I wouldn’t want to be associated with someone who wouldn’t surprise me if I heard they raped someone.

I have attended some Low End Theories and am familiar with some of the producers, but aside from being around a longer time than others is this guy that popular?

He's integral to low end theory, not to mention he goes back a ways with fly lo per all accounts.

As previously mentioned he’s pretty big in the LA beat scene and many of y’all “who?” niggas would like his shit, lots of obscure international funk samples.

and yeah, gotta hear both sides...
but for dude up above to say he knows people who know him and they wouldn't be surprised by it? That's kinda fucked up if true. How do you give off a roofie rapey vibe?

Especially with LA being on blast right now.

but the latest info is pretty interesting.
My point all along is cutting ties with someone doesn’t mean they are guilty. Just means the company is trying to protect itself.

but in these two instances, their people stood behind them immediately and never wavered.
if your own people are backing away as quick as GLK's has...to be frank, I was in the Oberst camp in an auxiliary way at the time, and I just can't imagine stepping aside as quick as people have in GLK's, or Weinstein's, or any other's case where the first 48 are followed by severed ties.
if his people can't stand by him, I hate to say it, but there's SOMETHING wrong, whether it's rape or just plain predator behavior.
38. "The Gaslamp Killer sues for $5 million over rape allegations" In response to Reply # 0 Tue Nov-14-17 05:29 PM by Johnny
I'm interested to see how this all plays out. The boyfriend of the alleged victim removed the post about the assault from his instagram and supposedly the she did the same.
Producer has denied sexual assault, claiming that the encounter had been consensual
The Gaslamp Killer has filed a lawsuit following recent rape allegations made against him.
In October, the electronic musician – real name William Benjamin Bensussen – was accused of sexual assault by a Twitter user, who described an alleged incident that she says took place at a party at a Los Angeles hotel in July 2013. The individual claimed that Bensussen “drugged and raped” her and her best friend at the party.
Bensussen later denied the allegations, responding in a statement that he would “never drug a woman” and claiming that the sexual encounter had been consensual. “Please know that while I am shocked, I take this all very seriously,” he said of the accusations.
The producer is now reportedly suing the accuser, her friend and the accuser’s boyfriend – who is said to have shared the story online – for defamation, seeking at least $5 million (£3.8m) in damages. The lawsuit sees Bensussen describe the allegations as “malicious and fabricated” and allege that two witnesses can affirm his innocence.
Following the allegations, both the record label Brainfeeder and LA collective Low End Theory severed ties with The Gaslamp Killer.
Flying Lotus recently apologised after appearing to publicly support The Gaslamp Killer. He told the crowd at a live show: “The internet is a fucking liar. Ain’t nobody judge and jury but the fucking law… Let truth and justice have its day.” Flying Lotus later said that his comments had been “insensitive”.

When you (semi)rich and (semi)famous and can afford expensive/good lawyers to sue a regular schmegular person who can't afford a good lawyer, maybe can't take the time off of work to go to court and all that -- it's bullying.

That’s money lost...
and his name will forever be linked to a rape accusation.
Best believe if I didn’t don’t and I have the money I would sue for defamation.
It’s like some folks want everyone to lay down cause some folks ain’t shit.
