- Two documentaries from Hulu and Netflix follow the infamous music festival's cofounders Ja Rule and entrepreneur Billy McFarland, their teams, festivalgoers and others through the disastrous event.
So glad I'm poor. I don't have the money to be duped to this degree.
LosAngeles.323 I’m glad I’m poor too
I work a lot so i agree with u
LosAngeles.323 when money costs you sweat, blood and tears of actual hard work shit like this doesn’t happen to you, even after you do make decent amounts of it. A lot of these were clueless, privileged kids.
@@jcnot9712 fuck them that's what i say.
@john boss I'm not that poor either but some people are so rich they just throw money around. The rest of us actually have to think "is this too good to be true?"
It's not fraud, it's false advertisement- Ja😂😂😂
Shows how dumb he is
I slapped my forehead so hard
THAT WAS REALLY DUMB LOL
Isaiah the prophet of god Morales dude is sad this is well after 50 cent machine gun his career Billy McFarland put the last bit of dirt in the grave of JA this dude should be Billy’s cell mate
that through me off 😂
The tents always kill me whenever I see them 😂😂😭😭
Right?? The best part is, _there WERE actual luxury villas set up!_ Billy and the celebs he was expecting to attend were all provided with the best digs, and he tossed everyone else into that heap of garbage. What a fucknut.
Wobbles and Bean 😂😂tell me about it what a joke
They are really bad tents, I don’t understand who thought it was a good idea to design such a tall tent with so many small flapping panels to be used as a disaster relief
FEMA tents smh
Jahaajhahajashaahahaajajaa😂
Girl at 4:32 has a voice that sounds EXACTLY like the voice of the kind of person that would go to Fyre Festival
Haha!!
HAHAHA, exactly!
Like oh my gooood
Orbitron Oh my Gosh🤣
Lmfaoooo
I love the phrase social media "influencers". If you are influenced by anyone on social media. Get help
Well said!! 😂
Hahahahaha 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾
Alex Chipman yes!
This right here!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Right?! People can only have influence if they’re allowed to.
90% of their problems could have been avoided if they just used a cruise ship like the yoga hippie suggested.
They would have pulled it off too if they did it on the first island, anker a cruise ship then build a fenced dock to that ship,near the ship have a cool floating dock that moves with the ship, this way no one falls in the water. Have a well trained lifeguards patrolling the island the entire event and lower from 10k to 7-8k ur good.
They would have made a lot of money.
The cruise ship like u said solved food, bedding, hygine, medical emergency, can even have a dr on board with support staff.
Yes! When he first mentioned toilets, it suddenly made me think of my parents. Because they would think of that first... where the fuck are you going to use the bathroom? That guy had the proper sensibility of an adult. Everyone else were little rascal trying to build a club house.
The difference between a mature adult and a young adult is, mature ones consider necessities and facilities over amenities.
The whole marketing scheme was showing off amenities only.
99% problems could have been avoided, if they never made decisions with drinks in their hand, every single time. 🤔

Ohhh good point. all of them a complete mess.
THAT WAS MY FUCKING FIRST THOUGHT OMG DUDE GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE!
"A comp ticket to FyreFest 2018" Im shocked that he has the nerve to think there is going to be a part 2. 😂😂😂
If I had an once of his confidence I’d rule the world
The audacity 😂😂😂
Oh btw at the of the docmuntery he tries to pull a scam and they show it. It is crazy a guy was adout to blow someone off omg its crazy but it shows wow people will buy into a festival like this
I know this is an old post but I just watched this video. The fact he thinks there would have been a 2018 fire festival shows me just how arrogant Billy McFarland is. And I saw last week that he announced a Fyre Festival 2 since he’s out of prison now. He still an arrogant a**h***!
If the Titanic would have been a festival.....this would have been it!🙈🙉🙊
Keep in mind that the titanic was worth the first class and second class prices
They dint false advertise
Yes except no one died at Fyre Festival.
That’s a stupid comparison I hope you know that. Go watch the movie Titanic 🙄
@@LCx829 STFU! Your mother was stupid for giving birth to your cry baby ass!😒😒😒
@@LCx829 seen the movie ten times.....eye said what eye said! Go to Germany and call them!😒
Ja rule is not a music mogul. He is an artist who had hit records in the past.
AND....got chumped out of the music scene when he was on top 🙄
I died twice when I heard he said he was a Music Mogul. When and Where?
