A Judge Releases Rapper C Blu After Posting Bail Using His Record Deal Money

Up and coming New York City rapper C Blu is out on bail.

The 16-year-old, whose real name is Camrin Williams, allegedly used his record deal advance money to make his $250,000 bail and was released on Thursday.

The NYPD’s union president expressed his outrage over the news of Blu’s bail.

“If anybody wants to know why we have a crisis of violence in the city, or why we’re about to bury two hero police officers, look no further than this disgraceful bail release,” NYC PBA President Pat Lynch said.

Lynch went on to blame Judge Denis Boyle, who also released another 16-year-old who would end up killing a 34-year-old father of two.

“Shame on Judge Denis Boyle for allowing this to happen. The people of The Bronx won’t be safe as long as he’s on the bench.”

Lucian Chalfan, the spokesman for the state office of court administration stated that the judge shouldn’t be the blame for following the law.

Blu’s attorney, Dawn Florio also spoke on the next steps for the rapper. “Camrin has been released and will be back to his regular productive life of focusing on schoolwork and his music career.”

We previously reported that C-Blu was arrested after shooting officer Kaseem Pennant. Blu was armed with an illegal firearm during the time of the arrest.

A teenage drill rapper who had his charges dropped after allegedly shooting an NYPD officer earlier this year was busted again late Tuesday with a loaded firearm, law enforcement sources told The Post.

Camrin Williams, a 17-year-old gangbanger who goes by the stage name C-Blu, was arrested at the corner of Garden Street and Crotona Avenue in the Bronx at about 11:30 p.m., the sources said.

Williams — a member of the Reywey Crew, a subset of the Crips — was stopped by cops after they spotted him running towards a car fumbling with his waistband, according to sources.

Police said the arrest unfolded as part of a car stop. Sources said the officers saw him fumbling with something in his waist band.

The teen perp allegedly had a loaded silver Bryco Arms 9mm handgun on him at the time — with a live round in the chamber and 11 rounds in the magazine, the sources said.

The hip-hop musician was charged with criminal weapons possession and obstruction of government administration, sources said. He was awaiting arraignment Wednesday afternoon. 

His mother, Monique McGriff, suggested the firearm didn’t belong to her son – and that he was unfairly targeted.

“It was another stop that shouldn’t have happened. Another stop and frisk and the same group of kids being targeted by the same cops and them finding something that didn’t belong to my son. It’s not fair at all,” she told The Post when reached by phone.
