He's referring to the Soul Train feud between Rick and Don Cornelius.

I think he's referring to Rick's reputation (thanks to Charlie Murphy's True hollywood stories) for being crazy and tearing things up, and then last year (?) Don Cornelius was arrested for some sort of public or domestic disturbance.

The line before says:
'what that boy doin?
why he makin' that face?
Don't he know I got crazy friends
Ready to tear up this place?'


Then he says '(it?)be like Don Cornelius and Rick James!'


I doubt he knew of a Soul Train feud or whatever, as it isn't really highly publicized enough to reference it. At least that's my take on the whole thing.
