Florida rapper Lil Pump is showing the darker side of the entertainment industry. The hip-hop newcomer has shared some personal struggles he’s currently going through.
Pump went to his Instagram Story Monday (March 26) to admit his entourage is already changing up on him.
Last week, Pump and New York radio veteran Funk Flex fired shots at one another over footage of himself blowing his nose with a $100 bill.

A few days ago, buzz developed about Pump getting a monster record contract with Warner Bros. Records.
This is the second round of trying to get a valid contract between Warner Bros. Records and Pump. The first contract was invalid because it was never validated by the court and he’s a minor — 17 years old. According to the contract, Warner Bros. Records agrees to pay Pump an $8 million advance, and then $9,000 for the first year, $12k for the second and $15k for the 3rd through 7th contract years. (TMZ)
Once the news went viral, Pump came forward to confirm the $8 million deal and clarify its terms.
“Man, I don’t know where y’all heard all that other bullsh*t. I got $8 million for one project and that’s it! I see y’all pretty mad but your favorite artists ain’t getting 8 million for a project.”
