DETROIT (AP) -- Rapper Obie Trice was shot early Saturday while driving on a freeway, police said.

Trice, a Detroit native and protege of Eminem, was on the Lodge Freeway at about 1:10 a.m. when his vehicle was shot at by someone in another car, said Michigan State Police Sgt. Mario Gonzales.

Trice managed to continue driving and exited the freeway in the suburb of Southfield, where his girlfriend, who also was in the vehicle, flagged down police, Gonzales said. The girlfriend wasn't wounded.

The rapper was taken to a hospital and was listed in good condition, Gonzales said.

wow shot in the head and still alive... hope he gets better

woah! Hey did anyone ever here about that rapper named Houston but he thought he saw God and he poked out one of his eyes!

wow, lucky guy

Sure he's lucky if he likes eye patches lol

thats weird. i would never think he`d get shot. oh well. =] glad to hear hes ok tho.

i meant lucky to be alive u fool lol

I didn't know that's what u meant! lol

1) He's a singer
2) You're late
3) Stay on topic

wheres it say he got shot in the head?

Not in the article itself, but that was the article's headline.

I'm getting tired of all this senseless violence.

Scott La Roc
Tupac
Biggie
Freaky Tah
Big L
Mac Dre
Soulja Slim

Maybe he might get shot 10 times in the head & survive.. hah beat that 50 cent.

3 times= truth, 8 times= album intro, 9 times= publicity stunt

i hate 50 cent...

Wow ur mean He mentioned rappers getting shot or injured so I brought that up.

obie is like a wannabe 50 cent. exclude the fame & everything. one of his song with the blind date & teethless one was so - i'll stfu I dont wanna get shot.

Sensitivity isn't for online forums.



Uhhh, not really. Get ya facts right.

Obie was holding it down in Detroit via freestyle battles way before 50 even released Power of the Dollar. Obie also came first, but battle emcees often find it hard to make a lasting impact in the mainstream. 50 had a gimmick and aimed to be on top (by any means necessary).

I'm made of glass? Ur right sensitivity is not 4 online forums and neither is being a jerk


end of disscusion The new year has just started

Dang rappers getting shot for no reason, but it probably just boost their street credibility . Just look at Camron.

shhit happens for no fcukin reason this sh!t goes on too much mothafcukers are stupid.

just stop it -__-

but ddddddddang thats sucks
lucky to be alive

exactly

thank you brandon. and he wasn't being a jerk. ur too sensitive to small comments and reality. "end of disscusion The new year has just started " nerd.



hmm. didn't think obie would've gotten shot. and where was the entrance for the bullet wound? side profile shot or like, straight in the eye? amazing that he lived. hope he gets better soon.

I'm looking for some sort of follow up, but everything else is word of mouth. I'll scroll the forum of D12 world to get some info.

you know there are one too many rappers living through bullets through the head... dammit if i shot someone in the head id do it right...

dude i doubt anyone would get shot in the head for a publicity stunt...
the mortality rate is too high...
lets be logical here..would you do it for the camera?

now camron...thats different...that dude is a drama queen...his whole shooting is suspect...


if a person shoots you for the car...why didnt they take it...dude was injured..he coulda made off with the lambo easily...

The reason why "lean"/purple drank/sizzurp made it to Harlem is ebcause Cam and the Diplomats own and run liquor stores from Harlem to DC and they profit by pushing Dame's vodka and distributing the Houston based drink for an incredible profit. Not to forget that these brothas were still hustling when he was shot.

How smart would it to be to a custom Lamborghini at a nightclub? There had to be something more to it.

like i said..the whole shooting is suspect.
LOL that info you just posted makes it look even more suspect....
mabye dude rubbed some of the other bar owners the wrong way...

Not to stick my nose into others ppl's business, BUT GODDAMN!!! You guys are arguing over a rapper getting shot, and FACTS about a rapper. WHO THE HELL GIVES A CRAP.....well, except for those who are really interested in rap. but honestly, grow up. And sensitivity isn't for online forums? I bet if someone shut ur ass up you'd be bitching all over this forum. So uh, slow your roll.

Damn another one shot? Take these guns from rappers and never give em back. Can't rap just stick to straight music instead of starting beef in their music and try to be all "gangsta"? Handle it like adults.

Thank you for such an insightful and intelligent post. Would you like us to hoist you onto a pedestal and kiss your feet in celebration of your divine intellect?

Eat a d**k.

well hopefully now he'll come out with a new record
be like 50 and talk about how u got shot

Obie Trice is a lyricist. 50 Cent is a rapper (now businessman) with a gimmick. There's a difference. Being a thug should never be glorified. Trice isn't that type of artist, so I doubt he'll make a scene about it.

Tragic I must say...

oh damn......
hes gonna turn into another kanye west now

but obies flows are nicer than kanye

^ ahhhhh its been a while since ive seen you on cB... welcome back

You know how pathetic you are? You're trying to start an argument over a blog, that's about some rapper, with a 15 year old. If you're younger than me, then just f**k off, but if you're older than me, get a f**king life man, really. This crap is too stupid to start a fight over. And even if i wanted to eat a d**k, there hasn't been one in the entire world you haven't eaten or sucked. So, get off of mine.
You know what, aruging online is stupid.....Its pointless.....



I know its a really mean way of putting it, but its true.

^^ and yet u still argue...

Who's arguing? I'm not. I just replied sarcastically. Don't catch feelings on the net, man. Thats on some bitch shit.
