Ja Rule is heated over two Fyre Festival-centered documentaries that debuted on Netflix and Hulu last week. Hulu debuted Fyre Fraud, and Netflix premiered Fyre: The Greatest Party That Never Happened. 

Despite some ethical concerns, both docs are indictments of those who organized the festival. They mostly point the finger at the creator, Billy McFarland, but many are also laying a lot of blame on Ja Rule, who was involved in its promotion and was a co-founder.

On Twitter, Ja Rule went on the defensive after the documentaries dropped on their respective platforms, writing in part:  “I love how ppl watch a doc and think they have all the answers. I had an amazing vision to create a festival like NO OTHER!!! I would NEVER SCAM or FRAUD anyone what sense does that make???”

Ja Rule claims the documentaries still do not give the full story.

He, like many have pointed out, also brought up concerns that some people have aired out about the docs.

He also issued an Instagram post about Maryann Rolle, one of the many, many local Bahamian workers who were negatively impacted by the festival not coming to fruition.

Fyre Festival was a music concert event that was allegedly supposed to happen in the Bahamas back in 2017. Social media stars, most notably Kendall Jenner, promoted the festival and Jenner even said that some G.O.O.D. Music members would perform there.

Fyre Festival trended on Twitter after festival goers got to the Bahamas and found out that there was essentially no festival. Billy McFarland is now serving a six-year jail sentence after it is said that he defrauded folks of over $25 million.
