Episode Summary

A security guard is found dead after shots ring out at a rap star's concert and the CSIs must investigate. Rap star 10-Large won't talk to the police regarding the murder or why someone would try to kill him. But when evidence suggests that perhaps 10-Large's bodyguard was the intended target, the CSIs must look into the dangerous world of personal security. Meanwhile, Alexx gets the shock of her life when a supposed cadaver from a recent car accident wakes up in her morgue, suffering only from hypothermia.moreless

  • CSI:Miami - Rap Sheet One of the best episodes of CSI: Miami. This episode needs more air time because it may help to minimize gang activity if viewed enough by prospective and active gang members.moreless

    I have watched this episode twice now and I just can not get enough. I wish they would show it more, like they do the other episodes. It is an older episode, but perhaps the message within might deter some of the "want to be gang bangers" from moving into that type of life style. I keep hoping that it will be aired over, and over and over again.

    All of the actors did such a fabulous job. It seemed as though you were living the drama.

    The actor Xzibit is a fine actor and his charisma draws you into the scenes. I hope that he will become a permanent addition to the CSI cast one day. Xzibit would truly be an asset to this series, especially since he will now have the experience of being cast as an agent in the new X-files movie.moreless

    This episode was pretty boring it reminded me of the latest episode of CSI Las Vegas Popin' Tags (yes I know this came first but I did watch Popin Tags before I got the chance to watch Rap Sheet).

    I found the case of the woman suffering from Hypothermia & waking up in the morgue giving everyone a scare more interesting, but also has been done before on CSI Las Vegas.
