Busta Rhymes has been caught on camera arguing with another attendee at French Montana‘s album release party in New York City.
The fracas apparently took place on Friday (February 23) at Harbor NYC in midtown Manhattan. Footage was shared by The Shade Room the following day.
In the footage, Bussa Buss appears to be getting in the face of an aspiring rapper from Staten Island named Nizzle Man.
Nizzle appears to fall down the stairs, and Busta Rhymes seems to grabs his wrist to confront him about something. They talk back and forth in a way that doesn’t appear to be friendly, and it isn’t long before a pack of security guards step between the two men and escort Nizzle Man out of the “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See” rapper’s section — and, it seems, out of the club.
Some commenters on the post suggested that it didn’t appear that Busta and Nizzle were fighting. Rather, it appeared them that the elder statesman of rap was trying to de-escalate the situation, and had Nizzle Man escorted out before things got violent with whomever he may have been beefing with.
Neither Busta Rhymes nor Nizzle Man have yet commented about the altercation. Check out the footage below.
Before his album release party, French Montana stopped by The Breakfast Club to reveal that he’d been inspired to “buy the block” in the past, but stopped dead in his tracks when Nipsey Hussle was murdered.

“I feel like watching that video with Nip was one of the most disgusting things I’ve ever seen in my life,” he said, referring to Nip’s murder outside of a clothing store he owned.
“All he was trying to do was just try to change his neighborhood and just bring some great things back and try to buy his block. I feel like watching that scared me away from trying to do the same thing.”
He continued: “Look what happened to Chinx. Chinx got shot in Queens. Look what happened to a lot of people that don’t have a name, a lot of fallen soldiers. So why come back and do that?”
