Grammy-nominated rapper Remy Ma was arrested on charges of attempted murder in a shooting outside a trendy Manhattan nightspot, police said.
The 26-year-old rapper, whose real name is Remy Smith, had been sought for questioning in the shooting of a 23-year-old woman early Saturday after a verbal dispute near a bar in the Meatpacking District. She reported to police Saturday evening and was also arrested on charges of assault and criminal possession of a weapon, police said.
The rapper's manager said Saturday that she could not talk and referred calls to Remy Ma's attorney, who was with the rapper as she reported to police.
"I ask everyone to keep an open mind," attorney Scott Leemon said. "Things are not always as they seem."
He said an arraignment would be likely be held on Sunday.
A 911 call reporting gunfire led police to a woman with a gunshot wound. Three blocks away, officers discovered a luxury SUV owned by Remy Ma; the vehicle had been involved in a single-car crash and abandoned, police said.
The victim, Makeda Barnes-Joseph, was in stable condition at a hospital.
Sasha Tcherekoff, owner of the Pizza Bar, said a review of security videotape taken inside his nightspot showed the rapper and her friends having a good time before they exited.
"The police have indicated to us that the altercation happened a block away," the owner said. "The security tapes determined there was no physical or verbal altercation while they were in the Pizza Bar."
Remy Ma was nominated for a Grammy as part of the Terror Squad for the 2004 summer smash "Lean Back." She also earned the "Best Female Hip Hop" award at the 2005 BET Awards.
She went on to a solo career, releasing last year's "There's Something About Remy." She has appeared on recordings with best-selling performers including Fat Joe, Eminem and R. Kelly, according to a biography on her Web site.

I feel bad because the chic she shot(allegedly) is attractive.
Remy Ma is a "B" level rapper anyways.........
Hey maybe this will get her publicity and she can come out with an album that actually sells.
But then again.....I THINK HIP HOP IS GARBAGE.

I don't care if either of them live or die! I give the Roman "Thumbs Down"(Symbolically) to both. Would you have felt better, had I been more general, and said they are both POS Fuckheads?

just one less wack rapper to worry about. in the rap community, more and more it seems that a verbal confrontation ends with a gun poppin off. its really sad
New Orleans, no place like home.
