What is that lawsuit that I see that's going on right now? The criminal trial with the dude from the Fugees. What is that? Do you know that story? He was an FBI snitch. Yeah, but I think he's a double agent. What? Because apparently Tupac said back in the day he knew he was an FBI or something like that. Tupac said he was FBI back in the day? So was he? Nobody listened to Tupac. Tupac's mother was a Black Panther. Maybe they should have listened. They should have. But he came out, he was really an FBI agent, right? That's crazy. Was he really an FBI agent? So here's one story. Fugee rapper. Fugee rapper, Proz, testifies he met and shared information with the FBI voluntarily. Oh, who? So Jeff Sessions' testimony was not exciting. The defense basically had him describe an official legal process for considering extraditing Guo at China's request. The apparent idea was to suggest that there was nothing so bad in Proz and company trying to have Guo sent back to China. Proz is testifying in his own defense. Told the judge, after consulting with my attorneys and the universe, I decided that I will testify. Oh, he consulted with the universe. I like how people talk like that. He's facing ten charges including conspiracy, witness tampering, and failing to register as an agent of China. What? Who the fuck is Chai? I mean, Guo? He's an agent of China. The black dude? Yes. That guy was a billionaire he was talking about. Oh, okay. Well, on the stand, Proz addressed his alleged efforts to get the U.S. to extradite Chinese billionaire Guo Wengui. In addition, he denied acting as an agent for China. I took it upon myself to report because I thought the FBI should know he testified. Before his trial started, the 50-year-old artist told Rolling Stone, What benefit would I get trying to break laws? It's not worth it to me. I'm like a pariah now. I've got friends who won't talk to me because they think there's a satellite in orbit listening to them. To be clear, Proz never testified in the stand that he was an FBI informant. His approach to the FBI to discuss Guo Wengui and three Americans held in China was completely voluntary. If convicted, Proz serves 22 years in prison. What do they think he did? That's what I understand. What are they accusing him of? Okay. It says, they allege the veteran rimer was the middleman for alleged crimes, including a secret lobbying campaign, to help Malaysian billionaire Joe Lau put pressure on American justice officials while White House officials, and White House officials, when his fraud scheme unraveled and to help the Chinese government secure the return of a dissident who's living inside the U.S. I don't know. I'm not exactly sure what he does. I mean, I still don't know what he did. I know everybody's like, he's an FBI. Everybody got a side job. But it seems like then he wasn't even informed. He went to the FBI because he felt like they should know that. What's it like? Jesus, you're opening up the candle. See what I'm in my business? See what I say? If it's aliens out there, hey, if they're out there, all I say, when you come to our country, pay your taxes. I don't think they're paying shit. Well, I mean, I don't want to pay shit. If I looked at what I think about aliens, I think they're monitoring us because we're a highly sophisticated society that might blow itself up. I don't think that's why they're here. Joe, ain't no fucking aliens here. You don't think so? Here's a different explanation and bringing the Tupac thing I just brought up. Tupac lyrics fueling a conspiracy theory after Fuji's member, Proz admits he was an FBI informant. The hip hop world was shocked when Proz, how do you say his last name? Michelle. Michelle. One of the founding members of the legendary group Fuji's admitted he was an FBI informant during his federal conspiracy trial in Washington, D.C. Proz is accused of conspiring to make illegal campaign contributions using foreign funds from a Malaysian fugitive, Jao Lo, who also wanted for his role in a massive corruption scandal involving billions of dollars. So he got tied up with the wrong people. Yeah, and then somewhere around here, like a cryptic line from a song in 96 is something about the Fuji's we're trying to do to him. Oh. Speculating that. Tupac was aware of Proz's involvement with the FBI and that he was expecting him, exposing him as a snitch. It's like the internet runs wild with the story. Oh, yeah. So that's like open to interpretation. Not a bad side gig if it comes with health care. The side gig working for the FBI. They seem to all go to jail anyway. Pretty much. Yeah. Those FBI informants, it seems like a lot of those guys wind up going to jail anyway. That