Cardi B’s Former Manager Is Suing Her For $10 Million

Cardi B’s aggrieved former manager has dragged her to court with the intention of squeezing dollars out of her pocket.

According to Vulture, the rapper left her former manager, Klenord “Shaft” Raphael, for new representation at Solid Foundation, prompting Raphael to sue her her.

In a statement shared with the press, Raphael’s rep said that “Since discovering Cardi B in 2015, Shaft has played an integral role in developing her music career and public image. While he is proud of their successful collaborations as she evolved from Instagram influencer to music megastar, Shaft is disappointed by her actions to freeze him out of her career, which are detailed in the complaint.”

Some of the claims made against Cardi include “breach of contract, unjust enrichment, quantum meruit, declaratory judgment, and defamation” of her former manager because Cardi allegedly told people that “Shaft is robbing me.”

And it is for this reason the former manager is now seeking no less than $10 million in damages.

The lawsuit reportedly also names Cardi’s publicist and stylist, Patience Foster, as well as members of her new management team, who are accused of “intentionally” interfering with Cardi’s agreement with him, thereby depriving his company of “substantial income” and other benefits.
