Three More Men Accuse Hip-Hop Legend Afrika Bambaataa Of S*xually Harassing Them When They Were Stil

Three more men have come forward claiming to have been s*xually harassed by hip-hop pioneer Afrika Bambaataa. The claims are coming on the heels of a similar claim by Ronald Savage, 50-year-old music executive and Democratic Party activist, who said about a week ago that Bambaataa s*xually molested him not less than five times in 1980.

One of the men who just opened up about their experiences at the hands of Bambaataa said the maker of 1982 track “Planet Rock” started visiting his Bronx apartment in the late 1980s. Campbell, 39, says that during the visits, Bambaataa would provide him with meals, roof over his head, a bed or money anytime he needed it. However, he says that “was the worst place to be, telling the Daily News that during this time, when he was 12 and 13 years, Bambaataa used to s*xually abuse him.

“He is a pervert,” Campbell added. “He likes little boys.”

According to another man who was also allegedly molested by the hip-hop legend but requested anonymity told the Daily News he believes what Savage is saying since “he [Bambaataa] did it to me.”

“I have never spoken to anybody about this and when I did, I said “Holy s—, they finally caught up to him,” said the now 50-year-old man.

It appears the number of those molested by Bambaataa is only continuing to grow. Another man, a 51-year-old from New Yorker going by the name Troy, who didn’t want both his names published, told the Daily News he was also a victim of Bambaataa’s s*xual escapades.

Troy, who now resides in North Carolina, told the newspaper he’s “been dealing with this for years,” adding that “It’s a shame this didn’t come out earlier.”

Campbell and the other victims have revealed that the music star used to first show them pornographic videos before giving them oral s*x.

“He showed me a book with a picture of a penis and said, ‘You don’t have to be gay for me to suck your d—,'” Troy said.

Savage revealed that he first met Bambaataa back in 1980 when the star was working as both a DJ and a producer. Savage, who was 14 at that time, was one of the many “crate boys,” kids who used to work with Bambaataa’s Zulu Nation hip-hop collection by simply carrying records.

“It was just about fun, hanging out, listening to music,” says Savage. Unknown to him, things were about to change.

Savage was then Zulu Nation’s youngest member. The group used to focus on doing politically aware hip-hop and was known for throwing several hip-hop parties within Manhattan.

“I had a big name on the street. I was the youngest of the Zulu Nation. Nobody bothered me back then because nobody messed with the Zulu Nation,” he said.

However, one day, after he turned 15, he skipped a class session and visited Bambaataa’s home, and that’s when things got nasty.

“I was in the living room, another gentleman was there, and they was DJing,” he told the Daily News. “Bam told me I could go into his bedroom ’cause the TV was on.'”

A few minutes later, Bambaataa followed him to the bedroom, removed his manhood and started touching it before doing the same to Savage.

Bambaataa’s lawyer has dismissed the allegations, saying, “Defamatory statements were published seeking to harm my client’s reputation so as to lower him in the estimation of the community while deterring others from associating or dealing with him.”

She added that “the statements show a reckless disregard for the truth, were published with knowledge of their falsity, and are being made by a lesser-known person seeking publicity.”

For civil cases, the law requires that the victim files a case by the time they attain the age of 23.
