Busta Rhymes appeared ready to put the paws on a rapper at French Montana’s recent album release party. Video obtained by The Shade Room’s Maya M. shows Busta yanking up a man as security dragged him away.
The man is believed to be rapper Nizzle Man. It’s unclear what started the lil’ tussle. However, the video shows security removing a hyped Nizzle, even dragging him at one point. As Nizzle struggled to remain in the private section of what seemed like a nightclub atmosphere, Busta approached him and grabbed his arm.
Busta Rhymes is seen saying something close to Nizzle’s ear, though the loud music prevents viewers from knowing what’s being said. As security kept pushing Nizzle toward the exit, Busta continued walking alongside them, speaking to Nizzle.

As mentioned, Busta Rhymes’ lil’ altercation came amid French celebrating his latest album release ‘Mac & Cheese 5’ on Friday (Feb. 23).
According to Genuis, the project marks French’s 24th mixtape release and is a follow-up to the fourth installment released in 2016. It features 21 songs in five different versions, totaling 126 tracks, per TMZ. Some of the versions include the standard, acapella, instrumentals, and sped-up or slowed-down installments, particularly for TikTok.
French told TMZ he took a page out of Taylor Swift’s book with the 126-track drop featuring different versions. He also shouted out City Girls’ JT for doing the same with her latest single, “Sideways.” In his eyes, the multi-versions are the new wave!
Busta Rhymes and Nizzle Man have yet to address the altercation seen in the clip. At this time, there’s nothing publicly suggesting the two are beefing or previously had beef.
French Montana has also been hush-hush on the altercation at his New York City celebration.
