2000s rapper exits flight at SFO after throwing pillow at rival

"The raspy baritone vocalist was recorded confronting fellow rappers Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda after they allege Ja Rule fired first by tossing his seat pillow at them. "This is the pillow Ja Rule threw at me," Tony Yayo says in a clip before Uncle Murda stands over a vacant chair, saying that "this is where he was sitting before we got him out of here.""

"Ja Rule later took to social media to laugh about the situation. "I threw the pillow at yayo head cuz you soft," he wrote. Tony Yayo and Uncle Murda were both on the label G-Unit, co-founded by 50 Cent. The Delta flight is the latest salvo in a long-lasting feud between Ja Rule and 50 Cent. A noted nemesis of Ja Rule, 50 Cent has traded barbs with the 2000s-era rap star since 1999."
