Z-Ro opens up about the fight with Trae Tha Truth
Z-Ro, whose real name is Joseph Wayne McVey IV, sat down with TMZ following his messy altercation with Trae Tha Truth and his crew.
He shared his side of the story claiming that he was ambushed by Trae’s crew after the 42-year-old rapper asked to talk to him.
The ‘I Can’t Leave Drank Alone’ artist said, ‘I was at 50 charity dinner on Saturday and some supporters asked for a pic. Then I saw Trae approaching. He asked if he could Holla at me. I turned around to see who he was talking to and he asked if I could follow him to the side of a sprinter bus.’
He continued, ‘I’m thinking we [are about] to talk like 2 grown men, but I was sucker punched. When that happened… several other dudes (who I don’t have affiliation with) jumped in.’
The 45-year-old rapper then pointed out that the leaked footage does not reveal the whole truth behind their fight.
He mentioned, ‘The video circulating is a portion of what took place. The beginning, where I was asked to come over, is not shown! At the end of the day, I came to the event One Deep to meet my artist Lolita Monreaux. So we could support 50.’
