Time for a TOT:

I have been sick for the past few days so I haven’t had much a chance to toke or TOT, but here’s one I couldn’t pass up. This really pisses me off. For every successful person, theres 50 unsuccessful, unfamous bloodsuckers who want to be recognized for some bullshit. Today, a man named ‘Bangladesh’, who worked with Wayne on some songs, announced that he is suing Wayne for over $500 000 in royalties that Wayne apperantly ‘owes’ him.

Here is the story:

This time, the producer Bangladesh is suing Lil Wayne for Tha Carter III single – “A Milli“. Weezyhas previously been sued for a few C3 tracks including: “Got Money“, “Mrs. Officer“, “Lollipop“, “Playing With Fire“, and now “A Milli“. Check out what Bangladesh said about Wayne below when VIBE asked him if he will be collaborating with Tune again on Tha Carter IV:

Lil Wayne may be locked in Rikers Island away from the industry, but that’s not stopping some of his associates from handling business with him. Grammy award-winning producer, Shondrae “Bangladesh” Crawford has a bone to pick with Mr. Dwayne Carter. A $500,000 bone.

“I don’t fuck with Lil Wayne… and you can print that,” Bangladesh told VIBE, when asked if fans should anticipate a reunion come his 2011 release. “Cash Money don’t pay royalties. Tha Carter III, is his biggest album probably because of “A Milli”. But you have to sue these guys so that they pay up.”

The Atlanta beatmaker disclosed that he is suing for an estimated 500 Gs in owed royalty checks for his work on “A Milli“, one of Wayne’s most revered records of all time. A single that earned him Best Rap Solo Performance at the 2009 Grammy’s and gave Tha Carter III ammunition to sell a million records it’s first week of release in June 2008.

“It’s Wayne and Baby’s responsibility to pay me because all the money from album sales goes to Cash Money. I get checks from Sony for Beyonce, checks from different labels for different artists, it just comes to you. You don’t have to call them, sue them and all that junk. This is what you’re owed.”

He continues, “I don’t really give a fuck about Wayne. I can’t give a fuck about somebody that don’t give a fuck about my situation, I have kids. In the hood, people get killed for ten dollars. I couldn’t imagine owing someone hundreds of thousands of dollars and just walking around in front of them. I’m so confident in myself, that I don’t need Lil Wayne. There’s gonna be so many opportunities. I can create a Lil Wayne“.

A nominee for VIBE’s Best Producer of All-Time, Bangladesh went on to explain the corrupted process of Cash Money, centering on Baby.

“This is why Mannie Fresh don’t fuck with Cash Money because he never got any royalty money. That’s why Baby can go around flaunting this cash, because that’s everyone else’s money… It’s not even Wayne’s fault. Wayne is not getting money. He is given money, he’s not getting money. If Baby gets a million dollars he’ll buy Wayne a Phantom, but that’s in Cash Money’s name. That 14-bedroom mansion isn’t Wayne shit,” he says. “That’s why he have his own company, because he was trying to leave Cash Money and the only thing that would keep him there was if they gave him his own thing. But Baby still controls that. All those Young Money artists don’t even know that they not getting royalty money.”

Bangladesh, who secured his placement on The Carter III when his friend and Young Money artist, Shanell suggested the “A Milli” beat to Wayne, recalls the first time he met self-proclaimed Best Rapper Alive. “Wayne is a different guy. I first stepped to him years ago. Don’t know if he was on drugs, but he ignored me,” Bang says. “This was before ‘A Milli‘. I didn’t sweat it because I told myself that one day, I ain’t gotta say nothing, he’s gonna like the music.” The premonition came to life indeed. However, it’s been almost two years since “A Milli” made it’s game-changing impact andBang says the New Orleans MC has still never uttered a ‘Thank you’ his way.

“This industry is a devilish game. And these are devils controlling the game,” says Bangladesh who swears by self-rule. “I don’t wanna be caught up in it. I don’t wanna break bred with devils.”

I hope Birdman sorts out this mess, because these lawsuits are the last things Wayne needs while inside bars.

If you ask me, this fucker sounds like a whiney little bitch. This guy clearly thinks he the fuckin bee’s knees, meanwhile he didn’t do shit. Wayne got famous for the song, yeah partly cause the beat is catchy and what not, but its mostly the fuckin shit that he says on it.

This guy is an ignorant fool, who only cares about himself. He waits over 2 fuckin years before he wants to sue, then says how he can CREATE A LIL WAYNE? LOLLLL buddy, then go do it…

If you’re so concerned about money and whatnot, then create a Lil Wayne you fuckin douche, cause incase you are out of the loop — Wayne’s worth millions.

God, some people are a piece of fuckin work…

I find it hilarious that Wayne gets sued for like 40% of all the songs on the Carter 3… People hate to see other people succeed..
