Turk and dope Shows Legal Dispute
Table of Contents
as of January 17, 2026, a legal dispute between rapper Turk (Lamarcus Day) and Dope Shows LLC remains ongoing, stemming from a 2023 Hot Boys tour. The core of the dispute centers on alleged unpaid compensation and accusations of breach of contract.
Initial reports indicated Turk filed a lawsuit in Florida seeking $340,000 in unpaid compensation, claiming the promoters used security concerns as a pretext to withhold payment. Dope Shows countered with claims that Turk’s actions compromised tour security and led to the removal of fellow Hot Boys member B.G. from the tour.
Background on the Hot Boys Tour and Initial Claims
The Hot Boys, a seminal hip-hop group from Cash Money Records, embarked on a tour in 2023. Turk alleges that Dope Shows LLC failed to fulfill it’s contractual obligations regarding his compensation. He filed suit in the Circuit Court of the 11th Judicial District of Florida, Case No. 2023-CA-XXXXX (Note: Case number is a placeholder as a real number was not publicly available as of 2026/01/17), seeking $340,000.Florida Courts Website provides access to court records, though specific case details may require a subscription.
Dope Shows LLC, in response, has asserted that Turk’s behavior created security issues that necessitated B.G.’s removal from the tour. Thay claim B.G.’s removal was initiated after intervention from his probation officer, and that B.G. generates significantly more revenue than Turk, impacting the tour’s financial viability.
B.G.’s Removal and Security Concerns
B.G.(Christopher Dorsey) was removed from the tour following concerns raised by his probation officer regarding potential violations of his supervised release. The U.S. Department of Justice documented B.G.’s 2009 federal weapons conviction and subsequent supervised release. Dope Shows alleges that Turk’s conflicts with B.G. contributed to the situation, creating an unstable environment.
The specific nature of the conflicts between Turk and B.G. remains largely unconfirmed in official court documents, but reports suggest disagreements over performance arrangements and financial matters.
Dope Shows LLC further alleges that unauthorized disclosures regarding the tour’s financial details have exacerbated the dispute. These disclosures,according to Dope Shows,have damaged the relationship and complex settlement negotiations.
