Lil Wayne to Drop Lawsuit Against Birdman & Cash Money Records

From the looks of things, it seems like Lil Tunechi has backed up the dates and stopped the lawsuit from moving forward–for now. Though there have been several allegations and rumors leading up to this $51 million suit, Rollingstone.com, has confirmed that Lil Wayne will NOT proceed to drop the lawsuit on Cash Money, but will file for a new one in New Orleans!

While dubbing the original lawsuit filed in the native land of New York for both Cash Money Records and Universal Music Group, these parties have decided to re-file the lawsuit in New Orleans, where Wayne had originally signed his Cash Money contract. "The claims previously asserted by Lil Wayne and Young Money LLC against Cash Money for substantial monies owed and breach of fiduciary duty have not been settled and will be prosecuted in Louisiana as expeditiously as possible,” Weezy’s camp told The Rolling Stone.

Unfortunately, this fiasco came upon us when the Stuntin’ Like My Daddy rapper took to social media that he wanted off of his label, Cash Money Records in December. He accused Cash Money and it’s CEO Bryan Birdman Williams of refusing to release his new album The Carter V, and pay him the $8 million advance that was reportedly promised to him. Alongside of social media rants, he expressed his concerns on his latest mixtape Sorry For The Wait 2, Coco Freestyle. Yes, shots were definitely fired, and at this point Lil Wayne has no words for Birdman, according to The Rolling Stone.

Although the artist was not able let his hair down on the Carter V album, Wayne has not slowed down a bit with his up-and-coming project titled Free Weezy. As Wayne has been out promoting his album at clubs, and many other events, Birdman has been doing a little self promo while rekindling the old flame with the Leather So Soft throwback at a few of the Young Thug concerts. The feud between these two seem to be getting quite steamy with club appearance shade and more!

We can only hope for the best in this situation, because who would have ever imagined the day of Birdman and Birdman Jr. coming to a close! Stay tuned for more updates on this story.
