Her complaint also pointed out a breach of contract, reporting that Roc Nation breached the recording agreement by improperly taking twenty percent commission of her income from opportunities that it did not procure or was not authorized.In January 2016, Roc Nation filed a counter-lawsuit against Ora for breaking her recording contract, in New York.They reached a settlement in May 2016.
