Fat Joe’s former hypeman Terrance “T.A.” Dixon filed a bombshell lawsuit against him with many allegations, including forcing him to perform over 4,000 sexual acts and assaulting minors.
Now, Fat Joe has come out firing back at Dixon who sued him for “coercive labor exploitation, financial fraud, sexual manipulation, violent intimidation, and psychological coercion” as part of a $20 million lawsuit.
In a lengthy statement on social media, Joe wrote: “I’ve been tested the last few months — I’ve lost my big brother, my father, my mother and now i’m fighting against these disgusting lies. But please know I will not break and I will NEVER back down.”
“I’ve had individuals in my circle take my love and kindness for weakness, but how many times must we forgive them?” he added. “I’ve had people steal from me, grow jealous of me, lie on me. Through it all, me and my family are the ones stuck dealing with the consequences of their bad decisions.”
Joe then proceeded to address his fall out with Dixon in 2019.
“If you get fired for doing something wrong, just take the L and live with it. But instead, they plot on your downfall as they watch you move on with your life. They decide to go after one of the things you value the most — your reputation. They figure they can make up the most insane stories and, if they threaten you with a lawsuit, then you’ll pay and they’ll feel like they finally won.”
Fat Joe concluded by saying, “Problem with your theory, I’ve never let anyone on the streets extort me, so how would I ever let a crooked attorney and a coward ex-hype man extort me? I’m from the Bronx!”
Dixon is represented by Tyrone Blackburn, who’s the lead counsel in a Diddy case, and Fat Joe is represented by Joe Tacopina, who’s defended A$AP Rocky, Donald Trump, Michael Jackson, and more.
Dixon is seeking $20 million in damages.
