Is it a coincidence the Wolfe moves to the Baltimore area and this mysterious DVD surfaces? Is he working for da Man and looking to bring another brotha down? Or does he want the video to make sure he's not in it?
Anthony appears in about six minutes of the DVD entitled “Stop Snitching.” Shot in September when Anthony was visiting his old block in Baltimore, “Stop Snitching” shows the basketball star’s friends joking about what they would do to Larry Brown, the coach of the Olympic basketball team who benched Anthony, should Brown visit Baltimore.
“We gon’ lynch his ass if he ever come here,” one guy says.
In another scene a rapper named Tony O freestyles about a snitch in which he threatens to “destroy your house just like you had a hundred elephants in your crib.”
But Rodney Bethea, who produced the 108-minute DVD with a man named “Skinny Suge” — who appears in the video — said the police and media have exaggerated the message in “Stop Snitching.”
“It was for entertainment purposes only,” Bethea told BlackAmericaWeb.com Sunday from his “One Love Underground” shop in Southwest Baltimore, where he sells “Stop Snitching” for $10 a piece. “It’s a documentary about what’s going on in the streets of Baltimore,” said Bethea. “It’s no different than a documentary about a serial killer. The police and media have made it far more than what it was intended to be.”
Bethea, who also edited “Stop Snitching,” was visibly miffed that none of the media outlets bothered to get his side of the story before printing or airing reports. The few comments he gave, he told BlackAmericaWeb.com, were against the advice of his lawyers, who suggested he not to talk to the media at all. It was only with great reluctance that he sold a BlackAmericaWeb.com correspondent a copy of “Stop Snitching.”
For some reason One Love Underground is not listed in the Yellow Pages.
