<p>Atlanta rapper Killer Mike, 49, is making headlines once again, this time for speaking out about his recent arrest at the 2024 Grammys. The rapper released a new single titled “Humble Me” on Sunday, June 30, moments after addressing the incident during his BET Awards acceptance speech.</p>

<p>Killer Mike, whose real name is Michael Render, used his two-and-a-half-minute track and its accompanying black-and-white video to reflect on the shocking arrest, which occurred shortly after he won three Grammy awards in the rap categories.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In the song's third verse, he raps, “I won at the Grammys for spitting my grammar, did that for Atlanta / Did that for Atlanta, bruh, swept up like a janitor / Got sent to the slammer, bruh." The lyrics further reads, “Treat me like an animal or some kind of Hannibal, vicious and cannibal / The Devil be doing you, right when you doing it, the Devil'll ruin you.”</p>

<p>He continues, “Behind me Satan, I walk out the door with my head up in handcuffs with pride / ‘Cause all of my heroes wore handcuffs, the FBI shot some of them and they died.”</p>

<p>Killer Mike also describes “sitting there in a room full of cops like Daniel was sitting with the lions” while maintaining his faith throughout the ordeal.</p>

<p>The arrest took place on February 4, when Killer Mike was detained by authorities and escorted out of the Grammys in handcuffs after winning best rap song, best rap performance and best rap album during the show's pre-telecast ceremony.&nbsp;</p>

As the rapper basked in the glory of his Grammy wins for "Scientist & Engineers" and "Michael," security concerns arose at the Crypto.com Arena with the arrest incident. A video shared by The Hollywood Reporter's Chris Gardner captured the moment when Killer Mike was escorted out by officers from the Los Angeles Police Department. The LAPD later confirmed that an adult male was detained for a physical altercation at the arena's 700 block of Chick Hearn Court and subsequently arrested. Now, in a statement shared with PEOPLE, Killer Mike has addressed the situation, attributing it to confusion surrounding entry doors and an "over-zealous security guard." Expressing confidence in his eventual exoneration, he urged fans to continue listening to his music and pursuing their dreams. "As you can imagine, there was a lot going and there was some confusion around which door my team and I should enter. We experienced an over-zealous security guard but my team and I have the upmost confidence that I will ultimately be cleared of all wrongdoing. Until that time, keep listening to Michael, and keep going after your dreams," Killer Mike said in the statement.

"I greatly appreciate the concern and support, but I am better than OK," he said. The rapper also revealed that his son, who has been on the list for a kidney transplant for years, has finally found a match. "We are incredibly proud and are basking in this moment. I am also grateful that one of my prayers has been answered – the day after my Grammy win – I learned that my son, who has been on the list for a kidney for years, finally has a match. Obviously, we are elated," the statement read. In a post shared yesterday on X, LAPD RIO revealed that the rapper has been booked for Misdemeanor Battery 243(A) PC. "The suspect has been identified as 48-year-old Michael Render and booked for Misdemeanor Battery 243(A) PC, and is in the process of being released," the statement read.
