Stone Paxton recently came forward with explosive claims about his involvement in late soul legend Angie Stone’s fight for her music royalties—only to be replaced by filmmaker Tyler Perry. In a seven-part exposé, Paxton alleges that his company was helping the R&B icon track down missing royalties before he was abruptly pushed aside.
Paxton’s Claims: Helping Angie Stone Before Her Passing
In Part Three of his series, Paxton revealed that members of Angie’s team accused him of coercing her into signing an agreement with his company while she was in distress. He strongly denied the allegations, asserting that Angie initially reached out to him due to his deep industry connections. Paxton further claimed that he was securing a Las Vegas residency for the No More Rain (In This Cloud) singer before being sidelined.
Behind the Scenes: Alleged Management Drama
Paxton also shed light on alleged internal conflicts within Angie Stone’s camp, particularly involving Cornerstone Management, which he referred to as a “made-up” team. He claimed that this collective was suddenly appointed as the primary contact for all inquiries about Angie’s memorial arrangements.
According to Paxton, his own brother was Angie’s real manager and was the one who uncovered shocking details about her finances—specifically, that she allegedly had “no publishing” rights to her music. He also mentioned a heated dispute over who rented the Benz Sprinter and hired the driver responsible for transporting Angie before her passing.
Paxton’s Sudden Exit & Tyler Perry’s Involvement
Paxton insisted that he and his brother were actively working with Angie through his TBC Group to investigate her missing royalties. However, he claimed that a “sleeper cell” within her inner circle orchestrated his removal. In the end, he says he wasn’t even acknowledged for his efforts, his name was erased from the conversation and his role seemingly filled by Tyler Perry.
As Paxton continues to reveal more details, questions still remain: Who was truly behind Angie Stone’s financial struggles, and why was Paxton allegedly pushed aside?
