Legal issues
In 2019, Tasha K was sued by rapper Cardi B for defamation, with the lawsuit filed in the US District of Georgia. She was found liable by the jury and directed to pay $4 million in damages.[7] In 2023, Tasha K filed for bankruptcy.[13] Cardi B alleged that Tasha K kept offshore accounts,[14][15] and the judge ruled that Tasha K pay Cardi B damages regardless of the bankruptcy claim.[16][17] She later apologized to Cardi B.[18][19]
In November 2023, singer R. Kelly sued the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) and Tasha K, alleging that members of the BOP sold his digital prison records, including his phone calls to Tasha K, starting in 2019.[20] Kelly's lawyers alleged negligence, invasion of privacy, intentional infliction of emotional distress, civil theft, civil conspiracy, and violation of the computer fraud and Abuse Act.[21] The Department of Justice's investigation found that at least 60 officers accessed his records, with one officer allegedly providing them to Tasha K.[9] Kelly claims the leaks included recordings of his phone calls with his legal team and girlfriend, which left him isolated and fearful to communicate with his attorneys.[22]
In December 2023, Kevin Hart filed a lawsuit against Tasha K for defamation and extortion, relating to Tasha K's publication of an interview with Hart's former secretary.[23][24] In January 2024, the judge rejected Hart's request for a temporary restraining order to force Tasha K to take the interview down.[8]
In July 2024, Soulja Boy sued Tasha K and reality star William The Baddest for defamation, violation of privacy, amongst other allegations over homosexual allegations they spread about him.[25][26] Although Soulja Boy vehemently denied the allegations,[27][28] on Tasha K's podcast, William The Baddest claimed that he had a sexual encounter with Soulja Boy, describing explicit details.[29][30]
In August 2024, a judge dismissed a $360 million lawsuit brought by Bishop Lamor Whitehead, known as "Pastor Bling Bling", against Tasha K.[31] Whitehead sued her for defamation and invasion of privacy over claims she made on her podcast, Unwine With Tasha K, regarding his purchase of a $2 million mansion with just $10.[32] The court ruled that Tasha K's statements were not defamatory and that some were likely accurate.[33]
