Russell Simmons has been a pivotal figure in hip-hop since it's inception, and he's been involved in some crazy situations.

Back in 2017, Simmons was accused by multiple woman for sexual assaault, and more recently, the Beastie Boys put him on blast for shady business tactics. 

Another crazy situation that doesnt involve Simmons himself, is a story about 50 Cent running down on Suge Knight and his crew.

According to Simmons, Suge tried to extort a 50 Cent music video shoot with a group full of his goons, but it didn't go too well. 

During the whole ordeal, Fifty was giggling, in which Simmons asked if he was  "enlightened," because he never seemed scared, even when Suge had a gun in his hand. 

Fifty allegedly ran towards his trailer, and came back with an uzi, which scared Suge and the other men off.
