Mary J. Blige Lawsuit: Misa Hylton’s Lawyer Explains Drama

Mary J. Blige has been making waves on her ‘For My Fans Tour,’ but if her former friend Misa Hylton gets her way, the Queen of Hip-Hop/Soul will be making her way to court.

As reported, the stylist-turned-music manager has filed a jaw-dropping $5 million lawsuit against Blige, and it centers on a fallout regarding rapper Vado.

Signed to MJB’s label, the MC was reportedly managed by Hylton. However, she says what was once a smooth sailing ship encountered rocky waters when the singer allegedly began to ice her out.

Now, in the wake of the filing, her attorney is speaking up and out.

Full details below…

According to Hylton’s legal rep, Nicholas Ramcharitar, the lawsuit was a last resort.

For, Hylton had reportedly been attempting to pin down Blige to hash out their differences, to no avail.

Ramcharitar told All Hip-Hop:

“Ms. Hylton did not want this to become a public matter. She exhausted every avenue before resorting to the courts.”

He continued:

“This wasn’t Misa’s first move—it was her last resort. She tried calls, texts, even letters. Nothing.”

Listen to the interview:

Sources say things went south after a final girls’ trip to the Amalfi Coast. Since then? Crickets.

Blige has yet to respond publicly. However, she did share a telling tweet on X.
