Did Ja Rule get ambushed and jumped outside Sei Less restaurant in New York? Rapper clarifies viral rumors

Rumors of rapper Ja Rule being ambushed and jumped outside the Sei Less restaurant in New York recently went viral on social media. On November 20, 2025, Tasha K posted about the rumor on her X account, claiming that the alleged attack was "pretty phucking bad."

Akademiks TV, the alternate account of DJ Akademiks, also posted about the rumors, alleging that a source close to the rapper claimed the ambush was "pretty bad." The same rumors were also purported by popular X account @SaycheeseDGTL.

However, just hours after the rumors went viral on X, Ja Rule took to the social media platform to clarify the speculations. He addressed Tasha K's initial post, saying she was lying to people on the internet.

He also said that while some people tried to jump him, he was not hurt, further adding that the incident did not occur outside Sei Less.

"Tasha why you lying to these good ppl Yes some b**ch a** n***as tried to jump me, No it wasn’t at sei less and I’m chilling smoking a joint watching SVP wit not a scratch on me…" Ja Rue wrote.

Ja Rule recently accused 50 Cent of telling the Feds that Murder Inc. tried to have him killed

The long-standing feud between Ja Rule and 50 Cent, which began all the way back in 1999, reignited in April 2025, with the former claiming that the latter cooperated with the Feds and told them that Murder Inc. tried to have him killed. For the uninitiated, Murder Inc. is a record label that Irv Gotti co-founded in 1998, to which Ja Rule was signed.

Following Irv Gotti's death in February 2025, 50 Cent took to social media to publish several posts mocking the late music executive. According to The New York Post, one post included a picture of Fiddy smoking a hookah while seated next to a gravestone that read "RIP."

On April 10, 2025, Ja Rule criticized 50 Cent for his posts about Gotti's death when he appeared on The Breakfast Club, saying he was "ready to go nuclear and s**t" on his rival. The following day, 50 Cent responded to the clip on Instagram, writing:

"The Breakfast Club should be ashamed of themselves asking questions that perpetuate violence. This fool has been getting ready to go what he calls nuclear for 22 years. lol Ya man in my Runtz right now."

On April 13, Ja Rule fired back at 50 Cent with a series of X posts, referencing the rapper being shot nine times in 2000 and telling him to stop trolling others till he did something about his attackers. According to XXL Magazine, he called Fiddy a "used car salesman" in another post, writing:

"N***a you’re a used car salesman everything you do is trash music 1 good album after that trash liquor trash tv shows yeah I said it TRASH how many times you gonna make the same show that coke stepped on parenting trash character trash n***a you the garbage man."

The tirade turned more serious after he began replying to fans claiming that 50 Cent ended Ja Rule during their beef in the 2000s. In response, Ja Rule alleged that Fiddy told the feds Murder Inc. "had him shot," which supposedly resulted in them facing a federal indictment.

In another X post, he posted legal documents which supposedly proved 50 Cent talked to the authorities, writing:

"You’re right he told the Feds murder inc had him shot and they put us under federal indictment…Say I’m lying n***a I DARE YOU. N***a said he had to talk yayo out of telling you can’t make this s**t up…"

Meanwhile, Ja Rule spoke about his beef with 50 Cent more recently, when he appeared on Carmelo Anthony’s 7PM in Brooklyn podcast, which premiered on November 10, 2025. According to Revolt, the rapper candidly admitted that he believed hip-hop beefs were "not good for the culture," claiming that his feud with 50 Cent "f**ked up New York Hip Hop."
