So what is an album in this context?
According to Meg, an album is a 45-minute music project.
According to 1501 Certified Entertainment,Something for Thee Hottiesis not album enough, relegating it to mixtape status.
We will ask the court to protect Megan from this key in of abuse.
How many lawsuits are there?
Four, so far.
Megan took her troubles to Instagram Live.
When I signed, I didnt really know what was in my contract.
I think I was, like, 20, she said.
The performer claims that after signing with Roc Nation, the agency told her the contract was iffy.
She decided to renegotiate with 1501, which led the label to bar her from releasing new music.
But 1501 countersued Megan on March 21 by claimingSomethingis not an album.
She also claimed that Crawford added his jewelry and chains to an expense report.
And there is even more back-and-forth between Megan and Crawford going down on social media.
Your team signed off on SOMETHING FOR THE HOTTIES to count as an ALBUM now its not?
u havent paid for 1 show since 2019 hiding behind#Rocnation, the label added.
1501 also dismissedSomethingas a bullshit ass mix tape.
Megans gripes with 1501 are not an isolated incident.
The same shit Megan went through, I was going through, he said.
Vulture reached out to 1501 Certified Entertainment for comment.
1501 has not responded at the time of publishing.
T. Farris also introduced singer Railey Rose to the label.
I was never given a true advance.
Banks signed with 1501 afterturning down deals with DaBaby, Atlantic Records, and Capitol Records.
Banks has not publicly mentioned any issues with 1501 at this time.
Whats next for Megan Thee Stallion and 1501?
The ensuing legal clash rages on as Megan and 1501s Crawford decide what constitutes an album in court.
Meg released the trackSweetest Pie,a collaboration with Dua Lipa, on March 11.
Thank you hotties for rocking with me through the bullshit WE ALMOST OUT, she also posted.
Could Meg finally be free of 1501 Entertainment and Crawford?
Carl be so mf mad, she tweeted later.

She has hired investigators to track the leaks source, the filing says.
That amount covers the royalties Megan claims 1501 has yet to pay.
1501 attorney Zager replied that Megan added damages to the lawsuit for the impact.
The label disputes the claim that it leakedTraumazine.
I dont even think my guys would know how to leak it, ZagertoldRolling Stone.
Nor can I think of a motive.
