This is bizarre. How does the manager get swindled by the artist for the $$$? Isn’t it suppose to be the other way around? In this case the reason could be death threats. So it’s being reporting that Rick Ross is being sued by his manager for $1 million for services over a three year period.

Philadelphia based Respect Management, owned by attorney Kevon Glickman, filed the lawsuit yesterday (Apr. 10) in the United States District Court of Pennsylvania.

The lawsuit claims that Ross, born William Roberts, breached the three-year management agreement that he signed in 2004 by attempting to divert commissions due to Respect Management to his co-manager, Elric “E-Class” Prince.

The suit also alleges that Ross’ manager received a series of threats.

The lawsuit claims that through the use of “physical” and “mental” intimidation, “Roberts has demanded that management commissions due on his record and publishing contracts be paid by Def Jam and Sony to Elric “E-Class” Prince rather than to Respect as required by the agreement.”

Take a look at the picture up top. Does that look like a man that would threaten someone over some money? Umm.. nevermind.
