A video shared on TikTok shows the rapper picking up a phone from the side of the stage as he begins his 2016 track ‘Money Longer’.He then launches the phone into the air, which lands somewhere far out into the festival crowd.
TikToker Drilla G responded to the original post with a video showing her with a bloodied head being taken out of the crowd by festival staff.She later added another video, in which she said: “I am sadly that chick that got her head smashed in by the phone,” adding that someone else was also hit, although she didn’t want to identify them.“Yes, there was some damage caused,” she continued, “but the guy got his phone back and everything is being dealt with.
