The New York Times report that New York music showcase, CMJ are finding themselves the subject of a $1 million from a former business partner.
It’s said that promotions company, Metropolitan Entertainment are seeking compensation for over $600,000 in loans, plus interest, originally taken out back in 2009 and 2010.
