This article is a LIE! I was at Download this year and watched the whole of the Bizzle set from near the soundstage. Yes, he did get stuff thrown at him, and yes the reason was because a section of the crowd didn't like him/didn't think he should be there. BUT, Bizzle himself stated before the show that he didn't know why he'd been invited, so when he said "We've been set up!" he was making a joke, as he continued to do for the rest of the set. Within about five minutes he had won the majority of the crowd over, and although *some* bottling continued during the set, much of this was because he was more or less inviting it - he wasn't whining and complaining about it, he was making it part of the act, dodging and volleying the incoming, and receiving cheers from the crowd when he caught stuff. Basically, the crowd was pretty good-natured, Bizzle handled himself expertly and won most people over in the end, even if they did still leave a bit bemused as to why he was there.
