The lawsuit, as reported by TMZ, accuses the singer of orchestrating the assault of four men backstage at the Fort Worth stop of his tour on July 20. The plaintiffs, Larry Parker, Joseph Lewis, Charles Bush, and Da Marcus Powell, claim they were invited backstage for a post-concert gathering. They were escorted there along with 40 women but ended up being assaulted instead.

According to the lawsuit, Charles Bush stated that he went to congratulate Brown on a successful show. However, Brown allegedly ordered his men to beat him up after one of them reminded him of their previous conflict. Bush claimed he was surrounded by 7-10 of Brown’s men, who proceeded to punch and kick him. He also alleged that an entourage member known as Hood Boss threw a chair at his head.
The plaintiffs further alleged that Brown sent Yella Beezy and some of his men to “f*** up” Larry Parker, chasing him into a dead-end staircase with a locked door. Parker claimed he was punched and kicked in the head for more than 10 minutes after Brown encouraged all his companions to join in.
The plaintiffs have reported severe injuries requiring various medical treatments. Their attorney, Tony Buzbee, stated that at least one of the victims remains hospitalized and vowed to bring Chris Brown to justice. In addition to the $50 million in damages, the plaintiffs have also filed for restraining orders against Chris Brown, Yella Beezy, and Sinko Ceej.
As of now, Chris Brown and his team have yet to respond to the allegations.
