Lil Wayne's Young Money Label Being Sued By 2 Producers Over Unpaid Royalties
Lil Wayne's Young Money imprint is facing two seperate lawsuits by producers who claim they worked on several albums for the label and haven't been properly compensated.
Andrews "Drew" Correa and Marcos "Infamous" Rodriguez filed federal lawsuits this week against Young Money Entertainment according to TMZ.
Both claim they were getting royalty payments until they suddenly stopped and the label has refused to cough up the rest of what they are owed.
Correa says he signed a deal with YME in 2008 to produce music for YME. He claims the music he produced ended up on "Tha Carter III," "Re-Birth," "I'm Not a Human Being" and "Priceless."
Rodriguez has a similar story. He claims he signed a deal in 2007 to produce music for YME and says his music ended up on “Tha Carter III," "Re-Birth," "We Are Young Money," "Carter IV" and "Priceless."
Both producers have hired Singh, Singh and Trauben to represent them.

I can't believe this is still news! They've never paid a producer! Why you think Mannie Fresh left they a**! I'm quite sure they've never paid an artist royalties either!!!

These dudes knew what type of business cash money was doing. Cash Money cheats all producers they hire out of royalties. I had a friend who was a intern in Miami for them and he said that's how they run they business. The sad thing is these young producers are groupies and they want to just be around Wayne and hand out in the studio anyway. They knew for a long time they weren't getting paid. As long as they was around Wayne they didn't complain about it. Why cry now?????? Next time handle your business the right way. There's a lot of cats over at cash money that can't even pay their cell phone bills which is sad. These young dudes with talent need to figure out are they in the business to be friends, or are they in the business to be successful.

Why do people still do business with them? Clowns always attract clowns... You can tell every time a clown defends these fagboys. SMH! It's over for them! Any groupie that thinks otherwise should walk in to the middle of traffic blind folded! FOH!

its a game all major companies play, they will avoid paying you and use your money to invest and profit making flips with it while in court then by the time they ordered to pay they done made 100 mill off your 1-10 mill by investing it or gaining interest on it instead of paying you ontime.
