Rapper Ja Rule has addressed a mid-air confrontation with fellow rapper Tony Yayo after the pair were involved in a heated dispute aboard a Delta flight from San Francisco to New York City.

Video footage obtained by TMZ shows a tense verbal exchange between the two shortly after boarding on Sunday morning. The clip captures raised voices as passengers turned to look toward the back of the aircraft where the argument unfolded.

According to witnesses cited by the outlet, Ja Rule was seated ahead of Yayo and a companion when he made a remark that allegedly sparked the confrontation. The exchange quickly escalated into shouting across rows.

In posts on X after the incident, Ja Rule appeared unapologetic about the altercation. “These fing clowns…” he wrote, adding, “I saw them when I got on I was laughing like look at these two clowns lol they look like they saw a ghost deer in the headlights they always talking s so I addressed them lol.”

He also said he “popped on these punks” and claimed to have thrown a pillow toward Yayo during the dispute, describing the situation as “hilarious.”

Witnesses told TMZ that Ja Rule repeatedly used profanities and at one point said he wanted to fight. Yayo was heard responding that aircraft are “federal offense territory” and maintained he had done nothing wrong.

Cabin crew intervened and both men were reportedly escorted off the aircraft briefly while the situation was addressed. A spokesperson for Delta Air Lines confirmed that two customers were spoken to by crew members following a disagreement and that one passenger was rebooked on a later flight. The airline said the aircraft continued to John F. Kennedy International Airport without further incident.

It remains unclear which of the two rappers was rebooked. Representatives for Tony Yayo have not publicly commented on the incident.
