NEW YORK CITY – In a shocking development, rapper Fat Joe has been accused of engaging in sexual acts with minors, as detailed in a $20 million lawsuit filed by his former hypeman, Terrance “T.A.” Dixon.
Breaking: Allegations Surface Against Fat Joe
Dixon, who worked with Fat Joe from 2006 to 2019, claims he witnessed the rapper engaging in sexual relations with children aged fifteen and sixteen, according to court documents obtained by Page Six. These allegations have been vehemently denied by Fat Joe.
Immediate Impact
The lawsuit alleges that Fat Joe, whose real name is Joseph Antonio Cartagena, was involved with a 16-year-old Dominican female. She reportedly performed sexual acts in exchange for cash, clothing, and the payment of her cell phone bill. The rapper, now 54, is also accused of having sexual relations with a 15-year-old Caucasian girl he allegedly met overseas.
Dixon’s lawsuit details claims of “coercive labor exploitation, financial fraud, sexual manipulation, violent intimidation, and psychological coercion.”
Key Details Emerge
According to the lawsuit, Fat Joe allegedly flew the Caucasian girl to New York City and Miami multiple times and paid for her to undergo a Brazilian Butt Lift. The documents also mention a Latina girl, whom Fat Joe allegedly met when she was 15, and with whom he reportedly had a romantic relationship.
Industry Response
Fat Joe’s attorney, Joe Tacopina, has strongly denied the allegations, describing them as a “money grab.” Tacopina claims that Dixon’s lawyer, Tyrone Blackburn, has a history of filing sensational cases to attract media attention. He further asserts that the women Dixon named have denied any wrongdoing on Fat Joe’s part, with some stating they do not even know him.
“They’ve made it clear that some of them don’t even know Fat Joe,” Tacopina claims, challenging the credibility of the accusations.
Background Context
