Rich the Kid might have gone broke as he has been slapped with a $41K lawsuit for not paying his rent for four months. Okay, let’s blame it on the economic impact of the coronavirus on businesses.
The economic impact of the coronavirus can be felt all across the social spectrum. Ever since the pandemic shutdowns began to peak back in February of 2020, America has experienced a record number of foreclosures and evictions.
Now, it appears that the phenomenon may have affected Rich the Kid, as the New York native has reportedly not paid rent on his Manhattan home since August. So, in an effort to recoup the $41K that the “Plug Walk” rapper owes, his landlord is suing him for back pay that dates all the way back to the summer.
The 29-year-old also owes approximately $300,000 in back pay to a separate landlord in the Los Angeles area.
Damn, they are calling him a broke boy.
Rich the Kid was married to Antonette Willis and has two children with her. In March 2018, Willis filed for divorce, seeking full physical custody while giving Rich The Kid visitation rights and joint legal custody. Willis is also seeking spousal support. This was shortly after Willis accused him of cheating on her with Blac Chyna and India Love, even alleging that he was in a relationship with the former. Willis later claimed that Rich the Kid abused her and forced her to have abortions regularly, saying it was commonplace for police to be called to their residence for domestic abuse.
Rich the Kid began dating Tori Hughes (professionally known as Tori Brixx) shortly following the filing of the divorce. On June 15, 2018, Rich the Kid was hospitalized following a home invasion at Hughes’ home. According to a police report, several men entered Hughes’ home carrying firearms and demanded money. When Rich The Kid attempted to confront them, he was beaten and the men left with a “significant” amount of money and jewelry. On December 29, 2018, Rich the Kid got into a UTV accident in Calabasas, CA, when Dimitri and his friend were driving around in a Polaris RZR 4-wheeler. Based on sources from TMZ, it seems that Dimitri lost control of it and fell off of his RZR 4-wheeler and severely injured his hand. He was taken to the hospital shortly after. In February 2019, he was robbed and shot at outside of the Westlake Recording Studio in West Hollywood, California.
