It seems that Yung Joc, who’s raked in millions of dollars for Bad Boy Records and Block Entertainment, has had his share in dealing with shady business practices of the music industry, particularly with Block Ent.Shady business deals, missing budgets, and now rumors of company financial hardships.
Block Entertainment’s number one artist has been noticeably absent from the roster for at least a year. There have been industry whispers going around that there was inner turmoil inside the record label, particularly between Joc and Block. A couple of weeks ago the newest rumor was that Joc was leaving Block Entertainment all together and had decided to make the full move over to Bad Boy Records, but it looks like Bad Boy records is playing games with Joc too, so now Joc’s taking everybody to court.
Joc alleges that due to contractual situations, unpaid royalties and unpaid advances that he and is legal team is currently in the process of taking legal action against his record label.
The multi-platinum rap star alleges that Block Ent. & Bad Boy Records hasn’t offered any label support since 2007. Yung Joc went on to make shocking claims about the inner dealings of Block Ent.
According to Joc, he’s paid for his own public relations, claims to not be receiving his advance money for his projects, alleges that Block has used advances for other projects, and even makes shocking claims regarding his former management company 9196.
Joc quickly broke down his reasons for splitting with his former mgmt company, which happened to be owned by Big Block, but is fronted by CEO Rico Brooks. Joc breaks down the situation by saying that it was nothing more then a 360 deal , that resulted in Block getting a piece of everything Joc does.
Big Block charged other record companies $25,000. to clear Joc for a record? That explains why we haven’t seen Joc in any video’s recently. Joc shared tails of Block’s ‘Suge Knight" type actions that’s prevented Joc from being cleared to do other music projects, with other artist outside of Bad Boy and Block Ent.
Joc is currently being legally represented by Londell Mcmillian and Nova Perry.
Joc’s currently hard at work on his newest project “Mr Robinson’s Neighborhood”. Joc has re-teamed up with producer Nitti.
