The first shot in Lil Wayne's legal battle to get out of his Cash Money Records contract has been fired.
TMZ reports that as promised Wayne has filed a lawsuit claiming breach of contract. The suit claims that Cash Money violated the deal in three ways.
1. Not paying Wayne an $8 million advance when he began recording Tha Carter V in December 2013.
2. Failing to pay Wayne an additional $2 million upon completion of the album a year later.
3. Refusing to release the album.
Wayne says he hasn't received a dime of what's owed to him. He's asking a judge to award him $51 million, release him from his contract and declare that he's the joint copyright holder of all the artist recordings under his Young Money label. That would include the works of Tyga, Nicki Minaj, Drake and all other acts he signed.
Birdman's reason for not releasing Tha Carter V has been that he believes there is more behind the scenes work that needs to be done first.
Sources close to Wayne told TMZ that at this point the only way it will be released is if he is paid what he's due.

After a legal battle with Tamika Fuller, the mother of his one-year old daughter, Cai, Ludacris has been granted primary physical custody of the child.
TMZ reports that Fuller attempted to throw up roadblocks claiming Luda, real name Christopher Bridges, didn't want her to have the baby when he found out she was pregnant and offered her $10,000 to have an abortion.
The decision was handed down Monday, January 27, after a family court judge weighed all of the testimony and a report by an independent expert, ultimately deciding to grant Ludacris' request custody.
"After review of all the evidence, the testimony of the witnesses, the report of the guardian ad litem, and the claims made throughout this entire case, I am gratified that the judge found me to be the most fit and proper parent to have primary physical custody of our beautiful daughter," the 37-year old entertainer told PEOPLE.
Luda also has a 13-year old daughter, Karma, from a previous relationship.
The last couple of months have been a whirlwind for the rapper. In December he married longtime girlfriend Eudoxie Mbouguiyengue and released his Burning Bridges EP. The next few months promise to be just as hectic as he releases his long awaited Ludaversal album on March 31. That will be followed closely by the nationwide opening of the seventh installment of the Fast and Furious movie franchise on April 3.

Dr. Dre is a perfectionist with a keen eye for talent. When he gives his stamp of approval and devotes studio time to an artist the results are generally mind blowing.
50 Cent, Eminem, Snoop Dogg Kendrick Lamar, Xzibit and The D.O.C. can all attribute a big part of their success to Dre.
The super producer just signed 23-year old rapper Justin Mohrle a.k.a. JT to his Aftermath label. Will he be the next to blow?
Dre was impressed by JT's demo tape. The young rapper has now moved out to California to work with the hit maker full time. Mohrle realizes that this is his shot at superstardom.
“With the situation I’m in, Dre could decide to drop a track tomorrow, and then I might not be able to ever go to the mall again like this. Just us. By myself," he told D Magazine
The D.O.C. is responsible for bringing JT to Dre's attention. He gave the Compton legend the demo tape that got the ball rolling. He will also play an integral part in hopefully molding JT into a star.
“JT and I worked on a couple songs; Dre fell in love with the songs; Dre stole the songs from the kid, because he wanted to put them out as a unit,” The D.O.C. told D Magazine. “That’s the way this house is rolling. We’re all putting our energy toward building another classic for The Good Doctor. Then he’s going to take his time to help us build a classic for the youngster.”
Check out a couple of tracks from JT below.
What do you think of Dre's new protégé?

LOS ANGELES (Associated Press) — Funk legend Sly Stone was awarded $5 million on Tuesday in a breach-of-contract suit that claimed his business partners and his own company cheated him out of royalties.
A Los Angeles Superior Court jury ruled for the 71-year-old performer in his action against his ex-manager Gerald Goldstein, attorney Glenn Stone and Even St. Productions Ltd.
"It's a good day for Sly, it's a good day for entertainers in general," said one of his attorneys, Nicholas Hornberger. "This was an important verdict for people that are artists, entertainers, music composers, etc."
Stone, whose real name is Sylvester Stewart, led the group Sly and the Family Stone to a string of hits in the 1960s and early '70s including "Everyday People," ''Dance To The Music" and "Family Affair." But heavy drug use began to take a toll.
His lawyers say Stone's career was long eclipsed and he was destitute when Goldstein and Glenn Stone convinced him to become an employee of and co-owner of Even St. Productions with them in 1989.
Stone assigned royalty rights to the company and was supposed to receive some of the money it collected for him but Goldstein and Glenn Stone arranged to get it through shady accounting, Hornberger argued.
"They met him, they signed him up...but what they really wanted was his royalties," Hornberger said.
Gregory Bodell, the attorney for Goldstein and Glenn Stone, said the performer approached his clients to revitalize his career and promised to make comeback records that he never recorded.
His clients weren't seeking the performer's royalties because he didn't have any, in part because he owed millions to the Internal Revenue Service, Bodell said.
Sly Stone testified that he had not received any royalty payments between 1989 and 2000.
But Bodell said his clients helped to pay off the IRS, renegotiated royalty issues with record companies and over 20 years obtained millions of dollars in royalties for the performer — perhaps as much as $9 million.
Jurors assessed $2.5 million in damages against Even St. Productions, $2.45 million against Goldstein and $50,000 against Glenn Stone.
Bodell said the award will be challenged.
Even St. Productions filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2013. A message left for a lawyer representing the company was not immediately returned.
