Popular New York rapper Keith Murray went viral yesterday, after a video surfaced which appeared to show the rapper acting very CRACK-ISH.
In the video, a man resembling the rapper was seen walking in the middle of a street in Long Island, NY – stumbling back and forth and appearing to be under the influence of some sort of powerful narcotic.
The person filming the video called out to the man, saying “Yo Keith,” but the man did not respond to being called.
Also the man – who fans are saying is Keith Murray – also seemed oblivious to being filmed.
Media Take Out was not able to confirm the identity of the person in the video. We also were not able to determine when the video was taken.
Here’s the video:
If that was the rapper in the video, Keith Murray seems to be doing much better now. Yesterday he performed at the BET Awards and looked like he was no longer in a dr*g fueled stupor.
Keith Murray is a rapper from New York. Murray grew up on Carleton Ave, in Central Islip, which is located on the South Shore of Long Island in Suffolk County. Murray was a known member of a local rap collective in Long Island called Legion of Doom (L.O.D.) which included fellow rappers 50 Grand, Ron Jay, and Kel-Vicious. Murray is more famously known for being a member of the Hip Hop trio the Def Squad, which includes fellow rappers Redman and fellow Long Island native Erick Sermon, previously the co-founder of the legendary Hip-Hop group EPMD (from neighboring town Brentwood).
Murray debuted his spaced out, complex, multi-syllable rhyming style on Erick Sermon’s ruggedly produced song ‘Hostile’ off his first solo album ‘No Pressure’ which was released in 1993, and was Sermon’s first project since splitting with former rhyming partner Parrish Smith. In 1994, Jive Records released Murray’s debut single, “The Most Beautifullest Thing in This World”, which was quickly followed up by his debut album of the same name, released to both critical acclaim and commercial success. Along with his solo work, Murray is known for his association with the Def Squad, with whom he released an album, El Niño in 1998.
