Prodigy's family struggles financially ?
« on: March 31, 2009, 02:08:56 AM »
A Queens-bred rapper is suing a Manhattan music company from behind bars for allegedly failing to pay him more than $30,000 and plunging his family into foreclosure.

Albert Johnson, a k a Prodigy of the rap band Mobb Deep, says the Vox Music Group agreed in August 2007 to pay him $10,300 a month but that it has missed three payments and failed to give him a semiannual royalty accounting statement.

"These breaches . . . have put Prodigy's family in financial peril," say documents filed last Monday in Manhattan Supreme Court.

Prodigy, who suffers from sickle-cell anemia and is serving a 3½-year term for gun possession, is also asking that the agreement be terminated.

Not for solo shit. If 30,000 is what makes or breaks Prodigy, he's a fucking idiot though. Seriously he's been in the game for over a decade, he should have alotta cash and assets built up
