as Host of The 2008 “VH1 Hip Hop Honors” Which Premieres on VH1 and VH1 Soul on Tuesday, October 7 at 10PM*

VH1 has announced the five honorees for their fifth annual “VH1 Hip Hop Honors,” Cypress Hill, De La Soul, Slick Rick, Naughty By Nature and Too $hort. Hosted once again by Tracy Morgan, this year’s musical celebration will give viewers a chance to step back and reminisce on a time when hip hop music began to make its greatest impact on American pop culture.
Premiering on Tuesday, October 7 at 10PM*, generations of hip hop will bridge the gap for one exceptional night to set it off with the original style and flavor that sparked a revolution and continues to fuel an evolution around the world. Additional performances and appearances will be announced shortly.

“Now in its fifth year, the ‘VH1 Hip Hop Honors’ has come to represent the pinnacle of innovation and achievement in hip hop music,” said Tom Calderone, Executive Vice President and General Manager, VH1. “This year’s five honorees are no different and are being recognized for their significant contributions to hip hop culture and for helping to elevate hip hop into a truly global phenomenon.”

Introducing this year’s honorees:

Cypress Hill: With a driving rhyme style and brutally infectious production, this L.A. based collective brought a welcomed Latino perspective to hip hop storytelling, creating records like “Insane in the Brain” that crossed all barriers and gave Cypress Hill fans in the rock, as well as, rap world.

De La Soul: This Long Island trio brought a playful, smart, and off-center style to hip hop, while pushing their suburban and bohemian sensibility to the fore. Their innovative sound has influenced not only other MCs, but helped inspire the entire underground movement in the culture.

Naughty By Nature: Led by the strident style of lead MC Treach, Naughty By Nature brought New Jersey hip hop into the mainstream by creating hit singles that became anthems for a generation. “OPP” and “Hip Hop Hooray” are two of the most popular records in rap history.

Slick Rick: With vivid storytelling and unique rhyme style Slick Rick has always been one of the most unique and influential figures in the culture’s history. When you combine Rick’s MC gifts with his gold chains, eye patch and regal clothing the result is a figure who embodies the fun, the danger and the flavor that is hip hop.

Too$hort: Too $hort started his career in the ’80s selling 12-inch singles full of freaky tales on his own indie label in Oakland and has remained true to his raw style, in the process becoming a legend in the game while staying true to his hard core values.

Additionally, on September 19 VH1.com will launch its dedicated “VH1 Hip Hop Honors” Web site with honoree profiles, exclusive online programming, show information and more at HipHop.VH1.com.

Slick Rick Pardoned

May 23, 2008 by webmaster · Leave a Comment 

Break out your Cool Water cologne! New York Governor David Paterson has granted a full and unconditional pardon to rapper Slick Rick for the attempted murders of his cousin and another man.

The eyepatched rapper, whose real name is Ricky Walters, served more than five years in the slammer after the 1990 shooting of the two men, who both survived.

The Feds had been trying to deport the UK-born Slick since 2002. The pardon should halt these efforts.

The good gov says the rap star is a good citizen who does volunteer work in his community. For his part Rick says, “I look forward to enjoying this time with my family and friends and to continue leading an honest and productive life.”

1 year !!
