Busta Rhymes in racist, homophobic assault case
Quote:
Ole Hernandez says he had no idea who Busta Rhymes was before the rapper allegedly called him a ****** then threw a protein shake in his face. Now, he’s speaking out about the incident for the very first time.
33-year-old Hernandez works at the front counter of Steel Gym in New York’s Chelsea neighborhood. He found himself on the receiving end of a string of homophobic and racist epithets made by 43-year-old Rhymes after he told the hip hop artist he couldn’t bring a cameraman into the gym.
Speaking to The New York Post this week, Hernandez says Rhymes flew into a rage, allegedly yelling: “You don’t know who I am! I’m Busta Rhymes! I’m the real n–ga! You’re a f–king f–got, you are a p–sy! You are a Mexican crossing the border to come to this country! I will f–k you up!”
Surveillance video doesn’t capture the audio from the altercation, but it does show Rhymes visibly upset and reaching across the counter towards Hernandez before his security guard intervenes to pull him away.
The next day, Rhymes returned to Steel Gym to rehash the previous day’s beef with Hernandez.
Surveillance video obtained by The Post shows the two men exchanging words again before Rhymes throws the contents of his water bottle at Hernandez. Hernandez responds by throwing water back at Rhymes, who then proceeds to knock over a computer and swing punches before grabbing a chocolate protein shake and tossing it at Hernandez, hitting him with it in the face.
According to Hernandez, Rhymes’ security guards then raced behind the counter and slammed him into a door. That altercation, however, happened off camera.
Afterwards, Rhymes was arrested for felony assault and was ordered to attend anger-management classes. Hernandez tells The Post that he is “furious” the rapper managed to escape any jail time or fines.

Then, once he saw that his condiments were on the side — as is Cheeseburger Baby policy to prevent soggy buns — Rhymes reportedly saw red.
‘F*** you, ***!” the rapper yelled at an employee. “I’m not leaving until I get ketchup, mayo, salt and pepper on my burger.” He then attempted to come over the counter, and told Vitori, “F*** you, bitch.”

BUSTA Rhymes went ballistic on a young gay fan who dared to tap the rapper on the shoulder after a night of clubbing in Miami.
The incident took place at the 11th Street Diner, which is next door to the popular gay night club Twist early on last Sunday morning.
“The restaurant was packed with transvestites, gay men and drag queens, which obviously made Busta a little edgy,” eyewitness Thomas Barker told the Post. “This became evident when a young gay guy came up behind Busta and tapped him on the shoulder to congratulate the rapper on his recent comeback. Before the guy could even mutter a word, Busta turned around and repeatedly screamed, ‘Why the f**k you touchin’ me, man? Get the f**k away from me.”
Other sources claim that the rapper then whispered to his bodyguard: ” I hate f*****g ******s, man."
