Wu-Tang Album Lawsuit, Justin Timberlake Arrest, Young Thug’s Lawyer & More Music Law News


Wu-Tang lawsuit, Justin Timberlake arrest, Young Thug and more law news in the music industry, also including cases involving Drake and Lil Uzi Vert.

This week: Wu-Tang Clan’s one-of-a-kind album is at the center of a lawsuit against Martin Shkreli; Justin Timberlake faces a drunk driving charge; Young Thug’s lawyer avoids jail and demands that a judge recuse himself; Drake is sued by Members Only for trademark infringement; and much more. According to court records, Timberlake told police he “had one martini and I followed my friends home,” but his “eyes were bloodshot and glassy” and the officer smelled “a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage” before he failed a field sobriety test. Among other things, the lawsuit claims the bills involve satisfying the rapper’s “unrealistic production requests,” including finding and hiring more than two dozen adult dancers to appear onstage at a concert last year.
