Matters have begun to heat up between Miami rapper Rick Ross and DJ Vlad as the West Coast DJ has filed a $4 million assault and battery lawsuit stemming from an altercation that happened during the Ozone Awards in Houston last week.
Filed today in New York, the suit claims Vlad was attacked by the Def Jam artist’s entourage last Sunday (August 10) after he asked questions in regards to the rapper’s previous corrections officer history for a piece on his website VLADTV.com.
As previously reported by SOHH’s Ya Heard blog, the altercation was, in deed, serious as the suit claims Vlad’s injuries “include 7 stitches below the eye, 3 fractures to the face, a corneal abrasion and possible permanent nerve damage.” Enduring pain to the head, body and limbs, Vlad says that he“continues to suffer great physical pain, mental anguish and bodily injuries.”
An official complaint has been issued by the deejay outlining the details of their interaction including a pre-assault text message from reading “N*ggas will learn…trillaaa” plus more direct threats aimed at him.
Upon realizing who was text messaging him, Vlad had continued reading the lines which said “I’ve been hearing things about me on your website. We gonna make a story. We going to see each other. We going to talk. Where are you?”
Finally meeting up at the event, Ross insisted “We got beef” as his associates began attacking Vlad before leaving the scene as one attacker said “Yeah, motherf*cker, that’s what you get.”
The lawsuit seeks $2 million in compensatory damages and another $2 million for punitive damages.
This latest occurrence marks the most recent controversy Ross has found himself in as a woman has asked for a court-ordered paternity test to prove he’s the father of her 2 year-old son in order to receive child support.