Carline Daniel I know right. They got the game twisted. If Ja Rule was really a mogul, he wouldn't have attached his name to such an amateur business endeavor.
Dre is an example of a mogul. Ja did duets with Ashanti...
right. they kill me lmao
“It was a no brainer” I wish spending $4000 on a concert was a no brainer....
Lol right? Must be nice. I check my checking account before I eat so I can see how much or how little food I can order 😭
Apparently the majority of the tickets were much less, and as low as $500 for two weeks in the Bahamas, all-inclusive.
Jan Cal damn, idk if I can feel bad for anyone who actually thought they’d get all that for $500
@@JonxNgo LOL
Watch the documentaries. Most people spent much less than that.
Dude is talking about going into “survival mode”. Bro, you’re on a beach in the Bahamas. You’re fine.
That’s literally what I was thinking... 😅You’re not on lost.
When you have nothing you dont now what is going to happen at all
I think Ja Rule should also be indicted. His name is clearly involved in all aspects of Fyre App and Fyre Festival. He was one of the founders if im not mistaken. Saying he is not liable but says otherwise before it happened. Who are you fooling Ja Rule? Such a scumbag. 🙄
He is a co-defendant in the civil lawsuits that have been filed. The reason he is not in jail with McFarland is that Billy is the one who directly committed wire fraud and SEC violations.
I doubt he would tarnish his name like that. He is already a millionaire.
He don't wanna be in prison again
Ja didn't take any money. He got hussled too lol
Then start "Icon" which is basically the same thing, in the documentary he even says "They're similar. " he's a clown. And a fake. That's why he didn't cement his legacy in Hip Hop, cause HE'S NOT A HIP HOP ARTIST, all of his hits were R&B, He ain't no damn Mogul. He's a one hit wonder. He KNEW it was a scam, just like the rest involved did. He should've been barred just like Billy & Grant. I think the saddest part about this whole event was there was whistleblowers, weeks, months before the event was to happen providing factual information about the event but because of all the hype from the celebrities advertisements people didn't research it enough and got screwed.
That director of the Netflix documentary should be proud of himself! His documentary was absolutely wonderful!! And I give him all the props in the world for not paying Billy for an interview! Good work, my man! ~~
The YoPancake Show no a lot of ppl that weren’t part of them participated in the documentary
@The YoPancake Show But the Netflix film isn't through Jerry Team excluding their experiences. The thing is it's more of the process that was made, the advertising team didn't even know what happened at the "islands" during development and were only payed for the first party just for the advertisement. It isn't the teams fault, it's even their first time. Just because it's a company in which a client was the "bad guy" does not mean to not support them. If you believe in them or not, that's fine. Just don't fill up with lies that could be easily be solved with both research and common knowledge.
Baka Neko so true!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@The YoPancake Show honestly who gives a shit about them...considering everything that asshole did BEFORE this event, THIS event, and the following scams he tried to pull while on bail. I salute Netflix for not paying the thief.
Baka Neko - the netflix documentary was WAY better!
Billy is only 25??? Looks about 45!
With a double chin lol
Guilt weights you down
Too. Much. Booze.
It's the booze and drugs and partying. He's gonna look much older when he gets out of prison and even older when he gets out a second time when he inevitably gets arrested again for his next scam.
I thought this too. I was shocked to learn he was only mid 20s when all this happened....I thought he looked closer to 37 or 40
Why do they insist on calling Ja Rule a hip hop mogul
Calton Joseph cause he is a hip hop star with his label murder inc before he got in trouble with the feds in 2003
Well you said it yourself. He was a star at one point but never a mogul. I think that word is reserved for ppl like jay z and diddy. You know, ppl that have been successful for decades
I know..... he's a little black hobbit.
#facts...I’m saying the same thing. Nipsey was a mogul and they keep calling him a rapper.
@@supaman7832 he had less than like 10 songs and nobody heard of him until he got his brains blown out
@4:20 Sits in a tent and call it "survival mechanism kicks in" 😂 omg man I'm glad you survived the school bus ride.. Lol
Me too
I'm so glad the manicured millenial survived his 2 days on a paradise island in the Caribbean
Like being stranded in florida for 2 days
At least they weren't naked and afraid
*"Nobody died" - Ja*
*Also Ja "I had nothing to do with it"*
Guess what Ja. No one died around me in my 40 years of life on Earth... so... I guess by your gorilla logic I can charge thousands of dollars/weekend for people to come and experience the Macio Luko life?
