The 2nd Annual VIBE music awards were marred by violence according to sources in Los Angeles, a fracas that resulted in the premature stoppage of the event.
While the details are vague, Dr. Dre was slated to receive the Vibe Legend Award for his achievements and contributions to Hip-Hop over the course of his life.
At some point, in the evening, Suge Knight allegedly got on stage and said, “F**k the G-Unit.” He supposedly hurled insults at others in the crowd in addition to 50 Cent’s crew.
Sources at the event said, “All hell broke loose tonight and a melee ensued involving Quincy Jones, Snoop, Dr. Dre, Suge Knight and G Unit. Someone sucker punched Dr. Dre while Snoop and Quincy were about to present him with a special award. All hell broke loose. Celebrities were running for cover.”
While unsupported by facts, some early reports stated that Knight was stabbed in the brawl and others said that a member of G-Unit was stabbed. Other reports state that nobody was cut.
Sources were unable to verify the validity of this account and representatives from the respective camps were not available for comment.
The show was halted immediately and more details will be unveiled as they are available.
