Ray J's legal controversies
Ray J has been entangled in various legal disputes over the years. One of his earliest controversies dates back to 2011, when he got into a conflict with rapper Fabolous, as per RapUp. The feud started after Fabolous made jokes on Twitter about the singer playing his song “One Wish” on a piano inside Floyd Mayweather Jr.'s house. The American R&B singer confronted Fabolous in Las Vegas and allegedly punched him, which resulted in his arrest.
In a later interview, he defended his actions, claiming he took offense because playing the piano was part of his daily routine. However, three years later, he publicly expressed regret, admitting that he had gone through a difficult period of self-reflection following the altercation.
Another legal dispute occurred in 2014 at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel, where a woman accused the singer of inappropriate behavior. Although the police determined that the alleged misconduct was unintentional, he was asked to leave. The situation escalated when he reportedly became aggressive, leading to his arrest on charges of vandalism, resisting arrest, and battery against a police officer, according to LA Times.
Despite his legal issues, Ray J's music and acting have been loved by many. He is the founder of Raytroniks and has also introduced a line of consumer electronics to the United States market.
