Hip Hop DX dug up Plies background and found he has no history of running into problems with the law. Consequently, they're calling him a fraud.

The FDLE’s criminal record for Plies shows that the self-described “goon affiliated, ex drug dealer” who’s “resume solid, street cred bigger” has been arrested just twice within his home state of Florida during his adult life, with both arrests taking place two years ago.

The 32-year-old was arrested for the first time at the age of 29 on April 12, 2006 for the misdemeanor charge of resisting an officer without violence.

I don't agree (and not because I like him). Not getting caught is a good thing. Hell that would mean he was actually a smart hustler. I know a lot of guys whose been doing they're thing in the streets but are so low key nobody actually know how hard they're getting down. It's the dumb, flossy, always bragging, "not use to having shit" idiots that get caught.

I'm going to need more evidence. Lyrics to his songs don't count because he could be speaking in 3rd person about his brother/friends situations that he's witnessed. If anyone believe that rappers base all their songs on THEIR personal experiences you're naive as hell.

Like Jay Z said, "IT'S ONLY ENTERTAINMENT PEOPLE!"
