A series of brawls broke out during a party on the Harvard University campus on Saturday night (October 27) after a DJ threw on the controversial Crime Mob song “Knuck If You Buck.” According to the Harvard Crimson, the altercations occurred at an after party for the annual Harvard Society of Black Scientists and Engineers step show. The event, which took place in the University’s Lowell House dining hall, attracted over 400 students from Harvard as well as Boston University, Boston College, MIT and other schools. At around 1:00 a.m., when the DJ played “Knuck If You Buck,” Crime Mob’s crunk anthem that has been blamed for inciting violence in the past, a fight broke out on the dance floor.

“That’s a song where everybody goes wild,” said Jarred Watson, a Northeastern University student and party attendee. “The crowd started touching each other and bumping into each other. Then I saw a whole bunch of people screaming, and I saw people fighting.” The fighting soon spiller out into the Lowell House courtyard while Harvard University Police Department officers tried to quell the situation. Eventually, the HUPD was joined by six state trooper cruisers and several Cambridge police vehicles. Two men were taken into custody in connection with the brawl, but were later released without charges. “Knuck if you Buck” caused controversy in January of 2006 when 16 year-old Baron "Deuce" Braswell II was stabbed to death while the song was playing during a party in Fredericksburg, VA.
