Megan Thee Stallion record label is allegedly trying to block the rap artist from releasing new music but just shared with her fans that her album Suga will be out this Friday (March 6).
The eight-track project is set to include her single “B.I.T.C.H.,” as well as collaborations with Kehlani and Gunna. Check out the Suga cover and tracklist below.
According to documents obtained by TMZ, Megan Thee Stallion claimed that her label 1501 Certified Entertainment was preventing her from releasing new music. She then filed a lawsuit against 1501 to get out of her contract. After filing her suit, Meg was granted a temporary restraining order (TRO) from a district judge in Harris County, Texas, which allows her to release new music.
Yesterday, 1501 and its founder/CEO Carl Crawford filed an emergency motion to dissolve the TRO, confirmed via court records. In the motion, lawyers for 1501 and Crawford argue that Megan Thee Stallion’s distribution agreement with 1501 and 300 Entertainment grants the labels “the right to set and approve release dates for” her music, and that the Houston rapper “can assert no such rights under either Agreement.”
In addition, the lawyers argue that the TRO should be dismissed because Meg did not notify 1501 and Crawford about the initial TRO request.
There has clearly been a sense of miscommunication in this situation. Once both parties review the contract together, listen to each other, and come to a resolution that would make both parties happy — then we can be happy once we hear this new Meg music drop. Yes!!
Look out for Suga this Friday!
