Rapparen och låtskrivaren CyHi The Prynce, under många år signd till Kanye Wests G.O.O.D. Music via Def Jam, har undkommit ett mordförsök i hemstaden Atlanta. 2017 släppte han debutalbumet “No Dope On Sundays” som gästades av Pusha-T, ScHoolboy Q, Kanye West, 2 Chainz med flera. Under natten mot måndag publicerade CyHi bilder på en kraschad bil som ska ha beskjutits efter en biljakt på motorvägen, där attentatsmän ihärdigt ska ha försökt att döda rapparen. Han skriver själv:

“A couple nights ago there was an attempt on my life… somebody tried to gun me down on the highway. tried everything I could do to lose them, but they were adament about taking me off this earth. They where shooting at me while I was driving and even after my car flipped, hit a pole and crashed into a tree, they came back and shot the car up some more.”

Enligt CyHi känner han inte till bakgrunden eller motivet till händelsen, och skriver vidare:

“At this point I don’t know if it was a mistaken identity, a robbery, or associated with something that I did when I was younger but I haven’t been in the streets in over a decade. I just want to know why and if there is anything I can do to fix the issue. I was born and raised in Atlanta, GA, and I have tremendous love for my city … but it’s chaotic out here. I’m trying my best to keep a level head, but when you dont know who is after you its hard to wrap your mind around it and not be paranoid.”

Istället för att söka hämnd söker han nu att sluta fred med krafterna som vill få bort honom från hemstaden Atlanta:

“I just want to let the people know who were trying to kill me that i am not a bad person. I don’t want revenge, I just want understanding and closure.”
