Poor Diddy just can’t seem to get a break! He’s got people suing him left and right, penning tell-all books and recording diss songs about him. Now, Yung Joc is beefing with his ass! The ATL rapper is beefing with Diddy over money. Apparently, Yung Joc wants the money he believes he is owed and is planning to file a lawsuit against Bad Boy Records and Block Entertainment for a bunch of contractual discrepancies, including failure to pay royalties and advances for his first two albums and charging “outrageous clearance fees” for his collaborations with other artists. He tells Billboard,

“I haven’t been paid any royalties since I’ve been out, after over a million albums sold. For my first album, they gave me a $25,000 advance when I was supposed to get more…Then I had a million dollar budget for my second album, never even got an advance off of it. For the third one they hit me with another $25,000, like I’m some chump in this shit. And I just got tired of it”.

Although Yung Joc claims that his beef is mainly with Block Entertainment, he is also mad at Bad Boy over their lack of support. He adds,

“Diddy said he’s got to stay out of it because it’s between me and Block Entertainment. I was never signed to Block Entertainment, but they’ve been interfering with a lot of my business. I feel like [Bad Boy] isn’t doing anything to try to intervene and help the situation”.

Despite not being paid, Yung Joc is currently working on his third album, “Mr. Robinson’s Neighborhood” which he plans to release by the end of this year with or without Bad Boy’s help. He closes,

“I’m not gonna let anybody slow me down. I’m just gonna go in and use some independent record promoters to promote my record. I’m not even griping; I’m just letting it be known that what’s fair is fair, and I haven’t been treated fairly. I’ve been fighting for a year and a half. I’m prepared to weather the storm. So they could kiss my ass, and let’s go to court.”

When will people realize that signing with Bad Boy Records is like selling their souls to the devil?! Diddy doesn’t care about his artists, he’s a businessman. Dude makes money off of people and then cuts them loose! DUH!

***UPDATE***

We’ve received an official statement from Diddy’s mouthpiece stating,

“Yung Joc’s dispute is with his production company Block Entertainment, not Bad Boy Records. Bad Boy has worked with counsel for both Joc and Block in an effort to mediate their dispute, but it appears that these parties are still unable to resolve their differences. Bad Boy values its lengthy association with both Block Entertainment and Joc, and remains hopeful that these parties will resolve their internal dispute and get back to the business of making great music.”
