A man is suing Busta Rhymes, claiming the rapper and his crew beat him up after he spit on their car. The man, Roberto LeBron, 20, says that he was kicked in the head by the rapper, who was flanked by his nine bodyguards, last August. In what appears to be a separate incident, Busta is also facing assault charges from an incident last August 12th. In that case, he’s accused of beating up a fan after his performance at a music festival on Randalls Island, New York. In another incident, Busta is going to separate trials on various charges of DUI, driving with a suspended license, and assaulting a former employee.

“Busta Rhymes’ legal woes continue after he was named in another lawsuit from a man who claims to have been assaulted by the rap star.

“Roberto LeBron filed the legal challenge in Manhattan state Supreme Court on Thursday, following an altercation in August last year.

“He claims to have been kicked in the head in a fracas with Busta, real name Trevor Smith, and his nine bodyguards at a music festival on Randalls Island.

“The hip hop icon is already due to face trail following an incident at the same gathering. It is currently unclear if the two cases are linked, reports Billboard.

“In the coming months, Busta Rhymes must answer separate charges of drunk driving, driving with a suspended license and attacking a former employee.”

That means that Busta’s currently got five major trials to worry about. Hope he’s a good multi-tasker. The prosecution offered Busta a plea deal of one year in jail for all of the four charges. Busta refused. In two of the cases, the prosecution tried to join the trials but the motion was refused by the judge. Talk about a lot on your plate. He was even given a second shot at the plea deal, and again refused. Dude seems to think he can do better on his own. I’m assuming he’s banking on his celebrity, because the odds that someone with four separate criminal trails would do better with a jury are slim. It will be interesting to see how all of these trials play out, and if they affect his career in a negative or positive way. One would assume doing time would be a bad thing, but lately it just seems to heighten celebrity.
