This is quickly reaching critical mass...
Sandusky Catholic priest stuff.
What is just horrible it seems like MANY of these old schools these past months have been on the comeback trail...
the Macklemore video and MTV performance, Puba, Positive K, Stetasonic and the podcasts with Bam, Kangol Kid Roxanna Shante KRS, Chuck D, Bumpy Knuckles, NWA, Ice T etc...
I really saw the potential for another rap renaissance and a show of respect for our roots, our elders...
and then THIS happens.

Afrika Bambaataa Calls Sexual Abuse Claims 'Baseless and Cowardly'
"These allegations are baseless and are a cowardly attempt to tarnish my reputation and legacy in hip-hop at this time," producer-DJ says
Hip hop pioneer Afrika Bambaataa has denied accusations that he sexually abused a former member of his Universal Zulu Nation. In a statement to Rolling Stone, Bambaataa says the accusations levied upon him by Ronald Savage "are baseless and are a cowardly attempt to tarnish my reputation and legacy in hip-hop at this time."
In Savage's self-published memoir Impulse Urges and Fantasies, the former music exec accuses Bambaataa of molesting him when he was 15; Bambaataa was 23 years old at the time of the first alleged incident. The Bronx-raised Savage served as a "crate boy" – the nickname for neighborhood kids who helped haul records for DJs – before becoming friends with the Planet Rock musician and the Zulu Nation.
“It was just about fun, hanging out, listening to music,” Savage told the Daily News, who first reported on Savage's claims. “I had a big name on the street. I was the youngest of the Zulu Nation. Nobody bothered me back then because nobody messed with the Zulu Nation."
However, after Savage cut school one afternoon to hang out at Bambaataa's apartment, the first alleged incident took place, with Savage accusing the DJ of fondling him. On another occasion, Savage accuses Bambaataa of forcing him to give oral sex to another Zulu Nation member. "I hated myself," Savage said. "I don't even know why I did that. I don’t even know how he got me to do that. It was like I was hypnotized." Savage eventually parted ways with the Zulu Nation.
In a statement to the Daily News, Bambaataa's lawyer Vivian Kimi Tozaki dismissed the accusations laid forth in Savage's memoir. “Defamatory statements were published seeking to harm my client’s reputation so as to lower him in the estimation of the community while deterring others from associating or dealing with him," she said. "The statements show a reckless disregard for the truth, were published with knowledge of their falsity and are being made by a lesser-known person seeking publicity."
Chuck Freeze of the Jazzy Five, a one-time Zulu Nation associate, confirmed that Savage was a member of the collective in the mid-Eighties to the Daily News. Savage provided the newspaper with an audiotape of what he claims contains a conversation between himself and two members of the Zulu Nation who offered him $50,000 to keep his allegations quiet. "Neither of the two men were given authority to speak on Bam’s behalf," Tozaki said, adding that she had no knowledge of the taped conversation.
Rather than seeking money, Savage says he hopes his plight will convince lawmakers to change the current statute of limitations on sexual abuse charges; the current New York law bars child sexual abuse victims from pursuing criminal charges or civil penalties after their 23rd birthday.
"In the name of the Supreme Force, who is called by many names, whom All Praise is due. Good Spiritual Human, I pray for all of you and ask in returns your prayers, and let us all do what we must to help change our ways on how we treat each other in evilness, to respect and love for each other as Humans Beings," Bambaataa continues in his statement. "May Peace and Blessings be upon each and everyone of you. Who would stand up to save us and our planet with so much chaos going on? Peace, Love, Honor and Respect to all."

In a statement to Rolling Stone, Bambaataa says the accusations levied upon him by Ronald Savage "are baseless and are a cowardly attempt to tarnish my reputation and legacy in hip-hop at this time."
"I, Afrika Bambaataa, want to take this opportunity at the advice of my legal counsel to personally deny any and all allegations of any type of sexual molestation of anyone," Bambaataa says in a statement to Rolling Stone. "These allegations are baseless and are a cowardly attempt to tarnish my reputation and legacy in hip-hop at this time. This negligent attack on my character will not stop me from continuing my battle and standing up against the violence in our communities, the violence in the nation and the violence worldwide."

