Rapper Lil Kim Sued by Recording Company

The rapper Lil Kim is being sued by a recording company called Brookland Media for $2.5 million. The company states that she hasn’t delivered all of the recordings that their contract requires and they have already spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on recordings, equipment, and advanced payments after contracting the rapper this year. Court papers state that Lil Kim tried to change the contract and refused to continue recording unless the company agreed. Brookland Media wants the court to declare the contract as valid and wants to bar her from recording for another company.