Right? Fuck that dude. His pink ass got away with everything.
@@TheInfamousWolf he got in trouble with the feds once
This is a Wolf of Wall street type comedy waiting to be made
Making a movie about this is a waste because it's already been documented. Story was already told.
Wolf of Wallstreet had child abuse in it. Comedy?
@@insaneone4369 First and foremost, Jemel is referring to a feature film, not a documentary. These are not the same things. Second, people have been making movies and documentaries about World War 1 & 2 for decades. And guess what? People watch them. If something proves to be successful aka these documentaries, you'd be a stupid business person not to capitalize on it in some way. And lastly, you seem like kind of an uneducated asshole. I saw another one of your comments and statistics show that poorer people or poor millennials such as yourself are far more likely to be taken in by a scam. That's why most of the packages purchased were for $500-$2200, not $250,000. Poorer people are more likely to buy into crap like weight loss supplements or hair growth miracles.
@@katydid917 you're comparing world wars to The Fyre Festival that never happened? Sad.
Insane One check Netflix, it’s trading lol
I had a friend who went he bragged for months about it boasted it in the bar and everything and the rest is history 😂
Didn't age well...
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That one moment when being too broke to participate works in your favor.
If you pay a thousand dollars to watch blink 182, that’s on you - best line.
'Darwinism at it's finest' lol
Migos I could see but not for over 1k .
If you listen to Ja Rule it’s on you
i'd pay a thousand dollars for blink 182 if tom returned to the band
Ja rule has a story to tell

I watched both of the documentaries on Hulu and Netflix. Now I see why 50 has clowned ja rule all these years. Because he is a CLOWN!!!! Lol
jovon J- He looked so thirsty over the fact that he was friends with this guy. He came off looking pathetic.
@@calvthomas6153 the funniest shit was when, ja rule said at the end of the Netflix documentary.....it's not fraud it false advertising 🤣 🤣 🤣
I kept thinking “cringe” anytime he spoke in Netflix Doc. Esp the part with the models at night on the beach.
@@DragonShades right I'm like shut up! You have no idea of what you're talking about lol.
Right. He sooo weak famous or not.
Fyre festival? More like Refugee challenge.
This happened 2 years ago and I'm just hearing about this?
Lmaaaao than he talks about the chicken sandwich
Kanye North Have you been living in a cave??
I’m just hearing about it now in 2021 😂
Who got paid? They had $27M but seems like they didn’t pay anyone.
They need to start by paying the people in the Bahamas first....
DCI JLuther the models got psi for sure....
it looked like to me that it was spent on their own partying before the event
How did he afford that pent house if he was broke? I think he stashed some of the money.
No, they need to start with refunding the customers first. Can’t take ticket money from a customer to pay a Bahamian and not provides said services for ticket customer.
@@billybobbobson5346 na vendors first; the yuppie can deal with the financial loss a lot better and for a lot longer
"All guests will be given a comp ticket for Fyre Festival 2018" 😂 That's worth negative money.
Danielle Oesch so true
those ppl must have been like “2018?? Who the fuck would come back here again “ 😂
@@a42nut1inct6 I would. I mean you still can lay out on the beach lol
@@chamacorunner1 There wasn't a beach at that development where they ended up lol
That's wrong they will also throw in free bottle service.
I believe it's something fancy like Fiji
Maybe have Aston Kutcher in it and he can make it look like their all just being punked.
"I too was hustled, scammed, bamboozled, hood winked, lead astray!!!" - Ja Rule.. he forgot desperate to regain relevance.
I have seen college keg parties better organized. MacFarlane's and Ja Rule know what drinking thinking is? This plan was so half baked from the start! They should of gotten some professional advice. These two bozos had zero business sense.
These two were high and drunk through this whole documentary 😁.
They did xD
@@LorettaBangBang they just didn't listen to any of them lol
How is meeting models a " cultural" event?
Exactly. Its definitely not a Bahamian cultural event like the annual regatta which was scheduled the same time. Suck teeth dread. I'm glad Maryann got her money. I pray she uses that blessing to be a blessing to some of the other natives from Exuma who got hood winked and bamboozled.
