A Waka Flocka Flame rap concert was canceled following a deadly shooting on the campus of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte on Tuesday night, April 30. One man was taken into custody after a shooting on the campus which left two people dead and injured four more.

The rapper, real name Juaquin James Malphurs, was scheduled to perform a free gig for students at the Jerry Richardson Stadium on the campus alongside rapper Saweetie and boy band Next Town Down.

Waka, 32, took to Instagram to express his regret and share his prayers for those affected by the tragedy.

"I pray all my fans are safe and ok! (Not) sure what's going on, I just landed in Charlotte to terry [sic] news!" he wrote on his Instagram Stories. "I will not be able to perform or even make it to the venue. Please to all my supporters and followers be safe."

He later tweeted to concerned fans that he was "nowhere around" the university and was "safe".

Suspect Trystan Andrew Terrell, 22, was taken into custody by the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department after he was disarmed of his pistol by two or three campus officers, according to Mercury News.

The motive for the shootings is unclear. "I just went into a classroom and shot the guys," the suspect told reporters Tuesday as officers led him away in handcuffs.

He faces two counts of murder and four counts of attempted murder.

But they aren't acting scary when they see a Whyte male who fits the description of a mass shooter! I can't lie, I get scared when I see Whyte males, Those muthafuckers are stupid in the head!

  • leapyearpisces

    I am telling yall I am convinced certain facial features / structures are connected to one's propensity for violence / crime. Look at that boy...HE LOOKS LIKE a murderer. I swear that has to be something to it...yall ever notice that folks who do stuff like this have that "Neanderthal" / Low forehead? I also watch out for people with "wild eyes" - you know folks that have those eyes that always looked like they are high off of caffeine or something, eyes always "blared" wide open.
    Imma get me some investors that will invest in some clinical trial or whatever the research would be called on this. I am convinced facial features can measure one's propensity for violence. I'm bout to get on my Tom Cruise Minority Report steez for real.

    Also shout out to all the students at my alma mater (UNC-Charlotte)

    LOLOLOL You wrote, "White males are stupid in the head"... yet if you have a job they are the ones who give you your paycheck, Section 8, welfare, affirmative action and the rest. You can hardly walk down the street in an all black neighborhood In Detroit, Baltimore, or Chicago to name a few without the risk of getting shot! But mostly any black person who gets a bit of money want to move around who???? White folks. I'd rather walk down the streets of Beverly Hills 4 'o' clock in the morning than in Baltimore or Detroit. Niccas killing up each other left and right. No really, get your mind straight. More black folks are shot up each year than the shooting carried out by white serial killers. By labor day 2016 500 black folks had been shot in Chicago and the year wasn't even over.Nearly all of those killed were black men, shot to death in alleys and on street corners by other black men. Get real my friend! How many people were killed by white serial killers in 2016? Roughly 55 people, if that!

    The thing is that only white, and normally male, serial killers such as Ted Bundy become popular culture icons. The same goes for "missing persons." Black people go missing too. The biased news reporting practice of selectively covering missing person cases involving young, white females is known as “missing white woman syndrome” (MWWS). The news media are far more likely to cover serial homicide cases involving white, female victims than serial murder cases involving black folks. Not saying white folks don't do some crazy sh*t but you're exaggerating.
