The hip-hop world is buzzing with drama once again! Kayla B, the outspoken sister of the late King Von, recently took to social media to claim that the lawsuit filed by FBG Duck’s mother, LaSheena Weekly (aka Momma Duck), against Lil Durk and King Von’s estate has been dismissed. But here’s the kicker—there’s no official court confirmation to back up her statement.
What’s the Lawsuit About?
In October 2024, Momma Duck filed a lawsuit accusing Lil Durk, King Von’s estate, and their record labels of being involved in the 2020 murder of FBG Duck⁽¹⁾. The lawsuit claims that King Von allegedly placed a $100,000 bounty on FBG Duck and that Lil Durk benefitted from the violence through music sales and streaming numbers⁽¹⁾. Even major record labels, including Sony, were dragged into the case, with accusations that they profited from music promoting gang violence⁽¹⁾. The lawsuit argued that the industry played a role in real-life harm, making labels and artists accountable for the deadly cycle of street beefs spilling into music⁽¹⁾.
Did the Lawsuit Really Get Dismissed?
While Kayla B’s Instagram post quickly went viral, there’s still no official court record confirming that the lawsuit has been dropped⁽¹⁾. Legal experts suggest that until an official document states otherwise, the case is still active⁽¹⁾. That means this legal battle could still have twists and turns in the coming months.
Hip-Hop Fans Are Divided
Unsurprisingly, this lawsuit has caused major debates in the hip-hop community⁽¹⁾. Some fans believe Momma Duck is fighting for justice and holding the music industry accountable, while others argue that artists shouldn’t be blamed for real-life violence⁽¹⁾.
The case also raises big questions about the role of record labels in promoting music that glorifies street life⁽¹⁾. Should the industry take responsibility, or is it all just entertainment?
What’s Next?
If the lawsuit moves forward, it could set a groundbreaking legal precedent for how hip-hop and crime intersect⁽¹⁾. But for now, it’s all speculation until an official court ruling is released⁽¹⁾.
So, is the case really over? Until we see those legal documents, it looks like this battle is still far from finished
