The lawsuit, filed in California federal court on Tuesday, alleges that Gestilde Diamant falsely promised to sponsor Ms. Mangroe’s career advancement and international visa extension, but then committed “violent sexual acts” against her.
The lawsuit alleges that the songwriter secluded Munglo in a hotel room, controlled her whereabouts and forced her to “check in” multiple times a day.
The complaint also alleges that Gestilde Diamant “locked Ms. Mangroe in a dark room adjacent to a recording studio and engaged in violent sexual intercourse with her, leaving her naked in the dark for hours, before returning to have sex with her again and demanding that she tell him she loved her.”
The complaint also describes another incident in which Gesteelde Diamant allegedly choked Mangroe after she refused, and “as she began to lose consciousness she continued to yell that Dream was taking advantage of him.”
The lawsuit also alleges several incidents of rape and further alleges that the songwriter was involved in sex trafficking. Mangroe claims that Gestilde Diamant forced her to participate in sexual acts with multiple men in multiple states.
In one alleged instance, Gestielde Diamant instructed Mangroe to “perform oral sex” on him in front of another man at a movie theater, according to the lawsuit.
The suit further accuses Gesthirde Diamant’s labels, Contra Paris and Epic Records, of profiting off his work by ingratiating themselves with him, “despite the fact that he had no intention of truly supporting her career trajectory, but rather wanted corporate funding to support his human trafficking enterprise.”
The suit also alleges that Munglo received a $35,000 advance, but that Gestilde Diamant, who was paid $150,000, refused to turn over her songs after her relationship with Gestilde Diamant deteriorated, resulting in Epic Records becoming unwilling to distribute her songs because the songwriter had not turned over her content to the label.
“These allegations are untrue and defamatory,” Gestilde Diamant said in a statement. The New York Times“I am against all forms of harassment and have always worked hard to help people achieve their career goals.”
