Seems like Kendrick Lamar has paid a huge price for upsetting a fan as he was sued for 1 million dollars over meet-and-greet dispute.

According to sources, the court documents claimed that the 28-year-old hip-hop artist was scheduled to meet his fan Whitney Larkins, who paid 350 dollar for a VIP concert package and wanted an additional three minutes one-on-one time with the singer, News.com.au reports.

In the lawsuit, Larkins claimed that the 'King Kunta' hit-maker's manager Dave Free was ready to grant her wish against payment of 10 thousand dollars.

However, before the show, she got an email stating that she had been banned from attending the show and her paid amount would be refunded.

However, Lamar's fan also praised him, saying he, like Tupac, is one of the greatest rappers.
