A former radio host accused a New Jersey rapper of raping her while she was drunk and barely conscious in a Coney Island hotel room, according to a shocking lawsuit.
Domonique Hayes, 40, claims Keyon Hart, 45, who goes by the name Snake IIz, ignored her repeated pleas to stop when he sexually assaulted her on July 4, 2025.
He then tried to intimidate her by boasting about having a gun and claiming he was a “pimp,” according to the complaint filed Sept. 11 in Manhattan Supreme Court.
When she confronted Hart — a crew member of the ’90s hip-hop duo MOP called “First Family” — a few days later, he apologized but then angered her by saying she hadn’t been raped but simply regretted having sex after the fact, according to the suit.
“I’m sorry…the alcohol got the better of me,” he allegedly wrote in since-deleted Instagram messages, the complaint alleges.
“I deny all of that to be completely honest,” Hart told the Post. “None of this is true, she’s a liar.”
He claimed there were messages between them after the encounter in which Hayes allegedly said: “All I can think about is having sex with you.”
He did not provide those messages to the Post. His lawyer, René Myatt, declined to comment.
Hart has features with Tupac Shakur and collaborations with Wu-Tang-related Killah Priest. The underground rapper’s most popular songs include “Sick” featuring Redrum781, “Boom!” with Fred the Godson and “Get Em” with Lil’ Fame. He has over 70,000 followers on Instagram.
Hayes said she has known Hart for years and first connected with him professionally in 2016 when she interviewed him about his music for his online radio show, PrettygirlsXXX on Florida’s BlogTalkRadio.
He and Hayes saw each other again in 2019 after moving to New York and the two men became friends, according to the lawsuit.
Hart allegedly kept her in his circle by promising musical collaborations that never came to fruition and having her model for his clothing brand, Soldi Sporchi – for which she claims she was never paid.
On the day of the alleged rape, Hayes, Hart and her friends — including Lil’ Fame of the duo MOP — were celebrating July 4 and Hart’s birthday on the Coney Island boardwalk.
Eventually, the party ended and Hayes and Hart went to his room at the nearby Best Western Hotel, according to the complaint.
“(She) felt comfortable returning to Mr. Hart’s room to rest because he had previously stayed at her home in Queens,” the filing alleges. During these stays, Hart never tried “anything sexual or inappropriate.”
The woman said she had already spent the day drinking, but had a few more drinks while they hung out at the hotel and watched fireworks around 1 a.m.
She began feeling “dizzy” and having “trouble keeping her eyes open,” the filing states.
That’s when Hart pulled down his pants and pressed his groin against her buttocks, according to the complaint. She pulled them up and allegedly told him, “I’m not doing this with you. Let go of my pants.”
But he allegedly removed them a second time a few minutes later, as she lost consciousness, the file states.
From that point on, she was “conscious and unconscious,” according to the lawsuit. She would remember him forcibly kissing her, performing oral sex on her and penetrating her.
The accuser – who never reported the alleged attack to police – is seeking unspecified damages, as well as compensation for modeling she did for Hart.
“We stand with our client, Ms. Hayes, and with all women who have been abused. For too long, men have used promises of work or success to lure women into vulnerable situations where they can sexually exploit them,” her lawyer, Lawrence Pearson, told the Post..
