Megan Thee Stallion's been at odds with her label 1501 Certified Entertainment and Carl Crawford over the past week or so. Although claims that Crawford was trying to prevent her from releasing new music became a prominent focus of this case, a judge granted Meg a temporary restraining order against 1501 Certified Entertainment that would allow her to move forward with the release of her new project.

According to Complex, she's earned herself a small W in the courtroom after Judge Robert K. Schaffer ordered an extension of the restraining order. At this point, it's unclear how long the extension but that will be determined in the same week the judge determines whether this case should go through arbitration. Crawford recently filed a motion pushing for the matter to be dealt with privately on claims that their contractual agreement includes any sort of disputes surrounding the contract be dealt with in arbitration. 

"Defendants reading of the contract is unreasonable," Megan's team responded in court documents. "Defendants' demand for arbitration does not preclude [Megan] from proceeding in state court."

Even though Megan Thee Stallion received an extension, there's no sign whether she plans on releasing new music anytime soon. After all, she is fresh off of the release of her new project SUGA which marks her first EP since 2019's Fever. She did, however, recently team up with Tyga for their new collab, "Freak."

Megan Thee Stallion has already scored a major win after filing a lawsuit against her record label, 1501 Entertainment. Over the weekend, she claimed that she's blocked from releasing music following a request to renegotiate her contract with Carl Crawford, the head honcho of 1501 Certified Entertainment. TMZ reports that a restraining order was granted towards Megan Thee Stallion against her record label that would allow her to release music as planned. 

In the lawsuit, Megan Thee Stallion details some of the terms of their agreement including the payment methods. 1501 apparently gets 60% of her recording income while Meg's left with 40% which also has to go towards paying off engineers, featured artists, and other fees related to her career. Ultimately, she's making the majority of her money from touring which apparently is supposed to be paid straight to the label. Although 1501 said that they were going to give her proper accounting, Megan said that was never done and "purposefully and deceptively vague."

This story extends deep into the roots of Houston's hip-hop's scene since Meg also said Crawford's used his connection to J. Prince to strong-arm producers. "Prince is notorious in the industry for strong-armed intimidation tactics, and the comment was taken as a physical threat of harm," she said in the suit. She even suggested that Prince may have been behind an online smear campaign including the mugshot photo that surfaced.

"We are very happy the Court granted our [temporary restraining order] and thrilled that the world should be able to now hear Megan's new music on March 6," Richard Busche, Meg's attorney, said. "We will now proceed with the other claims set forth in the [lawsuit]."

Apparently, Meg only got a $10K advance on the deal when she signed it at 20-years-old. She's suing Crawford and the label for $1M in damages.
