Rapper Fat Tone's Killer Sentenced

There's a new chapter in the war between West Coast and Midwest rappers. And this time it's Kansas City that's getting some justice, in the form of a murder conviction.

A jury in Las Vegas on Monday found Andre “Mac Minister” Dow guilty of murder and conspiracy to commit murder for killing KC rapper Anthony “Fat Tone” Watkins and his friend Jermaine “Cowboy” Akins in 2005. Dow shot Watkins and Akins after luring them to a supposed meeting with Snoop Dogg. The jury gave him two life sentences.

Next week, Dow's friend Jason Mathis goes on trial for the same charges. Prosecutors say Dow and Mathis killed Akins and Watkins out of revenge for the 2004 Kansas City shooting of Andre “Mac Dre” Hicks of Vallejo, California.

Rumors flew around in the rap community that Watkins was linked to the shooting of Hicks, despite the fact that he had an alibi and was cleared as a suspect. Unfortunately, the rap war between the West Coast and the Midwest was stronger than his alibi, and he and Akins were shot and killed in Las Vegas.

First of all to set all this nonsense str8, Fat Tone and Mac Dre both go hard here in KC, KCK & in Cali. Bo Loc & Tay Capone don't fucc wit no offbrand, pootbutt, lame ass, cotton ball ass ni99az & the same wit ni99az round here. The record needs to be set str8 they both died for bogus ass reasons and it is a damn shame that Dre was killed over a concert and a lil bit of cash, Dre & Tone are legends in my book, and if Tone was such the bitch that ni99az tried to make him out to be then why was C Bo & Killa Tay fuccin wit him. Real recognine real, some of these ni99az are as bad as these caucasians that try to fuck up ni99az credibility cuz a nigga done came up and got somethin goin for theyselves, that's a hater which is no different than a snicth, ni99az need to take dem nikes out they grill and quit runnin they mouth get cha mind right playboy & that goes 4 KC & Cali ni99az cuz both really do have a lot in common we both have real reptables in our towns we got Rich, Rush, Rappin, Fat Tone, Skiem Heim, Tech, Byrd, D Loc, Dalima, Tha Popper & Calico, and to keep it all the way 1 hunnid other than Mac Dre they got Tay, Bo, Lynch, Yuk, E-40, San Quinn, Coleone, X-Raided, Marvaless, Messy, Guce & Amp and a few other bay area ni99az I 4got to mention so what it all boils down to in the end what im tryin to say is FUCC the beef, it's all about the bread. Get up on that! KCK & KCMO. Like Rich said some of u ni99az is square as a box chevy the 86 model

You guys are a bunch of fags im gonna do this when i see him im gonna do that when i see him Bunch of fuckin internet wannabee thugs We all Know Tone didnt do it quit acting like Either one is more significant than the other Dre was Sick Tone was Sick.The only real bitch in this scenario Is Fag ass Mac Minister who had to hang on tones balls make him think theyre homies then kill him Hes as bad at murder as he was at rapping not to mention such a coward he couldnt handle it like a g and beef like everyone else he had to hide his cowardice by riding tones balls long enough to gain his trust than betray him fuck choppa chop and to Equipto up there nickatina isnt dead you retard anyone halfway smart could tell Dre was Classic Case of Collateral damage it wasnt about dre at all but someone had to pay for his death and cali opted to take KCs Finest with the exception of Tech n9ne They traded one of vallejos finest for one of Kcs Which would explain why they didnt bother with Rich The Fagtor and its gotta be hard to have beef with Tech hes to chill and lastly back to my original point if you're submitting comments on this site you arent a gangster so quit tryin you just make yourselves sound ignorant So to clear things up im not tryin to be hard i just cant stand people who spend there lives trying to be something they never will be so if this bothers you the fairytale is over wannabee and if youre a real g and you know who you are dont trip because this isnt going out to you RIP to Both Tone and dre

Mac Dre was and IS still a califonia bay area legend ad a hog boss, you know , and Fat tone was a talented Mid-west rapper and a legend, but both had so much to do in their lives and they both had 1 thing in common, they rap for the fans, but the thing is their lives were cut short but they lived a good life so respect them, and if u met one of them then you were lucky and on that note R.i.p Mac dre and Fat tone ,The Westcoast bumps the midwest music over on the west and in the bay we bump Mac dre's music like we gon get hyphy so mac dre we the fans miss you cuddy no doubt man, and fat tone all you friends and fam and your fans miss you

Black men are so fucking immature. Walking around looking all pissed off for no reason. Grow up and stop acting like savages and little boys throwing temper tantrums. Tough!? Tough is getting up and going to work every morning for 40yrs. Punching someone in the face is easy. Your all a bunch of racists!
