Chance the rapper has scored a win in his countersuit against former manager, Pat Corcoran.

A Cook County jury rejected Corcoran's claim for $3.8 million in unpaid expenses and royalties.

Instead, they ruled Corcoran owes Chance just $35.

The fight kicked off late in 2020 when Corcoran sued Chance for breach of contract after

getting fired.

Chance hit back two months later, accusing his ex-manager of breaching fiduciary duties,

steering business to his own companies and pocketing, kickbacks.

He sought at least $1 million in damages.

On March 20th at Chicago's Daily Center, the jury deliberated for two hours before delivering

the verdict.

They also recommended Corcoran transfer the internet domain ChanceRaps.com, a site he once

used to sell Chance's merchandise.

This outcome highlights the risks in music management deals and underscores the value of

solid written agreements, closing a year's long legal quash.
