Police are investigating rapper Remy Ma for an alleged assault after a “Love & Hip Hop” star claimed hip hop star slugged her during an event at Irving Plaza, police sources told The Post.
Brittney Taylor told police that the Bronx rapper, whose real name is Reminisce Smith, punched her in the right eye at about 9:30 p.m. at the venue near Union Square, the sources said.
Ma has not been arrested or charged with a crime, law-enforcement sources said.
Taylor, a personality on the show “Love & Hip Hop: New York” and an up-and-coming rapper herself, went to Mount Sinai Hospital to be treated after the alleged assault.
She reported the crime at the 13th Precinct station house the next night, the sources said, adding that police were at the event on Tuesday, but Taylor didn’t report it that night because she may have been embarrassed.
Britney posted a picture of her black eye on Instagram and said … “So, here am I on my way to a very important meeting and it’s hard to even focus because of what occurred last night. I didn’t wanna bring it to social media because Its pretty embarrassing and not a good look tbh. I tried my best to cover it up with make up and move on but that still didn’t work. My Question is @remyma why did you really do this?”

The NYPD has since launched an investigation, and if arrested, Remy Ma could be in major trouble since she is currently on parole for a previous case. The rapper served six years in prison for shooting one of her former friend over cash. She was released in 2014 and on probation.
Remy Ma has remained silent amidst the accusations from Brittney Taylor. The two Love and Hip Hop females have a history of beef between them. They both got into a heated confrontation during the Love and Hip Hop: New York Reunion last year, which say Taylor hurling some insults towards Remy including calling her a man.
