Yung Joc Dismisses Dead Beat Dad Reports, Says He's 'Never Missed A Payment'

Following a lawsuit filed by his baby's mother over child support, rapper Yung Joc recently addressed the allegations of late payments, claiming it's been blown out of proportion.

Joc (real name: Jasiel Robinson) called into Atlanta's V103 radio station on Monday (August 18) where he stressed the fact that he pays monthly payments to Fatimah Jester, but when the process was delayed -- beyond his control -- she made a big deal out of it.

"I never missed a payment," Joc said during the radio interview. "I don't pay it directly to her; I pay it through [the Georgia Department of Resources Office of Child Support Services]. My banker wires the funds to DHR; they wire the funds right to her account. However long that takes, she needs to discuss that with them, and not put me out there bad like that."

In the lawsuit that became public last week, Jester claimed that the rapper owed her $2,000 in back child support for their 7-year-old son Amoni, and had refused to stay in touch with her.

Joc, however, explained that he does spend quality time with his son, and is upset about how the media portrayed him as a dead beat dad in light of the lawsuit.

"They brought up all the charges I been through, but they never brought up the fact that since I been on I've contributed over half a million to charities and I do charitable work every week," Joc explained. "You got cats out here that don't even be with their kids. And it hurts even more because I am a black man ... you born into this world as a black man, your back's against the wall. So I'm trying to do everything I can to go against the odds."
