You can’t make this stuff up. A rapper unintentionally turned a podcast interview into a live PSA on firearm safety when a gun discharged in his pocket. Yep, you read that right…his pocket. The incident went down during the “1 on 1 Wit Mike D” podcast, a show presumably intended for insightful conversations, not impromptu shooting demonstrations.
Around the 47-minute mark, as host Mike D was waxing philosophical about life choices, a loud bang and a flash of light erupted from Texas rapper, 2 Low’s jeans pocket. Cue total chaos. The host, understandably confused, blurted out, “Who shot who? Somebody got shot?” Meanwhile, 2 Low froze, likely doing some quick mental math to confirm he still had all his toes.
After a stunned pause, the rapper partially pulled the gun from his pocket, gave it a casual once-over, and then—because why not—put it back in the same pocket that just betrayed him. He then reassured everyone with the classic, “Everybody good?” Sir, are you good?
This fiasco has, predictably, reignited debates about firearm safety, personal responsibility, and the sheer absurdity of pocket-carrying a loaded weapon without a holster or safety lock engaged. Social media had a field day with the incident, roasting 2 Low with comments like, “How do you reach in your pocket and accidentally fire your gun? He’s got to win a Darwin Award for this.” Another user nailed the sentiment: “Irresponsible gun ownership. Why on earth would it be in your pocket like that?”
Look, gun ownership is a constitutional right, but it comes with responsibilities—like not treating your Glock like it’s loose change. Experts are using this as a teachable moment, emphasizing the importance of proper training, secure holsters, and basic common sense. Guns don’t just “go off” by themselves. There’s always user input, even if it’s unintentional.
For 2 Low, this could’ve been a tragedy instead of just an embarrassing viral moment. Thankfully, no one was hurt, but it’s a stark reminder that carelessness and firearms are a dangerous mix. If you’re going to carry, at least take it seriously. Otherwise, maybe stick to leaving the drama on the mic instead of turning interviews into live-action Looney Tunes episodes.
