A woman who sued the now-deceased rapper Takeoff for rape in 2020 is requesting that Takeoff's mother takes the rapper's place as the defendant so that the trial can continue. According to XXL, "On Dec. 8, MyNewsLA reported the plaintiff who is suing Takeoff for an alleged 2020 rape has filed court documents requesting the case continue, despite the rapper's death last November. The woman is reportedly requesting Takeoff's mother, Titiana Davenport, step into the defendant role in the case, since she is the acting administrator of his estate. A judge will reportedly make a decision on the motion during the next hearing for the case on Feb. 22, 2024."
Before his death, the late Migo's rapper responded to the suit via his attorney, Drew Findling, stating, "We have reviewed the allegations and have similarly done our own due diligence," the statement read. "What has become abundantly clear is that the allegations made against Takeoff are patently and provably false. The claims and statements made regarding this lawsuit indicate that the plaintiff's representatives have not spoken with relevant witnesses or reviewed available evidence."
XXL reported that in August of 2020, "Jane Doe claims she was at a party attended by Takeoff when he began staring at her, making her uncomfortable. She claims the rapper later saw her with DJ Durel, which sparked an argument between the two men. She then alleges Takeoff came into a room she was in and raped her, despite her objection to his sexual advances."
