Atlanta Rapper Yung Joc Sued For Being Alleged Deadbeat Daddy

The mother of Atlanta-based rapper Yung Joc's son said a child support payment would be music to her ears.

In an exclusive interview with WSB-TV, Fatimah Jester said the Grammy-nominated rapper, who resides in Riverdale, owes her $2,000 in back child support for his 7-year-old son Amoni.

EXCLUSIVE: Yung Joc Sued For Back Child Support

“I never thought he would be putting me through some of the stuff I'm going through now. I can't even get in contact with him for things for my baby … it's just hard," said Jester.

She said Yung Joc, whose real name is Jasiel Robinson, is one of the hottest and wealthiest entertainers on the rap scene, and is reportedly worth millions. The rapper also owns a luxury car rental business.

Jester said because the rapper has continuously missed his court-ordered child support payments, it has forced her to pay late fees on her own bills.

"The type of money he makes, $2,000 is nothing," said Jester.

The single parent said the situation has created a financial struggle, while the rapper is living large.

Lawyers said they’ve had difficulty finding the rapper to serve him with court papers for unpaid child support.

Jester said the rapper may love their son, but he has a poor way of showing it.

"Mr. Robinson has all kinds of cars, Bentleys, Mercedes Benz, Ranger Rovers, Two Range rovers,” said Jester.

WSB-TV tried to contact Yung Joc, but an answering machine at an office listed in court papers was full and we could not leave a message.

A judge is set to hear the case in court on Sept. 11.
