(1/11/01, 4 p.m. ET) - Cypress Hill protege Sondoobie, of the group Funkdoobiest, was shot during a botched robbery in Los Angeles last week, according to published reports.
Sondoobie was reportedly shot twice in the stomach when a man tried to steal his watch outside a barbershop. The rapper was taken to the hospital and is expected to make a complete recovery.
Funkdoobiest is scheduled to release its fourth album this year. The Los Angeles-based group rose to prominence under the tutelage of Cypress Hill's DJ Muggs, who produced songs on the group's debut album, 1993's Which Doobie U Be?
In addition to his rapping career, Sondoobie has also been a radio personality on Los Angeles's Power 106 and a performer in adult films.
