In the UK, rapper Slowthai, whose real name is Tyron Kaymone Frampton, arrived at Oxford court to face serious allegations involving two women. The charges stem from an incident that occurred after his performance at The Bullingdon music venue on September 8, 2021, where he allegedly raped one woman and sexually assaulted another. Co-defendant Alex Blake-Walker is also implicated in the case, accused of sexually assaulting the same woman. Both men deny the charges.
