A colorful list of characters enters in and out of the action as our lovable dirt bag navigates from the beautiful penthouses of South Beach, to the seediest alleys in Little Havana. As if that wasn't enough to worry about, he has to juggle between his girlfriend, his lover and a sexy mamasita waitress with a heart of gold and a body to match. If the thugs don't kill him, surely one of these femme fatales will. Porkchop and a glass of water is an ultra low budget film that shows you the real Miami not seen in Hollywood movies. There's much more to Miami than South Beach, and this film shows it to you like only a local can.

Ricky Walters[1] (born
14 January 1965), better known by his stage name Slick Rick, is a Grammy-nominated
English rapper. He has also been known as
Rick the Ruler ,
MC Ricky D and
Ricky Dee. He began his career in late
1983, in the hip hop genre, where he recorded a series of acclaimed recordings such as "
La Di Da Di" and "
Children's Story". He is known for the use of narrative in his raps and has been called "hip hop's greatest storyteller."[2]
Slick Rick rose to stardom in an era known to fans as the
Golden age of hip hop. His music has been frequently sampled and interpolated by other artists such as
TLC,
Black Star,
The Notorious B.I.G.,
Snoop Dogg, and
Color Me Badd, with many of these songs later becoming hit
singles. About.com ranked him #12 on their list of the Top 50 MCs of
Our Time,[3] while
The Source ranked him #15 on their list of the Top 50 Lyricists of All
Time.
In
1990, Walters shot his cousin,
Mark Plummer, and a bystander. Plummer had previously been Walters' bodyguard and later admitted to having Walters shot outside a club. Walters was indicted on two counts of attempted murder and pled guilty to all charges, which included assault, use of a firearm, and criminal possession of a weapon. He spent five years in prison, two for the then second degree attempted murder charges he received for the shooting, and three for his struggle with the
Immigration and Naturalization Services over his residency in the US. He was released from prison in
1997.[7]
After being bailed out by
Russell Simmons, Walters recorded his second
album,
The Ruler's Back, released in
1991. The album received mixed reviews and wasn't as commercially successful as his debut
. In the documentary film,
The Show, Russell Simmons interviewed Walters while he was imprisoned on
Rikers Island.[8]
Walters' third studio album
Behind Bars was released in
1994, while he was still incarcerated. It was met with lukewarm sales and reviews. He was released from prison in
1996.
Walters remained with the
Def Jam label, and on May 25,
1999, released a fourth album entitled
The Art of Storytelling. Generally considered the authentic follow up to his
1988 debut, The Art of Storytelling was an artistically successful comeback album that paired him with prolific MCs like Nas, OutKast,
Raekwon, and Snoop Dogg among others.
After performing on a
Caribbean cruise ship in June
2001, Walters was arrested by the
Immigration and Naturalization Service (
INS) as he re-entered the
United States through
Florida. He was promptly told that he was being deported under a law allowing deportation of foreigners convicted of felonies.
Rick was continuously refused bail, but after 17 months in prison he was released on
November 7, 2003.[9][10] In
October 2006, the
Department of Homeland Security began a new attempt to deport Walters back to
England,[11] moving the case from the
United States Court of Appeals for the
Second Circuit based in
New York to the more conservative
Eleventh Circuit. The court is based in
Atlanta, Georgia but the trial was expected to proceed in Florida, where immigration agents originally arrested Walters.
On May 23, 2008,
New York Governor David Paterson granted Slick Rick a full and unconditional pardon on the attempted murder charges. The governor was pleased with his behavior since the mishap. Slick Rick has volunteered his time to mentor kids about violence

Slick Rick Posed in Fake Louis Vuitton and Twitter Roasted the Legend Accordingly
ven legends aren't safe from Twitter slander these days. On Sunday,
Slick Rick, along with a lineup full of rap legends, performed at the
Shoreline Amphitheatre in
Mountain View, Calif. for Ice T's
Art of Rap Festival. While the Ruler was waiting to hit the stage, he took to his Instagram to post a photo of him stuntin' (dique) on these young whippersnappers backstage. In said pic, he's wearing what seems to be a
Louis Vuitton bowling shirt designed by
Dapper Dan, a purple cloth hanging from his side like a pirate, some custom black shoes with purple fringe flaps, and a bunch of gaudy jewelry that may or may not be fake (can't confirm.)

(2003) CBS 4 Miami's Shomari Stone Breaks Slick Rick Incarceration Case
(
2003)
CBS Miami Reporter Shomari
Stone broke the
Slick Rick Incarceration case. A source tipped Stone off.
Stone drove to
Bradenton, FL and exclusively interviewed the
Hip Hop Pioneer. The report ultimately lead to Slick Rick's freedom.
New York Governor David Patterson gave Slick Rick a full pardon on May 23, 2008, ending a deportation threat that has hung over the rapper for 11 years. According to
The New York Times,
Governor Patterson delivered the pardon to prevent the MC from being deported to
England, where he was born and lived until the age of 11.
In
1991, Slick Rick (
Ricky Walters) was convicted of attempted murder and weapons charges after he shot and injured his cousin and an acquaintance.
Rick served five years and 12 days in prison before being paroled in
1997, but a law that threatens to deport immigrants convicted of aggravated felony or weapons charges had always loomed large.
In
2002, Slick Rick was arrested aboard a docked
Caribbean cruise ship — by the
INS, who had been fighting for his deportation since
1995. He spent a year in an immigration detention center in
Bradenton, Florida, before a judge ruled he could go free in 2003.
