Timbaland and Swizz Beatz have sued Triller for $28million (£23m) over claims of non-payment after the recent sale of their popular VERZUZ series.VERZUZ is the popular entertainment series that pits producers, songwriters and artists against each other in a rap battle style format.Kicking off in March 2020 after Timbaland and Swizz Beatz issued challenges to one another, artists that have taken part so far have included T-Pain, Alicia Keys, John Legend, Brandy, Monica, Rick Ross, DMX, Snoop Dogg, D’Angelo and many more.Last year, the rights for the series were sold to Triller, who livestream the events on their app.In a new lawsuit seen by Billboard, Timbaland and Swizz Beatz claim that Triller owe them £23m and have been defaulting in previously agreed payments.The suit goes on to claim that while the pair received payments as planned in January and April 2021, a payment that was due in January of this year has still not arrived.A new payment plan was then reportedly agreed, but the money from that has still not come through.Speaking about VERZUZ previously to NME, Timbaland said: “Well, it’s not really a battle – it’s a celebration of our heroes in music, the ones who make us feel a certain type of way.

Given what’s currently going on in the world, it’s a way to give back.“It’s also an education, it’s educating people on the music, its creators and where this feeling comes from.”.
