Busta Rhymes suffered a head injury last Friday (21.11.14) after falling off stage.
The 42-year-old rapper was making a surprise appearance at New York’s Webster Hall where fellow rapper O.T. Genasis was performing, when he accidentally nose-dived into the crowd and was left with blood running down his face.
Following the incident, the ‘Gimme Some More’ hitmaker was taken backstage for medical treatment but did not re-emerge after the incident, gossip website TMZ reports.
Busta – whose real name is Trevor Tahiem Smith, Jr. – has now taken to Twitter to assure fans he is well, claiming he has suffered much worse injuries during his extensive career.
He wrote: "I SALUTE ALL CALLS FRM FAMILY AND FRIENDS MAKIN’ SURE I’M GOOD. JUST 4 THE RECORD I’M SUPER GOOD!! WHEN U LOVE WHAT U DO AND UR PASSIONATE..
"AND UR PASSIONATE ABOUT WINNING U GO HARD!!! WE DONE FELL OFF STAGES AND BROKE LIMBS WHILE PERFORMING AND KEPT GONG!!! WE STAY ON LEVEL 10.. (sic)."
In further messages, the star – who has children T’Ziah, T’Khi, Trillian and Mariah – said the unfortunate fall wouldn’t stop him from continuing to make music.
"WE ALWAYS WILL BE ON 10!! WE JUST TOOK 1 STEP 2 FAR OFF THE STAGE AND THAT WAS IT!! S**T HAPPENS BUT I LOVE IT CAUSE WE LIVE IT!!
"WE WILL NEVER STOP DOING WHAT WE’VE ALWAYS DONE AND THAT’S DOING WHAT WE LOVE!!! SMASHIN’ & KILLIN’ S**T!!! BLESS UP #THECONGLOMERATE!! (sic)"
