Payday? Drake, seen here at the MTV Video Music Awards in New York City on August 25, is being sued for nearly $80k in alleged unpaid expenses...Hello Friends!
Drake is reportedly being sued by a stylist for a yachtful of alleged unpaid expenses.
Stylist Michael Raphael has filed a lawsuit claiming the rapper owes him $76,490 as of December 2012, reports TMZ.
Raphael, who was hired by Drake in August 2012, says he was brought on at a monthly rate of $39,583 for services including styling, clothing, graphic design and more.
But Raphael allegedly incurred other exorbitant costs for Drake's travel and shopping habits and hasn't been paid back.
Raphael's lawsuit includes thousands of dollars' worth of receipts from stores including Nike, Diesel and American Rag.
Apparently, things were fine from August through November 2012, but the stylist alleges that Drake stopped paying in December.
Nearly $40,000 in December expenses, along with the unpaid monthly rate, comprise the amount that Raphael is suing for.

Drake is no stranger to legal troubles.
He was sued by alleged ex-girlfriend Ericka Lee in February 2012 over claims that she was owed royalties and credit for her vocal contribution to his track 'Marvin's Room.'
That case was settled out of court this February despite Drake's original statement that he '[looked] forward to being vindicated in court,' according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Drake also dealt with several lawsuits in the aftermath of his brawl with Chris Brown in a New York City nightclub in June 2012.
