Havoc chimes in on the current legal drama with Mobb Deep's former manager.

Earlier this week, news broke out that Mobb Deep's former manager was suing the group for $500K. It was reported that he was suing because of unpaid management services throughout their career. The unfortunate part of this scenario is that it comes less than a year after Prodigy's death. Havoc chimed in on the situation and said that his former manager is on some "punk shit."

Havoc finds the ex-manager's lawsuit sickening based on the fact that he's suing after Prodigy's death last year, he tells TMZ. The rapper explained that if Buck 50 Productions win this lawsuit, they'll be taking food out of the mouths of Prodigy's kids, when he's not here to provide for them.

"I mean, what kind of sicko sues his artist, you know, after he dies knowing that that man has kids? How his kids gon' eat? He's taking food out [Prodigy's] kids mouth." He said, "That's some punk shit, you know what I mean?"

Havoc explained that he has no problem handling it in court, but the guy suing was never even his manager in the first place.

"It's one of them money grab things. He was never my manager but now he want to take food out Prodigy kids mouth. And the man is dead, he a sicko." He said.

Despite the massive money the former management wants, Havoc doesn't seem to be too concerned about it.

"I ain't worried about it, you know what I'm saying, all my paperwork is in order. He was never my manager so he just making people spend money that we don't even need to be spending on lawyers, you know what I'm saying. Like I need to sue him for a frivolous lawsuit." He said.
