DJ Khaled has decided to sue his former record label, Entertainment One and the the Koch Entertainment label it purchased in 2005 and subsequently absorbed for breach of contract, accounting and unjust enrichment.
According to Billboard, DJ Khaled Productions is seeking at least $1 million over the label’s failure to properly account and pay record and mechanical royalties. The money he is seeking would reportedly cover what he claims are losses across four full-length studio albums released between 2006 and 2010. Those albums include 2006’s Listennn…the Album, We the Best from 2007, 2008’s We Global and Victory released two years after that. The lawsuit also targets DJ Khaled’s Khaled / E Class: Live from the 305, which was released in 2009 and in dispute as eOne claims the project was released under a separate deal with Poe Boy Music Group. Many of the songs Khaled created involved Pitbull, Kanye West, Rick Ross, Ludacris and Lil Wayne, among others and pulled in chart-topping acclaim and RIAA certified Platinum status for certain singles, which would’ve given Khaled and his team handsome returns in royalties.
The first lawsuits summons that were filed by DJ Khaled last May accuse eOne of failing to accurately account for royalties owed, incorrectly characterizing and reporting products it sold and/or licensed and refusing to allow an audit of their accounting practices during the time to determine how much he actually lost.
eOne filed a motion on Wednesday claiming it’s exemption from most of Khaled’s claims, stating it did release the accounting Khaled requests audited and says his accounting rights are limited over the preceding two year period beginning upon delivery of the accounting statement via a clause in his contract. eOne also pointed to another clause limiting him the right to pursue litigation up to one year after the “objection period.” This would make most of DJ Khaled’s lawsuit “contractually barred from asserting the claims set forth in the complaint for the periods 2006 through 2010.”

haha.. thats what the fat fuc gets
We daaaa best foooohhheveaaahhhhhhhh ( retarded speech impediment voice)
You and me are the only people who don’t excuse Khaled and Angie Martinez, basically, speech impediments. They genuinely sound like they have a disability.
hahaha royalties for what ninja? you aint make those beats or rap on them… sounds like he signed a bad deal and they got him by the nuts.
Best beleeeev Khaled about his bidness, he bossed up last year and now he makes just as much as Rick Ross and Mac Miller without having to write any corny rhymes.
He cheated, he used Godfather 50 to boost his status by dissing him and now he makes as much as Godfather 50……..the big boys remain at the top but Fiddy joined Khaled at the bottom of the list to show love.
Khaled never dissed 50 he dont want those problems. They would have ended his life at OVO Fest but he made sure to say he got no beef with them guys.
Khaled is about unity he never beefs with people he only went at 50 so he could rise in popularity and make the Forbes list.
Uh oh! Khaled ran out of checks to cash in for his usual portions of Big Macs

White skinned devils slaughterd millions of their white skinned brothers during the holocaust because they classified them as being non-white. Jewish historians say that the Holocaust lasted 7 years.
Freakish white skinned albino mutants with their sickly pig like skin are nothing more than filthy Neanderthal mutants. Human swine.
Many white skinned Neanderthal albino mutants will attempt to compare a 7 year holocaust with a 400 year holocaust because white skinned people are inherently evil and devilish by nature.
White skinned Jews received reparations and their own homeland and they reintegrated into white society and now they own all the diamond mines in Africa.
White skinned reptilian devils spent 400 years raping, brutalizing, castrating, murdering, mutilating and dehumanizing Africans who they brought to America to be sexual slaves and human chattel.
White devils attempted to destroy these kidnapped Africans with their brutality and savage acts of barbarism but the Africans survived.
Wicked white devils raped men, women and children, hung them from trees and mutilated their sex organs and burned them alive, in a “struggle” for equal human rights the white skinned mutants assassinated Black leaders, bombed Black churches and terrorized an entire community of Blacks with vicious acts of white terrorism.
The pig skinned reptilian albino mutant is against nature because he has recessive genes and a shriveled pink sex organ, the sun scorches his skin and he peels like a snake because mother nature despises him and his hairy Neanderthal mutated self.
Jim Crow, Apartheid, Miscegenation laws, predatory lending, gentrification, segregation and all types of sick dysfunction in society omes from the white boys insecurity of being a genetic recessive mutant who fears genetic annihilation through miscegenation
White bitches bring Black babies into the world when they intermix and anytime a whiye bitch has a baby with a dominate man with color the baby is no longer classified as white, the dominate takes over the recessive which is why the white boy is so insecure about race mixing and interracial dating, he knows that we could wipe him off the planet by just fucking his women and bringing colored babies into this world.
Death to the genetic recessive albino Neanderthal mutant.
straight like dat
wow,blackie why you so pressed
