TMZ Hip Hop has obtained exclusive footage of Swae and his entourage attempting to enter the festival grounds at a security checkpoint behind the stage. However, they were met with resistance from several overzealous security guards, which escalated into a full-blown brawl.
In the video, you can see Swae being knocked back against some fencing as security guards swarm in, attacking one of Swae’s crew members. Despite the chaos, one of Swae’s guards manages to ensure the safety of his baby, who was in a big car seat.
According to Swae’s management team, the altercation occurred because security guards failed to recognize the talent and aggressively initiated contact as they attempted to make their way to the stage. The guards can be seen throwing gang signs in celebration at the end of the video.
Despite the incident, Swae’s security team did an excellent job protecting him and his baby. Swae and his brother Slim Jxmmi were able to take the stage as scheduled and rock the crowd. Fans can look forward to seeing Rae Sremmurd live this year but without the WWE-style entrances.
