Swarmz’ £250,000 Ferrari was recently involved in an accident after it had crashed into a London double decker bus in a 20mph zone, with pictures of the damaged luxury car spreading all over social media. The Ferrari 488 Pista was reportedly a write-off after the incident, which happened on Northumberland Avenue in Central London on May 24. No injuries nor arrests have been reported, it also remains unknown if Swarmz himself was driving the sports car which can reach 205mph.
The rapper shared videos of the incident with his one million followers on Instagram. “Fucking hell man, never crashed a fucking Ferrari bruv”, the 23-year old says in an Instagram story.
“Police were called at approximately 1.50pm on Sunday May 24 to reports of a damage-only collision on Northumberland Avenue, Westminster”, a Metropolitan Police spokeswoman reports. A Twitter user who witnessed the aftermath of the crash posted pictures of the damaged Ferrari with the words “the remains of a Ferrari on Northumberland Avenue. Damaged bus in the background. All three emergency services in attendance along with Westminster’s cleaning team tidying up the mess.” The by-passer did not see the accident but reports “no sign of any injured people or driver. The road was still closed but footpath open.”

The rapper, who was born in Greenwich, released his debut single ‘It’s A Lie’ in 2017, followed up by his 2018 breakthrough hit ‘Lyca’, which has over 60 million streams on Spotify and surpassed 10 million YouTube views within the first six months after its release. His most recent track ‘Houdini’, on which he collaborated with rappers KSI and Tion Wayne, just got released last month. The South East London based musician is influenced by reggae artists such as legendary Bob Marley.
During lockdown the rapper has kept his fans entertained via Instagram livestreams, teasing that “something big” is coming in one of them. Let’s hope that by ‘something big’ he doesn’t mean another luxury car crashing.
