Last nights Vibe Awards in California seem to have been total chaos. From Suge Knight yellin’ out “Fuck The G-Unit” on stage, to Dr. Dre getting attacked by somebody in the crowd right when he was getting his lifetime achievement award presented to by Snoop Dogg & Quincy Jones, to somebody getting stabbed.
It is still not too clear what exactly went on, and it looks like the media is trying to cover up some shit, as MTV.com changed their article on this after an hour, taking out Suge’s name. However, I have a link for you below to check out, it is a video of what happened from the news, check it out below:

Snoop Dogg & Quincy Jones Presenting Award
Here is a news article on this:
“SANTA MONICA, Calif. – One person was stabbed at the second annual Vibe awards Monday as rapper Snoop Dogg and producer Quincy Jones were preparing to honor Dr. Dre with a lifetime achievement award, authorities and witnesses said.
Dozens of people sitting near the stage Monday inside a hangar at the Santa Monica Municipal Airport began shoving each other as the show wound down about 7:30 p.m., a photographer who covered the event for The Associated Press said.
News video showed chairs being thrown, punches flying, people chasing one another and some being restrained.
“To my understanding … the show was going on when the stabbing occurred,” said police Lt. Frank Fabrega in a press conference following the fight.
It was unclear if the stabbing preceded or followed the fight. The victim, a 26-year-old man, was taken to a hospital and was listed in stable condition.
Police were looking for the assailant and no arrests have been made.
Witness Frank Williams told KCAL-TV that Dr. Dre was involved in the brawl.
“I saw Dr. Dre fighting somebody,” Williams said. “I don’t know if he was fighting back. But there was a guy taken out basically bloodied.”
Andrea Ferguson, employed by a public relations firm that worked with Vibe for the awards ceremony, called the incident a “disruption” but declined to provide details. She added the show was allowed to continue but it was halted for about five minutes.
Dr. Dre, who was scheduled to receive a Vibe Legend Award for his lifetime contributions to hip-hop, had not come on stage yet when the fight erupted. Jones and Snoop Dogg stood on stage without saying anything.
“My understanding is that it was somewhat chaotic in there,” Fabrega said.
About 1,000 people attended the event, some of whom scurried for the exits when the fight broke out.
“It’s really important that we don’t take a negative incident like this and do away with the awards,” Suge Knight told reporters.”
