Although thrilled about their success on American Idol, the singer recently shared they returned to busking to make ends meet, which led to them being attacked.

With the video not showing a great deal of how the altercation came about, Just Sam shared some information on Instagram. They wrote, The woman in the video attacked me and my sister unprovoked. Nothing like this has ever happened to me before in all my many years of singing underground. Although shaken by the event, the singer insisted, We are okay and we are always safe. I never ever go to the trains alone. Thank you to everyone for having my back. We are great. God is always protecting us. While continuing to find their place in music, fans showered Just Sam with love and support. Love you, Sam. You are always the bigger person. Thank you for being the example.
