Rapper Toxic Lyrikali has confirmed that he was attacked in Kiamaiko, Nairobi, in an incident that left his car vandalised and reignited concerns over his escalating feud with drill group Buruklyn Boyz.
The artist took to social media shortly after the incident, reassuring fans that he was safe despite the confrontation.
“Muache wasiwasi,” he wrote, telling supporters not to panic following reports that he had been ambushed in Kiamaiko.
Videos circulating online show a tense scene in the Kiamaiko area, with a crowd surrounding a vehicle believed to belong to the rapper.
In the footage, individuals appear to confront him before his car is damaged.
The extent of the damage has not been officially detailed, and there has been no immediate statement from police regarding arrests or investigations linked to the incident.
The Kiamaiko attack comes just days after an earlier confrontation involving supporters of Toxic Lyrikali and Buruklyn Boyz in Donholm estate, Nairobi.
According to witnesses and widely shared clips, groups linked to both camps clashed in Donholm last week, heightening tensions between fans.
While details remain fragmented, the incident marked a turning point in what had initially been a musical rivalry.
Following the Donholm confrontation, Toxic Lyrikali distanced himself from any street violence, insisting that disputes should remain within the realm of music.
“We don’t co-sign violence or property damage. Whatever happened in the streets is not something I ordered… let the music talk, let the numbers talk, let the people decide,” he said in a statement shared online.
The rapper’s remarks appeared aimed at cooling tempers, but the Kiamaiko attack suggests tensions may still be running high among rival supporters.
The fallout between Toxic Lyrikali and Buruklyn Boyz has largely played out through a series of diss tracks that have dominated Kenya’s drill scene in recent weeks.
Both sides have released songs challenging each other’s lyrical ability, street credibility and dominance in the Nairobi drill movement.
The tracks have attracted significant online traction, racking up thousands of views and fueling debate among fans.
What began as competitive artistry has now spilled beyond studio walls.
Buruklyn Boyz have not issued a formal statement directly linking themselves to the Kiamaiko incident.
However, supporters of both camps have continued to exchange accusations across social media platforms, each blaming the other for escalating the feud.
For Toxic Lyrikali, the Kiamaiko incident marks one of the most serious public confrontations tied to his career.
Despite the vandalism of his vehicle, he maintained a composed tone in his initial response, focusing on reassurance rather than retaliation.
As of publication, authorities have not released an official statement detailing what transpired in Kiamaiko or whether investigations are underway.
It is also unclear whether any injuries were reported during the incident.
Residents in the area described the scene as chaotic but brief, with the crowd dispersing shortly afterward.
The feud between Toxic Lyrikali and Buruklyn Boyz now appears to be at a critical point.
While diss tracks remain central to the rivalry, the Donholm confrontation and the Kiamaiko attack have added a volatile dimension.
Fans have taken sides, with hashtags linked to both artists trending intermittently.
Some supporters have urged reconciliation, while others have encouraged the release of more music in response.
