Big Naz : Eminem once jumped in crowd to fight heckler but hit the wrong guy

Eminem’s ex bodyguard, Big Naz, who has told many stories about Eminem from the beginning of his career to the top of the charts and who even wrote a book about all these stories, has recently set down with Cap Capone News for an interview and added one more story to his catalog:

Eminem once had a show in San Francisco, There was a guy in the crowd, OH MY GOD, complete riot, man. It’s a guy in the crowd that was heckling Eminem like ‘F**k you Em, you ain’t s**t, you f**kin wack,’ all that kind of stuff and Em stops the show. He said: ‘Motherf**ker what you say to me?’ He had already been drinking, I would not say he was inebriated but it was one of those things where his adrenaline is high. He is in the highest point of his show and he got somebody heck on him, talking s**t like ‘f**k you motherf**er.’ Em stps the show and he told DJ to stop the f**kin record. He said I’m gonna address thing motherf**ker right here. He said man f**k you, get the f**k out of here man, f**k you. Next thing I know, Em jumps off the stage with a flying right hook, he hit the guy, hit the wrong f**kin dude. So I jumped in, Proof jumped in, the DJ jumped in, the sound man jumped in, Interscope street team jumped in, all the acts that were the opening acts jump in. It’s like 3500 people in this place and we are fighting everybody. It is about maybe 30 of us. It’s not even…What is that? 1 percent?

It was like every other night. Em was always jumping in the crowd. Every night. Crowd surf. Sometimes you get down and get a mosh pit. But when he jumped in to fight it shocked me, I had never seen that before so when he jumped in to fight, that changed everything, because he is in the air like a damn superhero that hit the guy but he hit the wrong dude. So now he jumps in,  now he is down there fighting, he’s on the bottom of s**t kicking power. I jump in. I go to get him, I get a guy hit me in the back of my ear, so now everybody’s rushing to the front. I was like ‘F**k Em, this guy just hit me, man,’ so the guy that hit me I hit him, I cold c**k his a*s. I hit him so hard, knocked him out but the crowd had him wavering him back and forth so he didn’t get a chance to fall. So he was wavering back and forth like a dead fish in water. So then Proof jumps in, he was like ‘hey we gotta get Em.’ So we’re pulling these four guys off the Em. The last guy that’s on Em, hitting him, hitting him. So Proof goes in, he is kicking the guy, kicking the guy, Em on the bottom he giving the guy some real shot. Proof was hitting that guy so hard it sounded like somebody banging on bongos. We ended up breaking one of the guys’ ribs. Now while we’re trying to get the last guy off Em, we’re still getting hit, punched, kicked, but now we got to focus on Em, so people are getting free shots because we’re trying to focus on Em. So I take Em, I throw him back on stage, I take Proof, I throw him back on stage and there was a point where me, Young Zee and couple of guys from Outsidaz, we are back to back knocking motherf**kers out.

I was getting most shots because I was the last guy to get back to stage. It was total chaos. Riot. And when I got back to stage I said ‘we gotta get out of here right now. So now we are running to tour manager, Gus, but he stops us, he got the doorway blocked, and he said: ‘no, we gotta finish this show, cause if we don’t this motherf**kers gonna kill us. Show must go on and get your a** back there and finish the show.’ So we got back, Proof got the mic and addressed the crowd and then people in the crowd stopped fighting and then Em kicks ‘Just Don’t Give a F**K’ and ‘Still Don’t Give A F**k’ and crowd goes absolutely nuts! Even though we had fights and riots, this was the most memorable show. It was all over the news the next day. I would do it again. It was a good time.

Royce 5’9″ reacts on Lil Wayne endorsing Donald Trump

Royce Da 5’9 has always been naming Lil Wayne as one of the Top 5 rappers alive but couple of days ago Cash Money legend surprised some of his fans and his peers by endorsing the president of the United States, Donald Trump.

Few days ago, Weezy shared a photo of himself and Donald Trump  in front of an American flag, on which Royce 5’9″ couldn’t help himself but address it on Instagram.

Royce re-shared the photo of Wayne and Trump and made it very clear that he misses old Lil Tunechi by quoting one of the lines from one of his biggest hits “6 Foot 7 Foot,” off Tha Carter IV (2011).

“This is not the Iconic Genius that said ‘B**ch, real G’s move in silence like lasagna’. Nope. I rebuke you, Satan … Stay away from our GOATS.. And Wayne would have NEVER worn a shirt to the White House.”

Papoose: “It would be an honor to work with Eminem”

New York rapper Papoose has recently set down  Gray Rizzy’s to promote his new album “Endangered Species.” The two also talked about Eminem. When Rizzy asked about his dream collaboration, here is what Papoosa responded:

“Oh, man. I can not say it’s come close but I actually did meet Eminem before, you know what I’m saying. I met him when we did the BET performance and you know just being a fan of his lyricism, I was surprised he knew who I was, you know what I mean, ‘yo what’s up Pap,’ that’s somebody I would love to work with, I would love to do a track with him, that would be like an honor, I could scratch that off my bucket list, you know what I mean. Real talk.”

“I always buy all his albums. I make sure I buy them. And when Eminem is working on albums I noticed that he just reaches out to random artists and like ‘Yo I want you on a hook.’ You do not have to be a big artist. So I am like ‘Yo man, my phone is open brother. I would love to get that call bro. Real talk.”
