*The Wu-Tang Clan is being sued by its founding member U-God for at least $2.5 million, claiming he hasn’t gotten his share of royalty payments for six years.

According to TMZ, U-God claims to also be missing payments due for his share of merchandising and the top secret double album “Once Upon a Time in Shaolin” purchased by Martin Shkreli for $2 million.

The $2.5 million covers numerous breaches of contract, TMZ reports, and he is also requesting a complete accounting of Wu-Tang’s revenue streams.

U-God has appeared on all of Wu-Tang’s studio albums, with five songwriting credits on their latest release, 2014’s “A Better Tomorrow.”
