Baller Alert Its A Lifestyle
Lil’ Jon has threatened to sue Live Nation after it was announced that there would be a second edition of The Lovers and Friends Festival.
Earlier this week, Live Nation received a letter from Jon’s legal team stating he wanted to be paid for using the name of his hit 2004 single.
The rapper, producer, and DJ reportedly started discussions with Live Nation last year after headlining the festival with Ludacris and Usher.
Doug Davis, the lawyer who initiated the conversation, apparently didn’t want to put the 2022 show in jeopardy since it had to be rescheduled.
According to reports, there have been attempts to agree on using the “Lovers & Friends” name. Still, the rapper’s lawyer, Ed McPherson, argued that even though his client’s song was a remake of Michael Sterling’s 1991 song, fans are most familiar with Lil Jon’s version.
Lil Jon is reportedly seeking to resolve the situation outside of court, despite the most recent efforts of his lawyers.
