Today In Trials: One Date Set, One Postponed

AP070710012363.jpgWhat's dumber than whipping out a gun and decking a guy because a simple pick-up basketball game wasn't going your way? Why it's purportedly pouting with a pistol in your hand on a playground commonly used by area young people. And then getting arrested for it. When you're a (moderately talented at best) rapper of some renown. Which is why the BBC reports the Game will be appearing before judge and jury in California at the end of the month. And he's not the only artist with a court appearance in the upcoming busy fall releasetrial schedule:



Another judge, in another jurisdiction, facing another rapper has postponed Busta Rhymes' trial—charges stemming from supposedly being a drunk-driving, no-liscense-having, beating-up-multiple-people kinda guy—thanks to the prosecution not being quite ready to roll with it case. According to XXL, this is after Busta rolled the dice in July by turning down a one-year plea for the whole shebang and going for broke before a jury, in a trial that will now kick off in November. Perhaps he picked up some tips for delaying proceedings from the master.
