General Awesomeness Or Fail: Video Of Attempted 2 Chainz Robbery Surfaces Posted by Danielle Harling on 06/13/13 | Filed under General Awesomeness, 2 Chainz, Fails

Before Atlanta rapper 2 Chainz endured a solidified fail, which consisted of the rapper being arrested at LAX airport after allegedly being busted with marijuana, there were reports that he was robbed at gunpoint while in San Francisco. He went on to downplay the robbery reports via Twitter and and even took on somewhat of a sarcastic tone while addressing the alleged incident.

Rule #1 if a rapper gets robbed people usually post items that has been taken. Rings, chains, watch , money etc. 2 answer that question

Well, since this is in fact 2 Chainz' own personal "Fail Week 2013," TMZ has obtained surveillance video that appears to show 2 Chainz and his entourage being approached by a man at gunpoint while casually walking down the street. They proceed to run like the wind and this is where our story is sprinkled with a bit of general awesomeness. Clearly, 2 Chainz is not the rapper you wan to hang with during the zombie apocalypse because you will not outrun that man and you will be eaten every time.

There is some legit awesomeness to the video. First off, no one was actually injured during the incident. Second, no one attempted to do anything terribly stupid. Botched robberies sometimes end pretty tragically, so thankfully the San Fran robbery turned into a track and field meet and not an episode of "Law & Order." But 2 Chainz' handling of the matter via Twitter was an easy fail.

I have no idea what to label this incident, but I do hope 2 Chainz' "Fail Week 2013" doesn't seep into next week.

Nathan Update: Chainz bodyguard, who for the record did absolutely nothing to guard Chainz' body, had this to say:

"All of a sudden three dudes just jumped out with huge guns, .357 Magnums. They pointed the guns at us and we was like 'Whoa!' We thought it was a joke for a minute. We looked at them, we stopped, kinda paused. We thought it was a joke. Then all we heard was, '2 Chainz give it up.' So we like stood there and didn’t do anything, and we kinda like froze, cuz we wanted to see if this was real. All of a sudden, the next thing you know, 2 Chainz kinda like backed up a little bit. And then he said, 'Give it up. Give it up.' And then all of a sudden he took off. He took off running first. When he took off running, we took off running. Then all of a sudden these dudes, they just start shooting. I don’t know where they shot at."

"TMZ got it all like we just left and left him standing there, and we just took off. But he started running first, and we took off after he took off. So I don’t know what they trying to make it seem like. The bottom line is he just fell, the dude he grabbed his wallet from him, and his cell phone from him, and that's all they took. He has his chains on him, his bracelet and all that, and all his jewelry with him and they ain’t touch none of that. All they did is they got his wallet, and like I said, he ain’t got no money in his wallet. The bottom line is, man, it was a setup. We know it was a setup so, that's why he told the police we will handle it."
