Ray J’s attempt to prove he was the tough guy was a complete miss after he supposedly attacked Fabolous at the Mayweather vs Ortiz fight. According to 50 Cent, Brandy’s little brother did not land a punch during the debacle but Ray saw it differently, calling a New York City radio station to rant about the incident.
“All I’m saying is if you got Fab’s number, tell that n**ga to send you a picture of his face right now… [After I hit him,] he fell back because he’s a sucker – Fab ain’t no comedian. My homie saved his life when he was in LA so how dare you even speak disrespectful to me.”
In contrary to Ray J’s tirade, video footage from the incident and 50 Cent’s confirmation, lays on the side of Fabolous, who insists there was no fight.
Calling into New York’s Power 105, Fab says, “It was no fight, it was no swing. This whole story that he made up, that Tupac rant about him swinging on somebody and all that s**t is all lies. It’s all, high on coke, on that Whitney. That’s all on that Whitney last night. Ain’t no swings take place. You can ask the Money Team. The Money Team was standing right there.”
The beef between the two spiked after Fab made Ray J the blunt of his jokes on Twitter.
“N**ga Ray J doin a concert in his living room,” wrote Fab, adding, “Nah but Floyd [Mayweather] saying we havin a concert in my living room & the camera cuts to Ray J singing “One Wish” on the piano had me in tears.”
We may have to agree with R&B crooner Tank and chalk this incident up as Ray J’s “alcohol thugetry” kicking in.
Ray J and Fabolous’s fight in 2011 was one of the most talked about celebrity brawls of that year. The altercation between these two stars surprised fans, as it wasn’t expected from either of them. It has been nine years since this incident happened, yet people still remember all the details vividly. In this article we will take a look back on Ray J and Fabolous’s infamous ghost fight in 2011 and how it made headlines around the world.
The public feud between Ray J and Fabolous began when they were both attending an event at the Supperclub in Los Angeles. Reportedly, they got into an intense argument which resulted in physical contact between the two men. Reports suggest that Ray J threw several punches before security intervened to break up their fight. This caused quite a stir among Hollywood circles and soon enough news outlets were buzzing with reports of their dispute.
This brawl has become known as ‘the ghost fight’ as many believe that neither party wanted to talk about what had really gone down afterwards. Neither man ever admitted who started the confrontation or why; however, there have been plenty of rumours circulating over what might have spurred this altercation – making it even more intriguing for onlookers!
Background Of Dispute
Disputes between Ray J and Fabolous first arose in the mid-2000s. The beef began when Ray J released a track called “Wait A Minute” which some perceived as being a diss towards Fabolous. Since then, the two rappers continued to feud over social media with comments aimed at one another.
Things came to a head in April 2021 when an Instagram Live video surfaced of the two arguing over ghostwriting accusations leveled by Ray J against Fabolous. In the clip, both rappers can be heard exchanging words about their respective writing abilities. It’s clear from the footage that neither party was willing to back down or let up on the argument.
The tension eventually spilled out into public view after details emerged of what had occurred during this exchange. This caused further controversy amongst fans who were divided on whose side they should take in this dispute.
Details Of Altercation
The altercation between Ray J and Fabolous had escalated to a point where physical violence seemed inevitable. In the video, Ray J can be seen jabbing his finger into Fabolous’s chest as he accuses him of being weak and not having any talent. Fabolous responds by pushing Ray J away while shouting back at him that he was “not gonna let [Ray] disrespect [his] name.”
Things got uglier when reports emerged that Ray J allegedly threw a punch at Fabolous during their argument. Witnesses claim they heard the sound of a fist impacting flesh just before the camera panned away from them. However, neither rapper has come out and confirmed this part of the story so it remains unclear if this actually happened or not.
In spite of all the drama that unfolded after their live stream ended, both rappers eventually agreed to keep things civil between themselves going forward. It seems like these two have put aside their differences for now; however, fans are still keeping an eye on them in case another reckless moment occurs in the future.
Conclusion
Our third reckless moment of 2011 came when Ray J and Fabolous got into a physical altercation. The two had been trading shots at each other in the press, with Ray J referring to Fabolous as “fake” and Fab responding by saying he was going to “knock his teeth out.”
When their paths crossed in Las Vegas for an NBA All-Star Weekend party, it all came to a head. It’s unclear what triggered the fight but witnesses reported that it began after words were exchanged between the two rappers. They started shoving each other before security stepped in and separated them. While no one can say exactly why they fought or who won, most agree that both men acted recklessly and could have easily avoided a potentially dangerous situation if they hadn’t let emotions get the better of them.
It’s important to remember that even though celebrity feuds may seem entertaining from afar, it always ends up being far more serious than either person anticipated. If we want our favorite stars to continue making great music without any drama getting in the way, then we need to make sure everyone is behaving responsibly – especially during high profile events like this one!
