DJ Envy put Irv Gotti and Murda Inc. on blast for a record he co-produced for the UMG label years ago and was never paid on the back end.
Envy made the revelation when guest host Jess Hilarious was detailing her situation regarding Master P owing her cash for her appearance in one of his movies titled I Got the Hook-up 2.

“Irv Gotti did it to me. I’m not gonna sit here and lie. He definitely owe me $10,000. Definitely owe me $10,000,” he said.
“I remember me and [DJ] Mono produced a record for Murda Inc. back in the day and I got my front end and I never got a back end. They were like, ‘Keep it moving.’ So I kept it moving.”
Envy didn’t specify which record it was, but he relayed to TMZ that after Gotti stiffed him on the payment, he ended up splitting the front-end payment with Mono.
The Breakfast Club co-host also ruffled some feathers on Friday morning (February 24) when he called on Drake to release an album where he’s purely rapping.
“I think Drake needs that one album, that one Hip Hop, rap album,” he said. “That’s just me, I’m a Drake fan and I want that one Hip Hop, rap album like when we hear this freestyles and he’s going in, I need an album like that.”
Charlamagne Tha God questioned how someone like Envy could demand another rap-centric album out of Drake to prove something after the plethora of music he’s released recently as well as in his decorated catalog as a whole.

“I drove to the station listening to Drake and he’s going off — going crazy and I want to hear a full album like that. I think that it would stop some of the doubters all the time. I’m a Hov fan, I’m a lyricist fan and I like when he spit,” Envy continued.
