Busta Rhymes was arrested and charged with second degree assault, after he allegedly hit a man with a bottle of Muscle Milk while at a New York City gym on Wednesday, August 5.
The 43-year old rapper, real name Trevor Tahiem Smith Jr., got into an argument with another workout warrior at the at Steel Gym in Manhattan. The disagreement led to the tossing of the protein shake.
Scott Leemon, Busta's attorney, told TMZ this was a frivolous attempt to get money out of his client.
"This is another attempt to take advantage of Busta's celebrity status," Leemon said.
Busta has been released from jail on his own recognizance.

Prince Jackson is 18-years old and doing his own thing.
The eldest of Michael Jackson's three kids was recently photographed smoking a hand rolled "cigarette" with MJ's doctor, Alex Farshchian.
TMZ reports that the pics were snapped while the two were on board Farshchian's yacht on Tuesday, August 4th. The "cigarette" was being passed around to others as well.
We're not suggesting the two were smoking anything but tobacco, however it does look odd.
Whatever the case, they appear to be having a good time.
Farshchian treated the King of Pop some years ago in an attempt to wean him off of Demoral and substitute it for a less additive synthetic substitute.

Apple Music is off to a roaring start.
According to Variety, 11 million users have registered for the free trial since it launched on June 30th. Out of that number close to 2 million have selected the $15-per month family plan, which allows access to up to six users.
The true test for the company will be whether it can hold on to users who haven't already signed up for a plan.
The standard plan is $9.99 for a single member.
One of the way Apple hopes to bring in more new users is by offering exclusive content. Music giant Dr. Dre will launch his next album, Compton: The Soundtrack, via Apple on Friday, August 7th. The entire project will be streamed starting Thursday at 9 PM ET and running to 12 AM ET.
Drake will launch his next album on Apple Connect. In addition the company has enlisted an impressive number of guest DJs for it's Beats 1 internet radio station, which plays music live 24/7.
The artists signed up include Dr. Dre, Drake, Jaden Smith, Pharrell Williams, Elton John and more.
It will be interesting to see who wins the battle between Spotify and Apple for music consumer's hard earned money.

