Atlanta rap duo Field Mob have been the victims of rumors lately as video footage of Shawn J and Smoke allegedly dissing New York rappers circulated the web.
The video, which first made its appearance on YouTube.com, was created using portions of the Raw Report DVD Magazine Platinum Plus Series: Ludacris Presents Disturbing the Peace, which was edited down to a two minute false depiction of the rappers "dissing" New York. In particular, two portions of the video were used. In one portion, the group pokes fun at New York slang. This was filmed while the group was on their tour bus, and was actually a joke between the group and their manager, who is from New York. The second part of the video shows Field Mob discussing the phrase “we gotta bring New York back.” In the context of the original DVD footage these comments simply show Field Mob expressing concern that the underlying sentiments behind the phrase are aimed at demeaning the recent rise of Southern Hip-Hop. These two sections were edited together to create a fabricated controversy that doesn’t exist.
Both Field Mob's label and management are located in New York, and the companies deny the rumors that Field Mob was dissing New York rappers. Disturbing Tha Peace released a statement addressing the issue that reads: The video that has made its way to message boards across the net of Field Mob dissing New York rappers is false. Field Mob in no way has any beef with anyone in New York. In fact, people from Field Mob's label and management, DTP are from New York. Check out this clip to see the real footage from The Raw Report. The original footage in its entire length has been posted on Field Mob's official artist page ( www.fieldmob.com) and Myspace page ( www.myspace.com/fieldmob).
