Lil Wayne: Rap Star's Shocking Legal Trouble
By “Bad” Brad Berkwitt
Producer Darius Harrison, who at one time worked for Rap Star Lil Wayne on his hit song LOLLIPOP, is suing the artist according to a story on TMZ.com. LOLLIPOP appeared on the CD THE CARTER III and made an estimated $70 million.
Harrison is reportedly suing for $20 million and his defendants include Young Money Entertainment and Cash Money Records. Darius was the Producer of the singles WHIP IT, PROSTITUTE 2, ACTION, MRS.OFFICER and LET THE BEAT BUILD. LOLLIPOP rose to #1 on the Billboard charts and won a Grammy for the Best Rap Song in 2009. This is not the first time that Darius has sued Lil Wayne. The producer sued Wayne previously demanding $2.5 million for the work that he did on MRS. OFFICER.
Representatives from the Wayne camp have made no comment to date on this situation…