"I was already under the assumption that these motherfuckers don't write their own shit...This shit been going on for years."
When asked about ghostwriting, Philly emcee Ar-Ab says it's nothing new. He then mentions Diddy's famous line, "don't worry if I write rhymes, I write checks," and says he even doubts "Kanye write all his own shit." At this point, Ar-Ab feels the last thing rappers should be worried about is what other artists are doing, as they should focus more on perfecting their craft. "It's like boxing - you want to be the best at it," he explains.
Ar-Ab continues on to say most choruses on Hip-Hop/R&B collabs usually aren't written by the rappers themselves. He states it's okay because a chorus is just a topic, whereas a verse is an emcee's own personal perspective. Hear more on his thoughts on the topic taking over the rap world above.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — Experts have confirmed that the debris found on Reunion Island last week was that of Malaysian Airlines flight 370 that went missing last year, Malaysia's prime minister said Wednesday.
"It is with a very heavy heart that I must tell you that an international team of experts has conclusively confirmed that the aircraft debris ... is indeed MH370," Prime Minister Najib Razak told reporters.
Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak
The Boeing 777 jetliner disappeared 515 days ago on March 8 while on a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board. It is believed to have crashed in the Indian Ocean, but the reason remains one of aviation's biggest mysteries.
The first ever physical evidence of the aircraft was found on the French territory of Reunion Island in the Indian ocean, thousands of miles (kilometres) from the site near Australia where the plane is believed to have gone down.
"We now have physical evidence that, as I announced on 24th March last year, flight MH370 tragically ended in the southern Indian Ocean," Najib said.
"The burden and uncertainty faced by the families during this time has been unspeakable. It is my hope that this confirmation, however tragic and painful, will at least bring certainty to the families and loved ones of the 239 people onboard MH370. They have our deepest sympathy and prayers," he said.
Intact and encrusted with barnacles, the metal piece was sent to France for scrutiny by the French civil aviation investigation department known by its acronym BEA, and members from its Malaysian and Australian counterparts.
In a statement, Malaysia Airlines said the part of the plane's wing, known as a "flaperon," which was found on Reunion Island on July 29 had been confirmed to be of Flight 370.
"Family members of passengers and crew have already been informed and we extend our deepest sympathies to those affected," it said.
The statement said this "is indeed a major breakthrough for us in resolving the disappearance of MH370. We expect and hope that there would be more objects to be found which would be able to help resolve this mystery."
In addition to confirming the provenance of the 777 flap, analysts say the investigators will examine the metal with high-powered microscopes to gain insight into what caused the plane to go down. It is also not known why the plane turned back from its original flight path and headed in an opposite direction before turning left and flying south over the Indian Ocean for hours.
Jackqita Gomes, the wife of crew member Patrick Gomes, said she was informed by Malaysia Airlines about the news half an hour before Najib's announcement.
"Now that they have confirmed it as MH370, I know my husband is no longer of this world but they just can't leave it with this one flaperon. We urge them to continue searching until they find the plane and bring it back," she said.
"We still need to know what happened. They still need to find the plane. They still need to find the black box to get the truth out," she said. "It brings some sort of closure but not a complete closure. We don't know what happened and where the plane went down. It's not over yet."
Gomes said she hopes to get her husband's body back so that the family can give him a proper burial and say goodbye.
She said she watched the announcement on TV with one of her daughters, while her youngest child, a 15-year-old son, was asleep.
"My son doesn't know yet that his dad is really gone, that he won't be back," she said, in tears. "I will have to tell him tomorrow before he goes to school."
Highly technical efforts to extrapolate the jet's final hours before it would have run out of fuel gave force to the theory that it went down somewhere in the southern Indian Ocean.
No one is certain why the plane deviated so far from its planned route.
Analysts have said a close look at the wing part could indicate what kind of stress the plane was under as it made impact. It won't fully solve the mystery of why the plane disappeared, nor will it help pinpoint where the plane crashed.
A six-week air and sea search covering 4.6 million square kilometers (1.8 million square miles) of the southern Indian Ocean surface early last year failed to find any trace of the jet. The Reunion Island debris would be consistent with the working theory that the jet went down in the Indian Ocean and the debris travelled with the ocean current which moves counter-clockwise.
Malaysian officials, who are leading the investigation into the plane's disappearance, have said the plane's movements were consistent with deliberate actions by someone on the plane, suggesting someone in the cockpit intentionally flew the aircraft off-course.

Since last year, Australian officials who are leading the search effort have operated on the theory that the plane flew on autopilot for hours before running out of fuel and crashing into the ocean. Investigators settled on this scenario after analyzing data exchanged between the plane and a satellite, which showed the plane took a straight path across the ocean. Australian Transport Safety Bureau chief commissioner Martin Dolan said last year that investigators assume the autopilot would have to have been manually switched on, again suggesting that someone in the cockpit deliberately steered the plane off-course.
In defining the search area, the Australian Transport Safety Bureau also operated on the theory that the crew was unresponsive, possibly suffering from oxygen deprivation, as the plane flew on autopilot. The agency said this was indicated by the loss of radio communications and a long period without any maneuvering of the plane, though it emphasized this was only a working theory and did not mean that accident investigators led by Malaysia would reach a similar conclusion.
A loss of cabin air pressure could cause oxygen deprivation, or hypoxia, which could make pilots unable to perform even basic tasks.
Some analysts argue that the apparent lack of damage to the piece of wreckage indicates a controlled landing on the ocean, with the jet sinking largely intact.
Another theory is that the jet plunged into the water vertically — high dive-style — snapping off both wings but preserving the fuselage. Yet another possibility, supported by a flight simulator, is that an out-of-fuel Boeing 777 would belly-flop heavily tail-first, disintegrating on impact.
