Rapper Killer Mike has broken his silence after he was dramatically led out of the Grammys and arrested after winning three awards, blaming an "over-zealous security guard" for the incident.

He was pictured led away in handcuffs and the LAPD said that the 48-year-old rapper, whose real name is Michael Render, was arrestedafter an alleged "physical altercation" during the pre televised section of the show.

"I greatly appreciate the concern ans support, but I am better than OK.

"We experienced an over-zealous security guard but my team and I have the upmost [sic] confidence that I will ultimately be cleared of all wrongdoing,"

"Until that time, keep listening to Michael, and keep going after your dreams."
