Houston-born musician 2 Low – real name Cedric White – appeared to accidentally fire a gun in his pocket while he sat down with the podcast host over the New Year.
In the shocking footage shared to YouTube, everything appeared quite calm as 2 Low was seen chewing the fat with the presenter, Michael Dixon, on the explosive episode of One on One with Mike D.
The duo were discussing the current state of the world and the different lifestyle choices people make.
Just as Mike D was getting to the crux of his point, 2 Low slipped his hand inside the front pocket of his jeans, which apparently contained a firearm.

It appeared as though the 46-year-old has quite the itchy trigger finger, as just seconds after his fingers started fumbling around, a loud bang rang out while a flash of orange blasted through his pants.
As I’m sure you can imagine, Mike D never got to finish his point, as he was more concerned about working out ‘who shot who’.
Meanwhile, 2 Low was left sporting a mortified look on his face as he nervously glanced around the studio seemingly trying to weigh up if any damage had been done.
The rapper then pulled what appeared to be a gun out of his pocket briefly, before tucking it back inside.
Mike D then brought some lightness to the situation by jokingly saying that he thought he had been shot, before checking that ‘everybody was good’.
2 Low then added that he ‘hoped’ everyone had made it through the situation unscathed while he was seen assessing the damage to his pants. Warning: Explicit language
On the bright side though, as he was wearing denim which was supposed to look distressed, viewers couldn’t really tell where the bullet had possibly ripped through them.
It isn’t exactly clear where the round ended up, although the podcast host was seen having a good peer around the floor.
So yeah, pretty shocking stuff – but what has left people even more stunned is that the pair picked back up right where they left off after a brief interlude.
Mike D and 2 Low quickly resumed their conversation, seemingly brushing the gun scare right under the carpet.
No injuries were reported following the incident and Mike D reshared the footage of the extraordinary moment to his Instagram stories alongside the caption: “Viral AF is an understatement.”

He also shared a clip to his YouTube channel, writing (via news.au): “X Rap a lot artist 2 Low almost (gun emoji) himself on camera. Thank God everyone was OK.”
2 Low himself also responded, adding on Mike’s clip on Instagram of the moment: “U said u was starting season 2 off wit da Big guns. Da main thang we all safe negativity sells n get dem talking so run it up fam.
“Happy New year may we B Blessed 2 see a mill mo while playing wit a [money emoji]. Dat way.”
