![Whitney Houston -- Prescription Drugs Found ... Possible Drowning [Exclusive Photo Update]](http://ll-media.tmz.com/2012/02/12/0211-hero-whitney2-248x127.jpg)
It's like Motown went to heaven and had a fight. Well, sort of. Lou Rawls, Jr. is suing Marvin Gaye, III over a pretty gruesome attack. Both plaintiff and defendant are sons of the legendary singers.
TMZ obtained a copy of the lawsuit filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court. According to the suit, Marvin Gay, III, owned at least four large dogs. In January, 2005, "the said four large dogs attacked, bit, clawed, and physically and mentally injured the person of the Plaintiff, Lou Rawls, Jr."
According to the suit, Rawls was visiting (Gaye's) property at the time of the alleged attack. The suit claims Rawls suffered "pain, injury, loss of blood, tearing of flesh, multiple dog bite wounds, fear of disease and other and further great and considerable harm, damage, injury and loss."
The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages.
Marvin Gaye, III is a record producer who controls his late father's estate.

the problem with naming your kid "who ever I am, junior" is that a lot people have talent and will never have the chance to fight over money that the daddys made ( not junior-the daddy) and will just be nobody . However, these two nothings could sit back on their asses and spend the money and no one gets hurt, BUT NOOOOO, these two had dads that voices and talent overall will never be matched. I think if Dad Rawls were alive he might tell his son " ok you are hurt, go to the doctor and get stiches and dont play with Gaye, Jr. any more." But both Dads are dead and are rolling in their graves at the childish stupidity of their sons.And the only reason this was news is because of their names. In closing, I repeat, dont make your childs name " who ever I am , junior" Peace and Love " :)
Four dogs of Marvin Gaye III alledegy attacked Lou Rawls Jr.? Man did bite dog.
The only thing better would have been if Snoop Dogg had been one of the the accused biters.
I couldn't care less about this dog thing. But I will take this opportunity to say that Marvin Gaye is my favorite singer of ALL TIME! Does anyone know if the film with Jesse Martin as Marvin is ever going to be finished? What's the status of it?
WOW ! How shocking ! Not this edit but the fact you sh*tfaced dolts could run sh*T like this . Dickheads . What next ? Max Bear jr. versus Jed Clampett III and how about the nerve of Johnny carson Jr. thinking he could fart in the direction of Ed McMahons grandson . Next thing you'll be showing us home movies of your childhood visit to Michigan . Happy Fetivus for the rest of US ! Dickheads .
when will the stupideness stop? or at least slow down
Yep, another reason not to name your kids after yourself. Personally, I'm waiting for George Foreman's sons (all named George) to start suing each other.
the marvin gaye movie with jessie martin has been postponed due to lack of funds. it's only gonna cover his life after motown, b/c the motown a**holes won't license the music from his motown career.
marvin senior hated lou rawls senior anyway, so that seems about right.
