Afroman has reportedly settled a lawsuit with a woman he punched at a concert, according to AP. The suit was filed against the singer, whose real name is Joseph Edgar Foreman, back in 2015 by a woman named Haley Byrd.

The incident occurred after Byrd snuck onstage during a performance at a Biloxi nightclub. Foreman pleaded guilty to assault charges for the incident.

Byrd later filed a suit against Foreman for damages for injuries and claimed that Forman dissed her by making a record that highlighted the assault. The song is called “Stay off the Stage.”
