Megan Thee Stallion has filed a new lawsuit against her record label.
The rapper accuses 1501 Certified Entertainment of not respecting the clauses of their agreement by refusing to consider her compilation
Something For Thee Hotties
released last October as an album in its own right.
However, in view of this decision, the contract of the artist still obliges her to deliver two albums to the label, which is for her inadmissible.
"The new position of 1501, taken several months after the release of the album, is clearly a ruse to try to take advantage of Pete at great expense but in bad faith", argued the lawyers of the artist, whose real name is Megan Pete, in the complaint obtained by the NME.
Two bells ringing
From the point of view of Megan Thee Stallion's defense,
Something For Thee Hotties
has the qualities of an album since it contains at least one unreleased track and has a total duration of 45:02 minutes.
His contract defines an album as being at least 45 minutes in length.
Obviously, 1501 Certified Entertainment does not hear things that way.
"She can't just deliver an album to us that we haven't approved and then claim it fulfills the terms of her contract," attorney Steven M. Zager said in a statement.
Last August, Megan Thee Stallion had already attacked her label on the grounds that the release of her remix of the title
Butter
by BTS had been blocked.
The judge in charge of the case had agreed with the artist.
It remains to be seen whether the same will apply in this new case.
