Introduction: Busta Rhymes Check Content Creator Who Called Him Tracy Morgan
Busta Rhymes stayed reminding folks that he is not the one to play with.
The rapper took the time to check a content creator who tried to clown him by calling him Tracy Morgan. And yes, it worked way too well. The moment went viral overnight, especially during Miami’s Art Basel weekend.
TMZ Hip Hop caught the whole thing on camera as Busta stepped into what he thought was a chill photo-op, only to realize somebody was trying to get a rise out of him. The internet wasted zero time debating whether it was harmless fun or low-key disrespect to a hip-hop legend.
As soon as the prankster dropped the Tracy Morgan line, Busta’s whole vibe shifted. Another content creator, Funny Salesman, stood off to the side looking like he wanted no parts in the chaos that was about to unfold.
Even though some folks online tried to brush it off as a joke, plenty of others dragged the prankster for crossing a line. Busta Rhymes didn’t need security or a team to defend him. He handled business himself, up close and personal, reminding everybody how fast he can go from cool to cutting.
He told the kid’s buddy to shut the camera off so he could talk grown-man-to-boy. That’s when he laid into the prankster, hitting him with heat and reality all at once. “You don’t mess with a grown man, little BOY — that’s how people get messed up!!!”
Busta didn’t touch the kid, but he definitely sent a warning shot straight to his ego. Now the prankster has exactly the viral moment he was begging for… just not the version he planned on.
This incident now sits right next to a long history of viral pranksters learning the hard way that celebrities are still humans with limits.
