A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie was supposed to be at the Queens Center Mall in New York City on Friday (March 8), but before he arrived all hell broke loose. A-Boogie was scheduled for a wristband-only event at the Puma store at 5:30 p.m. local time.
However, authorities told CBS New York more people showed up to the event than the space could accommodate, which led to pushing and fighting. In video footage of the melee, several people throw numerous punches and repeatedly kick one another.
Witness Maria Moncada said, “They grabbed the chairs and broke it on his head, the poor guy was bleeding. It was bad.”
The chaos erupted around 2 p.m. local time as hundreds of teens were waiting to catch a glimpse of the Bronx-bred rapper. Police haven’t figured out why the fights broke out. They were called to the scene when far more people showed up than mall security guards were expecting.
Witness Maria Moncada said, “They grabbed the chairs and broke it on his head, the poor guy was bleeding. It was bad.”
The event was officially canceled. NYPD said people in the crowds didn’t believe the event was canceled so additional officers were dispatched to the scene to start evacuating people. Despite police presence, the brawls continued.
Another witness said, “They fought in Foot Locker, and people were stealing shirts while they were fighting.”
At least two people were taken into custody, while five others were reportedly taken to the hospital.
A-Boogie addressed the incident on one of his Instagram Stories, writing, “The safety of my fans is the most important thing to me. I’m glad everyone is safe. NYC thanks for a great homecoming week. Love. Be good to each other!”
They came for da hoodie they got da hoodie
Whatthafruckhesposedtosay, Eh?
I woulda stomped his ass out
HEY PSA the safety of my fans is the most imporant things but yet ill rap and rhyme about how lifes are meaningless and dont matter and can be taken over monetary items woop dont get what the dumb fuckers expect with fans when all these numb nuts do is preach violence and not respecting your fellow man who woulda thought the people who listen to this shit dont have any regard for anybody
This is lack of parenting. I grew up listening to guys like Ice-T, Naughty By Nature, NWA, PE, etc. and never got into shit like this. If people can’t distinguish entertainment from reality, it isn’t the entertainer who’s at fault.
Explain that to pac and biggie bein dead and so many others from that era its not just parenting when all ya preach is violence sub conciously it just brings violence and negativity its why people who listen to nothing but hiphop are the most likely to commit a drive by or rob ya for your J’s just like people who listened to simon and garfunkle and the doors were likely to trip acid be stoned as fuck and preach peace and love what we surround ourselfs with influences who we are some maybe are effected more than others some maybe get pumped up by it go work out or some shit others ride to the shit on the way to shoot somebody when we just make it OK to be forceful and violent its what we end up with unfortunatley and when we make these men millionaires off their violent concepts we are just encouraging violence hatred death and discord
Well you need to kiss entertainment as a whole goodbye then. There is violence in books, movies, music, video games etc. None of that shit should be raising you to the point where that’s the basis of your values. Insecurity, discipline and general lack of respect for one another is the issue here. And I would wager the household probably doesn’t offer these fools much in terms of values to learn from.
Another good look for black youth culture. Keep guaranteeing Trump gets re-elected. Ugh
Hey
Hey zaddy with your fine ass a
