Summer Walker Countersued By Longtime Label & Management Company LVRN Over Allegedly Unpaid Tour Commissions & Royalties MMO

Summer Walker’s legal battle with her longtime label and management company, Love Renaissance (LVRN), is heating up!

According to Billboard, LVRN has countersued the R&B singer, accusing her of breaching their 2017 agreement by failing to pay commissions and royalties the company claims it is owed.

In court documents filed Monday (Nov. 9), LVRN alleges Walker failed to pay a 7% commission from her 2026 Still Finally Over It tour, 20% of her public performance royalties, and a 15% management commission on certain additional earnings.

The company also pointed to more than two dozen business opportunities it claims to have negotiated for Walker, including a Savage X Fenty partnership, an opening slot on Chris Brown’s Breezy Bowl tour, and a FIFA World Cup performance.

LVRN’s attorneys accused the singer of acting in bad faith and being “stubbornly litigious.” The company is seeking unspecified financial damages.

However, Walker’s attorney, Keith Moten, is pushing back.

Moten told Billboard that the countersuit “does nothing to change the fundamental issues at the heart of Summer’s lawsuit, nor does it diminish their obligation to account for their actions.”

He also expressed disappointment that LVRN is seeking additional money from Walker rather than addressing her allegations.

“We strongly dispute LVRN’s counterclaims and remain confident in the legal and factual grounds supporting Summer’s lawsuit,” he added.

The countersuit follows Walker’s August lawsuit accusing LVRN of fraud, breach of contract, and improperly withholding money connected to her music, touring, and merchandise. LVRN denies those allegations.

Meanwhile, Walker is also facing a separate $50 million lawsuit from Interscope Records over alleged unfulfilled album commitments.
