I can honestly say that this whole situation has finally come to a close. We heard the allegations less than a week ago, and we got statements from both Lil Fame and M.O.P.’s manager. Now the victim of this whole fiasco, Philly producer Kil, is releasing his own statement wrapping up this whole ordeal. Check it out after the cut…
From Kil:
Just got off the phone with Fame and everything’s good. We spoke for about 10 minutes (real cool dude) about how the credits got messed up and how he would NEVER steal another nigga’s beat and how they’re gonna do what they gotta do to make things right so @ the end of the day, everything is everything. I’m gonna be properly credited and get my publishing and Lil Fame’s name is cleared as far as beat jacking goes. Looking back @ the situation, I could have handled it better and tried to get @ those dudes first and not go the internet route but truth be told, anybody out there who’s ever been robbed, or feel they’ve been wronged will know…you may not be thinking in the right frame of mind when things go down. Fame, even said he would’ve been pissed and probably did the same thing if he thought someone robbed him for one of his beats. At the end of the day, I gotta give MOP props because I’ve heard stories of cats getting jacked for YEARS and you never hear anything from the alleged beat jacker, no matter how much bad press they receive but this time MOP stepped up to the plate, admitted the mistake with the credits and like I said both parties win. So I gotta salute those dudes and tell everyone to go out and support that Foundation album and keep supporting MOP….from the conversations I’ve had with their camp they’re some real dudes. I wanna thank EVERYBODY for the support, the emails, the in boxes, the texts, the phone calls, etc. because I had NO idea that when I sent my email that the response would be like this! I also wanna thank those blogs, websites, forums, chat rooms, etc. (especially Kevinnottingham.com who was VERY instrumental in helping both parties sit down to work out the confusion) for running with my story…The best part about this is I’ve got placement on one of my favorite group’s album…CRAZY! Also, I’ve come out the stone age and got a myspace, twitter and facebook account so if cats want to get @ me and check out some more of my music you can hit me @ Kil889@hotmail.com, www. myspace.com/kil889 (uploaded some of my tracks on myspace), Facebook www.profile.to/kil889/ and the Twitter account is www.twitter.com/Kil889…so get @ me so we can make some music! Good looking again…

Awesome, I’ve been watching this ordeal go down from a distance and I’m glad everything was settled. Kev, great job of getting this going and putting some heat on MOP (also one of my favorite groups) to respond and do the right thing.

Props to Kev
good f*kin work kev fa real man…and good looks fro removing that leak on sky’s joint man…..
“All’s well that end’s well!!!” Glad this had a relatively happy ending and MOP “manned up” on the situation at the end of the day, too. GOD BLESS your future, Kil!!! PEace
well done man!
These MOP niggas got fat n sloppy!!! I had a lot of respect for these niggas!!! These niggas all of a sudden got lazy n shit!!! Niggas thought by signin’ wit G-unit it was money in the bank!!! These niggas ain’t put out shit then!!! Get back on the job niggas!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
word up, this is great
I won’t jump to conclusions here yet though. I’m always skeptic
but this is dope
YO Kil, Maybe some future work w/ M.O.P.? I think that will be a great consolation. Its obvious ur worthy
That’s a real nice ending to a potentially tricky situation, people from outside of hip-hop often look at us as Neanderthal’s with no concept of normal social behavior, but MOP have shown that sitting down and sorting out a problem amicably isn’t something reserved just for men in sharp suits!
Good to see grown men act like grown men.

this made my day. nice to see the internet being used in a positive way. just yeah…great
I went to kil’s myspace and that niggas beats are wack!! I think he got lucky wth that placement! That nigga aint gonna sell another beat…period.
Doesn’t matter if you think his beats are wack…. M.O.P. liked it enough to put on their album. I think that says enough…
I gotta say, Kil, your joint is too dope! For real I think it’s my favourite out of their album. Respect
thats some real shit right there, all they had to do was deny deny deny untill it blew over, but they handled that shit like any real man would, big props to homey who got his joint on that album, its always nice to see fellow up and coming musicians gettin a legitiment shot at doin somethin wit what they love
always was a huge fan of the real ass music they put out, good to see the one of the few who actually are real behind that music
yo Kev you were real instrumental in all of this, major props to you! Kil, you’re the FIRST ive heard about to put da allegation out there and actually get some retribution for that. Congratulations dog i’m happy for you. keep doin ya thing. nice to see MOP step up to the plate and address it as well. Finally a happy ending for all parties involved.
