Ty Dolla $ign and YG reportedly paid at least $100,000 to an Australian soccer star to make a lawsuit go away, according to TMZ.
The two South Central Los Angeles artists were nearly dragged into the suit — filed by emerging Australian soccer star Nelly Yoa — but because they agreed to pay Yoa and “low six-figure amount,” they were able to avoid court.
The Aussie athlete claims Ty and YG beat him up following an argument involving the VIP section at a Melbourne nightclub in January 2015.
Yoa stated he was “punched” and “kicked in the head,” and alleges the incident resulted in physical and mental trauma, which has interfered with his ability to establish a lucrative soccer contract.
Ty and YG are occasional collaborators. They recently came together for “Ex” off of Ty’s newest album Beach House 3, and were both featured on London on Da Track’s latest “Whatever You On” alongside Young Thug and Jeremih.
