James Prince (middle) has stepped into the Lil Wayne vs Birdman beef
Rap-A-Lot Records founder James Prince is stepping in to aid Lil Wayne in his stalled contract negotiations with Birdman and Cash Money Records.
Wayne filed a $51 million breach of contract lawsuit against Cash Money in January of 2015.
Prince also vowed to get money owed to his son, Jas Prince, for the deal he worked out with YMCMB after discovering Drake.
"Where [Wayne] is weak, I am strong. He has gained an ally, and together we will get back all money owed to him and my son off the Drake albums," Prince told TMZ.
Drake with Jas Prince
Jas discovered Drake on Myspace, then introduced him to Wayne. Part of the deal Drizzy signed with Young Money Records called for Jas to receive a portion of the profits generated from the "One Dance" hit maker's album sales.
Jas would eventually file a lawsuit claiming he had not been properly compensated financially. In February of 2015, he demanded that Cash Money Records, the parent company of Young Money Records, open their books and give a full accounting of the money Drake has generated for the label.
"I witnessed the hard work that went into Drake's career and for Cash Money to try and take something that isn't theirs to take, does not sit well with me and family around the world," James Prince explained to TMZ.
