(AllHipHop News) Rap mogul Damon Dash has filed a $5 million lawsuit against a former attorney, claiming she ruined a high-profile distribution deal with rapper Curren$y.

According to reports, Dame Dash’s company DD172 and BluRoc Records, have filed a lawsuit against Janis Shen last week in Manhattan Federal Court.

The lawsuit claims that Janice Shen failed to complete the contractual paperwork for an oral agreement Dame Dash had with Curren$y, resulting in the loss of the artist altogether, as well as several other upcoming acts.

Curren$y was supposed to create three albums with Damon Dash, including Muscle Car Chronicles and Pilot Talk I and II.

But Dame Dash claims that the lawyer he hired failed to create the necessary contract, resulting in  Curren$y taking his albums to Warner Music Group.

The move also cost Damon Dash his distribution deal with Island/Def Jam, according to the lawsuit, which also resulted in the loss of recording artist Stalley.

In addition to $5 million worth of damages, Dane – is also seeking lawyer fees and court costs.

Hip-Hop Rumors: Chris Brown Fails Drug Test – Was It A “Molly” Or That Ganja That Did Him In?

I don’t know how they kept this under wraps for so long, but back in June, Breezy failed a drug test in his home state of Virginia. He had a probation hearing in L.A. yesterday, which has his #teambreezy crew tweeting him messages of good luck. Rihanna sent him one of those “good luck” tweets, and if you were wondering the status of these two, Rihanna calls him “baby” in one of the tweets. Check out her tweets below:

Alrighty, then. These two obviously started following each other on twitter again, and Rihanna liked a picture one of her fans photo shopped of her kissing Chris Brown. Brown, on the other hand, has not been seen with his girlfriend Karreuche for a number of days, although she still is constantly accompanied by Breezy’s security. You know, in case she runs into any crazy Rihanna fans.

Because of the positive drug test, Chris Brown’s probation was on the verge of getting cut. Judge Patricia Schnegg decided not to revoke his probation because Breezy owned up to it. So what was the drug? It was marijauna. Breezy says that he smoked while in California, where the drug is legal with a prescription.

It turns out, drug testing was never a part of his probation to begin with.

Chris Brown’s , “Don’t Judge Me” video is set to drop later this week.
