Stunner: Sharpton Shakes People Down?


Whodathunkit?

The Democrat Party kingmaker would actually shake down another brother?

My oh my.

Of course, for even noting this, the Post will be accused of a racist plot.
A longtime confidant of rapper Dr. Dre claims the Rev. Al Sharpton threatened to march on the hip-hop icon's recording studio unless he donated a half-million dollars to charity.

Bruce Williams, Dr. Dre's former right-hand man, said the alleged extortion attempt involved Sharpton's displeasure with vulgar lyrics as well as a nasty feud between rappers 50 Cent and The Game.

"He said if we didn't have [$500,000], we marching. It's that easy," Williams said in an interview published on hiphopdx.com.

Sharpton insisted yesterday he never spoke to Dr. Dre and has no recollection of ever meeting Williams.

He called the accusation "absurd."
