The promoter was also working out deals for The Game to make club appearances. In the suit, Tour Squad said The Game and his team backed out of the tour after they refused to pay $3.2 million for a documentary he wanted to film. Things got worse when the musician demanded they pay for him to bring a 15-person entourage.

A jury awarded her $7 million after a trial. Since her win, Rainey has been on the hunt to seize The Game's property and assets. He has not paid a dime on the judgment and refuses to hand over a dime.

Rainey has had to get creative with her moves. A judge granted a motion she brought to seize his royalties. She asked to be allowed to intercept any payments he makes on Venmo and Cash App. The battle is still going on in Federal Court.
