All hell broke loose at a star-studded Cannes after-party event when an altercation involving rap artists Travis Scott, Tyga, Alexander "AE" Edwards, and 808 Mafia producer Southside erupted, RadarOnline.com has learned.
Sources familiar with the situation said drama kicked off when Travis and Tyga were on stage behind the DJ booth, at which point promoter Richie Akiva took the microphone and told attendees something along the lines of, "We got T-Raww, AE and Travis in the building."
Travis allegedly then grabbed the microphone for an unbeknownst reason, which led AE to make a remark toward Travis, according to TMZ.
AE and Tyga are known to be close and it was alleged that Travis threatened Tyga's security before storming offstage and returning with Southside, which fueled the tension.
Southside and AE were seen pushing each other, and AE seemingly landed some punches before Travis pulled AE away from Southside, and nearly fell offstage as a result.
Some thought Travis and Tyga were fighting, but insiders said it was actually AE and Tyga's assistants pummeling Travis.
Fortunately, no one was seriously hurt and security managed to break it up, it was reported.
In the video footage, Richie was also heard condemning the fighting at the event. "Stop! Stop! Stop!" he declared.
"You want to take that s--- outside, take that sh-- outside, but respect me!" Richie added. "Mother f------, respect me!"
Tyga, AE and others appeared to be unfazed after the melee, with tipsters claiming they stayed until early in the morning.
