BUSTA RHYMES GOON REP BRINGS PROBLEMS TO MOVIE SET…
Rapper Busta Rhymes stars in the new thriller “Breaking Point” in which he plays a a vicious Gang leader and a notorious drug dealer, however his real life troubles involving a 2006 shooting incident which left his longtime friend and bodyguard Israel Ramirez dead led to issues on the movie set. According to his co-star Tom Berenger,
“There was a whole thing with Busta Rhymes and the New York police on day one when I got there. I shot all my scenes that day in downtown Manhattan but they weren’t with him so it didn’t really affect me. There was something that had happened in a club involving him, where somebody had pulled a gun out or something like that. I really don’t recall the details but they were forbidden to shoot because of safety concerns. I never entirely understood it. The location department had to whip up a bunch of new locations that involved him. We had to shoot scenes with him over in Bayonne and Hoboken, New Jersey all in a row because he had to get to a concert in Portugal.”
Busta’s new movie which also features Stinky Fingaz from 90′s rap group Onyx is now playing in select theatres, for more information visit www.breakingpointthemovie.com.
New York ain’t never gone let Busta shoot no movie there if they can help it.
