The singer and several members of his entourage have been accused of attacking four men backstage following a Texas stop on Brown’s ’11:11′ Tour

Chris Brown, along with several of his entourage and his 11:11 tour promoter Live Nation, is being sued for $50 million for the alleged “brutal, violent assault” of four concertgoers.

According to the filing from Sunday, July 21, the incident reportedly took place following the R&B singer’s concert on Friday night at Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas.

The lawsuit, obtained by PEOPLE, claims that Brown and Conway, Hood Boss (a.k.a. Omololu Omari Akinlolu) and Sinko Ceej “brutally and severely beat” four men — Larry Parker, Joseph Lewis, Charles Bush and Damarcus Powell — in what was allegedly an unprovoked attack backstage at the show.

The complaint also claims that Live Nation continued their relationship with Brown despite his history of “bad conduct and violent conduct” and “shamelessly profits and promotes Brown’s The 11:11 Tour and brought Brown to Texas for financial gain.”

“This is Texas. The people here don’t care how important or famous you think you are, you have an obligation to follow the laws and conduct yourself in an appropriate way. Unprovoked violence can’t and won’t be tolerated. We intend to seek all damages that the law allows against Brown and his cohorts, to include punitive damages,” said Tony Buzbee, attorney for the plaintiffs, in a statement.

Reps for Brown, Live Nation, Conway, Akinlolu and Ceej did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s requests for comment.

“The violence included Brown and his entourage surrounding the Plaintiffs, throwing chairs at them, and repeatedly kicking, stomping, and beating them,” the complaint states. “The unprovoked violence included multiple strikes to the Plaintiffs’ heads and chests, and ultimately involved stomping them while they were down. The brutal, violent assault participated in and directed by Brown, severely injured all Plaintiffs.”

According to the lawsuit, the four men were invited into the VIP area of Brown’s concert where they were allegedly waiting for the “Look at Me” artist for 30 minutes. As they had grown “tired” of waiting, Bush says he made his way to the exit where he congratulated Brown on his set. That’s when one of Brown’s crew allegedly yelled, “Man, you don’t remember you two were beefing?” The lawsuit claims that Brown then replied, “Oh yeah, we were…I don’t forget s—” before telling his alleged accomplices to “f—” Bush up.
