Damon Dash is suing the lawyer he holds responsible for mishandling his contract with Curren$y for $5 million.
Damon Dash and Curren$y had agreed in principles to a deal that would have Spitta dropping three albums for Dash. Eventually, the relationship disintegrated, and Curren$y took his talents elsewhere, and Dame still released some of his records. This resulted in Curren$y suing him for $1.5 million, but then later rescinded the lawsuit.Â
Now Damon Dash is suing the lawyer he blames for mishandling Curren$y’s contract, which ultimately led to losing the artist altogether. The lawsuit is being filed by Damon Dash’s company DD172 and BluRoc Records,  against Dash’s former attorney, Janis Shen. Â
The suit claims, via AHH, Shen failed to complete the necessary paperwork to finalize an oral agreement between Dash and Curren$y which resulted in the rapper taking his albums over to Warner Music Group.  This not only effected his relationship with the Stoned Immaculate rapper but cost Dash a distribution deal with Island/Def Jam, and as a result he lost out on having MMG’s Stalley.Â
Janis Shen is being sued by Dash and his company for $5 million in damages as well as lawyer and court fees.
