Rapper Lucki allegedly stabbed in brawl with Playboi Carti's team at ComplexCon in LA as videos go viral

Rapper Lucki was reportedly injured on Saturday (October 3) during a physical spat involving members of his entourage and associates of fellow rapper Playboi Carti at the ComplexCon in Los Angeles, California. Videos that have surfaced on social media appear to show the Chicago artist bleeding from the neck. It remains unclear whether Carti was directly involved in the altercation with Lucki and his team.

In one of the viral videos, a fight can be seen taking place between two groups of people, while Carti is seen standing over a black truck door and watching the altercation unfold.

In another video, Lucki appears to be attempting to escape the scene with what looks like blood dropping from his neck. He initially seems to be trying to get into the driver's seat before being shifted to the backseat. However, authorities are yet to issue any formal statement on the incident.

Lucki, Carti's earlier beef

The incident has renewed attention on an earlier beef between Lucki and Carti. The rappers were involved in a war of words on social media in 2024 after Carti alleged that a post by Lucki was targeted at him. Lucki maintained that his comments were not directed at Carti, and the situation seemed to have cooled down after that.

ComplexCon's LA debut

ComplexCon is celebrating its 10th anniversary from Saturday through Sunday (October 4) at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Playboi Carti and the Japanese designer Hiroshi Fujiwara are serving as artistic directors for the event. Carti is also scheduled to headline Sunday’s concert at Crypto.com Arena, alongside Destroy Lonely and F1lthy, according to the festival's official lineup. It is the first time that the festival is being held in LA, after years in Long Beach and recent editions in Las Vegas.
