2 Chainz may have denied being robbed at gunpoint, but when the video footage went live yesterday his bodguard, Harold “Hammer Strength” Folsom changed his tune. He spoke with radio station Power 107.5 in Columbus, Ohio, “I saw the gun first. It was like a .357. It was so heavy he couldn’t really hold it. The gun was so big. That’s what made me take off running. When I went into the street, there was another dude with a whole ‘nother gun. That’s when I knew it wasn’t like an episode of ‘Punk’d.’ I was like this is real. … I had bullet fragments in my hair. … I think he thought he shot me. It was a misfortunate accident. I didn’t fill out a report. I don’t think they were trying to rob me. They really was just busting on me on some real stuff. At the end of the day, it’s just a part of me growing as an artist, me becoming more pop, me becoming a superstar. I’m just excited about life. I’m so turnt up, you can’t turn me down. I’m just geeked about life. Then when I saw the footage, I’m like it was real. ‘They was on my ass!’ This was a sign. That’s all it was. I come from this.”
In the video obtained by TMZ, 2 Chainz and his crew scatter after two men attempt to rob them. They allegedly made off with 2 Chainz wallet and phone but not his jewelry.
