God Sues Wu-Tang -- for $170K![/h2]

Oh, Lord! U-God, a current and performingmember of the Wu-Tang Clan is actually suing his own band's music label, alleging that they owe him $170,000. Protect ya wallet!

In papers filed in District Court in New York, U-God(real name: Lamont Hawkins) says that Wu Music -- which is licensed to Universal Music -- owes him the loot for a variety of his god-given hip-hop servicesrendered, including a tour, albums, and a European record contract, all arranged starting in March 2007.

U-God has feuded with the Wu before, leaving the band in 2004 over a reported dispute with bandmate The RZA. He's since rejoined, and oddly enough, thegroup will be performing tomorrow night in New York City. Wu-Tang's lawyer did not return a call for comment.

RZA has always been said to be a shady dude with his business dealings.

nah they got 4th disciple, true master, etc who makin old school wu tang beats still nothing experimental so wu can still survive without rza.

i seriously think rza should just drop out of wu tang because nothing good will come out of it if he stays

I must always root for the under dogg when it comes down to wu cause to me u-god and cappa are top 5 in the whole shabang.

If you look on rza's myspace he doesn't even have u-god on his friends list. Lol, kinda ironic, or at least somthing personal from what it seems now.

thats wild...lol

 

[send one]

U-god of all ppl should chill. He lucky they even let him get on in the first place. I'm sure he ate well of Wu money. Noone else would have ever given himthat chance.

 

[tw3ek]

^that could b said about ANY artist...

[x Buddha Bless x]

This lets me know even more the assurdity of a Wu Tang Vs. Shaolin album where Rza isn't executive producer and/or having a lot of beats on it.

 

[memphisboi55]

wu tag is dying!

 

[ratheruniqueb]

Speaking of U-God anyone seen that dvd Rise of A Fallen Soldier from 04 I think? (got it for 3 bucks at wal-mart

) he speaks on rza and the wu and all that...

 

[baller mayo]

say word? U-god is gonna SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU ? lol im mad corny

 

[fenixconnexion]

aw man U-God is still sick and all (even tho hes my least fav member) but hes always running into problems... On a side note, I still need G.A.R. tho...
