Baton Rogue, Louisiana rappers Webbie and Lil' Boosie have been hit with a $1 million dollar lawsuit by a local a promoter who alleges they failed to perform at a concert in January.

 

The lawsuit claims the Lil Boosie, born Torrance Hatch and Webbie, born Webster Gradney Jr., were hired by Tracye Stafford of Ikon Entertainment to perform at Club Sonar on January 20, but they failed to show up to the concert to perform.

 

Stafford claims that after the failed concert on January 20, Ikon Entertainment, Lil Boosie and Webbie agreed to reschedule the event, but the rappers failed to show up again.

 

Stafford seeks $1 million for direct and consequential damages, expenses, attorney's fees, plus interest and costs.

 

The lawsuit also names Trill and Asylum Records as defendants.

 

Lil' Boosie and Webbie are known for hits like “Wipe Me Down,” “Bad Bitch” and “Zoom.”

 

Both rappers are artists on Trill Entertainment, which is owned by UGK group member Pimp C.

No wonder why Webbie calls himself a thug with the name Webster Graney Jr;  He had to do something about that.  Constant ass beatings from kindergarten to 5th grade.

Peace and more hair grease,

How are you gonna sue when Boosie has said from day 1 that you can book him for 10 g's, and Webbie comes with that. So, let's say you missed one show, and rescheduled, I imagine that your cost would be cut down to somewhere in the $7,500 or less range. You're gonna sue for 1 million big ones over not even 10% of that? Homeboy gonna get $30,000 and a Pimp C at his front door haha

of your music all one 1 laptop?

Yall niggas gay, yall dont know how much money they got..Just realize they got more than you! Yall niggas cant wait to hate on someone...Like dude said if this was yall fav rapper yall would care.. AND HATER HURTER IS 100% right.   But they cant homie.. It takes more energy not to hate. Its their Job.
These niggas arent my Fav Rappers But The promoter got life fucked up.. But he just using the system  we live in the home of the lawsuits.

1 million for one missed concert he probably wouldnt of even made  a 3rd of that. But he can add a lot of other shit just to make his law suit seem legit.

OFF TOPIC BUT NECESSARY:

STAND BLACK PEOPLE STAND. I HAD BEEN IN JENA FOR OVER 2 WEEKS. IT'S FUCKED UP. GRAFH TELLS IT LIKE IT IS. HE LEFT OUT A FEW OTHER FACTS.


1. THE WHITE KID PULLED A SHOTGUN ON BELL, PURVIS AND ONE OTHER BLACK KID ABOUT 3 WEEKS BEFORE THE DECEMBER FIGHT AT SCHOOL. THEY DISARMED THIS WHITE KID AND TOOK THE SHOTGUN TO THE LOCAL SHERIFF. THE 3 BLACK KIDS ARE  NOW CHARGED WITH ROBBERY!!!!!!!!!!!!

2. THE FIGHT WHERE THE WHITE KID GOT HIS ASS WHIPPED, IT WAS A BRAWL IN THE CAFETERIA[DEC. 2006]. NOT JUST 6 ON 1. JUSTIN BARKER JUST GOT HIS ASS WHIPPED THE WORST BECAUSE HE IS THE ONE WHO STARTED THE SHIT, FROM THE START WITH THE NOOSES AND CONTINUOUSLY TARGETED BELL SIMPLY BECAUSE BARKER'S EX GIRLFRIEND [A WHITE GIRL] WANTS TO DATE MYCHAL BELL. BELL WAS ARRESTED AFTER THE CAFETERIA FIGHT AND HAS BEEN IN JAIL SINCE. HE WAS 16 THEN, HE IS NOW 17.

3. SINCE GRAFH SPOKE ON THIS THE ADULT CONVICTIONS WERE TOSSED OUT 9/14/07 BUT WE STILL RALLIED. THE DA HAS 2 WEEKS [9/28/07] TO CHARGE BELL AS A JUVENILE.

4. ON 9/20 THE DA AND JUDGE SAID THEY WERE RELEASING BELL THE NEXT DAY AT NOON. WE RAISED MORE THEN ENOUGH MONEY FOR HIS 9K BAIL AND ATTORNEY'S FEES OF OVER $650K.

5. 0N 9/21 THE JUDGE IN JENA DENIED BELL'S RELEASE AND REVOKED HIS BOND. BELL STILL SITS IN JAIL NOW ON OTHER CHARGES LIKE THE ROBBERY, I MENTIONED ABOVE. ASSAULT [VERBAL] FOR CALLING JUSTIN BARKER A HONKY, AFTER BARKER CALLS HIM A NIGGER.

STAND UP MY PEOPLE. THIS IS WHAT WE FACE IN THIS AMERICA.

LAND OF THE FREE, HOME OF THE BRAVE?

WE'RE BRAVE BUT WE ARE NOT FREE.

INJUSTICE ANYWHERE, IS A THREAT TO JUSTICE, EVERYWHERE.

GET INVOLVED OR YOU ARE GOING TO BE NEXT! I GUARANTEE IT.

@Whoever said either one of these niggas went platinum, You gotta be shittin me. I copped the Webbie album and it was cool It got alotta play in my deck, but he didn't do no damn platinum. I won't even start talkin bout Boosie cause I ain't got shit nice to say. All I do know is that I promote concerts and in 2005 we paid Webbie 10 grand to come perform and that was in his prime. Anyone goin Platinum is not performin for that cheap. And to top it all off his bitch ass didn't show up, so he didn't get paid. So I have personal business reasons not to like these cats, I wouldn't give Boosie 10 dollars to perform, But I'll give Webbie his props I ain't a hater.
