Things between Ray J<\/a> and his ex Kim Kardashian<\/a> have just escalated to a whole new, legally serious level. But sadly, this is yet another notch in their ongoing issues with each other. Don\u2019t worry, we\u2019ll break it down.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, it was announced Ray J had been hit with a brand new defamation suit thanks to Kim and her mother Kris Jenner. The legal move comes just one week after the \u201cLast Wish\u201d singer made a viral claim during a livestream with influencer Chrisean Rock that he was working with the federal government to help them build a RICO case against the two aforementioned women, per Page Six<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe federal RICO I\u2019m about to drop on Kim and Kris is about to be crazy. I\u2019m talking about, I\u2019m on the news every day, I\u2019m gonna say a lot of sh*t. Anybody that is cool with Kim, they need to tell her now: The feds is coming. There\u2019s nothing I can do about it,\u201d he said at the time.<\/p>\n

Those sentiments echoed ones he made earlier this year in May in the \u201cTMZ Presents: United States vs. Sean Combs: Inside the Diddy Trial\u201d documentary, where he said that \u00a0\u201cracketeering charges against the Kardashians would be appropriate.\u201d <\/p>\n

Now, thanks to his provocative words, he\u2019s facing an entire lawsuit from his ex and her mother. Lawyers for the two women reference his actions as yet another attempt for him to \u201cattach himself\u201d and \u201cexploit their prominence for personal gain,\u201d because he still can\u2019t get over the fact that he and Kim have been done romantically for decades.<\/p>\n

That notion alone makes you wonder just how things soured so bad between all of them to begin with? <\/p>\n

I mean, we all know that Ray J and Kim\u2019s infamous 2007 sex tap was the crux of the Kardashian\u2019s family fame. Prior to that Kim was working as a stylist to his sister Brandy and hadn\u2019t gained any sort of real clout or prominence.<\/p>\n

But things would all change after their sex tape was \u201cleaked\u201d and subsequently took over the internet and took pop culture by storm. In the years since, the Kardashians have been able to flip that sordid moment into a multi-million dollar family empire with businesses in various industries like the beauty industry, modeling, women\u2019s wear and more.<\/p>\n

All the while though, Ray J\u2019s career alternatively hasn\u2019t seen an iota of the same type of success. Sure, his song \u201cSexy Can I\u201d peaked at number three on Hot 100 chart one year after the sex tape dropped. And sure, he secured his own reality dating show the year after that. And yes, he\u2019s remained a reality TV staple\u2014but his consistent digs at the Kardashians are arguably more known than any of his accomplishments.<\/p>\n

Who could forget his 2013 song \u201cI Hit it First?\u201d when he distastefully brought back up the tape and how he was first sexually involved with Kim. Things would only go from bad to worse nearly a decade later when he alleged that Kris \u201chand-picked\u201d which tape would be best to publicize<\/a>, noting that there were two tapes shot in two different locations and she watched both to see which one her daughter \u201clooked the best in.\u201d Later, he called them both out again for alleging that he was holding another sex tape over their heads and that claimed that the whole incident was a deal agreed upon by all of them<\/a> in the first place.<\/p>\n

As time went on, other claims from Ray J against the two women have ranged from him and Kim having to \u201creshoot\u201d the tape <\/a>at the behest of Kris to OnlyFans possibly not even being a thing<\/a> if he hadn\u2019t of done what they did all those years ago.<\/p>\n

So it\u2019s really no wonder why now, after all these shots against them in the public eye, the Kardashians are taking major steps to get Ray J to shut his trap once and for all. Maybe this defamation suit will be the thing he needs in order to finally move past this famous family. But until then, we have no doubt, this will be entertaining and interesting to see play out.<\/p>\n
