HOUSTON, TX. (Forum Consulting Co.) - Suit has been filed in Federal Court by the alleged writer of numerous songs on the "Gametime" album by "Lil Romeo."
The lawsuit, filed in the Federal District Court in Houston, Texas, names Percy Romeo Miller professionally known as "Lil Romeo," his father, rap mogul Percy "Master P" Miller Jr., Master P. Music LLC, One Up Entertainment LLC, Universal Music Group Recordings and Buena Vista Home Entertainment LLC as defendants.

While Master P, who at one time graced the Forbe's list of wealthiest people in America, now alleged to be bankrupt, and his son "Lil Romeo," have parlayed "Lil Romeo's" recording success into lucrative film and television deals, the lawsuit alleges that the real writer of the majority of the "Gametime" album has gone uncredited and without pay. Sean Cunningham, Plaintiff in the suit, claims to have written six songs on the album, one of which appeared in the successful movie as the title track in "Max Keeble's Big Move" in which Lil Romeo made a cameo appearance.
Cunningham alleges that not only were his lyrics used but his rap style was copied as well. According to Cunningham, he was not under contract as a ghostwriter, received no album credit for his songs and was never paid.
Much has been made of the supposed talent of "Lil Romeo" to write his own lyrics at such a young age. Now this suit calls into question the truth of such claims and poses the question, Are Master P and his son "Keeping it Real or Keeping it Fraud."
A trial date of March 5, 2005 has been set and legal discovery is in process.
