Jayceon Taylor, better known as Compton-born rap star, The Game, is the hitmaker behind several hip-hop classics. One Blood, Hate It Or Love It, and Ali Bomaye are just a few of the gems in his extensive discography. But as of late, Taylor has been in the headlines for all the wrong reasons.
The Game was found guilty of assault in 2019. Now, a judge has ordered the rap star to pay $7.1 million in damages. However, the rapper still has not made things square with the plaintiff.
Game Forced to Sell His Home to Cover Assault Judgement
Per a report from HipHopDX, the artist is being forced to sell his home in cozy Calabasas, California. In order to cover the debt.
The report also adds that Game tried to evade selling the home. By enforcing the fact that his home is owned by his company JTT Holdings.
Unfortunately for him, the court ruled that it can still be sold. Noting that “JTT Holdings was a shell company and that it can be forcibly sold.”
The charges against Taylor are related to an incident that occurred in 2015. During the filming of his VH1 reality show For The Love of The Game. One of the show’s contestants, Priscilla Rainey claimed that the rap star assaulted her. In an off-camera incident at a Chicago sports bar. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Rainey says that the rap star “repeatedly lifted her skirt and groped her,” while others sat by idly.
Even following the judgment, Game has maintained his innocence and vowed that he would never pay the judgment to Rainey.
“Don’t be fooled by these accusations or the dollar amount in the headlines. Because I put that on my favorite auntie’s poodle this broad ain’t getting s**t! Every girl on that show will tell u I never touched this chick or ever desired to be anywhere near her,” he said on his Instagram account in 2016 via XXL.
“She got kicked off the show & as a result she filed this lame lawsuit which was probably her intentions before the show was ever even started.
