Gun chargers against rapper Bobby Shmurda have been dropped, but that’s not the end of his legal woes. Now he’s being served papers for not only cancelling shows, but also allegedly not paying his management. The worst part about it is that his uncle is behind all of this — yes, the uncle that the rapper accused of stealing his money.

Bobby Shmurda’s record exec uncle is taking the heat for the rapper’s no-show shenanigans at performances and now he’s demanding Shmurda pay up, Bossip has learned.
Shmurda’s uncle Debo Wilson, the co-CEO of Hard Tymes Records, has served Shmurda with legal papers seeking $1 million through arbitration, because Wilson hasn’t been paid since the summer and has been left liable for Shmurda’s habit of canceling shows, sources told Bossip.
“The reason why Bobby’s uncle is suing is because the promoters are trying to sue him,” Wilson’s former business partner told Bossip exclusively. “He doesn’t have the money. Bobby has the money.”
Shmurda is still under contract with Wilson, and Bobby hasn’t paid him since August, according to the source, who asked that his name not be used. The “Hot Ni**a” rapper was served the legal papers last month at the protective custody unit on Rikers Island, where he’s being held on felony gun possession, conspiracy and drug charges.
Dang! So did he just want to bail Bobby Shmurda out so he can sue him? Sidenote, I’ve heard that there are a few lawsuits in the works due to Shmurda pulling a no-show at events. Shmurda blamed janky management and even went on a Twitter rant encouraging people to book directly through him.
