Wale says he doesn’t just fawk people up for no reason. Wale Explains Why He Fought Man At WWE Event Wale is feeling some type of way, but he says clapping back at fans who jump out of pocket isn’t reason enough to label him a beyotch. According to MTV News: Wale has gotten into confrontations with antagonists on Twitter in the past, but things escalated from behind a keyboard to face-to-face on Monday night. The Maybach Music Group rapper was at a WWE event in Washington, D.C., when a fellow attendee began instigating on Twitter. A user with the handle @Chefboyrnach fired off a series of since-deleted threatening tweets: “Did wale just walk by me!?

I come from a place where when we was at the lunch table and n—as was jonesing on each other, I’ll respond. I’m gonna have something better, too. And now we’ve come to a place where, if you respond, you’re a b***h. Somebody could say ‘F— you’ 100 times, if I say ‘f— you’ back, then I’m a b***h. And people be like, ‘You’re famous, you shouldn’t care.’ “ He admits that’s not the case with him, though. “I care what people say because I try to be a man of the people.” Do you think Wale’s catch fade was justified?
