Rapper Lil Wayne kept his
promise to go after Cash Money because he's filed a lawsuit asking a judge to
end his contract with Birdman's label.
According to the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, Wayne says Birdman and company violated the deal by withholding tens of millions of dollars Cash Money owes him for his long-delayed album, "Tha Carter V."

Wayne claims because Cash
Money is refusing to pay, he's entitled to walk.
But Lil Wayne wants more
than just a declaration of freedom. He's suing for $51 MILLION; and Wayne wants
the judge to declare he's the joint copyright owner of all Young Money recordings
which includes Drake, Nicki Minaj and several others.
Sources connected to Wayne
tell TMZ ... if Birdman antes up then he can release "Tha Carter V,"
but only if Wayne gets paid. Wayne says he was supposed to get an $8 million
advance when he began recording in December, 2013 and another 2M when he
completed the album a year later, but so far he's gotten nothing.
Dis pple no easy o, talking about some serious money men.
