Atlanta Rapper J. Money a.k.a. J. Futuristic was shot six times in his arm, back and calf last week while preparing to shoot a music video for his upcoming single “Hold Up”. MTV News reported that he will remain hospitalized until doctors feel he has recovered enough to be released, although he is in stable condition and doing much better. J. Money released this statement recollecting the shooting to MTV’s RapFix:
“They just started coming from everywhere. Like a hundred shots. It just came from everywhere, man. It was crazy. It was a nightmare. I’m here for music, so that’s what I’m going to do till I die. And God ain’t ready for me to die. I just want to touch people through my music and put out a positive message.”
