Chaos breaks out at recording of a Black Lives Matter video.

Chicago rapper King Yella was shot on Tuesday night while filming a Black Lives Matter video in promotion of his NoMore Foundation anti-violence movement.

As seen in the crazy video, he was standing with a group beneath an overpass about to record a scene for the video when a car pulls up and opens fire on everyone in his vicinity. 

King Yella was hit in the elbow and torso but judging from his posts on instagram he's holding up pretty well. His girlfriend was also grazed by bullets during the chaos but walked away with nothing more than a few bruises.

One twitter user seemed particularly happy with the events that took place:
