Chaka Zulu Allegedly Fired Back in Self-Defense After Being Shot

Chaka Zulu Allegedly Fired Back in Self-Defense After Being Shot Outside Atlanta Restaurant

Co-CEO of Ludacris‘ Disturbing Tha Peace Records, Chaka Zulu was shot outside Afro-Caribbean restaurant APT 4B in Atlanta this past weekend. He’s currently in critical condition recovering from the gunshot wounds. TMZ has reported that Chaka apparently shot back in self-defense at the person who shot him on Sunday.

Multiple sources who have viewed surveillance footage from the deadly incident have stated that after Chaka and his assistant and another friend left the restaurant, they were approached by someone who had words with Chaka. As things escalated and the conversation became more intense, the other man kept his hand on his waistband before a young lady pushed another man away from the music executive.

After Chaka grabbed the man after he bumped him, a group of about 3 or 4 other men, who were standing nearby when the confrontation started, rushed in and knocked Chaka to the ground. They followed with a punch along with kicking and stomping Chaka. At that point in time, another man approaches between two vehicles and brings out a gun, and fires at least 2 rounds. This is when Chaka, in self-defense, who was also armed, is seen getting back up on his feet and firing at least one shot in return.

A source close to Chaka stated that he was shot at least once, with the bullet hitting close to his heart. He’s currently listed in critical condition.

No one knows the cause of the confrontation but there is speculation that the man was not allowed entry into a party.

A 23-year-old man, who was identified by the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office as Artez Benton, was also killed during the harrowing incident and it’s still unclear who shot him.

An incident report from the Atlanta Police Department was released after the incident took place:

Preliminary Information: On 6/26/22, around 11:35 pm, officers responded to multiple persons shot at the location of 2293 Peachtree Rd. Upon arrival, officers located three adult males with gunshot wounds. The victims were transported to the hospital where one of them was later pronounced deceased. Homicide investigators responded to the scene to begin investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident. This investigation remains active and ongoing at this time.

Who is BIG CED?

Big Ced is…
The only guy that can look like Bernie Mac AND Ma$e at the same damn time.
Hit The Road Sam from the MC Lyte “Paper Thin” video
The geeky trifocal glasses wearing mofo from the “Monie In The Middle” video
Matter of fact…he’s the first male video vixen. He’s a Mixen.
Real talk tho… He’s a good dude. Pause.
He’s a great entertainment resource to have and he’s a good mentor, big brother figure and friend.
But he’s still sarcastic as hell.
Even though most of his jokes be missing the mark, we still laugh along with his punk azz.
He’s like a termite… or is it the cockroach… he’ll be around forever.
Ok for real now? Who’s this Big Ced guy you’re asking me about? Never heard of him.
