That's when we found out there was apparently not enough water there for everyone. You'd see people walking around with full cases of water that they stole from the dining area. I didn't personally have anything stolen personally.
Spoken like a Bret Easton Ellis character who'd just nonchalantly murdered somebody.

I get the impression it was sold more as an opportunity for an insane amount of Instagramming and selfies, with the music almost being an afterthought. I'd feel bad for anyone who went if they hadn't been stupid enough to pay $4k for a ticket to a festival promoted by Ja Rule.

the stories going around about his partner in this, who's like a 20something tech/socialite bro or something like that, make this even better

In typical Ja Rule fashion he's playing this all wrong. He should be owning this. This is literally the pinnacle of his career/life. With all this hype and publicity I'd be charging double next year.

For one of these rich kids to be able to tell the story about how they almost died on a ja rule deserted island has to infinitely more rewarding than an actual ja rule concert imo

The guy behind the disastrous Fyre Festival concert is most likely headed to prison ... TMZ has learned.
Billy McFarland, who organized the 2017 festival in the Bahamas, agreed to plead guilty to 2 counts of wire fraud, connected to funds he got from investors in the concert. Prosecutors said he raised more than $1 million.
Nicholas Biase, spokesman for the US Attorney Southern District of NY, tells us each count carries a max sentence of 20 years. McFarland's sentencing hearing is set for June.
