Offset Hit With Federal Lawsuit Over Unpaid Producer

Offset’s in serious legal trouble. The Migos rapper just got slapped with a federal lawsuit from music producer Chase, who claims Offset used his song on a solo album without cutting a deal first. Yeah, you read that right—allegedly zero permission, zero payment.

According to court documents obtained by TMZ, the producer is demanding cash for the unauthorized track. The lawsuit accuses Offset of straight-up taking the beat and running with it on his project without ever hashing out a contract or compensation agreement with Chase.

This is exactly the kind of messy that happens when artists move fast and lawyers move slow. Using someone else’s work without permission? That’s how you end up in federal court looking real dumb.
