Australian rapper Lazy J was stabbed following an altercation in Sydney in the early hours of Sunday morning (14Oct12).

The rising hip-hop star, real name Jelal Edmonds, was performing at the city's Club Eleven on Saturday night (13Oct12) when he was involved in a bust-up inside the venue, which spilled outside into the street in the early hours.

According to reports Down Under, Edmonds was then stabbed in the stomach before security guards on the door of the nightspot intervened. He was rushed to a nearby hospital where he was in a stable condition as Wenn went to press.

Two men were arrested and have been charged with affray. They were granted bail and will appear in court in Sydney next month (Nov12).
