XXXTENTACION's First Post-Jail Show Was Basically a Riot

Whether it’s his criticisms of Drake’s cultural appropriation or his calls for a rap battle with the OVO superstar, XXXTENTACION has been ensuring his name stays in headlines. The young Florida artist has only been free for a couple of weeks, but he’s already stirring up a storm on the internet. As XXL reports, XXXTENTACION’s first post-jail performance was a cause for controversy as well. After attempting to hold a “surprise” show in Miami last night, the “Look At Me” rapper was met with an overzealous response from fans and law enforcement. The end result of XXX’s Friday night appearance: a near-riot. “Police escorted him to safety because he’s a f*cking superstar, and his presence damn near incited a riot,” XXX’s manager tells XXL in an official statement.

Courtesy of some fan-shot footage, you can check out clips of what went down at XXXTENTACION’s surprise outing below.
