Soulja Boy is dropping a lawsuit he filed against a blogger and a “Bad Boys” cast member in which the rapper alleged that both defendants defamed him when the reality television figure said during an online interview that he had a sexual relationship with the “Crank That” artist, the singer’s attorney told a judge Wednesday.
During a hearing in Los Angeles Superior Court, lawyer Jacque L. Shirley informed Judge Lia Martin that his client was no longer pursuing the case against blogger Latasha “Tasha K” Kebe and William the Baddest, who also was a member of the cast of “Chasing: L.A.” the YouTube series about young entrepreneurs in the Los Angeles area.
According to court papers Shirley filed on Tuesday, Soulja Boy’s decision is “without prejudice,” meaning the case can be refiled later.
