Jas Prince has seemingly been having issues with Cash Money/Young Money ever since he handed his big money discovery, Drake, over to the label, and according to Lil Wayne's manager Cortez Bryant, Prince may have taken things a little too far in an effort to get paid.
Reportedly, Prince filed a lawsuit in an effort to receive royalties he claims he's owed on Drake's music. Jas claims Cash Money owes him a whopping $4 million and refuses to pay. Lil Wayne's label responded by saying they never had a deal with Prince and that the contract was signed by Aspire Music Group, the company Prince signed Drake to before passing him along to YMCMB. Prince then filed a lawsuit against Bryant, an exec at Aspire, claiming he purposefully screwed him over on the deal they signed with Cash Money in an effort to obtain Drake.
The Jasmine Brand has obtained Bryant's deposition for the case, where he says there was an original contract that all parties agreed upon and signed, but a year later Prince drafted a new deal that would entitle him to more money from the "Started From the Bottom" rapper's music. Bryant claims he only signed that contract because Jas forced him to at gunpoint. Bryant's lawyer says Cortez called him in fear for his life. The documents claim Jas Prince chased him around a table at gunpoint and threatened to kill him if he didn't sign the new agreement. His lawyer went on to say Bryant didn't call the cops because he feared for his life and he just signed the document for his own safety.
