Cleveland super group Bone Thugs N Harmony, who are best known for their fast flow and 1996 classic hit “The Crossroads”, lost a lawsuit yesterday, February 28th, pressed against them by a group of Japanese concert promoters to the tune of $200,000. The Japanese promoters, operating under the name of World Mix Entertainment, claim the group missed two shows in the cities of Nagoya and Okinawa . 

Now unlike the other frivolous lawsuits we’ve seen recently come up by concert promoters (Juelz Santana Sued Boy Concert Promoter) this company actually took a loss as they had to refund all the tickets to the sold out show. The deciding factor in the case was the group’s performance contract and rider which listed Bone would receive $25,000 per show along with and additional $10,000 for a photo shoot and of course the standard air fare and hotel accommodations. The rider also contained a list of items and services that the group demanded to be provided by the promoters as well including items like a box of Philly blunts, one "big sack of marijuana," two cases of Miller Genuine Draft, two bottles of Hennessy and two pepperoni pizzas. Yes that’s right a quote “big sack of marijuana”. How that was admissible in court to receive compensation for…I don’t know, it’s a strange world.
