Busta Rhymes Confronts TikToker Who Calls Him ‘Tracy Morgan’ at Art Basel

TMZ’s video of the tense exchange reignited discussion about prank culture around celebrity boundaries.

Overview

  • During a posed photo in Miami, a young content creator said “Tracy Morgan,” prompting Busta Rhymes to stop the interaction and address him.
  • On camera, Rhymes ordered the filming to end and warned the teen, saying, “You don’t play with a grown man, little boy — that’s how people get f***ed up.”
  • Reports note no physical altercation occurred as the teen walked away, the camera was shut off, and Rhymes left the scene.
  • The clip, first shared by TMZ, was quickly amplified by outlets including Complex, HotNewHipHop, AllHipHop, and WBLS.
  • Social media reaction largely favored Rhymes, with the episode framed against a recurring Tracy Morgan comparison that dates back to a 2020 50 Cent post.
