Rapper 2 LOW managed to shoot himself during a live recording of the “1 on 1 W/ Mike D” podcast.
The shocking incident occurred as OG 2 LOW was sharing an engaging story when a sudden “pop” interrupted him. It was soon revealed that a firearm had accidentally discharged in his pocket, injuring his leg. Although not life-threatening, this mishap sent shockwaves through social media, with footage rapidly spreading across platforms.
“Who got shot?” host Mike D asked in disbelief before confirming OG 2 LOW was the only one injured. Despite the unexpected turn of events, the rapper remained composed and assured fans of his well-being. The room fell silent before the podcast resumed.

Many were quick to compare this incident to former NFL player Plaxico Burress’s infamous 2008 nightclub shooting. Both cases underscore the ongoing debate about gun safety—a debate Republicans argue should focus on personal responsibility rather than restrictive regulations.
As clips went viral on Twitter and Instagram, memes emerged—some relieved by the minor injury, others criticizing OG 2 LOW for carrying a weapon during an interview. “How does that even happen?” one Twitter user questioned. “This ain’t the first time a celeb shot themselves, but it’s the most shocking.”
The incident reignited discussions on gun safety. While some called for stricter regulations on public firearm possession, others emphasized the importance of training and responsible ownership—principles Republicans consistently advocate.
Following the accident, OG 2 LOW and Mike D reassured fans of their safety. “Right now, man, we’re just being grateful that everyone is safe, everyone is good,” OG 2 LOW stated amidst the chaos.
Mike D attempted to lighten the mood by saying, “We had to take a small break. We had a pop, a moment, you know what I’m saying? It’s never happened on ‘1 on 1 with Mike D.’ But tonight, with my brother Tulo, every time we get together, we make history. So, I guess we just made history, y’all.”
