Lil Mo Vs Ja Rule

08/17/05
. (Contact Music) R+B singer LIL' MO has announced plans to slap rapper JA RULE with a $15 million (GBP8.3 million) lawsuit in a battle over unpaid royalties [and who can claim the title of silliest stage name].

The singer says she's sent out letters of intent to sue to the rapper, Murder Inc Records and Def Jam for money she claims she's owed for her part in the 2001 hit song PUT IT ON ME.

She tells Allhiphop.com, "That (song) helped boost (Ja Rule's) career. That was a huge song. I helped make him an icon - so they have to pay.

"I had to search for the right lawyer that would take the case so they wouldn't have any ties to Murder Inc or Def Jam or anything to do with that song. I told the lawyer, 'It's not about the money, it's about the principle.'[see full story for more] - Click here for the Full Story
