Most people won't be shot once in their lifetime, rappers included. There's notorious stories of rappers who's been shot but rappers who been shot in more than one occasion is very rare. The artists on this list have been shot by themselves, rivals, and (allegedly) family members, from the South, to the Midwest, to the West and East Coasts. Here's what we have—Torii MacAdams and Peter Walsh

Beanie Sigel

In May 2006, Philadelphia rapper Beanie Sigel was shot in the arm during an attempted robbery. Sigel fled the scene and drove himself to a nearby hospital. Recently, Sigel was shot at his brother-in-law's New Jersey home. Though authorities initially commented that it was a "wrong place, wrong time" incident, his sister-in-law, Kamilah Salahuddin was named as a person of interest.

ODB

The Wu-Tang Clan's dirtiest bastard was no stranger to bullets. In 1994, ODB was shot in the abdomen by another rapper during an argument in once-dangerous Bedstuy. In June 1998, ODB was at his girlfriend's apartment when two robbers invaded and shot him in the back. The bullet traveled through his back, then arm, and exited through his body. Despite being advised to stay in the hospital overnight, ODB left of his own accord.

2Pac

Despite being shot twice, neither of 2Pac's two incidents have been solved by police. 2Pac believed the initial incident, in November 1994, to have been a setup by Puff Daddy and inveterate criminal James "Jimmy Henchman" Rosemond. 2Pac wouldn't be so lucky the second time– after attending the Bruce Seldon vs. Mike Tyson boxing match in Las Vegas, the BMW the rapper was riding in was riddled with bullets. Though he didn't die at the scene, 2Pac's wounds caused massive internal hemorrhaging, which proved to be fatal.

Lil Jay

Lil Jay claimed to have been shot 10 times, but a June 2013 incident added one to the count. Sitting in a car near a McDonald's, the Chicago rapper was ambushed and shot in the butt. Various internet sources claim that Jay's been shot 16 or 21 times, though only the unhappy meal he was served is verifiable.

MF Grimm

MF Grimm's initial shooting in 1986 left him temporarily wounded, but a 1994 incident involving a rival drug dealer left the New York rapper blind, deaf, and paralyzed. Grimm would later regain his vision and hearing, but the paralysis remained, leaving Grimm in a wheelchair.

Lil Wayne

Lil Wayne's brushes with death are a bit unusual. At 14, Wayne was holding a gun and impersonating Notorious B.I.G. in a mirror when he accidentally shot himself in the stomach. There are conflicting reports about the injuries Wayne suffered in a 2001 tour bus shooting, which vary in severity from none, a graze, and a slug in the chest. The perpetrators are apparently unquestioned– jilted groupies looking for revenge.

Suge Knight

Suge Knight was shot six times at a pre-VMA party hosted by Chris Brown at 1Oak in West Hollywood in the early hours of Sunday Aug. 24. In 2005, Suge was also shot in right leg ) at the Shore Club. in Miami at a Kanye West party.

Bonus: Young Dro

Young Dro is in the rarified air of rappers who've been shot in multiple incidents and retained use of their extremities. At 16 year olds, the Atlanta rapper was shot in stomach, which caused internal injuries requiring the use of a colostomy bag for a year. In a 2008 interview, Dro claims that a former classmate attempted to rob him. Only after escaping did Dro realize a bullet had passed through his Polo pants.
