Over the weekend, the BET Hip Hop Awards was overshadowed by news that a fight took place backstage between Young Jeezy and Rick Ross which spilled out into the parking lot. The fight in the parking lot, however, ended up involving 50 Cent (a long time rival of Rick Ross) and Ross’s artist Gunplay. According to reports and footage that hit the internet, Gunplay was jumped and his chain snatched by 50′s crew before police came and peppered sprayed him down. Although 50 has been mum about the fight, as if it didn’t take place or involve him, Gunplay called into Power 105.1FM’s Breakfast Club morning show early this morning and dished a few details on what really happened. He told the morning show:
‘First of all, I’m not going to say the donkey’s name [referring to 50] because I’m not going to ruin a career already ruined. We are gonna call him donkey because he’s the donkey of the day. The donkey walks over with 8 other donkeys. I was about to go catch my ride and police told me I couldn’t leave the trailers. I turn around and see the donkey with 8 more donkeys and it was either me jump the barriers and run, or stand, pull up my pants and knuckle it out with the donkeys. So he walks up to me with about 8 donkeys, he nods to one of the donkeys to set it off and we rumbled. I stood up in the paint like a real G is suppose to with five bodyguards that is trained to kill a human with one finger.
I kinda lost my footing and I got back up. It was rumbling, rumbling and then the pepper spray came.
When asked if it was 50 Cent’s crew (IE. Tony Yayo and company) that was involved in
The fight, he cleared that up and said it was just a bunch of security.
That man had security with him. I was by myself like I’m usually am. The police wouldn’t let me out of the trailer park little area [because of the incident with Jeezy and Rick Ross]. I ended up in handcuffs. Listen, ain’t nobody touching MMG man. Ain’t nobody touching me. My face is fine. Niccas is donkeys and as you can see, the last wildebeest in the pack of buffalo, I latched on to him and let him know. If this had happened in Miami, everyone would have been laid out.
Gunplay also claimed he never had a problem with 50 Cent prior to this incident. Meanwhile, TMZ has released footage of the alleged Jeezy and Rick Ross fight (that Jeezy ironically doesn’t appear in) and there isn’t much to see but Rick Ross with his shirt off (per usual), a mirror getting broken and security attempting to make two crews go separate ways.
