Last week, several reports confirmed that Boot Camp Clik co-founder Buckshot Shorty was the victim of a vicious attack in his home borough of Brooklyn, resulting in the “Who Got The Props” rapper being hospitalized with serious injuries.

Today, the Boot Camp Clik put out a collective statement via social media with an update on Buck’s condition as well as a notice to have all videos of the unprovoked assault to be taken down.

There are still no suspects nor a motive for this attack. The assault occurred in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn, where Buckshot, whose real name is Kenyatta Blake, is known to reside.

Buckshot Shorty’s acclaim comes with over three decades of history in Hip Hop since the launch of Black Moon’s 1993 debut album Enta Da Stage. This album spawned the career of several legendary notables in the culture including Smif N’ Wessun and Heltah Skeltah, one of whose members is the late Sean Price.

On this date in 1993, Buckshot Shorty, the 5 Foot MC amd DJ Evil Dee released their first full-length album, Enta Da Stage, in 1993 on Nervous Records. This is undoubtedly one of the most pivotal albums to the sub-genre now coined as “backpack rap”.

With total in-house production from Evil Dee and The Beatminerz’ Mr. Walt, Enta Da Stage tells the narrative of the gritty streets of Crown Heights, Brooklyn from the perspective of young, Black teenagers submerged in that environment. With a very cinematic feel, the album captures the essence of the unforgiving streets while maintaining its conceptual focus of using the music to magnify the environment. The album also introduced fans to the poetic, weed-puffing duo Smif N Wessun and Heltah Skeltah, the origin of the late, great Sean Price.

Recorded entirely in the world-renowned and now-defunct D&D Studios, tracks that propelled the project include songs like “I Got Cha Opin”, “How Many MCs”, which was powered by a KRS-One sample, and the lead single, “Who Got The Props?”, the track that would forever etch Black Moon in Hip Hop history.

Salute to Buck, Evil Dee, 5Ft., Mr. Walt, Dru Ha, and the rest of the Duck Down/Boot Camp Clik family for this timeless classic!
