Swizz Beatz is being sued by a songwriter who claims he co-produced the track “My Drink ‘n My 2 Step” but was not paid properly for his work.

In the lawsuit filed this week, Antwann Frost claims Swizz approached him in 2007 to help craft a hit single for rapper Cassidy’s then incomplete album.

According to the documents obtained by TMZ  Swizz assembled the “drum patterns” and Frost created “all of the other original musical components that shaped and defined” the track that would become a chart-topping hit … spawning remixes by Kanye West, Ne-Yo, and Chingy.

The song was released soon after, Frost claims, Swizz low-balled him with a $5,000 cash offer and 5% ownership of the song while Swizz and Cassidy got the bulk share.

Frost rejected the offer, and is now suing for $1,500,000 claiming he deserves equal partnership in the song with Swizz and Cassidy.