And they’re not even models, well some of them are, but they’re mainly influencers.
Dunno. American culture?
The guilty need to be punished but seriously, I don't think anyone feels sorry for the attendees. This is the definition of vainness.
Allow me to translate for you. Its a "cultural" event because a bunch a guys were hoping to get lucky with a model.
Don’t forget how he tricked them out of more money by making them buy the Fyre wristband 😂😂😂
Vain people getting scammed by vain people using vanity
I agree. That is why I don't feel bad for those scammed except those people in the bahamas who worked and never get paid
Why Ja Rule?! Why Ja?! WHY?!!! Ugh... not a good way to make it back to the game. SMH.
Why is every body mad at Ja Rule?
Ja got a new story to tell

"Everyone is getting a comp ticket to Fyre Festival 2018" - Billy McFartland
Lmao
Daycon Inc and there wasn’t a Fyre Festival 2018
I wonder how that's working out... setting up fyre 2018 while being in prison lol
Confidence level at 1000% at all times 🤣
As an event planner, both films gave me NIGHTMARES. McFarland should have gotten 20 years.
PAY those island workers!!!!
Now THAT would be an example of beauty....and humanity...
3:55 *even the bus driver was laughing at these rich pricks getting bamboozled* 😂
@Jake Dean sounds like you got scammed. A hit dog will holler.
@some random guy you must be really poor if you don't have 500 dollars.tragic
@Jake Dean well you probably also had to pay for your airplane ticket, thats would make it about 2k $ for 2 airplanes tickets to that unknown island. Whatever 2k is a lot of money, but i don't feel any pity for them, they probably already had enough of money.
I only feel pity for those of them who actually were poor but thought that this would be a one-chance opportunity to go on a big festival like Coachella and spend their saved money for it.
@Jake Dean Then they payed 3 grand on these "wristbands" because the event was now cashless.
Netflix did a better job with the doc, he deserves way more than 6 yrs
I got a question for Hulu- did you get a refund from Billy since he didn't answer most questions asked?
bethanypdx really though
@vmm12 Maybe his white counterparts can do it, might be more fun for them
ya he scammed them too 😂
They made him look like shit though.
I'm still trying to figure out how he was able to afford that nice ass penthouse suite when he was suppose to be broke?
I am soooo happy they made a documentary on this!!
Ja Rule: “Don’t judge me based off what was in those documentaries I have my side of the story as well”
Also Ja Rule: *refuses to get interviewed but decides to go on a show where you can get drunk while talking about your crimes like it was a joke and get away with it*
they invested in a fantasy, and then got smacked with reality, what more do you want..
So true😂😂😂😂🎑!!
The real world is undefeated , these clout chasers will understand the hard way.
Love this
Facts.🤣
I am from The Bahamas and frequent #Exuma for our company #Tours #ExperientialEducation and also St. Theresa Catholic School summer camp so let me just say in my honest opinion some of the BLAME should fall on the Bahamian Government Officials who approved this event. They did not investigate the nature of the event because firstly Exuma is known for best Regatta whereby natives and visitors flock to the island for this major event, as a result accommodations were booked well in advance. Fyre was scheduled during this same time which took away from the regatta experience and sadly many people lost income. Secondly the flight information should have been the first indication of the amount of persons arriving on the island which was a red flag considering local flights were already booked. So I was furious to hear that this happened and destroyed the economy of such a beautiful island. WARNING, if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is not. Bahamas Government, please stop being gullible and investigate before you approve under any circumstance
Antonette Nesbitt it was all about the money. If they get paid enough, they don’t pay attention. You’re so right, they should be more discerning.
I read this in your accent lol
I've spent a little time in the Exuma chain (Wardrick Wells Cay, Staniel Cay) and feel lucky to have gotten to be in such a true paradise. How did the Fyre organizers not realize that the Regatta was on at that time ??! *Massive* scheduling glitch. Not that it would have saved the "festival". Sad to hear that the dumpster Fyre detracted in any way from the Bahamian economy & beautiful Exuma.
That as well. I'm crushed I travel the islands I'm from Haiti I don't like what was done to those folks. They have to eat and pay bills and they just used them spit them out.
