Cash Money Records head Birdman is going to have to dig deep into his pockets to reportedly pay over $1 million for songs produced by former protégé Jay Sean.
Details of the powerhouse’s legal woes surfaced online this week.
Cash Money Records owes Orange Factory Music $1.14 million in royalties owed for songs produced for Jay Sean dating back to Dec. 31, 2012, a Louisiana magistrate judge ruled on Wednesday. The lawsuit against Cash Money included a number of songs that Orange Factory produced on contract, as well as some that were produced without any written agreement. (Billboard)
Recent reports claimed Young Money’s Drake and Nicki Minaj were forced to choose sides during Birdman’s publicized feud with Young Money boss Lil Wayne.
Sources close to Young Money tell us the rappers were forced to take sides ever since Lil Wayne sued Birdman for withholding millions for his long-delayed album, “Tha Carter V.” Nicki and Drake backed Lil Wayne for obvious reasons, but we’re told they still had love for Birdman since he paved the way. We’re told Nicki and Drake felt boxed in, scared to death they’d be caught talking to Birdman. (TMZ)
Baby posted up a shot of himself alongside Wayne and rap veteran Yo Gotti last week.
Hollywood actor/rapper Romeo Miller showed off a pic of Wayne and Baby reunited a few days ago.
Good!!! Pay people for there hard work.
