Curren$y Files Law Suit Against Dame Dash

[king dru]

(AllHipHop News) TMZ is reporting that Jet Life Recordings founder Curren$y is suing Dame Dash, co-founder of both Roc-A-Fella and DD172.
Curren$y, whose real name is Shante Scott Franklin, is suing Dash for $1.5 million for releasing his music without permission or compensation. TMZ states that both Dash and Franklin began negotiating an agreement to release music together back in 2010; while the deal never materialized, music was still released.
The lawsuit states that two of Curren$y’s albums in 2010, Pilot Talk and Pilot Talk II, were released by Dash despite the New Orleans MC striking a deal with Warner Bros. who had exclusive rights to his music.
At press time, Dash has responded by claiming that he had the right to release “the albums in question because he was given permission.” Dash states that Curren$y stabbed him in the back by “reneging on their agreement and signing instead with Warner Bros.”
A judge has yet to rule in favor of either side. More details will be released soon.

CURREN$Y probably did double cross DAME with that WARNER BROS. deal thinking he hit the jackpot. Quiet as its kept, PILOT TALK I & II are CURREN$Ys best cds.

Yeah Curren$y prolly did try and get that warner money on some fuck it shit. But in my opinion he needs to quit dropping all these mixtapes and 5 song ep's and just hit the game with straight albums of good material.

I'm guessing curren$y would've stayed with DD172 if the money was right, & the promotion & distribution had been better. I couldn't find pilot talk 1 or 2 in stores there first week, even at best buy.
