In the summer of 2021, John Doe filed a lawsuit against Afrika Bambaataa, alleging sexual abuse and sex trafficking that began when Doe was just 12 years old. The lawsuit, which extends claims made by other alleged victims, resulted in a default judgment against Bambaataa after he failed to respond legally. As Bambaataa, also known as Lance Taylor, did not contest the claims, the court will now determine the damages owed to Doe. The accusations against Bambaataa highlight ongoing discussions regarding accountability in the music industry regarding sexual abuse.
John Doe has successfully sued Afrika Bambaataa for sexual abuse, with a default judgment granted against the hip-hop pioneer due to his lack of response.
The allegations against Afrika Bambaataa join a troubling series of accusations that suggest a pattern of abuse spanning decades, beginning when Doe was just a child.
