• The Jewelry Man's around, The Jewelry Man's around. I just got a new shipment of that good sh*t.fresh off the boat from Russia. The Jewelry Man.calling no man foe, but never loving a stranger.

    In "I'm not into being pimped, so I'll see you in court" news, my second cousin The Game recently filed a lawsuit against Koch and Fast Life Records for selling material the rapper recorded before he landed a deal with Dr. Dre's Aftermath/Interscope imprint.

    Oh really EbenGregory, what's that all about?

    Let Game tell it, Koch Entertainment Distribution, Koch Entertainment and Fast Life Records are liable for at least 81 separate counts of copyright infringement for marketing and distributing at least five albums from the Game.

    Apparently, the labels released Untold Story, Untold Story Vol. 2, Untold Story Vol. 2 Chopped & Screwed, G.A.M.E. in an effort to get paid. The lawsuit also claims that the labels were notified that the sale of the albums violated Game's rights, but the labels refused to halt the distribution and sale of the recordings.

    Here's Jimmy Rosemond, Game's manager, to AllHipHop.com on Koch trying to get paid off a few bogus Game albums: It is unfortunate that Koch ignored our request to halt distribution of Game's early demos. They are illegal masters that were obtained without the consent of the Game. We hope this will make any and all musical pirates more conscious of artist, like the Game and their copyrights and intellectual property. Koch just released another illegal Game album [G.A.M.E.]. This is a mere attempt to confuse Game's fans as he is preparing to release his sophomore album in June with Dr. Dre.

    Let Koch tell it, The Game's blowing smoke.

    Here's a source at Koch Records to AllHipHop.com on them having every legal right to release the albums: Our rights to these recordings are rock solid and legal, which Game's management is well aware of. Game's current management has never made a request to us to stop selling these records and they have no legal ground to do so anyway. Intimidation certainly will not work with us.

    Sources have informed The Jewelry Man that Game is seeking injunctive relief, statutory or actual damages, punitive damages, costs and attorney's fees. Game also wants to see those sales figures, cause you know he wants some of that money.

    And speaking of relief.

    Here's some jewelry being dropped by EbenGregory on The Game suing Koch Records for trying to get paid off a few bogus Game albums: For most folks, no news is good news; for The Jewelry Man, good news is not news.

    The Jewelry Man.not caring about news.