are what is it when they protect you for the rest of your life? Witness protection? Yeah. That's real fun. You got to live in the middle of nowhere with a fake name. Just stay at home. Right. Just let me get killed. I just got to go to one more club. A little better explanation maybe. Currently facing up to 22 years in prison for conspiracy witness tampering in the failing to register as an agent of China, Michelle was first accused of federal crimes December of 2018. Although he would eventually plead not guilty in May of 2019, Michelle was allegedly involved in helping Malaysian business mogul, that's what we already know, embezzle over 4.5 billion from the Malaysian government and use it to fund Barack Obama's 2012 reelection campaign. What? So he stole money and then when he gave money like he was a big doll to Obama campaign? Yes. Well, they do shit like that just to protect themselves from future prosecution. That's what FTX did, that cryptocurrency exchange that went under. They were the number two donor to the Democratic Party. They were just donating money like crazy. He's like, leave us alone. We're your friend. We're going to give you some money. They're making billions of dollars off these nonsense crypto money. Did you invest in that shit? Very little. I have some Bitcoin. Along with asking Trump to dismiss Lowe's previous crime, Michelle also reportedly worked on behalf of the Chinese government to try to return a Chinese dissident back from the US by establishing a relationship with Steve Bannon and Trump. Wow. Mm. Okay. Before Michelle... Don't let the Caprios got to do anything. I said, decided to testify on April 18th, iconic actor Leonardo DiCaprio was called to stand on April 3rd, considering he had a previous relationship with both Lowe and Michelle. DiCaprio testified that Lowe revealed to him his plans to make donations to the Democratic Party in 2012. That whole donating to political party shit is so slippery. That shit is so slippery. Because like, what kind of weird deals you guys making? You know they making weird deals. Weird deals. Small people like me donate. I don't get shit, but a sticker. Get a sticker? That's all I ever got when I donated to the Democratic Party. Their peddling influence. One article, first one we said he didn't say he was an informant, but everything else is said the opposite. Well, informant means he had a conversation with them and he gave them information. He informed them, right? You could technically say he's an FBI informant if you went to them with information. Even if it's voluntary. Yes. Admitting that he was an informant for the FBI, Michelle elaborated that he gave up information about US hostages in China while at the same time being a liaison for China who was working to get a Chinese criminal billionaire extradited back from the US. If this sounds like a big ugly mess, it's because it is. Yeah, it seems like he just got caught up in some shit where he's probably trying to make some money and they thought it would be clean and they're going to donate money to the Democratic Party and oh, it's great. Working with all these people. Hey, Leonardo's working with them. Oh, must be fine. And that's that's one of the ways they get people involved in these like very shady deals as they do it with other famous people like, hey, he's in there. You should be in there too. Oh, okay. But to hang out with Leo. Next thing you know, you're involved in some weird thing that's got you, you know, testifying in front of Congress. One thing you can guarantee, Jerome, I'm never coming to an alien party with you. I love you, but you can have this shit on your own. No, no, no. If the aliens come, you're the first person I'm coming to. I'm like, we're going Atlanta. If they grab me and I'm like, we're real. Who are we going to tell? I'm like, oh, found guilty on all 10 counts. In the national fraud trial. He's convicted, guilty on 10 counts related to what prosecutors called a clandestine foreign intelligence campaign scheme funded by a wealthy Malaysian financier to peddle influence in the United States. See, that's what I'm talking about. They're peddling influence. The week long trial saw witnesses like Leonardo DiCaprio, former Attorney General Jeff Sessions take the stand and testify under oath. Wow. He's fucked. So that Malaysian guy is still at large. And he was charged as a co-defendant in Michelle's case and played a major role in witness testimony and evidence presented to the jury. According to the Justice Department, Lau, I don't know how you say it, lower Lau, allegedly misappropriated over 500 million from the sovereign wealth fund, Malaysian, one Malaysian development, Burhad, with