Rapper Curren$y Suing Damon Dash


The MC is suing music producer Damon Dash, claiming he is selling several Curren$y albums without permission.

Curren$y filed the lawsuit against Jay-Z's old business partner and former co-owner of Roc-A-Fella Records  claiming he and Dash tried to negotiate an agreement to release music together in 2010 but the deal never materialized.

Curren$y claims Dash released two of his albums in 2010 but the two still couldn't reach an agreement so Curren$y signed with Warner Bros. in January 2011.

But according to the lawsuit, Damon continued  to release Curren$y's music despite the new WB contract, which gave WB exclusive rights to Curren$y's jams.

Now, Curren$y is demanding the producer quit profiting off him in any way. Curren$y also wants $1.5 million in damages.

But Damon fired back at the accusations with his own response  claiming, he has the right to release the albums in question because he was given permission.
