Rick James Didn’t Play That! Who Knew THIS Happened To Him In Prison?

Posted On : June 1, 2015

Aryan Nations inmate, who was heavily pumping his white power movement. The Aryan dude was some big, tattooed guy who apparently got mad because Rick James was chosen for the prison’s baseball team. So one day the Aryan cat plotted to go after Rick and he stayed behind and waited for the rest of the other players to leave the section of the prison that he knew Rick would be in after baseball practice and that’s when he went for it. The Aryan guy sucker punched Rick James in the bathroom! Now here’s where it gets interesting: what Aryan guy didn’t know was that Rick knew a lil’ somethin’ about boxing because he boxed as a youth for the YMCA and his boxing skills never left him.

When Rick felt that punch, he turned toward Mr. Aryan and straight up clobbered that guy! Word on the Old School curb is that Rick almost would have killed him if a fellow inmate hadn’t stepped in just before Rick was about to finish the dude off and say to Rick “Don’t…you only got a short time. Don’t fuck it up.” Rick took heed to his advice and let up.

Now what happened after that was something you see in the movies: Rick James and Mr. Aryan man’s fight pissed off…
