Atlanta rap ambassadors Future and Rocko have exhibited great chemistry over the years on records such as “Chosen One,” “U.O.E.N.O.” and “Squares Out Your Circle” but apparently when the studio sessions were complete, bitter animosity lingered in the air.
TMZ is reporting that Rocko (born Rodney Hill, Jr.) is suing Future Hendrix for a breach of contract stemming from a 2011 deal where the “Panda” rapper Dirty Sprite creator was supposed to release a whopping six albums on Rocko’s A1 Recordings. The end result of such bad business practices? Allegedly $10 million.
According to the lawsuit, Epic Records was brought on to be a distributor for said albums that never saw the light of day because Future allegedly got crafty and cut a side deal with the label, leaving Rocko out of 25 percent commission on advance money and another 20 percent of Future’s tour and endorsement earnings.
Multi-million dollar advances tend to attract court cases. Just saying.
WoooooooooooW
Fight to the death over it winner gets losers money…lol and if its not worth fighting over then shut the fuck up
Watch Rodney end up in a Dangerfield.
I like what you did there
Mfer biting the hand that fead them. Dude bought you out the strip club and put you on. Now if you want to negotiate that’s one thing. But denying a dude that pulled you out the streets is crazy.
Tru shit!
LOL at “the Panda rapper” being crossed out.
Business is Business , family or not, pay up if you owe, im pretty sure he reach out to him before it came to this. smh
Lol go fuck yourself DX. That panda idiot sounds nothing like Future
6 album deal out the gate? I smell a settlement coming. Future is just too big right now for a record label not to cover that tab.???
hiphopdx
I am pretty sure rocko reached out to future before making it public
