Wiz Khalifa Suing Former Manager & Record Label for $1M




Wiz Khalifa filed a lawsuit against his former manager, Benjy Grinberg, and Grinberg's label Rostrum Records that aims to terminate a 360 deal he signed at the beginning of his rap career, according to Variety. The lawsuit claims that Grinberg, who is the founder and president of Rostrum Records, profited off self-dealing.

Khalifa signed to Grinberg and Rostrum in 2004 when he was 16. His lawsuit claims that both parties "induced" Khalifa into the agreement that “reached for more than a decade into virtually every aspect” of his professional life instead of disclosing alternative agreements that could have been more beneficial and in Khalifa's best interest.
