Future, on April 13, hit back at his former fiancee Ciara's 15 million dollar defamation lawsuit by filing a counter lawsuit against her and insulting her "expired" singing career.

The 32-year-old hiphop artist filed documents claiming that he has not damaged her reputation because she did not have a particularly great one to speak of in the recent years, reports Us magazine.

Basically Future called her last album to be a "flop" and even said that she has not won many awards since 2013.

The 'Freak Hoe' rapper further demanded the '1, 2 Step' hit-maker to not only stop defaming him to the press, but also cover the legal fees that he has incurred as a result of her initial lawsuit.

This whole incident came after Ciara, in February, sued Future, seeking 15 million dollar in defamation and slander damages, citing the rapper's past interviews and more recent Twitter rants against her and her fiance, football player Russell Wilson.