EXCLUSIVE: Zulu Nation Replies To Afrika Bambaataa Child Molestation Accusations, Claims Government Conspiracy
In the ongoing drama surrounding Afrika Bambaataa and allegations that he molested multiple children in the 1970’s, the Zulu Nation is now striking back with their own claims of a government conspiracy.
In addition to claims of a government conspiracy, the Zulu Nation says that the NY Daily News and it’s reporters “have been compromised and controlled by U.S. government intelligence” to publicize the drama in order to specifically attack the Universal Zulu Nation.
The statement draws on former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani’s criticism of Beyonce’s Super Bowl performance, as well as Giuliani’s actions to reportedly remove the Zulu Nation from the Bronx River Projects in 1995.
Last week AllHipHop.com released an exclusive statement from Afrika’s Bambaataa’s attorney after a former New York politician identified as Ronald Savage recounted the charges in an emotional interview with radio personality Star’s Shot97.com radio show.
Ronald Savage made similar claims of oral sex in his 2014 book, “Impulse, Urges and Fantasy’s.” He claimed that Afrika Bambaataa molested him between the ages of 12-14 in the late 1970’s.
The statement comes on the heels of a third man coming forward to make sexual assault claims. The unidentified man says that the assaults happened when he was 12-years-old.
Below is a statement from the Zulu Nation’ s Zulu King Bro. Shep:
The UZN Department of Community Affairs unequivocally views this most recent U.S. government sponsored media attack on both The Universal Zulu Nation in general and it’s co-founder Afrika Bambaataa in particular, as nothing more than a continuation of it’s decades long “HIP HOP COINTELPRO” campaign to discredit and destroy the Universal Zulu Nation.
Indeed, during the past 42 year legacy of the UZN under the leadership of Afrika Bambaataa the UZN was unjustifiably removed from the Bronx River Projects in 1995 by the then Mayor Rudolph Guiliani with his N.Y.P.D. initiated “Operation Commitment” and even today is still unjustifiably labeled and monitored by the N.Y.P.D. as a violent street gang in order to prevent young people from associating with it’s internationally respected non-violent, educational and community uplifting Youth Leadership Department.
Too, there is absolutely no doubt that with the Universal Zulu Nation’s press conference and public criticism of that very same Rudolph Guiliani racist attack on recording artist and actress Beyonce Knowles and her anti-police terror & tribute to the Black Panther Party 50th Anniversary “Formation” Superbowl halftime performance; that Guiliani, the P.B.A. and the N.Y.P.D. also have a hand in this most recent attempt to destroy and demonize the U.Z.N. as being an organization of “cop hating sexual predators”
Additionally, asinine statements to the N.Y. Daily News by the obviously paid agent provocateur and “fired” Hot 97 & Power 95, D.J. Troi “Star” Torain that… “He believes the allegations to be true” are nothing more than an unemployed nobody attempting to emulate the mentally challenged Ronald Savages book selling lies by promoting his own online radio show in order to hopefully return to the sellout/payola Hip Hop radio circuit that he was kicked out of due to pressures from the community and members of the Universal Zulu Nation for both his on air disrespect in the tragic death of recording artist and actress Ailiyah and his own racist anti-asian “sexual predator” remarks to assault the 4 year old daughter of then City Counsel member and current NYC Comptroller John Liu.
We have no doubt that a combination of our ever growing international UZN Chapters throughout Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, South America, North America and; Our ongoing diplomatic relationships with the anti-imperialist peoples governments of Cuba, Venezuela and Tanzania have all no doubt made us a COINTELPRO target by the U.S. government, mainstream media and the global 1% capitalist powers that be.
In tomorrow’s second installment of this three part response we will expose the fact that D.J. Troi “Star” Torain is a government paid agent provocateur and that his Zulu Nation expert “Poppy aka Baby B.O.” is both a liar and a government paid police informant.
Furthermore, we will show how the N.Y. Daily News and it’s so-called objective reporters in this matter have been compromised and controlled by U.S. government intelligence in order to produce and promote this trial by media assault on the Universal Zulu Nation.
