SSGKobe is speaking out.

Back in December, Louisanna artist SSGKobe was accused of sexual assault. A fellow artist by the name of Ka$hkenni accused him of forcing her to have sex with him. Overall, these allegations also came with screenshots from alleged text message conversations. All of this was posted on her Instagram page, although the page was eventually taken down. At the time, SSGKobe tried to clear his name by responding to the situation.

“The picture being painted is not based on facts," he explained at the time, according to HipHopDX. "I apologize that my desire to not have a long term relationship with someone was not properly communicated by me, resulting in a false resharing of events. I will leave this matter to be further addressed by my legal team.” However, it seems as though things have gotten worse for the young artist. While taking to his Instagram story, SSGKobe revealed that he was dropped by his label.

“As far as music goes, I’m currently no longer signed to a label due to the accusations, which is another reason for the delay of drops which is going to change asap," he explained. "I appreciate the support and love that I have been receiving and I can’t wait to give you guys a project I feel you will love. Have a great day.” Prior to this revelation, he revealed that his team told him not to address the allegations directly. Ultimately, that is why fans haven't heard from SSGKobe in quite some time.

Overall, there is still a lot that needs to be determined here. It is clear that SSGKobe wants to move on and clear his name. However, the allegations against him remain. That said, it seems like new music is on the way. This is a developing story, so be sure to stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.
