14 DAY TRIAL // Whatever the key to the perfect crime might be, it certainly doesn’t involve bragging about murder in a rap song. Antwain Steward of Newport News, Va., aka Twain Gotti, learned that the hard way and is now getting ready for a long stint behind bars.
The Daily Press reports that a 2007 double homicide case had actually gone cold when police stumbled across a rap song called “Hip Full of Gun,” by a rapper named Twain Gotti.
You can listen to it at the link, but *please be advised that discretion is highly recommended because of language that might offend.
It includes lyrics like, “Everybody saw when I [expletive]-ing choked him. But nobody saw when I [expletive]-ing smoked him, roped him, sharpened up the shank then I poked him… had me crackin up so I joked him, it is betweezy six feet ova, told ya [expletive] with my money I'll roast ya.”
Twain Gotti was actually the stage name of Antwain Stewart, who had actually committed the murders and, yes, he was boasting about it in his song. He was 16 at the time.
“Antwain Steward, 22, is charged with two counts of murder, malicious wounding and firearms charges in the deaths of Brian Dean, 20, and Christopher Horton, 16. The two were gunned down May 10, 2007, at 23rd Street and Orcutt Avenue,” the Daily Press reports.