@@willpowr416 Holy shit..me too...I didn't even notice until you you mention you did too! LMAO 🤣
this fraud guy should date the Theranos lady - perfect match lol
i saw a good piece about this last year on the Internet Historian's CZcams channel. the organizers started out with good intentions, but were quickly in over their heads and they were too embarrassed to call it off even when they realized it wasn't gonna happen
I didn’t even know about the festival until Netflix
I can't afford Netflix, let alone fyre.
i saw it on twitter while it was happening. but i never saw the ads promoting it
“The actual experience exceeds all expectations...” at least they got that part right 🙄
Just on negative expectation. should just start small and go bigger.
Lol they were literally acting like savages within a day! Lord of flies in real life
hahahahahaha yes so funny yes it certainly did hahaha
After watching the documentary on Netflix and additionally this video it is clear that this is an issue of not having Completed Staff Work. One word to describe Completed Staff work is anticipation. Staffers must anticipate what the boss needs to be completed in order to take work off of his or her plate. In the case of Fyre Festival, there was no ability to anticipate anything. When staffers cannot anticipate what their boss needs to be done, there is no way to manage up. In this case, there is no managing down either. Because of the lack of leadership, planning, organization, and control that Billy McFarland had, there was no management. This shows that McFarland was not a manager for this event. He had no organization or real planning for an event of this scale which resulted in staffers not being able to anticipate what needed to be done. There was no leadership because McFarland would not tell the entire truth at times. The one word that describes Fyre Festival is deceit. McFarland’s lack of managerial abilities caused this extreme failure of an event. Not to mention he risked the lives of hundreds of people and completely lied to them.
This looks awesome! Where can I buy VIP packages for the next Fyre Festival?
hip hop mogul Ja Rule lmfao
get the strap 😂😂😂
C Us Rise Right!
50cent goin love this
😂😂😂😂
Lord Jesus!!!!!!!!!😂😂😂😂😂 He is an "artist" that's it!!!!!
Definitely liked the Netflix version better
Cool story....
The part that gets me is ,before the festival people who was going /or had paid was calling ,texting and emailing them for info on certain things and was not getting any responses or informative answers, days / weeks before the event and they still went.
That it self would have made me pause and say hey something not right and cancel or not go.
4:18 This guy treating it like he was in Vietnam.
Ja Rule walking around with heavier pockets. Should be in jail.
Right, either he got majorly played by a 25 year old (which is dumb on his part), or he gained from this. I think he both gained and got played like an idiot, now he's pretending to be a victim. Either way, Ja is a loser.
He stole from the rich. A better consequence would be to sue the fuck outta him and leave him with nothing which is happening at the present time.
50 cent wouldn't have done such a thing.
@@evanmarshallryanfemali7725 not a fan of ja rule but all he did was just put his name on it he didn't sign shit he was just all talk - IT WAS BILLY FROM JUMP
Ja was complaining about this back when it happened but it didn't get much coverage
Doesn't take a genius to see a scapegoat
That commercial the "organizers" made before the event was a LOT of hype!! Did they ticket buyers actually think they were going to mingle and party with famous models? LOL!!
Clyde Kimsey shit if I spend a couple thousand dollars I better party with some fuckin models lol
Lol 😂. Millennials believe anything
Umm... yeah, I'm pretty certain that was supposed to be the premise of the festival. Of course I have some ocean front property in Arkansas I'm trying to sell to those same morons that bought into that idea
yes. yes they did. Can you imagine the insanity if one actually showed up? Probably would have to send in the Navy Seals to rescue her.
@@jeff_from_jax I'm pretty sure they were gonna show up, I remember the Netflix doc talking about how they had been promised spots or something. Though obviously they wouldn't be there to talk to people there
What a reliable news source.
When is Fyre festival 2019?
I saw both documentaries last night. The moral of the story is how the rich behave. How they're so easily influenced and bought and sold. It's hilarious to see the elites eat each other. Also don't confuse rich millennial's with poor millennial's. Poor millennial's have more important priorities like working and fighting for a new government. Most don't have the money to blow at music festivals nor the time.
Lol
you sound like a poor millennial...
No one believes you work... or any dirtbag millennial for that matter.
Yeah fk em. They got fked over for once
This is the exact same thing i gathered...because i had no idea that fyre media even existed
It should have been obvious it was a scam when Blink 182 was advertised as a Top Artist.
Never heard of them to be perfectly honest.
