bigted Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 Daily Hip-Hop News: Breaking News: Gunfire Erupts At Busta Rhymes Video Shoot, One Man Dead Sunday - February 5, 2006 by Rich Rock SOHH.com has learned that gunfire erupted on the set of a Busta Rhymes video shoot early this morning in the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn, NY, leaving one mad dead on the sidewalk. One man, a bodyguard who worked for the studio, is dead. The shootout took place shortly after midnight this morning outside of the Kiss The Cactus Production studio in Brooklyn where over 200 people were on the scene for the Busta video shoot. Fourteen shots were fired from what is believed to have been an AK-47 assault rifle killing one and leaving a nearby Dodge Durango SUV riddled with five bullets. The police found the 30-year-old hispanic bodyguard dead on the sidewalk in front of the production studio with one gunshot to the chest. It is unclear whether the shooting had any direct relations to Busta. Police are examining the video from nearby cameras to find more information. This is not the first shooting close call for Busta Rhymes. On February 21, 2003, Busta's SUV was riddled with bullets as it sat parked outside the Violator Records/Management offices in the Chelsea area of Manhattan. Busta and a company executive went into the Violator offices at about 10pm that night and came out eighteen minutes later to find the vehicle shot up on the passenger side. Thankfully, no one was in the car. SOHH.com will have more on this story as it develops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfuqua23 Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 How do you be more careful when bullets are fired at you? I seriously doubt Busta has any gangsta ties of any kind. It may have been indirect, or somebody is out to get Busta for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel Amor Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 I mean like careful in like hiring more bodyguards and watch 4 ppl that look shady. I never heard of busta having ties with gangstas. It probably is just sum guy or maybe ppl that are out 2 get him 4 sum reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JumpinJack AJ Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 That's awful. Busta is one of my favorite emcees...but i think he makes himself 2 touchable. He needs 2 sit back and look at his friends and their actions. He's a good guy on the top of his game and in a great position 2 represent true Hip-Hop 2 those who know nothing about it. My prayers go out 2 the family of the victim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cozmo D Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 Funny, I haven't heard a word about this yet. :hmm: Yeah Sweet, I'm in Brooklyn but I'm nowhere near Greenpoint. I'm betting that this has nothing to do with Busta though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
