Photos and breaking news by Andrew "She" Bangs

The LAUSD kids we've nurtured though the years usually have one name on their lips: Fitty Cint! 50's beef with our own homegrown rap exports were much less dramatic than what TACO foreign correspondant Andrew "She" Bangs delivered to us this morning in the form of gullwings and a seated Fifty about to be cuffed and abducted by the NYPD on 8th Ave.

As long as 50's not pointing anything on our streets, at our rappers, TACO wishes him a speedy release!
