2 Chainz Sued For Breaking Non-Compete

Rockmo Entertainment’s lawyer Jerry Caldwell claims the organization paid 2 Chainz $60,000 to perform at Wild Bill’s nightclub and that the rapper was forbidden from performing or marketing in the city two weeks before the May 2013 event. But 2 Chainz apparently had trouble sticking to the deal, and played a radio show at the city’s Mansion Elan the same night Rockmo had booked him for, the suit says.

“Mr. Epps and his team blatantly violated a very basic obligation of my client’s agreement,” Caldwell told HipHopWired.com in a statement.

“Rockmo Entertainment fulfilled all of its contractual obligations including, but not limited to, paying 2 Chainz $60,000. “As a result of all of the Defendants’ bad faith and willful disregard for 2 Chainz’s contractual obligations with Rockmo Entertainment, my client has suffered extreme financial damages and irreparable harm to its professional representation. At the end of the day, everyone made money at the expense of my client.”

Rockmo’s suit is seeking $1.5 million in compensatory and punitive damages.
