Rapper Krept has broken his silence since it was reported that he was slashed in a knife attack backstage at Radio 1Xtra Live in Birmingham.

Many fans have been responding to the tweet with one saying: "God is with you on this journey. Rest up and bless up."

Another added: "Glad you're on the road to recovery now, get better soon bro," while a third said: "God is with you always, sending you lots of love & wishing you a speedy recovery."

The incident happened last night and as a result the gig was stopped. Radio 1's official press office account tweeted: "Following an isolated serious incident, we have had to stop 1Xtra Live in Birmingham. We are co-operating fully with the police to establish what has happened."

They continued: "We're sorry to everyone who attended 1Xtra Live in Birmingham for the early finish, however the health and safety of everyone involved is always our top priority.

"We are upset and saddened that something like this should happen to a guest at one of our events and we remain in close contact and continue to offer our full support."

Following reports that Krept, real name Casyo Johnson, 29, was slashed, Konan - who he performs with - tweeted to say 'Bros good'.

Krept's management also posted a tweet writing: "Bro's good. Bless."

Birmingham Police added: "Anyone with information can contact West Midlands Police via Live Chat at http://west-midlands.police.uk 8am - midnight, or call 101 anytime. To remain anonymous call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Please quote crime number 20BW/236014J/19."
