If youhaven’t heard yet, last night at Irving Plaza, a unexpected shooting took place. Irving Plaza security failed to check all persons entering the venue which resulted in the shooting of four people. Of the four people the New York Post has reported that Ronald McPhatter aka B$B Banga was fatally shot and killed. McPhatter was 33 with his own Fitness business, “BIGBIZZFITNESS”.
New York Police Department Commissioner Bill Bratton is trying to blame the shooting on Hip Hop, but this had nothing to do with Hip Hop. This same commissioner is trying to vilify all the acts who were trying to put on an energetic concert for the paying customers.
Condolences from DefPen to the family and friends of McPhatter.