Never even heard any of the artists all sound like fucking rejects
@@cyberlof4135 all the small things
Ja Rule is a hip hop mogul? He can’t sell a small town theatre out anymore, what am I missing? Lmfao 😂
The fyre festival tanked like ja rule's career. 😅😅😅😅
Am i really supposed to feel bad for a bunch of elites that paid 4k a ticket to see blink 182?? Smh, LMFAO
Edit: 10 months later 1.1k...no shit
i think it’s hilarious. made my day!
No, but you should probably feel something for those innocent Bahamians who were left high & dry by this con artist.
@@MsNooneinparticular why? Stupid is as stupid does. How much does it cost to build a cheese sandwich and pitch a tent? 100k my fucking ass. The vendors thought they were going to ass rape the elite idiots and in the end they got screwed. Dont feel bad for them either
WELL SAID
@@kaisersosay4238 maybe you should watch the documentaries. No one thought they would take advantage of McFarland, he acted like he had unlimited money

Facts sis! Freaking sicko!
A comp ticket to Fyre Festival 2018 ??
BiHH-
I remember being surprised in 2017 that Jah Rule was still in the music business
What’s funny is there’s so many ppl like him falsifying numbers getting investments for stupid things nobody hears about...
Fyre 2018 in the prison yard is a funny thought..
Billy and Ja rule u guys are fyred!
LOL
Good one...
"eating soggy cheese sandwiches"..the horror! 😱
The Fyre Festival of 2017 is a prominent example of a failure to apply Completed Staff Work Principles. In Completed Staff Work, the staff of the organization anticipates the needs of the boss and consistently provides completed work. The failure of the festival to organize places for guests to stay, accurately report their records, and follow through on their claims is a clear violation of the principles set forth by CSW.
How are the "influencers" not held accountable?
Duane Dulane I honestly think that it’s the influencers fault. When the models went to the island they had a great experience they had the fun in the sun with unlimited drinks. The influencers got paid to promote the event and they did their job. I think billy should’ve gotten more time and ja rule definitely should’ve gotten time too “it’s not fraud it’s false advertisement” my ass 😒
They got paid to promote, it’s not there event
They were models who were hired to promote their event, they are not responsible for the event itself
I think the term “model” says it all. If you are influenced by these people you need to take a long hard look at yourself. These are adults, not kids.
The Influencers failed by not disclosing it was paid advertising but they are t at fault for a companies miss steps. It falls on billy he was lying the whole time.
Who else was watching this with no socks on?
Ha me
Lol
Why is that such a weird thing to say, yet so true?
😭😭guilty
I have on one sock.
Hulu paid basically the main character for his appearance, yet the Netflix version is better 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don't feel bad for ANYONE who paid money to go to that "festival". They're all a bunch of fools.
Buccaneer_9 oh yeah like you knew it would turn out to be a scam. Nigga you only say that because you couldn’t afford to go
Clutch Master I mean you could get the same experience by going on Spotify playing a song clocking a grilled cheese and get the same effect it’s not that hard
I just bought my Villa for 2019 Fyre Festival 💯
Where I need 1
Would you also like to secure the titanic now for exclusive photo opps with jack in the water only 50grand extra 💁
For 20 Gs I can give you the opportunity to sleep with Marilyn monroe or tickets to see jimi Hendrix live in front of the twin towers
They just sold out! I'm glad I got the villa Early Bird -ticket to Fyre Festival 2020, it cost only $400k!!
I don't feel bad for the attendees they got scammed but acted like animals almost immediately
princessc1986 "acted like animals almost immediately" lmaoo
You would too if you and your family were dropped in the middle of an island with no where to stay, or no food to eat! lol
Survival mode, trying to have a good time & then it ended up being that.. Ja should be ashamed of himself, but he's a has been anyways...
I couldn't agree with you more!!
The defecated on the pristine beaches like some tribe from Papua New Guinea
Goes to show though, there is a market for it, it sold out! If only it was done properly
Thing is, in order to do it properly would cost a metric ton of funds. The price for the ticket would be only in the range of the ultra-wealthy, and in that case it would be less likely they’d sell out.
I wonder what happened to the dude talking at the beginning of the Fyre Festival advertisement?
I like it how in the documentary Ja Rule acts all cool, makes the models do whatever he wants and then talk shit to mostly everyone but when Fyre Fest doesn’t happen he stays all quiet doesn’t wana be seen 😂 boi we don’t need him he’s a forgotten rapper
oh he wasn’t all quiet on that conference call towards the end!
