Gamma, the entertainment firm founded by Larry Jackson, is now at the center of a legal dispute. The issue involves what it describes as a coordinated online defamation effort. According to reports, the company has filed suit in New York State Supreme Court. Specifically, it is seeking to identify the anonymous operators behind a pair of websites it says were created to damage both its reputation and that of its chief executive.
In court filings, Gamma alleges that the sites published false and damaging claims involving financial misconduct, streaming manipulation, and the misuse of investor funds. The company argues the material was not only untrue but strategically timed to circulate. This all occurred during a period of heightened visibility for Jackson and the firm within the music industry.
The lawsuit points specifically to “larryjacksonexposed.com” and “gammaexposed.com,” which it says emerged shortly after a positive Bloomberg profile detailed Jackson’s growing influence in the sector. According to the complaint, the sites circulated a range of accusations. These included claims tied to inflated streaming activity for Ye’s (formerly known as Kanye West) Bully album and assertions that investor capital was spent on private aviation and other luxury expenses. Notably, one of the pages stated Jackson “is down to his last [USD] 10m of the 100m he raised” and alleged the company was “embezzling investor funds for private flights, grandiose lifestyle, personal PR and legacy artist signings to enhance image and status.”
Gamma Denies Allegations as Coordinated Online Campaign Comes Under Scrutiny
The filing also references additional claims involving artists associated with the company, including Mariah Carey and Usher. Those posts suggested financial wrongdoing, streaming manipulation, and internal instability allegations. Gamma firmly denies it in its court response.
Beyond the content itself, the company argues the websites were supported by a coordinated amplification effort across social media. It claims hundreds of newly created accounts pushed links to the material in rapid succession. In addition, similar narratives appeared on Reddit before being removed. Gamma says its investigators have been unable to identify those responsible due to anonymized hosting structures and layered online protections. The company is now seeking damages, removal of the sites, and a jury trial.
