The rapper is getting his royalties garnished over baby mama drama. Blueface, real name Johnathan Porter, is having his music royalties seized to pay a defamation judgment won by Jackilyn Martinez. She sued him after he claimed her son, fathered by rapper Soulja Boy, was his child. A Los Angeles judge, Peter Hernandez, approved the order targeting payments from rights groups ASCAP and BMI.
Martinez got a default judgment against him because Blueface did not respond to the lawsuit. The original award was over a hundred thousand dollars, but has grown with interest. Her lawyers are enforcing the judgment with writs of execution filed in Los Angeles and Sacramento counties. This forces the organizations to send their royalty money directly to Martinez until the debt is settled.
The rapper's recent jail time did not stop the legal process. The order means any money earned from his song plays will go to paying down what he owes. The case started from social media comments Blueface made during an online feud.
