Yesterday news broke that 44-year-old Hot 97 DJ Mister Cee (real name Calvin Labrun) was arrested early last Wednesday after being caught by police while allegedly engaged in a sex act in his car with a 20-year-old named Lawrence Campbell. Despite Cee's denial tweets (which may not be his!) the story has been bouncing around the Interwebs and radio waves for the last 24 hours. And somewhat surprisingly for the often-homophobic rap community the response hasn't been nearly as nasty as it could have been.
Last night Funkmaster Flex, who came out in defense of Cee yesterday, continued his to defend his friend on his evening show, leading to a good old rant regarding the story on this morning's Breakfast Club on Power 105.1. Here's the transcript, excluding the Flex quotes,
Now yesterday we reported on Mister Cee being caught with a transvestite, we found out this morning via The [New York] Post and Daily News that he's been arrested twice before for loitering for the purpose of prostitution. Mister Cee is Funkmaster Flex's friend so Flex decided to stand up for Mister Cee last night. [Flex goes on about the Cee situation and alludes to his rivals at 105.1] You sound like an old a** wrestler. 'Whatcha gonna do, when Funkmaster Flex runs wild on you!' You the big bad wolf in the city, huh? You like to huff and puff and blow houses down. Let's be clear. You can huff and puff but the only thing getting blown down is Mister Cee by transsexuals. That is the fact of the matter. Why you mad at us because your man Mister Cee likes getting it on with transsexuals? I'm confused here. He got arrested for being with a transsexual last week, he got busted in October and November for loitering for the purpose of prostitution. Don't get mad at us, get mad at him. Tell him, 'Homie, I don't care if you like men, but move better. Don't get a prostitute, get a boyfriend. You're out here making yourself and the brand look crazy.' It's OK if he's gay but give him some brotherly advice and tell him to move a little better with it...Subliminals are so 90's. But I understand because you a 1990's type of guy. That's your era.
Meanwhile #MisterCee is trending on Twitter (leading to this lovely response) and some enterprising folks have not only dug up pictures of Cee's paramour on Facebook (apparently he likes to go by the name Brooke-Lynn) but they've also gotten a copy of the police report ("Deponent state that deponent observed Defendant Campbell manipulating defendant Lebrun's exposed, naked, and erect penis with Cambell's mouth and lips in an up-and-down motion consistent with oral sex."). Expect to hear more about this, Cee is due to appear in court on June 1.
