November 20, 200421 yr Rapper Young Buck Surrenders to Police Sat Nov 20, 9:51 AM ET Entertainment - AP SANTA MONICA, Calif. - A rapper surrendered Friday to face charges that he stabbed a man who had punched hip-hop superstar Dr. Dre during the taping of a music awards show. Young Buck, whose real name is David Darnell Brown, turned himself in at police headquarters and was arrested for investigation of one count of attempted murder and one count of assault with a deadly weapon. Brown, wearing a knit cap and heavy chain necklace, was released on $500,000 bail after being ordered to appear at a Dec. 20 arraignment, Lt. Frank Fabrega said. Brown was identified on a videotape of the melee that erupted during the taping of the Vibe Awards on Monday in a hangar at the Santa Monica Airport. The tape appears to show Brown wielding a knife, but his attorney warned against jumping to conclusions. "Remember one thing, pictures may be deceiving," said the attorney, Scott Leemon. Leemon declined to discuss details of the case, but noted the rapper would perform this weekend in Virginia, North Carolina and Alabama. The brawl began when a man approached Dr. Dre and punched him as he was about to receive a lifetime achievement award. Police allege that Brown, 23, then stabbed that assailant. That man was later identified as Jimmy James Johnson, 26, a parolee from Los Angeles. Johnson suffered a collapsed lung and was in stable condition Friday. Police have been unable to interview him due to his medical condition. Investigators were also trying to identify two other men seen holding knives during the fight. Young Buck is signed to Dr. Dre's record label, and his debut solo album, "Straight Outta Ca$hville," debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard charts in August. Many in the constantly feuding rap community speculated that longtime Dre nemesis Suge Knight, who attended the awards, arranged for Dre to get punched. Knight has denied any involvement.
November 21, 200421 yr What an idiot..... :plain 618512[/snapback] Why? He was defending Dr.Dre. Not like his going to spend life in jail. 1. He didnt kill the guy. 2. Between the money he has, 50 cent, Lloyd Banks and Dr.Dre they will pay and the court will find him not guilty.

Should kill Suge Knight for killing Tupac.

But is not like Buck is ganna spend the rest of his days in jail. He even bailed out of jail couple mintues later after being arrested.
November 21, 200421 yr Ummm...stabbing is against the law. The guy needs to serve his time. All this on-the-side stuff with rap music is so unintelligent.

He wasn't defending his own self, so therefore he should go to jail for a long time. - Using circumstantial evidence concerning one person's alleged connections to someone else's, who allegedly ordered the murder of someone almost a decade ago (though never being accused, interestingly enough), is not reason to stab someone. - Someone punching a friend of yours is not a reason to stab someone. - Just because you rap doesn't make being in a gang and having propped up, multi-million dollar gang fights ok. I like alot of the music that some of these people put out, but their glorified violent pissing contests have no purpose on the front page news. Frankly, I could care less who killed Tupac, does it concern me? Is it going to let me sleep better at night if they put someone in jail for it? No. Why does Dre need Young Buck to pull a knife on someone, isn't he rich enough to have bodyguards to take care of these people? Some people just need an education.
