Meanwhile, Chance The Rapper is currently caught up in a lawsuit with his former manager. As revealed over the weekend, Pat Corcoran – aka Pat The Manager – is suing the Chicago rapper for $3million (£2.2m) in unpaid commissions. In response to the suit, Chance’s team say they are “grossly offended” by the accusations.
Corcoran alleged in the suit that the rapper ignored his advice regarding the timing of releasing his debut album ‘The Big Day’, and then fired him after the 2019 record failed to light up the charts.a
“Mr. Corcoran has filed a suit for allegedly unpaid commissions,” a representative for the rapper told Pitchfork in response. “In fact, Mr. Corcoran has been paid all of the commissions to which he is legally entitled.
Jeremih, meanwhile, has been released from hospital this week following a battle with Covid-19. The singer and rapper was admitted to intensive care last month with Covid-19, before being released from ICU on November 21.
“THANK GOD I’M STILL HERE,” he wrote yesterday (December 9) in his first social media post since he was discharged from hospital.
