Gucci-Mane-Waka-Flocka

 

Radric Davis also known as “Gucci Mane” has filed a lawsuit against his former manager and artist. Besides Jaquin “Waka Flocka Flame” Malphurs and Debra Antney, the lawsuit also names other talents associated with his 1017 Records, LLC.  His longtime producer pal Xavier “Zaytoven” Dodson, Otis “OJ da Juiceman” Jones, Jr., and Khia Stone are the other defendants named in the lawsuit.

 

The news comes a month or so after being jailed for violation of probation. The incident that landed him in jail occurred shortly after a public out-lash against several of his music peers on Twitter. He later blamed the outburst on his drug addiction and a former manager for the not-so -politically correct tweets.

 

The feud between Gucci Mane and his artist Waka Flocka has been ongoing for quite some time.  He announced that he was dropping Waka from his label and that any other label can buy him for $1 million.  So, this new lawsuit isn’t really a surprise.

 

According to AJC…

 

The lawsuit claims that Antney took control of the company and along with Malphurs and Stone spawned at least three separate companies without Davis’ consent and, for Malphurs, in direct violation of his artist’s contract.

 

The complaint claims that Antney stole a ring and necklace from Davis, failed to report tax information on her income, and seized control of his money and assets and used them for herself.

 

The lawsuit also accuses her of fraudulently inflating the costs of certain record label expenses and using the excess for personal gain.

 

The group withheld payments and royalties from Davis and Armour as well as records and information about the business of the company, the lawsuit alleges.

 

“Defendants’ misrepresentations and omissions were made with the intent that plaintiffs rely upon them,” the lawsuit reads. “The plaintiffs relied on the representations and would not have entrusted (the) defendants with their careers and livelihoods otherwise.”
