Pop beats itself: Chris Brown and Drake involved in large-scale scuffle

Drake and (apparently unreformed) bruiser Chris Brown were involved in an ugly brawl last night at NY’s WiP club.

As with any dust-up, details are a tad chaotic, but events seems to have unfurled like so. According to initia reports, Drake and Maybach Music affiliate Meek Mill were slighted by Chris Brown and his affiliates; the R&B singer had supposedly ordered a bottle over to their table as a mocking gesture (which, as thumb-bites go, seems moderately counter-productive). Drake then reportedly clocked Chris Brown on the jaw, leading to the picture on the right. Numerous participants, including Chris Brown bodyguard Big Pat, got some very nasty injuries indeed.

Subsequent reports suggest that it was Meek Mill, not Drake, who instigated the commotion and flung the bottle. Prefix now report that the scuffle resulted from Drake flipping the bird to Brown and co., and that the bottle-thrower remains at large. All thoroughly complicated, in any case. Video of the incident is available below, although it’s not especially illuminating.
