Since the firm didn't pay up, hip hop bands Swizz Beatz and Timbaland are banding together to sue the owner of their famous music competition series Verzuz. According to TMZ's report, Swizz Beatz (real name: Kasseem Dean) and Timbaland (Timothy Mosley) have filed a lawsuit against Triller's social media video service for $28 million. Despite reportedly reaching a compromise after the first default, they argue in the case that the platform has failed more than once to make the required payments after purchasing the video series.
