Lawyer for Fat Joe’s Ex-Hypeman Arrested After Allegedly Hitting Rapper’s Process Server With Car

  • Attorney Tyrone Blackburn, who represents Fat Joe’s former hype man Terrance ‘T.A.’ Dixon, was arrested on June 25, 2025, in Brooklyn on charges of second-degree assault involving an incident where he struck a process server with his vehicle.
  • This arrest comes amid an ongoing legal dispute that began in March 2025, when Blackburn and Dixon delivered a demand seeking $3 million based on claims that Dixon was a ghostwriter and vocalist for Fat Joe, followed by allegations of sexual misconduct involving minors.
  • Dixon filed a $20 million lawsuit alleging coercive labor exploitation, sexual manipulation, and witnessing Fat Joe engage in sexual acts with minors aged 15 and 16, allegations that Fat Joe denies and calls lies.
  • Fat Joe's lawyer Joe Tacopina stated Blackburn's arrest 'comes as no surprise' and called it part of Blackburn's 'malicious and manipulative pattern of misconduct,' while Fat Joe vowed to 'finish' Blackburn in court.
  • The arrest intensifies ongoing litigation, with Fat Joe's team describing Blackburn and Dixon's actions as a coordinated extortion scheme, and judges have criticized Blackburn's tactics as attempts to gain media attention.
