According to Associated Press, police feel that lyrics from the single such as "Freeze, you know who it is / It's me, snitches" and "I ain't gonna shoot ya / I could just choke ya" advocate violence and anti-snitching -- a concern the city's police feel helps silence potential informants in on of the nation's most notorious cities.
 
Swizz Beatz, however, has an explanation, and says he would have never agreed to participate in the event if that's what his intentions were in his lyrics.
