Incarcerated rapper Lil Wayne has been hit with a lawsuit filed by his former manager claiming that the star cheated her out of her share of the rapper's estimated $200 million dollars in earnings. Melissa Philipian and White Tides Entertainment Group were fired by Lil Wayne in 2005, according to sources; and in 2006, Philipian sued Lil Wayne, claiming she was owed $500,000 in commissions plus 15 percent of his total earnings.

The case was eventually settled out of court, but a YouTube video that recently surfaced has resulted in a new lawsuit. Philipian says the video shows that Lil Wayne lied under oath, about his involvement with Philipian and White Tides, and in the new lawsuit, which was filed in Florida District Court, Lil Wayne, Cash Money and Universal Music Group are accused of fraud, defamation, breach of contract and other allegations.

Philipian also claims she was blacklisted.
