“We’ve had a few problems as well,” GK admits.
The rap trio have lodged a legal claim against their record label and say they are owed about £400,000 in unpaid royalties.
They say they had “no other option” but to take court action against House Anxiety, which signed the group in 2020 and released their Full Wack No Breaks mixtape that year.
It included the band’s breakthrough track 450 and follow-up Disrespectful, reaching number two in the UK album chart in 2022 under a licensing deal with Sony’s Relentless label.
House Anxiety has previously strongly rejected the claim and said it welcomed the chance to “clarify inaccuracies” in it.
GK describes the situation as “heartbreaking” and says it’s paused everything for Bad Boy Chiller Crew.
“We got belittled and used and manipulated,” he says.
“As it stands, there’s no future because we’re not allowed to release music.
“We’re not allowed to put anything out there. We couldn’t even go on tour because we couldn’t release music.”
That’s despite them “trying and pushing” to do so, says GK.
Clive tells Newsbeat: “It’s stopping us from working, stopping us from doing what we do best, what we love.”
House Anxiety has yet to respond to a further request for comment.
