“You think you strong bro?” Nas EBK is in hot trouble after a viral video surfaced showing him threatening to “stab” someone.
The hopeful New York rapper’s video went viral after he dressed up as a ShopRite employee and engaged in a vocal fight. Later, he clarified that it was all part of the hoax film. However, according to authorities in Rochelle Park, the Vlogger threatened someone with a dagger. The problem started when the artist attempted to trick a couple by saying their luggage was his. As the guy became defensive and attempted to challenge Nas EBK, he started to say:
“We’re kidding, buddy, it’s a jest… Stop toying with me or I’ll knock you up.”
He then took out a dagger, which heightened the tension. He stated:
“What? I’m going to attack you right now. How are you doing? How are you doing? What? “Do you believe you’re strong, bro?”
The individual filming the footage attempted to diffuse the situation and soothe Nasir Valenzuela, but in futile, as the artist can be heard saying:
“I’m going to attack your forehead right now, what, look, what are you attempting to do? Quit fooling around with me. “I’m going to slash your forehead open.”
The film, which was published last month, has received over 450,000 hits. Nasir Valenzuela has now been accused of illegal possession of a firearm, simple assault, terroristic threats, and unruly behavior. He is presently being held at the Bergen County Prison. Nas EBK is a well-known figure on Instagram, where he presently has over 127,000 fans. The profile is managed by Nas’ staff, according to his Instagram description. Shortly after his capture, a photo of him was posted to the site with the caption:
“Too much chit-chat Ebk, I’ll be back shortly RELEASE DA RI$KTAKER”
While it is uncertain how the officials will continue in the case at the time, many social media users are now mobilizing for Nas’ release, saying that he is harmless and that the behavior was part of the show. There have been no further developments in the matter.
