Los Angeles, December 29, 2023 — Rapper Blueface is responding to reports that his music royalties will be garnished to cover a $131,655 judgment stemming from a defamation lawsuit filed by the mother of Soulja Boy’s child. The financial obligation, initially $123,000, has grown with the addition of interest.
Royalties to Cover Defamation Judgment
The rapper publicly acknowledged the garnishment during a recent Twitch stream, offering a candid and provocative take on the situation.
- Jackilyn Martinez, the mother of Soulja Boy’s child, successfully sued Blueface for defamation.
- The initial judgment of $123,243.10 has increased to $131,655 due to accrued interest.
- Blueface reacted to the news during a Twitch stream, suggesting fans subscribe to help cover the costs.
- The lawsuit originated from Blueface’s claims about a sexual encounter with Martinez prior to her baby shower with Soulja Boy.
During a Twitch broadcast on Sunday, Blueface addressed the situation directly, stating, “Give me the subs, I gotta pay Soulja Boy’s child support. ’Cause he going broke. So his baby mama need some money. I’ma get baby some new shoes, ’cause Soulja aint got it, clearly. Let’s sub up so we can get her her little $100K. Whatever she want. The pu**y wasn’t that good, but f**k it. Soulja need it. She need it….$130K, we gon’ have that by next week. ’Cause Soulja ain’t got it.”
The legal battle began in December 2023 when Martinez filed a $10 million defamation suit against Blueface. The claim centered on statements Blueface made during an online dispute with Soulja Boy, where he alleged he had engaged in sexual activity with Martinez the day before her baby shower with the rapper.
Specifically, Blueface questioned, “What’s old about your BM sucking my d**k?” and further asserted, “Ni**a, I f**ked your baby mama the day before your baby shower.”
In April, Martinez was awarded a default judgment of $123,243.10 after Blueface did not respond to the lawsuit.
What is the amount Blueface owes Jackilyn Martinez? Blueface currently owes $131,655, which includes the original judgment of $123,243.10 plus accumulated interest.
The garnishment of Blueface’s royalties signifies the enforcement of the court’s decision and Martinez’s pursuit of the financial compensation awarded to her.
