Rapper Clifford “T.I.” Harris and his wife, Xscape member Tameka “Tiny” Cottle-Harris, have been accused of sexual assault in a new lawsuit. 

On Tuesday, the complaint was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court. It alleges that the two drugged and raped the accuser in a hotel room in 2005. It also claims that this has happened to many other women.

According to Doe, who was in her early 20s at the time of the incident, she was in a club when Tiny offered her a drink. Shortly after, Doe joined the couple at a hotel with two other women. She then alleges that she was sexually assaulted by the couple before she ended up losing consciousness.

The two vehemently denied the allegations in a joint statement.

“This plaintiff has been threatening to file this lawsuit for THREE years,” they said. “For THREE years, we have emphatically and categorically denied these allegations. For THREE years we have maintained our innocence and refused to pay these extortionate demands for things we didn’t do. For THREE years, we’ve maintained the same position while the claims in this story have changed time and time again. Our position is clear… We are innocent of these fake claims, we will not be shaken down, and we look forward to our day in court.”

The accuser filed these claims under California’s Sexual Abuse and Cover-Up Accountability Act, which temporarily extends the statute of limitations for sexual abuse claims.

Notable people in the music industry who have had suits filed against them in recent days include Jermaine Jackson, Tommy Lee and Mike Greene.
