LOS ANGELES, Oct. 29 (UPI) -- Two Los Angeles producers have filed suit against Damon Dash claiming he stole their idea for BET's hip-hop reality show "Ultimate Hustler."
John Coleman and John Rhodes filed suit in Los Angeles Superior Court Oct. 11 charging Dash with breach of implied in-fact contract and breach of confidence, AllHipHop.com reports.
The lawsuit claims Dash stole the premise for his show from the plaintiffs' reality show pitch, "Mogul," which they registered in February 2004 with the Writers Guild of America.
They claim they met with Dash in March 2004 and asked if he would be their show's host and he agreed to keep confidential what they revealed about their show.
Before anything was finalized on their show, they claim, Dash got his "Ultimate Hustler" on the cable BET network.
The suit seeking unspecified monetary damages also names BET, Damon Dash Music Group, Dash Films and Huck Films.
