Fetty Wap and his former administrative assistant, Shawna Morgan, have reportedly parted ways, and it doesn’t appear the two split on good terms. A TMZ report citing unnamed sources claims Fetty fired Morgan for allegedly pocketing $250,000 in booking fees as part of an elaborate scheme.
“Sources close to Fetty’s RGF Productions tell TMZ … they fired Shawna Morgan Friday for falsely representing herself as his booking agent and manager,” the TMZ report read. “RGF claims Morgan charged additional fees to venues that booked Fetty. They believe she collected real booking fees on behalf of RGF, and then emailed on the side pretending to be Fetty’s manager.”
Morgan is reportedly denying the claims and essentially making the opposite claims in regards to Fetty Wap. A conflicting accusation has Fetty Wap and RGF owing Morgan $250,000 as reimbursement for using her credit card to cover tour expenses, such as hotel fees.
In 2015, “Trap Queen” and “679” respectively peaked at the No. 2 and No. 4 spots on Billboard magazine’s “Hot 100” chart. Having two hit singles presumably provided many lucrative touring opportunities, and that seems to be what’s at the center of the accusations between Fetty and Morgan.
The TMZ report goes on to state Fetty Wap believes Morgan charged venues additional fees for booking Fetty, lied about said fees and pocketed the additional fees as well as her standard commission. Morgan maintains she was not fired and took the industry standard 10 percent fee for any bookings.
Given the nature of the claims on both sides, things have the potential to get ugly.
