5 Things You Need to Know About The-Dream: The Producer Accused of Rape

The-Dream, a well-known songwriter and producer, is facing serious allegations of rape, sexual battery, and sex trafficking in a new lawsuit filed by Chanaaz Mangroe. The 33-year-old woman claims that The-Dream, whose real name is Terius Adamu Ya Gesteelde-Diamant, used his connections to manipulate her. The lawsuit alleges that The-Dream pressured Chanaaz to drink alcohol, smoke marijuana, and engage in sexual activities with him, claiming it was necessary for her career.

Chanaaz’s lawyers, Douglas H. Wigdor and Meredith Fireto, compared the allegations against The-Dream to recent legal issues involving Sean “Diddy” Combs, stating that powerful men in the music industry often abuse their influence.
