Rappers often like to show that they're not too rich for their neighborhoods. Many artists return to the blocks that raised them in order to film music videos, but the residents who still live there are known to keep them on their toes. Just days ago, YFN Lucci was in Atlanta filming a music video when shots rang out. While the rapper was uninjured, a 15-year-old boy on the set was hurt when a bullet grazed his finger. Today (June 8), it's being reported that Gunna and Lil Keed found themselves scrambling for cover while in front of the camera, as well.

In a clip shared throughout social media, Lil Keed and Gunna can be seen in their hometown of Atlanta right in the middle of a normal neighborhood as they filmed their forthcoming music video. While they seem to be minding their business with the crew, a barrage of gunshots can be heard. It's unclear how close the shots were to the set, but the cameramen quickly ran for cover.

In follow up photos, it doesn't seem as if anyone was injured and things moved forward with the crew. Check out a video of the moment the shots rang out below.
