A look at the funniest, most entertaining, and outrageous tweets from some of the biggest names in hip hop.

This hasn't been a great week in America. Beloved comedian and actor Robin Williams passed away under particularly tragic circumstances at the age of 63. Plus, we saw a blatant violation of the first amendment at the protests in Ferguson, Mo., where unarmed African-American male Mike Brown was slain by cops. Although rappers sometimes don't abide by normal people logic, they're still human beings in America. Some felt and reacted to the circumstances accordingly.

While those two stories took are the main headlines, some rappers carried on with their typical dealings. One got out of line and issued a death threat (which pretty much means you won't carry through unless you really snitched on yourself). This edition of 140 Bars Or Less: Tweets Of The Week finds artists going through a range of emotions.