Bill Thompson oh ok let’s find a ridiculous way to bring race into it. seriously go cry that shit somewhere else smh
😂😂😂
This he got off clean.
@Bill Thompson GTFO!
those are not victims, they are just a bunch of rich kids that doesn't understand how social media works.
I think everyone agrees we don't care about the rich kids but the workers who got screwed out of money
You mean the sheeple 😏
Most people paid 500-1500...
Its not only rich kids you fickle
I have watched this unfold since they announced it a few years ago. At first this sounded like an amazing trip and opportunity, and almost like the even more exclusive version of Coachella. This was not showing completed staff work for a list of reasons, but the main reasons are because the whole trip was a hoax and completely unethical from the start. Each executive person involved knew what he or she was doing wrong, yet they all kept quiet and continued to run with the idea. Consumers were promised an exclusive trip with private villas and in-villa service. When they arrived they were given the complete opposite experience that they signed up for. Lastly, the leader of the group did not even take responsibility for what he did.
Someone help me decide which documentary to watch!
JA RULE IS NOT A MOGUEL 😂😂😂
Truest comment i love it 😂😂😂😂

Yeah I wanted to point that out. He's little black hobbit.

You sound jealous
You make fun of them, and they just go cry in our Mercedes and wipe our tears with cash. They are still rich, and you’re still jealous.
Not all were rich ya know
Ja Rule on Twitter: I also have my truth don’t base it off those documentaries?

Wasn’t Migos on their as well? They were pretty new back then (being popular) and maybe it was kinda worth it? Idk. I just don’t see why anyone would pay money for that.
Breanne Dixon and lil yachty too i believe 😂 what a shit lineup it was
42nut1 Bahahaha! Still laughing at this “Rap Mogul” comment.
42nut1 Exactly. Especially because they could go to the artists concert and just take a trip to the Bahamas separately and probably cheaper. Rich people are weird
“Fyre festival 2018” 😂😂
They misspelled fire and people just thought it was trendy or something.
Its just comical he thought he would get a chance at a year 2😂
This feels like my upcoming wedding in September.. haven't booked my DJ yet 😒
Just finished watching the Netflix of this. Quite interesting to say the least.
Now the rich pampered kids got to see what 98% of the rest of the world lives like and deals with...While its wrong that they got scammed when it comes to their money maybe next time people won't be so quick to hop on something just because a few celebrities have endorsed it.
another scam perpetrated by the music and modeling industry, SO SHOCKED ..
I watched both the docus.. Netflix's one was the usual interview style documentary while Hulu s was slightly more engaging I felt.
Did you go
Moral lesson of the story: think a hundred times before letting yourself be influenced by these social media influencers.
i refuse to watch the hulu one, since they paid billy for his interview
They paid to make him look bad and call him out. It's better than the documentary created by FuckJerry which was responsible for advertising Fyre Festival and they were in on it.
Netflix was originally going to pay him too until Billy pulled a Billy and asked for more money
Especially for an interview full of " I cant comment on the legal proceedings " looks like he is still running the con ,Dude has a problem seriously.

Its so much better though, less about the actual festival and more about the crime fraud aspect of it
It’s ja rule. Everything ja rule touches, fails.
what about the hit movie "Half past dead" with Ja Rule and Steven Seagal haha
These entitled rich kids still won’t learn their lesson, haha. But hey, it’s mommy and daddy’s money. 🤷🏻♂️😂
Tickets went for $500. Wouldn't call that rich tbh xD
@@r0xdab0x96xo some had to but plane tickets to get to the festival...
Think about...
@@marshmellowcream6364 yeah but food and other expenses were also paid. That's a steal. Too bad it was for...this.
I liked the Netflix documentary better than the Hulu one because it really showcased the car wreck in slow motion thing. The Hulu doc was good as a supplement and I liked that they interviewed Billy.
Just watched the Hulu doc, Billy is a sociopath. No remorse, no emotion (unless positive regarding his previous endeavors), deflects or looks blankly when asked the more difficult questions. Essentially, a less intelligent, dense Jordan Belfort...
I am pretty sure to some extent he believes his own BS
“This is the ultimate example of following social media influencers down a dark path”
Anybody whos seen both documentaries, which one is better, hulu or netflix?
Which doc is better?
