Madlib is suing his former manager, Eothen “Egon” Alapatt, accusing him of “rank self-dealing,” “engaging in persistent and pervasive mismanagement,” and unduly profiting from his involvement in the musician’s business affairs. Madlib filed his lawsuit in a Los Angeles court on October 31, marking the fourth anniversary of MF Doom’s death. Doom’s widow, Jasmine Dumile Thompson, is also involved in an ongoing lawsuit against Egon.
