August 25, (THEWILL) – Offset is suing his former label, ‘Quality Control’, over his solo career. While Migos continue to dodge rumours of their split, group member, Offset, is not hiding his quest to go solo.
Offset has filed court documents, accusing Quality Control of ignoring a deal they made in January 2021. The suit filed on Tuesday, states that he negotiated his solo deal and “paid handsomely” for his artiste rights, but now that he’s released a new single, ‘Quality Control’ isn’t honouring the deal.
Offset claims that ‘Quality Control’ tried to claim his new single ‘54321’, produced by Baby Keem, an action he describes as “hostile.”
As he plans to release another song titled ‘Code’ with Moneybagg this Friday, Offset took to Twitter to call out ‘Quality Control’ label boss P, tweeting “Niggas act like I’m the problem I paid millions to get my rights back. Nigga you blackballed me I ain’t said shit one-time homie I ain’t spoke to you in 2 years now I drop and you want ya name on my credit?”
Meanwhile, P fired back at the lawsuit bringing up a similar suit filed in late 2020, tweeting “the last lawsuit was filed publicly and dismissed quietly.” He also suggested that Offset may have caused issues that led Quavo and Takeoff to release music as a duo. “Let’s see how this one goes. Been too real for all this lame shit. Everyone knows the real problem,” he added before teasing the release of new albums from other ‘Quality Control’ signees.
Quavo and Takeoff started putting out music as “Unc & Phew” earlier this year, which led to break-up speculations regarding the Migos.
