Ja Rule Fires Back After Blogger Claims He Was Jumped in NYC: “Not a Scratch on Me”

Ja Rule is calling out what he says is pure fiction — and taking aim at the blogger who pushed it.

The 49-year-old rapper erupted on Friday after online personality Tasha K claimed he’d been “jumped” outside a New York City restaurant. The allegation ricocheted across social media within minutes, sparking rumors that the rapper had been badly beaten.

Ja Rule, however, insists nothing of the sort happened — and he says anyone claiming otherwise is playing with legal fire.


Ja Rule shuts down the story: “Why you lying to these good ppl?”

On Thursday night, Tasha K told her followers that she was “being told it was pretty f---ing bad,” alleging Ja Rule had been attacked.

By Friday morning, Ja Rule directly quote-tweeted her and dismissed the entire story:

“Tasha why you lying to these good ppl… Yes some bitch ass n----- tried to jump me… I’m chilling smoking a joint watching SVP wit not a scratch on me.”

He did not elaborate further on the attempted attack, but made it clear he walked away unharmed.

When Tasha K doubled down — claiming she had “receipts” and inside sources — Ja Rule fired back again:

“You like getting sued I see…”

He later posted a video of himself laughing in a hoodie, sipping from a red mug.

“Believe half of what you see and none of what you read… we good over here!!!”

Neither side’s representatives have responded to requests for comment.


Why Ja Rule vs. Tasha K went viral instantly — and why he's so quick to threaten a lawsuit

This blowup didn’t happen in a vacuum.

Tasha K has a long, controversial history of publishing unverified celebrity claims — including the Cardi B defamation case that resulted in a $4 million judgment against her. That history makes any allegation she posts instantly explosive… and instantly suspect.

For a high-profile artist like Ja Rule, whose past legal troubles have often been weaponized online, letting rumors spread unchecked comes with real stakes.
A public “jumping” narrative — even if false — can damage credibility, business deals, or the carefully rebuilt public image he’s cultivated over the last decade.

So when Tasha K claimed she had footage and anonymous “inside” sources, Ja Rule responded in a way that suggests he’s prepared to treat this the same way Cardi B did: as potential defamation.

This is why the internet latched onto it so fast — and why Ja Rule reacted so bluntly.


The back-and-forth escalates online

Tasha K continued to insist she had information about what “really happened,” claiming Ja Rule knew her team was present and teasing that she was “ready to spill some wine.”

She also posted a screenshot of what she said was a source describing the incident, though no official confirmation or video has surfaced.

“Everything is allegedly!” she wrote — adding, “Even my name is allegedly!!”

Ja Rule’s response made clear he wasn’t amused.

The rapper declined to share more details about who confronted him or why.


What’s next?

With both sides publicly digging in, the dispute has now become a full-fledged online standoff between a rapper battling a decade of rumor-driven narratives and a blogger with a massive following — and a history of costly legal battles over the truthfulness of her reporting.

For now, Ja Rule says he’s fine, uninjured, unbothered — and watching sports at home.

But if his tone is any indication, the story may not end with a tweet.
