Max B is shutting down swirling rumors linking him or his crew to an alleged altercation involving Ja Rule earlier last night.
The speculation erupted online after videos and conflicting reports suggested the Queens rapper had been “jumped” at the Brandy and Monica tour stop in Brookyln, New York — but Max B says his name shouldn’t be anywhere near the controversy.
The situation began when blogger Tasha K claimed Ja Rule was attacked outside a New York restaurant, alleging he was “jumped pretty bad.” Soon after, additional reports pointed to a separate backstage incident at the Brandy & Monica show at the Barclays Center, where a brief scuffle involving Ja Rule was captured on video.
The unclear details and multiple versions of the story led social media to start assigning blame — and Max B’s name quickly got thrown into the mix.
With rumors gaining traction, Max B took to X (formerly Twitter) to set the record straight. “Don’t tie me or my people to anything negative. We grown — we on positive vibes only,” he wrote.
“The internet loves to make up stories… But let’s be clear: Max B ain’t got no problems with nobody. No drama, no beef, no narratives. The Wave is home and focused on Family, music, and positive vibes only. Stop trying to attach the Wave God to fake stories to get clicks…”
The Harlem rapper, who was recently released after serving more than a decade behind bars, has consistently emphasized staying focused and avoiding drama as he transitions back into his career.
Ja Rule has also responded to the chatter, dismissing claims that he suffered a serious attack. “Not a scratch on me… we good over here!!!” he said on social media, appearing unbothered by the incident and shutting down speculation that the situation left him badly injured.
