Iggy Azalea Claims That UMG 'Criminals' Owe Her Millions of Dollars
Briefly

Iggy Azalea has publicly voiced her dissatisfaction with Universal Music Group (UMG), claiming they owe her millions in back pay and offered a mere $18,000 settlement. She alleges that UMG has not paid her royalties for international revenue since signing with them. Azalea declared her intent to pursue the issue relentlessly, criticizing UMG for taking advantage of artists unable to combat such financial misconduct. Her comments add to growing concerns about UMG's royalty practices, highlighted by a previous lawsuit from Limp Bizkit over similar issues resulting in substantial settlements for the band.
Azalea asserts, "UGM's lawyers typically respond with low settlement offers while artists like me fight for what's owed, leading to subsequent million-dollar settlements."
Iggy Azalea claims she hasn't been paid royalties outside the U.S. and condemns UMG's practices as predatory towards vulnerable artists unable to fight back.
