 On the West side, super producer Dr. Dre is facing financial problems of his own. He is being sued my Paramount Recording Studios for $1,220,500 for breach of contract.  Although this studio has been home to him for the last ten years, Paramount is claiming that Dr. Dre and his Aftermath label  rented "recording studios and services"  for April 2009 until June of 2010 but never paid for them. Dr. Dre agreed to settle the bill but never did so.

Come on Dre. Pay yo' bills. We do not want to wait another 10 years for the Detox album to finally be released.
