Chris Brown has been named in a $50 million lawsuit along with his confidant Sinko Ceej, rapper Yella Beezy and the Live Nation corporation in connection with a series of alleged attacks that occurred during Brown’s 11:11 tour in Fort Worth, Texas.
The 35-year-old “With You” singer has been charged with organizing the attack on four men, according to legal documents reviewed by TMZ Monday.
The plaintiffs in the case, Larry Parker, Joseph Lewis, Charles Bush and Da Marcus Powell, said the incident occurred on July 20 after Brown’s concert at Dickies Arena, the outlet reported.
The four plaintiffs said in legal documents that they had been invited and escorted to the backstage area with a group of 40 women to socialize after the show.
The plaintiffs said in court documents that it took the Forever artist about a half-hour to reach the VIP area of the venue, at which point they were ready to leave.

The plaintiff, Charles Bush, said he greeted the musical artist and told him he had performed well that night, according to the outlet.
Although Brown was initially amiable, a member of his entourage began to stir up trouble by suggesting that Brown and Bush had past personal problems with each other.
Bush said the entourage member told Brown, “Man, don’t you remember you two were arguing?” To which Brown replied, “Oh yeah, we were. What’s up, black? I don’t forget nothing.”
Bush said in legal documents that Brown told his crew members to physically assault him, the outlet reported, at which point a group of seven to 10 men surrounded him and punched and kicked him.
Bush told the court that one of Brown’s associates, known as “Hood Boss,” threw a chair at his head.
In legal documents, the four plaintiffs said Brown also sent Yella Beezy, 32, and her associates to assault Larry Parker while a group of men chased him toward a staircase that ended at a locked door, the outlet reported.
The plaintiffs said Brown ordered the men to “f*** up” Parker, who endured an assault for more than 10 minutes with punches and kicks to the head.
Brown urged his associates to join the assault, the plaintiffs told the court.
The Live Nation corporation was also named in the $50 million lawsuit.
The “With You” singer was photographed in concert on July 16 at the Toyota Center in Houston.
Rapper Yella Beezy, photographed in 2020 in Miami, was also named in the lawsuit.
The four plaintiffs said they all had to seek medical attention in the wake of the attack after suffering “serious injuries” as a result, according to the outlet.
An attorney for the plaintiffs, Tony Buzbee, said one of the four men is still receiving care in a hospital as a result of injuries sustained in the attack.
All four plaintiffs have requested restraining orders against Brown, Sinko Ceej and Yella Beezy, the outlet reported.
