Big Boy has decided to take his talents from Los Angeles radio station Power 106 to iHeartMedia. To do so he must first get past a huge legal hurdle.
Emmis Radio, LLC is suing Big Boy, real name Kurt Alexander, for $5 million for breach of contract. They are also asking a judge to block the move.
According to Emmis, Big Boy was being paid $1.45 million a year, plus bonuses and a car. When his contract ended he brought Emmis a copy of iHeart's offer of $3.5 million annually plus benefits on January 16, 2015.
Emmis claims that their contract with Big Boy allowed them 60 days to match the offer, which they did. The radio personality told them he would be leaving anyway.
“Big Boy has been a beloved member of the Emmis family for more than two decades, and we are particularly dismayed by his breach after we agreed to meet the iHeart terms. I am personally saddened by his actions and the impact they will have on our brand and our people," said Emmis Chairman, President and CEO Jeff Smulyan in a statement.
"Emmis first discovered Alexander, 45, working as a body guard more than 20 years ago, and has invested substantially over the years in helping him develop into the star that he is today," reads a press release announcing the lawsuit.
We'll have to wait and see how this all shakes out.

A man in Scottsdale, Arizona has filed a battery report with police alleging Puff Daddy punched him at a Super Bowl party on Saturday, January 31.
Puffy was scheduled to host The Old Town Scottsdale Block Party at Scottsdale Nights. The business mogul didn't show up until 1:15 a.m.
Steven Donaldson paid $100 expecting to see Puffy perform, but he didn't. Instead the Bad Boy Records CEO hung out in the VIP section while his music played.
Donaldson got frustrated and started hurling insults at Puffy. "Fuck you for not performing tonight," he said at one point.
Eventually the two ended up in close proximity. Donaldson claims Puffy punched him in the face. Club security tossed Donaldson out of the venue. By the time police arrived Puffy was gone.
TMZ reports that the Scottsdale Police Department would like to talk to Puffy about the incident.

The boxing arm of Jay Z's Roc Nation Sports has suffered a significant loss.
RNS cut a deal in early January to acquire Gary Shaw Promotions and it's stable of fighters, including rising heavyweight contender Bryant Jennings.
"On January 8, Shaw announced “I have officially joined Roc Nation. I’ll be running their boxing division.”
The newly formed teamed promoted a January 9 card at the Theater at Madison Square Gardens. Troubles soon followed after infighting between the companies began. On Monday, February 2. Shaw announced the two companies had parted ways.
"We gave it a try and unfortunately it did not work out for both parties," Shaw told ESPN.com on Monday. "It is an amicable separation. Roc Nation was very professional at our meeting and they allowed me to keep all of my fighters and my company, and terminate any agreements we had together. They gave me back my company."
"Both parties decided to go their own way and we wish Gary nothing but the best," said Roc Nation Sports spokesman Ron Berkowitz.
GSP promoted fighters Jennings, interim lightweight titlist Darleys Perez, middleweight contender Tureano Johnson, lightweight Jonathan Maicelo, lightweight prospect Kenneth Sims Jr., welterweight Francisco Santana, unbeaten junior featherweight Roman Morales and former middleweight titlist Daniel Geale all leave with Shaw.

Suge Knight has been rushed to the hospital after complaining of chest pains Tuesday, February 3. Knight appeared in L.A. County Superior Court this morning where he pleaded not guilty to murder and attempted murder charges regarding two hit and runs in Compton that resulted in the death of his friend Terry Carter and injuries to actor and former Bloods gang member Cle "Bone" Sloan.
"It's too early to tell, but clearly from what I understand ... he was being attacked and trying to get away from that attack, no more than that," David Kenner, Knight's lawyer said outside of the courthouse.
Following his court appearance Knight complained of chest pains and was taken to a hospital where it was determined that the 48-year old had suffered a panic attack.
Because of his Knight's previous convictions this is a third strike case. He faces life in prison if convicted.

Columbus Short is back in the news again for all the wrong reasons.
Agostina Laneri, who is pregnant with the actor's child, claims he has been verbally abusive to her and hit her child because the kid "needed to learn," according to TMZ
She adds that Short once told her, "Don't forget who I am. I have a knife."
During one tirade the Stomp the Yard star allegedly threatened to kill one of Hollywood's elite.
"If I choose to kill one of these niggas ... I will do that," he said, according to Laneri. "I'm that crazy nigga that will be on the news as the nigga that murked [murdered] Jamie Foxx. Y'all should be very afraid. Very afraid."
Short has been ordered by a judge to stay at least 100 yards away from Laneri and her son.
This latest incident follows what seems to be a disturbing pattern for Short. In April 2014, his wife Tanee Short accused him of choking her, menacing her with a knife, threatening murder/suicide and slashing her tires when she tried to leave.
He was hit with a restraining order in that case as well. Tanee later filed for divorce. Short was subsequently fired from his role on the TV series Scandal..
