Guilty Simpson Turned Away At Canadian Border

Guilty Simpson spoke with Now Toronto about why he wasn’t able to make the Stones Throw concert over the weekend at the Opera House, chalking it up to a youthful indiscretion which occurred more than ten years ago that Canadian authorities haven’t forgiven him for. “Me and my crew were involved in some drama in a Windsor bar,” the Detroit rapper recalled. “I was young and stupid, but I paid my debt to society years ago and haven’t had any legal trouble since. Yet when I tried to cross the border recently, I was refused entry. I’m going to get my lawyer on the case to sort things out. I just wanna be able to do my thing when my ‘Ode To The Ghetto’ album drops in February.” Read an interview with Simpson’s Stones Throw labelmate Percee P at nowtoronto.com.
