Fat Joe Lawsuit: Roc Nation Wants Out of Case, Says It Has ‘Nothing to Do With Any of This’

In the Fat Joe lawsuit, Roc Nation is asking the court to dismiss it as a defendant in the case brought by the rapper's longtime hypeman.

Roc Nation wants out of an explosive new lawsuit accusing Fat Joe of victimizing his longtime hypeman via a wide-ranging criminal enterprise, saying it’s “nonsensical” to suggest the rapper’s management company was involved in any of the scandalous behavior alleged in the case. Dixon, Fat Joe’s hypeman for over a decade, said he was forced to work without pay while being subjected to psychological manipulation and exposed to sexual misconduct, including the trafficking of underage girls. The claims in Dixon’s Thursday (June 19) complaint, which Fat Joe has fiercely denied and characterized as extortion, are framed as a racketeering enterprise abetted by Roc Nation and other outside entities.
