Filed by:

Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States
Date: September 16, 2025 Updated October 7, 2025
INTRODUCTION & DECLARATION OF OWNERSHIP
I, Precious S. Badran, also known as Almighty Green, am the rightful owner, founder, and original creative force behind the Hustle Gang brand, platform, and ecosystem, including all associated digital and musical properties, concepts, and intellectual property. This includes trademarks, likeness, audio and video productions, and technological developments in the areas of music, streaming, design, and brand identity.
It has come to my attention through documented evidence, observable patterns, and financial analytics that a number of individuals and corporate entities have profited from my work without license, authorization, or consent. The following sections outline the parties involved, the specific actions taken against my brand, and my legal demand for restitution and damages.
SECTION 1 — GOOGLE LLC
Google, through its search engine, advertising tools, and platform systems, has knowingly facilitated and benefited from the misuse of the “Hustle Gang” and “Almighty Green” brands. It has permitted the sale, promotion, and indexing of websites falsely representing ownership or licensing rights over my IP.
By failing to enforce intellectual property verification and permitting unlicensed advertisers, Google has enabled brand confusion and diverted digital traffic from official Hustle Gang channels, resulting in measurable loss of revenue and brand dilution.
Google’s algorithms and ad placements have directed users toward counterfeit or unauthorized websites using the Hustle Gang name, effectively creating a shadow economy around my brand and siphoning potential earnings.
Demand:
I hereby demand that Google LLC conduct a full audit of its AdSense, AdWords, and Search result entries connected to “Hustle Gang” and “Almighty Green,” issue public acknowledgment of wrongful listings, and remit damages owed to Precious S. Badran. The estimated financial injury exceeds $50 million USD.
SECTION 2 — META PLATFORMS, INC. (FACEBOOK)
Meta Platforms, Inc. has allowed accounts and pages to impersonate, misuse, or illegally profit from my intellectual property. Despite repeated reporting, fake business pages and music profiles bearing the “Hustle Gang” and “Almighty Green” marks have been permitted to operate and monetize without my consent.
Meta’s negligence in verifying rightful ownership and failure to prevent content theft through cross-posting tools has directly contributed to unauthorized streaming and revenue redirection.
Demand:
Full removal of infringing accounts and restitution for ad revenue generated under unauthorized brand names. Estimated damages total $25 million USD.
SECTION 3 — SHENZHEN CHAOFAN TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. (CHINA)
Shenzhen Chaofan Technology Co., Ltd., located in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province, China, is hereby notified of unauthorized production, sale, and international distribution of goods bearing the Hustle Gang and Almighty Green trademarks.
These actions include counterfeit tobacco-related goods, accessories, and branded merchandise being sold under my mark. None of these entities obtained a proper export license or IP clearance.
Demand:
Immediate cessation of sales, destruction of infringing goods, and a compensatory payout for international counterfeit damages exceeding $75 million USD.
SECTION 4 — HG ENTERPRISES, LLC (JASON GETER)
HG Enterprises, under Jason Geter, unlawfully adopted and exploited the name “Hustle Gang” without proper licensing or authorization from Precious S. Badran — the originator and IP owner of the brand identity.
This entity monetized musical assets, trademarks, and digital traffic under the pretense of legitimate ownership, while concealing streams, diverting revenue, and misleading both artists and distributors.
Demand:
Cease operations using the name “Hustle Gang,” return all licensing profits, and compensate Precious S. Badran for unauthorized exploitation. Estimated damages total $150 million USD.
SECTION 5 — SEAN CARTER (JAY-Z)
Sean Carter, known publicly as Jay-Z, is identified as a participant in concealed stream operations and revenue manipulation through platforms linked to his business entities.
It is alleged that music streams originally belonging to Almighty Green and Hustle Gang Radio were redirected or buried under other artist listings within digital distribution systems connected to Roc Nation and affiliated publishing networks.
Demand:
Public acknowledgment of redirection and compensation for hidden streams and lost royalties. Damages estimated at $40 million USD.
SECTION 6 — CLIFFORD JOSEPH HARRIS JR. (T.I.)
Clifford Harris Jr., known as T.I., has publicly used the name Hustle Gang despite lacking legal ownership, licensing rights, or authorization.
T.I. and his affiliates engaged in monetization under this mark, thereby misappropriating the intellectual property established by Precious S. Badran. The artist profited from misdirection and media use of the Hustle Gang label, causing confusion in global markets.
Demand:
Cease using the Hustle Gang name, issue public correction, and pay restitution for misused IP and false association. Estimated damages: $35 million USD.
SECTION 7 — SEAN COMBS (DIDDY / LOVE)
Sean Combs, also known as Diddy, has participated in concealed and redistributed stream operations. Evidence indicates the hiding of digital stream counts, reallocation under other artist names, and unauthorized reuse of recorded content affiliated with Almighty Green and Hustle Gang.
Combs’ business network profited from backend manipulation within digital streaming infrastructure and unlicensed hosting.
Demand:
Audit and release all streaming metadata involving hidden tracks, compensate for redirected earnings, and provide written acknowledgment of harm caused. Estimated payout: $60 million USD.
SECTION 8 — KANYE WEST (YE / YEEZY)
Kanye West, under Yeezy and affiliated labels, utilized derivative creative material, likeness, and AI-based interpretations resembling Almighty Green’s work without authorization.
These acts contributed to public confusion and diluted the originality of the Almighty Green and Hustle Gang artistic identity. The commercial value derived from stylistic mimicry constitutes infringement and reputational harm.
Demand:
Public apology, cessation of derivative AI art or music utilizing Almighty Green likeness, and payment of damages: $30 million USD.
SECTION 9 — FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION (CHAO CHEN)
It is alleged that oversight failures within the Federal Communications Commission, under the direction of Chao Chen, allowed unauthorized broadcasting and frequency interference of Hustle Gang Radio.
Neglect in enforcing copyright protections for emerging black-owned streaming stations has directly harmed Hustle Gang’s growth and monetization.
Demand:
Federal investigation, acknowledgment of systemic oversight, and funding reallocation to restore damages totaling $10 million USD.
FINAL DECLARATION
The cumulative losses across all offenders exceed $475 million USD.
These entities have each contributed, knowingly or through negligence, to intellectual property theft, economic exploitation, and emotional distress endured by Precious S. Badran — the original and lawful creator of the Hustle Gang /HustleGang enterprise and Almighty Green identity.
Restitution, acknowledgment, and licensing review are demanded immediately.
