00:04after three men sucker-punched him before his set, denies Max B's involvement.

00:10Ja Rule didn't wait for blogs, PR teams, or second-hand narrators to shape the story.

00:15The 49-year-old rap veteran looked completely unharmed.

00:19His tone was animated but calm.

00:21Shut down every false detail circulating online.

00:25According to Ja Rule, the situation unfolded backstage at Brooklyn's Barclays Center

00:29during Brandy and Monica's Boy Is Mine tour stop.

00:32One of them sucker-punched him from behind without warning.

00:35No weapons were involved, no one was seriously hurt, and the conflict lasted only seconds.

00:40Despite the suddenness of the ambush, Ja performed immediately afterward.

00:44From the start, he aggressively shut down claims that Max B or his crew

00:49had anything to do with the altercation.

00:51Leave Max B the heck out of this, he said repeatedly.

01:13One of the strongest and most widely discussed parts of Ja's livestream came when he compared the treatment of black artists at hip-hop events

01:20to white artists in mainstream genres.

01:23He argued that if the same attack had happened to Bruce Springsteen, Taylor Swift, or any major white performer,

01:29the assailants wouldn't have made it out of the building without being arrested.

01:32Ja framed this as part of a long-standing double standard.

01:36Social media's response to the incident was immediate and relentless.
