After reports of hit-making producer Polow Da Don being robbed at gunpoint last night hit the net, the Atlanta-based producer released a press release about the story.
Early reports say masked gunmen broke in on a recording session and forced him and a group of men alongside him to the floor. It’s been speculated that Polow and the other Zone 4 affiliates in the studio were robbed of money and jewelry but no one was hurt.
Polow released a statement this afternoon calling his attackers weak and saying their attempt failed.
“They thought they came to rob me, but I have heart and I have God shawty …These crack head ass n*ggaz I guess called themselves robbing me, but we robbed them. I wasn’t scared I was mad,” Polow said via his Blackberry. “I was likes ‘these dumb ass, weak ass n*ggas.’ n*ggas don’t get it. You gone have to shoot me because until then, I don’t believe you. I am a man and nine times out of 10, a n*gga calling himself a robba, a thug or a gangsta is a cover up for being too weak (whether it be physically, spiritually or mentally) to be a man. It’s hard to learn how to be a man. Luckily, my teacher stuck with me … Thanks Dad, I love you! Kids, do you know where your father is right now?”
The producer is still in good spirits and doesn’t plan on letting last night’s incident get in the way of his success.
“By the way, don’t let this negativity overshadow the celebration of having the No. 1 song in the country,” Polow said, referencing the Usher and Jeezy collabo he produced, “Love in the Club.”
