Summer isn't even here yet and things are getting hot in the Bronx…
If we’ve learned anything about the now classic Kendrick Lamar and Drake rap battle, it’s that claims of pedophilia can still ruin careers and reputations in this day and age, so when Fat Joe was accused of liking them young himself, he wasted no time filing a lawsuit to shut down any kind of pedo talk.
According to TMZ, the Don Cartegena just sued his former hypeman, Terrance “T.A.” Dixon, after Dixon took to social media and claimed that Fat Joe flew a 16-year-old across state lines in order to sleep with her. Immediately filing a lawsuit against Dixon, Joey Crack is claiming that Dixon’s allegation is a result of Dixon not getting paid some money he “didn’t earn” and has resorted to slander in order to even the score.
Per TMZ:
Joe’s legal counsel claims the allegations were made as part of a money grab generated by Dixon’s attorney, Tyrone Blackburn, who’s also representing Diddy accuser Lil Rodney in a separate case.
The lawsuit details how Joe and Dixon began working together in 2006, when Joe offered him a “once-in-a-lifetime” opportunity to be part of his team … complete with compensation, luxurious travel, touring and other fringe benefits that accompany being in a superstar rapper’s inner circle.
Joe says the partnership ended amicably in 2019 and says he never heard any money complaints for 6 years, until Dixon began posting on social media with complaints he should have been paid more for his past work.
Fat Joe claims that back in March, Dixon hired Blackburn to represent him and sent him a letter demanding “compensation” as a ghostwriter for some of Fat Joe’s songs. After Fat Joe declined his demands he says that Dixon resorted to slander and is now taking him to court for his transgression.
Whether any of these allegations are true or not, best believe it’ll be something that will follow Fat Joe going forward as people tend to believe whatever they want when they don’t particularly like somebody. That’s one of the many negatives about social media in 2025.
Tyrone Blackburn, for his part, is confident in the lawsuit and warns of more claims to come.
Blackburn tells TMZ Hip Hop the new lawsuit is just a cover-up attempt and isn’t backing down … saying Joe filed “a baseless lawsuit in an effort to soften the blow of what’s to come. It won’t work. Fat Joe has a lot of explaining to do.”
Meanwhile Fat Joe is of course pushing back against the allegations and seems ready to fight this to the bitter end.
Fat Joe fiercely defends his name, telling us … “These allegations are completely false and part of a criminal conspiracy orchestrated between a disgruntled former hype man and his attorney. These two individuals have been scheming together to extort me with their elaborate and ludicrous demands changing by the day.”
Guess we’ll have to wait and see how this one ends up panning out.
