The rapper Nekfeu, who had disappeared from the musical landscape for several months, is today in turmoil after his ex-wife denounced acts of domestic violence against him on Monday, November 4, 2024, through her lawyer.

It’s a new earthquake that is shaking the French rap world. While across the Atlantic theAffaire P. Diddy joins the campaign for the American presidential election, the outcome of which should be known on Tuesday, November 5, we recently learned that the French Naps would indeed be put on trial and that he remained under judicial supervision after several complaints filed against him by young women who accused him of rape and sexual assault. This is what Nekfeu finds himself in turmoil: his ex-wife denounces acts of domestic violence that she would have suffered during their marriage, for four years. It was the lawyer of the alleged victim, Maître Florence Fekom, who wanted to lift the veil on this affair.
