New York rapper C-Rayz Walz is currently sitting in jail after he was arrested and charged with felony rape.
The rapper has reportedly been locked up since December 13, 2019, and is scheduled to make an appearance in court on April 15, but that may be postponed due to the COVID-19 outbreak, according to HipHopDX.
The rapper’s manager spoke to the publication about the case.
“At this current time, C-Rayz Walz can’t discuss or comment on this allegation,” Rebs K.P. told HipHopDX. “What I can say is that I have known C-Rayz Walz as both his manager and closest friend for six years. I have seen him devote the majority of his time to take care and provide for his son.”
She continued, “Walz put his music career on the back burner in order to be the best father he could be. Walz knows what it is like to grow up without a father figure, and also what a perilous time it is to be a black man in America.”
The rapper maintains his innocence.
