At the start of the month, Riff Raff had a tour of Australia cancelled after being accused of rape and sexual misconduct by two women. Now, the rapper has responded to the claims.
In a video posted to his Instagram account, Riff Raff says, "Never once have I forced a girl to have sex. Never once have I forced a girl to do any type of drugs. I don't want to have a girl drunk and sleepy."
In the caption of the post, Riff Raff reveals the clip comes from a film titled Trial by Media, which he claims is a production "ABOUT HOW FALSE ALLEGATiONS ARE THE NEW EASY WAVE FOR PEOPLE TO LiE AND QUiCKLY GET THEiR NAME iN THE MEDiA BY USiNG BLOOD THiRSTY COPY & PASTE LAZY JOURNALiST AT THE EXPENSE OF ACTUAL ARTiSTS, ATHLETES & HiGH PROFiLE EASY TARGET PARTY MOGULS."

On May 31, a woman named Eliza Stafford alleged in a Facebook post that Riff Raff had drugged and raped her in 2013, when she was 19 years old.
Stafford's allegations led to a second woman named Kelsey Doucette coming forward to Jezebel with claims of her own, alleging the rapper had tried to coerce her into sex while she was 17 years old on the Milwaukee stop of Warped Tour in July 2015.
