Frank Ocean Tells Chipotle To 'F--- OFF' Over $212,000 Commission

Rapper Frank Ocean responded to a lawsuit from burrito chain Chipotle late Monday by writing the company a check for $212,500 that said "F--- OFF" in the memo line.

The Mexican chain had filed suit against Ocean on Friday, claiming that he failed to record a cover of "Pure Imagination" for the company's "Scarecrow" ad campaign.

Chipotle claims he backed out of the project after the company gave him an advance of $212,500, and that he never returned the money despite failing to deliver the song, according to a copy of the lawsuit $4.

Ocean's legal team claims the singer was deceived into thinking the ad campaign was meant to promote responsible farming, and that he no longer wanted to participate after learning that a Chipotle logo would appear at the end of the ad.

Ocean hasn't publicly commented on the suit until Monday, when his Tumblr account posted an image of the aforementioned $4 in his name for the exact amount that Chipotle gave him in the advance, $4 reported.
