In the above video, r & b singer August Alsina almost lost his mind over a hat that was snatched off his head during a recent club performance Arkansas. The singer shifted from singing a love ballot to his fans to going into a tirade over the incident. Immediately after he lost his hat, he demanded the DJ turn off the music and told the crowd that no one would be leaving unless his hat was returned back to him.
“Who got the hat?! On some G shit! Don’t play with me like that, my nigga,” he said. “I came out here to fuck with y’all so if you got it, ain’t NOBODY leaving out this bitch until I get it back, Straight up! Where it’s at? Or we gon’ cause a muthafuckin’ riot in this bitch. Where it’s at?”
Just weeks ago, the singer posted a picture of him being hung from a rope which caused many to wonder was the singer trying to convey a message to his fans? If his last incident is any sign of what is to be expected of the singer, then chances are his proverbial hanging photo may be a sign that he might be trying to kill his career.
Another observation in the video is that while he is singing to the women, he is sitting straddled on the shoulders of a man. Interesting to say the least. The rest of the show was canceled after his hat was not returned.
Do you think he overreacted to the incident or do you feel the is all a part of being a performer? Leave your comment below.
