Metro Boomin has vowed to take legal action against a woman who accused him of sexual assault in 2016.
A woman named Vanessa LeMaistre claims the famed producer raped her after befriending her during a trip to Las Vegas, according to documents obtained by TMZ.
LeMester claims she was grieving the loss of her 9-month-old son and suffering from depression when she met Metro, whose real name is Leland Wayne. Lemeister said that after they hit it off in Vegas, Metro invited her to his studio in Los Angeles, where she witnessed him taking large amounts of codeine despite warnings from friends.
In the lawsuit, LeMaistre recalled an incident that occurred at Metro Studios in September 2016.
Lemaistre told the court she woke up in bed to find Metro Boomin raping her and performing oral sex on her.
She fell unconscious again, and when she woke up, Lemaistre claimed producers told her she was in a hotel room in Beverly Hills, though she couldn’t remember how she got there and that she had to leave .
Lemaistre said in the lawsuit that she discovered she was pregnant and that Metro Bumin was her father because he was her only sexual partner at the time. She told the court she terminated her pregnancy in November 2016.
LeMaistre also believes Metro Boomin mocked her alleged rape on 21 Savage’s “Rap Saved Me,” which also features Offset’s song.
She points to the lyrics: “She ate a Xanny / Then she passed out / I came from the gutter… Nothing changes.”
Metro Boomin Brands lawsuit ‘false accusations’
Metro Boomin denies the accusations, claims the lawsuit is an attempt to blackmail him and will countersue.
“This is pure extortion,” Metro’s attorney Lawrence Hinkle II told the outlet. “These are false accusations. Mr. Wayne refused to pay her months ago and is refusing to pay her now. Mr. Wayne will defend himself in court. If successful, he will pursue a malicious prosecution claim.
