A cousin of rapper Half-A-Mill was stabbed early yesterday inside a Midtown studio while his relative was laying down tracks, police said.
Tonnie Sheppard, 38, was arguing with an unidentified man at the Planet to Planet Studio on West 30th Street when the assailant stuck a knife into Sheppard, cops said.
The blade snapped off in Sheppard’s chest and the handle fell to the ground, according to investigators.
Sheppard ran out of the basement studio and into the street, where he was struck by a taxi. He was taken to St. Vincents Hospital, where he is listed in critical condition.
Half-A-Mill put out an album last year called “Milion,” which features such songs as “Thug Onez,” “Thug Luv” and a bonus track, “Thuggest Enemy #1.”
