When the stipulations  her imbalanced recording contract were revealed in , 1501 Certified Entertainment, Meg’s Hotties were even more convinced that intervention was required. Then, and denied all the Houston rapper’s accusations. We are now left in the middle a “he said, she said” situation, where the claims being made by both parties are equally wild and damning.
