IKYFL: Bryson Tiller Allegedly Bitten By College Students During Howard University Visit

The singer's appearance was chaotic, to say the least.

Who knew college kids would lose their mind over a Bryson Tiller appearance at their school? On Tuesday, the 29-year-old R&B singer went to Howard University. He experienced much success with his 2015 album, Trapsoul. Tiller has been working on a new album, releasing its lead single โ€œOutsideโ€ just last month.

Though there hasnโ€™t been an official album release date, his fans are anxiously anticipating it, to say the least. The Louisville native made a stop at the university and students were beside themselves. Tiller was surrounded by swarms of people, all ready with their camera phones to get a picture of the performer. But just how wild did things get?

According to one Twitter user, Tiller was accosted and allegedly bitten by fans. โ€œI actually feel bad for Bryson Tiller because yโ€™all have no decorum at all...there should be no reason this man was on the GROUND getting bit and stepped on.โ€

Videos of the incident are circulating around social media, showing the artist trying to escape an intense crowd which led him to fall:

A Howard University student noted that behavior like this is the reason they canโ€™t have anything nice:

โ€œYโ€™all was trampling over people for Bryson Tiller and he ainโ€™t even perform no music. And yโ€™all think we getting DRAKE???โ€

Although Tiller thanked his fans on social media after the incident occurred, one person simply wasnโ€™t buying it. โ€œI keep seeing new videos of Bryson Tiller and in each one he looks scared for his life,โ€ the user remarked.

Hopefully, lovers of his music will show up like this when he drops the new projectโ€”minus the biting.
