Rapper, Tim Dog, has been out of the spotlight for some time now. Tim Dog rose to fame in the early 1990s, due to his song, "Fuck Compton." It was his song, along with many other disses from West Coast to East Coast rappers, and vice versa. The diss would be the only notable track from Tim Dog, to date.

Twenty years following his well-known diss, Tim Dog is back in the news. While he is back in the news, Tim Dog would rather it be for something besides a crime. The New York rapper met a woman from Mississippi on an online dating site and began a long distance relationship.

Tim Dog defrauded the woman, Esther Pilgrim, out of thousands of dollars. The 1990s rapper pled guilty of the crimes and is facing five years of probation. During this period, Tim Dog has to pay $19,000 on a residual basis. Tim Dog caused Pilgrim to amass $32,000 in credit card debt. The reason he used the money was because he needed funding for his comeback album.
