Drew Dixon told The New York Times that she was 24 and working for Def Jam records when Simmons allegedly raped her in his downtown Manhattan apartment.
It all got really ugly, pretty fast,” she said and described a “scuffle.” She told the paper she remember “him on top of me, pushing me down and him saying, ‘Don’t fight me. I did nothing, I shut my eyes and waited for it to end.”
He pushed me on the bed and jumped on top of me, and physically attacked me,” she explained about the alleged rape. “We were fighting. I said no.” Three people confirmed to the paper that she told them about the attack.

Sallie explained why she did not report the alleged rape.
“If I went to the police, I didn’t know how that would turn out,” she said. “You have to understand, I was very much in a man’s game. Black women were just starting to break into the field.”
Simmons “acknowledged that he dated Ms. Sallie but denied any nonconsensual sex,” through his attorney, the NY Times said.

Simmons “emphatically states that he did not have sex with her [Drew Dixon],” his lawyer said.
Dixon told the New York Times that Simmons apologized to her at an industry event. “He said, ‘I have daughters and I do yoga now, Drew, and I know what I did was wrong, and I’m sorry.’”
Simmons also released a statement about the other accusations in the NYT story, saying: “I vehemently deny all these allegations. These horrific accusations have shocked me to my core and all of my relations have been consensual. I have enormous respect for the women’s movement worldwide and their struggle for respect, dignity, equality and power.”
