The Game could lose his name, his label and his music catalog due to a massive court ruling in favor of a sexual abuse victim. |
Jayceon Taylor known as The Game is a Compton based rapper who debuted in 2005 with the hit album The Documentary. For a brief time, he signed a record deal with Dr. Dre and 50 Cent.
He was then the fifth member of G-Unit. He was booted out the group shortly after The Documentary was released. That triggered feud that lasted over a decade. The Game had settled his feud with 50 Cent (although I don't believe they're friends).
The Game has released numerous albums under Geffen/Interscope and later EOne Entertainment.
During his downtime he was doing reality television. It seems like he was acting in a matter unsettling towards women and one woman accused him of sexual assault.
Well it seems like he might lose his royalties and his record label in the wake of this.
The 40-year old rapper must pay the accuser $7 million in damages. The rapper will loose his rap label and possibly his trademark naming. The rapper launched Black Wall Street Records which later went to Blood Money Entertainment and now LA Prolific Records.
According to the judgement, The Game must relinquish "any and all rights, title, and interest of defendant in any money, property, or payments due to defendant from LA Prolific, in the form of among other things, commission, royalties, contract receivables, deferred compensation, income, wages, payroll, salary, and accounts receivable. Failure by defendant to comply with this order may subject him to contempt of court proceedings."
"It's further ordered that all third parties who receive notice of this order are directed to pay any and all money or property due, or to become due, under this order to plaintiff either: (1) by check payable to "Priscilla Rainev," and delivered to plaintiff's counsel... until and to the extent necessary to pay the judgement in full."
The accuser, Priscilla Rainey sued the rapper for an alleged sexual assault that happened when she appeared on She's Got Game, a VH1 reality show that starred The Game. The plaintiff claims that she went on a date with the rapper, believing it would be on camera; however, when she met the rapper in Chicago restaurant, there was no production crew.
The Game showed up to the restaurant "highly intoxicated on alcohol and drugs (which is typical), and sexually assaulted the plaintiff on several occasions that night. This included him forcefully reaching his hand inside her dress to rub her vagina and buttocks.
Rainey was ultimately awarded $7,130,100 after the rapper failed to show up in court. The rapper has not paid a single dime in years since the judgement. She would go on to file a motion to seize the rapper's income, assets and properties.
Priscilla Rainey could own The Game's entire catalog of music after a court ruling. |
That right there could have him in contempt of court. He will likely be forced to give up his albums and his namesake.
He said that the accuser is a liar and a bitch. He vows to not pay the accuser.
"It's a lying bitch making up a story. That shit is fucking crazy 'cause I had a fucking dentist appointment, I missed court, and a judge would give a bitch a judgement for [over] $7 million..., I ain't giving that bitch nothing. It'd be different if I was one of those weird ass niggas touching pussies in the club, but I was nowhere near this bitch," The Game said.
Now if she was to file a police report in Illinois and California, he will face criminal charges.
The Game claims he's broke and ain't making the hits like he used to.
His lawyers failed to file an appeal to the judgement.
The rapper said that Born 2 Rap would be his last album. The album was released in 2019.
Listen to it here.
We should stop with the "Believe All Women" crap. We should give everyone the benefit of the doubt.
That includes: Brett Kavanaugh, Joe Biden, Donald J. Trump and others.
Bill Cosby and Harvey Weinstein are convicted criminals. They are spending time in the iron college.
Anthony Weiner was convicted. He is out and now forced to remain out of the limelight now that he's a member of Offender U. (TIER II).
R. Kelly is going to federal trial once things with COVID-19 die down.
Everyone is assumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Not in the court of public opinion.
No one is perfect. Not everyone lives a glass house. Not everyone eats from the same plate.
UNDERSTAND THIS.
RAPE IS RAPE.
RAPE IS NO JOKE.
RAPE IS NO ACHIEVEMENT.
RAPE IS A CRIME.
IT WILL PUT YOU IN THE IRON COLLEGE FOR LIFE. IT WILL RUIN YOUR REPUTATION IF YOU'RE FOUND GUILTY OF A SEXUAL ASSAULT.
