Survives, but is now Dickless!
A 40-year-old rapper known as "Christ
Bearer" sliced off his penis and jumped from the second-floor balcony of
his North Hollywood apartment today, but survived what was believed to be a
suicide attempt.
The rapper, whose real name is Andre Johnson,
was seriously injured in the fall, which occurred at about 12:50 a.m. in the
4500 block of Colfax Avenue, police said.
Johnson is a member of Northstar, a group
affiliated with the Wu-Tang Clan.
Associates told the website TMZ.com that Johnson
jumped up, cut off his penis and then leapt from the balcony. One media report
indicated that Johnson got up after the jump and ran around screaming
incoherently. His associates said Johnson was not doing any "hard drugs."
Los Angeles Police Department Officer Nuria
Venegas told City News Service no drugs were found at the scene and no arrests
were made.
"It's an apparent suicide attempt but we
don't know why he tried to kill himself," she said.
Johnson was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center
in critical condition, according to TMZ. His current condition was unknown and
it was unclear if doctors were trying to reattach his organ.
Johnson performs under the name "Christ
Bearer" with the artist Meko the Pharoh as the duo rap group Northstar.
Northstar is listed as a Wu-Tang Family Group member on the Wu-Tang Clan's
website, WuTangCorp.com, which also has posted at least five Northstar videos
dating back to 2003, the year Northstar released its debut album, "Bobby
Digital Presents Northstar."
According to Johnson's Facebook page, he lists
himself as a "member of the WestCost Killa Bee Group Northstar"
discovered and signed by RZA in 1998. RZA, whose real name is Robert Diggs, is
the Wu-Tang Clan's chief producer.
Some fans posted get-well wishes on the Wu-Tang
Clan site and Johnson's Facebook page. Johnson has posted a host of messages on
his Facebook page in recent weeks, mostly uplifting. One of them read, "Be
mindful of what you throw away, be careful of what you push away and think hard
before you walk away."
