Fat Joe Denies Sex With Minors Allegations Raised in $20M Lawsuit

In simpler terms, Fat Joe is refuting the accusations made against him by his previous hype man, which are part of a large-scale civil case.

Following the submission of a complaint by Terrance “T.A” Dixon claiming that he observed Fat Joe, whose real name is Joseph Antonio Cartagena, engaging in grooming, isolating, and sexually exploiting minors while working for his company, a legal representative for Fat Joe countered by labeling the lawsuit as a clear act of retribution.

Attorney Joe Tacopina stated on June 20th to TopMob News that the accusations against Mr. Cartagena are entirely false – they’re made-up stories designed to harm his reputation and pressure him into a settlement via public opinion, but Mr. Cartagena will not be cowed by such tactics.

In a lawsuit filed with the court on June 19, Dixon claimed that during his 16-year tenure, Cartagena abused him both sexually and financially. He asserted that Cartagena required him to carry out over 4,000 sexual acts in order to maintain his position within the company. In the lawsuit, he stated that these alleged actions were intended to belittle and exert control under the pretense of loyalty tests.

As a fervent admirer, I’d rephrase it like this: “The intimacy wasn’t consensual; it was driven by dread, reliance, and deceit,” the lawsuit stated. “Every encounter implied an unspoken threat: resist, and you forfeit everything.

In a single claimed incident, the accusation stated that Dixon’s travels were unexpectedly terminated, leaving him stranded in a foreign land with no funds, following his decision to decline an explicit act.

Out of concern for potential financial penalties, career damage, and even physical harm, the complaint stated that Dixon frequently complied with Cartagena’s supposed demands, which encompassed tasks such as uncompensated work in songwriting, tour management, and security.

While working there, Dixon claimed to have observed Cartagena involved in intimate activities with minors aged 15 and 16.

The accusation in the lawsuit is that Defendant Cartagena intentionally denied travel arrangements, misused daily allowance funds, and took advantage of Plaintiff’s financial needs and work commitment to maintain compliance, secrecy, and control. The complaint further suggests that this manipulative system indicates that Defendant Cartagena’s Enterprise wasn’t just about art—it was a continuous criminal enterprise involving sex trafficking, fraudulent use of wire communications, theft of labor, and violent intimidation.

As a devoted follower, I’m pursuing potential compensation amounting to $20 million due to various grievances outlined in the legal action. These include unpaid performance wages, missed per diem expenses, misappropriated publishing income, unpaid royalties, and physical and emotional harm inflicted upon me.

Instead, Cartagena’s attorney informed TopMob News that Dixon’s lawsuit is essentially an attempt to divert focus, as it comes in response to a civil complaint filed by Dixon himself against Dixon and his lawyer Tyrone Blackburn in April, which alleged extortion and slander.

In his statement, Tacopina explained that we didn’t merely file a lawsuit against an unhappy ex-employee attempting to resurrect an unfounded claim from 15 years past; instead, we targeted the attorney who orchestrated it. Our legal action is aimed at unveiling this fraudulent scheme and bringing everyone implicated to justice.

TopMob News has reached out to Dixon’s attorney for comment but hasn’t heard back.
