After his head was pushed by a fan during a night out in Dubai, Drake has now learned that it’s his pockets that may be pushed and pressed for cash after he decided to disown a movie he agreed to release before his rise to superstardom.

Broken promises below…

Billboard reveals:

After publicly disowning Drake’s Homecoming: The Lost Footage on Twitter, Drake was sued Wednesday (March 18) by SpectiCast, the company distributing the film, a spokeswoman confirmed to Billboard.

Drake took to Twitter on Monday to let fans know that he doesn’t support the film, which will be released in theaters for one night only on Thursday.

The film features a 23-year-old Drake performing at Toronto’s Sound Academy in 2009. The Los Angeles Times reported earlier this week that Drake agreed to let the concert be filmed back in ’09 and was paid $15,000 and promised a 15% royalty if the footage was ever used. One of the film’s co-executive producers, Mark Berry, told The Times he thinks Drake is lashing out at the film because he thinks he deserves a larger cut.

In Wednesday’s lawsuit, SpectiCast — the film’s distrubutor — claims Drake only spoke out about the film to draw attention to his Twitter page and promote his upcoming OVO Fest.

 

His fresh legal drama emerges after fans learned that an ongoing battle with his bosses at the Cash Money music company was to thank for his latest mixtape turning into his latest album.
