St. Lunatics Members Want Out of $50M Nelly Lawsuit, Leaving Only Ali
Nelly was recently sued by his former group St. Lunatics for $50 million, but now it appears only ONE rapper wants to continue pursuing the case -- Nelly's lawyer states the other 3 are saying they want out!!!

TMZ Hip Hop obtained a legal letter that was sent to the attorney who filed the lawsuit against Nelly, that states Murphy Lee, Kyjuan, and City Spud did not give authorization for them to be included in the lawsuit filed in mid-September.
The lawsuit is spearheaded by ex-Lunatics de facto leader Ali Jones, and it claims Jones and other St. Lunatics members have been shut out of royalties and profits from Nelly's Diamond-selling "Country Grammar" album and other various tracks.
According to the letter, Nelly's attorney N. Scott Rosenblum says the 3 St. Lunatics -- other than Jones -- recently retained him and are now demanding to be removed from the suit ... threatening legal repercussions.
Our sources say the STL rappers were blindsided by the suit and are still tight with Nelly -- and they proved it on one of the biggest stages in music!!!
Murphy Lee, Kyjuan, and City Spud joined Nelly during Sunday night's 2024 American Music Awards, where they performed a tribute to the evolution of hip hop.

The label chose Nelly to be a solo artist. Then the ghostwriting began. Mase supposedly even helped out cause his old manager was running w Nelly.
Ali supposedly wrote ALOT. Shoulda had his paperwork right. But that’s how “homie business” go down most times
