SSGKobe has been accused of raping a woman during a studio session last month.
The alleged victim, an artist named Ka$hkenni, came forward with the allegations on Wednesday (December 28). She claimed the rising 19-year-old rapper (real name Tyreek Solomon Pelleri) forced her into having sex with him in a soundproof studio room on November 23.

Ka$hkenni detailed the alleged incident in a series of Instagram posts, while also sharing several screenshots of a text exchange with SSGKobe before and after the studio session. (Ka$hkenni’s Instagram account has since been taken down.)
She claimed the ordeal began when Kobe DM’d her asking how she was doing. When she replied saying she was “going through some things,” he invited her to the studio under the premise of recording music together and having “fun.”

When she arrived at the studio, “things were chill” and the two of them sat in a room with other people “vibing to the songs he just made,” she recalled. Kobe allegedly text her asking her to go into the recording booth with him, but when she didn’t reply, his mood seemingly changed.
“He gets up to go back into the recording room,” she wrote. “I feel someone staring at me. I look over and he’s standing in the doorway of the room we are in giving me this very demanding and intimidating look. I’m still under the impression that he just wants to talk so I go into the recording room with him.”
After sharing a seemingly innocent conversation and hug, Ka$hkenni claimed SSGKobe attempted to kiss her, leading to them making out. Moments later, he allegedly pulled her into a smaller room and turned off the lights.
“He proceeds to start trying to [take] advantage of me,” she wrote. “He asked me to give him head. I told him ‘no I don’t do that, I don’t wanna do that.’ And I try and move around him in order to leave the room and he steps in front of me to block the door.

“And proceeds to coerce me into doing things with him that I don’t want to do. He never asked for consent. And I was verbally telling him ‘No,’ ‘stop’ and ‘you’re hurting me.’ I was trying to push him off of me. But he ignore[d] all of that.”
She added: “I couldn’t yell for help the room was soundproof. I was scared. The first thing he said when it was over was ‘I’m sorry.'”

According to screenshots of their text conversation, Ka$hkenni later confronted SSGKobe about the incident, telling him she felt “pressured” to “do what we did” while accusing him of lying to her about why he wanted her to come to the studio.
Kobe apologized, writing: “I just wanna apologize first off since you said you feel like i forced you to do something that shit is not cool at all and that isnt someone i am as a person.
“I do feel like i could have been more communicative towards you but i was just tied up with so much shit going on in life rn. So I apologize to you i hope you see that it wasn’t coming from me as bad intentions.”
After more back-and-forth messages, SSGKobe allegedly texted Ka$hkenni on December 19 saying: “I’m not sure what you’re referring to in your messages” and “we had no issues during our time together,” before telling her he would only feel comfortable having a conversation with her with his manager and lawyer present.

“This man is a manipulator, liar and rapist,” Ka$hkenni wrote on Instagram. “He hurt me and god knows how many other females he has hurt as well. I am posting this because he needs to be held accountable for his actions. I’ve been keeping this to myself for weeks but it’s time to speak up about it.”
SSGKobe has yet to respond to the allegations.
