Rapper Busta Rhymes gets busted-up after tumbling head-first into crowd

US rapper Busta Rhymes has been left with a bloodied head after falling off the stage during a concert in New York on Friday.

Rhymes had made a surprise appearance in the early hours of the morning at Webster Hall during another rapper's concert when the accident occurred.

Video taken by the crowd shows an overly enthusiastic Rhymes – who is holding a cigar in one hand and a bottle of alcohol in the other - jumping up-and-down on the stage.

Rhymes and the other rappers on stage then start head-banging – a move which sees the rapper topple forward, head-first, into the crowd.

Pictures soon emerged showing Rhymes with blood trickling down his face.

The rapper was taken back-stage where he was cleaned-up but soon re-joined the rest of the team on stage.

Later in the day Rhymes took to Twitter to assure fans he was ok.
