Afrobeats DJ Tim Westwood Faces Rape & Assault Charges
Veteran British DJ Tim Westwood, once a celebrated figure for championing Afrobeats and hip-hop, now faces multiple charges of rape and sexual assault involving seven women. The allegations, spanning from 1982 to 2016, have reignited questions about power, consent, and accountability in the music industry. Westwood, who denies all accusations, was previously exposed in a 2022 BBC–Guardian investigation for alleged misconduct. As the case unfolds, Kelechi Okafor, author and social commentator, joins Judith to unpack the cultural fallout, the role of institutions, and how this moment could reshape the conversation around abuse and justice in creative spaces.
