Chris Brown and fellow artist Yella Beezy are facing a $50 million lawsuit filed by four men who allege they were assaulted backstage at Brown's 11:11 Tour concert in Fort Worth, Texas. The lawsuit, filed in Harris County, Texas, names Brown, Beezy, tour promoter Live Nation, and other members of Brown's team as defendants. In addition to monetary compensation, the plaintiffs seek temporary restraining orders against all defendants.

As reported by TMZ, the incident allegedly occurred on July 20 at Dickies Arena, where Larry Parker, Joseph Lewis, Charles Bush and Da Marcus Powell were invited backstage to meet Brown following his performance. According to the complaint, Bush approached Brown to congratulate him, but a member of Brown’s entourage reminded him of a previous conflict between the two by stating, “Man you don't remember you two were beefing?” Following this, the plaintiffs claim that Brown and multiple members of his entourage began to punch and attack Bush.

The lawsuit further alleges that Parker, who attempted to flee, was cornered and attacked by Brown’s entourage following his direct orders, and was subjected to being assaulted for over 10 minutes. Powell and Lewis were also reportedly physically attacked and suffered from injuries that required medical treatment, with one of the men in the group reportedly still hospitalized.

This incident adds to the list of Brown’s violent history. In a highly publicized domestic violence case, Chris Brown pleaded guilty in 2009 to assaulting his then-girlfriend Rihanna, an incident that garnered extensive media coverage and widespread condemnation. Brown's former manager also sued him for assault and battery in 2016, and in 2017, his ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran obtained a five-year restraining order against him citing incidents of physical abuse and threats.
