Rapper Gravy Shot By His Own Homie
Almost two weeks ago, a Brooklyn rapper that goes by Gravy was shot in the rear by an unknown gunman in front of the Hot 97 radio station. However, a video tape of the shooting shows an unidentified member of Gravy’s crew pointing a gun at the Hot 97 building, after which he looks away and fires a shot. Police think that’s what hit Gravy in the ass. Add that to the list of benefits of being a rapper:

New York’s Hot 97 Radio Sued for Excessive Violence
New York City’s Hot 97 is being sued by the building’s landlord because of frequent gun battles in front of the building. They are requesting that Hot 97 be evicted from the building because their rapper guests are inciting violence and engaging in delinquent behaviors “that have shocked, offended, repulsed, or threatened the safety of other tenants.”
Rappers named in the lawsuit include Capone from Capone-n-Noreaga, Lil Kim, Junior M.A.F.I.A., The Game, 50 Cent, Cam’ron, DMX, P. Diddy, Suge Knight, Jay-Z, Tony Yayo, Nas and Funkmaster Flex. Also named was rapper Gravy, who was shot in the butt in front of Hot 97 last week.
Can’t we all just get along?
Highlight: DMX, known for always acting like a respectable gentleman, was involved in an altercation with a security guard that wouldn’t let his friend in. DMX responded in his characteristic kind and gentle way: “F*** you, $8.50 an hour fa***t. If you step outside I’ll kick your f***ing a** you bi**h.“
