MY SERIES PAINTINGS RAPPERS A-Z LETTER "C"


"C" is For C-Bo

Shawn Thomas (born January 14, 1974), better known by his stage name C-Bo, is an American rapper. He was born and raised in the Gardens area of Southern Sacramento, California. He has sold over 3.5 million albums independently since 1993. He is currently signed to Ca$hville Records.[1] C-BO, notoriously known for his relationship with law enforcement, was one of the first rappers to be jailed due to his lyrical content, a scathing critique of political officials and police on his track "Deadly Game", and unsuccessfully argued for appeal 3 times, while gaining nationwide attention for arguably his most successful mainstream album.[2] He was arrested in California in 1998, under the suspicion that his violent rap lyrics violated his parole. He then in Ohio, rapped his court statement to the presiding judge, who gave C-Bo probation on the condition that he also rap in a Public Service Announcement.[3]
