Lil Wayne scores big in court!
It’s been a long journey for Lil Wayne and Birdman, but the two have finally settled their legal issues in court. According to The Blast, Wayne reportedly walked away with more than $10 million, and is now free from his Cash Money contract. Universal Records signed the check, therefore, none of the money actually came out of Birdman’s pocket.
Shortly after this was reported, entrepreneur and social media maven,Karen Civil took to Twitter to dispute The Blast’s claims, “Lil Wayne Settlement Update: A portion of the information released today is true, a settlement has been reached, but the dollar amount being disclosed is false! Lil Wayne’s PR team will send out a statement shortly with accurate updates.”
Apparently, Weezy’s attorney, Howard King, filed legal documents on May 23, stating that both parties were ready to dismiss the lawsuit and reach a settlement.
In addition to cutting ties with Cash Money, Wayne can now release his highly anticipated The Carta V album via Universal Records.
Stay tuned for updates on this case.
