The 46-year-old musician "2 Low" was a guest on the podcast"One on One with Mike D" last week to talk about his career and future plans.

After around 47 minutes, the shock came: "2 Low" put a hand in his trouser pocket when a loud bang suddenly rang out.

"Who shot who? Was someone shot?" asked the presenter shortly afterwards, while the rapper paused in shock.

The questions were quickly answered in the negative. A little later, "2 Low" partially pulled the apparently loaded gun out of his pants, but put it back in when a crew member exclaimed in shock: "Ah, what the f**k!"

After the shot, the US rapper asked the audience if everyone was okay, then looked at his leg in disbelief.

The 46-year-old later wrote on Instagram in the direction of podcast host Mike D: "You said you wanted to start season 2 with big guns. The important thing is that nothing happened to any of us. Happy New Year!"

The video quickly went viral and some users expressed their concern about the unsecured weapon. Some users were very skeptical about the whole story and suspected that the action was a PR stunt.

One of the internet users joked that the second season of the podcast had started with a "bang".
