Hot Boy member Turk is taking legal action after being dropped from the Cash Money Records 30th Anniversary Tour. The New Orleans rapper, born Tab Virgil Jr., was accused of being a “security risk,” despite performing alongside his former labelmates in a celebration of the label’s three-decade legacy several times.

Turk has broken his silence, alleging that he was kicked off the tour under false pretenses after refusing to accept less money for his remaining appearances on the tour. On Sunday, July 27, Turk addressed the situation in an Instagram post, announcing that his legal team had already taken action.

“My legal team has officially filed a Cease & Desist against Andrew Ellington, Dope Shows, and all parties involved in the recent false narratives and drama surrounding Hot Boy Turk,” read the caption.

Turk alleges that the “security risk” was a cover-up for a financial dispute behind the scenes. He says the issue arose when he refused to accept a reduced payment from what was agreed upon in his signed contract.
