Rapper Curren$y (born Shante Scott Franklin) is suing co-founder of Roc-A-Fella and former friend of Jay-Z, Dame Dash for $1.5 million for releasing his music without permission nor was he compensated.

According to TMZ, Curren$y and Dame tried to negotiate an agreement to release music together in 2010, but the deal never went through. In 2010, Dame released two Curren$y albums but they didn’t couldn’t come to an agreement. Since they couldn’t get on the same page, Curren$y decided to signed with Warner Bros. in January 2011.

But according to the lawsuit, Damon was unmoved —and CONTINUED to release Curren$y’s music despite the new WB contract, which gave WB exclusive rights to Curren$y’s jams.

Now, Curren$y is demanding the producer quit profiting off him in any way. Curren$y also wants $1.5 million in damages.

But Damon fired back at the accusations with his own response —claiming, he has the right to release the albums in question because he was given permission. What’s more —Damon says Curren$y stabbed him in the back, reneging on his agreement with Damon and signing with WB instead.

Crazy. A judge has yet to rule in this case but who do you think will win?
