A friend of Grammy-nominated rapper Slowthai forced himself on a woman at an after-show house party, a court has heard.<\/p>\n

Alex Blake-Walker is accused of raping the woman at the party in the early hours of 8 September 2021.<\/p>\n

It happened after the rapper, whose real name is Tyron Frampton, performed a gig in Oxford, the city’s crown court heard.<\/p>\n

Mr Frampton, 29, and Mr Blake-Walker, 27, deny three joint charges of rape and one of sexual assault against two women.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Mr Blake-Walker of Wallbutton Road, south-east London, was a friend of the rapper and was part of his entourage, the jury was told.<\/p>\n

The prosecution alleged he raped one of the women while being encouraged by Mr Frampton.<\/p>\n

Mr Frampton, of Wellingborough Road, Northampton, had twice raped the other woman while being encouraged by Blake-Walker, the prosecution went on.<\/p>\n

The prosecution also claimed they both sexually assaulted the woman Mr Frampton is alleged to have raped.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Slowthai was nominated for a Grammy award in 2021 and a Mercury prize in 2019<\/figcaption><\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

The court heard Mr Frampton had been performing at The Bullingdon music venue in Oxford city centre the previous evening.<\/p>\n

After meeting fans afterwards, he went back to his tour bus before being invited to a party at a house where one of the female group lived.<\/p>\n

The first woman told the jury she had gone onto the roof of that property with the second woman, Mr Blake-Walker and Mr Frampton.<\/p>\n

She said after talking they began kissing consensually, but then Blake-Walker forced her to perform a sex act upon him.<\/p>\n

Sheryl Nwosu, representing Mr Blake-Walker, suggested the consensual kissing led to consensual oral sex.<\/p>\n

“Not willingly,” the woman replied.<\/p>\n

“When he pushed me down, I said I didn’t want to do that. I said repeatedly I wanted to go back inside.”<\/p>\n

Denying she was embarrassed, she described why she fled the house, telling the jury: “I wanted to get myself out of a very scary situation.”<\/p>\n

In a recorded interview with the police, the complainant said she had been “excited” Frampton was going to the house.<\/p>\n

The trial continues.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
