(AllHipHop News) Afrika Bambaataa, Hip-Hop Legend and music pioneer, was reportedly stabbed a few weeks back.

Members of the Zulu Nation have clarified that Afrika Bambaataa has recovered and also dispel rumors related to this event.

Ahmad Henderson, Africa Bambaataa’s manager, who was at the hospital, refuted the notion that he was stabbed.

“Ridiculous. There are too many rumors. Bam checked into the hospital for chest paint. And he came out fine. Three days later he was Radio City Music Hall. If he was stabbed how, was he on stage performing?”

“Afrika Bambaataa was not stabbed so we do not know where this is coming from,” added Mickey Bentson of The Mighty Zulu Nation, who was also at the hospital when Bam was treated.
“Yes he did go to the hospital because of chest pains bothering him and everything checked out alright,” Mickey Benston continued. “So when did he get stabbed? That’s a rumor, sorry that didn’t happen to Afrika Bambaataa.”

Ernie Paniccioli, Hip-Hop Photographer, refuted the claim that the stabbing was the rumored response to a date rape.
Earlier, The Star & Buc Wild Show alleged on air that the stabbing stemmed from a rumored date rape, in which Bam had drugged a man and attempted oral sex.
In the rumor, the man woke up and stabbed the legend.

Ernie Paniccioli told AllHipHop.com this is patently false.

“It is BS,” Paniccioli said, “to hell with anyone who defames a man who has devoted his life to Peace and dignity and who has been a beacon to generations of our youth.”
Brother Ernie goes further, suggesting that this attack on Afrika Bambaataa’s character may be in response to members of the Zulu Nation recently condemning Rick Ross for his date rape lyrics on UOENO .

Brother Ernie warns, “Never underestimate the Devil.”

Afrika Bambaataa is one of the pioneers of break beat deejaying and has spent his life spreading Hip-Hop throughout the world as the founder of the Universal Zulu Nation.
Although Wikipedia lists his birthday as April 19th, sources say his actual birthday is April 17th, he turns 56 today.

Brother Ernie continues, “I have know Bam for 35 years on this Earth and can vouch for him as a man, as a human being and as a mighty leader and yes even as an Icon. I will defend him with every breathe I have in me. I can bear witness to his spirit and his warmth and his leadership.”

Afrika Bambaataa...gay?

Just what kind of "stabbing" are we talking about here? Maybe that's why there's the confusion.

[Career Over Like Mike(NJJ)]

Him fucking his record carriers back in the day was kind of known thing, right? i assumed his being gay was kinda like Mr. Cee. We all know it but no one really speaks on it.

Plus he had a boyfriend throughout the 90s.

This is what happens when rappers flirt with German techno.

I never knew this!

Shit. This is like the first time I saw a photo of Tim Westwood.

[step one]

I thought Bam being gay was common knowledge. I think I first it mentioned in the late 90s.

that people are more concerned with this than the alleged drugging though

[Req]

[Piff Tannen]

it sounds like it was known that bambutt-a was gay, whereas its only been suggested that dre and em were bi

so thats prolly why you were getting the from folks MB

either way, thun wins thread

[Kace]

What is all this crazy talk? To Pack, Dr.Gay and Afrika Bambattyboy are all gay?

[funcrusha76]

I always thought GM Flash was the "gay pioneer".

[Mindbender Futurama]

2Pac was gay too?????????

fucking hell, is no-one safe from the homosexual agenda?

don't be stupid.

It's not really a joke, even though we laugh to get through the insanity. White people have fucked up sexuality for Black people around the world since slavery and religion raped Africa.

Tupac was being very fucking offensive and invasive about it, but he was the only one talking about "Dre is gay" back in 1996, and he wasn't even being alpha male macho masculine about it. He was saying "Andre Young is gay, and I am making people aware of it, whether Dre likes it or not."

No Black entertainers in North America are allowed to be out of the closet and not persecuted.

ellen degeneres can make all the money she wants as a gay white woman.
but if Oprah Winfrey admitted her relationship with Gayle? shit would be madness

whether Afrika Bambaataa, Eminem, Sean Combs, Dr. Dre, Missy Elliott, Busta Rhymes, Queen Latifah, MC Lyte or DMX, there are lots of gay/lesbian/bi-sexual hip hop legends and icons that have not told the whole truth about their sexuality, because we live in a fucking uncivilized world full of people with judgemental tyrannical psychologically oppressive behaviour.

Even children are cool with queer people when they want to communicate to human beings. So to not respect human sexuality other than your own is to have a mentality inferior to that of an infant.

Don't be the average savage

[Piff Tannen]

i call shenanigans on using oprah as an example.

i feel like people know shes prolly yes homoing it out with gayle. and if she came out honestly and truly, her fanbase wouldnt care.

the people that might care are more likely her fans in the black community moreso than the entire community. we are all still weird about gay shit, mental health, etc.

theres no way she would come out and madness would ensue on a whole, as most of the people who fuck with ellen are prolly oprah fans as well. its the same demographic for the most part, especially in the white community.

lesser celebrities or hip hop celebrities, who knows? they might feel backed into a corner due to the persona they've created in their careers. but oprah? nah, if shes gay and not coming out, its not for sake of her career.
