Rapper Arrested in Assault on Busboy
Police arrested rapper Memphis Bleek early Thursday after he and another man allegedly beat up a busboy at a Manhattan nightclub.
The 23-year-old victim told police that the assault occurred after he entered a VIP room at the NV club to clean off a table. He claimed Bleek — a protege of Jay-Z whose real name is Malik Cox — and Ravelle Talik Smith punched him in the face and head, knocking out a tooth.
Police officers arrested Bleek, 25, of Monroe, N.J., and Smith, 26, of Queens, at about 1:50 a.m. outside the club after they exited a side door and the victim pointed them out. They were awaiting arraignment on misdemeanor assault charges.
