Ludacris Manager Chaka Zulu In A Murder Plot!

Atlanta media mogul Chaka Zulu faces a murder rap.

Ludacris' longtime manager and co-founder of Disturbing Tha Peace Records Chaka Zulu is being charged with murder. It appears he was a shooting victim and a prime suspect.

Back in June, the record producer was shot in Atlanta. He was among three people shot after an altercation. A person died at the scene. Born Ahmed Obafemi, the record producer was arrested on a list of charges. The most devastating is murder. He also faces aggravated assault, possession of a firearm in the commission of a crime, simple battery and tampering with evidence. The victim, 23-year old Artez Benton was killed at the APT 4B restaurant in Atlanta.

Zulu turned himself into the Fulton County sheriff's department.

In a televised press conference, his lawyer, Gabe Banks said that Zulu acted in self defense and will prove to the court that he was a victim as well.

In a press released by his lawyer the rapper maintains innocence.

"Mr. Chaka Zulu, the beloved son of the City of Atlanta is disappointed in the Atlanta Police Department's decision to bring charges against him surrounding the shooting that occurred in June 2022. A close review of all of the evidence, including surveillance footage and eyewitness interviews, reveal that Mr. Zulu was attacked and jumped from behind of at least (4) individuals (sadly including the decedent) and was forced to defend himself after this gang repeatedly stomped, punched and kicked him while he was on the ground in a defenseless position."

Banks added on his client, "In an attempt to save his life, Mr. Zulu lawfully discharged his weapon in self-defense, a weapon that he was licensed to carry. Mr. Zulu fully cooperated with law enforcement officials and their investigation, and voluntarily turned himself in once he learned of the arrest warrants."

Zulu said that "It is not lost on Mr. Zulu that someone lost his life, but had Mr. Zulu not lawfully defended himself, Mr. Zulu would have been killed that night."

Christopher "Ludacris" Bridges, Chaka Zulu (and his brother) Jeff Dixon, founded Disturbing Tha Peace Records in 1998. Ludacris then known as DJ Luva Luva, released his debut album Incognegro independently. Then Def Jam A&R, Brad Jordan, known as Scarface heard the album and immediately signed him on as a solo artist. 

Ludacris would re-release the album as Back for the First Time and it went three times platinum. 

Ludacris released nine albums. Eight under the Def Jam label through Disturbing Tha Peace.

Ludacris brought to the industry, St. Louis native, Chingy, College Park native Tity Boi (known as 2 Chainz), Chicago's own Shawnna and former Mista singer Bobby V.

Ludacris is an independent artist again. 

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. Gun violence, monkeypox and COVID-19 will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how gun reform is taking away your rights to own firearms.

I don't want to hear that protesting against police killing people of color is hate on cops in general. I don't want to hear talk about the coronavirus being a myth.

Chaka Zulu is credited to bring Ludacris to the mainstream.

When you hear folks say "gun rights," what they really mean is that its white privilege. This good guy with a gun nonsense has to end. The cops didn't do nothing when children were shot inside a school. A security guard was shot dead trying to protect shoppers. A cop accidentally shot his own. The good guy who tried to stop a bad guy is outgunned and a part of the rule #3.

Remember #3 means: The "good guy with a gun" better be prepared to die if they want to stop a shooter.

I don't want to hear folks say masks and vaccine mandates impede their freedoms. It prevents a deadly outbreak from spreading. If you want to die from the coronavirus, that's on you. We lost over 1 million people from the coronavirus.

I don't want to hear the shit about guns saving lives. Cause a bullet does not have eyes and it's always likely gonna hit a target. These folks seem to not get it. These incidents are a tragic part of American history. Thoughts and prayers and your heart going out to the victims is not enough. It quite frankly is an insult. I am also tired of scapegoating Black on Black crime, Chicago, Baltimore and Democratic mayors for the nation's obsession to be numb to gun violence. You pretty much enable this nonsense by deflecting. I am getting fucking tired of white nationalists and their enablers of color complaining about the lack of Black fathers. The fathers are either killed by gun violence, police violence, COVID-19, heart diseases, diabetes, freak accidents and just being Black in America.

President Joe Biden is trying to curb gun violence. However, he has no support from Republicans. Most Democrats and America are for gun control measures. However the two Democrats in the Senate refuse to change the filibuster rules and its holding us back.

The National Rifle Association is always pushing against it. They will not relinquish from the narrative that guns are not saving lives. The Republicans aided by a fickle junk food media are openly encouraging anarchy and disruption in a desperate attempt for the Republicans to win back Congress and the White House. These agitators are calling for Biden to curb crime but will not help him. They want more guns on the street. It makes no sense.

So in closing, expect more.

The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence.
