Rhymefest’s new track "#CopsnRobbers”

In the past 48 hours or thereabouts, Chicago rapper Che “Rhymefest” Smith tried to report a mugging, was treated “disgustingly” by police, issued an apology by the Chicago police department for said treatment, issued a promise by an outraged Mayor Emanuel in response to the cavalier treatment the singer received from CPD, and set the entire incident to music, in a newly released track featuring John the Author (and produced by S1, Epikh Pro, Damon Ranger and Xzibit), titled “#copsnrobbers.”

In the song, he rhymes:

Cops n robbers/Cops n robbers You can’t tell who’s who/That’s the problem I’m the suspect/I’m the victim; Who just shot me?/ You just missed em’ If I shoot back/Then I’m in prison But if we go to court/Then you just dismiss them
