Tupac's Mother Afeni Shakur Sues Entertainment One for $1.1 Million in Unpaid Royalties

Tupac's mother Afeni Shakur is suing Entertainment One for owing $1.1 million in unpaid royalties.

According to TMZ, Afeni filed a lawsuit against E1 Music – formally known as Koch – for breach of contract. The company purchased the rights to the late-rapper's music, and later released a Tupac album in June of 2007 called Beginnings: The Lost Tapes 1988–1991. However, Afeni claims they have yet to pay off the royalties to Tupac's estate, which is where the $1.1 million comes into play.

Afeni Shakur is also seeking to obtain the master recordings of all Tupac's unreleased music from Entertainment One.
