Rich The Kid is having to cough up after coming under fire from another lawsuit. The Boss Man rapper was sued by retail company Fashion Nova in October for allegedly breaching the terms of a contract they signed in 2018.
Now, according toThe Blast, a default judgment has been ordered for Rich The Kid to pay $132,637.75 to the fashion brand. The total sum comes from $100,000 in damages, $29,526 in interest and $3,111 in case fees.
Fashion Nova inked a deal with Rich The Kid in 2018 to have him join the team as a brand ambassador, which included several posts promoting the products on his social media and a name-drop for Fashion Nova in a song.
However, he allegedly fulfilled none of that in a timely manner, despite receiving a $100,000 advance check. Fashion Nova went to the court system after being unable to get ahold of Rich The Kid.
