Rapper Remy Ma has been arrested and charged with attempted murder after allegedly shooting her friend in the stomach outside trendy New York hotspot Pizza Bar Saturday. Remy, who's real name is Remy Smith, was leaving a birthday party when she became angered over some money that had gone missing from her purse. The rapper approached her friend, Makeda Barnes-Joseph, apparently believing the woman was responsible for taking the money. Remy then pulled a gun on Barnes-Joseph, who was sitting in her car, and fired two bullets into her abdomen. The rapper tried to flee in her Escalade but crashed it a flew blocks from the scene and jumped in a cab instead. Barnes-Joseph meanwhile was taken to St. Vincent's hospital where she had to have emergency surgery, the bullet having just missed her uterus and kidneys. She identified the shooter as Remy Ma, and a warrant was issued for the rapper's arrest. Remy, looking "tired and disheveled," arrived at the Sixth Precinct at 8pm with her lawyer to surrender to police, and was charged with attempted murder, assault and criminal weapons possession. Her lawyer, Scott Leemon, said the following:
Do not jump to conclusions. These are merely allegations and Remy denies them adamantly.
The victim remains in stable condition. Which sucks for Remy Ma cause if she'd died - man, think of the street cred...

One more thug in America. Sadly, many young blacks look up to her...
There is 'bling', and then there is "BLING!!". Her rings? brass knuckles? -look like a car grill. I don't think I am the only one who looks forward to the day, when all of these 'rap' thugs (men and women both) become as out of fashion as Lionel Richie was in the 90s.
She shoots a women point blank in the stomach twice? Hmmmmm, I wonder if she will serve any time for this? Funny, why do I think that she will get away with this?, and it will all be summed up as a "misunderstanding" or some pathetic shit like that? Maybe it will just be reduced to 'owning an unregistered gun' or something. Perhaps 'unlawful discharge of firearms within the city limits"? The woman just happened to be 'in the way?' It is funny that serious crimes like THIS-committed by thug 'celebritiy' types never seem to get the same level of media attention?
"Do not jump to conclusions"??? wtf? she either shot her, or not. I bet Remy is going to call up O.J and get a few of his "Dream Team" attorneys for this one.
Yeah, it's kind of hard NOT to jump to conclusions when you shoot an unarmed person twice sitting in a car and try to kill them. I can't wait to hear Remy try to explain this one away.
I seriously don't get the blonde "Betty Boop" wig, with the blue contact lens.......?????
Aren't rappers suppose to be all about representing black culture, and the inner city teens that live there?
I guess fair is fair. There are enough white rappers out there dressing, and pretending to be black, so I guess she is a black rapper trying to look white. Oh, and the shooting thing is insane!
