“To date, [Triller] has failed and refused to make any payment to [Swizz Beatz and Timbaland] of the past due sums due and owing,” the lawsuit reads — PolitiTweet.org

Taylor Lorenz @TaylorLorenz

Per the suit, things began to sour when Triller missed a big payment to the Verzuz founders in Jan. Triller then agreed to a settlement where they'd pay Swizz/Timbaland $18M by 3/20, and $1M/mo for 10 months. According to the suit, Triller has missed every one of those payments — PolitiTweet.org

Swizz Beatz and Timbaland filed their lawsuit against Triller just hours ago, alleging the social media platform owes them more than $28 million after acquiring Verzuz last year. The complaint has been filed in California state court. — PolitiTweet.org
