Furtherless: what has the alimony fight got to do with the rap war? Is the alimony fight bait to get him to L.A.? (which is legally dubious for reasons cited above). Or do the the alimony payments have something causally to do with the "fight for his life" -- he's on the verge of bankruptcy?

A Canadian ? Maybe you could fill that one in for more clarity. For me, being totally blank on the rap scene, your logline is confusing in the sense of the second line -contesting his alimony payments in LA-. If I leave that part out the logline is suddenly clear and more strong.

Titel suggestion? In a short Google on bi-coastal rap wars I came across the titel of the song "Who shot ya?
