Ja Rule slammed ESPN for Milwaukee Bucks Halftime Performance Tweet. ESPN’s social team posted on twitter recalling the nearly year-and-a-half old memory of the rapper asking a Milwaukee Bucks crowd at halftime if they were “reaadddyyy???!” for his performance. Their silent response appeared to indicate that their answer was “no.”
It’s a funny clip—if you’re not Ja Rule —but again, ESPN’s tweet kind of came out of nowhere. As it was, they told their followers to “never forget” the moment, and then punctuated it with a crying-while-laughing emoji:

Ja Rule issued a response that labeled ESPN’s conduct as “unprofessional,” while alleging that they were trying to “discredit” him. He also called for whoever’s responsible to be fired, and continued by saying the issue during the halftime in question was technical in nature. Finally, he accused them of slander and defamation.
I usually mind my business and ignore the white noise but I think it’s very unprofessional of @espn to try and diminish or discredit who and what I am to this culture… whoever post for your social accounts @espn needs to be FIRED…
