FBI report on Murder Inc raids

Officials confirm the FBI and NYPD raided Murder Inc's studio and offices, with no arrests at the premises but two men arrested elsewhere in the wider investigation.

Officials yesterday confirmed they had raided The Crackhouse, a recording studio belonging to New York record label Murder Inc, as well as the label’s offices. As reported yesterday the raids, that took place on Friday, are part of FBI investigations into the relationship between label boss Irv Gotti and a New York drug gang called the ‘Supreme Team’,

According to FBI reports no one was arrested during the raids, which were conducted jointly by the FBI and NYPD, though two men were arrested elsewhere in connection with the larger investigation. The two are suspected to be associated of the drug gang, though it’s not known if they have any connections with the label.

Murder Inc, and parent companies Def Jam and Universal Music Group, are yet to comment on the raids.
