: NEW YORK (AP) — A recording company has sued Lil' Kim for $2.5 million, saying the Grammy-winning rapper hasn't delivered all the recordings their contract requires.
Brookland Media filed the lawsuit Tuesday in Manhattan's state Supreme Court. Lil' Kim's lawyer, Londell McMillan, says Brookland sued "to leverage their own position" in the contract dispute.
The lawsuit says Brookland contracted with Lil' Kim this year and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on recordings, equipment and advance payments.
Court papers say the rapper later tried to change the contract and refused to continue recording unless Brookland agreed. The papers say she had recorded only a few tracks toward a new album by the beginning of September.
Brookland wants the court to declare the contract valid and bar Lil' Kim from recording for another company.
If The Joker is in violation of her contract agreement with Brookland (and particularly in light of the fact they advanced her money, paid for the recording sessions she DID deliver tapes from AND purchased equipment for her) then they are perfectly within their legal rights to take to Court and file an injunction preventing her from recording for any other label or collaborating with any other artist on THEIR label. In other words, completely *** her down. If The Joker violates the Court-ordered injunction, then she will go BACK to jail!
Plain and simple. A contract is a contract. You gotta hold up your end or else pay the price.
Kim better get some ACT RITE, If she want another hit record! God don't like Ugly Kim! Yo face is starting to show that so act like u got some daym sense and do whats right!!! She should be happy producers even want to mess with her has-been a$$. Get yo life together, these aint Junior Mafia days, Remember yo car being repoed???? GET IN THE STUDIO AND GET YO LIL A$$ 2 WORK, ***!
I'm so disappointed in Lil' Kim. She used to be so pretty now she looks like a jacked-up Jackson reject. What's wrong wit black folks that when they get some dough, they go out & buy new faces? Black is beautiful, in all complexions. Back in the day, it was weave & contacts. Now it's snip this, tuck that, lighten up here. Black people, love yourselves. At the rate we're going, the black race will become extinct, especially if we fail to recognize where we come from. Being black is not a right, it is a priveledge. I didn't want to get so deep but I am fed up. It seems everyone wants to be black except black people. Love is love and love is blind but black love is beautiful, and that I can see. Black men love your black women like we have been loving you. Men get a little change in their pockets then decide they are too good for a black woman. Brothers love light, bright close to white but what does that say about you? Are you not strong enough to handle a strong black woman? Without the cars, houses, and jewelry, would a white woman go to the hood and live with you? Would they accept you then? I got a little off topic but it stems back to loving yourself. If you know who you are, you know what you'll stand for.

where was her lawyer prior to her signing the initial contract , that she is now trying to change? this is so unprofessional Ms Kim.. and it sounds like you don't have a leg to stand on. Now, you know you have to uphold the initial contract's recordings.reading is fundamental. You're getting old anyway, Kim. Are you not from the Puffy era? Just let it go.i can't think of anything worse than an old female rapper on the mic.
that *** looks like she escaped from the crazy house over the w/e and the face is still running!!
*** WTF did u do 2 urself.. i know BIG is rolling over in his grave...
SHE LOOKS LIKE SHE LOST HER MOTHERFCUKIN MIND!!
WASSUP with all the Black Folk wasting their bread on this plastic surgery?? let the dumbazz white *** do that! BLACK DONT CRACK!
She didn't look that bad when she took her weave out and took off that make up to go to jail...She just looked normal....Jab Judah was bout ta cry ain't it?...oh back to da matta at hand... Kim's music has to be just right,she has an ear for what she likes...But in the mean time? she gonna spend that money!!!.They should've known that before they got into a contract with her...They're gonna have to chalk that up!
