The feud between Machine Gun Kelly and Eminem has now spilled into real life, at least according to one actor. Gabriel Rodriguez, known for his roles on Power and The Walking Dead, says he was attacked by people in Machine Gun Kelly’s entourage in Atlanta after confronting the rapper about his Eminem diss track, “Rap Devil.”
In footage obtained by TMZ, Rodriguez tells his side of the story. He says he approached Machine Gun Kelly at a Twin Peaks restaurant and told him it was wrong to go after Eminem’s family in the song. According to Rodriguez, the rapper shouted at him, gave him a shove, and his crew surrounded him.
Rodriguez claims he was later asked to leave the restaurant, and that the manager told him the rapper’s status made it hard to do anything. He also claims police stopped Machine Gun Kelly and his group from going back inside after the argument spilled outside.
Later that night, Rodriguez says, he was walking through the parking lot of his hotel when members of the rapper’s group recognized him and the confrontation turned physical. He says he ended up in the emergency room with facial injuries.
Rodriguez says he plans to sue, but told TMZ he would drop the lawsuit if the two men agreed to a fair one on one fight with waivers and no entourage. These are Rodriguez’s claims, they have not been proven, and no response from Machine Gun Kelly was included in the footage. We will update if he speaks on it.