wire transfers to shell companies he and others used or owned. Okay. So he's fucked, man. If they if they made it, he's going to jail. 22 years, I think it says. Oh, my God. 22 years. What is he, 50? Fuck. He might not make it off that type of phone. I think how many of those are going on where people aren't getting arrested, though? Like how much of that influence peddling shit is just it's been going on for the start forever. This ain't nothing new. I just don't I'm still confused as to how he's in trouble. Me too. Like what did he did? He connected people that were trying to get a billionaire released, became friends with Trump to try to get a guy released. No, but Obama. Well, he wasn't. He was just giving the money to Obama. He tried to establish a relationship with Steve Bannon and Trump. And Jeff Sessions. Yeah. How weird. Not weird. It's just what goes on with our government. But he's from the Fuji. He's like, bro, aren't you busy? He should have turned that shit into a song to get a picture with Obama. Lau paid Michelle 20 million in 2012 in order to get a picture of himself with Obama and prosecutors alleged that Michelle funneled over 800,000 of that money to Obama's campaign through a number of straw donors. Whoa. So he made a deal where this guy gave him 20. I'll get you a picture with Obama. You got to give me 20 million. And he said to Obama, listen, I'll give you 800,000. He didn't say that to Obama. He just said he just started. He just made up all these accounts and money. Yeah. But I mean, they must have had some. He funneled that money through a number of straw donors. That seems to me like that's how they would do it. Well, somebody donate that type of money. You want to know who it is. It's not like me who give you 20 dollars and say no to the next 20 dollars. But they did it through these hidden things. Yeah, they get over 100 million, it says. So he knew what he was doing. Whoa. According to prosecutors, Lau directed over 100 million to Michelle to help push the government, including Trump, to drop its investigation into Lau. Prosecutors also say that Michelle advocated for the extradition of Chinese dissident Guo Wen Dui on behalf of the Chinese government. He said he gave him 100 million for a media business. Can you imagine the Fuji? They had a song in years, but they looking at him like, how is he living like that? Right. The rest of the group, like, what the fuck is he over there doing? We had a hit album since 93. I know, right. Early 2000. Why? How is he living like that? All this time, he got a friend named Lo, who's sending him millions through why? He ain't telling nobody. He pulling in up in new cars. And you're like, I know everybody else in the group like, nigga, what you up to? What the fuck you doing? But he ain't tell nobody. Thank God he didn't. Working on international policy. People are like, what? I'm running for Congress. I'm influence peddling. No, he didn't say all that. He said, I got a donor. What a dirty business politics is. The fact that they like, no one's mad at Obama for that. No one's mad at anybody who's getting the Democratic Party getting all that money. They don't have to give it back. No. All the money that got funneled from them. Imagine if that got funneled to another person. That person would be in trouble. It would be. Right. But you get funneled to the Democratic Party like, hey, we're having to get guys. The Republicans do the same thing. Everybody does. Everybody does. Everybody. The idea that there's two teams fighting against each other, for sure, for temporary control while they all share resources. If you look at the number of Congress people that are inside are trading. It's everyone. It's across the board. It's red and blue. It's like Republican, Democrat. They're all in there. They're all in cahoots. They're all pretending. They're all pretending they're working for us. They hate each other. They play like they hate each other. But yet you sneak up over one of their houses and there's Mitch McConnell at, what's her girl name who just left to pick up the house? Nancy Pelosi. Nancy Pelosi House. Getting drunk. Talking about all the shit they did. How much you make off an apple? I'm sorry. Your husband got his ass whooped. They weren't supposed to go that far. I'm sorry.The Jerogan experience. What is that lawsuit that I see that's going on right now? The criminal trial with the dude from the Fugees. What is that? Do you know that story? He was an FBI snitch. Yeah, but I think he's a double agent. What? Because apparently Tupac said back in the day he knew he was an FBI or something like that. Tupac said he was FBI back in the day? So was he?
