Taking to Twitter after his San Diego show Wednesday night got interrupted by a man punching him in the head, the 19-year-old stated, “Security and venue set me up, I got sucker punched and knocked out, it is what it is.”
According to XXL magazine , the rapper has been fighting with fellow performer Rob Stone, who allegedly attacked Ski Mask the Slump God during a show earlier this year. A rap feud apparently led to rapper XXXTentacion getting decked mid-performance.
The identity of XXXTentacion’s attacker hasn’t been confirmed, but the rapper seemingly suggested on Twitter early Thursday morning that the man suffered “several stab wounds” and that “he might be dead in a few hours.
The San Diego performance was the sixth stop on XXXTentacion’s “Revenge” tour. In addition to facing trouble on stage, the rapper is facing prison time after he allegedly beat and strangled his pregnant girlfriend, forcibly confined her and tried bribing her not to testify against him.
During his performance Wednesday night at The Complex in Salt Lake City, Uzi got a running start before doing a massive front flip over a stage monitor and landing a good 15 feet out in the crowd. Uzi first gained national attention for his ballsy concert antics after leaping from the roof of the stage while performing at Miami's Rolling Loud Festival earlier this month. In what's quickly become a calling card for the Philadelphia rapper, Lil Uzi took another wild stage dive at a recent show.
While most in the "Nobody Safe" tour crowd have likely come to expect that Thugger would be the one to blur the lines of gender conformity, a more recent discourse on the topic has risen over the past week. At the center of the controversy is a photo of Lil Uzi Vert carrying a purse and wearing a spiked choker.
The image was stitched beside a photo of Nas, and posted by Waka Flocka to show his example of how today's hip-hop is appearing to stray from the rugged look of prototypical fashion from 90's hip-hop. Waka argues that an artist like Lil Uzi ought to be considered a rock star and not a rap star. He even named some of the current crop of rappers [Kendrick, Cole, Meek] who, to his determination, bear the standard.
Somewhere along the line, Waka's message was apparently lost in translation and what's followed has been a conversation on masculinity in the genre, and among black men in general. There are no reports on whether Young Thug's fiance Jerrika Karlae was present to enjoy the show from backstage, but there were a good 15,000 + male and female fans rocking along as Thug's $9,000 Spring 2017 Chanel bag swung from his shoulder.

Chief Keef has joined the long list of performers who at some point during their careers tumble from the stage during a show. Fortunately for Keef, his fall didn't lead to injury or even much embarrassment for that matter.
During a tour stop in Grand Rapids, Michigan on Thursday night (Feb. 23), the Chicago rapper got a little too turnt during a song and did a 360 degree tumble right off the top of a speaker in front of the stage. Lucky for Keef, a couple of quick-acting security guys helped him land gracefully on his feet. Upon landing, the 21-year-old spitter immediately began rapping and hyping up the crowd again.
Pop singer Aaron Carter was hospitalized on Friday night, February 17, after he was attacked on stage by a fellow musician who felt insulted by a racially charged idiom he directed towards him while telling him to get out of the venue he was performing at.
The incident happened at the Looney Bin in Bradley, Illinois, where members of the band Ill State lingered around after opening up for the 29-year-old "Aaron's Party" singer. Witnesses say that band member Tommy Solace, who is Latino, was ordered to leave after antagonizing fans, reportedly snatching cellphones to mockingly snap photos of Carter. "Bye Felipe," Carter stated, as he watched Solace being escorted out, from the stage. Moments later Solace managed to re-enter the venue, and find his way on to the stage where Carter says he punched him twice, leaving him bloodied.
"Felipe is a Mexican name and the manner in which he said it was indeed racist if you see the video. I myself come from the south side of Chicago and am no stranger to being racially profiled and discriminated so his remarks got me really angry, especially during these times when racism is so prevalent and people think they can say what they want with no repercussions," fellow band member Haze Carbajal told a local news syndicate, in defense of Solace's actions.
Carter would be treated and then released from a local hospital, but was on social media to clear the air, on Saturday. "This dude sized me up after I said he had to go and said bye Felipe like bye Felicia the male version.. Friday? He needed to go," he tweeted. The singer's rep has since released a statement refuting that he meant anything offensive by the comment, writing: "No racial slur was used by Aaron. His response to his attacker was a pop culture slang phrase equivalent to the phrase 'bye Felica,' also found in the urban dictionary."

Since the release of "Drill Time," Slim Jesus has become no stranger to altercation, as several rappers have called him out on his front on a number of occasions.

Meek Mill doesn't seem ready to drop his beef with Drake, as the Philly rapper dropped yet another diss freestyle during The Pinkprint tour stop in Camden, NJ. The "Lord Knows" emcee dropped a diss freestyle just two days prior during a tour stop in Charlotte, where he alleged that Lil Wayne and Birdman didn't care for Drake.
The Philly rapper can be heard making another reference to Drake's alleged ghostwriter Quentin Miller in his latest freestyle with the line, "If Quentin Miller wrote that s**t, what the hell were we buying?"
