According to Billboard, Azalea filed a lawsuit in September after she got word that Williams had unreleased music and an alleged sex tape in his possession. According to the complaint, Williams "downloaded the entire contents of Azalea's personal computer," which included unreleased master recordings and had already sent some of the songs to various music companies.

Several music companies later claimed that they had secured the rights to release an EP from Azalea from these unreleased masters. However, Azalea said they got these rights through forgery of her signature. After a lengthy debate on how the companies got the use of her signature, the judge sided with Azalea (real name Amethyst Kelly).
