Gunfire at Nas Concert
Nas performace at Brixton Academy in London was brought to a halt when a gunman opened fire. A Metropolitan Police spokesperson believed two shots were fired 25-minutes after the show began. No one was injured. Nas' publicist thought it was ironic "because only today he released his latest single, Just a Moment, which is about the fact he is dead against violence in rap. This is not something he stands for, and he doesn't understand why there should be a connection." Nas left the stage within minutes of the incident and the show was cancelled. No word on the identity of the gunman. Read more over at the Guardian.
