Lil Uzi Vert is facing serious allegations from M99 Studios, a tour production company, which claims the rapper owes them over $500,000. According to a lawsuit filed in Georgia, M99 Studios accuses Lil Uzi Vert of failing to pay $533,499 in contract payments and expenses incurred during his tours.
The production company alleges that they have been working with Lil Uzi Vert for years, handling the creative aspects, production, and staffing for his tours and performances. This includes notable events like Rolling Loud Miami and The Roots Picnic. However, M99 Studios claims that Lil Uzi Vert’s credit card payments frequently declined, forcing them to cover the expenses themselves to ensure the safety and well-being of the crew.
Despite numerous requests for payment, M99 Studios asserts that Lil Uzi Vert has not compensated them for their services. The company is now seeking a court judgment to recover the owed amount. As of now, Lil Uzi Vert has not publicly responded to the lawsuit.
This legal battle adds to a series of controversies surrounding the rapper. Recently, Lil Uzi Vert’s name was mentioned in a diss track by Sukihana aimed at JT, which caught many fans by surprise. Despite the legal issues, Lil Uzi Vert continues to be a significant figure in the music industry, with his artistry inspiring many, including fellow artist Coi Leray.
While the outcome of the lawsuit remains uncertain, it highlights the financial and contractual challenges that can arise in the music industry. Fans and industry insiders alike are keenly watching to see how this situation unfolds in court.
