- Interscope separately seeks $50 million over an album commitment.

## Summary

LVRN has countersued Summer Walker, alleging that she breached their 2017 contract by withholding commissions and royalties. The label and management firm’s filing follows Walker’s August lawsuit accusing LVRN of taking money from her music, touring and merchandise; the dispute could affect her efforts to end her recording and management agreements.

LVRN alleges Walker owes a 7% commission from her 2025 arena tour, 20% of public performance royalties and a 15% management commission on gross ancillary income. It cites more than two dozen opportunities it says it negotiated, including a Savage x Fenty partnership, a Chris Brown tour slot and a FIFA World Cup performance, and seeks unspecified damages. Walker’s lawyer disputes the counterclaims. Separately, Interscope is seeking $50 million, alleging Walker has delivered three of five contracted albums.
